Manga ChapterCh. 78

The Heeters spring their master plan. Learning that the fighting has stopped, Elec summons the Cerealian dragon and makes his wish off-screen. Gas arrives on the battlefield as the newly crowned strongest being in the universe, easily overpowering both Granolah and Goku. Vegeta retrieves a Senzu Bean and gives it to Granolah so the Cerealian can take revenge with his own hands.

The Heeters Intervene

Elec receives word that the Saiyans and Granolah stopped fighting thanks to an elderly Namekian's intervention. He decides to act. Gas requests permission to kill them all while exhausted, and his siblings agree. Elec heads to summon the dragon while they handle the battlefield. On the ground, Granolah seethes at the revelation that Elec murdered his mother. Monaito explains he hid the truth for protection. Vegeta asks whether Bardock won his fight against Gas; Monaito confirms he did, but the sky turns dark before he can elaborate. Elec stands before the Cerealian dragon Toronbo, and the wish is made beyond earshot.

The Strongest Arrives

Goku, Vegeta, and Granolah sense a staggering power approaching. Oil and Macki arrive, confirming their role in the original attack on Planet Cereal. Macki thanks Granolah for his service but calls him an obstacle, then presents Gas, reborn through the Dragon Balls as the most powerful warrior alive. Goku and Vegeta are stunned to learn Dragon Balls exist on this planet. Granolah admits he obtained his own power the same way. Gas fires a beam that carves the landscape, destroys Granolah's ship, and incapacitates the Cerealian. He binds Goku with energy constructs and recognizes him as Bardock's son.

A Senzu for Revenge

Granolah attacks Gas but is beaten down. Monaito frees Goku and heals him. Goku transforms into Perfected Super Saiyan Blue to buy time, but Gas dispatches him as well. Macki notices Vegeta has vanished. The prince retrieves a Senzu Bean from his discarded armor and wakes Granolah. He explains the bean will fully restore his power. Granolah is incredulous Vegeta chose not to use it himself. Vegeta replies that relying on a shortcut would be cowardly, and tells Granolah to eat the bean and take his revenge with his own hands.
