"Dragon Balls in Danger!!" is the ninth chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1985 #09 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.

Synopsis

Goku, Bulma, and Oolong make camp for the night in Oolong's camper van, and Oolong plots to drug Goku and Bulma so he can feel Bulma up in her sleep. However, his plans are interfered with by Yamcha and Pu'er who, having learned of the Dragon Balls, plot to steal them, leading to a series of events where neither party achieves their original goals.

Summary

Night has fallen, as our heroes relax and eat in Oolong's House Wagon. Bulma asks about the bathroom, and so Oolong shows her, and she inspects the shower (she is not sure if she can use such a small one). She tells Oolong not to peek, and Oolong thinks to himself that he will not have to. Bulma asks for some pajamas, and Oolong says he will lend her some. Meanwhile, at their hideout, Yamcha tells Pu'er they are going to steal their capsules now that the sun has set. Pu'er asks how, and Yamcha tells him to transform into the brat and lead the girl outside, and Pu'er thinks that is a great plan.

Oolong thinks the bad guys are still out there, but Goku says he will not lose this time since his stomach is filled up. Oolong then asks why they would want to go to a place like Mount Frypan. Goku says it is because there is a Dragon Ball there, and shows him. At the same time, Yamcha and Pu'er make their way towards them. Yamcha sees that the capsule was a "house wagon" and thinks about the plan, deciding they should check around first. Meanwhile, Bulma is taking a relaxing shower. Yamcha and Pu'er are just outside the bathroom window, and they hear her inside. Pu'er thinks it will be easy if the other two are sleeping, and Yamcha decides to take a look inside. He sees a lot more than he had planned on seeing and he freaks out. Pu'er asks what is wrong, and Bulma looks out the window to see what the noise was.

Yamcha and Pu'er sneak over to another window, hearing the brat and the pig inside, and Goku is explaining the Dragon Balls to Oolong. Yamcha and Pu'er overhear this, and decide they will steal the Dragon Balls, and Yamcha can use the balls to overcome his fear of girls. Pu'er says he could rule the world or have great wealth, but Yamcha says he is not interested in that. He wants to get married. Back inside, Oolong is not all that interested, but Goku wants to see the dragon, plus the search is good training and fun. Oolong thinks he is a weirdo, and says all he is interested in is women. Goku suggests that Oolong could tell the dragon that he wants a woman, so Oolong thinks he is smart. Goku does not understand why he likes women so much, and asks Oolong if he knows that women do not even have balls. And then Bulma shows up and whacks Goku on the head. She is wrapped in a towel, and yells at Oolong about these pajamas being too small for her. She will have to sleep naked, and she wants her clothes washed by tomorrow.

Oolong decides to give her and Goku some juice, and then chuckles as they drink it. Goku does not like the taste, but Oolong insists it will make him stronger. Bulma then heads upstairs to go to bed, and yells for them to sleep downstairs, especially Oolong (she will call out "Pee-Pee Pee-Pee!" again). Oolong thinks she has a great body, but a bad personality, and Goku passes out on the couch. Oolong thinks it is great that the sleeping medicine he put in the juice has worked, and decides to head upstairs to feel up that damned woman.

Pu'er looks inside, and sees that the woman is upstairs, so Yamcha tells him to turn into a key. Pu'er does so, and Yamcha uses the key to slowly unlock the camper door, as Oolong heads upstairs. They rush inside, and notice Goku is out for the night, but there is no sign of the pig. So, Yamcha tells Pu'er to change into the brat, and lure the woman and the pig outside. Oolong hears some noises below, and cannot believe Goku is awake. He sees "Goku" coming up the stairs, so he panics, transforms into Bulma, and completely covers the real Bulma up in the blanket. "Bulma" greets Goku-chan, and tells "Goku" that Oolong went for a walk. "Goku" then convinces "Bulma" to go outside, and Yamcha notices them leave. Yamcha then heads upstairs, figuring that is where they had the Dragon Balls, and sees the lumpy blanket, thinking it must be where the Dragon Balls are. He pulls up the blanket…

A distance away from the camper, "Goku" changes back into Pu'er, thinking he has tricked her. However, "Bulma" changes back into Oolong, and the two of them start arguing. Pu'er thinks that if Oolong is out here, then… Yamcha slowly stumbles away from the camper wide-eyed and in a daze, chanting "one breast… two breasts…" Pu'er leads him away, saying they will call it a day.
