Story

Kami-sama tells Popo to go get Shenlong, and so Popo comes back with a glass encased little Shenlong statue. It's in pieces, just like the real Shenlong was, and Kami-sama asks Popo to fix it. Popo sits down and glues the pieces back together, and Gokuu asks about this thing. Popo made this, and Kami-sama breathed life into it. Kami-sama explains that he gave the Dragon Balls to the people below to give them courage and hope, but they didn't use it for good things, just greed. Kami-sama says Gokuu's not like that, though, and then Popo's finished.

Kami-sama tells them to stand aside, and he fires some magic blast thing over at the Shenlong statue. Then Shenlong shoots out of it down towards the Earth, and Kami-sama explains that he's going back to the Dragon Balls. Normally they'd be ordinary stones for the span of a year, but in this case, a wish can already be granted. Gokuu's excited to get to see everyone again already, but Kami-sama says he's staying here to train. After persevering for three years, he can see his friends again at the next Tenkaichi Budoukai.

Gokuu asks why until then, so Kami-sama tells him Piccolo will surely be there, targeting his (Gokuu's) life. Gokuu freaks out, because he thought he'd defeated him. Kami-sama explains that just before he exploded, Piccolo had left behind an offspring. That offspring is getting stronger to exact revenge on Gokuu, and so if Gokuu stays here and trains for three years, he'll certainly be able to defeat Piccolo this time. He and Mister Popo can't fight him, so only Gokuu can do it.

Gokuu says he wants to start training immediately, but first, he has to piss, and asks where the toilet is. Kami-sama and Popo fall over, and then Popo points Gokuu in the temple through the grand entrance. Gokuu runs in, and then Popo asks Kami-sama that since he and Piccolo were once one, if Piccolo is defeated, Kami-sama also dies. Kami-sama says it's unavoidable, and it's his duty. He's been meaning to do this for a long time, he's just been waiting for the right person to come along to replace him. And he thinks Son Gokuu just might be it.

The Dragon Balls are gathered on Kamesennin's island, and Shenlong has appeared in all his awesomeness. Blooma says how he was dead, so Shenlong explains how Son Gokuu asked Kami-sama to return him to life. They wonder about this, so Shenlong says how he's training for the next Tenkaichi Budoukai at Heaven World. They can meet him again at the Budoukai. So, Shenlong's gonna grant the wish now, since he already knows what it is.

Kuririn wakes up, followed by Kamesennin and Chaozu! And elsewhere, Namu and Giran each wake up as well! Then the Dragon Balls disperse, and some time passes. The newly revived people have been told of Piccolo's defeat, and Kamesennin asks just where Gokuu is now. Yamcha tells how Shenlong said he's training at Heaven World, and apparently Kamesennin knows of that. If Gokuu's training there, then he's learning from Kami-sama.

Kuririn can't believe this, and Kamesennin says Gokuu's on a much different level than them now, leaving even him in the dust. Yamcha wonders just how much stronger Gokuu'll become, and Tenshinhan says he's anxious to see this Kami training at the next Budoukai, and then the others agree. Speaking of which, Gokuu is up there meditating, and doesn't much like this sitting still. Kami-sama says he needs to train his soul before anything else. And Tenshinhan, Yamcha, and Kuririn are all training for their reunion with Gokuu.
