This film continues the story of an original stage show parodying 'Journey to the West' by theatre troupe Yoshimoto Shinkigeki.
Sanzohoshi (Sutchi), along with companions Son Goku (Yoshida Hiroshi), Sa Gojo (Matsura Shinya), and Chohakkai (Sakai Ai), set out on a journey toward India to seek sacred books said to be capable of making everyone in the world happy. However, the demon Big Cobra (Ikeno Medaka), appears before the party and attempts to gain 3 thousand years of life by siphoning the blood of Sanzohoshi.
