Tsuru-Sen'nin the Crane Hermit, brother to Tao Pai Pai, and master to Tenshinhan and Chaozu. In the American dub, he is given the additional name of Master Shen. In an early 1980's dub, he is known as Lord Wu Zu.
He was once friends with Muten-Rôshi, however when they were defeated by the forces of the Demon King Piccolo and their mentor killed sealing him away, bitterness began to grow in his heart and he turned away from his old teachings and began a school where his hatred of the world began to spread to his pupils.
In the 22nd Tenka'ichi Budôkai, he entered his two star pupils, Tenshinhan and Chaozu to counter Roshi's pupils, Goku, Kuririn and Yamcha.
After Tenshinhan and Chaouzu left him, he rebuilt his near-dead brother (who was injured by Goku in combat), and had him enter into the 23rd Tenka'ichi Budôkai to get revenge on both Tenshinhan and Goku. Tenshinhan, however, easily defeats Tao and threatens Tsuru if he ever bothers him again.
