Goku and Piccolo face a difficult situation as Raditz effortlessly blocks their attacks. Piccolo has developed a new technique called the Special Beam Cannon that might defeat the Saiyan. However, charging this attack requires time. Goku must survive alone against Raditz for five minutes to allow Piccolo to complete the energy gathering process. This strategy relies entirely on Goku's ability to endure the enemy's assault without support until the final strike can be launched.
