Dragon Ball Chapter 472 »

"A Time of Tribulation" is the four hundred and seventy-first chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1994 #25 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.

Summary

Now Babidi wants Buu to make the city look "neat", but not too much, so he doesn't blow up the Earth. Buu takes a deep breath, and then exhales all over the city, completely blowing it up. Babidi shows everyone an image of Piccolo, Trunks, and Goten again, and anyone who knows where they are had better speak up, if they don't want to be turned into candy and eaten. And they'd better hurry, because everyone on Earth will be destroyed within five days. To contact Babidi, just call him out by thinking of him in your head. Someone suddenly contacts Babidi, a Budōkai attendant, to say that those three were participants today. Their names are Ma Junior, Trunks, and Son Goten. Babidi doesn't care about names, he wants addresses, but the attendant doesn't have those. So, Babidi kills the guy by making his head explode.

Babidi warns people not to waste his time like that, and tells everyone that they could be next. He tells everyone they have five days, again, and then ends the transmission. Piccolo is livid at this turn of events, and wants to go to prevent the loss of lives. Goku says not to talk stupid, he needs Piccolo to teach the boys Fusion when he's gone. That's the only way to defeat Buu, and they'll destroy the Earth either way. They can restore the people and the planet with the Dragon Balls. Piccolo agrees, and calms down. Far away from Earth in the Kaiōshin Realm, Kaiōshin tells Kibito to heal Son Gohan. Gohan wakes up, and wonders where they are. When he hears Kaiōshin Realm, Gohan figures he's dead.

Kibito says originally, no mortals, or even gods or Kaiō, could come to this sacred land. Gohan remembers that Kibito should be dead, and asks if he revived himself. Kibito says no, but he doesn't know how he came back to life. Gohan asks why he's here, and Kibito would like to know as well. Kaiōshin says, "I want you to use the Z Sword to defeat Majin Buu. Gohan, of all people, should certainly be able to use that sword." Kibito freaks out, and says there's no way a mortal could ever use that legendary blade that no one, even Kaiōshin, have been able to use. Kaiōshin says Kibito was dead, so he doesn't know how unbelievably incredible Gohan's power really is. He wants to go try now, so the three of them fly off toward its location.

As they fly along, Kibito says Gohan's [tattered] clothes are inappropriate for this sacred land, and so he magically gives Gohan an outfit just like his own. Kaiōshin thinks it looks good on him, but Gohan feels weird looking just like Kibito. The three of them land atop a very tall, thin pillar-like plateau, where the Z Sword is stuck in the ground with only the hilt visible. Kaiōshin asks Gohan to pull it out, and Gohan thinks this sounds like an old story. Back on Earth, the boys are awake. Trunks is sad and sniffling that his Papa was killed, while Goten cries about Gohan. Goku yells at them not to cry, right now they need to learn a new technique so they can get revenge. Goku says they have to hurry, in case Babidi finds this place, so Piccolo suggests they use the Room of Spirit and Time. Goku says that someone can only use that room for at most two days in their life, and they may need it sometime in the future. Goku thinks there should be enough time here, and says it's time to begin.

 ==Summary==
-Gohan asks what will happen when he pulls the Z Sword out, and Kibito says he's supposed to gain tremendous power, probably more than enough to beat Majin Buu. Gohan is amazed, but Kibito assures him he can't pull it out anyway. Kaiōshin tells him (nicely) to shut up and watch. Gohan starts pulling, putting all of his might into it and really struggling, but it won't come out. Gohan then stops and grasps his hands, and Kibito smirks. Gohan then transforms into a Super Saiyan, but Kibito doubts it will make much of a difference. Gohan starts pulling again, and he still struggles, but it eventually begins to budge. Gohan pulls it all the way out, shocking Kibito and making Kaiōshin happy.

-Back on the ground, Kaiōshin asks how the sword is. Gohan, no longer Super Saiyan, says it's heavy and all, but it doesn't seem like there's much power in it. He doubts it could really beat Buu. Kibito says of course it can, so long as the wielder is able to use it freely. Gohan asks Kibito to try holding it, and hands the sword over to him. Kibito immediately drops it, leaving a huge dent in the ground, and Kibito can't get it up again. Kibito plays that down, but then yells that he must be able to use the sword freely.
+Babidi warns people not to waste his time like that, and tells everyone that they could be next. He tells everyone they have five days, again, and then ends the transmission.

-Goku explains that if they use Fusion to successfully fuse, they should be able to stay that way for thirty minutes. After thirty minutes are up, they return to normal, and won't be able to use Fusion again for a while. Piccolo thinks thirty minutes is too rough. Goku says with those two, thirty minutes should be plenty. Goku asks them to turn Super Saiyan now, but the boys just scowl at him. Trunks asks where he was when Papa and Gohan were killed. Unconscious. Hearing that, Trunks thinks he must be a real weakling. Goten says they couldn't get strong by learning techniques from such a weakling.
+Kibito says originally, no mortals, or even gods or Kaiō, could come to this sacred land. Gohan remembers that Kibito should be dead, and asks if he revived himself. Kibito says no, but he doesn't know how he came back to life. Gohan asks why he's here, and Kibito would like to know as well. Kaiōshin says, "I want you to use the Z Sword to defeat Majin Buu.

-Piccolo gets angry, but Goku says they're right, he is a weakling. But even if he is weak, he must teach them Fusion, that's the only way if they want to get revenge for Vegeta and Gohan. "Hehehehe... Here we are once again, people of Earth! The Mage Babidi, and Majin Buu!! This time we've found a much larger city than the last one. We're now going to turn this city into nothing, if the three called Ma Junior, Trunks, and Goten don't come here right now." Some people within the city realize it's their city, and notice Babidi and Buu in the air. Trunks notices they're being talked about, and Goten says you can see Buu and Babidi if you close your eyes. Piccolo says they're better off not looking.
+As they fly along, Kibito says Gohan's [tattered] clothes are inappropriate for this sacred land, and so he magically gives Gohan an outfit just like his own. Kaiōshin thinks it looks good on him, but Gohan feels weird looking just like Kibito. The three of them land atop a very tall, thin pillar-like plateau, where the Z Sword is stuck in the ground with only the hilt visible.

-"It seems like we haven't been contacted by anyone... Too bad. We'll just have to increase the number of victims. This time, he'll turn them into chocolate and eat them." Buu shoots out magic, turning the citizens into chocolate bars, and Trunks and Goten can't stand watching. Buu eats his chocolate, and then destroys the remains of the city. "It seems that Majin Buu has had his fill from this chocolate. So, we'll just blow the next town to dust right off. Now then, where shall we go next..." Trunks and Goten then call out to him. "Oh my! At last they've contacted me themselves." Trunks angrily says that in a short time, they'll kill them. Piccolo yells to stop talking to Babidi before their location is exposed. "Hey!!! Where are you, where!!! Come here!! Are you hiding?! Cowards!!!" Goku thinks they must really want to train now, and Trunks and Goten each nod in agreement.
