Goku makes the ultimate sacrifice. He teleports exploding Cell to King Kai’s planet, dying again. But Cell regenerates, now “Super Perfect Cell” — stronger than ever. He fires a solar-killing blast at Gohan. Vegeta, finally shedding his pride, distracts Cell. Gohan, with Goku’s voice guiding him from the afterlife, unleashes a that disintegrates Cell forever.

The battle escalates. Frieza, able to transform into four increasingly monstrous forms, toys with everyone.

Vegeta’s dying words reveal the legend: Frieza feared the Super Saiyan, the galaxy’s mightiest warrior.
The Saiyans arrive. Nappa easily defeats the Earth’s mightiest warriors, killing Chiaotzu, Tien, Yamcha, and Piccolo (who dies protecting Gohan). Goku arrives, fresh from King Kai’s training. He defeats Nappa with ease. Then comes Vegeta — arrogant, ruthless, and powerful. The battle is brutal. Goku uses Kaioken times four to overpower Vegeta’s , but Vegeta transforms into a Great Ape after Gohan’s tail grows back. Crushed, Goku passes the fight to his friends. With Krillin’s desperate strategy and Yajirobe’s surprise sword slash, they cut Vegeta’s tail. Gohan, in a rage, crushes Vegeta’s armor as a Great Ape himself. Vegeta barely escapes on his pod. Krillin spares him on Goku’s wish — a mercy that will later define the universe.
