[Source]. After killing both his rival and the alien invader known as Raditz in a single Special Beam Cannon, the world expected a second reign of terror, and for the soul of Earth's mightiest warrior to be eternally trapped in limbo due to his father's evil nature. Instead, Piccolo solemnly finished off Raditz with a single merciful blow, took the nearby Gohan, and left; an act of unusual goodness for Kami's evil half. As the two trained for the oncoming invasion of two saiyans, each more powerful than the last, Gohan's childish view of morality slowly revealed to Piccolo the childishness of his own, to be tied to the convictions of one's lineage rather than of one's choice. Despite his training, Piccolo was no match for Nappa, sacrificing himself to protect his first true friend, as well as to stall long enough for the revived Son Goku to arrive. During his stay in the afterlife, Piccolo would train under King Kai, becoming close friends with the other slain Z-Warriors, as well as becoming stronger.
