Okay so I been trying to dig up as much information about Dragonball online plot and story as I can from past threads and various sources. So we know that Tien and Krillin decided to revive the Turtle and Crane schools due to the demand by the book Gohan published but what happened to Master Roshi and Master Crane did they die or are they still alive. All we know is that they retired and said they were too old to teach but other then that we have no idea what happened to them.
I would also like to mention that Master Roshi was believed to have drank the Immortality elixir but later said he didn't drink it. So that would mean Master Roshi age is at least 300 + already from the end of the manga.
I personally think he is dead but I have no concrete evidence.
What do you guys think ?
Here is a timeline but it is on a wiki so it might not be reliable.

Re: The Turtle Hermit Master Roshi's fate ?
Roshi is alive in DBO's Age 1000, you can go and visit Kame House via missions during the game, and he looks tha same as he did at the end of DBZ.
After Gohan wrote "Groundbreaking Science", which advocated martial arts and increased expectations to use them, many began to call for a revival of the Turtle and Crane Schools. However, the Turtle and Crane Hermits had retired due to old age, and the task of revival was passed on to Kuririn and Tienshinhan.
Kuririn founded the New Turtle School. Having fought many battles alongside Saiyans and Namekians, he understood that humans simply couldn't compare to aliens and developed techniques that revolved around working together. Even if they're unable to deal a killing blow to kill their opponent, they can still weaken them, and by combining their efforts with others, would be able to contend with far stronger enemies.
Tienshinhan, on the other hand, came to a different conclusion, believing that it was more important to develop aggressive attacks by controlling ki than it was to provide support. Having witnessed the Genki Dama that Son Goku used to defeat Majin Boo, he realized that it was possible for an individual to defeat even the strongest opponent by raising their power to the limits and gathering tremendous amounts of ki. As such, he developed techniques that revolved around strategically collecting ki and unleashing bursts of intense energy with percise timing.
