And goku admitted that he did have a scar but he was too little to remember where he got it.

Krillin and Roshi stopped him from going and they tried to think of what to do. Than Goku remembered when he was a kid that he got weak when someone pulled his tail and decided to attack Raditz and go for his tail. Bulma suggested that they use the dragonballs to summon the shenron and ask him to save the world, but she then realized that they couldn't find them all in one day.
