"The Tenka'ichi Budōkai Begins!!" is the thirty-second chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1985 #32 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.

Summary

As the days until the Tenka'ichi Budōkai wind down, Goku and Kuririn continue their training by zig-zagging through trees, climbing up the stairs to the top of mountain, hiking through the desert, and running away from dinosaurs while delivering milk. With one month left until the tournament, Goku tells Muten Rōshi to come take a look at what he can do. Goku demonstrates that he can push the huge boulder now, and so can Kuririn. Muten Rōshi thinks that this was just a joke, and heads back to the house. He tells them he still will not be teaching them kenpō, but instead he will give them heavier 40-kilogram turtle shells.

The final month has passed, and it is finally time for the Tenka'ichi Budōkai in South City. Muten Rōshi is all dressed up, and there is a car waiting for them outside of the house. He tells Goku and Kuririn that they can go ahead and take their turtle shells off now. After doing so, they remark on how light they feel now, and Muten Rōshi tells them to try jumping. They both jump off of the ground and end up way up the air. When they come back down, they are amazed at how high they had jumped. They both quickly change into suits (which match Muten Rōshi's), and he tells them to hurry into the car so they can catch their plane. They all say goodbye to Lunch and drive off.

After catching their flight, they are finally off to the tournament. Goku is impressed by the size of this "thing", but notes that it is much slower than Kinto'un. Meanwhile, Muten Rōshi is busy groping a stewardess. When they get to the city, a taxi takes them to the Tenka'ichi Budōkai registration area. At the information desk, Muten Rōshi tells the attendant that the boys are not spectators, but participants.
