Emperor Pilaf Saga
Son Goku, a monkey tailed boy in the mountains of Mt. Paozu who is searching of the seven mystical objects, the Dragon Balls by a girl named Bulma. They are the seven orange spheres who has the ability to grant one wish from a dragon named, Shenlong. They meet various people like Kame-sennin, who gives him a Kinto-Un and masters the Kamehameha Wave. As well, he fought the shape-shifters Puar, Oolong, and the desert bandit Yamcha. The next one is on Mt. Frypan where Gyuumao and his daughter, Chi-Chi lives.
The Mt. Frypan was burnt out by the Kamehameha Wave, and fought Boss Rabbit before Emperor Pilaf and his men stole the Dragon Balls from them, calling forth Shenlong, wishing for a "girl's panties" instead by Oolong. Locked in Pilaf's dungeon, Goku tells a story about his Grandpa Gohan, looks into a full moon, and transforms into a deadly, ape-like, giant creature known as the Oozaru. He wreaked havoc on Pilaf's castle but Puar changes himself into a pair of scissors, cutting his tail off, and restores him to normal. After he woke up wearing Oolong's overalls, he sets off to the Kame House for the preparation of the 21st Tenkaichi Budokai.
