And Gohan also thanks Rudra for taking the heavy burden off Trunks' shoulders. Rudra simply smiles and replies, "You're welcome."
Then he begins to explain the real reason why he has come here. He tells everyone how they can use the Dragon Balls of Planet Namek to revive all those who had lost their lives.
At this moment, Krillin raises an important question. With a serious expression, he asks, "But Goku… he died because of a heart disease. Can even he be revived using the Namekian Dragon Balls?"
Rudra pauses for a moment, then answers honestly, "I don't know for sure. But King Kai might be able to help us. He can guide us to the location of the planet and maybe confirm the possibility."
Rudra then explains his Instantaneous Technique—the special ability he uses to teleport across vast distances in a blink. King Kai listens carefully, and then he himself steps forward, using his divine powers to aid Rudra in pinpointing the exact location of Namek.
Trunks clenches his fist with determination and promises everyone, "I swear… I will bring them all back. No matter what it takes, I will revive everyone we lost."
With King Kai's help, Rudra places his hand on Trunks' shoulder. In the very next instant, both of them vanish from King Kai's tiny planet, their figures dissolving into thin air.
A flash of light appears over the lush green fields of Planet Namek. Out of nowhere, Rudra and Trunks materialize in the middle of a quiet Namekian village.
The peaceful villagers, unprepared for such sudden visitors, instantly panic. Their calm expressions turn to alarm as murmurs spread across the settlement. Within moments, four warrior-class Namekians rush forward, standing protectively before their people, their eyes sharp and suspicious. An elder also steps out, walking slowly but firmly toward the two unexpected arrivals.
The Namekian Elder finally steps forward, his calm but cautious eyes resting on the two strangers. He speaks in a deep, steady voice, "May I know who you are… and what business you have on our planet?"
Rudra steps ahead, bowing slightly in respect. "Forgive us for startling you like this. My name is Rudra, and the one behind me is Trunks. We both come from Earth."
The Elder's expression softens at the mention of Earth. A gentle smile appears on his face. "Ah, so you come from the same world as the golden warrior… Son Goku. He once saved our people and fought bravely for our planet's survival. It brings me joy to meet others from his home. Tell me, what is it that brings you here?"
Rudra nods respectfully. "You may already know… that some of your people once lived on Earth as well."
At these words, the Elder's memory stirs. His eyes narrow slightly in thought before widening with recognition. "Yes… that strong Namekian… Piccolo. I remember now. Because of him, the Dragon Balls existed on Earth too. He must have created them…"
Rudra affirms his guess with a faint smile. "That's correct. But… many years have passed since then. The Earth you once knew—the peaceful land and the strong warriors who defended it… they are no more."
The Elder's smile fades, replaced by a deep look of sorrow. Before he can respond, the sound of wind cutting sharply through the sky is heard. A young Namekian descends gracefully from above, landing with poise before the group. It is none other than Dende.
Recognizing the newcomers, Dende walks closer and greets them warmly. "Welcome to Namek. It is good to meet warriors from Earth again. Tell me… how are Gohan and Krillin? Are they well?"
At this, Trunks steps forward, his fists tightening at his sides. With a heavy heart, he recounts everything that has happened—the devastation that befell Earth, the rise of the Androids, and how each of the Z Fighters perished one by one. He speaks of Gohan's final stand, of Krillin's sacrifice, and of the suffering their planet endured. His voice trembles, yet he does not hold back a single detail.
Dende listens in silence, his face growing pale with grief. By the time Trunks finishes, Dende's hands are trembling. His heart aches, but instead of despair, determination fills his eyes. Without wasting even a single moment, he declares, "If that is the truth… then we cannot delay. We must gather the Dragon Balls at once."
He immediately calls upon the villagers for assistance. The warriors who had arrived earlier lower their guard, and within minutes, several Namekians spread out across the land, retrieving the sacred orbs. Their glowing orange light shines brighter as they are brought together, forming a circle of hope in the center of the village.
As the seven Dragon Balls are assembled, the Elder steps closer to Rudra and Trunks. "Your arrival was not a coincidence. Perhaps fate itself has brought you here… for the sake of Earth and its fallen protectors."
Dende looks at Rudra and Trunks with conviction, his voice steady, "We will summon Porunga and restore your friends. Not only because Gohan and Krillin once fought by my side… but because Earth carries a bond with Namek that can never be broken."
The atmosphere grows solemn yet hopeful, the air vibrating faintly as the Dragon Balls begin to glow in unison. A powerful energy builds around them, lighting up the night sky of Namek, preparing for the summoning of the eternal dragon.
