A long time ago, a group of evil magicians brought a huge, skull-faced
demon -- Hirudegarn -- to life to terrorize their planet. The demon could
only be controlled by two gourd whistles and a legendary sword. Taipon and
his little brother, Minosha, had used the gourd whistles to play a song that
calmed Hirudegarn long enough for the demon to be cut in two, and trapped
within the bodies of the two brothers.  Taipon was sealed in a music box
and shot out into space....
   It's a busy day in Satan City for the crimefighting team Great Saiyaman
(Gohan is Saiyaman 1, and Videl is Saiyaman 2) when they get a call that
a crazy old man is trying to commit suicide by jumping from a tower.  The
old man, Hoi, is rescued, and he shows Gohan a box that can't be opened.
The boy tries to turn the crank, but can't. The box is given to Bulma,
but her science toys can't see inside it.  So, the Z Fighters round up the
Dragon Balls and ask Shenlong to make the box open. This happens, and Taipon
steps out playing the legendary tune.
   Minosha, who used to look just like young Trunks but with red hair, was
killed long ago, and his half of the demon starts stalking Satan city and trashes it.
But Gohan attacks it with fireballs, and the creature disappears.
   Taipon  escapes to a deserted factory plant, and is followed by Trunks (Trunks keeps
bringing food to Taipon, but Taipon keeps chasing him away.) When Taipon
falls asleep, his half of the demon tries to escape from his body, but is
then recaptured when Taipon wakes up again. Eventually, Taipon is
befriended, and he explains everything to Bulma. Bulma tries to make a
demon-capturing bedroom, but Hoi is using his own magic to awaken
Hirudedarn. Taipon's half of the demon escapes Bulma's trap and becomes
whole again.
   The Z Fighters help trash the city in their attempt to defeat the demon,
and Goten and Trunks use Fusion to become Gotenks (but, Gotenks' energy
attacks cause the demon to go into a cocoon phase before emerging as a giant
WINGED demon.) The Z Fighters get mulched, Taipon tries to use his whistle,
but it shatters. Trunks tries to use Taipon's sword on the demon, but Gokou
switches to Super Saiyan 3, and announces that Hirudegarn is HIS to
defeat. Gokou pulls out a Super Punch with a golden dragon surrounding it (Ryuuken),
and destroys the demon.
   Afterwards, Bulma makes a time machine to return Taipon to the time when
the boy had been shot into space, and Taipon gives the sword to Trunks
(there by explaining how future Trunks came by the sword that had been used
to carve up Freeza and Freeza's Father in the manga.)
