Also Known As
First Appearance
Shadow Dragon Saga
Eis Shenron, also known as San Xing Long, is one of the seven Shadow Dragons who emerge when Black Smoke Shenron divides the corrupted Dragon Balls. He is associated with the Three-Star Ball and commands ice-based abilities, capable of freezing opponents solid with his attacks.
Unlike his twin brother Nuova Shenron, who fights with honor and a warrior's code, Eis Shenron is cowardly and underhanded. He resorts to dirty tactics without hesitation, using hostages and sneak attacks to gain advantages over his opponents. This contrast between the twins highlights how the same source of negative energy can produce vastly different results.
During his battle with Goku, Eis Shenron freezes Goku's eyes, temporarily blinding him. He then takes advantage of Goku's impaired state to land attacks he otherwise could not. However, Goku adapts by sensing energy rather than relying on sight. Nuova Shenron, disgusted by his brother's dishonorable behavior, refuses to help Eis. Goku ultimately destroys Eis Shenron with a powerful attack, ending the ice dragon's treacherous run.
