In this scenario, Drum decides not to mess around and stabs straight through Tenshithands just before Galu arrives. How would things have gone? Without Ten to use bukujutsu, it's most likely Goku would've been killed by Piccolo Daimao's Bakurikimaha. With that being the case, would he rule unopposed until Raditz arrives? We know Kami learnt the Mafuba sometime after Daimao's death in the original timeline, so he may decide to face Piccolo with that in mind.

Assuming neither of this happens, do you think the two would fuse when Raditz arrives due to seeing no other choice.

Also, given Yamcha's gains by the time of the 23rd TB, then with another year or two could this be the scenario where he truly becomes the hero the Dragon World deserves?

I could see Goku maybe killing Piccolo-Daimao straight-away, without letting him go full-power because of his anger. Or maybe not. He might still survive the attack though. Just barely. If not, then I see Raditz destroying earth once he comes.

1. Goku is killed; Kami is an asshole and prefers to keep chilling at his palace
Yamcha can beat Piccolo if he trains sufficiently, but he needs to wait and face him
after 23rd TB, because, at that point, he's not strong enough yet. Knowing Yamcha,
once he makes some huge gains, he gets overconfident, believes he's got this in
the bag and, since he's also unable to sense chi, he foolishly goes to fight and gets
killed.
When Raditz arrives, if the Kamiccolo formed is strong enough to beat him, what
happens next depends on many factors. Who is the main personality? Can Kami
affect Piccolo enough from the inside to make him stop comitting atrocities? Do
Vegeta and Nappa come without being motivated by dragonballs? The canon story
was a little contradicting about that, considering Raditz stated they would come
anyway, whereas Vegeta and Nappa said they wouldn't have been bothered had it
not been for dragonballs.
If the other two Saiyans don't come, the world is eventually fucked up by Androids.
Considering Dr Gero did not collect as much data from Goku as in canon, it's hard
to say what kind of Androids/Cell he created, but i guess they'll still be stronger
than Kamiccolo.

2. Goku is killed; Kami seals Piccolo with mafuba
Raditz destroys everything.

3. Goku gets mad and defeats Piccolo without letting him go full power
Tenshinhan is revived along with the others later and nothing changes for the
time being. If the fight Goku had with FP King Piccolo in canon gave him a
zenkai, does that mean that, without that zenkai, he ends up weaker than
in canon at 23rd TB? In that case, Piccolo Jr wins. When Raditz arrives, he
fuses with Kami and things go like in Case 1.
If 23rd TB Goku is still as strong as in canon, then, after Freeza Saga, maybe
a different combination of wishes is required for Tien to be revived, since he
already died once, but i don't think anything changes.

This is pretty much what I'm thinking. If he saw Piccolo kill Tenshinhan, I doubt he'd react any differently than he did when he found Krillin dead to Tambourine. I doubt he lets Piccolo get to power and will one shot him due to Pic being off guard.

Either way, Raditz will clean up when he gets to Earth.

Tbf that was after he transformed, his mind was altered.

He also never attempted to stop Vegeta powering up though, nor Freeza going to his 50% despite his promise to Vegeta and Freeza having come close to killing his friends already.

In fairness, the situations are't entirely similar since Goku had the upperhand when freeza began to power up to 100% (and it would explicitly take enough time where Goku could've easily finished him had he attacked mid-way into the powerup). Against Vegeta he was already outmatched until the KKx3 which he hadn't planned to use.

The situation with Daimao seems similar enough to Freeza, given Galu was also stomping the former until he showed his full power. Goku could've still performed a KKx2 sucker punch on Vegeta whilst he was powering up to potentially prevent his power up.

Jumping headfirst into a stronger enemy's range =/= attacking an equal enemy while he's charging a blast
