"A Battle with Their Lives on the Line! Gokū and Piccolo's Fierce Suicidal Attack" (命をかけた闘い!悟空とピッコロ捨て身の猛攻, Inochi wo Kaketa Tatakai! Gokū to Pikkoro Sutemi no Mōkō; FUNimation "A Life or Death Battle! Goku and Piccolo's Desperate Attack!") is the third episode of the Dragon Ball Kai anime.
Summary[]
Gokū and Piccolo are no match for Raditz in direct combat, so they decide to have Gokū distract Raditz while Piccolo gathers energy for an attack strong enough to defeat Raditz. This plan fails, as does Gokū's attempt to stop Raditz by grabbing his tail ends when Gokū gets tricked by his brother. Raditz tortures Gokū, causing Gohan to unleash his latent abilities in a fit of rage, and he strikes Raditz in the chest. Gokū uses this opportunity to grab Raditz from behind, allowing Piccolo to use his Makankōsappō technique on Raditz - killing them both. Before he succumbs to his wound, Raditz tells his enemies that the other Saiyans will arrive on Earth within a year. Bulma, Kulilin, and Muten Rōshi arrive to witness Gokū's death.
