Dragon Ball Super, Vol. 17: God of Destruction Power - Paperback

by Akira Toriyama (Author), Toyotarou (Illustrator)

Goku's adventure from the best-selling classic manga Dragon Ball continues in this new series written by Akira Toriyama himself!

Ever since Goku became Earth's greatest hero and gathered the seven Dragon Balls to defeat the evil Boo, his life on Earth has grown a little dull. But new threats loom overhead, and Goku and his friends will have to defend the planet once again in this continuation of Akira Toriyama's best-selling series, Dragon Ball!

The battle between Granolah, Goku, and Vegeta continues on planet Cereal. Despite this battle being fueled by the lies and manipulation of the Heeters, Granolah's burning drive for revenge has him convinced that this is a fight worth dying for--and that's exactly what the Heeters want. Sensing something is amiss, Vegeta begins to piece together the mystery of why Granolah hates the Saiyans so much. But will he be able to figure out the truth in time? And will Granolah even be willing to listen?!
