Why did you bring flowers to a battle any way?
Because it's not a battle, it's a funeral.
When one little boy can cripple a deadly empire with its superior firepower and resources, I not only think the word invincible applies, I think he defines it!
You can't leave yet, Grandpa!
Heh heh heh. Saying goodbye is never easy, Goku. But it is a necessary step before we can say hello again. And we will, I promise.
If the Dragonball is in that little car, how come my dragon radar couldn't detect it?
Pinky swear.
But it's not polite to swear.
[Mai, Pilaf,and Shu face fault]
Let me make one thing clear. This isn't about the rivalry between our schools. Or revenge. I fight for one purpose only. To win. Never again will I be led astray from my goal!
His name may sound funny, but, I can assure you, there's nothing humorous about that savage beast. With him came darkness and chaos. His minions of terror wreaked havoc upon the land, destroying all in their path with indiscriminate fury. No one knew what they wanted or why they had come. But they were here; laughing as our world crumbled around them. Piccolo and his army destroyed one city after another with little opposition - except for one temple. It was in this secluded sanctuary the beast faced a meager, but determined, school of martial artists. As the horde invaded the temple, the young fighters banded together for a final assault. Though hopelessly outnumbered, they were united. And with their combined strength, they offered a formidable defense. Many demons fell that day and alongside them - even more great men. When the battle was over, only two of the warriors were left standing: Myself and Crane Hermit. Unfortunately, the skirmish had barely made a dent in Piccolo's forces. Desperate and out of time, we concentrated our energy into a shield that absorbed the enemy fire. And, with a breath of luck, reflected it back at them. One bright light. That's all I remember. But somehow, it worked. The horde was vanquished. It was finally over, or so we thought. Apparently, the monsters were just an opening act for King Piccolo himself. We barely got a glimpse of his ugly mug before he dismissed us with a wave of his hand. Against his might were but rag dolls caught in a storm. Shin and I were young and in our prime. We gave everything we had and still King Piccolo prevailed. All those lives lost and we didn't lay a scratch on him. He was immune to everyone, even Mutaito.
Who's Mutaito?
He was my master.
Wait a minute, whats all this talk about dragons, radars, balls? What's that got to do with anything?
Just think. With eternal youth I could master time itself. Why would would I want to rule this planet for a life time when I could rule it for all time?
[To Goku] Anyone with your level of skill...DESERVES TO BE TERMINATED!
Now, let's try this once more. [King Piccolo kicks Goku in the chin, sending Goku flying into the air. Piccolo then jumps into the air after Goku and punches him back down to the ground. After Goku slams into the ground, King Piccolo picks him up by the neck]
Nice. You're still alive. I was hoping this would last a good while.
[Clearly in pain] I'm...feeling fine.
[King Piccolo promptly punches Goku in the face]
What's wrong? No witty comeback?
Sire, don't you think it would be prudent to leave for Sector 28 now? We know the outcome of this fight. There's no need to stick around.
Wait, not yet. Relax, Plano. There's always time to enjoy a good slaughter!
Hey wait, something about you is different!
Good of you to notice. I've been rejuvenated. Do you know what that means? Let's just say I'm somewhere between invincible and immortal!
[to Drum] Finish him off and make it as painful as possible!
Why must I continually deal with these human fools? If it weren't for but a handful of annoying warriors, this invasion would be so pleasant. There's nothing more aggravating than an inferior adversary who confuses pure luck with prowess
