Hotter than Lava

Still training with Mr. Popo, Goku cannot yet harness his "ki". Back on the ground, the villagers flee the volcano. Tien, Krillin, Yamcha and Chiaotzu each try individually to stop the flow of lava towards the defenseless village. Goku is still having a very hard time doing anything with spiritual energy. Just as it looks like the threat has passed, the volcano erupts again with even more power. Krillin falls down a crack in the earth and Chiaotzu saves him using the flying technique. Tien suggests that Krillin learn the flying technique. The elder of the village refuses to leave and Mint and her brother can't make him move. Tien manages to divert the lava flow, but it doesn't leave the village safe. Krillin runs off to try to stop the lava himself. He is still drunk, so he thinks he can do this. Krillin runs to save Mint from the lava flow, but still, she will not leave without the elder. Krillin then tries to block the village with a big rock. Yamcha blasts a hole for water to flow though and continues comparing himself to Goku. Goku, meanwhile, is still failing at spiritual energy. Yamcha manages to flood the entire forest, but somehow, not the village. Everything is fine until the volcano erupts again. Together, Yamcha and Tien blast a rock wall that diverts the lava and protects the village. Training continues for everyone as the next Martial Arts Tournament is only three years away.
