| The Tenkaichi Buduokai is the ultimate gathering for the strongest martial artists from around the world. It takes place every 3 years on May 7th. Although this is not true for some tournaments. The 24th tournament was delayed due to the stadium being rebuilt after Piccolo destroyed it. Also the 25th was interrupted for the Z Senshi by arrival of Babadi. Japanese Translation Ten - Heavens Kai - Under Ichi - First Bu - Way Of Duo - Fighting Kai - Meeting Literally translated this means "Heavens Under First Way Of Fighting Meeting". I know your probabaly thinking "What the hell?!?", but allow me to explain. Take the first part, what is under the heavens? The earth! So taken with "first" this means "The World's Best". Next is "Way of Fighting Meeting". Well a way of fighting in DBZ is martial arts, and this particular martial arts meeting is a tournament. So all together Tenkaichi Buduokai means "The World's Best Martial Arts Tournament" The Rules You disqualified if you: -Use a forign object or weapon -Attack the eyes or the "vunerables" -Leave during the tournament -Kill your opponent You lose if you: -Are knocked unconsious -You start to cry -Are down for a count of 10 -Are knocked out of the ring -Give up Tournament Results 21st Tenkaichi Buduokai - May 7th 750 A.D.
