Ever since Goku became Earths greatest hero and gathered the seven Dragon Balls to defeat the evil Boo, his life on Earth has grown a little dull. But new threats loom overhead, and Goku and his friends will have to defend the planet once again in this continuation of Akira Toriyamas best-selling series, Dragon Ball!

Piccolo sneaks into the Red Ribbon Armys secret base and learns of their plan to try and conquer the world again. This time, they have Dr. Hedoa naive super genius and grandson of Dr. Geroon their side,and have deceived him into helping them build androids. One of theseandroids is Cell Max, a giant, even-more-destructive version of the original Cell. Theyve also managed to convince the gullible scientist that they are the good guys trying to save the world, and that Capsule Corp., Goku, and everyone who fought against them all those years ago are the actual bad guys. And since Goku and Vegeta are nowhere to be seen, what better way to start thinning the evil crop than by kidnapping Gohan's daughter Pan in an attempt to draw him out from hiding and destroy him once and for all!
