[Source]. Resurrected via the Dragon Balls, Goku sped to the highest power levels he had ever felt. By the time he arrived, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, and Piccolo had already died, leaving Krillin and Gohan the only remaining Z-Fighters beside himself. Paralyzing Nappa in a single blow, Goku uas shocked to see how real saiyans treat their injured comrades as Vegeta threw his injured friend into the air and vaporized him. While able to fight on equal terms against the saiyan prince using Kaioken, and even overpowering him with a Kaioken x4 Kamehameha during a beam struggle, he stood no chance against a Great Ape Vegeta. However with help from Yajirobe, Gohan, and Krillin, they were finally able to take him down. When Krillin went to kill the prince using Yajirobe's sword, Goku stopped him, allowing him to escape to learn humility and become a rival. With Kami dead from his life bond with Piccolo, and Korin fresh out of senzu beans, Goku was hospitalized as Krillin, Gohan, and Bulma left for Planet Namek aboard Kami's ship in hopes of using their Dragon Balls to resurrect their own. After healing from his injuries using a newly grown senzu, receiving a huge zenkai in the process, Goku leapt to his feet, hopped aboard a Capsule Corp. ship, and sped to Namek.
