Summary
Piccolo doubts those two were from Earth, but wonders why aliens would be here. Videl asks about this alien business, and Gohan whispers to her that Piccolo is a bit strange, and she believes it because of his complexion. Kuririn wants the drawing to hurry up and start. They continue on toward the backstage area and arrive just in time for the drawings. Kuririn prays to God that he does not have to fight any of his friends in the first round, and Piccolo says God is Dende. Goku looks around, and does not think anyone but the pair from before look great. He wonders about the two guys with the "M" on their forehead, and thinks the masked guy's body has strange proportions.
The announcer says he will call them all in (Japanese) alphabetical order. The drawing begins and Killa draws #14, Kibito draws #7, Kuririn draws #1, the Great Saiyaman draws #8 to put him up against Kibito, No. 18 draws #9, and Shin draws #3. Trunks asks Goten if they know their masked guy's name, but he does not. Spopovitch gets called up, but does not respond, so Trunks and Goten think that must be their name, and run up. The announcer tells them they are Mighty Mask, as the real Spopovitch comes up and angrily draws #6. Jewel draws next and gets #16, with Son Goku drawing #11 after him. Videl is called up and she asks about her father, and the announcer says that he is resting, so he will draw in his place. Videl draws #5, against Spopovitch. Overhearing this, Goku realizes that she is Mister Satan's daughter, and Kuririn asks Gohan when they are getting married. Puntar draws #2, and Kuririn is relieved to fight him. Vegeta draws #12, against Goku! Vegeta has been waiting a long time for this day. Trunks and Goten argue about whose father will win, as they get called up and draw #13, against Killa. Ma Junior draws #4, against Shin. The announcer then draws for Mister Satan, getting #10, against No. 18. Finally, Yamu draws #15, against Jewel. The match-ups are set!
The announcer leads them all to the waiting room, going over the rules again. There is also now a thirty-minute time limit per match, due to the increased number of matches. Puntar says he will only need ten seconds to beat Kuririn, who merely scoffs. The announcer then goes out and announces the start of the Tenka'ichi Budōkai. An attendant tells Satan that he will be in the fifth match, and his opponent is an unknown, yet beautiful girl. Satan sits up excitedly.
