Pirate robot

From Dragon Ball Wiki, the ''Dragon Ball'' encyclopedia

The Pirate Robot is a powerful robot created by pirates to guard their treasure.

[edit] Overview

When Goku, Krillin, and Bulma arrived at the pirate lair looking for the treasure and the Dragonball, the robot attacked them. The robot appears to only be able to say three things : "argh maytes", "yo ho ho" and "shiver me timbers" (in the original Japanese version it has no phrases). It was by far the most powerful villain up to this point in the series as it could easily take dozens of punches from Goku and Krillin, and unlike Major Metallitron, it did not take any large damage. At one point he is hit by a canon but even after that and being involved in an explosive truck, it kept all of his body parts.It was armed with a machine gun and a sword which krillin later destroyed. The robot was eventually destroyed by Goku when he punched through it's head and destroyed the power core.

[edit] Trivia

The design of the Cyclopian Guards in Return of Cooler shares a slight resemblance with the Pirate Robot. In addition, the Cyclopian Guards could be defeated by an opponent focusing their power into one point of attack, much like the Pirate Robot.
