Chapter Summaries

Master Roshi gave Bulma the Three-Star Dragon Ball and Goku the Flying Nimbus, then recognized the unusual ki in Vegapunk and Goku. As the group continued toward Oolong, Vegapunk borrowed the Nimbus for research and gave Goku gravity bracelets, which Goku immediately used for tenfold-gravity training.

• The group set out to find the next Dragon Ball, which Vegapunk expected Oolong to have.
• Vegapunk traded Goku two gravity bracelets for permission to study the Flying Nimbus, and Goku activated both to train under tenfold gravity.

Vegapunk helped Kid Goku grow stronger through gravity training as the group collected another Dragon Ball and dealt with Oolong and Yamcha. After Vegapunk extinguished Fire Mountain, Ox-King gave them the Dragon Ball and a Turtle School manual, which Vegapunk planned to teach to Son Goku.

• Bulma asked why Kid Goku was running instead of riding the Flying Nimbus, and Vegapunk explained that he was training under ten times normal gravity.
• The group reached Oolong's village, where Vegapunk rescued Bulma from an axe attack and later knocked Oolong down with lightning so the villagers could reclaim their daughters and the Six-Star Ball.

Kid Goku mastered the Kamehameha and helped the Dragon Ball Team confront Emperor Pilaf, whose traps and weapons proved useless against them. After Goku vaporized part of Pilaf’s castle, Pilaf and his subordinates fled as the damaged structure began to collapse.

• Kid Goku learned the Kamehameha from the manual and blasted a mountain apart, astonishing Bulma and Oolong.
• Kid Goku destroyed Emperor Pilaf’s mech with a Kamehameha, and the Dragon Ball Team followed Pilaf to recover the One-Star Dragon Ball.

• Kid Goku blasted through the trap’s supposedly indestructible wall, vaporizing it and half the castle.
• Mai prepared a helicopter, and Emperor Pilaf, Mai, and Shu fled as the castle began to collapse.

After Bulma’s group recovered the final Dragon Ball from Pilaf, Vegapunk summoned Shenron and wished for all mortal knowledge in the universe to be uploaded into his Quantum Brain. The wish awakened the Quantum Brain and left Vegapunk with vastly accelerated thinking and knowledge that could give him solutions to powerful technologies and threats.

• Vegapunk found knowledge about technologies and abilities including Dragon Ball creation, Senzu Beans, potential unlocking, and creating Majin Buu, along with hundreds of ways to repair Pirate Planet.
• Vegapunk disconnected from the Quantum Brain, time resumed, and the seven Dragon Balls flew away across the world.

After the Dragon Balls scattered, Vegapunk and Bulma studied the Quantum Brain’s knowledge and advanced their technology before Vegapunk headed to Master Roshi’s island to check on Kid Goku. There, he learned Roshi had taken three disciples, and Roshi was already troubled by how quickly Kid Goku was improving.

Later, Master Roshi visited Vegapunk’s enormous Travel Tent and learned that Vegapunk had used the Dragon Balls to gather all knowledge in the universe.

• Master Roshi watched Kid Goku, Yamcha, and Krillin train and worried that Kid Goku’s rapid progress would discourage his fellow disciples.

• Vegapunk told Master Roshi that his Dragon Ball wish had gathered all knowledge in the universe.

Vegapunk gave Master Roshi a Battle Power Scanner and adjustable Gravity Bracelets, then invited Roshi’s disciples to his laboratory to demonstrate a technology that could help Krillin and Yamcha fight Kid Goku on equal terms. Krillin and Yamcha accepted, eager to face Goku at full strength.

• Vegapunk explained that his Dragon Ball wish had given him knowledge of the universe, and he offered Master Roshi training equipment instead of body or lifespan enhancements.
• Vegapunk used his Battle Power Scanner to measure Master Roshi at 176 and Kid Goku at 173, then showed how concealing ki could lower a reading.

After watching Kid Goku and his other disciples rapidly outgrow him, Master Roshi agreed to Vegapunk’s human-modification experiment. He ate a Black Tortoise Fantasy Species Devil Fruit, regained his youth, and gained immense strength, though Vegapunk explained that his new power depended on changing forms.
