As Vegeta's space pod streaks away, Kuririn
carries the unconscious Gohan over to Goku. Bulma's airship arrives,
and upon landing, Chichi bursts out and snatches up her son. The Turtle
Hermit and Bulma attend to Goku, as Karin-sama tells him how proud he
is of their efforts. Kuririn gives his condolences to Bulma over Yamucha's
death. Now that Piccolo and Kami-sama are gone, the Dragonballs won't
work any longer. Bulma becomes distraught and breaks down crying. She
verbally attacks Yajirobe, wishing he were dead instead of Piccolo.
Karin breaks up the argument, and reminds them that they need to get
the wounded heroes some medical attention.

As night falls, the Turtle Hermit and Yajirobe carry Goku up into the
airship. Vegeta's artificial moon burns itself out, and they take off.
Kuririn guides them back to where the bodies of their fallen comrades
lay. He tells Bulma not to cry, that there may be a very slim chance
of resurrecting their friends. Before he can elaborate, they arrive
at the first battleground. The bodies of Yamucha, Tenshinhan and Piccolo
are loaded into refrigerated coffins there isn't enough of Chaozu's
body left to preserve.

Everyone grieves over the loss of their friends.
Bulma's thoughts are on the happy times she spent with Yamucha. Kuririn
reflects on how the other three lost their lives. Gohan eventually awakens
in his crying mother's arms, and everyone else congratulates him on
his efforts. Now that Gohan is taken care of, Yajirobe suggests Chichi
might take some concern for Goku. She refuses, blaming her husband for
everything bad that has happened to Gohan.
Bulma prods Kuririn to explain
what he was saying earlier. He tells how the Saiyans first learned of
the Dragonballs on Earth through Raditz's Scouter, and after wiping
out the planet, they would seek to have their own wishes granted with
them. When they arrived on Earth and saw Piccolo, they recognized him
as being from the planet Namek. Kuririn relates how during the battle,
Vegeta said that if they went to the planet Namek, there would be more
powerful Dragonballs there. Gohan remembers them having said that Namekians
have the power to fabricate some kind of mysterious balls. If someone
can somehow get to Planet Namek, they can use those Dragonballs to wish
everyone back to life. Everyone jumps at this news, except for Bulma.
She points out that they don't even know where this planet is supposed
to be.
