Summary
This plot summary is given on the DVD cover:
Commander Black is on the attack! And if this isn't enough to worry about, Goku has no idea where the last Dragon Ball is located. Master Roshi tells him that the mysterious Fortuneteller Baba is skilled in locating things lost. Baba agrees to help Goku and his companions on one condition: they must first defeat her best 5 fighters, each one stronger and more sinister than the one before! Goku faces his most mind-blowing opponent yet. How will he fare against someone who knows him so well? While Goku, Yamcha, and Krillin battle for the location of the Dragon Ball, evil Emperor Pilaf saves them the trouble and steals it for himself! Goku must find a way to blast through a bionic bird stuff with Pilaf and his crew and reunite all 7 Dragon Balls. The combined power of the Dragon Balls summons the Eternal Dragon to grant one wish. Just who will be the one to make the wish and for what will they ask?

Character Profiles
Character profiles are included on both discs; presented exactly as they were written.
With his hands full fending off the remnants of the Red Ribbon Army, Goku must somehow locate the Dragon Balls. With a busted dragon radar it may be an impossible task. Luckily Master Roshi tells Goku about Fortuneteller Baba and her ability to find lost things. But nothing could prepare Goku for what he finds when he meets the unusual Baba.
The infamous former bandit Yamcha has reformed his villainous ways and now aids Goku in the search for the Dragon Balls. Yamcha's worth is soon tested against one of Baba's most bizarre fighters. Is there any way Yamcha can defeat an opponent he cannot see?
This little blue man may wear the title of emperor, but don't let that fool you. Pilaf is an arrogant, power-hungry fiend who wants nothing more than to take over the world. Pilaf has dedicated his considerable wealth to finding the seven Dragon Balls. Pilaf tends to be a bit high-strung and given to frequent, childish temper tantrums.
Allowing Goku and the Dragon Ball hunters a brief rest at his home, Master Roshi reveals that a powerful fortuneteller just might be able to locate the missing balls. Roshi states that Fortuneteller Baba has helped him locate lost items in the past. But is it possible that the absent-minded Roshi forgot to tell Goku one important fact about Baba?
The peculiar Fortuneteller Baba has been practicing her craft for over 500 years. Visitors to her palace must have deep pockets to gain her assistance. Without money, anyone needing her services must be prepared to battle her champions. Only then will they receive what they seek.
After strong-arming command of the Red Ribbon Army, Commander Black continues the Army's feverish hunt for the Dragon Balls. Only Goku stands in his way. With the might of the Army's incredible technological weaponry at his disposal he just might get his wish after all.
With his partner in crime, Plague, Terror has terrorized a small village for many years. But despite their evil ways, the real danger lies in a secret weapon the maniacs possess, one that could destroy Goku and leave his new foes invincible!
In order to appease Plague and Terror, the inhabitants of a small village instituted a ritual called The Feeding. The villagers sacrifice most of their food and water to the marauders, buying their momentary freedom. The cold-hearted Plague takes great pleasure in forcing his will upon the innocents, often leaving them with barely enough to survive until the next Feeding.
Sky Dragon runs the Panther Fang School of Martial Arts along with his brother, Rising Dragon. Sky Dragon is a gifted fighter, who, ironically, doesn't like competition! But when he does decide to fight, Sky Dragon will use any devious tactic in order to win. In fact, Sky Dragon has never lost a fight!
