Tullece’s minions land and create a fisher in the earth to plant the seed.

The Z Warriors head out, but their attacks don’t even leave a scratch on the ''Shinseiju''. Tullece’s minions soon appear and a battle breaks out as Tullece watches on from their space ship. The Z Warriors attack with all they have, but it soon become apparent they are no match.

Hire Dragon appears and calms Gohan, but after seeing this, Tullece shots Hire Dragon. Gohan goes into a frenzy and quickly turns on Tullece. Tullece decides he’s had enough fun and fires a massive ''ki'' attack at Gohan, but Goku severs his tail return him to normal just in time so that the attack misses Gohan.

With the sudden surge of power, Tullece quickly turns the tables on Goku, but the Z Warriors come to his aid. As they take on Tullece, Goku begins to form a ''Genki-Dama'', but the Earth barely has any energy left.

Energy from the ''Shinseiju'' suddenly flows into Goku and the ''Genki-Dama'' is complete. With the remaining Z Warriors defeated, Goku confronts Tullece and each unleashes their final attack. Goku’s ''Genki-Dama'' overwhelms Tullece’s ''ki'' attack and hits him head on, sending him flying through the ''Shinseiju''. The massive ''Genki-Dama'' also destroys the ''Shinseiju'' and its energy is returned back to Earth. With peace returned, our heroes enjoy another camping trip.

Summary

Gohan, Kuririn, Bulma, and Oolong are spending a peaceful day camping, but that night a huge fire breaks out it the nearby forest. Using their ki, Kuririn and Gohan put out the fire and use the Dragon Balls to restore the forest. Unbeknownst to our heroes, the fire was started by a space probe landing. The next morning the space pod begins scouting the area and it is soon revealed that it was sent by a Saiyan, Tullece, who has chosen the Earth to plant the Shinseiju ("Tree of Godly Might"). The Shinseiju absorbs the world's energy, storing it in its fruit, and whoever eats it is granted great power.

Tullece's minions land and create a fisher in the earth to plant the seed. Kaio recognizes the Shinseiju and warns the Z Warriors of the Earth's imminent devastation if they don't destroy it immediately. The Z Warriors head out, but their attacks don't even leave a scratch on the Shinseiju. Tullece's minions soon appear and a battle breaks out as Tullece watches on from their space ship. The Z Warriors attack with all they have, but it soon become apparent they are no match.

Tullece soon notices the young Saiyan Gohan and appears before him, trying to convince him to join him and help him conquer the universe. Gohan refuses, so Tullece decides to kill him, but Piccolo intervenes. Unfortunately he is no match for the Saiyan and is sent flying. Tullece decides to have a little fun and creates an artificial moon, forcing Gohan to look at it and transform. Goku notices this and comes to help, only to be attacked by Gohan in Ōzaru form. Hire Dragon appears and calms Gohan, but after seeing this, Tullece shots Hire Dragon. Gohan goes into a frenzy and quickly turns on Tullece. Tullece decides he's had enough fun and fires a massive ki attack at Gohan, but Goku severs his tail return him to normal just in time so that the attack misses Gohan.

Enraged at Tullece for treating Gohan like this, Goku quickly defeats Tullece's minions and heads off to take on Tullece. Goku and Tullece's one-on-one showdown begins and Goku has Tullece on the ropes. However, the fruit of the Shinseiju has finally developed and Tullece grabs one, taking a bite. With the sudden surge of power, Tullece quickly turns the tables on Goku, but the Z Warriors come to his aid. As they take on Tullece, Goku begins to form a Genki-Dama, but the Earth barely has any energy left.

Energy from the Shinseiju suddenly flows into Goku and the Genki-Dama is complete. With the remaining Z Warriors defeated, Goku confronts Tullece and each unleashes their final attack. Goku's Genki-Dama overwhelms Tullece's ki attack and hits him head on, sending him flying through the Shinseiju. The massive Genki-Dama also destroys the Shinseiju and its energy is returned back to Earth. With peace returned, our heroes enjoy another camping trip.
