Synopsis
In the distant future, war has destroyed the entire Earth, leaving only a barren desert where the water supply is controlled by a greedy king. Searching for a long-lost lake, Sheriff Rao seeks help from the Demon King… and gets the king's son, Beelzebub, and his assistant, Thief. Together, the unlikely trio sets off across the desert, facing dragons, bandits, and the deadliest enemy of all… the king's own army! It's a tank-action, road-trip adventure in this new story from Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball Z!
The manga “Sand Land” is a short series that Toriyama serialized in Shueisha's “Weekly Shonen Jump” magazine from May to August 2000. Shueisha published a compiled volume of the manga in November 2000.
