Blood Rubies, also known as Rich Stones (リッチストン Ricchi Suton) in the Japanese version, are a type of valuable ruby that are located in the bottom of the Land of Gurumes.
Overview[]
These rubies are cursed and deteriorate everything around them. The Blood Rubies can cause mutation in Human-type Earthlings which causes their body to mutant into a Monster-type Earthling. However, the mutation can be reversed if they Blood Rubies are removed. They are also bulletproof as Yamcha used them to survive being shot multiple times in the gut when storming Gurumes' castle.
Usage[]
King Gurumes paid Bongo and Pasta in these in exchange for gathering the Dragon Balls for him. When Penny made a wish to Shenron to restore the land, all of the blood rubies were removed from the ground which seemed to have been behind all of the corruption.
Video Game Appearances[]
Blood Rubies appears as a Treasure item in Dokkan Battle which can be traded at Baba's Shop for certain items including Gurumes Warrioress Pasta character cards. It can be acquired in the Story Event "Curse of the Blood Rubies" in Stage 5: "To the Land of Gurumes!".
Trivia[]
- Frieza describes Planet Vegeta as looking like a blood ruby, shortly before destroying it. This could possibly mean that this resource can be found on other planets as well.
