After Elec shoots Granolah, Goku fights Gas and drags him through several locations and planets to buy time while Monaito heals Granolah. Goku abandons Gas on a distant planet and returns to Cereal where Monaito gives him a Scouter left by Bardock containing an audio recording of his actions 40 years prior. In a flashback of the Bardock vs. Gas fight, it is learned that the Cerealian Dragon Balls were used by Monaito to wish for "the prosperity of Bardock's sons"—explaining why Goku and Raditz survived the Saiyan extinction by Freeza. Hearing that Bardock only thought of victory, Goku and Vegeta understand what "Saiyan pride" is. Together, they fight Gas, who realizes they are getting stronger.
