Full Plot Summary

Yamcha has been killed by the Saibaman's surprise explosion. Back at the Kame House, everyone mourns his death, especially Bulma and Puar. Angered by losing him, Krillin fights the remaining Saibamen. He fires a powerful energy attack that completely destroys four of the remaining Saibamen, with Piccolo killing the last Saibamen. However, the real battle is about to begin, because the Saiyan Nappa steps up to fight, who proves to be much stronger than any of them. As Tien gets beaten up by Nappa and loses his right arm, Chiaotzu latches on to Nappa's back and explodes in a kamikaze attempt to destroy the Saiyan after a telepathic goodbye to Tien. Unfortunately, the maneuver has little effect on Nappa.
