20. Time’s up!When the three hour truce ends, Goku has not arrived, so Nappa resumes his devastating attack. Suddenly everyone senses that Goku will arrive soon.

A Saiyan DuelGoku must now face Vegeta, the prince of the planet Vegeta, the strongest Saiyan warrior, and a villain so ruthless he destroyed his own partner, Nappa, for being injured. When Goku's double Kaio-Ken attack fails, Goku breaks his promise to King Kai and uses the triple Kaio-Ken. Vegeta becomes so angry he decides to blow up the Earth.


24. Vegeta... Saiyan StyleVegeta realizes that Kakarot is stronger than he expected, so he uses the ultimate strategy, transforming to a giant ape. Goku is in great danger!
