[NARRATOR] Previously on Dragon Ball Z...

With his father's help, Gohan was able to tap

into his deepest powers

and finally destroy the monstrous Cell.

[NARRATOR] After years of turmoil caused by

Dr. Gero's Androids, the Earth was brought back to normal...

Except for one thing...

[NARRATOR] Goku could not be revived

by the powers of the Earth's Dragon...

And despite a clever plan to bring him back to life,

Goku decided it'd be safer for the Earth if he didn't return.

[NARRATOR] And so, friends and family were forced

to say goodbye to the Saiyan they had for so long

called their own...

[NARRATOR] Meanwhile, light years above,

along the winding track of Snake Way,

Goku was adjusting well to life in the Other World.

[GOKU laughs]

[BUBBLES chatters]

[GREGORY yells]

[GREGORY] You take that side, Bubbles!

[GREGORY & BUBBLES yell]

[NARRATOR] As Goku went to recess with Bubbles and Gregory,

King Kai toiled away at building a replacement

for his exploded home.

But, well, that didn't work...

[GOKU] Oh, man. Sorry, King Kai! Gosh, I really blew it.

I feel so dumb!

No... No, it's not true, Bubbles...

[GREGORY] Come on, Bubbles!

[BUBBLES chatters]

[NARRATOR] Now, Goku and King Kai have started down

the endless miles of Snake Way.

Next stop-- the master of Other World!

[GREGORY hums, BUBBLES chatters]

[GOKU] Now, up the hill!

Heave-ho! Heave--

[KING KAI] Hey, Goku! Come on! Knock it off for a second

would ya?! My feet are really killing me here!

You see-- I'm not the running type!

[GOKU] Keep. It. Going. Ha, ha, alright! Keep going, 1-2, 1-2.

Oh, yeah, yeah, keep going.

[BUBBLES gibbers]

--[KING KAi sighs] --[GOKU] Whoa!

I forgot how long Snake Way was!

Listen, uh, King Kai? Can't you run any faster?

We're not making very good time.

How many times can I say this?

We can't make bad time here

'cause in this world, time never runs out!

But I still can't wait to see this Master of Other World!

Talk about the ultimate fighting challenge!

[KING KAI] I have to tell you, Goku.

You better not think lightly of him

or you're gonna be in trouble.

Oh, I don't think lightly of the guy.

I'm sure he's tough!

What?! "Guy"?!

You rude child! How dare you call him "guy"!

You must call him by his proper name so repeat after me!

His name is Grand Kai!

His name's Grand Kai...

The ruler of this world.

[GOKU] The ruler of thi--

[KING KAI] Quiet!

Now as you know, I am King Kai, and watch over Earth

and your part of space from high above.

But the Universe is divided into four quadrants:

North, South, East, and West, each with its own Kai.

But further above us is the Grand Kai.

He is our ruler.

And to add more kittens to the litter,

he's also a great Martial Artist and his home's become

an eternal training ground for heroic fighters who, like you,

have been allowed to keep their bodies after death.

Wow! Are you serious?

Well, if there's other fighters there too, I can't be late!

--[KING KAI screams] --[GOKU] See ya later, King Kai!

[KING KAI screaming]

Hey, guys!

[screaming continues]

That's right I can... fly!

[KING KAI laughs]

Oh! Ooh.

Now I feel kind of silly 'cause I was in such a rush

I forgot to ask you how to get to that place!

To reach the Grand Kai's planet you must take a plane.

Got it! Thanks a lot!

[GOKU] Bye, guys!

He's like a big yo-yo.

I give him 2 more seconds...

Here he comes!

[GOKU] Hi, guys!

Sorry, I forgot to ask you where the plane is!

[KING KAI] It's docked next to King Yemma's castle

It's called the "Higher Plane."

"Higher Plane." Right, got it. Bye!

Bye, guys!

You know, Goku would be great material...

for my next standup routine.

[KING KAI laughs]

[shoes squeal]

--[GOKU laughs] --[KING KAI] Ooh?

I just realized it'd be a lot faster to get there this way!

[KING KAI grunts]

Goku! Hold on!

[cheering, whooping]

[DEVIL GUY A] Stay in line! No pushing now!

You will all get your turn!

[KING YEMMA] You have passed...

[SPIRIT] I passed! I passed! Oh yeah! It's gonna be awesome!

So awesome! I know it! Yeah!

Next...

Can I get the next soul, please?

[GOKU] Hello!

Well, what do we have here? Our old friend Goku!

Dead again already, huh? And King Kai?!

How in the world did you die?

Well um, that's sort of a long story...

[GOKU] Nice to see you again, King Yemma!

Gotta jet!

You sure? Uh, would you like a cup of tea, or uh...

Hey, stop! Sir, you can't come this way!

I'm afraid you'll have to stand in line like every--

Oh?

[DEVIL GUY B gasps]

Ah! You still have your body!

Huh...?

I haven't worked here long,

and you're the first one I've ever seen, but can I just say...

You are an inspiration!

Uh...?

After you, sir!

[GOKU] Uh... Thank you...

That boy needs to be on a leash!

Or something...

Well, King Yemma, I'm off!

Alright. Have a nice trip!

[BUBBLES gibbers]

They've let him keep his body and train with the Grand Kai...

He must have done something incredible!

Huum...

"Rescued Earth from evil Android"...

Works for me!

[SPIRITS cheer]

Hey! If you're in Group A would you please follow me

and don't forget to show me your boarding pass!

You! Yeah!

I said single file!

Now just keep your eye on the person ahead of you

so no one gets lost, okay?

[SPIRITS] O-kaaayyy!

--[BUBBLES chatters] --[GREGORY] Bye-bye!

[GOKU] Man... How come we got stuck with this old klunker

of a plane...?

Aww... I really wanted to ride the big and fancy one...

Huh?

Whoa!

So this is the outer world! It sure looks big!

[KING KAI] Well, you better get your fill of it.

We're about to land.

[GOKU] Already? But where?

[KING KAI] There! That's the one.

[GOKU] Where? I don't see anything!

[KING KAI] Straight ahead, ya' goof!

That's the Grand Kai's planet!

[GOKU] Oh! Gee, doesn't look like much...

[KING KAI] Watch your mouth!

Oh, sorry! Guess it is bigger than your planet.

Especially now!

[KING KAI gasps]

[KING KAI] Goku... You are a rude, rude man.

Wow, this place is a dream come true, King Kai!

Look at all these fighters!

Hey, King Kai!

Hey!

It's been a long time.

Good to see you, sir!

Yes! Training hard, guys?

[FIGHTERS] Yes sir!

Hey! I'd say you sure are famous here in Other World aren't you?

Well, just with people from the North Quadrant.

So... he's from where I'm from?

Sure, same Galaxy, but he's about 2000 years your senior.

Oh... Two thousand years...

What?! Two thousand years?!

But... he's been training himself for that long?!

Four million and one...

[KING KAI] So, this is the place!

Not too shabby from the ground, now is it, Goku?

[GOKU] Yeah, it's alright-- But where's the owner?

I've got to see him.

The strongest man in Other World, whatshisname.

You'll address him as the Grand Kai!

Keep talking like that and you'll be up a creek!

'Cause he's that strong?!

This Big Kai?

Grand Kai!

Grand Kai...

That sounds much better, Goku.

You know, in all these years, not even I have had

the privilege of seeing the Grand Kai fight.

[GOKU] Really?

[KING KAI] But it is said that no words can exactly describe

how forcefully, how beautifully, and how absolutely terrifyingly

the Grand Kai fights.

[GOKU] Wow...

[KING KAI screams]

Oh! This is the one I wanted! Mint condition!

Should've known he had one! Look at her!

Whoa! Sweet!

Classic Chrome Detail! Real Leather Interior!

Check out those fins! It's cool! It's sleek! It's SEXY!

--[KING KAI moans] --Ah, please, King Kai.

Can we go in now?

[VOICE] You! It's you!

[KING KAI] Hmm? Who's me?

Well, if it isn't West Kai!

[BOTH growl]

[GOKU gasps]

[growling continues]

Hold on!

Two Kais?! That's weird!

Whadda ya think you're doing here?!

Take a guess!

[WEST KAI] Hmph! I hope it's not to see the Grand Kai

'cause we have an appointment!

As you must know, Pikkon here is the prize fighter

of the West Quadrant!

The Grand Kai called for him specifically!

[WEST KAI laughs]

Huh?

[KING KAI] Huh? What's wrong?

[WEST KAI] Hmm...

What?! Stop staring!

--[WEST KAI screams] --[KING KAI screams]

[WEST KAI laughs]

What?!

[laughing continues]

You really are dead!

[KING KAI gasps]

Yeah, so what?!

The North Kai is dead!

[WEST KAI laughs]

After all your corny jokes, it's 'bout time you WERE funny!

[WEST KAI laughs]

How dare you call my jokes corny, you little shrimp!

I was involved in something very important!

--[WEST KAI wheezes] --That's right, sir.

King Kai saved my whole planet.

Hmm?!

Excuse me, who's this guy?

I'm Goku! It's nice to meet you!

Goku is a righteous fighter who's saved his side

of the galaxy many times!

He's an incredibly strong guy!

Oh, "incredibly strong" you say?

Well... Surely you're not suggesting

he's as strong as my Pikkon...

[KING KAI] No... Goku is stronger.

Oh? Do you have any idea what you are suggesting?

Yes! That Goku is stronger!

Impossible! No one is stronger than Pikkon!

Well, Goku is!

I don't believe you!

Fine then I'll prove it!

--[GOKU gasps] --Uhh...?

You're on, big boy!

[GOKU] Huh...?

Now! Get him, Goku!

Wait! You want us to fight right here?!

He's afraid! Take him out quick, Pikkon!

--[OLD VOICE] Hold on! --[WEST KAI] Huh?

[KING KAI gasps] That must be...!

[KING KAI & WEST KAI] The Grand Kai!

Where is he?

Goku! You have to bow or else he's gonna...

[BOTH gasp]

[BOTH scream]

[coughing]

[music plays]

Hey!

Hail, Grand Kai!

[music plays]

[GRAND KAI] Uh-huh, mmm, yeah. Daddy like it. Mmm-mmm-mm!

[music plays, GRAND KAI hums]

[GOKU] This is the Grand Kai?!

[music plays, GRAND KAI hums]

[GRAND KAI] Mm-hmm.

Sorry to walk in on you guys like this.

Listen, Pikkon:

I need you to go straight to Hell for me.

[PIKKON] Yes, sir...

That's... not very nice...

He's the Grand Kai! He can say what he wants!

Now quiet!

You see, they're havin' a bit of trouble down in Hell.

[ALL] Some trouble?

Yeah, King Yemma sent some dufus named Cell down there

the other day and he's gotten out of hand.

What?! Cell?!

Now down you go!

[CELL gasps]

[CELL screams]

Then someone called Frieza and these other guys

joined him and they're all running wild and stuff!

Frieza?!

He never quits!

[GRAND KAI] So, Pikkon, I want you to run down there

and take care of 'em.

[PIKKON] Yes, of course...

[ALL] Huh?!

You'll need some help! I'm coming with you!

[KING KAI] Wait! That's not your call to make!

[GRAND KAI] Play it cool, North Kai.

Might as well let him go. He knows what he's doing, I guess.

Uhh...

I didn't ask you for your assistance.

Yeah, but I've already fought against both Cell and Frieza

and you haven't.

And unless you're something crazy, you're gonna need help.

[GOKU] This place is a mess.

Huh?!

[GOKU] Here we go...

[GOZ & MEZ grunt]

Oh! Please don't hurt us!

We'll do whatever you tell us!

Please!

[GOKU] Hey! Don't worry, Pikkon, it's only Goz and Mez.

Say, you're the one who fell off of Snake Way!

Name's Goku!

[GOZ & MEZ] Oh, good! We thought you were Cell's men!

Actually... We're on our way to take care of Cell!

[BOTH] Oh! Thank goodness!

[grunting]

[CELL] There has to be a way out of here,

and you are going to tell me it!

Because if you don't, I'll have to torture you

and your petty friends for the rest of eternity!

You are going to tell me! Now!

Auggh! I...

don't...

know...!

[CELL] Well then!

[CELL chuckles]

You know what that makes you...?

Expendable!

Noooo!

[CELL] Hm?!

[GOKU] It's sad! Even in death you refuse to learn!

--[CELL laughs] --It's Goku!

That's right, Frieza, I'm stopping you again!

Oh, but now...

The odds are stacked in my favor!

Seven to One is good odds. Wouldn't you say, boys?

[GINYU FORCE] Yeah!

[GINYU FORCE yells]

Pikkon! Catch!

[GOKU yells]

[GINYU FORCE yells]

[GOKU grunts]

--[GOKU yells] --[BURTER grunts]

[RECOOME gasps]

I do say!

How... did he... improve so much?!

[CELL] Don't you worry!

He'll soon be dealt with.

I'm the one who killed him, remember?

Well... who said we were worried?

After you, my friend...

[CELL] You're too kind...

What the--?!

[CELL gasps]

[CELL screams]

[GOKU gasps]

[BOTH gasp]

[CELL yells]

Who's that?!

[GOKU] Pikkon...

He moves... so fast!

[KING COLD gasps]

[KING COLD yells]

[FRIEZA gasps]

[FRIEZA grunts]

[KING COLD whimpers]

[GINYU FORCE & CELL scream]

[CELL screams]

[screaming continues]

This stinks...

They could at least let us take showers...

[RECOOME] Does anybody want to arm wrestle?

[ALL] Shut up!

[GOKU] Well, I was wrong about one thing.

You didn't need help!

No... But thanks.

[NARRATOR] Even in Other World, Goku is still saving the day!

And making a few new friends in the process.

There's a big new world ahead of him

with infinite time to explore!

And it looks like Goku will do just that.

Stay tuned for more of Dragon Ball Z!
