During this series, Son Goku goes under training with Muten-Roshi
(kamesennin), later Krillin joins Son Goku in training. Muten-Roshi
teaches Son Goku and Krillin the dreaded Kamehameha. Later Son Goku gets
trained again by Karin in his high tower, but this time his training was
used to defeat Dr. Gero and to defeat Tao Pai Pai, a professional murderer
that has killed one of Goku's new friends. After all this training Goku,
Krillin, and Bulma, get together to get the Dragon Balls and Goku finally
destroys the whole Red Ribbon head-quarters on his own.
Piccolo Saga:
The series starts of as Son Goku enters the Tenkaichi-budokai. During this tournament Son Goku meets Tien and Choazu. The final match is between Son Goku and Tien, Son Goku loses in this battle. (Due to an unfair but cool ending! Goku and Tien are falling in the air and the first one to fall is the loser! So they are too tired to do anything about falling. So Goku
hits a truck, and falls quicker than Tien.) After the battle Krillin is murdered, Son Goku starts looking for the killer. Meantime Piccolo-Diamoho is causing terror around the world. In a battle with Piccolo-Diamoho, Tien is about to die, when suddenly Son Goku arrives and defeats
Piccolo-Diamoho. Before Piccolo-Daimoho dies he gives birth. Knowing that Piccolo-Damioho gave birth Kamesama trains Goku. At the next tournament Son Goku battles Piccolo-Damioho and defeats him, sparing his life at the end. At the end of the series Son Goku marries Chi-Chi. (Before they got married, the castle of Chi-Chi's father, was surrounded with flames,due to this, they had to go under, and fix the pot, because there was a crack in it.)
Vegeta Saga:
This was the beginning of Dragon Ball Z. We first saw someone leaping from
tree to tree in the forest. It was Son Goku, getting wood (actually a
whole tree) for his wife, Chi-Chi, to cook. Chi-Chi asked Goku where Gohan
was. Goku did not know so he went searching for him. Meanwhile, a circular
spaceship crashed onto Earth. A curious farmer looked for the space pod.
As the pod opened up, a large stranger, with an appearance similar to Goku
but with more hair and strength, emerged. The scared farmer took his gun
and shot him, but the alien reflected the bullet back at the farmer,
killing him. The alien flew and shouted out, "KAKAROTTO!!!"
A little child with a strange hat that held the 4-star dragon ball was
lost in the forest. Meet Son Gohan, Goku's son. After meeting a
tiger/puma, who later became his friend, he finally fell down a river on a
log, shouting "DAD." Goku finally heard his screams and saved him. Goku
and Gohan flew to Kame-House to meet Krillin, Kamesennin, Bulma, and the
Turtle. Suddenly, the alien arrived. He told Goku he was his brother and
told him his Saiya-jin origin. (Note: A previous head injury caused Goku
to lost his Saiya-jin memory.) The alien, Raditz, told him to bring 100
dead bodies by the next day or Gohan would be lost to him. Piccolo arrived
suddenly, told him of his encounter with Raditz, and agreed to team up
with him. Because Raditz was very strong, they would have to fight
together to win.
Goku and Piccolo finally found Raditz, and the battle had begun. During
the battle, Piccolo lost a limb, and Goku was seriously injured. An
enraged Gohan broke out of Raditz's spacepod, which he was trapped in, and
attacked Raditz. During Raditz's weaken state, Goku was able to hold him
until Piccolo executed his secret attack, "MAKANKOUSAPPO." Both Raditz and
Goku was killed by the sudden attack. Before Raditz died, he told Piccolo
that two stronger Saiya-jins will arrive in one year. Piccolo took Gohan
to train with him because he knew that Gohan had great power.
Goku was now in heaven. He was allowed to travel through Serpent Road to
Kaiou's planet to train, but he would go to HELL if he fell off. After
running continuously, he got tired but was able to get a ride from a guy
that was cleaning Snake Way. When the driver/cleaner was sleeping, Goku
fell from the car to HELL. In order to reenter Snake Way, Goku raced two
ogres. When he successfully left HELL, he had to run through Snake Way all
over again but was able to regain his strength with an King Yamma's apple.
After escaping from Princess Snake, he finally reached Kaiou's planet.
Piccolo left Gohan in a desert alone for six months for survival training.
Piccolo later returned and started training him.
On Kaiou's planet, Goku learned to live under a gravity ten times stronger
than Earth's and also learned the Kaioken and Genki-Dama's techniques.
(Note: The Genki Dama drew ki energy from everybody on Earth and even the
universe. It had been effective many times for Goku during combats.)
Krillin, Tien, Yamcha, and Chaozu trained with Kami-sama throughout the
year.
The Saiya-jins finally arrived, destroyed a city, and found Gohan and
Piccolo. They wanted to kill Raditz's murderers and to get the dragon
balls to wish for immortality. Yamchu got killed when one of Nappa's
Saiba-men self-destructed. Chaozu and Tien sacrificed their lives to kill
Nappa but failed. Piccolo died defending Gohan, a very emotional scene.
During the moment, Goku was wished back by the dragon balls and ran
rapidly through Snake Way back to Earth.
Luckily, Goku finally arrived to save Gohan and Krillin by using Kaioken.
Vegeta became angry of Nappa's attempts to kill Goku and shouted "SHI NE,"
destroying him. The battle between Goku and Vegeta began. Vegeta gained an
advantage by creating an artificial moon and transformed into Oozaru form
but lost his ability when Yajirobe cowardly cut off his tail with a sword.
(Note: The tail allows a Saiya-jin to transform into a giant monkey called
Oozaru when a full moon appears. The transformation will be reversed if
either the moon disappears or the tail is cut.) Goku was seriously injured
while fighting Vegeta and handed his Genki Dama to Krillin, who then
weakened Vegeta with it. Finally, Gohan turned into Oozaru and started
beating up Vegeta. With his last amount of strength, Vegeta escaped back
in his spacepod.
Bulma and the others arrived to pick up Goku, Krillin, Gohan, and the
bodies of their dead companions. Because of Piccolo's death, Kami also
died unfortunately. Without Kami, the dragon balls were not able to exist.
Krillin stated that he heard Vegeta saying that Piccolo came from the
planet Namek. By using Kami's spaceship, Bulma, Krillin, and Gohan
traveled to Namek, hoping that there would be more powerful dragon balls
to revive their friends
Frieza Saga:
The battle with Vegeta and Nappa was finally over, but Krillin, Bulma, and
Gohan must now go to Planet Namek, Piccolo's and Kami's home planet, to
obtain another set of dragon balls to wish their allies back. Goku was
injured from the battle and was uncapable to go, but Krillin, Bulma, and
Gohan were able to obtain the spaceship Kami used to arrive to Earth.
The journey was two months long and was filled with dangers, including the
Space Ark Children, Raachi and Zaakro (with their abilities to create
illusions), and finally Frieza! Frieza was the most powerful being in the
universe, who had to undergo throught four forms to achieve his real
power. After listening to the message from the dying Raditz in the Vegeta
Saga, he learned about the dragon balls and decided to pursue them himself
to gain immortality. After being healed by a senzu bean, Goku set off for
Namek in a specially designed spaceship, training hard in 100 times
gravity. Meanwhile, Piccolo, Yamcha, Tien, and Chaozu served as Kaiou's
pupils. Vegeta was also healed and stronger than ever, heading for Namek
for the dragon balls and the hatred for Goku in his black heart. Vegeta
was able to kill Dodoria, Kiwi, and Zarbon, becoming stronger after every
battle.
Frieza killed all the Namekians except Nail, Dende, and Saichoro while
Vegeta captured all the seven dragon balls (with six from Frieza and one
from Krillin, Bulma, and Bulma). As a desperate measure, Frieza summoned
Team Ginyu, a team of five strong fighters. Even with their ki increased
by Saichoro and with Vegeta assisting them, Krillin and Gohan were losing
to the Ginyu Team, allowing them to take the dragon balls to Frieza.
Frieza was unable to activate the dragon balls and flew to Saichoro to
seek out the answer. Luckily, Goku arrived to defeat Recoom, Recoom, and
Jess, allowing Vegeta to kill them, including Guldo. Vegeta wondered if
Goku was the legendary Super Saiya-jin. Ginyu knew he could not surpass
Goku's power so he switched bodies with Goku. The battle concluded with
Goku returning to his own body and Ginyu trapped in a frog's body.
Gohan, Krillin, and Dende were able to obtain the dragon balls from Frieza
to revive Piccolo and to bring him to Namek. (Note: Unlike Shen-long,
Porunga could grant the user three wishes.) Frieza killed Saichoro and
injured Nail, interrupting Porunga from granting the third wish (which was
to grant Vegeta immortality). An angered Frieza hurted Krillin and Gohan,
but Dende had the ability to heal them. Frieza tranformed into his second
form, but Piccolo merged with Nail and started beating Frieza. Frieza
transfomed to his third form while Goku was recovering in Frieza's ship
from the battle with Ginyu.
After undergoing his transformation to his fourth and final form, Frieza
killed Vegeta for stating about the Super Saiya-jin to Goku. (Note: Frieza
feared the Super Saiya-jin legend.) Goku executed a Genki Dama desperately
at Frieza, but an injured Frieza killed Krillin out of rage. This
triggered the anger Goku to transform to a Super Saiya-jin. An intense
battle has developed, risking the destruction of Namek. Super Saiya-jin
Goku was defeating Frieza, becoming stronger every minute. With his last
strength, Frieza triggered the planet to blow up in five minutes and threw
Kienzan-like fireballs at him but accidentally got cut in the process.
Goku gave Frieza some of his energy to save his live and to fight more but
had to kill him rapidly and escape. Goku tried to start Frieza's spaceship
but failed as the planet exploded.
Bulma, Piccolo, Gohan, Vegeta, and the Namekians traveled back to earth
with the Namek dragon balls. (Note: The Namekians were revived with the
Earth dragon balls. Porunga revived Krillin but was unable to revive Goku.
It seemed that Goku survived the explosion and was training on another
planet, learning the Shunkanidou in the process. Vegeta decided to train
in space, and everything was safe on Earth for now.
One year later Frieza is put back together in a robotic form by his
father, King Cold. They arrive on Earth with an army, all hope is lost by
the Z warriors, even Vegeta thinks so when he was revived by the
DragonBalls. Suddenly, a teenager comes out of nowhere, beats the stuff
out of Frieza. Not only that, he is a Saiyan! Turing Super Saiyan, he
kills Frieza and King Cold with his sword easily. All he says is that he
is waiting for Son Goku, then Son Goku appears out of nowhere. Son Goku
tells of his troubles and also demonstrates his new teleportation
technique. The teenager says that his name is Trunks. He is also the son
of Bulma and Vegeta! He is from the future and comes back in time to warn
the Z warriors of androids that will terrorize the world in three years.
Trunks also says that Son Goku will die from a heart disease. Trunks
though has brought medicine for him. Trunks says that he will come back in
three years to fight the androids. Now the Z warriors must train for the
androids arriving in three years.
Cell Game Saga:
Three years passed since Trunks' arrival. A lot has changed since then,
Trunks from the future is now called Miari Trunks since Chibi Trunks is
born, and Vegeta joins the Z warriors, but having the same attitude. Miari
Trunks arrives from the future to find that there is another android,
Android #16. The androids in Miari Trunks' timeline are #17 and #18. Also
the creator, Dr. Gero, turns himself into Android #20. He is easily
defeated by Vegeta who learns how to turn Super Saiyan during his
training. Right before he dies, he issues the final command for Android
#22 (Cell).
Cell is made of single cells from the strongest warriors in the univerese.
Cell breaks out of his test tube and seeks to absorb #17 and #18. When
Cell finally absorbs the androids, he turns into Perfect Cell. No one can
offer a challange so he starts thinking of all the fights as games (Thus
somes the title, Cell Game). Cell later announces that he will hold a
tournament to the warriors that think they can defeat him. The tournament
begins. First, a fighter from Earth, who is really a coward that takes all
the credit and is really weak, Mr. Satan. He gets defeated easily by on
slap from Cell. Then, Son Goku fights with Cell, the battle ends with the
winner Son Goku. But Cell gets so mad that he self-destructs to blow up
the whole Solar System. Goku quickly teleports the both of them to a safe
distance, Kaiosama's Planet. Both Kaiosama and Goku die.
Everyone was sad, but the battle wasn't over yet, Cell somehow regenerated
from just one cell from his body, and decides to take Gohan as his next
challenger. He tries to piss off Gohan so that he will be more
challenging. The plan works when he creates seven Baby Cells who kills his
friends. And he kills Miari Trunks with a surpise attack. Gohan gets
pushed off the edge and powers up and reaches SSJ2, then Cell realizes
that he overdid it. Gohan defeats the Baby Cells with just one kick to
each of them. Son Gohan starts to attack Cell. As the battle goes on,
Gohan's right arm gets crippled. He creates a Kamehameha, Cell than
creates his own Kamehameha. The stalemate is broken only with the
encouragement of his dead father. Son Gohan overpowers Cell and kills him
with only one arm! Everyone is wished back to life except Son Goku because
he was already wished back to life once. But Goku was proud of his son and
watched over him in the heavens, while King Kaiosama kept on yelling at
Goku for bringing Cell to his planet. Miari Trunks later returns to his
own time.
Buu Saga:
Seven years pass since the Cell Game. Krillin marries #18 (who was wished
to human by the DragonBalls) and has a daughter named Marron. Chi-Chi has
a seconded son named Son Goten, Son Goten and Trunks (Chibi) turned SSJ at
an early age. Son Gohan has a girl friend named Videl, the daughter of
Satan (Satan takes all the credit for killing Cell, this got him really
famous ), Son Gohan is also a superhero named The Great SaiyanMan. During
The Tenkaichu-Boudoukai, Son Goku is granted a single day of life to meet
with Gohan, Goten, Trunks, Chi-Chi, and all the Z warriors, including
Vegeta. Two of Buu's slaves steal Son Gohan's energy, then a man named
Kaiosen revives Son Gohan, he than tells of a evil demon named Buu trying
to destroy the Earth. If Buu's slaves gather enougth energy, he will be
revived.
Vegeta learning that he can become stronger by turning into Buu's slave,
Vegeta turns evil again, this time he is Majin Vegeta and can turn to
SSJ2. This gives Buu enough energy to be revived. Goku then learns to turn
to SSJ2 and fights him and convinces him that good always triumphs over
evil. Vegeta finally realizes and self-destructs in hope to kill Buu. Son
Goku than heads to battle against Buu. Son Goku than turns SSJ2, and SSJ3!
But he still can't defeat Buu. Later, Son Gohan heads to the Kaiosen's
planet for training.
Then before Son Goku's time is up on Earth, he teaches Son Goten and
Trunks the fusion technique, then they get trained by Piccolo so they can
be strong enougth to beat Buu. Soon-after, Son Goten and Trunks fuse to
become Gotenks, later Gotenks turns SSJ1, and then, SSJ3! But Buu has made
a twin of himself, but he is a lot more evil than Buu, he even absorbed
Buu and thus turned him into Super Buu. Gotenks is defeating Super Buu,
but Gotenks is an inexperienced and careless fighter. Buu absorbs Gotenks
and becomes a lot stronger, then absorbs Piccolo. Dia Kaoiusin then
sacrifices his life so Son Goku can live. Goku then gets a pair of Potara
Earrings for fusion, this way the fused person won't diffuse in 30 min.
Son Goku now alive teleports to the battle. Then King Yama grants Vegeta
life to fight Buu. When Son Goku arrives to the scene he tells Son Gohan
to fuse with him, Son Goku than throws a fusion earring at Son Gohan. Son
Gohan drops the earring and Buu absorbs Son Gohan, thus turning himself
into Ultimate Buu. Then Vegeta comes to the scene. Vegeta then fuses with
Son Goku to become, Vegetto. Vegetto defeats Buu but purposely gets
absorbed to rescue their friends. This somehow wears off the permenent
fusion. They rescue Son Goten, Son Gohan, Trunks, Piccolo, and Fat Buu
through Ultimate Buu's pores. All of the energy that Buu has taken
restores him back to his normal form, Majin Buu. Then he destroys the
Earth.
Kaoiu-sin teleports to help Son Goku teleport Vegeta, Satan, his dog, and
Dende to Kaoiu-sin's planet. Vegeta gets angry because he rescued them
instead of his son and the rest of the Z fighters. Son Goku was
speechless. But there wasn't any time for that, Majin Buu also teleports
to the planet Goku's on, and starts to fight. Then Son Goku starts to get
beaten up badly. Vegeta jumps into battle so Son Goku can create a
Genki-Dami. The Namek dragon balls are gathered to wish back the Earth and
to wish back everyone killed by Buu. The third wish is stored for later
use. Son Goku's Genki-Dami (Energy given by the Nameks, the people in the
Heavens, and everyone on Earth) is ready to throw, Son Goku throws it, and
Buu pushes it back. Vegeta tells Dende to wish back all of Son Goku's
strength back. Now with all his strength restored Son Goku, he throws back
the Genki- Dami at Buu. Buu can't counter it any longer, so he is killed.
Ten years after the battle against Majin Buu, Fat Buu is revived into a
cleansed form called Uboo. Son Goku decides to train him since he has
great potential. Son Gohan and Vidal get married and have a daughter named
Pan. This concludes DragonBall Z.
Baby Saga:
Ten years after the end of DragonBall Z, Son Goku gets turned into a child
again by a wish Pilaf made. The only way Son Goku can get back in his
normal state is by finding the Black Star DragonBalls scattered across
space. Son Goku, Pan, and Trunks go on journeys battling minor villans. At
one planet, the DragonBall gang stumbles across Baby. Baby sneaks on board
and lands on Earth. Baby takes over bodies in hope of finding a good host.
Baby first uses Goten and Gohan as hosts, but he finally finds the most
powerful host, it is Vegeta! Vegeta now turns into Baby-Vegeta. A great
battle between Son Goku and Vegeta begins. It turns out Son Goku is no
match for Baby-Vegeta. Then Kaiousin pulls out Son Goku's tail, hoping he
can go into Oozaru stage. It works, but Son Goku still cannot defeat
Bebi-Vegeta, who now is Super Bebi (Oozaru Bebi-Vegeta). Then something
weird happens, Son Goku takes control of his body now and transforms into
SSJ4 Son Goku! Son Goku soon defeats Super Bebi. (Note: Babi-Vegeta can
also turn to SSJ4).
Super A 17 & Evil Shenlong Sagas:
In hell, Dr. Gero and Myuu creates Artifical 17. Artifical 17 comes from
Hell to fuse with Android #17, when they fused, they became Super 17. Son
Goku gets tricked into going to hell to fight Cell and Frieza, who was
already dead. Without Son Goku, the earth is doomed. Piccolo, (who died in
the Baby Saga) and Dende creates a portal so Son Goku can get out of hell.
Son Goku later kills Super 17. When the DragonBalls are gathered to wish
back the people killed in battle something goes wrong. Shenlong says that
with all the negative energy the DragonBalls have restored, seven evil
dragons have been formed. Each dragon possess a DragonBall, so Son Goku
and the Z fighters go off to fight the evil dragons. When they come up
agains Li, SSJ4 Son Goku fuses with... SSJ4 Vegeta! Making SSJ4 Gogeta. He
beats the stuff out of him with ease. But Gogeta's fusion span was
shortened because of the 4th stage of Super Saiyan. They can only stay
fused for 20 min instead of 30 min. Just when Gogeta was about to finish
Li, he diffuses. But the 2 warriors eventually killed the worn out Li.
When all seven dragons have been defeated, the real Shenlong appears and
grants Son Goku one wish, the wish is that everyone killed in battle
against the dragons to be brought back to life. Shenlong tells Son Goku to
get on his back, then the seven dragonballs are absorbed into Son Goku,
and his whole body vanishes, leaving only his clothe on the ground. Seems
that Son Goku is the most powerful fighter in the universe to have the
DragonBalls absorbed.
