"The Effects of the Super Holy Water" is the eighty-ninth chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1986 #39 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.

Summary

Goku cannot believe it took the Turtle Hermit three years to get the Super Divine Water, and Karin wonders how long it will take him. Goku says he cannot wait that long, and decides to get serious. He hops around leaving some afterimages, and Karin recognizes the Zanzō-Ken. Karin jump-kicks up into the air, missing a Goku, as the real Goku dives at the mid-air Karin from above. But that was just an afterimage, and Goku dives into the ground. Karin knows how to counter the Zanzō-Ken. Goku cannot believe he is already out of breath, and Karin explains that the air is thinner up here. Karin also says he probably has not noticed how much stronger he has gotten just climbing up Karin Tower.

Then Karin holds up Goku's pouch, and Goku tells him to give it back. Instead, though, he throws it over the edge, so Goku runs down the tower to get it back, since it would be awful if the Red Ribbon Army got it. He grabs it, and scurries all the way back up the tower and yells at Karin for that. Karin laughs, and explains that it took Goku one day to get up here the first time, but this time, a round trip took him only three hours. Then they start the chase all over again, until night falls and they both go to sleep. Goku gets up in the night and sneaks over to take the water, but then decides against it. Karin thinks to himself that this kid is honest, unlike Muten Rōshi.

The chase continues the next day. Goku is determined to get it today, so he rushes at Karin and keeps swinging at him. Goku starts tickling Karin in mid-air when they are near the railing, and Karin accidentally drops his staff and the jar over the edge. Goku leaps off to grab it, and catches onto the railing with his tail.

Goku asks if it is all right to drink the water now, and Karin gives him the okay. Goku gulps it down, but he thinks that nothing has happened. Karin says the Super Divine Water is really just ordinary water, and Goku thinks he has been tricked. Karin says it was not a trick; he has already gotten stronger from climbing up and down Karin Tower and chasing him around. "Now then, test out the fruits of your training by returning to the lower world!" Goku is very happy, thanks him and leaves. Karin thinks how Goku may now have surpassed Muten Rōshi.
