"What's going on? Why did Grandpa Yamamoto suddenly injure Vegeta?" Gohan turned his head in midair, his voice filled with confusion.
Piccolo seized the chance and said, "Forget about that, Gohan. Let's get out of here while we can!"
Frieza's transformation was still continuing. This was their only chance to escape.
"Hang in there, Uncle Piccolo!" Gohan shouted, supporting Piccolo in midair as they quickly flew away.
"What a sorry sight. I thought I'd be able to save you this time." Piccolo gave a bitter smile.
