Krillin obtains the bottles containing Kami and Mr. Popo to release them. Gohan is knocked out after being beat by Piccolo, who at this time is still pretending to be under the effects of the Black Water Mist. Piccolo heals his bite marks that he got on Master Roshi's island revealing his plan of pretending was the only way he could get close to Garlic Jr. to set Kami free and return to full power, as Kami and Piccolo are aligned. It is then revealed that Piccolo is immune to the mist thanks to his Namek heritage as when he fought Krillin he whispered his true plan to him and told him to play along.
