While they were battling Emporor Pilaf sets a plan to defeats Goku. He saw how the masked man squezzed Goku's tail and Goku lose his power. He would do the same. Emporor Pilaf would also defeat Goku with his robots. Master Roshi put all the pieces together and figures out that the masked man was Goku's grandpa, Gohan. Then the masked man surrendered.
