The completion Cp​ of an algebraic closure of Qp​ is an algebraically closed field. Approximate a polynomial over Cp​ by one over Q​p​, use continuity of roots over a non-Archimedean field to obtain a nearby algebraic root, and then use Krasner's lemma to show that the original root already belongs to Cp​.
