He attacks Vegeta, until the Saiyan Prince cuts his tail off, but Vegeta is crushed by Gohan while reverting back to normal, and is finally defeated. Krillin tries to kill him with Yajirobe's sword, but Goku convinces him not to, believing that Vegeta will learn to change his evil ways just like Piccolo did, and Vegeta escapes in his space pod.
