"Are you... Son Gohan?"

A Namekian with a good memory recognized Son Gohan, who had suddenly appeared.

Son Gohan nodded.

"Frieza will be here soon. Hurry and take me to see the Grand Elder. Also, gather everyone together. I'll take you to Earth!"

"Earth!"

"That's right!"

"Then I'll take you to see the Grand Elder now. Nail, go gather everyone in the village!"

"Okay!"

Nail nodded.

With that, the Namekian immediately led Son Gohan to see the Grand Elder.

A short while later, Son Gohan was brought before the Grand Elder.

"Grand Elder, Son Gohan is here!"

The Grand Elder nodded.

"Gohan, did you come to help us defeat Frieza?"

"Yes, but before fighting Frieza, I need to take you somewhere safe!"

"Somewhere safe? Do you mean Earth?"

"That's right!"

"Good, I understand. I'll have them do as you say!"

Son Gohan nodded.

Meanwhile.

Frieza's spaceship had just landed on Namek.

Looking out the spaceship window at the clear blue sky, Frieza said, "So this is Namek?"

"Yes, Lord Frieza!"

Dodoria replied.

"In that case, the two of you will find the Namekian Dragon Balls for me!"

"Yes, Lord Frieza!"

Elsewhere.

The Grand Elder had gathered all the Namekians on the planet.

"Whoosh..."

With Son Gohan's Instant Transmission, he transported the Namekians to Earth in several groups.

Dodoria and Zarbon had already begun preparing to search for the Namekian Dragon Balls. When they saw a large number of powerful readings disappear from their Scouters, a hint of alarm immediately appeared on their faces.

"Zarbon, I'm seeing a large number of power readings disappear. Could someone have found the Namekians before us?"

"That's possible. But who could it be?"

"I don't know, but if someone really did find the Namekians before us, they must be stronger than we are!"

Zarbon nodded.

Although the two of them were powerful, they weren't confident they could "kill" so many Namekians in such a short time.

"But whoever it is, I don't think they'd dare cross Lord Frieza!"

In a forest on Earth.

A large group of Namekians had gathered together.

These were the Namekians Son Gohan had brought back from Namek.

Because Nail and the others had such powerful ki, they soon attracted Krillin and the others, who were on Earth.

"S-so many Piccolos!"

When Krillin saw more than a hundred Namekians, his legs immediately went weak, and he stumbled backward several steps.

"Uncle Krillin!"

Just then, Son Gohan walked out from among the Namekians.

"Gohan!"

Son Gohan smiled and nodded.

"Gohan, who are they?"

"They're Namekians, and they're Uncle Piccolo's people!"

Krillin: "P-Piccolo's people! I knew they looked so much like him!"

"Mm!"

Son Gohan nodded.

"Then, Gohan, why are they here?"

"Frieza invaded their planet, so I brought them to Earth!"

"You brought them here?"

Krillin was startled.

"Yeah!"

Just then, Son Goku and Piccolo flew down from the sky.

When the Namekians nearby saw Piccolo, a hint of surprise immediately appeared on their faces.

"Gohan, is he the Uncle Piccolo you mentioned?"

A Namekian named Nick asked.

"Mm!"

Son Gohan nodded.

"Gohan, who are they?"

"Uncle Piccolo, they're Namekians from Namek!"

"Namekians?"

"Then why are they here?"

Son Gohan then told Piccolo and the others that Frieza wanted to seize the Namekian Dragon Balls.

"Frieza? Then, Gohan, how did you learn about the Namekians?"

Son Gohan smiled.

"An old man in my dream told me everything!"

"Really?"

Piccolo was only half convinced.

"Then, Gohan, is this Frieza really that strong?"

Son Goku asked.

"He's very strong!"

"Is that so? If I get the chance, I'd really like to fight him and see for myself!"

At Son Gohan's words, he suddenly seemed to remember something.

"Dad, Uncle Piccolo, why don't you come with me to see the Grand Elder?"

"The Grand Elder?"

Son Gohan nodded and led the two of them to see the Grand Elder.

Soon, Son Gohan brought them before the Grand Elder.

"Grand Elder!"

The Grand Elder nodded.

"Gohan, who are they?"

"He's my dad, Son Goku, and he's Uncle Piccolo!"

"Grand Elder!"

Piccolo greeted the Grand Elder respectfully.

The Grand Elder nodded.

"Could you be a descendant of Katatz?"

"Katatz?"

"That's right. Long ago, when Namek underwent a catastrophe, Katatz left the planet alone. We never heard from him again. So he came to Earth!"

"I see!"

The Grand Elder nodded.

"Did you bring him here so I could tell him about his origins?"

"No!"

Son Gohan shook his head.

"Grand Elder, I'd like you to help them unlock their potential!"

Son Goku: "Unlock our potential!"

"Very well!"

The Grand Elder readily agreed.

"Then, Son Goku, please stand in front of me."

"Oh!"

At the Grand Elder's words, Son Goku immediately stood in front of him.

Seeing this, Piccolo went to Son Goku's left.

The Grand Elder placed his hand on Son Goku's forehead, and a stream of white energy instantly flowed into Son Goku's body.

"All right, Son Goku. Let Piccolo come over now!"

The Grand Elder slowly lifted his hand and spoke.

"Okay!"

Son Goku said, then immediately stepped back.

Piccolo immediately went over to the Grand Elder.

The Grand Elder raised his right hand and unlocked Piccolo's potential.

"All done!"

Piccolo looked at his hands and realized that he was much stronger than before.

"Thank you, Grand Elder!"

The Grand Elder nodded.

Seeing this, Son Gohan immediately took them back to where Krillin and the others were.

"Goku, did you see the Grand Elder?"

"We did. The Grand Elder even helped us unlock our potential!"

"Unlocked your potential?"

Son Goku nodded.

"Then, Goku, can you ask the Grand Elder to unlock my potential too?"

"Well... you'll have to ask Gohan!"

"Gohan!"

Krillin looked at Son Gohan.

At that moment, Nail suddenly stepped forward from among the crowd.

"The Grand Elder doesn't have much time left. I hope you won't disturb him any further!"
