Line 32 ⟶ 33:

:'''King Piccolo''': The greatest prize of all! Eternal youth!

:'''Emperor Pilaf''': Huh?

:'''King Piccolo''': Just think. With eternal youth, I could master time itself. Why would would I want to rule this planet for a lifetime when I could rule it for ''all'' time?

=== Tambourine Attacks! ===

Line 60 ⟶ 61:

:'''Tambourine''': Unlike other lifeforms, humans are worthless. They don't even make good pets.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Goku''': You killed Krillin! H-he was my best friend!

:'''Tambourine''': Right, got it.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Tambourine''': I love my job!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Yamcha''': I didn't think I could hate someone I've never met before, but King Piccolo is an animal! Once I'm finished with him, he'll wish he stayed in that jar!

:'''Bulma''': What's wrong with you? You sound like Goku! This monster is too powerful, you're just going to get killed too!

:'''Yamcha''': The list he took has my name on it, Bulma. I'm not just going to sit around and wait for him to find me!

:'''Oolong''': You're right. He's only after people on the list, I'm safe! No one ever hunts pigs -- we're cute!

:'''Bulma''' ''(yelling)'': no, but you'll end up the main course on a dinner table!

:'''Master Roshi''': No one is safe. King Piccolo's ambition does not allow for bystanders. Should he gain dominion over our world, all will be lost. What his nightmarish flames don't scorch, his legions will devour. There will be no quarter, no haven -- complete genocide.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Oolong''': Oh, I can't believe this is happening to me. Suddenly my whole world's dark!

:'''Launch''': It's happening to all of us, so stuff it!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Piccolo''': Tiny. You sure it's a Dragon Ball?

:'''Tambourine''': Yes. It was exactly where they said it would be.

:'''Pilaf''': Yes! I was right, you see! Do I not offer invaluable counsel?

:'''Piccolo''': You've done well, Pilaf. Once I have all seven of these trinkets, eternal youth will be mine!

:'''Pilaf''': Heh heh, soon we'll all get what we deserve!

:'''Piccolo''': My full power will be restored, and I will once again become invincible!

:'''Pilaf''': Right, and your looks will improve as well!

:'''Piccolo''': Hmm?

:'''Pilaf''': ...Truly hard to imagine, considering how good you look now!

:'''Shu''': You look great!

:'''Mai:''' Model of beauty! ''[giggles]''

:'''Tambourine''': There's more. Here is a list of names of participants in the last Martial Arts Tournaments.

:'''Piccolo:''' Good. Post them on the wall.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Mai''': (holding a poster with Goku's face): Uh, Emperor, I think you need to take a look at this!

:'''Pilaf''': Hmm! Ah, no wonder the little pest was so difficult to defeat! He won second place in the last two martial arts tournaments! A worthy opponent for my skills.

:'''Tambourine''': Don't bother with his picture either!

:'''Pilaf''': Huh?

:'''Tambourine''': What? He was as weak as the first one!

:'''Pilaf''': You... killed Goku?

:'''Tambourine''': If that was his name! It was over so fast there wasn't time for introductions! If the human I fought won second place... sir, these fighters will not pose a significant challenge, I assure you!

:'''Piccolo''': Hmm, that may be, but they could still be the same cunning warriors that drove back my forces and locked me in a jar for decades! We have to be absolutely sure! Hunt them down, all of them, and leave not one of them standing!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Mai''' (to Pilaf): Emperor, I'm beginning to doubt the wisdom of this alliance. He seems unstable.

:'''Shu''': No matter how much swampland he gives us, I don't think this is worth it!

<hr width=55%/>

:''[at King Chappa's temple]''

:'''Tambourine''': Teach ''me''! I'm here for my lesson.

:'''King Chappa''': Who are you?

:'''Tambourine''': King Chappa, is it true that you were once champion of the world martial arts tournament?

:'''King Chappa''': Yes. What do you want of me?

:'''Tambourine''': ''Die''! ''[attacks]''

<hr width=50%/>

:''[Tambourine arrives at a boxing match'']

:'''Announcer''': Uh-oh, an uninvited guest has dropped in on Pamput and by the looks of him I ''doubt'' he is friendly!

:'''Pamput''': Hey you, get down!

:'''Tambourine''': Now, you will die.

:'''Pamput''': Listen, pal, for one thing, get a better costume, I can practically see your zipper. And get off my stage -- I'm the only star here!

=== Mark of the Demon ===

:''['Piano''': (after King Piccolo gives birth to one of his offspring]'') So, does it have a name?

:'''Piano''': So, does it have a name?

:'''King Piccolo''': His name is Cymbal. My child of darkness.

:'''Piano''': A musical instrument. Didn't see that one coming, Piccolo.

Line 147 ⟶ 75:

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Master Roshi''' (slowly): Pale. Pale grey.

:'''Puar''': What? Who is 'Palepale Grey'grey?

:'''Yamcha''': Wait. Is this 'Palepale Grey'grey a great warrior, Mastermaster?

:'''Master Roshi''': No. N-nothing like that. Pale grey is the color of Bulma's panties.

:'''Oolong''': Hm?

:'''Bulma''': Hm? Ah! You were staring at my underwear this whole time!?

:'''Master Roshi''' (frantically): No. I... I started at your knees.

<hr width=50%/>

Line 184 ⟶ 112:

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Yajirobe''': (Upon first seeing Cymbal) That's one ugly bird!

:'''Launch''': That's enough o' that! Don't talk like you're not comin' home. If any of you get splattered, I swear I'll fill you with so many bullets, you'll jump back to life just to beg me for mercy!

Line 231 ⟶ 157:

=== Terrible Tambourine ===

:'''Piccolo''': (telepathically) Cymbal, Cymbal answer me! Cymbal, I command you -- hear my call and respond! Cymbal, where are you? ''[pause, aloud]'' It's over. Cymbal is no more. He's dead.

:'''Emperor Pilaf''': I sympathize with your loss.

:'''Mai''': He seemed like such a nice beast. Aw...

Line 240 ⟶ 166:

:'''Mai''': Exactly. Cymbal means nothing to us.

:'''King Piccolo''': Grrrr!!!!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Tambourine''': Are you, uh, Giran?

:'''Giran''': And what if I am?

:'''Tambourine''': You die.

<hr width=50%/>

Line 271 ⟶ 191:

:'''Yamcha''': That must make you King Piccolo's yes-man.

:'''Tambourine''': Yes. I-I mean... uh well... you don't... you... shut up!

<hr width=50%/>

:''[Tambourine and Piccolo are having a telepathic conversation]''

:'''Tambourine''': Master, everything is proceeding as planned. I have tracked down and exterminated seven already; I'm working on the eighth.

:'''King Piccolo''': That's good news. I wish I had the same. Unfortunately we have a problem. Cymbal was sent to retrieve a Dragon Ball. Along the way, he was destroyed!

:'''Tambourine:''' Destroyed?

:'''King Piccolo''': Our response to this crime must be swift and severe. You are to abandon your current assignment and find the assailant. I want an example made of him. ''Do it slowly''.

=== Tien's Atonement ===

:'''Master Roshi''': What is it you want? Money?

:'''Pirate''': Arr, how about a million zeni?

:'''Master Roshi''': A million?

:'''Tien''': You can't be serious.

:'''Pirate''': Ye heard me, old man! Take it or leave it!

:'''Master Roshi''': You drive a hard bargain. ''[begins rummaging through his wallet']'' Tell you what. I'll give you this. ''[hands the Pirate a slip of paper]''

:'''Pirate''': And what's that?

:'''Master Roshi''': A lottery ticket and a beer coupon. Take it! Treat yourself!

:'''Pirate''': Forget it!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Piccolo''': Grrr! I want him! I'll tear him apart!

:'''Piano''': Master, calm down! You need your strength!

:'''Shu''' (whispering): I'm worried for your safety!

:'''Pilaf''' (whispering): What are you talking about? Remember the nice cooker -- what do you think we got it for?

:'''Mai''' (whispering): Emperor, I've got a bad feeling. What if this doesn't work?

:'''Pilaf''' (whispering): Be patient, Mai, it won't take long!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Tien''': Small world.

Line 361 ⟶ 252:

:'''King Piccolo''': We will turn our immediate attention on finding those responsible for the deaths of Cymbal and Tambourine.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Chiaotzu''': I'm sure we're going to win!

:'''Master Roshi''': I'm afraid the odds of us winning a head-on battle aren't too good. Our best bet is to sneak in through the backdoor, surprise him, and take the ball while he's not looking. Then the Eternal Dragon can defeat him.

:'''Tien''': That's too passive for my tastes, Master! I say we fight him hand to hand, and destroy him!

:'''Master Roshi''': I understand how you feel, Tien, but he's much stronger than you think. With our combined strength, Piccolo still has ''us'' at a disadvantage. Our best bet is to concentrate on bringing all the Dragon Balls back together. Then we'll let the Eternal Dragon exterminate King Piccolo.

:'''Tien''': But Master, I thought our purpose in gathering the Dragon Balls is so we can resuscitate Krillin!

:'''Chiaotzu''': The Eternal Dragon will only make ''one'' wish come true...

:'''Tien''': ...and once the Dragon grants that wish, the balls are scattered again, correct?

:'''Master Roshi''': After one year, we can gather the orbs back together again. At that time, we will revive Krillin, I hope.

:'''Tien''': What about the Containment Wave?

:'''Master Roshi''': (angrily) That's a ridiculous idea, Tien Shinhan!

:'''Tien''': Forgive me, Master, but it worked before. That's what Master Mutaito used to capture Piccolo, wasn't it?

:'''Master Roshi''': In exchange for his life! Besides, there's no guarantee that it would work. If we failed, Yamcha would be the only one left to carry on the fight, and he's in no condition to defeat Piccolo!

:'''Tien''': I understand. (thinking) ''For Master to have such a reaction to my suggestion, there must be more to the Evil Containment Wave that I realized...''

=== Goku vs. King Piccolo ===

:'''Pilaf''': Ah, look at the ground -- there's somebody down there! He must be the one who killed Cymbal and Tambourine. Give me just a moment to land the plane and you can destroy him.

:'''King Piccolo''': No, don't bother. It won't be necessary.

:'''Pilaf''': Huh? ''[looks through the binoculars]'' Aah! No... anyone but ''him''! It's impossible! He's supposed to be dead!

:'''King Piccolo''': Who is it?

:'''Pilaf''': Who else? It's that same brat who always keeps me away from the Dragon Balls! He ''always'' gets in my way! He ruins every one of my plans!

:'''King Piccolo''': So, this little child is responsible for killing Tambourine and Cymbal? ''[chuckles, then roars]'' Both Cymbal and Tambourine fell in disgrace if that little worm had ''anything'' to do with their demise! I am not so weak that I cannot deal with a child...

:'''King Piccolo''': I thought I was looking for a great warrior. And now I find it is you who has killed two of my greatest soldiers. Heh heh.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Goku''': Hey! Are you the ruler of those monsters? One of them killed my friend Krillin and stole my Dragon Ball!

:'''King Piccolo''': That's me. I see you have another Dragon Ball hanging around your neck...

:'''Goku''': I was right about you! Animal! You're just as responsible for Krillin's death?

:'''King Piccolo''': (dryly) Can you forgive me? ''[chuckles]'' You are unbelievable!

:'''Goku''': What's so funny?

:'''King Piccolo''': You are! I thought I was looking for a great warrior. And now I find it is ''you'' who has killed two of my greatest soldiers. Heh heh.

:'''Goku''': That's right. And you're going to follow them. But first, you are going to give me back my grandpa's Dragon Ball.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''King Piccolo''': You poor simpleton. You don't have a single clue who I am, do you? I am the abomination that haunts your nightmares! Soon, you will call me 'Master'!

:'''King Piccolo''': For some reason, every time I meet a martial artist, I have this incredible urge to destroy them. Even one as tiny and pathetic as you! Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh.

:'''Goku''': That's ''not'' going to happen!

:'''King Piccolo''': It never fails. For some reason, every time I meet a martial artist, I have this incredible urge to destroy them. Even one as tiny and pathetic as you! Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh.

:'''Goku''': I might surprise you!

:'''Yajirobe''' (to himself): Bye, Goku! Nice knowing you....

<hr width=50%/>

''[after Goku knocks Piccolo down]''

:'''Pilaf''': That kid's going to win! It's time to get out of here!

:'''Mai''': Aaah! Sire, what are we going to do?

:'''Piano''': Calm down!

:'''Pilaf''': We can't!

:'''Piano''': Did you ''really'' think His Majesty could be beat? He's just getting warmed up!

<hr width=50%/>

Line 431 ⟶ 282:

:'''Goku''': You're tougher than I thought, but it doesn't make any difference, you big meanie! I'm still gonna destroy you!

:'''King Piccolo''': ''[laughs]''Ha! Ha ha ha ha! Your misplaced confidence is refreshingrefereshing.

:'''Goku''': ''[groans]''Ah...uh...

:'''King Piccolo''': Though I find this amusing, you must know:. thereThere is no escape. The only choice left is how you will meet your demise.

:'''Goku''': ''[groans]''Uh...uh...uh...uh...eh...eh... ''No''!

:'''King Piccolo''': ''[chuckles]''Aha ha ha ha! Well, despite your shortcomings, you are a defiant one. It's been a long time since I've seen that kind of spark in someone's eye. I'm fortunate. I'm ''stronger''. Growl, human! ''[laughs maniacally]''

=== Piccolo Closes In ===

:''[after King Piccolo defeats Goku]''

:'''Piano''': (after King Piccolo defeats Goku) Good show, your majesty.

:'''King Piccolo''': Vengeance is most refreshing. It's what keeps up my youthful appearance.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Emperor Pilaf''': Excuse me.

:'''Yajirobe''': I'm sorry things had to end this way, Goku. I'm sorry I couldn't help you. But you will receive a hero's burial.

:'''Piano''': Hm?

:'''Emperor Pilaf''': Eheh heh heh. Heh heh heh heh. Heh. Once rejuvenated, will he be stronger?

:'''Piano''': Yes. What you just witnessed will seem weak by comparison.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Yajirobe''': (after King Piccolo defeats Goku) I'm sorry things had to end this way, Goku. I'm sorry I couldn't help you. But you will receive a hero's burial.

:'''Goku:''' I was no match for him! He defeated me like I was nothing!

:'''Yajirobe''': Don't be so hard on yourself, Goku. No one else could have done any better. King Piccolo isn't your everyday fighter!

:'''Goku:''' Yajirobe, have you ever heard of Korin Tower?

:'''Yajirobe''': Korin Tower? Never heard of it!

:'''Goku:''' I trained there once before. Listen, I have to ask you a big favor. Do you think you could take me to it? My muscles seem kind of stuck, but I think I know who can help me!

:'''Yajirobe''': Sounds like a strange place to find a doctor... Sure. No problem. I'll take you anywhere you want to go, under one condition -- you gotta feed me!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Chiaotzu''': I found it! [holds up the Three Star Dragon Ball]

:'''Master Roshi''': With that one, we have five.

:'''Tien''': That leaves us with only two more balls to get! And we know where one is... with King Piccolo!

:'''Master Roshi''': We had better stay on our guard... [checks the radar] Hmm!

:'''Tien''': What's the matter? Is something wrong?

:'''Master Roshi''': Well, we don't have to worry about finding those two balls. According to the radar, they're together... and heading straight for us!

:'''Tien''': Ugh, that has to be King Piccolo! He means to destroy us!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Pilaf''': -- Your majesty, the other five Dragon Balls are heading straight for us!

:'''King Piccolo''': Heh, how thoughtful of them to deliver my prize! This day has been fruitful. It has seen the end of my enemy and soon I will possess all seven Dragon Balls!

<hr width=50%/>

:''[aboard their jet]''

:'''Master Roshi''': All right, we're on an intercept course.

:'''Tien''' (thinking): That fiend! He's mine!

:'''Master Roshi''': Let me make one thing clear -- we have no chance of defeating King Piccolo with hand-to-hand combat. We must get his Dragon Balls and call upon the Eternal Dragon. It will be the Dragon's privilege to remove Piccolo from this world.

:'''Tien''': Yes sir.

:'''Master Roshi''': Tien, take us down between those two boulders. That's as good a place as any to make our stand!

<hr width=50%/>

Line 483 ⟶ 308:

:'''Yajirobe''': I admire your courage, but it was foolish for you to go up against King Piccolo by yourself.

:'''Goku''': I'm surprised, Yajirobe. You didn't even lend me a hand.

:'''Yajirobe''': Of course I didn't! I like you, Goku... butBut not as much as I like living.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Yajirobe''': -- Just in case you're thinking what I hope you're not, I wouldn't go up against King Piccolo again. It's not wise to push your luck.

:'''Goku''': How well do you know him? Who is he?

:'''Yajirobe''': Like I said, it's just a story I heard as a kid. A terrible tale that gave me nightmares. A long time ago, King Piccolo used his power to try and take over the world. Fortunately, a brave martial artist -- I forget his name -- but he was able to stop the invasion. Or that's the story; I guess we know differently now.

<hr width=50%/>

Line 495 ⟶ 314:

:'''Yajirobe''': What could someone as powerful as King Piccolo possibly ask for?

:'''Goku''': Uh... a better personality?

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Tien''': I take the ugly green guy is King Piccolo! It looks like he just swallowed the Dragon Balls!

:'''Master Roshi''': Maniacal fiend! He's smarter than I remembered! The only option for us now is to knock him over and pump those balls out of his rotten hide! ''[growls]''

:'''Tien''': We have to fight him head on, Master Roshi!

:'''Master Roshi''': That's what he wants us to believe... No, Tien, you stay out of this.

:'''Tien''': No, Master Roshi, I must fight Piccolo!

:'''Master Roshi''': You don't do anything, Tien Shinhan. That's an order.

:'''Tien''': But Master, you can't do this to me! I ''have'' to fight him!

:''[they glare at each other]''

:'''Tien''': Don't tie my hands! ''Please''!

:'''Master Roshi''': I appreciate your concern for my safety, but I've taken steps to protect myself, including a life-sustaining potion.

:'''Tien''': But you can't do it--

:''[Master Roshi sprays him with knockout gas]''

:'''Tien''': Master, you-- aah... [faints]

:'''Master Roshi''': I'm sorry to have to do this, Tien. It's better for you to sleep through this one. Too many lives have been lost already. Your dedication to our cause is admirable, but I must confess -- I didn't take a life-sustaining potion; I never touch the stuff myself! Anyway, if I fail, you'll be the only one left to defeat that monster, but only as a last-ditch effort. Your will is strong, but your training is incomplete. Tell Goku I was proud!

=== Roshi's Gambit ===

:'''Bulma''' (to radio): This is Kame House! Come in, Master Roshi! Please respond! I repeat, Kame House to Master Roshi, please come in, Master Roshi! Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, is ''anybody'' there? If you can hear me, ''please'' say something! Someone answer me!

:'''Oolong''': With that tone, ''I'' wouldn't answer either!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Yamcha''': What could o' happened to them?

:'''Oolong''': It's possible they've been destroyed.

:'''Bulma''': And it's possible you're stupid!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Piano''': Foolish old man -- he must really have a death wish to challenge King Piccolo out in the open like this!

:'''Pilaf''': Why, he doesn't even have any support!

:'''Piano''': He could have an army and he'd ''still'' lose!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''King Piccolo''': Obviously, you have no idea who I am; otherwise, you'd know this path you've chosen is suicide!

:'''Master Roshi''': This isn't the first time we've met, monster.

:'''King Piccolo''': Then you must realize that I will soon send you to oblivion!

:'''Master Roshi''': Yeah, yeah, I've heard ''that'' before. The only one who's going to take a dirt nap is you... unless you decide to play it smart and give me your Dragon Balls!

:'''King Piccolo''': If that was a joke, then I'm still waiting for the punch line! Your humor is wearing thin! You want my Dragon Balls? Then... [regurgitates the Dragon Balls] ...they're all yours!

<hr width=50%/>

Line 547 ⟶ 330:

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Master Roshi''': (to King Piccolo, after the Evil Containment Wave has failed to trap the demon in the jar) You haven't won. Your dark dreams will never come true. Somehow, someone will succeed where I've failed. Until that day, live in fear. You will fall. We're only human but... but we will survive. We will survive. (Master Roshi falls and dies)

:'''Master Roshi''': I have no interest in fighting you! You're right, I'm no match for you. You possess powers far greater than my own! But for every obstacle there is a solution -- I can still defeat you!

:'''Chiaotzu''': No!

:'''Tien''': Master, don't do it! You mustn't!

:'''King Piccolo''': What are you blabbering about?

:'''Master Roshi''': You know what I'm talking about all too well! I told you -- this wasn't the first time we met! Many years ago, I faced you in battle! I was there the day my master stared you down -- the day you blinked!

:'''King Piccolo''': Go on!

:'''Master Roshi''': Do you want to know my master's name? [pause] It's Mutaito!

:''[Piccolo trembles in fear]''

:'''King Piccolo''': (thinking) Not again! Aaaah!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Master Roshi''': Here you go! This should jog your memory! ''[reveals an electronic jar]''

:'''King Piccolo''' (terrified): ''The electronic jar!''

:'''Master Roshi''': Home sweet home!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Pilaf''': That's strange. Why is King Piccolo shaking? Is he cold?

:'''Piano''' (sadly): Poor Majesty... he's frightened! Piccolo!

<hr width=50%/>

:''[the Evil Containment Wave fails to trap Piccolo]''

:'''Master Roshi''': You haven't won. Your dark dreams will never come true. Somehow, someone will succeed where I've failed. Until that day, live in fear. You will fall. We're only human but... but we will survive. We will survive. ''[Master Roshi falls and dies]''

<hr width=50%/>

:'''King Piccolo''': Yes, he's dead! The fool's dead! ''[laughs maniacally]''

:''[Mai, Pilaf, Shu, and Piano join in laughing]''

:'''Shu''': Incredible!

:'''King Piccolo''': That was too close! I never expected he would know about the Evil Containment Wave! The old man was sly, but now he's gone forever! I'm free -- truly free! No one on this pathetic planet will harm me ever again! ''[laughs maniacally, then stops abruptly]'' - it's time. ''[telekinetically lifts up all the Dragon Balls and throws them onto the ground]''

:'''King Piccolo''': The seven Dragon Balls are mine! At last, I will reclaim my youth and with it, all my glory of power!

Line 588 ⟶ 343:

=== King Piccolo's Wish ===

:'''King Piccolo''': (after Chiaotzu tries to interfere and gets killed by King Piccolo) I despise uninvited guests!

:'''Tien''': (telepathically) Chiaotzu! Can you hear me?

:'''Chiaotzu''': Tien Shinhan!

:'''Tien''': We have to do something about this! Now I want you listen to me very carefully. I'm losing consciousness because of that strange medicine Master Roshi gave me. This is up to you! Before Piccolo can make his wish, I want you to make your own: tell the Dragon that you wish that King Piccolo would disappear from this world forever!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Shenron''': I will grant one wish. Tell me what it is you desire.

:'''King Piccolo''': At last.. I--I wish for--

:''[Chiaotzu emerges]''

:'''Chiaotzu''' (quickly): Make King Piccolo disappear, from this--

:''[Piccolo blasts him to death]''

:'''King Piccolo''': I despise uninvited guests!

:'''Shenron''': What do you wish for?

:'''King Piccolo''': I wish to be made young again. Restore my youth and power! Return to me what time has stolen! Can you do this?

Line 608 ⟶ 352:

:'''Yajirobe''': (about Korin) This is a friend of yours? He doesn't sound nice to me. He's not going to try and eat us for breaktice, is he?

:'''Goku''': Eheh heh heh heh. You're funny, Yajirobe.

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Shu''': Congratulations, Sire! You did it!

:'''Mai''': I'm looking for the day King Piccolo conquers the world. Then he'll...

:'''Shu''': ...be so grateful he'll give you that swampland you wanted!

:''[Pilaf laughs nervously]''

<hr width=50%/>

:'''King Piccolo''': It's time to get down to business. This world will soon be now!

:'''Pilaf''': Yes! The world will soon be under our control!

:'''King Piccolo''': Full speed ahead! Take me to the King's castle!

:'''Pilaf''': I don't think the direct approach is the best way to handle this!

:'''King Piccolo''': Hmph? Do my tactics trouble you?

:'''Pilaf''': Of course not, you have ''great'' tactics! It's just that this castle we're going to has some impressive weapons, and I thought maybe we should get an... upgrade...?

:''[Piccolo growls]''

:'''Pilaf''': No, wait, scratch that! We don't need an upgrade! Our current systems should do just fine!

:'''Piano''': You foolish twerp! Now that King Piccolo has regained his youth, no weapon on the planet can destroy him!

:'''Pilaf''': Yes, I see.. Well, no sense in hanging around here any longer. We've got a castle to conquer!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Villager #1''': Sire, I beg of you, please help my village! This drought has lasted for six months!

:'''Villager #2''': There isn't enough water for drinking, let alone to grow our crops! We can't last much longer!

:'''King Furry''': I understand your needs. I will help!

:'''Villager #1''': Sire, you mean...?

:'''King Furry''': I will send the Aqua Squad to your aid immediately!

:'''Villager''' #2: Thank you, Sire!

:'''Emperor Pilaf''': Oh, yes. I... ''[chuckles]''heh heh heh heh heh...

:'''King Piccolo''': My reign over this planet is close at hand. With my ascension, I shall create a magnificent kingdom in my own image! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha! However, before I can rebuild, I must first tear down!

:'''Yamcha''': No, it's too dangerous!

:'''Tien''': I must destroy that monster! No matter the cost. It's why I was spared.

:'''Yamcha''': You can't go alone! I'll learn it with you!

:'''Korin''': That's right. This water... is most certainly divine!

:'''Goku''': But Master Korin, how is it any different from the Sacred Water I drank a long time ago?

:'''Korin''': Actually, there is a huge difference. You see, Sacred Water is merely water with a kick. No magic in it. Ha! But ''Ultra Divine Water'' is packed with mystical properties and a magical zing!

:'''Goku''': Whoa! If I drink Ultra Divine Water, then I'll be super-strong!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Korin''': The water would increase your abilities, that's true. But to enjoy its benefits, you would first have to track it down...

:'''Goku''': Huh?

:'''Korin''': It is a perilous journey. Far to the north, there is a treacherous maze of ice. To obtain the water, you must first navigate through this icy labyrinth. The liquid is hidden somewhere in the cave.

:'''Goku''': A maze?

:'''Korin''': It's a complicated network of passageways, with many confusing routes to choose from, but only one exit. It's easy enough to get in; the trick is getting ''out''. Once inside the labyrinth, it's easy to get lost. You could find yourself wandering aimlessly for weeks, or even years. Many brave explorers have attempted to navigate this path, only never to be heard from again!

:'''Goku''': Don't worry, I've never feared the dark before!

:'''Yamcha''': Lousy monster! Who does he think he is!?

:'''King Piccolo''': Get ready as I unleash the most glorious terror imaginable.

:'''Oolong''': Is he serious?

:'''King Piccolo''': No need to worry, however. I've taken care of all the arrangements. I know that all of you share my enthusiasm... Because it is a privilege and honor to be a part of this event. You're gonna love this. Your planet... heh... my planet... is divided into forty-three sectors. Each is represented by a slip of paper which has been placed in this box. To commemorate the anniversary of my rule, I declare this day, May thirteenth, as Piccolo day. As part of this annual celebration, I'll draw a slip from the box each year. And guess what, folks? There's more. Heh heh. The chosen sector will host that year's celebration, which will culminate in its destruction and I will do the honors.

:'''King Furry''': No! You wouldn't!

:'''King Piccolo''': I am not without mercy. The sector's annihilation will be instantaneous! There will hardly be time to feel any pain.

:'''King Furry''': That's horrific! Why would you do something so cruel!?

:'''King Piccolo''': Heh! It's nothing new. This world celebrates occasions with explosions in the sky. Mine are just a little more dangerous. Besides, I can't wait to see the terror on people's faces! And after all, it is my celebration! Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha!

:'''Yamcha''': That maniac!

:'''Launch''': He's an a-one sicko!

:'''King Piccolo''': Please... don't worry. This is meant to be happy fun time. The drawing will only be held once a year. That means if you're lucky... some of you may live another forty-three years! Aha ha ha! Or not! Ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha!

:'''Bulma''': Forty-three years? Oh, how generous! I'd rather be destroyed now than have to live my life in fear!

:'''King Piccolo''': But seriously, I wish to maintain an open dialogue with my subjects. So, if, for any reason, you're displeased with my plan or any of my policies, please feel free to pay me a visit. My door is always open. Tell me what's on your tiny little minds, I'm here for you. And once you've unloaded all of your emotional baggage, I promise to remove your troubles... permanently!

<hr width=50%/>

:'''Korin''': The outcome rests in the hands of fate. Goku has the necessary skills. However, that's not always enough.

:'''Goku''': I sense it. I feel it. I'm not what I was before. And it's not just the strength too - I feel power ''and'' at peace. With... with ''everything''!

:'''Yajirobe''': That doesn't fill me with confidence. Anyway, at a time like this, I'd rather be filled with food. I'm gonna stuff my belly with everything I can fit into it!

:'''Korin''' (thinking): I suspected he would survive, but I didn't think about what it would mean? Could he be... the 'one'?

:'''Yajirobe''': Are you sure? You sure ''look'' the same!

:'''Goku''': And there's something else. ''[pause]'' I know where Piccolo is!

:'''Korin''':And how do you know ''that'', Goku?
