In his attempt to rescue Chobi, Gohan is portrayed as a criminal and is pursued by Videl. However, when Chobi's parents attack the city in search of their child, Gohan manages to handle the situation and return Chobi to his parents.

After Gohan spreads word of the tournament to the others, as well as managing to convince Chi-Chi to let him participate himself, Gohan takes a leave of absence from school and begins training with Goten. Gohan is surprised to find that Goten not only possesses great strength, but is also already capable of transforming into a Super Saiyan, although he has yet to learn how to fly. Later, Videl comes around to have Gohan make good on his promise to teach her how to fly using bukū-jutsu, with Gohan starting her off with the basics of learning how to control her energy. Within a day, Videl has managed to learn how to float while Goten has managed to learn how to fly. Following a remark from Gohan, Videl comes back the next day with her hair cut, determined to learn more from Gohan. Meanwhile, Vegeta is also surprised to find that Trunks is also capable of becoming a Super Saiyan, whose strength is slightly higher than Goten's, while Goku trains fiercely in anticipation for the tournament.

After ten days of training, Videl manages to master flight, finally giving Gohan and Goten the opportunity to resume their training for the tournament. On the day of the tournament, Gohan suggests to Vegeta, Goten, and Trunks that they don't use their Super Saiyan forms during the tournament to avoid hassle from the press. Arriving at the island where the tournament will take place, Gohan and the others are greeted by Goku, who the fortune teller Baba has granted 24 hours to stay on Earth, allowing him to meet Goten for the first time, while Piccolo destroys all the cameras in the area to keep Gohan's identity a secret.

While Gohan and Videl wait to take their preliminaries, Goku, Vegeta, and the others go to spectate the junior division, where Goten and Trunks effortlessly progress through each round until they face each other in the final round. The battle gets more and more intense, with Goten and Trunks surprising the audience with advanced techniques and even turning Super Saiyan.

Meanwhile, as Goku and the others get something to eat, they encounter a pair of mysterious participants, Shin and Kibito, who Piccolo determine as not being from Earth.

What's Wrong, Piccolo!! An Unexpected Conclusion to the First Round

As the drawings come to a close, Piccolo is put up against Shin while #18 is up against Satan. After Krillin wins his first match against his opponent, Piccolo and Shin face against each other, but as Piccolo senses an overwhelming power coming from Shin, he decides to forfeit the match before it even begins, feeling Shin's power is far beyond his own. As Videl prepares to go up against a man named Spopovitch, Piccolo learns from Kibito that Shin is actually the Supreme Kai, believed to be even more powerful than the Grand Kai. Videl appears to get the upper hand in her match, but Spopovitch keeps getting up no matter how many times he is knocked down and eventually fights back. Goku suspects something amiss about Spopovitch, which proves true when he continues fighting even after Videl breaks his neck. Videl attempts to use her flight to regain her strength, but Spopovitch follows her into the air and uses energy blasts against her. As Videl refuses to give up despite the beating she is taking, Goku wonders where Spopovitch got his power from.

EP 8

Videl is Worn Out, Gohan's Anger is at its Limit!!

With Spopovich nearly beating Videl to death, Gohan loses his temper and prepares to storm onto the field, but Spopovich's partner, Yamu, convinces Spopovich to end the fight by pushing Videl out of the ring. With Videl heavily injured, Goku uses his instant transmission to receive some senzu beans from Korin, which Gohan gives to Videl to restore her to full health. Gohan, whose identity is revealed to his classmates after his bandana was blown off during his outburst, steps up to face against Kibito, who requests to see Gohan's Super Saiyan transformation. After Piccolo informs the other Z-Fighters of Shin's identity as the Supreme Kai, he orders Gohan to transform. Right after Gohan transforms, Spopovich and Yamu appear and use a device to drain his Super Saiyan energy, leaving him weakened. As Kibito offers to tend to Gohan, the Supreme Kai asks Goku and the others to join him in pursuing the culprits.

EP 9

Secrets of the Terrible Majin, A Black Curtain Appears!!

As Goku and the others set off to join the Supreme Kai, Kibito uses his unique ability to restore Gohan's energy, before the two of them, along with Videl, set off after the others. Along the way, Supreme Kai and Kibito explain to the others about how an evil mage named Babidi is seeking to revive an evil being known as Majin Buu, who was responsible for the death of four Supreme Kais long ago. To accomplish this, he manipulated Spopovich and Yamu to join the tournament and steal Super Saiyan energy needed to break the seal placed on Buu. Unable to push her flight any further, Videl, coming to understand that Gohan was the one who defeated Cell back then, places her faith in him and returns to the tournament grounds, while Gohan and Kibito catch up to Goku's group. Arriving at the site of a buried spaceship, the Z-Fighters lay in watch as Spopovich and Yamu deliver Gohan's energy to Babidi and his partner, Dabura, the Demon King.

EP 10

The Heinous Mage Babidi and King of the Dark Underworld Dabura's Trap

Supreme Kai and Kibito warn Goku and the others about the malicious pair, with Dabura being the strongest being of the underworld and Babidi possessing magic powerful enough to sway him to become his henchman. Having obtained the energy from them and deeming them of no further use, Babidi kills Spopovich with his magic while having his other henchman, Pui Pui, kill Yamu. Having detected the presence of the Z-Fighters, Babidi and Pui Pui head inside of the ship while Dabura attacks the group, immediately killing Kibito and firing his spit at Krillin and Piccolo, turning them into stone. Learning that they can only unpetrify them by killing Dabura, the remaining fighters chase after him into the ship, despite Supreme Kai's warnings. Upon reaching the first floor, they are confronted by Pui Pui, who informs them they must face several floors before they can reach Babidi at the bottom. The Saiyans, however, don't think much of their opponent and play a game of rock-paper-scissors to decide who should fight him, with Vegeta stepping up against him.

EP 11

Don't Underestimate a Super Saiyan! Vegeta and Goku's Full Throttle Power!

As Vegeta easily outmatches Pui Pui in terms of fighting skill, Babidi changes the stage to match that of the high gravity planet, Zun, where Pui Pui is at his top fighting form. However, this makes no difference to Vegeta, who obliterates his opponent and opens the way to the next floor. Believing the Saiyans to not be underestimated, Babidi sends in his next warrior, Yakon, and changes the stage to that of Planet Ankoku, but even with the aid of pitch black darkness, Yakon is no match for Goku's keen senses. When Goku turns Super Saiyan, however, Yakon uses his ability to consume light and sucks in Goku's energy, turning him back into normal. Rather than finding an alternative way to fight, Goku instead feeds him even more Saiyan energy until he explodes from being overloaded, allowing Goku and the others to move onto the next stage.

Who is the World's Greatest?! A Battle Royal Deciding Match!!

As Babidi fears the power of the Saiyans, Dabura decides to face them himself, going inside a meditation chamber to raise his power before his battle.

With Goku and the other members still missing, Satan suggests that a battle royale be held between the remaining contestants; #18, "Mighty Mask", Killa, Jewel, and himself.

Goten and Trunks decide to switch places with Goten now on top, pushing #18 to the point where she starts using energy blasts against them, but she manages to hit back with support from her child. The pair decide to go Super Saiyan and launch a powerful blast at #18, but she manages to dodge it and reveal their true identity, resulting in the pair becoming disqualified, leaving #18 and Satan as the only remaining fighters. As Goten and Trunks come across Videl upon her return, Dabura emerges from his meditation chamber, ready to face off against Gohan.

EP 14

The Star Performer Takes the Stage! Take Down the Demon King!!
