action
A huge asteroid threatens the earth. Using the Kamehame-Ha fighting technique , Son-Goku and Kuririn try together to steer it into another orbit and not to destroy it, as there are signs of life on the asteroid. Your maneuver fails and instead of the asteroid, a huge spaceship arrives on earth. The aliens tell the people on earth that the planet and the Milky Way are now under the rule of Lord Slug, the king of the universe. He wants to take possession of the earth and destroy people. Since the climate is too warm for the demons on earth, Lord Slug's followers change the inclination of the earth's axis and use clouds to completely darken the planet.
When the alien soldiers demonstrate their power, Gohan intervenes and loses his hat with a Dragon Ball in the fight . Lord Slug recognizes the Dragon Ball and takes the cap with the crystal ball. Finally, he coaxes from Bulma the secrets of the seven earthly Dragon Balls and the important information that they can be found with the Dragon Ball Radar . He removes Bulma's radar and sends his followers out to collect the Dragon Balls. After a successful search, Lord Slug wishes eternal youth from the holy dragon Shenlong.
Meanwhile, Son-Goku and Kuririn wake up to the effects of a magic bean they received from Yaijirobi and discover that the earth is darkened and almost completely frozen. Gohan, meanwhile, returns to the spaceship with Oolong and tries to fight the alien demons. However, he cannot do anything against the majority of the aliens and receives support from Piccolo. As the battle progresses, both Gohan and Piccolo are defeated by Lord Slug's soldiers. Goku and Kuririn arrive and also fight the aliens. Son-Goku defeats Lord Slug's strongest followers and eventually faces Lord Slug himself.
As the fight progresses, Lord Slug turns out to be a Super Namek and personified, one hundred percent evil. Despite his strength and fighting techniques, Son-Goku fails to defeat Lord Slug, who now turns into an oversized opponent with multiplied power. Before he can kill Goku, Piccolo intervenes in the fight. As a Namekian, he knows all the strengths and weaknesses of his people. Piccolo tears off both ears and tells Gohan to whistle his song . The tone is unbearable for the sensitive hearing of a Namek and Lord Slug is almost incapable of fighting because of the whistled melody. Piccolo transfers his remaining strength to Son-Goku, who wounds Lord Slug with his technique Kaioken and finally destroys the aliens and spaceship with a Genkidama .
