Piccolo held onto the cross-shaped coffin and flew toward the Heavenly Temple at full speed. He had to race against ti—before Abel could escape from the coffin, he needed to reach the temple!
"Eh? Why is Piccolo running off with a coffin?"
Krillin shouted in confusion, watching Piccolo disappear into the distance.
"That direction… it's the temple,"
Goku recognized where Piccolo was heading, but he too was puzzled by his actions.
But in the next second, he suddenly rembered sothing and imdiately understood Piccolo's plan.
"I see! I get it now! I know what Piccolo is trying to do!"
Goku exclaid, his face lighting up in realization as he clenched his fist in admiration of Piccolo's cleverness.
"What is it, Goku? What's Piccolo planning?"
Yamcha asked, curious about Goku's reaction.
"You'll find out when we get to the temple,"
Goku replied, then imdiately took off despite his injured state.
"Be careful!"
Krillin quickly moved to support him, helping him fly.
The group wasted no ti and took off after Piccolo!
At the temple, Kami gazed at the approaching Piccolo in confusion. But in the next mont, he realized what Piccolo intended.
"I see! That's indeed a great thod when you don't know how to kill him!"
With his wisdom, Kami instantly understood Piccolo's plan. He quickly turned and ran to make the necessary preparations.
Piccolo, however, was filled with urgency. He was still a distance away from the temple, and if he didn't make it in ti, Abel would escape from the coffin.
If that happened, he would have to waste more ti fighting Abel again.
Earlier, Piccolo had managed to kill Abel several tis, but that was mostly due to luck and seizing the right opportunities.
Each ti Abel resurrected, he learned from his mistakes. This ti, he would be fully prepared. If he revived now, it would be nearly impossible for Piccolo to defeat him again!
He had to make it to the temple before that happened!
"Damn it! He's already reforming!"
In the next instant, Piccolo sensed a powerful energy surge within the cross-shaped coffin—Abel was reviving!
Creak… creak… creak…!
The coffin trembled violently, and heavy banging sounds echoed from within.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Open up! Let out!"
Abel's furious roar ca from inside.
Every ti he had revived before, the coffin door had opened imdiately. But now, with Piccolo holding onto it tightly, it was much harder to break free.
That only fueled Abel's anger.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Each ti Abel slamd against the coffin door from the inside, it shook violently, sending shockwaves through Piccolo's body.
Even through the coffin's walls, the sheer force was making Piccolo uncomfortable.
"Stay put!"
Annoyed, Piccolo stretched his arms, wrapping them tightly around the coffin, binding it as securely as possible to buy more ti.
Sure enough, the added restraint kept the coffin sealed tight, preventing Abel from breaking free despite his furious pounding.
With his strongest aura surging, Piccolo accelerated, transforming into a streak of light across the sky.
His speed now surpassed any known jet aircraft.
There was no way an ordinary human could keep up with him!
After two minutes, Piccolo finally saw the temple on the horizon. He pushed himself even harder.
"Hurry up, Piccolo!"
Kami shouted anxiously as Piccolo approached.
"I've prepared everything for you, get inside quickly!"
"Heh, this is about the only useful thing you've done,"
Piccolo sneered at Kami's words but wasted no ti. He rushed into the temple and straight to a certain room with an open doorway.
From the outside, the room appeared ordinary, but within was an endless white expanse, stretching beyond sight.
Inside, there were various furnishings—this was the temple's most well-known chamber, the Hyperbolic Ti Chamber!
"HAAAAAA!!!"
Piccolo threw the coffin deep into the chamber with all his strength.
With Piccolo no longer restraining it, Abel finally burst out of the coffin.
Grabbing the coffin, he twisted in midair, forcefully canceling out the montum from Piccolo's throw, landing steadily on his feet.
"Damn it! Why won't you fight fair and square?!"
Abel glared at Piccolo in fury.
"Hah, sorry, but I have no interest in wasting my ti fighting soone who refuses to stay dead."
Piccolo smirked coldly.
Then, he tossed a glowing energy ball inside before swiftly shutting the door and stepping back.
"You bastard!"
Abel was furious. He longed for a heated, honorable battle.
But now, he had no idea where Piccolo had thrown him, which frustrated him even more.
Summoning his massive black sword, he prepared to chase Piccolo down.
BOOM!!!
At that mont, the energy ball exploded, completely obliterating the chamber's entrance.
"Tch, like that's going to help,"
Abel scoffed, unconcerned.
But as the smoke cleared, he noticed sothing.
The door was gone.
Now, all around him was endless white nothingness.
"AAAAHHH!!! DAMN IT! WHERE DID YOU GO?!"
Abel roared in frustration.
To vent his rage, he wildly swung his sword, unleashing countless energy slashes, tearing apart the space around him.
But no matter how much destruction he caused, he couldn't return to the outside world.
"Phew, just in ti,"
Piccolo let out a breath of relief, staring at the destroyed entrance.
He then turned to Kami, who was sweating nervously as he watched him.
"Piccolo, you're sothing else…"
Just then, Goku's voice ca from behind as the others finally arrived.
"You actually thought of trapping Abel in the Hyperbolic Ti Chamber. This way, he'll be sealed in there forever."
Goku praised Piccolo's ingenuity.
"Hmph, it's not that big of a deal,"
Piccolo sneered dismissively.
"But Kami, now that the Hyperbolic Ti Chamber is gone, we've lost a great training ground,"
Goku said, a little disappointed.
"It's fine. I can repair the entrance,"
Kami replied, relaxing slightly upon seeing Goku.
"But considering the monster that's locked inside, perhaps it's better not to fix it."
Kami hesitated.
"No, it's fine. Fix it. Abel isn't a bad guy. I'd like to et him again soday."
