Akira Toriyama's groundbreaking, iconic, best-selling series now in an
omnibus edition!
Dragon Ball introduces a young monkey-tailed boy named Goku (a wry
update of the classic Chinese "Monkey King" legend), whose quiet life
changes when he meets a girl named Bulma who is on a quest to collect
seven "Dragon Balls." If she gathers them all, an incredibly powerful
dragon will appear and grant her one wish. But the precious orbs are
scattered all over the world, and Bulma could use the help of a certain
super-strong boy...
Turtle vs. Crane
The next Tenka'ichi Budokai martial art tournament is just around the
corner, and an eager Son Goku can't wait to face even tougher fighters
for the "Strongest Under the Heavens" title! Among the contestants
include pipsqueak Chaozu and three-eyed Tenshinhan, deadly disciples of
Tsuru-Sen'nin, the Crane Hermit!
As it turns out, Tsuru-Sen'nin is an old rival of Goku's teacher
Kame-sen'nin (also known as the Turtle hemit). What's worse,
Tsuru-Sen'nin orders Chaozu and Tenshinhan to kill the Kame Sen'nin
disciples! Will crane-style kung fu beat out turtle style? As these two
martial arts schools duke it out in the tournament ring, things just
might turn fatal!
