Meanwhile, on Earth, Mr. Popo finally gathers all of the Dragon Balls and Kami contacts King Kai, offering to restore Yamcha and Tien Shinhan. However, King Kai comes up with an alternate plan: use the Earth's Dragon Balls to restore everyone on Namek who was murdered by Frieza, which will revive Grand Elder Guru, who actually died of a broken heart due to the pain he felt from Frieza murdering his children, and with him, the Namekian Dragon Balls, which someone can then use to wish everyone on Namek to Earth except for Frieza, who will be left to die in the explosion. However, this will require Yamcha and Tien to stay an extra year with King Kai.

As Goku slowly begins to get the upper hand against Frieza, Frieza becomes enraged to the point that he begins flying towards Goku at maximum speed. Goku fires a Kamehameha wave at Frieza as Mr. Popo summons Shenron.
