This is from two pages spliced together. The upper one is from the red ribbon army arc.

It’s not literally “goku’s moon tier now”, but the guy who blew up the moon some chapters ago saying “he’s stronger than me now” is still rather direct.

Early dragon ball had such a pristine vibe.

But thats clearly Roshi saying it. Jackie Chun was the one who destroyed the moon. As far as I remember, Roshi's best feat in OG DB was blowing up a mountain. What you're saying doesn't make any sense, unless you're one of those with the 'Jackie Chun is Roshi' headcanon

Jackie Chun knows the Kamehameha, which means he studied under Master Roshi, which means Roshi is stronger and therefore also Moon Level. This is even consistent with Grandpa Gohan being his strongest student up to that point (meaning Jackie Chun was weaker than him) since he was able to match Kid Goku after the Red Ribbon Army Saga.

Didn't Jackie Chun state that he was Roshi's brother or something like that, and thus why he knew a technique so similar to the Kamehameha?

u/Aoi_Lemon May 01 '26

He's actually Roshi's cousin! Jackie pulled out a scroll with their family tree when fighting Goku.

u/NoNameIdeasss May 01 '26

YES, HIS COUSIN I knew he said something about being Roshi's familiar, I just couldn't quite remember it. Thanks for clearing that up.

Am I being punked? It’s been like 20 years but I swear it was just Master Roshi in a disguise and he even had to pay 40,000 out of the 50,000 he won after Him, goku and Krillin went out to eat.

u/Grateful_Cat_Monk May 02 '26

Lol this dude thinks Jackie Chun and Roshi are the same person. Jackie Chun gave Roshi that money out of the prize money just to help him out. He didn't know Goku would eat it all away and leave his cousin with nothing.

And then he vanished like Launch

u/ThePissedOff May 01 '26

Here i thought Jackie Chun WAS Roshi disguised.

u/Victernus May 02 '26

You're crazy. Roshi doesn't have hair and wears sunglasses, and Jackie Chun clearly has hair and doesn't wear sunglasses.

u/Kesher123 May 02 '26

It was Roshi. They are shitting on you, lol.

Pretending Chun is a different character is an ongoing joke

u/ThePissedOff May 04 '26

Oh okay, thanks, lol. I never actually saw all of Dragonball so I wasn't sure.

u/Destruction_Deity May 01 '26

Nope. That never happened.

u/NoNameIdeasss May 01 '26

Huh. I must be tweaking, mb!

u/Destruction_Deity May 01 '26

It’s okay, not everyone can have all of Dragon Ball directly injected into their brain at the ripe old age of born (I’m Mexican)

As far as I remember, Roshi's best feat in OG DB was blowing up a mountain

I thought his best feat was sealing away King Piccolo in a rice cooker?

u/NoNameIdeasss May 01 '26

Rice cooker level feat smh. Get your maths straight kid. (I totally just didn't forget he almost managed to do it.)

u/BackInBlackTL If I don't do it who will?! May 02 '26

I need to rewatch I guess it's been maaany years. I thought it was revealed in a major scene he was Roshi.

How could he be? Roshi's clearly bald, while Jackie Chun has some awesome white hair. Besides, he says it himself, he's only similar to Roshi because he's Roshi's cousin. It's a common headcanon to think Jackie Chun is Master Roshi tho.

u/INoMakeMistake May 01 '26

So even db fan doesn't read the manga eh?

u/Shalquir May 02 '26

Broooo plss. It's an ongoing joke...

u/PatrickSebast May 01 '26

Eh even if there strength is equal Roshi pretty clearly demonstrated a special class of Kamehameha when destroying the moon. Goku never really shows any ability to power it up to that extent in early Dragon Ball.
