"Tenshinhan and Tao Pai-pai" is the one hundred and sixty-ninth chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1988 #19 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.
Summary
Things are starting, and the three Turtle dōgi-wearing young men have told Bulma, Lunch, Oolong, Pu'er, and the Turtle Hermit that everyone but Chiaotzu is competing. Kuririn says the person who defeated Chiaotzu was the Crane Hermit's little brother, Tao Pai-pai, who survived his fight with Goku and became half robot. Yamcha says Tao Pai-pai intends to kill Goku and Tenshinhan, and he is fighting Tenshinhan in the first match. The Turtle Hermit thinks Tenshinhan is in trouble, but Goku says he is not, Tao Pai-pai is no match for Tenshinhan.
And then the Crane Hermit interrupts them, and says the clumsy punks of the Turtle Style will be wiped out. The Turtle Hermit tells him that Tenshinhan, and now these three here, do not follow the Turtle Style, since they are walking their own path. "Hoh, despite the fact that they're wearing Turtle Style dōgi?" The Turtle Hermit says they have done that of their own will, and Kuririn affirms it. And then the Crane Hermit walks off, talking some more crap about how they will lose. But Goku says Tao Pai-pai is not really all that awesome.
The contestants are called on to start the matches, and so everyone wishes Goku, Yamcha, and Kuririn well as they head off. The Turtle Hermit mentions getting to be a spectator this time, but then Oolong shouts out that the crowd is too big, and there is no way to get a good view. Bulma then tickles Lunch's nose with a little reed, and she sneezes, turning into the bad one. Lunch pulls out her pistols and starts firing into the air, clearing a path for them.
Kuririn asks Goku why he thinks Tao Pai-pai will not win, and Goku explains that Tenshinhan is just much more awesome. He changes the subject, saying he has these things that can fill you up like ten days worth of food. Kuririn and Yamcha grin, and Kuririn says he and Yamcha also have senzu. Yamcha explains that Muten Rōshi told him, Kuririn, Tenshinhan, and Chiaotzu about climbing Karin Tower, and so they all trained there. Kuririn says there was this Yajirobe dude there, and they told him to come to the Budōkai since he looked strong. But it seems he did not show up. Yajirobe is hiding in the bushes, pissed about having lost.
"Ladies and gentlemen of the audience, so sorry to have kept you waiting such an awfully long time!! But now we're back, and we'll begin the Twenty Third Tenka'ichi Budōkai!!" Tao Pai-pai and Tenshinhan are called out for the first match, and Lunch yells out at Tenshinhan to kick some ass. "Well then, please begin the first match!!" Tenshinhan and Tao Pai-pai stare each other down, as Yamcha, Goku, Kuririn, the Crane Hermit, and the Turtle Hermit watch intently.
Tao Pai-pai rushes at Tenshinhan, but Tenshinhan easily sidesteps it, and then pops Tao Pai-pai on the back. Tao Pai-pai staggers back up, pissed, and Tenshinhan asks him to please stop. Tao Pai-pai asks about that, but Tenshinhan disappears and then reappears behind Tao Pai-pai, saying he thinks he has become too strong for him.
