Super Holy Water (超聖水)
Debut: Dragon Ball Chapter 88 / Dragon Ball Episode 61

A legendary holy water said to increase the drinker's power several-fold when consumed. It is kept by Karin, a hermit cat who resides in Karin Tower. Goku tries to obtain the water so that he may acquire the strength to defeat Tao Pai-Pai. Despite its reputation, it is just ordinary water. The several-fold power increase actually results from a form of training caused by climbing Karin Tower and attempting to take the pot of Super Holy Water from Karin. It took the Turtle Hermit in his youth three years to snatch the Super Holy Water from Karin's game of keepaway, but Goku far surpasses that by completing the challenge in just three days.[1]

Ultra Holy Water (超神水)
Debut: Dragon Ball Chapter 151 / Dragon Ball Episode 116

A mircaulous water that, when consumed, can draw out all latent potential from the person who drank it. Goku drinks it to draw out a strength beyond that of Demon King Piccolo. Though described as "water", it is a gruesome poison that causes immense pain when drank. Overcoming this pain is what draws out potential, which is why those without great willpower and vitality will end up dying. The poison is so powerful that even Karin spat it out after not being to stand it. In fact, prior to Goku (who takes six hours to overcome its effects) no one drank it and survived. Additionally, there is no effect for those who have already drawn out all of their power through training. In the anime, there is also an Ultra Holy Water in God's Temple, though it is unclear if this is the same as Karin's water. In Dragon Ball Z, this water is used to nullify the effects of Aquamist, and in Dragon Ball GT, Kaiōshin uses the water to remove the eggs laid by Baby from Earth's populace.[2]

Dragon Balls

Ultimate Dragon Balls (究極ドラゴンボール)
Debut: Dragon Ball GT Episode 1

Dragon Balls with black stars inside, made before Earth's God and Demon King Piccolo split in two, which hold a greater power than regular Dragon Balls. Pilaf uses these balls to transform Goku's body into that of a child's. Using these will summon forth a red Shenlong to grant a wish. The black-star Dragon Balls will then scatter across the cosmos, and if they are not assembled within one year, Earth will vanish. Unlike regular Dragon Balls, after the wish is fulfilled, they do not seem to turn to back to stone.[3]
