As Turles escaped the atmosphere, Raditz halted his pursuit, suppressing his anger and making his position known to others.

Halting the expansion of the Tree of Might was of utmost importance. The only way to achieve this was with the Dragon Balls!

"Bulma, give me the Dragon Ball Radar!"

"Huh?"

"I need to find the Dragon Balls as soon as possible, hurry!" Raditz urged.

Bulma grew anxious and pointed towards the crashed plane. "It might be broken..."

"No worries, I have it." Master Roshi had the Dragon Ball Radar, his sunglasses gleaming with wisdom. "I foresaw the need for the Dragon Balls in advance, so I took the radar as a precautionary measure. Good thing I did."

"I didn't expect Master Roshi to be so prepared!" Raditz exclaimed with joy.

"That... I'm not sure if I misheard, but the person who looked like Goku took something from me," Bulma's voice grew fainter, as if she had realized something irreparable.

"What?"

"It seems to be Gohan's... hat."

"Just a hat..." Raditz waved his hand dismissively, but then he stopped. "Does Gohan's hat have a Dragon Ball on it?"

The Master Roshi was also taken aback. "Yes, at that time, after we completed the wish, I retrieved the four star Dragon Ball and put them back! I intended to return Gohan's hat, but I always forgot, and today I happened to bring it out!"

In their recent conversation, Goku had vaguely mentioned the Dragon Balls. Although Turles had never seen one, the unique appearance of the Dragon Balls made him suspect. If that was the case, it would be a big problem!

Meanwhile, everyone gathered and saw the wreckage of the spaceship and a few survivors.

"What about Turles?" Vegeta was the first to inquire.

"He escaped."

"He got away?!"

"He also took a Dragon Ball," the Master Roshi added.

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces turned pale and green, struck by the realization that without the power of the Dragon Balls, they couldn't prevent the impending disaster. The Earth would be completely destroyed!

They had defeated Turles but lost the Earth? It would be a truly futile victory!

Vegeta and Nappa didn't care much, but for Goku, the Earth was their home.

"Let's go to the Kami, perhaps he has a solution," suggested Goku. After a while, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Look! It's Mr. Popo!"

Following his outstretched finger, they saw a dark-skinned man approaching on a flying carpet, holding a delicately decorated pot.

"Mr. Popo! Did Kami send you here?" Goku asked.

"Goku!" Mr. Popo stopped the magic carpet. "The gods have seen the situation in the heavens. This is the 'Ultra Divine Water' he asked me to give you. Once you pour it onto the roots of the Tree of Might, it should stop its spread."

"Ultra Divine Water? Isn't that for drinking?" Goku recalled using the power of the Ultra Divine Water when facing the Great Demon King Piccolo.

"The Ultra Divine Water itself is highly toxic but also has detoxification properties. It might prove useful against the Tree of Might, as it is the fruit of a legendary god. That's why Kami wanted you to give it a try."

Mr. Popo handed the pot to Goku.

Ultra Divine Water? Goku was skeptical, but he had no choice but to try it. Holding the pot, he flew towards the Tree of Might, sprinkling the Ultra Divine Water until every drop fell.

The Ultra Divine Water immediately took effect, halting the expansion of the Tree of Might. However, the impact on Earth had already taken its toll, and nearly a quarter of the planet had been devastated.

Finding the Dragon Balls became even more crucial.

To achieve this goal, they needed to enhance their power and modify the spacecraft to locate the Dragon Balls. Thus, everyone decided to take a short break.

During this time, Bulma worked on developing a Cosmic Dragon Ball Radar, while Raditz planned to ask Bulma's father, Dr. Brief, to construct a gravity training room.

...

Over the next two weeks, violent incidents erupted across the Earth, with turmoil and unrest spreading. Cities and villages fought over dwindling resources, and armed groups engaged in battles for survival.

The King Furry dispatched troops to rescue and suppress the chaos, attempting to stabilize the situation. Natural disasters and human conflicts eroded the peace that once prevailed.

Raditz floated high in the sky, observing the port and the sea that stretched before him. The sea remained a sanctuary of purity on Earth. The sun pierced through broken clouds, casting scattered reflections on the water, creating a picturesque scene. Raditz had grown up in a coastal city in his past life, where ships came and went from the port every day, their horns resonating like calls to adventure.

As a child, he often went to the sea alone after school, finding solace in its vastness. It was a sanctuary where he could find peace. After a busy day, watching the sun set over the sea, gazing into the distance, brought him a sense of happiness.

He realized it had been a long time since he last saw the sea, and even this vibrant blue color was a rarity. Considering that most Saiyans were accustomed to seeing shades of green, this change was refreshing.

"Raditz, how much longer will you be standing here? Vegeta said the gravity chamber has been built and asked you to start training," Nappa said, placing his hand on Raditz's shoulder.

"The Earth is a remarkable place, isn't it?"

"Uh?"

"Just look at this scenery. You won't find it on any other planet!"

Nappa found Raditz's words peculiar, but he couldn't argue. Raditz's power now surpassed his own. Even Vegeta had acknowledged it, so he chose to remain silent.

"Experience the beauty of life. We don't have much time left," Raditz remarked.

Indeed, in the past two months, Nappa also found Earth to be a comfortable place. His aggressive nature found an outlet in advanced video game consoles, engaging in intense battles. Although he had repeatedly lost to Raditz, his enthusiasm for gaming remained undiminished.

Besides combat, he found great enjoyment in fighting games.

Vegeta and Goku had competed against each other, with Goku emerging as the victor. Determined to surpass the two brothers, Vegeta and Nappa strategized day and night.

In the evenings, they gathered to eat together. Saiyans were known for their appetites, and Vegeta's loss in one battle didn't dampen his enthusiasm for food. Others also indulged in hearty meals, with each person clearing their plate in a competition of speed.

Gohan often trained with Piccolo and occasionally played with his pet dragon Icarus.

Coconut trees swayed gently on Turtle Island, creating a soothing atmosphere. The Master Roshi, sporting sunglasses, reclined on a lounger, surrounded by beauty magazines exuding an air of elegance.

"Let's go. The gravity training room is ready," Raditz said, finally tearing his gaze away from the sea.
