While trying to make a plan, they spot a flying aircraft in the air. They all race back to thier flier and put it back in its capsule and hide. However, it was really Goku, concerned because the Dragon Radar was broken. They all yelled for him to come down, which took him a while to find. They all assumed that he gave up attacking the Red Ribbon. They all told him he was actually smart to run away from this fight, but Goku was confused. He told him he did it; by beating them up and gathering six new Dragon Balls. They were all very skeptical on it, so they sent Puar to go and see if it was true. She came back, telling them that it is true, the base is totally deserted. He told them all he got really strong, and asked Kamesennin if he climbed up Korin Tower. Kamesennin confessed it was true, while Goku explained that he did climb it and drank the holy water. Kamesennin figured out now that that was how he became so strong, but it took him three years, while this boy did it much faster. Goku asked Bulma to see if she could repair the Dragon Radar, while she asked if he found his grandpa's ball yet. He told her he found it, he just wants to revive Upa's father, since he was killed by the Red Ribbon. Whie flying back, Kamesennin, Yamcha, and Krillin all discussed on how strong Goku has become. They decided they want to go with him to become stronger, except for Kamesennin. They find out nothing is wrong, something must have swallowed it though.
