Taopaipai
The series of cool older guys continues with everyone's favorite, Taopaipai!
Apparently he's 291 years old in his very first appearance, but he certainly doesn't look it...
I wonder if we'll ever find out the secret behind the long lifespans of the Kamesennin siblings and the Tsurusennin siblings?
— Toyotarou
This is a special series where we feature sketches drawn by Toyotarou, the co-creator of V Jump's ongoing series Dragon Ball Super!
This illustration features "Taopaipai"!
The deadliest assassin in the world, at one point in the story he was hired by the Red Ribbon Army. After his defeat at the hands of his younger fellow disciple, Tenshinhan, he and Tsurusennin disappear, never to be seen again. The reason for his abnormally long lifespan and his current whereabouts remain a mystery to this day!
