At the airship.
"Cybol was killed when he go after the dragon ball and Piano was killed when he chased after the flying being." King Piccolo said.
"I know both of them are not very strong but still someone dared to kill my children" King Piccolo said in anger as slammed the throne that he was on.
"Tamborine. Can you hear me? It's Piccolo." Piccolo said as he telepathically connects to Tamborine who was out killing Martial artists that participated in the World martial arts tournament.
"Yes sir, I am here," Tamborine replied.
"I have something planned for you," Piccolo said to Tamborine.
"Don't worry master. I have already killed off the 6th and going after the 7th." Tamborine said to Piccolo.
"Cymbal and Piano have been killed," Piccolo said to Tamborine.
"What? Both of them?" Tamborine asked.
"I suspect humans did this. So I want you to go after the two people that killed them and eliminate them." Piccolo said to Tamborine.
"One person's location cannot be tracked down currently but the other one is at WSC2933," Piccolo said as he gives information to Tamborine.
"I understand. I will go there and kill him. Don't worry I won't let you down." Tamborine said as he flew to the location where Piccolo told him about.
He did not know it at the time he was being sent towards his grave.

Dai arrived at the island where World martial arts tournament was held.
However, to his surprise, there was no one there apart from a few people that looked like they were going home. Then he noticed a blond man in shades who was standing under a tree.
Dai immediately recognised who he was.
He has never seen him in real life before but he knows who he is since he has watched the former world martial arts tournament.
The blonde guy acts as an announcer according to his knowledge.
"You. What happened to the tournament? Isn't today the day that the tournament was supposedsed to be held?" Dai asked the announcer.
"Goku? Is that you?" The announcer said as he looked at Dai.
"You know I think one or two times is fine but it's a little annoying when it happens every single time. I am not Goku." Dai said.
"Oh, I am sorry. So who are you." The announcer said to Dai.
"I am here because I wanted to sign up for the tournament," Dai said.
"I am sorry but the tournament is already over." The announcer said as Dai's whole world came crashing down.
He was preparing for this tournament for years and he just missed it because he didn't know the exact time it begins.
Truth to be even if he knows that there will be a new tournament in the next three years it still leaves a hole inside his heart.
"God damn it." He yelled out in frustration as people started to gather around him to look strangely at him.
"Hey isn't that the kid who got the second place?" one of the by-lookers said.
"Don't be down kid. If you still want to participate there is still the next year." the other onlooker said.
Of course, all of them were mistaking Dai for Goku.
Who just had a second consecutive runner-up place finish in the tournament.
"No. This boy here is not Goku." The announcer said as he chased away the crowd.
"Are you okay?" the announcer said as he try to check if the boy was okay.

In a faraway sky, a plane was flying around the world to gather all the dragon balls.
A three-eyed man named Tien Shinhan and Goku's master Roshi were on a trip to gather all the dragon balls before Piccolo could.
"We already have four dragon balls," Tien said to Master Roshi.
"And our enemy still has not noticed us yet. It seemed that they are too busy killing all the martial arts experts." Master Roshi replied.
"We still need three more. The fifth one could be stolen by Krillin's murder." Tien said as he noted the possibility to master roshi.
"If what you said is true we have to be prepared to fight the demons." Master Roshi said.
"This is our only chance. Unless we gather all the dragon balls before Piccolo could and use Shenron to get rid of him. If we failed them we have no chance of defeating him." Master Roshi pointed out the grim reality that they were in.
"You might be right but I still want to take out Piccolo by myself," Tien said to master roshi.
"I understand your frustration but he has unimaginable power. Even if we all attacked at the same time it would probably not be enough. I believe only Shenron could solve this problem. It is our only hope." Master Roshi said to Tien.
"What about the Mafuba? The sealing technique that your master uses to seal him." Tien asked Master Roshi.
"No, it is too risky to be used. It is not something that should bother risky considering how limited our allies against Piccolo are. Goku's where about are unknown, and Yamcha and Chaiotzu are not in the conditions to fight and I doubt there is still another powerful martial artist that can help us to take down Piccolo." Master Roshi said as he immediately rejected Tien's idea.
