Summary
Kame-Sen'nin announces to everyone that they are going to move to a larger island for their training. After everyone is finally outside, he puts Kame House in a capsule. Goku thinks they should travel using Kinto'un, but the old man says they will go by boat instead. The four of them hop into a hovercraft, and the Turtle Hermit tells Lunch not to sneeze. When they arrive at the island, he tells the boys they will train until dinner, but Goku has already hopped on Kinto'un to take an aerial look at the island. When he reports back that there are other houses on the island, the Turtle Hermit tells them that there are three hundred people living here. Lunch wonders what she should do while everyone else is training. The Turtle Hermit tells her to do as she likes, and so she decides to prepare dinner. She suddenly looks as though she is about to sneeze, and the boys freak out and run behind a rock. It turns out she was just yawning, and wishes them well while she makes dinner.
Before they start things, Muten Rōshi asks Kuririn if he knows anything about martial arts. Kuririn says he spent eight years at the Ōrin Temple training. Muten Rōshi decides he wants to see their true strength. He wants to know how many seconds it will take them to run a hundred meters. Not for speed, but to test the solidity of their legs. Kuririn decides he will run it first with his Olympic-capable feet, and he clocks in at 10.4 seconds. Kuririn chuckles about his best being 10.1, and then Goku goes. Goku clocks in at 11 seconds, but asks if he can change his shoes and run again. Kuririn thinks he is making excuses, since his shoes are not made for running either, but Goku shows that his are all broken (his toes are sticking out). With new shoes, Goku runs again, and clocks in at 8.5 seconds.
As Muten Rōshi takes his turtle shell off his back, he tells them they need to overcome the human barrier to become perfect martial artists. He asks Kuririn to time him, and performs his run. He asks for his time, and Kuririn says 5.6 seconds. Muten Rōshi is not that impressed by the number, and puts his turtle shell back on. He figures that since they are young, they should be able to easily beat five seconds, with training. Then he asks Goku to get him a beer, but Goku does not know what that is, so Kuririn goes. Meanwhile, Muten Rōshi tells Goku he will also need intelligence in martial arts. Lunch sneezes while Kuririn is retrieving the beer, and chases him outside with a butcher knife. While hiding behind a rock, the old man tells Goku that Kuririn is now really close to reaching the human barrier.
