The Statue

Meanwhile, General Blue, Bulma, and Krillin make it to the surface (General Blue stays in the water so he will not be seen). There are three treasure chests. But when they get there, a statue turns on by itself. Octopapa tries to hit Goku with his tentacles but none hit him. The octopus grabs him and says he is going to eat him.

Krillin and Bulma finding the pirate treasure

The statue throws swords everywhere. Bulma hides. Krillin gets one of the swords out of the ground and hits the other swords with it. One comes out of its face and heades for Krillin. The octopus tenderizes Goku. Goku gets a large rock and throws it at his snout thinking it is his mouth. Octopapa destroys it and then shows Goku his mouth. He is ready to eat. Krillin knocks the sword away. The statue is out of swords. Krillin checks the middle chest. A pirate dummy comes out and shoots bullets. Goku manages to do one more attack: the Kamehameha, which defeats and roasts Octopapa. Goku is starving and decides to eat it.

Bulma is instantly attracted to General Blue

The dummy runs out of bullets. Bulma heads for another chest. It has a key in it. They see a key hole in the statue. They put it in and gold comes out. General Blue then comes out of the water to get the gold. Bulma instantly declares her attraction for General Blue, although Blue does not concur with her feelings as he does not pay her any mind, and if anything expresses disgust with her and yells at her to get away from him. Bulma and Krillin then deduce that General Blue is prudish and scares very easily especially for his size, with Blue threatening that neither of them will find him funny once they are dead and derisively refers to Krillin as a cueball when asking if he has a death wish. Krillin then warns him that just because Blue is tall and built doesn't mean he can't be stomped by him, with Blue asking if he thinks so, with Krillin answering that he knows so. Krillin decided to fight him.

While Goku is eating, he hears noises of Krillin getting hurt. He goes in the water to get to him. General Blue pounds Krillin and bangs him into walls. He then mocks Krillin's white underwear and asks if he's wearing a diaper. Bulma then tries to get Krillin to surrender, but Krillin refuses, citing he's fine overall and that Blue's just a big sissy. Blue, hearing this remark, then tells Krillin to bring it on while referring to him as "diaper man". However, Blue dodges all of Krillin's attacks and then punches him, to Bulma's horror. Eventually, Krillin manages to throw one kick in the face. General Blue initially wonders how Krillin can even hope to hurt something "beautiful", until he realizes the kick was potent enough to give him a nosebleed. He then is crying since it hurt his "beautiful" face, and gets angry. Krillin declares that Blue is strange after that tirade, with Blue declaring Krillin to be a murderer for "killing his perfect looks," with Krillin taunting Blue to give him his best shot. Blue is so angry, he uses his telekinetic technique, called Look into my eyes!, so Krillin will not be able to move. Bulma then asks what happened, with Krillin stating that Blue did something with his eyes to force him to freeze up, with General Blue admitting he should have mentioned his special ability earlier. Bulma then decries him as cheating, with General Blue stating that in a fight to the death, there are no rules save for the fact that the winner is the one who survives the battle. General Blue bangs him into walls, and then gets a rock to kill Krillin, taunting Krillin about how that most certainly would have hurt. He then notices that the cave is on the verge of collapsing, and decides he needs to finish them quickly so he can find the Dragon Ball. Bulma tries once more to seduce Blue, but Blue expresses disgust, citing that her actions will give him nightmares. Realizing that her attempts will not work, she tries to intimidate Blue by claiming her being powerful, but Blue threatens her in turn, admitting that he did consider letting her go free, but because of her actions, he will make sure to deal with her, with Blue also saying yes when Bulma says no in fear, before deciding to kill Krillin first due to his earlier injury. Bulma then tried to persuade Blue to spare them because they have some Dragon Balls and offers them to him if he lets them go free, but he refuses her offer, since he prefers to take what he wants rather than make deals. He then declares no more interruptions and makes clear to kill Krillin (while referring to his head as splitting open a coconut), and also telling Krillin to be brave and smile when the latter weakly says Goku's name. Just before he could do so, Goku arrives. Goku then asks if Blue was able to beat Krillin. Blue initially is baffled about the name until he realizes he's referring to the man he called "diapers" and says he put him out easily enough. As the fight is about to begin, the room begins to shake.

Trivia

  • Some of the shots of Goku show him running down a hallway curving counter-clockwise, when he is in fact running clockwise. Another shot shows a branch in the hallway behind him.
  • What Krillin did exactly to the statue isn't elaborated on; he is not holding his original sword when the scene cuts back to him, so he most likely whacked the statue's sword away like he did earlier before throwing his into the statue's head.
  • The scenes with General Blue encountering Krillin and Bulma are altered in the dub to omit their accusations of Blue being homosexual. In order:
    • After Blue ignores Bulma's advances with some fear, Bulma calls Blue a "prude," while Krillin teases that Blue "scares easily for a big guy."
    • After Blue starts complaining about his nosebleed, Krillin commented that Blue is weird.
    • When Bulma fails again to seduce Blue, she then starts pretending that she is a "powerful sumo wrestler" rather than saying she is a man.
  • In his fight with General Blue, Krillin becomes the first person to make him bleed in combat.
