Summary

Goku and Bulma learning about Fry-Pan Mountain.

The Ox-King asking Goku where his cloud came from.

Two days after the Dragon Ball Gang received the new car from Yamucha, they finally ended up at Fire Mountain. Once they saw it in the distance, Oolong told Son Goku and Bulma Brief about how the castle at the top was guarded by the Ox-King, who could not get into his own castle and killed anybody who went near it.

Yamucha and Puar, who were approaching as well, came into contact with a seemingly defenseless young girl was was running away from a T-Rex. The girl threw the blade of her helmet at the Dinosaur and decapitated. She then blew up the remains with a laser in her helmet. When she saw Yamucha, she tried to attack him out of fear, but he easily knocked her out since he was not shy of girls who were too young.

Over at the base of Fire Mountain, Goku flew off on the Kinto Un to try to look for a way to get to the castle. While Bulma and Oolong were left behind, they suddenly encountered the Ox-King. He asked them what they were doing near his area and if they were after his treasure. Although they were scared, they tried to convince him that they were not after his treasure, but Goku quickly returned and explicitly said that he could not find a way to break into the castle. Rather than attacking them, the Ox-King asked Goku if he had gotten that cloud from his martial arts master, Turtle Hermit.
