Oolong, Krillin, Bulma, and young Gohan are on a camping
trip, when a
spy satellite crashes into the forest and starts a raging fire.
Krillin and
Gohan battle to put out the blaze, then gather the Dragon Balls to
wish for
the forest to be restored. One of the animals they save is a Haiyaa
Dragon
(Higher Dragon) that follows Gohan home to become his pet. The two
of
them (and Gokou) play together and have a lot of fun, but Chi Chi wants
the
dragon sent back to its mountain so it'll stop disrupting Gohan's studies.
Meanwhile, a Saiyan fighter, Taurus, and his minions are
scouting
Earth to locate Kakarot. Taurus wants Kakarot and/or Gohan to join
him to
go trash planets. The minions plant a seed for an energy-eating tree
near
the restored forest -- Taurus plans on eating the fruit of the tree
to get a
"power up." The tree grows quickly and threatens to destroy Earth.
Kaiou-sama alerts Gokou to the danger, and everyone (Chi Chi prevents
Gohan
from joining in, but Haiyaa Dragon kidnaps the boy to take him to the
battle)
goes to fight Taurus. Piccolo joins in to save Gohan, but the demon
still
plans on killing Gokou later on. Gokou denies his Saiyan heritage,
claiming that he's happy to have been hit on the head as a child, rather
than growing up to be like Taurus. There's a major battle, and
Gokou uses a
Genki Dama to kill Taurus and destroy the tree. Afterwards, the
Genki Dama
breaks up, and the lifeforce energy repairs the damage from the tree.
