Part One
The Man
Son Gokou, or Goku in America, is one of the last of the former glorious race known as the Saiya-jin, jin means person in Japanese therefore he's a Saiya person, and in America the race is called the Saiyans. He is almost without a doubt, the strongest person in the entire universe! The only people that could even rival him at the end of Dragon Ball Z, not GT mind you, would be his son, Gohan, his friend/foe, Prince Vegita, and of course, Super and Little Buu, the ultimate evil. However, Gokou didn't get like this overnite! Him being a Saiya-jin helped because Saiya-jin were almost the ultimate race. They were born with incredible power that dwarfs any human. But, that still wasn't enough.

Through his life, Gokou has had many trainers. First was the man that found him in the middle of the woods in a Saiya-jin space pod, Gohan. Gohan adopted Gokou and trained him in martial arts. Second was the perverted Kamesennin, or Master Roshi in the US. He was once Earth's strongest man. He took Gokou and a little monk called Kuririn under his wing. After this training, Gokou sprouted and became incredibly strong. Then, two less known trainers were the cat Karin and Kami. Next was the always popular Kaiousamma, or King Kai here. He taught Gokou Kaiou-ken, a tecnique that doubles your speed, strength, and senses. He also taught Gokou his ultimate attack, the Spirit Bomb or Genki Dama. This attack not only nearly kills Vegita and Freeza, but also kills Little Buu. And Gokou's final trainer, himself. Gokou kicks his own butt to train himself. He works and works and finally, pushes himself right over the edge and becomes the ultimate fighter.

Gokou has a rather large family! First of all is his wife Chi-chi. These two met in the very begining of the series. The towering Ox King promised Gokou that if he rescued his daughter and brought Mutenroshi to his castle, he could have his daughter's, Chi-chi's, hand in marriage. Gokou of course did the preceding tasks and then left in search of the other Dragon Balls with his friends. Later on during the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai, (23rd World Martial Arts Tournament), Gokou is all grown up and still a bachelor. However, a woman with long black hair calls his attention. He doesn't recognize her and she angrily stomps off. Later on they're paired together to fight. Gokou finds out that she is remarkably strong, but needless to say, no match for Gokou. She then jogs his memory after the match and Gokou realizes that this is the little girl he met so many years ago! Chi-chi! She asks Gokou if he wants to get married. Gokou says he doesn't know what kind of food that is, Gokou's pretty numb. She gets ticked but then the proccess is explained to Gokou and he says, "Sure, why not?".

Next is Son Gohan, Gokou and Chi-chi's first child. He starts out very shy, but then turns out to be even stronger than his father, for a while. However, due to Chi-chi's influence of studies, at the end of the series, he turns into a dressed up nerd with glasses. However, he's the stongest nerd you'll ever see!!

Son Goten is Chi-chi and Gokou's last child. He is overwhelmingly cute with an adorable open mouth smile almost always on his face. He is the spitting image of his father. However, he was born a couple months after Gokou died. He finally gets to see his father at a Tenkaichi Budokai Tournament when he's seven. At first he's a little scared of his father, but, Gokou was only brought back to life for twenty-four hours by Uranai Baba, Kamesennin's sister. When Baba comes for Gokou, Goten's eyes start to well up with tears. Then, Mr. Stupid, Gokou says, "Don't worry, you'll see me again when you die". Goten and everyone there bursts into tears in a very touching scene.

Bardock is Gokou's father from long ago. Bardock was once an evil Saiya-jin like all the rest. He plundered planets with his asscociates of death. On one planet they demolished, there was one survivor left that they didn't know about. He jumped out of the rubble before Bardock left the planet and hit him in the back of the neck. He told Bardock to suffer because he just gave him the power to see the future. Bardock's friends retaliated by blasting the survivor into non-existence. They brought Bardock back to planet Vegita, the home planet of the Saiya-jin. He recovered from the desperate assault of the survivor that caused him to fall into a comma filled with horrible images. He finally realizes that in his visions it's his home planet being destroyed by none other than Freeza. He tries desperately to try to save his planet in a battle in the sky with thousands of Freeza's men, but it is to no avail as Freeza raises a finger, forms an enourmous ball of energy, and throws it at planet Vegita. Before he dies he sees one last image, his son that he had forsaken, Kakarroto. (Kakarroto is Gokou's Saiya-jin name.) He sees Kakarroto on a strange planet about to battle Freeza. He talks to his two day old son in a dream on his way to Earth in a tiny space pod to conquer it when he grows up. He tells him to avenge him and get revenge for all Saiya-jin when he gets older. Somewhere, deep in space, three more Saiya-jin are still alive. They are, Nappa, Raditzu, and Prince of the Saiya-jin, Vegita.

Allright, enough about family, let's get to Gokou himself. Gokou in the beginning of the series of Dragon Ball is 12 years old. At the end of Dragon Ball Z he's 48 years old, (that's counting his year in the Room of Spirit and Time), but besides looking taller and more mature, his overall appearance and personality never changed much during the series. However, in Dragon Ball GT (Grand Tour) he looks like a little kid again because that annoying Emperor Pilaf wished him back to being a kid again. Gokou has one major outfit throughout Dragon Ball, and that is, of course, his orange gi. The symbol on the front and back change periodically depending on who has trained him. The only other major attire is the blue gi he wore when he was a kid, and the blue shirt and yellow ochre pants he wears at the end of DBZ and all through DBGT.

Gokou is as good as any person gets! He's not very smart, but he's a brilliant fighter. He has no evil what so ever in him or he probably would've died several times due to certain circumstances. He cares for people and animals everywhere or he would've never gotten into any of his famous fights. He has a great loving family, even though Chi-chi has her over-protective moments. Most of all, he's the strongest guy in the univerese with the possible exception of Bebi Vegita and Ii Shenron. Gokou is basically the supreme mortal. He's every quality a human wants all wrapped up into one package.

Fights!
During his life, Gokou has been in many many fights. About 84 to be exact. These are some of his more memorable fights. Gokou vs the big fish! Who can forget the very first fight Gokou was in against that giant blue fish. Gokou vs the giant bear! The bear has a name but I don't recall it. This is when he first uses his Janken (paper/scissors) move. Gokou vs Yamcha! This was the first great battle in the series. Gokou vs Gyuu Maou, or Ox King! Even though this fight lasted a couple of seconds, it was still pretty funny. Gokou vs Oyabun, or Boss Rabbit! This was when Gokou faced off against the rabbit that turned people into carrots. Gokou vs Pilaf, Shao, and Mai! Here, Gokou first turns into an ape and demolishes Pilaf's great castle. Gokou vs Jackie Chun! When Gokou faces off against a disguised Kamesennin at his first Tenkaichi Budokai. This was a huge fight between Gokou and Jackie Chun (Kamesennin). Gokou vs Murasaki the ninja! This wasn't so much a big fight but it was long and funny. Gokou vs Blue Shogun! Gokou faces off, in a long battle, against a very powerful, and very gay, member of the Red Ribbon Army. This fight leads them through Dr. Slump's Penguin Village. That's the town in Akira Toriyama's other manga. Gokou vs Tao-pie pie! This is an interesting fight because when Gokou first faces the assasin, he loses. However, he trains at the top of Karin Tower (not Kami's Tower) and beats him three days later. Gokou vs Black! In this battle Gokou beats the new leader of the Red Ribbon Army. This is officially the last battle with the Red Ribbon Army. Gokou vs Uranai Baba's spirits! Uranai Baba is Kamesennin' sister. She's a witch that can tell you your future for somewhere around ten billion zeni (Dragon Ball's unit of money). If you don't pay you have to fight her spirits. Gokou and his friends almost trash all of them until it comes down to the last spirit, it's Gokou's grandpa. From now on, almost every fight is incredibly long and dramatic, some lasting hundreds of pages in the manga! These fights are what, in my opinion, MADE Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z.

Gokou vs Tenshinhan!
Better known as Tien in the US, this was a long and very tense battle. It's actually Akira Toriyama's favorite battle out of all the fights. The reason being is because Gokou and Tenshinhan's power level's are exactly the same. Here's what happens. Gokou, still a young boy, and his friends are all at the 22 Tenkaichi Budokai. Gokou beats all of his opponents easily, except for Kuririn because he cheats and pulls Gokou's tail, but this no longer paralyzes Gokou because as he became stronger, so did his tail. Then he dissapears and starts jumping around the ring, then reappears right in front of Kuririn. Kuririn is so surprised he jumps right out of the ring. Meanwhile, the man who trained with Kamesennin, when they were boys, is there. He also happens to be Tao-pai-pai's brother and he's very upset about his brother's death. But as is with all villians, he lets someone else do the dirty work. He has his two students with him, Chaozu and Tenshinhan. These two fighters each have a unique ability. Chaozu is telepathic and can hold opponents down by concentrating on them. Tenshinhan has a mysterious third eye. Chaozu is defeated by Kuririn before his defeat at Gokou's hand's, however, Tenshinhan only manages to advance by luck because he's paired with Jackie Chun. Jackie steps out of bounds after some fighting and tells Tenshinhan he knows a lot of tricks and it's been fun. When everyone else has been defeated, the final round belongs to Gokou and Tenshinhan. They start off very well matched, but most amazing is their speed. They move so incredibly that it's difficult at times to see them. Trading punch for punch and kick for kick they begin to get angrier and angrier at each other. Gokou tries a move called a one pattern, where you move so fast you leave an image behind. Tenshinhan employs his third eye and easily spots the real Gokou. Tenshinhan use an attack called his volleyball technique. He spikes Gokou into the ground and everyone thinks he's dead but Gokou slowly rises up. They go back at it again, wearing each down now. Tenshinhan uses an attack called Taiyou-ken that reflects the suns energy into his opponents eyes. He rushes Gokou while he's blinded by the attack, but instead, he gets dropped by Gokou. It turns out he took Kamesennin's sunglasses. Tsurusennin (Tenshinhan's trainer) starts to get worried so he tells Chaozu to hold Gokou down telepathically. Suddenly, Gokou is frozen and dropped to the ground. He floats up as Chaozu tries to throw him out of the ring with his mind. Gokou twice uses a Kame Hame Ha to propel himself back into the ring. Tsurrusennin tells Tenshinhan to kill Gokou, but Tenshinhan screams out and says he can't do it because he's not an assassin. Tsurusennin is going to kill Chaozu for Tenshinhan's treason but Kamesennin blast him out of the place with a Kame Hame Ha. Now the fighting resumes. Tenshinhan surprises everyone by growing four more arms and attacking Gokou. Then Gokou boasts that he can grow eight ( even though he doesn't grow them like Tenshinhan, his arms move reall fast so it looks like there's eight). Tenshinhan is now MAJORLY pissed off at Gokou. Tenshinhan puts his hands in front off him and forms an open triangle with his hands. Chaozu screams at him to stop but he continues gathering energy for the attack. Kamesennin knows what the attack is. It's called the Kikouhou. A suicidal attack that's so powerful if a slight error is made in doing it, it could kill the target as well as the attacker. Chaoz is praying, Kamesennin doesn't know what will happen, most of all , Gokou doesn't know what to do. Almost everything is silent when Tenshinhan screams out, "KIKOUHOU!". After the blast the ring is demolished and neither fighter is seen, but then everyone looks up. They're both in the air. Gokou avoided the blast. However, Tenshinhan can float and Gokou can't, the ring is gone so whoever lands first loses. Gokou powers up and prepares a final Kame Hame Ha. Tenshinhan gloats saying he can easily handle the blast and stay afloat. At the last second Gokou fires his blast, but not at Tenshinhan, at the ground. Gokou smashes into Tenshinhan with the force of the blast behind him completely taking him by surprise. Tenshinhan and Gokou are now fully spent. Whoever lands first loses. Tenshinhan being bigger (do the math) falls faster and it looks like Gokou will land seconds behind him making him the winner! But that doesn't happen. At the last second, a truck zooms by, Gokou wings it and that makes him fall to the ground two seconds before Tenshinhan. Oh Well! Better luck next time!

Gokou vs Piccolo Daimaou!
This was a very much anticipated battle in the series. Everyone hated Piccolo Daimou's guts because he killed Kamesennin and Chaozu. Not only that, one of his minions killed Kuririn. Here's the setting, Piccolo is just about to kill Tenshinhan when Gokou arrives on the scene. Gokou had just gotten back from Karin's Tower. Gokou knew that Piccolo was strong since they'd fought once before, so he went to drink Karin's Super Holy Water. This water will make a person incredibly powerful, however, there are two drawbacks. The first drawback is, it doen't take effect for a long time, and second, it could kill you! Gokou drank the water, and was on the floor for six hours in agony. Eventually he overcomes and rides into battle on his cloud. Prior to this, Tenshinhan was trying to seal Piccolo in the Denshi jar. The jar that Piccolo was originally contained in before Emperor Pilaf let him out. Piccolo can be sealed in the jar by an attack called the Mafuba. The downside to the attack is, it kills you when you complete it. Piccolo stops Tenshinhan before he can do it and beats the snot out of him.
Okay, so Gokou arrives and Piccolo throws Tenshinhan to the side. Piccolo tells his minion, Drum, to kill Gokou. Drum dies quickly. Piccolo boasts that he'll kill Gokou in five seconds since he has a city to destroy. Gokou doesn't think so. Piccolo comes out with a big attack but Gokou blocks it as Tenshinhan cheers him on. Gokou then starts to beat up Piccolo and comments that his five seconds are up. This pisses Piccolo off. Piccolo attacks again but Gokou brushes it off easily. Gokou then hits Piccolo once, sending him flying into his last minion, Piano, and killing him. Piccolo and Gokou go at it again exchanging punch for punch. Gokou is pretty dissapointed by Piccolo, so he tells him to fight at full power. He says he'll fight at full power also. Piccolo agrees with him. Piccolo powers himself up and Tenshinhan is overwhelmed by Piccolo's enourmous energy at full power. Gokou says Piccolo does have great power, but so does he. They fight some more and Piccolo smashes Gokou into the ground creating a crater. Piccolo gloats over his victory while Tenshinhan is sad, but prepares to fight Piccolo next, even though he knows he can't win. All of a sudden in the distance they both hear a voice, " Ka-Me-Ha-Me ", Gokou jumps up and screams,"HA!". Piccolo simply laughs at the trick and prepares to block it, when Gokou changes the direction of the beam and smashes Piccolo. This (of course) didn't kill Piccolo because it wasn't at full strength. Gokou looks at the downed Piccolo and tells him to stand up. This pushes Piccolo over the edge! He is now Majorly pissed and powers up to his "real power". Gokou pulls out his Nyoibi staff, but Piccolo trashes it with a blast from his fingers. Piccolo then laughs and detroys an entire block by exploding energy out from inside of him! He laughs again thinking he has won. Wrong! He looks above him and sees Tenshinhan holding Gokou. Tenshinhan took the blast and is almost completely dead. Gokou thanks him and quickly returns to battle even though he though he himself is almost dead. He still says he has a chance to win. Piccolo can't believe his boast so he prepares another explosion blast and gets it off. Now there's a HUGE crater. But, at the bottom a little vioce calls out for his cloud, "Kintoen". Piccolo is totally floored. He thought that none could stand up to his power. Piccolo figures he has to win by cheating. reaches over to the side and picks up Tien by his head. If Gokou moves he'll crush his skull. Tenshinhan, noblely, tells Gokou to attack anyway, but he can't. Piccolo thinks this is funny and levitates some rocks. He mentally hurls the first rock at Gokou and shreds his arm. The second rock takes out Gokou's good leg causing him to fall. Piccolo thinks it's hysterical that Gokou can't stand up now that both of his legs are shot. Piccolo tosses Tien aside and prepares for the final blow. Meanwhile, Gokou powers up for a Kame-Hame-Ha with one hand. Piccolo yells out, "Shinu!", (Die!). They both clash and Gokou is now totally spent. Piccolo prepares to go in for the kill, but then, the Super Holy Water kicks in. Gokou leaps, give a desperate scream, and propels himself straight through Piccolo's chest with a Kame Hame Ha. Piccolo spits up blood, but before he dies, he spits out an egg, (Namecks are assexual, meaning they can reproduce without a female). The egg goes far into the mountains. Piccolo pleads for his son to one day avenge him, and with that, Piccolo the Demon King, (Daimou), dies. Gokou falls to the ground and is totally spent. He can barely lift his eyelids. Yajirobe, who just arrived, takes Gokou to Karin Tower to give him Senzu beans.

Gokou vs Ma Junior
( Demon Junior ) a.k.a the Piccolo we all know and love! This memorable fight takes place during the 23 Tenkaichi Budokai. It's the final round of the tournament, and it's between Gokou and Piccolo. This fight was very anticipated, because, now Gokou would get and chance to show off his new skills he learned at Kami's Tower. You see, Gokou traveled up to Kami's Tower after the fight with Piccolo Daimou. Gokou trained up there for several years. When he comes back down to Earth, he's taller, but still young looking. Anyhow, this battle was also looked forward to because it involves Piccolo Daimou's son, Piccolo! And as you should remember Piccolo Daimou's dying words to his son were to avenge him by killing Gokou. Obviosly, Piccolo would also be naturally pissed at Gokou for killing his father, duh. Piccolo entered the tournament under the name of Ma Junior so no one would think anything of him. If he entered under the name Piccolo, everyone would remember the menace from years ago and flee. Alright, now that we got the backround straight, on with the fight!
Piccolo had just finished fighting Kami, and sealed him in the ancient Denshi Jar, (I'll explain in my Piccolo biography). After sealing him in the jar, he swallows it. This creates a dilemna because Piccolo and Kami are two halves of the same person. If Gokou kils Piccolo, then Kami will also die. Henceforth, Gokou must retrieve the Denshi Jar from Piccolo so Kami can get out, but he can't kill Piccolo. The final round is about to begin between G
