[Source]. The good to King Piccolo's evil, Kami is the stronger half of the split nameless namekian. As splits of one another, if one should die, so would the other, along with the Earth's Dragon Balls, which Kami created. Even after his brother regained his youth, Kami still outclassed him, only being defeated by his stronger reincarnation, Piccolo Jr., but that's still three years out. Now, with the help of his assistant Mr. Popo they train Goku to become the challenge against Piccolo Junior in the next tournament.
