Dragon Ball Chapter 474 »

"Son Goku Contacts Majin Boo!" is the four hundred and seventy-third chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1994 #27 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.

Summary

Goku says there is no time to mess around, so the boys need to hurry and turn Super Saiyan. They both transform, and Goku tells them to raise their ki as high as possible. Trunks tells Goten they should surprise him, and they both power up further. Piccolo is blown away, but Goku does not flinch at all. Goku tells them Trunks's ki is a bit higher, and they must be equal for Fusion to work. So, Trunks needs to suppress his ki a little to match Goten's. He messes with it a bit, until Goku tells him he has got it. Goku says to remember that, and then tells them to turn back to normal. Trunks is annoyed at having to match Goten. Goku says next they will try raising their ki to the max in normal mode, since using Fusion as Super Saiyans will be hard.

Then Bobbidi speaks again. "People of Earth! Just now, I've gotten some great information. One of those three, the brat called Trunks, lives in the place called Capsule Corporation in West City. We'll go there now. It'll be great if you're there, but it would be even better if you hurried up and showed yourself. Because the town you live in is about to disappear." Trunks gets mad, because Grandpa and Grandma are still there. Bulma comes in and complains to Goku that her parents will be killed, but Goku reassures her that they will use the Dragon Balls to return them to life. Bulma says West City will also be destroyed, so Goku says they will bring that back with the second wish.

Piccolo objects, saying that they have already brought back many people with the first wish, so there is only one wish left. Goku thinks they could say "Return everything to normal" as the next wish, but Piccolo is unsure. Bulma butts in saying that if the laboratory is destroyed, the Dragon Radar, which uses very special parts, will be destroyed along with it. In other words, they could not summon Shenlong anymore. Goku says he will hold off Boo and Bobbidi for a while, and tells Trunks to go home and get the radar. Trunks wonders if he will be okay holding them off, but Goku says sure, if it is just for a little while. Goku teleports away, and then Trunks flies off.

Bobbidi says Boo is flying too fast, and is worried he will fall off. Boo seems silently annoyed. Goku suddenly appears in front of them, and Bobbidi is surprised Vegeta did not kill him. Bobbidi also thanks him, since it is because of him that Boo was revived. Goku says he and Vegeta were both too naive, and did not think Majin Boo would be this awesome. Boo laughs at the compliment, while Bobbidi wants to know why he is here, to tell them where those three are? Goku says of course not, one of them is his son. He has come to give some advice. Bobbidi thinks this is interesting, and wants to let the whole Earth hear this advice. Goku promises they will see those three in a short time. But in the meantime, they need to stop the pointless destruction and tormenting the weak, and just wait.

Bobbidi asks why wait, so Goku explains that those three are under special training to defeat them. Bobbidi and Boo laugh at that. Bobbidi says they will not wait, and they will continue to kill Earthlings until they come out. Goku had thought as much, so he is going to oppose them for a while. Bobbidi says to go ahead, thinking he wants to be killed like Vegeta. Boo sits there whistling, and Bobbidi yells at him to hurry up and attack. Boo starts stretching, and Goku wonders why he listens to Bobbidi even though he is so strong. Bobbidi tells Goku to shut up, Majin Boo is his servant. Boo glares at Babidi, so Bobbidi asks if he wants to be sealed away. Boo says, "If you seal me away, you'll be killed by him." Bobbidi is pissed that Boo has suddenly gotten wise.

Boo will kill him anyway, though. He looks like a "good boy", so Boo hates him. Goku realizes there is no choice. Bobbidi tells the people of Earth to take a good look, this is what happens to people who defy him. Goku then transforms into a surpassed Super Saiyan. Trunks stops flying and notes that Goku is at the same power as his Papa was. Bobbidi says this is pointless, Vegeta did the same thing. Goku says, "Well, why don't I try surpassing the level of Super Saiyan that surpasses Super Saiyan..."

 ==Summary==
-Piccolo tries to figure out what Goku said, while Babidi thinks it’s just nonsense. Goku notices Trunks’ ''ki'' has stopped moving, and hopes he hurries up. Trunks is sitting mid-air watching the events between Goku and Babidi, so Goku yells out at him to hurry up and get the Radar. Babidi wonders who he was talking to, and figures he has some sort of futile plan. Goku thinks he’ll just have to buy more time, and then returns to normal. Buu thinks he’s given up. "That’s not it. I’m gonna explain Super Saiyan so you guys understand." Babidi says that’s dumb, they don’t want to know. "Don’t say that. First, I guess this is my normal state." He transforms. "This is Super Saiyan." He transforms again, to the spikier lightning level. "And this is what you saw before. Super Saiyan that surpasses Super Saiyan. Or Super Saiyan 2, you could say."
+[[Goku]] says there is no time to mess around, so the boys need to hurry and turn [[Super Saiyan]]. They both transform, and Goku tells them to raise their ''[[Ki|ki]]'' as high as possible. [[Trunks]] tells [[Goten]] they should surprise him, and they both power up further. [[Piccolo]] is blown away, but Goku does not flinch at all. Goku tells them Trunks's ''ki'' is a bit higher, and they must be equal for [[Fusion]] to work. So, Trunks needs to suppress his ''ki'' a little to match Goten's. He messes with it a bit, until Goku tells him he has got it. Goku says to remember that, and then tells them to turn back to normal. Trunks is annoyed at having to match Goten. Goku says next they will try raising their ''ki'' to the max in normal mode, since using Fusion as Super Saiyans will be hard.
-Babidi thinks these transformations are meaningless. "And..." Kuririn thinks Goku’s bluffing. "This... Surpasses even that..." Goku starts transforming, this one not being an immediate change. Kaiō wants him to stop, or else his remaining time will... Babidi and Buu are shocked, as Piccolo says his ''ki'' is rising rapidly. Even Tenshinhan, way off in the mountains somewhere with Chiaotzu, says the Earth is shaking and wonders what Goku’s up to. Goku finally completes the transformation. His hair is much longer, there’s a lot more lightning, and he’s lost his eyebrows.
+Then [[Bobbidi]] speaks again. "People of [[Earth]]! Just now, I've gotten some great information. One of those three, the brat called Trunks, lives in the place called [[Capsule Corporation]] in [[West City]]. We'll go there now. It'll be great if you're there, but it would be even better if you hurried up and showed yourself. Because the town you live in is about to disappear." Trunks gets mad, because [[Brief|Grandpa]] and [[Bulma's Mom|Grandma]] are still there. [[Bulma]] comes in and complains to Goku that her parents will be killed, but Goku reassures her that they will use the [[Dragon Balls]] to return them to life. Bulma says West City will also be destroyed, so Goku says they will bring that back with the second wish.
-"...This is Super Saiyan 3. Sorry it took so much time. I’m still not used to this form." Everyone is amazed, and even Gohan stops his Z Sword training to wonder if that’s his dad’s ''ki'' he can feel. Kaiōshin says it really is Son Goku, and Kibito can’t believe they’d feel his power all the way here in this sacred land. Gohan wonders what is going on. Back on Earth, Buu says Goku’s face has gotten scary, but Buu’s not scared at all. Babidi thinks this is nothing much, and tells Buu to beat him up, as the entire Earth watches. Goku flies forward, grabs Buu’s forelock, and then punches Buu a few times with his free hand. Goku then swings Buu around, letting him go so that Buu crashes into the ocean.
+Piccolo objects, saying that they have already brought back many people with the first wish, so there is only one wish left. Goku thinks they could say "Return everything to normal" as the next wish, but Piccolo is unsure. Bulma butts in saying that if the laboratory is destroyed, the [[Dragon Radar]], which uses very special parts, will be destroyed along with it. In other words, they could not summon [[Shenlong]] anymore. Goku says he will hold off [[Boo]] and Bobbidi for a while, and tells Trunks to go home and get the radar. Trunks wonders if he will be okay holding them off, but Goku says sure, if it is just for a little while. Goku [[Teleportation|teleports]] away, and then Trunks flies off.
-Buu flies out of the water, and lets off a volley of blasts at Goku. Goku manages to swat them all away, thinking Buu was hardly damaged by his attack, and Buu just used one of Vegeta’s techniques, meaning he can pick up his opponent’s techniques just from fighting for a little while. Buu stretches his arm out to punch Goku in the face from a distance, but Goku is barely damaged, either. Kaiō wants Goku to stop, because using that abnormal power will greatly reduce his time on Earth, and then there will be no one to teach Fusion to the kids.
+Bobbidi says Boo is flying too fast, and is worried he will fall off. Boo seems silently annoyed. Goku suddenly appears in front of them, and Bobbidi is surprised [[Vegeta]] did not kill him. Bobbidi also thanks him, since it is because of him that Boo was revived. Goku says he and Vegeta were both too naive, and did not think Majin Boo would be this awesome.
