Dragonball Baba's Fighters/Henchmen

Goku & friends are unable to find the last Dragon Ball because it is not showing up on the Dragon Radar. Roshi suggests to see his sister Fortuneteller Baba. When they arrive at Baba's place they find out that in order to have their fortune read they have to pay a lot of money or fight and win against Baba's five fighters. None of them has enough money so they decided to take their chances and fight.

» Fighter 1: Dracula Man - This kickboxing vampire first fights Krillin and manages to suck Krillin's blood. Krillin breaks free but loses by ring out. Dracula next fights Puar & Upa. They don't seem to stand a chance until Upa eats a bunch of garlic & starts breathing on Dracula Man. He fights back by trying to bite Puar. Puar turns into a porcupine seconds before and Dracula Man gets a mouth full of needles. Upa gets into a stance that resembles a cross. This freaks Dracula Man out so he turns into a bat and tries to escape. Puar quickly turns into a giant hand a slaps Dracula Man out of the ring.

» Fighter 2: Invisible Man - Yamcha volunteers to fight next & is surprised to learn that his opponent is an invisible man. Because he can't see him, Yamcha spends most of this fight getting slapped around. Seeing his friend in need, Krillin sends Goku off on nimbus to get Master Roshi and a can of tomato soup. When Goku returns Master Roshi throws the tomato soup onto the invisible man, making him visible! Now that Yamcha can see him, Invisible Man is easily defeated.

» Fighter 3: Mummy Man - Baba now brings the group into her castle to get to the next arena, the Devil's Cauldron! This arena is 2 statue's tongues pointing together making a platform to fight on. Fall off & you fall into instant death soup. This mummy makes quick work of Yamcha & throws him off the arena. Yamcha is nearly killed but saved by Goku's power pole. Goku decides to take his chances and fight next. It quickly becomes clear that Goku is too fast for the mummy. So the mummy uses his wrappings to tie up Goku and squeeze him. Unable to break free, Goku jumps over the side of the platform & uses the soup to melt the bandages. Once free, Goku attacks. With 1 hit Goku knocks the Mummy unconscious. Goku wins.

» Fighter 4: Devil Man - Baba introduces the next opponent, a guy in a devil suit named Akuman. Goku quickly beats on him, forcing him to use his special attack, the Devilmite Beams! The Devilmite Beams use the opponent's own negative energy against them to destroy them. We all know as fans, that it's a waste of time because Goku is pure of heart (which is why he can ride the nimbus), so the attack fails and Goku defeats another one of her goons.

» Fighter 5: Gohan - The final opponent is an old dead guy wearing a bunny mask over his face. As the fight begins, their styles appear to be very similar. The old guy even uses the Kamehameha at one point! The fight continues until the old guy grabs Goku's tail, paralyzing the young warrior. Finally Goku's tail breaks off from all the stress. Now that Goku has lost his only weakness, he prepares to fight, but Gohan forfeits! That's when Goku figures out that it's in fact his dead grandpa.

With all five warriors defeated, Baba reads the gang's fortune and locates the dragon ball. It's in a car heading away from their direction. Goku immediately hops on nimbus and sets out after it. When he arrives we find out that it's Emperor Pilaf who was using an anti-radar box to hide the dragon ball. He also has some power suits to fight Goku with and knows of his weakness. When the fight starts, Goku outmatches them and when they go for his tail, they're surprised to find that it's been ripped off! Goku quickly disposes of them and gets the dragon ball from them.

With all seven dragon balls collected, Goku heads back to Baba's place to pick up Upa. They go back to the Land of Korin and awaken the dragon. Upa gives his wish and his father is brought back to life. The two reunite and say goodbye to Goku as he heads back to Baba's palace, but not before catching the four-star ball before it's tossed away.

Back at Baba's, Goku talks with Roshi about the upcoming tournament. Roshi reveals that he has nothing left to teach the boy and that he will start training Yamcha. Goku is to wander the world and let life do the training for the next three years, but he can't use nimbus to travel. They're going to meet up at the next world martial arts tournament. Goku says his goodbyes and starts off on his training.
