One day, Gohan organises a special meal in honnor of Goku's 18th birthday but the old man is mortally wounded by one of Piccolo's henchmen who then steals his dragon ball. Before dying, Gohan asks Goku to get all seven dragon balls to save the earth from it's ultimate destruction.He also asks Goku to get some help from Master Roshi to find the seven dragon balls. After Gohan's death , Goku ventures alone in a grand adventure full of excitement and suprises.
On the way to meet Master Roshi, Goku meets a young woman named Bulma. By sheer coincidence ,Bulma has in her possession a radar that tracks the dragon balls. Bulma decides to take advantage of Goku's stength and follows him on his quest. After a few days of tough travelling , they finally arrive at Master Roshi's house. Goku continues his training and improves his techniques with Master Roshi (learns Kamehameha). Our three friends now start their quest on the search of all seven dragon balls. On their travels , they fall into a trap created by a desert bandit called Yamcha.
