Summary
Goku is really worn down, and Yajirobe is glad it is over, and runs over to Goku. "Son!!! You did it, didn't ya, you bastard!!!" Goku wonders what he is doing here, and Yajirobe compliments him on beating that other bastard. He pats Goku on the back, which Goku finds extremely painful. Yajirobe asks what is wrong, and Goku explains that he used a technique that was too much for his body. Goku then tells Yajirobe he should run away, and Yajirobe wonders if he means... Goku says Vegeta is still alive, and also says, "I think I've already reached my limits." Yajirobe then takes this opportunity to run away.
The Kamehameha is still shooting Vegeta up through the sky, but Vegeta finally breaks away from it. "Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!!!!" Vegeta goes insane at the fact that Kakarrot overpowered him. He is supposed to be the number one Saiyan. Vegeta then calms down and decides that despite how ugly he will become, he will transform into a Great Ape, which brings out the true strength in a Saiyan. Vegeta then looks around for the moon, but cannot find it and is confused, thinking it should be here.
Kaiō laughs about how he cannot find the moon, as that guy named Piccolo destroyed it. Kaiō also thinks that even though Goku has no strength left, he can still use the Genki-Dama. And Goku wonders why Vegeta has not come back yet. Meanwhile, Vegeta thinks Kakarrot must have destroyed the moon in advance, but does not seem to be too concerned... Goku then feels Vegeta returning to the battlefield. Vegeta tells him that he notices the moon is gone, and Goku does not see what that has to do with anything.
So, Vegeta explains that they transform upon seeing the full moon. "As you know, the light of the moon is just a reflection of solar light. But, when it is reflected off the moon, that sunlight produces Brutz Waves. And if these Brutz Waves come from a full moon, they are over 17 million Zeno. If our eyes take in Brutz Waves over 17 million Zeno, our tail responds to it and we begin to transform. There are many moons throughout the universe, but no matter their size, none can produce a Brutz Wave over 17 million Zeno without being full. However... a Saiyan in need can create a small artificial moon full of Brutz Waves over 17 million Zeno. I will blend this Power Ball in with the oxygen of this planet to make it grow in no time!!!"
"Sorry for the delay, Kakarrot!!! At last, your time to die has arrived...!!! After all, a low-class warrior should not challenge a super elite warrior to a fight!!! Fuhahahaha..." Goku does not quite understand what is going on as Vegeta tosses the Power Ball way up into the air and yells at it to blend in. It begins to expand, and even Kaiō freaks out. Vegeta stares up at it, and then begins to transform...
