Fortuneteller Baba Saga[]
Sky Dragon losing to Goku in the King Wonton's Royal Match
Sky Dragon and his brother Rising Dragon were enemies with the Chin-Star School and had a grudge against Chin Taiken, wanting to defeat him. When Goku goes into town to get medicine for Master Chin, he ends up fighting Rising Dragon and winning, but then Sky Dragon beats Goku in a sneak attack.
The next day, at King Wonton's Royal Match, Goku takes Master Chin's place, angering Sky Dragon. In their match, Sky Dragon spun at high speeds towards Goku, attacking him with his Panther-Cyclone technique. Sky Dragon has the upper hand for most of the fight, and the two use variations of the Afterimage Technique. It is this attack in midair that Goku uses to eventually defeat Sky Dragon, despite suffering from the effects of a laxative. Afterwards, Sky Dragon expresses respect towards Goku and befriends Master Chin's school.

Years later, Sky Dragon enters the Intergalactic World Tournament. He makes it to the final eight, but he is defeated by Doskoi in the Quarter Finals, being thrown out of the ring. However, this character is only named Sky Dragon in the Funimation dub, and is a separate character known as Kanfoon (カンフーン Kanfūn) in the Japanese version.
Power[]
- Anime
He is said to be an extremely powerful fighter of the kingdom. He can easily defeat his opponents that are his students without his arms or legs as he can use his head to knock them out. He took on Goku for a short period of time, and he proved to do quite well even though Goku was getting ill effects by the poisoned food he ate but he still lost at end. He could be stronger than his rival or equal in strength though it is unknown for sure since his rival was sick and couldn't really show his strength against him.
Techniques and Special Abilities[]

- Rapid Velocity Technique – In a fashion similar to Tien Shinhan's Machine Gun Punch, Sky Dragon swings his arms so fast they appear to be windmills on his shoulder and pummels his opponent too many times to count.
- Panther-Cyclone – Sky Dragon's ultimate technique. He used it during King Wonton's Royal Match.
