Biography

Dragon Ball

Buyon was the hideous, blubbery, pink tenant of Muscle Tower's fifth floor – only accessible via a trapdoor on the sixth floor. Initially, Buyon appeared to be a seemingly indestructible threat to Son Goku and Artificial Human No. 8 as every technique Goku used against him, from a Kamehameha to his belly to a kick to his face, was bounced back effortlessly by his lard. The monster could also cast electrical blasts from his antennae. (In Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo, Buyon also could attack using his long tongue). Buyon apparently fed on cattle supplied by his keepers. He came close to devouring Goku and No. 8 during their encounter. Through a long and tiring process, Goku eventually realized that Buyon was susceptible to the cold. After Goku knocked a small hole into a wall and let in the freezing air, Buyon froze solid. Goku then struck the monster with a hard enough punch to shatter him into pieces.
