If the creator allows it, the Dragon Balls can be used even if a year has not passed this happens only once in the series, when Kami allowed Goku and his friends to revive all people killed by King Piccolo, even though it had only been a few days since King Piccolo wished to restore his youth. Without a model of the dragon and a set of Dragon Balls (in its plain rock form), it would take about 100 days to create the Dragon Balls (as mentioned by Dende before he modified them). They are also inactive if their creator dies, such as in Future Trunks' alternate timeline, due to Future Piccolo's death. The Dragon Balls are inactive if the model of the dragon breaks if the dragon is destroyed, the model breaks.

A big problem throughout the series is that with any set of Dragon Balls is that their creator must be alive for them to function, otherwise they will be stones for eternity this often results in the Z Fighters protecting their creator with their lives. Restrictions on the Dragon's powers are set by the relative capabilities of the Dragon Ball set's creator. Though the Dragon Balls usually scatter across the Earth after having been used, Goku stops this from happening once by jumping into the air and catching the Four-Star ball before it can fly away at the end of the Fortuneteller Baba Saga. As technology eventually progressed, this became somewhat easier, and became relatively simple with Bulma's invention of the Dragon Radar. To have the opportunity to summon an Eternal Dragon, one must travel all over the globe to retrieve them. Vegeta probably did not know this when he ordered Krillin to destroy one before the Ginyu Force took them in both the manga and the anime, but in the Fusion Saga when Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks was fighting Super Buu, Piccolo said "If you break even one of the balls they can never be used again" which may mean that they are not completely indestructible.ĭragon Balls are difficult to find because they are scattered all over their respective planet ( Earth and a few other planets which have their own set, although the Black-Star Dragon Balls scatter all across the galaxy), and are deactivated for a year after every wish, disguising themselves as stones. It was said by Colonel Silver that the Dragon Balls are unbreakable when he dropped a fake Dragon Ball.
This is likely so that there is a legitimate reason to pursue the Dragon Balls by the protagonists, as they would not have a justification to rely on them if they knew they would never grant a proper wish.ĭragon Balls come in sets of seven with each ball containing the number of stars that signifies its respective number in the set. Also, when a victim is revived from the dead, they are not undead, but rather, are truly alive. For example, when King Piccolo wished for youth, he was not reduced to an infant, but rather, appeared in his prime.
Unlike other forms of fiction that involve wishes being granted, the Dragon Balls seem to grant a wish exactly as the wisher imagined it, rather than warping the wish so that it is technically granted, but ends up making the wisher's life even more difficult. In the Dragon Ball: Bouken Special, the Dragon Ball manga author, Hirohiko araki, explains that there are seven Dragon Balls because there are eight balls in Hakken-Den, a famous Edo-era Japanese novel, and that he would have hated for them to be exactly the same number, so he had the Dragon Balls be seven. 3.4 Negative Energy and the Shadow Dragons.
