Synopsis

Nappa, whose attacks have proven ineffective against Goku, becomes enraged to the point that it diminishes his ability to fight. Vegeta reminds Nappa to stay calm, but Goku still easily repels Nappa's greatest attack, a mouth blast. Vegeta orders Nappa to switch out, but when Nappa goes after Gohan and Kuririn instead, Goku defeats him with the Kaiō-Ken, his new attack that momentarily boosts his power and speed. Vegeta is surprised but annihilates the crippled Nappa. Goku flies off with Vegeta to a new battleground.
