"Kuririn's Strategy, Goku's Strategy" is the one hundred and twenty-seventh chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1987 #27 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.
Summary
Kuririn laughs about this turnabout as Goku slowly loses his strength from having his tail squeezed. "Whoooooa, contestant Son is down!! What in the world could be wrong!?" Tenshinhan thinks this is rather unexpected, and laughs about how fighting that Kuririn guy will be an easy victory for him. Goku suddenly gets up just as the count reaches nine and jumps over Kuririn's head while his tail is still being held. Then Goku slams Kuririn down using his tail, and explains that he trained his tail just like the Turtle Hermit had suggested.[a] The Turtle Hermit ponders this turn of events, and says that Goku now has no weak points.
Kuririn does the old "look over there" gag, and elbows Goku in the face when his head is turned. The Turtle Hermit says he does have a weak point after all — he is too docile and honest. Goku then vanishes from sight. Kuririn frantically looks around, but he cannot find Goku, nor can anyone else; except Tenshinhan, who thinks to himself that Goku has not disappeared, they just cannot see him because he is going ridiculously fast. Goku suddenly appears in front of Kuririn sticking his tongue out, freaking Kuririn out, and then Goku whacks Kuririn, tossing him out of the ring. "Ring out... I-it's contestant Son's win..."
Everyone is surprised by the turn of events, except Tenshinhan. The Crane Hermit and Turtle Hermit each wonder about Goku as well. The announcer asks Goku if he would like to have a recess before the finals, but Goku declines. "Now, ladies and gentleman, at last the greatest martial artist in the world will be decided!! It is the finals!!! As expected, the honor of being the greatest in the world and a five hundred thousand zenni prize will be waiting for either Tenshinhan, or perhaps Son Goku. Surely this will be the can't-miss match of the century!!!" Kuririn tells Goku not to lose, and Tenshinhan thinks this should be fun.
