Story

Emperor Pilaf summons a more powerful red dragon with the Black Star Dragon Balls and Goku is accidentally turned back into a child. Those Dragon Balls will destroy Earth unless they are gathered within a year, so Goku sets off across the universe with his granddaughter Pan and Trunks, eventually running into the Tuffle parasite Baby.
