Frieza: “I almost feel some guilt having to do this, I'm aware you were one of our more loyal ones, Bardock.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1fJRz5IS1
Bardock: “Working under you gave me the opportunity to be the warrior I craved to be, I can admit that, but I think I speak for every saiyan when I say we're tired of being under your watch. We were born to be free and fight for our pleasure! Not for your convenience! This ends now! Frieza!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyvmlQz1V7
Zarbon: “My lord, shall I dispose of this trash?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0IsEuzxNH
Frieza: “No, no. He went through all the trouble of fighting off my soldiers and confronting me directly. I cannot explain why but I feel like I owe him this last duel. Perhaps then this monkey will realize his pathetic place in this universe when he draws his last breaths.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhZAur892F
Frieza departed from his space pod, heading towards Bardock directly. They came face to face, only a few feet apart.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJO0zONsQ2
Bardock: “Haaaa!!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVR95QJp3N
The saiyan warrior launched a fist full of fury and pride. The mighty emperor redirected his punch with a palm strike to his arm. Bardock turned right back around and rushed Frieza with a combination of fierce and rapid punches and kicks. Frieza had no trouble evading and blocking each strike. A smirk was firmly printed on his face, showing the saiyan who was truly in control. Bardock jumped back and quickly shot a ki blast at the tyrant. Frieza stopped the blast with his bare hand. The explosion was a mere calculated distraction from the proud warrior. The smoke hid Bardock's location, giving him the chance to deliver a full power kick to Frieza's liver, followed by a punch, charged with ki, to his face. The blows sent Frieza back a few feet. His smirk was wiped from his face, shifting into an irritated frown.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjBGDuqBA7
Frieza: “All your efforts couldn't even leave a mere scratch, but how dare you lay your filthy hands on me!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1lvNMHiSg
The emperor made his move, striking Bardock's rib with his pinky finger at a blinding speed. The saiyan spit blood and lost his balance. Frieza swung his tail, slamming it into his face, knocking more blood out. He struck him a few more times before piercing his leg with a small beam he shot from his finger. Blood gushed out from the wounded warrior's leg. He yelled in agony and held his injured area. The sadistic emperor went for another shot at the saiyan's shoulder this time.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01noFSoFvU
Frieza: “It's a shame knowing you're the last one standing from your side of this war. The prince is under my control and the remaining saiyans are nothing to worry about. The saiyan race has fallen!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoVWCi7RPh
A small pod zoomed past them from a considerable distance. Bardock watched it leave and smirked.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl66VbvXAMN
Bardock: “I guess I was right to think ahead hehe. You're wrong! The saiyan race will never truly fall! You may have conquered all of our remaining warriors, but there's one more! Kakarot! Remember that name! Frieza!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUC1uB2k69
Frieza: “Well if that's your dying wish, then I shall consider it.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM5zD58K19
Bardock accepted his fate, but he refused to die in such an insulting manner and let out one final burst of energy from his palm. Frieza raised his finger, generating a massive ball of energy that resembled a sun.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXgUKeWmPv
Frieza: “My original intentions were to wipe out all of you monkeys with this war so I could salvage this planet for my own, but perhaps it's best that I make sure no trace of your once thriving society remains.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYYl7gkqxj
He lowered his finger, tossing the sphere at Bardock's direction. The attack completely disintegrated Bardock's final stand. With no power left to fight back, the last soldier of the saiyan resistance succumbed to his inevitable fate.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTI1ztzcl1
Frieza: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUhUKTa8uk
Bardock: “Go Kakarot…. Be the warrior I never could and show the world who you are!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FAizMS9kV
Bardock, along with his planet, perished becoming one with the empty, infinite space.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16LrkGj3FK
“Your alliance has fallen, Commander. Teaming up with the government couldn't save you, you're out of options.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTekFZjfXDI
Commander Red: “You're..You're a monster!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXObfppi8bM
“The world brought this upon itself when it decided to turn on me and reject me. This war was all because of you!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIKXcreEc4
Commander Red: “How dare you pretend you have a moral high ground! You and I both know you loved every moment out there! You live for this…Kakarot!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY22piQKNu
Kakarot crushed the severed head of an android that he held, with his bare hands.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TKYLXwFOU
Kakarot: “This world will never throw me aside again! For it now belongs to me! Kakarot!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkllfpru3b
The saiyan chopped the Commander in half with his bare hand. He crashed through the roof of the building they stood in and flew off.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTApPZ5EW9U
“Damn it! The signal hasn't returned! Where are you? Kakarot!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKkHjRyyll
Kakarot gently landed from the air.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrag4l9alv
Kakarot: “Bulma, it's over.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzC9hR2TK5
Bulma rushed towards him and greeted him with a tight hug.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmElHCTNC7
Bulma: “I thought something had happened to you! Your signal cut off!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhX3SBrSRr
Kakarot returned the affection before acknowledging her concern.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vE2Ws7SQq
Kakarot: “My ear piece was damaged during battle. The martial artists from before stepped in but I finally settled the score with them. No one will ever hurt us again.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTlv4uEQsZ
Bulma looked down and sighed. Her grip on Kakarot loosened. Kakarot frowned, noticing her discomfort.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4PGmACTto
Kakarot: “What's wrong?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cKBXSBq7f
Bulma: “I'm grateful for our freedom, but don't you wish this all could have been different?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsi97DMUt4
Kakarot: “I don't understand, what are you referring to?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5yzj5HrMG
Bulma: “We destroyed many lives for the better of our own. I'm not sure I'm allowed to celebrate this victory…”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTOzkIxSzU
Kakarot gently pulled her towards him, holding her by her hand.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthrdhyvDBy
Kakarot: “What matters today is that we get to live in peace. We can have a future together at last.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ69MKrB1BK
Bulma: “Yeah.. I guess you're right. The world is our's now, where do we even begin?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBgi95u7os
Kakarot: “I have no interest in leading these people, they can do whatever they want as far as I care, just as long as we're left unbothered. We should start by thinking about our future.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrLTqWmSkf
For months, the war between Kakarot and the earth's alliance had dragged on, many fell victim to Kakarot's might before the combined forces of the government and even the red ribbon army had fallen, finally ending the conflict. The best martial artists on the planet had their own turmoil with the saiyan but they unfortunately faced the same fate as the rest of his opposition. Despite the terrors that took place, a period of tranquility was achieved at last. A peace that would last for a few years to come.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKU1NDviO7
Kakarot: “Here it is, just as you asked, the largest boar I could find.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5w0IjaD3U
Kakarot put down the carcass of the freshly hunted boar.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwlNzL8tNl
Bulma: “Hey! You're getting blood on the floor! Leave it somewhere else!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkX0vb6UipD
Kakarot: “Jeez, fine I'll leave it outside in the meantime.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFjoAovbmu
Bulma shifted her focus back to her personal project she had been working on.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVB5lkhgyvR
Kakarot: “You've been cooped up here for a while, what exactly are you making?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBIKDwTeIV
Bulma: “It's a stretch, but have you ever wondered what lies beyond our world? Not just the galaxy but our universe as well.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oEj5kIBdj
Kakarot: “I haven't even begun to comprehend what lies beyond our planet, what goes on outside our universe was never really of my concern.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aEK5F9zYC
Bulma: “Well, I've studied quantum mechanics as much as I've studied engineering and there's theories suggesting the possibility of a multiverse. An infinite set of parallel worlds like our own but with minor or sometimes major differences.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9Y3tJeLR1
Kakarot: “So you're building a sort of vehicle I assume? What's that going to do?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdilPuQYcc1
Bulma: “You could tell it's a vehicle from this small progress alone?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxZxuJawnC
Kakarot: “That's clearly an engine, not one from any current technology we have though. Okay..I confess, I occasionally tinker with your stuff.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjeYMgw2l8
Bulma: “That explains a lot. This isn't just any vehicle though, once I get it figured out, this baby will be able to take us across dimensions! Look, I know we will never be able to undo the damage we caused, I've accepted it was for the greater good, but with this, we could go to other worlds where we exist and prevent this disaster! We can work together and create harmony so they don't have to live with our guilt!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKElWdMoXi
Kakarot: “You're still bent on this..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8OF2hiQ9c
Bulma: “I just can't fathom why it doesn't bother you as much! Don't you feel any remorse for what we did?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0oja6ANee
Kakarot: “We did what we had to, I took no joy in it, but it's what had to be done.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fttv1x9oL
Bulma sighed and dropped her head.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPb7qx2ZFiW
Bulma: “I should get to cooking that boar, I could use the break.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHZCXZ1dqm
Kakarot: “Hm… Where's Beet?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzusw0TH3We
Bulma: “You know how that boy is, he said he was going to pick some things up from the city, but I'm almost certain he's out in the woods again.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKaeZ86Yfa
Kakarot: “Looking for a good hunt I bet, I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYkaikyOUL
Beet: “Haaa!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a0o0wz9AX
Beet kicked at the beast that stood before him, knocking one of its teeth out. The dinosaur remained determined and swung its massive tail at the child who just barely reacted in time to evade it. The dinosaur charged at him, chomping it's jaws at Beet. The boy struggled to escape every bite.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRu6Th2Kmo
Beet: “Darn! I should've picked a smaller one to challenge!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqef1ZOsEM
Beet was whacked by the creature's tail, knocking him over. The dinosaur opened its jaw revealing its terrifying teeth. Beet closed his eyes shut and covered his face, preparing for the worst. The dinosaur bit down, but to his surprise, there was nothing there.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa27ekmDXp2
Kakarot: “You've still got a lot to learn boy.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndolXsIbYI
Beet: “You made it just in time sir!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYLt54dr2y
Kakarot put his son down and faced the dinosaur.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhHXQmymEi
Kakarot: “You're focused on the wrong objective. You can strike its head as many times as you want and it still has the chance to get up again. But-”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqX5JAriPx
Kakarot snatched the dinosaur's tail and tore it off in the blink of an eye. A big smile took over his face, overcoming his usual serious demeanor. His smile quickly faded as he saw the blood that leaked from the tail.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjI3eXC0bdC
Kakarot: “ …..If you take away its tail, it won't have anything left to defend itself with.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFI2Gt2DP2
A memory of the bloodshed from the war that had taken place crossed through his mind. He took a deep breath for a moment. The dinosaur fled from the scene in fear. Beet darted after it. Kakarot snapped out of his trance.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8nPb4B5b8
Kakarot: “Enough”!
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpHv3po4Lf
Beet: “Huh?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBpNUR3sOH
Kakarot: “I already got us a boar for dinner, there's no need to kill an opponent that can't fight anymore. It's broken beyond repair, don't carry the burden of being the one who took its life.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5QemSauYK
Beet: “But sir, you've let me hunt animals before! What's so different now?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58RjoNrFwO
Kakarot: “Everything we do is for survival. If we need to eat then we'll kill, if we need to defend ourselves then we'll kill. But that thing had nothing left to fight with. There's no reason to finish it off.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRhVNcbC7K
Beet: “I'm sorry, sir.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiae4HYPu0W
Kakarot: “Don't sweat it, let's head home already, we've got to help your mom prepare.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMNOBIj27x
Beet: “Right!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODZnQfYpJP
The family sat outside around a bonfire. The young Beet was tuckered out from his big day, he rested his head on his mother's lap, giving in to his fatigue. She caressed his soft hair and smiled. Kakarot kept his head low, pondering away at some troublesome thoughts. He caught a glimpse of Bulma staring and immediately looked away, hoping she wouldn't notice.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSxWjEoXOQ
Bulma: “Honey, you're acting strange.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeW1ZhrkjN
Kakarot: “I think my stomach is just upset from the boar. Maybe you didn't cook it right.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzggauzADE7
Bulma: “Hey! If you're going to be ungrateful then maybe I'll just let you starve next time!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMwU7bdSRJ
Kakarot: “Nevermind.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmK6ynHq7w6
Bulma's irritation dissipated, lowering her tone into a more gentle manner. She reached out and placed her hand on his shoulder.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqiB6L7CVT
Bulma: “If something is bothering you, you can always tell me.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpta0nuoP1
Kakarot: “.... Doesn't this ever get stale to you? A similar routine every single day?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFUMyNsZbd
Bulma: “I get to spend the day with you and Beet, we finally have the peace we always wanted, that's enough for me.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OqCsjuQVb
Kakarot: “I just think we could be doing more. I could be doing more. Is this really where my life peaks?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jMbNwQbCT
Bulma: “Is it so wrong to simply settle down and enjoy the family you've built?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSnCr6Qu5h
Kakarot: “Perhaps helping Beet with his studies is getting to me.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2por2lKxm
Bulma: “Yeah, you weren't exactly a scholar per se, haha! Cramming in those study sessions must be just as new for you as it is for him.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9lNf121mh
Kakarot: “Yeah.. I'll just sleep it off.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1R3FTH9i3

Somewhere on a nearby planet, an unforgettable nightmare was taking place. Three giant apes wreaked havoc upon the inhabitants of this world.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM44Be2qs4x

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdj3gfnIyN
“Only a fool would continue this struggle, if we surrender to their commands, at least our people will get to live another day. I'm sorry, Colonel, call off our men.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tH6lHjmS2
Colonel: “On it, my lord.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RL3pPQ5JM
The Colonel clicked on a button on a device he had strapped to his ear. He hesitated to speak before giving his final order.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlo9AiRhULY
Colonel: “Stand down boys, it's over..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALegovFQuy
The tension settled down as the apes reverted back into their natural forms.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG1pTr7C4I
“I was starting to hope they'd just let us destroy all of them.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt0JbzpIhO
The king himself confronted the deadly trio.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVKdnIs1Na
“King Tuffle, about time you come to your senses.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVwcjEq0SU
King Tuffle: “I have withdrawn my forces as you requested. We'll form an alliance like you desired and lend a hand in your fight. As long as you keep your side of the deal and let us be after it's all done.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0Cd2m35ov
“Hand me the device on your eye.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rjbqrXgw7
The king hesitantly reached for the piece that rested on his ear and handed it over to the colonizer. He wore the device with a confident grin.

“Hey Raditz, we can finally track down your little brother with these huh? He may be a puny runt but another saiyan wouldn't hurt.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxpT50HSKX
Raditz: “Yes, it's about time I pay him a visit!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgwAP0lZPL
Bulma: “Pass me the wrench, Honey!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAQSHy9iMA
Kakarot: “Give me a minute, I'm fixing something up over here.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0qutc7nw4
Kakarot twisted a bolt with the wrench before handing it over.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9k5kohGX3q
Bulma: “Thanks! It's kind of weird seeing you use these tools when you're strong enough to use your bare hands.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuAH2eNDuF
Kakarot: “I guess it's just more comfortable this way, it also helps me stop myself from accidentally breaking something.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDWifTXt4e
Bulma chuckled.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4q8xDInG5
Bulma: “Well, as long as we get this baby done, do as you please! You know, I'm surprised you went along with this after all.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin9WCHfERa
Kakarot: “It helps me relax, and if you really want to do this, then I'll support you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWAszT2CrL

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTh116bFLR
Beet: “Momm!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr97xw1dX5E
Bulma: “Hold that thought-”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkBtOnZXYc
The busy mechanic rushed to her son's needs. Kakaort returned to his work but was almost immediately interrupted by a shout coming from outside.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqk8MTPJUq
Bulma: “My husband won't answer to you!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtamQFOX3U
He rushed outside to inspect the commotion at hand.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cb5X8OSpD
Raditz: “There you are, Kakarot. This pesky woman was making this more complicated than it had to be.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzZfW2SwJ8
The saiyan stood his ground. He gently pushed his family behind him and confronted the strange visitor.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJELeoYaxH6
Kakarot: “Who are you? And how do you know my name?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFbtDD39fI
Raditz approached his oblivious sibling.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gNeSC63xo
Raditz: “There's no reason to be hostile-”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsTj7SS0Wq
Kakarot swung his fist towards Raditz's face. The saiyan moved his head out of the way with ease.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEE3VMCagj
Raditz: “You're testing my patience, Kakarot!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxOLAFyQVI
Kakarot: “You're playing a risky game coming here and demanding to see me all of a sudden. I don't care what you're here for, leave my planet or I'll make you!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtegsWVs3iz
Raditz: “So, the planet does belong to you after all. That's good to hear. This will be a perfect base to rebuild the saiyan empire hehe.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTUdwXfouF
Kakarot: “Enough!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxq83gDhulG
Kakarot flung himself at the unsuspecting saiyan. Raditz noticed at the last second but still managed to evade the frustrated warrior's attacks with ease.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNx1y5OhWG
Raditz: “Your attacks are not only slow, but predictable as well. You have the natural talent but you lack the proper training.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMMv6cMEhl
Kakarot threw a fierce punch which Raditz evaded at blinding speed. His movement played tricks on the saiyan's eyes, leaving behind only an after image with the real Raditz having already got a hold of Kakarot's blind spot. He smacked him away with a mighty backhand.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rzHhacfQt
Kakarot: “I couldn't even see him get behind me!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCvXJhk8ju
Kakarot wiped blood off of his lip as he struggled to get up off of the ground.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjzLEqTOl4
Beet: “Sir!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRmG4tN4XM
Beet rushed to his father's aid, throwing a kick at his uncle. Raditz flicked the child away with a strike from his tail. Beet crashed to the floor, hanging onto his consciousness.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQK9eyVJ10d
Bulma: “Beet!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAU2cettNp
Raditz: “The boy will be fine, don't worry about him. That look on your face, Kakarot, it's almost as though you've never tasted absolute defeat like this hehe.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gHVTApC4g
Kakarot's breaths were heavy, his body was petrified from fear. The feeling was instantly overwhelmed by a sudden rush of adrenaline. Before he knew it, his body stood, almost on its own. He rushed his brother once more, his blows were suddenly sharper and swifter than before. Raditz found himself putting in effort to defend the assault. Raditz blocked a kick with his forearm only to have it be immediately followed up by an elbow to his face. With only seconds to react, he stopped the attack with his palm, just barely avoiding contact. His eye twitched in irritation.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyIJzmgP0t
Raditz: “Enough! You're stepping far out of your place! Fool!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80D65e83v4
He drove his knee straight into Kakarot's stomach, ending his sudden burst instantly. Kakarot collapsed to the ground, his body refused to answer his demands, seemingly paralyzed. He gasped for air, struggling to speak. Raditz raised his hand, reaching towards the defeated man. Bulma yelled at him to stop as Kakarot flinched, accepting his fate. There was a sudden pause from Raditz. Kakarot opened his eyes again, only to see his older brother reaching out to lend a hand. Surprised, Kakarot used his remaining strength to force his hand up and got a grip of Raditz's hand. Raditz helped him to his feet before letting him go.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZriWgrwwE
Raditz: “You're quite the hot headed bastard, little brother.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZVbqJQWqX
Kakarot: “What? Brother?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRb42RreWoC
Raditz: “That's right, I'm your older brother, Kakarot. It may seem a little jarring, but you're from another planet, one that has long since ceased to be. You were presumably sent here to conquer this world, although I never understood why planet 4032-877 of all places.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9PdUaLYA7
Kakarot: “I always knew I was different. The people of this world made that clear to me, but I never imagined I'd be from a completely different world.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLgGCxeYcK
Raditz: “Yes, we're a powerful race known as the saiyans. We're a warrior race with natural gifts for combat. Our kind has conquered planets for ages, colonizing them either for the purposes of selling them or using them as a base. Word around here is that this planet belongs to you right?”

Kakarot: “Don't get the wrong idea, I didn't conquer this world for malicious intent, I simply did it to set myself free from their oppression. I don't wish to be an oppressor myself.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPb4FG2Sgq
Raditz: “Why do you even care? Those scum tossed you aside when you needed them. Whatever happens to them shouldn't concern you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EvNHjc8UK
Kakarot: “Why are you here? Brother.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX23Ku69efA
Raditz: “Right, I should cut to the chase. My name is Raditz, sorry for not properly introducing myself earlier. I'm not here for some late family reunion, I'm here to recruit you, little brother.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCBP7cD1cJ
Kakarot: “Recruit me for what?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeq8MfbFOht
Raditz: “Our Race has long since been reduced to mere numbers you can count with your fingers alone. It wasn't by no natural causes however, our kind were victims of a genocide from a tyrant known as Frieza. He enslaved our people and forced us to do his bidding for decades until we finally stood up to him and waged war against him and his forces. As fate may have had it, our forces soon fell, the rebellion failed and frieza believed it to be easier to simply wipe us out for good. There were some of us however who didn't partake in the war, we were off on duty, unaware of all that went down. For years, Frieza deceived the remaining saiyans into believing a meteor had struck down our planet. We recently found out it was all a lie invented by Frieza to keep the remaining of us loyal to him. What he doesn't know is that neither of us ever took pride in serving him! But this isn't just about fighting for our freedom anymore, this is for our proud race that he dared to look down upon! Join me, brother, let us retake our honor by slaying this bastard!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgERFqrp0C
Kakarot: “Forgive me, brother, but I can't do it.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFJDm1bv0a
Raditz: “Huh? Did you not just hear me? He took everything from us! His death must be by our hands!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9rAxywguu
Kakarot: “He took everything from you, my life is here, on earth. Besides, I've fought a war all my life, I don't want to jump into another one after we just reached a peaceful era.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFyERXpRZJ
Raditz: “I see.. Well, then let me spend the night with you brother, just for us to connect a bit before I return to my comrades.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs6ta0or9G
Kakarot turned to his wife, awaiting her approval. Bulma looked away and sighed for a moment before speaking up.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ffh6Z1VAg
Bulma: “Just no more fighting between you two, got it?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJi5BWr3N63
Raditz: “You have my word.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuLPTQ30BI
Beet sat on a chair, pressing some ice against his cheek.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMqZl7laAZ
Beet: “You hit really hard uncle!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx2YiYThuJ
He said in a mix of irritation and excitement.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDMypx51Lg
Raditz: “Hehe, that's saiyan strength for you, brat!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyZWt6DTyZ
Beet: “First Sir and now you, everyone is stronger than me! Well, except mom.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdgqzGdMKW
Raditz: “You worry too much, child, you're a saiyan like the both of us, a bit of a runt I'll say, but a saiyan nonetheless. You'll grow to be much stronger when you're older. Doesn't that excite you?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFUXBDMds5
Beet: “Heck yeah!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1MRNzq8TX
Raditz chuckled.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBl4ZGDsan
Beet: “You've left that plate sitting there for a while now, uncle. Aren't you going to pick it up?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKb66mkGc5
Raditz: “Why would I do that? Isn't that what your mother is here for?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPaqsgtRZ9
Beet: “Well, my parents say it's good manners to pick up after yourself once you're done eating.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGoBlgKzJr
Raditz: “You earthlings have bizarre customs.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9mCAcp80i
Bulma: “Beet! It's bed time, you got school tomorrow!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mrQI1cvvD
Beet: “But mom! It's still early, I wanna talk to uncle Raditz!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKoxHf0Q8O
Bulma: “I said get to bed! Now!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZnxiBALs8
Beet: “Sorry uncle, I gotta go.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSApspVsKd
Raditz: “Don't sweat it, kid, listen to your mother.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkOfYHZHQJ
Beet marched into his room. Bulma pulled Kakarot close to her, speaking to him in a soft voice.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dB6pQV6tP
Bulma: “Honey, I think I'm gonna sleep early. Don't stay up too late, okay? I still don't really trust him, it's best we get the day over with soon.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kP35Casnv
Kakarot: “I’ll be fine, you go rest.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03FhfTQYhk
They shared a kiss before parting ways. Kakarot approached his brother. They sat together in the living room, sharing an awkward silence.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvdX2UgH1N
Raditz: ‘I see you got yourself a tough woman, little brother. Hehe, just how us saiyans like em!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGT3lT0Zo50
Kakarot: “That explains a lot..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Er5UntuRA
Raditz took a deep breath.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdvSsbV1vi
Raditz: “Follow me outside, little brother.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2oDOMbvr3
Kakarot did not question his sibling and partook in his request. The two left the house and walked out into the night sky. Raditz levitated high into the air and Kakarot followed. Raditz came to a sudden halt. He faced the night sky, illuminated by the countless stars, miles away.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtkeAikl84
Raditz: “Take a look, brother, the universe is infinite. Why would you limit yourself to such a pointless, finite world like this one? Don't lie to yourself, this mundane life doesn't suit our kind. We're warriors! Born to fight!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizcsjRNLJ8
Kakarot looked down at his fist in shame.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAWrzX3bza
Raditz: “You feel it don't you, a calling greater than this piss poor excuse of a life you live.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62gCeIIoef
Kakarot: “I've never faced much of a threat on this planet, I've never truly been pushed to my limit. Earlier, when you humiliated me in our battle, I felt something. A rush, one like no other. I was going to die and yet I felt more alive than ever. What was that?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlWhNltLlW
Raditz: “That's your saiyan spirit, your saiyan pride! Take advantage of it, it's your greatest weapon.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoOWBuCKm0
Kakarot looked out into the starry, night sky.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFnEZx3D6q
Kakarot: “How many of us are left out there?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgqZAhF31m
Raditz: “Including you and I, there's four.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXG1CHr5tz
Kakarot: “By any chance, is one of them our father?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xLYLa6L5H
Raditz: “I'm afraid not.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xfY3fQCRg
Kakarot: “Did you know him?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KrGLncX49
Raditz: “Vaguely, I've heard about him before though. He was a powerful leader of an elite squad. Rumor has it, he was the one who led the rebellion against Frieza. Our father was a great man, Kakarot. Don't you want to take after his footsteps?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ysGh08gbB
Kakarot: ‘Yeah… Maybe I do.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezw34Uebtq
Raditz: “I leave tomorrow, I have an extra pod you can take so you can tag along. I can take you to meet the prince so you can join our alliance.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQxb6U2cAn
Kakarot: “The prince?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4O7B3NeQod
Raditz: ‘I'll fill you in tomorrow, go rest, we have a long day ahead of us.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfio1m9Dn9v
They descended from the sky and retreated back inside to sleep. The day couldn't have come sooner as Raditz prepared to depart.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmWUmrFC0h
Bulma: “I don't understand! We're finally at peace and now you want to run off into another fight that isn't even your own?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEmHqp6zWK
Kakarot: “You don't understand, this is my fight. That tyrant has to pay for what he did to my people.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOH8R3oitdR
Bulma: “They're not your people! They're colonizers! You're not like them!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrz2Q86TKiz
Kakarot: “….”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbt0OdalUTE
Bulma: “We're your people! Beet, me, our friends from the city!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCGtLNjOxd
Kakarot: “For most of my life, I was neglected by the earthlings, I was different and there was no one to guide me through this unwavering sense of inferiority! They're like me, I want to meet them, I need to. Besides, I can't shake this feeling that this is my calling.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3HTNccCs7
Bulma hesitated to reply.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCc786WGt5T
Kakarot: “Please, let me have this. I wanted a greater purpose, and I feel like this is it. I promise I'll return safely.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4HVH7qdk5
Bulma: “Please, be careful, Kakarot.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQwTsmoZnS
The pair shared a quick kiss before separating. Beet rushed to his father.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkYixpLNFH
Beet: “Sir!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgva6jLcU87
He came face to face with his father.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMg2J2nA5e
Beet: ‘Sir, please be back soon. I'll miss you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATn0KiqEHd
Kakarot gently patted his son's head and crouched to face him directly.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIVV935nqn
Kakarot: “I'll be back before you know it, listen to your mother and look after her for me, okay?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWPvmuF2bV
Beet: “Yes! Sir.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO7mL8q0xO
Kakarot retreated back to his brother.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9yqERWhca
Raditz: “Are you ready?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2L3SyKjqi
Kakarot: “Yeah, take me to the others.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhPLceIedQ
Raditz: “It was a pleasure meeting you all, I'll bring him back in one piece haha!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcL6nhCKr2
The brothers entered their pods, taking off into the vast space. Raditz communicated with his brother through a radio device within their pods.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD9wPomtUU
Raditz: “It's more comfortable than it looks huh?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIpvIMKHcC
Kakarot: “Definitely. Tell me, brother, what are the others like?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKKi2PEgL5
Raditz: “Well, aside from me, the other two saiyans are Nappa and the prince, Vegeta. Unlike us, they're top level elites with the prince being the absolute most powerful.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UlIUpyDzH
Kakarot: “They sound amazing.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuK0b2hwR8
Raditz: “They are, especially the prince. He's the strongest saiyan in history! They're both proud warriors, like me of course. You're on your way to becoming one of us too.’
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIK9kjbQzY1
Kakarot: “I can't deny, I am a bit excited.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrJzCECtmL
Raditz: “That's the spirit!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTpahFVfsH
In the span of a few hours, the pods arrived at their destination. The Prince and his comrade awaited their arrival, preparing to greet them once they landed. The pods crashed into the designated area, revealing the two saiyans aboard them. Kakarot fought to keep his composure, but couldn't help but smile after gazing upon the mighty warriors that stood before him. He approached them, taking a knee after reaching them.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFZy1utEM4
Kakarot: “You must be the prince, it's an honor to meet you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqeK6gHKBo
Vegeta: “You knew me before I even got to introduce myself, quite bizarre.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsk1y3DCfR
Kakarot: “I guess the introduction was unnecessary, from just taking a look at you, I sensed it.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6YHbvd0iA
The prince glanced at the humble warrior, before kicking his face, landing him flat on his back.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJb5Hcyi3q
Vegeta: “Stand up, boy. We're all warriors, are we not? Have some pride, don't ever lower your head to no one!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMQT6UDBB9
Nappa: “Looks like the rookie is off to a bad start! Haha!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNpGW5LPKA
Kakarot rubbed his face, he was confused for a brief moment but soon understood the prince's intentions and abided to his command.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb68NeDzXMS
Vegeta: “Follow us, we'll fill you in inside the… battle station.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesSuo0iJ3y
The prince hesitated.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoyE09dqyr
Vegeta: “Remind me again why we went with that name?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kYYQGL4kC
Nappa: “Haha, you see Raditz, I told you “Court Room” would've sounded much better!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLncxN1P9sY
Raditz: “Oh shut up you bald freak! Battle station is a fitting name!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXoZDBMBj7
Nappa: “Hey now! Don't come for my looks! Your freakishly long hair would make anyone want to go bald!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfiVAuPJ9b
Vegeta: “Pipe down boys, save that energy for the sparring session.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROdOxS2aFZ
Kakarot nudged his brother's shoulder. Raditz turned to his brother.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04ZFcZAo9A
Kakarot: “When I was at war with the earthlings, my wife and I referred to our base as the “Battle Station.”’
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCIZ0axK8y
He quietly mentioned. Raditz smirked.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMa3F7WAUcq
Raditz: “I knew you'd understand!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjI4vMKEpg
Kakarot examined his surroundings, quickly taking notice of the highly guarded area. The soldiers that surrounded them didn't appear to be saiyans, but they wore similar apparel. Aside from small animals and critters, no other signs of life were present. The vast land ahead of them was empty, only them and the soldiers occupied the space. They entered a large, elegant building with huge pieces of glass art, depicting an unknown civilization of people. They came to a halt in front of a throne with various seats. The prince took his rightful place on the throne as Nappa sat on a seat right beside, displaying a sense of authority. Kakarot and Raditz took a seat on a more mundane section, next to the Colonel in command of the Tuffle army.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuddvVGCr8t
Vegeta: “I'm sure Raditz already let you in on some of the details, correct?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZuWdM0jzg
Kakarot: “Yes, he told me about Frieza and what he did to our people. I've agreed to help you crush him on behalf of the saiyan race!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7C2dVNPhnW
Vegeta: “You've got spirit, but it's going to take more than that to defeat this scum. You see, aside from his troublesome power, Frieza also wields a powerful army. In order to get to Frieza, we have to get rid of that pesky army first. We've made an alliance with the Tuffle race, he who sits beside you is the commander of their military in fact. Having them on our side is a big help, but we can't be too careless, we need to recruit more allies. Until we get the remaining forces, we must lay low.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZoWaQZzcN
Kakarot: “Understood. So, where do we begin?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYx3R6IzQEP
Vegeta: “We've been eyeing a planet known as Tatsu. We hear their kind are great for combat, and legend has it, amongst them is one they call Amaterazu. If he's as strong as they say, forcing him to submit to our leadership could be just the advantage we're looking for!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOqFqC7lQe
Kakarot: “If they don't submit, what happens then?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveCE4IclZI
Nappa: “What is this weirdo babbling about? We kill them of course!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWtVcPoHKa
Kakarot: “Is it.. really necessary?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlk7i3gkkk
Nappa: “You can't be serious!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP1ttDQNvy
Vegeta: “Raditz, may I speak with you, in private?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rAtJWmMeS
Raditz: “Yes, prince.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Wp1zbaljH
The two stepped out for a moment, leaving everyone else in suspense.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHLqptuOUv
Nappa: “Looks like someone's in trouble haha!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcmyrSXCjx
Vegeta: “I'm having doubts about your little brother, you sure his mind hasn't been corrupted from being away from his people for that long?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSldUPd12cv
Raditz: “I'll admit, he's a bit of an oddball, but you know me, Prince, I can get him on board, just trust me. Take him to planet Tatsu with us, I'll work my magic.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgADxpkmUqU
Vegeta: “As you wish. I trust you won't let me down.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TTZkOLCDh
The pair made their way back to the room where the rest waited in silence. Vegeta took his place on his throne, continuing his speech.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknTeIymlnW
Vegeta: “Ahem, like I said, we'll be paying the Tatsu race a visit. If luck is on our side, they'll be just what we need to turn the tide on Frieza. Until further notice, we can't make too much commotion though, if Frieza finds out we're plotting against him, it's over. Now then, prepare your pods, we're leaving at noon. You're all dismissed.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqHj9s62gz
The group retreated from their meeting room and headed outside. Kakarot caught up to his older brother and spoke with a troubled tone.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx859d1CT4s
Kakarot: “Raditz, are we really going to kill all of them if they don't comply? What good would such an act even do for us?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4OTeIClSQ
Raditz: “I'm sure you had to get your hands dirty to conquer your world. Why is this any different?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3psxfbDGrW
Kakarot: “I fought for my freedom, not for meaningless violence!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcmdYZ6nAH
Raditz: “Listen, if we let them live, there exists the possibility of Frieza getting to them and getting information we'd rather he didn't have. We can't take that risk. It's just another sacrifice in the name of the greater good is it not? It's not their fault we chose them, but it's not our's that Frieza enslaved us after killing our kind. In order to win some, others must lose some. That is war, for someone that has lived in one all their lives, I'm sure you can understand it.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSYkWbJn5g
Kakarot: “Well, it makes sense when you put it that way.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGJNUPC9BZ
Raditz: “Now quit your whining, this is going to be your official, first real fight. Aren't you excited? Don't you want to feel that thrill again?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ435errZa1d
Kakarot's mood took a sudden turn. A smirk fueled by excitement lit up on his face. He clenched his fists as if the mere thought of battle pumped up his adrenaline.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetiUyvB0eS
Kakarot: “Now that you mention it, I can't contain the excitement. I heard Vegeta mention something about sparring.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZU5eGG3GiX
Raditz: “Oh yes, we have a special room for sparring.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsdKFPCmkj
Kakarot: “Please, brother, let me have another go, even if it's just for a few minutes! I want to fight! I want to be a great saiyan like you, and like Prince Vegeta.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4coIrj70Dq
Raditz: “I see, well, we can spare a few minutes before we depart from this planet. Let's get it on!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsgOX1y5aw
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cC5CTWRoR
Powerful shock waves swept surrounding rubble into the air. A few more shockwaves shook the area before Kakarot came tumbling to the ground.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3ebbWROHo
Raditz: “You're improving faster than I imagined.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGqnufoSBV
Kakarot: “Hmph, I can't say it doesn't bother me that you have to hold back just for me to keep up.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6J8jAL1Wa
Raditz: “Hehe, what can I say? Can't help being strong! Hmm… there might be a way for you to hold your own y’know?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJOHYGx4Zo
Kakarot: “What do you have in mind?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNj3pNOgDPN
Raditz: “Watch and learn, baby bro!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwxPitlHUF
Raditz raised his hands just above his shoulders. His ki surged into both of his palms, forming purple shaded ki spheres. He released them, shooting forward dual ki waves. He detonated them before they made contact with their surroundings.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSctM8fptbi
Kakarot: “What was that?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVogE7MUDu
Raditz: “That's my special move, I call it the Double Sunday. By focusing your energy into a single point, you can let out an attack with more power than your average strike. It took me a while to master this technique, but with practice, you should be able to come up with one of your own.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXszwCNUrHF
Kakarot: “You never cease to amaze me. Tell me, brother, if Vegeta is the prince, then where do you and Nappa fall in the hierarchy as the last of our kind?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SmMKedpFW
Raditz: “Nappa has always been Vegeta's loyal goon. That bootlicking bastard serves as his right hand man, unfortunately, he has the power to back it up too. I, however, am working my way up to a similar position. The prince has been considering giving me a permanent role in the royal force.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng11hxF7V2
Kakarot: “That sounds great. I hope it all works out for you. I, on the other hand, think Imma settle down with my family for good after all of this is over.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3imJj1iEf
Raditz: “You're quite odd for a saiyan if I'm being honest.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZaMBYYpU4
Kakarot: “I guess I just feel like I owe it to them after everything we've been through.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vGTxQxNPh
Raditz: “I'm starting to feel like this dream of peace of yours isn't living up to the expectations you had in mind.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7EE41IHeA
Kakarot: “You know, I really thought coming here with you guys would have cured this sensation, but I still can't shake the feeling.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kx9p1ZU71
Raditz: “You're thinking too much about it. Stick around for longer, in time you'll find that all you seek is here with us.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYp5giiLyi
Kakarot: “If you say so..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoB3ZZQAm0
“Raditz, Kakarot.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DDKqHzULI
A voice called out from the scouter on Raditz's eye.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdEk1mYnJ3
Raditz: “Vegeta, we're on our way! Kakarot, it's time to go.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRlfpg8Um1
Kakarot nodded and followed his brother. They headed to their pods, where the other two saiyans awaited next to their own.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls6mV8FpNM
Vegeta: “The Colonel has set the coordinates in our pods. The Tuffles also placed some new upgrades to these sweet rides, we'll get there in no time so be ready.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp44zBAZKK3
They all nodded in approval to the prince before entering their pods. The ships took off at blinding speeds. Kakarot observed the vast, outer space in astonishment. The wonders of the countless worlds beyond his own planet never ceased to amaze him. Before long, the pods crashed into planet Tatsu. The squad left their vehicles to confront their next targets, but to their surprise, the landscape was deserted. Not even the slightest sound of a small gush of wind was audible.

Nappa wiped sweat off of his head.

Kakarot examined the ground. A few pebbles and some rubble trembled off the ground. He felt a subtle shake.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgQSBsVdCn
Kakarot: “Something's coming from beneath us!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpFbuVzwM3
They all leapt into the air with only moments to spare as dragon humanoid creatures ascended from the underground. They remained still with their eyes shut.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZO4CJGlkj
Vegeta: “We've all got places to be so I'll make this short. I am Vegeta, the prince of the saiyan race. We've come here to recruit your people to help us in our war. If you fail to comply, we'll simply slaughter your kind. The choice is yours.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdR1Uoh7Pc
The creatures remained in a suspended animation-like state. Vegeta's eyebrow twitched in irritation.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTearoEDAwM
Vegeta: “These incompetent fools are mocking us!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh3jplXNsY
The eyelids of the creatures twitched. Their joints cracked and snapped out of place before restoring themselves back into their original form. They all turned to each other.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVfBFPqq1U
“Your foot is on my tail!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsm5XZ9iLZs
“Your tail shouldn't be there then!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsy91ZkWrvD
The two creatures swung at each other. Their fight created a chain of events, causing more needless fights amongst each other, before long, they were all partaking in a huge brawl.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMu3Bsk1ZTg
Raditz: “These numbskulls are nothing but barbaric creatures that give into their primal urges. They're useless to us!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfgcBPynqV
Vegeta: “Hmph.. Well, not entirely. Kakarot!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGzdDNtD9g
Kakarot: “Yes, Vegeta?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnEsADkkRH
Vegeta: “This is your chance to feel the true thrill of battle. Join us, we're about to show these fools a real rumble! Let em have it, boys!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnvnv2SUhD
The mighty prince smashed into a group of the battling creatures, blowing them away with the sheer force of the impact. Nappa lifted his fingers, generating an explosion that took out another bunch. A free for all battle royale commenced. Kakarot hesitated, he watched his comrades partake in the fight, feeling a sense of guilt for their actions. Raditz approached his brother.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGvpuLerAH
Raditz: “What? Got cold feet all of a sudden?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyDTC8NGdr
Kakarot: “Could Frieza even hope to interrogate these guys? What information could he even get from people as barbaric and dumb as them? We have no reason to kill them anymore.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPXRhMNYiX
Raditz: “They're lowlives that serve no purpose to us or even themselves. If we don't do it, they'll just kill each other regardless. Stop listening to those stupid ideals the earthlings instilled upon you. Your mind is telling you no, but what does your heart say?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpC9osN0yVz
Kakarot couldn't dare to face his brother in the eyes. The guilt he felt knowing Raditz was right was overwhelming.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIfYENqRIG
Raditz: “You're neglecting your own desires for something so meaningless. Go! Be saiyan! Show your pride! Us saiyans will conquer together, let them know that! I'll catch up with you later.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk9BfNuQFV
Raditz rushed to the battlefield in hopes to get in on the fun. Kakarot observed his fellow saiyans, watching how they fought. The prince made light work of the toughest of creatures, mercilessly ending their lives with single and swift blows. A smile overtook his face with every victory. Kakarot clenched his fists, fighting his urge. The unsuspecting saiyan was caught by a sudden blow to his face. The punch sent him to the floor. He snapped into action and returned the attack, knocking his opponent into another Tatsu, stumbling them both over. They caught their balance and set their targets on Kakarot. Without hesitation, they rushed the novice saiyan simultaneously. Kakarot struggled to fend them off, taking blows left and right from both. One of the creatures punched his gut, staggering the saiyan. His arms fell loose. His blood began to pump again, faster than before. A rush of adrenaline took over his body. He used the opportunity to catch and hold the creature's arm down and countered him with a powerful headbutt. He followed it up with a ki blast that blew the creature into pieces. He dashed to the other enemy, striking the bottom of his jaw with the palm of his hand and used the opening punch a hole through his chest. He immediately set his sight on more nearby opponents as the options were seemingly endless. He jumped into a hoard of the violent species and fought every single one at once. He took multiple blows in the process but returned just as much. Guilt, regret, love, hate, anger, all sense of emotion had lost its meaning, all but one, the overwhelming sense of excitement. He took blows from different angles all at once, the damage didn't slow him down as he leapt into the air and shot a ki blast that created an explosion which blew away a chunk of the hoard. One of them jumped out from behind, preparing a devastating attack. His efforts were intercepted by Vegeta who chopped his arm off and kicked him away. Kakarot turned around, realizing the prince had just saved him from potential danger.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡob8IeEpUKr
Vegeta: “You're starting to seem like a real saiyan. Don't get too cocky though, always watch your blind spot.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI0dkU3XCx
Kakarot smiled.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sNmzzKNnc
Kakarot: “Understood!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaKk8GCEc0
The two leapt back into action, taking on the hoard, side by side. They fought together in a flawless sync, their fists complimented each other's style, fighting together as though they were one. The ground trembled once more, more violently than before. The Tatsu species halted their combat and began to flee.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRJBqSimma
Vegeta: “What the hell?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0izci2SjKU
A similar looking dragon humanoid emerged from underneath. He was noticeably larger than the rest. Flames burned throughout his body. His presence alone disintegrated bystanders. Sympathy was a foreign concept to the beast as it had no trouble smashing through its own people as it approached the saiyans.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRiK6LoTNZ
Nappa: “Could that be, Amaterazu?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaKAUkF5jo
“I am Modora! The most powerful of the Tatsu race! No one wreaks havoc upon MY planet without getting through me!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0M64rawtJQ
Raditz: “Looks like we got ourselves an even larger hot head. He won't do us any better than the rest.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJbAcbU047
Kakarot: “I'll fight him!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OXoKlJUb7
Everyone turned to Kakarot in surprise.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADGP5bbe78
Kakarot: “I'm not done fighting! He'll be MY opponent!”

Modora: “You'll be my first victim then, give me your worst!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYCy71RGki
Kakarot jumped into action, pouring down a flurry of various strikes. Modora blocked each attack, delivering a powerful backhand in return. He knocked blood out of the saiyan and shattered some of his armor. Modora grabbed the staggered warrior and smashed him to the ground. His grip remained firm as he continued to slam Kakarot against their surroundings a few more times. His scorching hot skin left its marks on the saiyan.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECGIo800RE
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!

Nappa: “Poor runt, his first big shot is against someone out of his league, hehe, what a shame.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcYasNBsZK
Modora tossed him into the air, he engulfed his fist in flames and slammed it into Kakarot. The powerful blow shot the saiyan through the sky and straight to the ground. He stood up, visibly injured. His breaths were heavy, but to everyone's surprise, his smile remained as strong as ever. He charged back into the battle with no doubts or regrets. He rushed the dragon beast once more, this time, sneaking in a precise jab to the beast's forehead. He continued the assault with a kick to his neck and ki blast to follow it up. Modora slid back a few feet. He was in disbelief with the sudden shift in power. Kakarot's body screamed in pain, but the mighty warrior could only hear the loud thumping of his heart, fueling the adrenaline that gave him life.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxuwN8zuG1
Kakarot: “Come on now, don't back down so soon!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebbA4cTT3K
Modora charged at the saiyan, disintegrating and smashing everything in his way. He lowered his head as he went in for a headbutt. Kakarot caught his head. He was pushed back as Modora tried to force his way through and connect his attack. The immovable object had met the unstoppable force. Smoke came off of Kakarot's hands, the overwhelming heat of Modora's body was leaving its burns once more. Kakarot clenched his teeth, trying his best to endure the sting. He lifted the monster by its head and slammed him to the ground. Modora immediately recovered, launching a punch off the bat. Kakarot blocked the attack but was sent flying from the sheer force. Modora took the chance to commence an assault of his own. Kakarot fended off the attacks but the pressure was leaving no opening for a counter attack. Modora bypassed his guard and caught Kakarot with a few blows before being knocking him away with a blast of fire from Modora's chest. Kakarot rushed back into action, confronting the dragon once again. They traded a blow, knocking blood out of each other. They continued their slugfest, receiving and delivering attacks to one another, nonstop. A punch to the gut, an elbow to the jaw, an uppercut to the face, a kick to the rib, a kick to the head, the brutality continued.

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvI6fdR0teS
The elite's scouter scanned the low class warrior, revealing the shocking revelation that his power had shot up drastically.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeLIwm8JAA
Vegeta: “It looks like he's putting on quite the spectacle.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcG3yN0zGI
Raditz watched in disbelief. He questioned the situation, pondering about it in his mind.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBQjxD9dVp
Raditz: “He's not just getting stronger, he's improving too. He never demonstrated this level of proficiency before!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkHAwkP3RB
Modora huffed, taking a moment to catch his breath. Kakarot used the opportunity to catch a break as well.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELrqIinirZ
Modora: “All that and you still can't finish me, I think it's about time I bury you!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BZp3KnKfg
Kakarot: “So it's come to this point at last. I've been anticipating this moment!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4eObQA7Wf
Modora levitated towards the sky. He raised his palm into the air, where it engulfed itself within a ball of fire only slightly larger than his hand. Kakarot remained on foot. He raised his hands, aiming them at his enemy. They gradually developed a purple glow, sparks of overflowing energy emitted around the glow. He lowered his hands and clenched his fists before raising them in the same position again, letting out two purple beams of energy that circled around one another before merging into one larger beam.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVT27lkmII
Kakarot: “This will be your funeral!”

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyOfoh0ZGh
Modora: “Deadly incineration!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQl6QRnRJIo
The attacks crashed together, Modora's flames were put out almost instantaneously. The mighty beast suffered heavy damage from the blast and collapsed to the ground, steaming from the heat of the blast. Kakarot's eager demeanor faded. Raditz approached his brother in both shock and concern.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHNLyQNv6w

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbCW7UkOVs

Kakarot: “I don't know what happened back there, but it was exhilarating! I never knew this is what it meant to be a saiyan.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHudHiP2ZZ
Kakarot raised his arms in the air, he savored his victory for winning had never felt so rewarding. He shouted at the top of his lungs.

Kakarot: “Huh?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PoxeFYI8v
Modora ascended from the ground with no warning, landing a clean slash with his claws on Kakarot's chest. Blood gushed out as Kakarot collapsed from the off guard attack.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsdbqAvc4R
Raditz: “Why you!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbp8a1t5meY
In a mere instant, the angry warrior smited the weakened beast with a single blast, leaving nothing behind. He rushed to attend to his injured sibling. Raditz held him up.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatERndZsl7
Raditz: “Kakarot! Answer me!”

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2Jgtm5Jy3
Raditz remained composed but his thoughts quickly ate away at him.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ85qqiHBzh
“This doesn't make sense, he could have easily taken a full power blow from that thing head on. Why did a simple attack like that nearly do him in? Hmm..I'll have to look further into this later.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpta1CYEeze
The ship took off, heading straight back to planet Plant. Kakarot was immediately rushed into a room with medics as soon as the ship landed.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPfQ3N8gxW
Doctor: “There's not much left to do here other than a few stitches and basic medication. Are you sure his injuries were as severe as you claimed?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhJohChpWp
Raditz: “I'm positive.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3G0AtP83p
Doctor: “Well, it looks like his body has recovered enough to dismiss any urgent treatment.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HJ4RQrGav

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQJVJw0HnF
Doctor: “I will sir.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOk3AxRMk3O
Raditz left the room. Kakarot rested for about an hour before regaining full consciousness. He stretched out his arms. His joints felt relaxed and more flexible than ever. It was almost as though his injuries had never happened.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEutZoc66T
Raditz: “You're awake, it's about damn time.”

Raditz: “Haha! Don't get too ahead of yourself now, you still need more to catch up to me.”

Kakarot: “When is our next crusade?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFU8m74lLF
Raditz: “Cool it down a little. This is going to be a long process, we can't just rush into another planet without knowing if there's anything of value.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7A1yFHfdan
Kakarot: “If that's the case…perhaps we could stay on earth, don't you think? It could make the perfect base!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTIZSUgtI8
Raditz: “I've had that idea too, Frieza would never suspect we'd be hiding out in such a low value planet. To most, your world is useless, but to us, it has all the resources we need and more! But why the sudden change of heart?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aRs2NbDpe
Kakarot: “If I'm being honest, it's not really about the saiyan empire for me. When this is all over, I'll head back and leave this behind. But if I bring it back home with me, bring you guys home with me, the thrill won't have to end with the war against Frieza. I don't want to leave you guys, but I don't want to leave my family either.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GhH31vaWP
Raditz: “If all goes well then you might just get what you're asking for. I still don't understand this obsession you have with your wife and boy though.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAbCEdRxfB
Kakarot: “Are you saying you never loved a woman?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrPycUw59H

Kakarot: “You know I'll always keep you guys safe, but I'm done rejecting my wishes, my calling.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZbMQyxiUp

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7EeAjRvXF
The boy struggled to contain his excitement and followed his father. Kakarot picked him up and swooped into the air, flying to meet up with the other saiyans. They flew past some damaged cities with frightened citizens running around.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOt6wTtzcr
Beet: “Sir! What's going on over there?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLkG2T2ytg

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP415PG4bwC
Beet: “But they look scared, Sir.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ztlk9pkFL
Kakarot: “They'll be fine. Humans tend to fear what they don't understand. Our family won't cause any harm, they're here to help this torn planet. You'll understand when you're older.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLI6hK01R9Y
The boy simply nodded and watched, incapable of shaking the uneasy feeling from the sight. Kakarot descended near a large space ship, surrounded by soldiers. Beet held on tightly to his father as they walked past the intimidating army. They reached the entrance to the ship.

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84T4tCwut0
Kakarot: “Yes, that's right. That would make him a half blooded saiyan if I'm not mistaken.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ86ZcqaHk
Vegeta: “What a shame, he won't have the full might of a pure blooded saiyan, the crossbreeding seems to have been successful however. Earth is the perfect ground to repopulate our race!”

Vegeta walked up to Raditz, getting close to his ear.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mwjZxydJK
Raditz: “I don't get it, what's so special about that kid for you to demand something so meaningless?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbhKF4ORt9
Vegeta: “I have a little theory, but I'm not sure I want the rest to find out if it does end up being true. I'm trusting you with this.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiy7cRDCBx
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince, but I'm not entirely sure if I'm okay with using my nephew as an experiment…”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcqtIfoxl4
Vegeta: “Don't tell me your brother's earthling values are rubbing off on you, Raditz.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjyaGFBvX1
Raditz: “No. Of course not..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsCBTAxNPO
Vegeta: “Then do as I say, prove to me you're deserving of the position I've been offering you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybKJZYqoi4
Raditz: “I will..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20CSHATlDi
Raditz turned to his comrades.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywQvPQAyOi
Raditz: “I will be taking Beet into the battle chamber. You're all excused to leave.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAKtQFQzxw
Kakarot: “Hold on! I can't just let you take my son without me!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeg9gTx1wq
Vegeta: “Calm down, boy. This is the reason I asked to meet him. Besides, it's in our tradition to not question our superiors.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfBUum1s4n
Raditz put his hand on his brother's shoulder.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGV1agTPwI
Raditz: “He'll be okay, think of it as special training.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKOEEQ6shk
Kakarot hesitantly nodded.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgC8DDnStCk
Kakarot: “Go with your uncle, Beet. Have fun, okay?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEZavfGPHl
Beet: “I will, Sir!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28H6XGGjZN
Kakarot: “I'll be outside.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatgrAcukwh
Beet: “Okay!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSZVNYgzNu
Raditz: “C'mon now, let's go.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkafqPIQLVl
Beet followed his uncle into the training room.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GlUEJPK8t
Raditz: “That's pathetic! You can do better than that!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFn36HuHONV
Beet forced his legs up. He wiped blood off of his lips.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k3VTM7zou
Beet: “I'm going to be strong, like you and Sir!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrlyCTt0wE
The boy lunged himself forward, giving his uncle everything he had. Raditz smacked him away with a backhand.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8WlbxqZJ7
Raditz: “You're nothing but a runt, you'll never be like your father.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedsFOxNCNM
Beet: “Th-That's! …Not trueeee!!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsPrGDANzV
Beep! Beep! Beep!!
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WJhRDqazd
Raditz’s scouter went haywire. A powerful wave of energy burst out of the young hybrid's mouth. Raditz's eyes widened before jumping out of the way at the last second. He slowly looked up, immediately noticing the damaged wall from the blast.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKmQ6s3aGq
Raditz: “That's… Impossible!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuEKIi6v89
He gradually lifted himself up, still shaky from what he had just witnessed. Beet fell to his knees, his body could no longer take the punishment.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCCL5e9G7n
Raditz: “That's enough, pipsqueak. I'll take you back to your father alright?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywln4YhHw8
Beet: “O-Okay.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8wWxqTsxe
Beet collapsed to the ground. Raditz lifted his nephew and returned him to his father.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjaqyq9qi6
Kakarot: “What happened?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBd1l1G5Mv
Raditz: “The boy is fine. Head home Kakarot, take the day off.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlE60DtoFZ
Kakarot: “What about the settlement? Won't you guys need my assistance? I know this place better than you all.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBr2Nmuumt
Raditz: “We can take it from here, just go.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrZsa51Imf
Kakarot: “Fine.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgav3h3E12M
He stared at his brother for a mere moment before taking off with his son. Raditz made his way to Vegeta's personal room inside the ship. His thoughts ate away at him.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X6VaXQxX8
“What could he want with that boy? Should I tell Kakarot?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiSNckeziZ
He snapped out of his head upon reaching the Prince.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXRpvtRMyK
Raditz: “Vegeta, I've gotten a proper measure of his strength.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme51Y1fFKf
Vegeta: “What did the scouter say?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb3EayIz2k
Raditz: “It… It exceeded 10,000..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5FdpefLMK
Vegeta: “It looks like my suspicions were correct after all.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJL5KuTAHMX
Raditz: ‘What's going on? I don't understand what you're getting out of all this!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6kAdICPNO
Vegeta: “You know it's not tradition to question me, Raditz.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZofXWgr5Ai
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYX6dkUrbk
Vegeta: “The spot you seek is still open for anybody who proves their worth. With that being said, I have faith in you Raditz. I know better than to trust your word, but your actions speak louder, so swear your loyalty to me and I'll continue to keep you in mind as my ears and eyes.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8Fq2R08hx
Raditz: “I swear on everything, I'll remain loyal to you and only you!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbLVdDgSgs
Vegeta: “Good. Keep the following between us then. I had a slight suspicion that the hybrid could actually be STRONGER than a full blood.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYk6zqSfa4
Raditz: “But how is that even possible? With such weak genetics, wouldn't it only bring a saiyan down?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEgYPN6wNl
Vegeta: “On the contrary, it means he has both the potential of an earthling and a saiyan combined, and that's not even considering it's the boy of a low class like Kakarot.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDRyGnLZfZ
Raditz: “You mislead the rest to save your reputation then?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpbMpWey2y
Vegeta: “You're a sharp one, yes I did. If the rest found out they could breed warriors more powerful than myself, my role as the prince would be diminished. I'd be seen as a joke. I'll have to birth a son of my own to take my place before that. For now however, we won't have to worry about that, I've discouraged any desire to spawn new warriors. Frieza is our only priority. The only lingering issue is Kakarot's boy.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIgEzQHrJz
Raditz: “You won't have to worry about him, sir, he can't use that strength at will. It will be a while before he learns to muster up that power on his own.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpL96HnnN4c
Vegeta: “I see, time is on our side for now, we can continue to focus on Frieza, until then, can't let the others know about the power hidden within the hybrid, I trust you'll make sure it stays that way.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe77gKadU4R
Raditz: “Understood.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRn2S07jZZ
Vegeta: “You're dismissed.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqgz3RXkJ9
Raditz departed from the room.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7txVW6xX5
“Haaaa”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcr2Rtmzz4H
An explosion erupted. A warrior with battle armor and a spear went flying from the impact. He slammed to the ground and laid unconscious.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSqgI14FiW
Raditz: “Nice one, brother! Don't forget what I taught you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhLINbssrC
Kakarot: “Right.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTugzV1THjX
Kakarot lifted the defeated warrior from his head and blasted a hole through his chest with an energy attack.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VpBQPO1KD
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent. I won't make that same mistake again.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZVSyTOzbQ
Raditz: “As it should be! Glory comes from victory and victory isn't certain until your opponent is eliminated permanently!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUCx436l1t
Kakarot: “A lot of talking, brother! Let's get back to fighting!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoOQpBJ4CB
Raditz: “Hehe, you rascal.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23Xccv5URO
Time would fly as the saiyans battled their way through different civilizations, recruiting while simultaneously ending many. Their conquests would take a short pause in between.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQECxfGSvf
Kakarot: “Bulma, I'm home. Prepare me a nice meal, why don't you?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KwiiaPhNd
Bulma: “I made some miso soup earlier, enjoy the leftovers.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGkbbxVW9j
Kakarot: “What's with the attitude?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYb4Fgef3U
Bulma: “The man of the house is gone for months with no warning and he's the one who gets to be upset. You stop by less and less every time, I don't even know why you still bother to come at this point since you're probably going to leave again this same night!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJ0hvQgd5H
Kakarot: “We're not having the conversation again!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GE00mQ74F
Bulma: “We'll have it as many times as we need to until you get your act right!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30rY76x6d9
Kakarot stared at her in silence. Beet entered the room, returning from outside. He instantly caught on to the tension between his parents.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3BRAh1g5p
Beet: “Is everything okay?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxaCaiRgfa
Kakarot: “Yeah, we're all good.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuWhDWVqXv
He replied, still staring at his clearly upset wife.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDFsrIIseo
Beet: “I'm not dumb! I know you guys are fighting again! Why? Why can't you guys just get along like before?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOwSrl9n2W
Bulma: “Sweetie, we aren't fi-”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdITJqI4Sn
Beet: “You're lying! Stop lying! I miss you, Sir, stay home today, please?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw36p5OapWR
Kakarot frowned before nodding his head.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxUmFQ1SS2
Kakarot: “Fine. Fine, I'll spend the night, okay?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyP1lXCQ1b
Beet smiled and hugged his father. The sun couldn't have set sooner as Kakarot stood near the door, preparing to leave. Beet slept peacefully, unaware of his father's absence in the room.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn03dwpajg1
Bulma: “You just couldn't help yourself, huh?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLA5JfqFjd2
Kakarot turned around.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO6XRQT25e
Bulma: “What happened to you? You're not the man I grew up with. Kakarot is a loving man that fought for peace. He was a man that protected and provided for his family, a loving husband and father. Whoever this us right now, I don't know you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Xb5yQdmh1
Kakarot: “I was everything you needed me to be because you gave me what no one else did, I never once stopped to consider who I wanted to be.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcArwi5rEJ
Bulma: “I only wanted to make you happy and to make you feel safe like you did to me on the day we met! You saved me from the red ribbon army after they tried to kidnap me for my inventions, you remember, right?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZLDXSNIuO
Kakarot: “I couldn't possibly forget.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrQ9dANBb3
Bulma: “We looked out for each other ever since. We loved each other! Where did that go?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZExVW9pMCX
Kakarot remained silent. He simply frowned.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1Tx6k2csA
Bulma: “You know what's the worst part of this all? Everytime you leave, there's this look on your face, this-this thrill! It's been making me start to think that you actually like what you do out there.. But my greatest fear, is that maybe, you always have.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEbqoUq6DT
Kakarot: “Hmph… I've recently been wondering why I still bother to stop by here myself.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmy9R9bE0S
He turned right back around and exited the place he once called his home, flying away into the distance. Bulma took a seat on the nearest chair and broke down into tears.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lNy29gB2d
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfKMe7Z2kj
Vegeta: “Alright boys! The time has finally arrived! We've gathered enough troops and have raised our own battle power significantly throughout the process. I can comfortably say we have a shot at destroying Frieza once and for all! Colonel!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xQ0zq9F7H
Colonel: “Yes? Prince?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYn7a0Y62yd
Vegeta: “Prepare the troops and run the plans by them again. Oh, and don't try any sort of rebellion against us this late into the party. I guarantee you we'll be the least of your problems if Frieza gets a hold of you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJl9UW1TSL
Colonel: “Understood…Sir.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsL3fp8lS7d
Kakarot tapped his brother's shoulder.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF87vG12SpY
Kakarot: “Are you excited? Brother?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9gZwkCnCa
Raditz: “Getting too excited for this one might cost you. Don't take Frieza so lightly. Remember the plan little brother, we'll see each other on the other side once it's all over!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAESkieFDTO
Kakarot: “Right!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4cAZp05YY
Vegeta: “Kakarot.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqZdzD40KW
Kakarot: “Yes?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45n30UOvkd
Vegeta: “You'll be with Nappa and I.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv91GkeXkG
Kakarot: “Oh, w-wow! It is an honor, Prince Vegeta!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AN8RAJEqZ
Raditz: “Huh? But you said I'd take that role!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2s0NyITMfU
Vegeta: “Kakarot surpassed you a while ago, I'm not taking risks with an inferior saiyan.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj8luzPwaN
Raditz clenched his fists. He gave his brother a spiteful glare before taking a few breaths.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWA1zNCbMc
Raditz: “As you wish, Prince. I'll take Kakarot's task.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMFN0UA9j1
Vegeta: “Raditz, head to your separate pod and take your leave at once, we'll group up in the ship along with the others once the Colonel deems them ready.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHh6TJ1eoAx
Raditz: “I'll see you all later.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9D21peMrU4
Kakarot: “Raditz!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEyV98OZmi
Raditz turned to his brother.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEbCdvya09
Kakarot: “Be careful.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwO6JqjCRb
Raditz: “Right..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQ7cCRS0qO
Raditz took off with his pod.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxeWl7UVor
“Someone is entering the atmosphere!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoV2EIZHcAH
“Let me take a look.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tWWwBHmRW
Beep! Beep! Beep!
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXLoCkqz0E
“Oh, it's just one of those putrid saiyans. No need to worry, I'll go greet him myself. I just hope his hideous looks don't rub off on my beauty.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNaxBfAnFt
Zarbon approached the landing vehicle. The pod met its destination and out came Raditz from inside.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYO3ybWmZ3
Raditz: “Greetings, Zarbon.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZpmZVAKe3
He bowed in respect.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QYY9xo1mi
Zarbon: “At least you know your place.. State your business, saiyan!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbES8D84esF
Raditz: “The prince would like to speak with the lord.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhIIXt4Ng9
Zarbon: “You know he can't come barging in on such short notice! Especially since our lord is quite busy right now.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahlc1TnQeS
Raditz: “I understand, however, I must clarify that these are urgent matters for we've gathered a lot of profitable planets and slaves for him. We have tons of eager customers awaiting his approval. Please, inform the lord as soon as possible! You wouldn't want to make him upset by letting such a big opportunity slip by him.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSj9KE94CjV
Zarbon: “Hmph. I'll inform him at once. My only conditions are that you stay by my side at all times, I cannot risk you pulling anything sneaky, I know better than to trust YOUR kind.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9Xf6D51w8
Raditz: “As you wish.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYm8UaRjJl
Zarbon signaled for him to stand and follow his lead.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0S1GwKSKON
Nappa: “So once he gives the signal, we make our move?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvox1UjwCeB
Vegeta: “Precisely.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUFHiYqn55
Nappa: “What exactly is the signal?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlsKK3nkrN
Vegeta: “Okay, I'll run it all back at once so we're on the same page. Raditz will lure Frieza back to his base with his proposition.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uE2U12Waz
Zarbon: “Take a seat over there. There's guards outside so don't even think of anything! I'll step out to let lord Frieza know about your request.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUkZV4nteH
Zarbon took his leave.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbVPcv3kQR
Vegeta: “Once he's got sight of Frieza's ship entering the atmosphere, he'll launch an artificial moon into the sky. That will be our sign to make our move. With this distance, the scouters can't track us but we can't track them either, so Raditz needs to be the one to alert us.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NvJvIBRK2
Raditz sat patiently, noticing one of the guards peeping at him. He turned his gaze to the guards direction.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hiM3bEpp7
Raditz: “Ya got a problem? Fool!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHV21kcLUq
Guard: “You won't be this bold when Lord Frieza arrives!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI115exlFbE
Raditz chuckled.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eFNpJNor7
Raditz: “Yeah. We'll see.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmIkTOdrtu
Vegeta: “We'll use the artificial moon to transform into great apes and hit Frieza with everything we've got! A surprise attack to finish him for good! Frieza never leaves without at least one of his right hand men, if we take him out, we get one of them too. Less opposition for us.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6UV36deOg
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7R9lisou6
Beep! Beep! Beep!
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemU0haD0KJ
Raditz: “He's here…”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡep16ofRSom
Vegeta: “Once we've wiped that ugly tyrant from this world, we'll send in the troops to help us destroy what's left. Frieza has too many loyal goons that would stand by him even after his demise. No one gets out of here alive!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeswhhC5Mot
Raditz took his stand and shot his artificial moon into the sky, smashing through the roof in the process. The commotion alerted everyone within the site.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFvZ3LAq7w
Vegeta: “It's time! Let's end this!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQM3WU79qsz
The saiyans commenced their transformation as their ship rapidly approached the planet's atmosphere.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48KKDYozgn
Zarbon: “I warned you, saiyan!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOWBPjnSij
Raditz: “It's too late now, pretty boy! Frieza is finished!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwE9P7JWRb
Dodoria entered the room with a sinister laugh. Raditz’s eyes widened, he felt his soul leave his body for a moment.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7uJa53ppl
Dodoria: “Surprised to see me?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHU6JtjeZZ
Raditz: “N-No! This can't be!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1MAh6K8CZ
The mighty trio shot forth their attack in union, obliterating Frieza's incoming ship, causing the remains to crash into the ground. They landed their ship and reverted to their base forms.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFrDZ9Z6ol
Vegeta: “Hehe.. That fool never saw it coming!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8rh3ijlr3
Vegeta signaled for the others to follow his lead while the soldiers they had recruited went on to finish Frieza's army of henchmen. They approached Frieza's fallen ship. Vegeta lifted the remains.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywJiYYKfJL
Vegeta: “Here lies the foolish emper- What?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxJgE0yqfj
Vegeta desperately searched through the remains.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkc2cjPGpe6
Nappa: “What's wrong? Vegeta?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXVPmp5WxX
Vegeta: “This ship… I-It's a decoy!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimL65SQxPO
Kakarot: “What! That means-”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHewaposmh
“Quite the bold attempt I must say. You know, I knew you'd turn on me one day, Vegeta.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9DTDVzB33
Vegeta: “Frieza!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH7Cz5BSGc
Dodoria: “Looks like your little plan didn't go out as you expected!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm72J5BKYRC
Raditz: “Damn it!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8PS027pQ5
Zarbon: “Do us all a favor and don't resist. You know it'll only end up being futile in the end.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1OmeTxdZA
Raditz: “I guess I don't got a choice huh?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UwLCxuLm4
Raditz shot a small blast at the ground, creating a wall of blinding smoke. He lunged himself forward at Dodoria, smashing him through the building.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHfYOrskOR
Frieza: “I can't say I'm not impressed, I never expected a simian like you to be able to plan such a calculated rebellion. It's a shame things have once again gone south for you saiyans.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwUkkIyE6s
Vegeta: “No! It's not over! Not yet! We'll just have to destroy you the old fashioned way.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9Bv11zIUX
Frieza: “I'd love to see how that plays out.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDkCrw7TRU
Dodoria: “Rrraaaaa!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJfsCVL1n7
Dodoria shot a blast of energy from his mouth. Raditz caught the beam and redirected it back to the sender. Dodoria was blasted away and crashed to the ground. Zarbon approached from behind, going for a surprise kick at Raditz. The saiyan warrior caught on just before the kick connected and blocked the attack. Zarbon was left wide open which Raditz took full advantage of.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDoG921bmz
Raditz: “Eat this! Weekend!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNARaRxUU3
A ball of purple energy burst from Raditz's hand, crashing into Zarbon. The impact sent him flying away. He recovered as quickly as he could and reunited with Dodoria.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXsVe5HDeQ
Dodoria: “What the hell? How did he get so powerful? Something must be wrong!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVudNAVreHu
Zarbon: “Let me check the scouter.”

Zarbon: “His power level is 35,000!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9ejgNVd4R
Dodoria: “But Raditz has always been a weakling! How is that possible?!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIb5FDnr3M
Zarbon: “Perhaps Lord Frieza made the right move in eliminating their race, their ability to grow should not be overlooked. We have no choice! We have to fight together!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZOs9AQW5H
Dodoria: “Oh great, first I get showed up by some low class saiyan, and now I have to work with you. Just my luck.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD2befaOW6
Zarbon: “I'm not so thrilled to fight alongside someone as repulsing as you either.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvntAgIqqDo
Dodoria: “Whatever, let's get this over with!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZcow784NC
The pair went forward with their assault. Raining down a barrage of various blows at Raditz. The saiyan warrior fended off every blow, but the overwhelming flurry left no opening for retaliation. He jumped out of their reach but they immediately tracked him with a united ki blast. He blocked the blast, taking no damage from it. He took a surprise kick from behind his head by Zarbon and suffered an immediate follow up punch by Dodoria.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdInO3pNwiq
Raditz: “I can't take them both like this. I have to get rid of one of them first.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFK6qB0Y1B

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLYfisDbdD
Dodoria: “Why you!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnQ2llZsag
Dodoria charged forward with Zarbon following only a few feet behind. Raditz broke a chunk from the hill and crushed it into dust with his hand. He smirked and threw the left over rubble from the rock into their eyes. The impact shattered their scouters and blinded them temporarily.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WkTaJ6bbp
Raditz: “Got somethin in your eyes?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUchyjUAwI
The saiyan warrior struck Dodoria with a knee to his head. He followed up his kick with a blast that completely blew off his head, killing Jim immediately. Zarbon desperately rubbed his eyes, removing the irritation.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wX4pIkaVI
Zarbon: “Damn it! It's really come to this hasn't it? Take a good look saiyan, this is the last thing you'll ever see!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklFpIySpBA

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmi85yqAYG
Frieza: “Ho! Ho! Ho! Give it your best shot, monkey.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiS6IOMwRa
Vegeta charged his energy, the entire planet shook in fear of his power. The ground trembled and mountains split. Without further hesitation, Vegeta darted to Frieza, rushing him with various attacks. The tyrant struggled to fend off the attacks, coming to the realization that the prince's gloating was more than just talk.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjDcDvMZbP
Frieza: “Haaa!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqs3OAzaMN
The tyrant blew away his surroundings with his explosive power, relieving himself from Vegeta's pressure.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiPHgROTjJ
Frieza: “I don't need any more of your little demonstration. I'm aware now that if I commit to this fight I could come out on top perhaps, but the other monkeys would likely intervene and ruin it for me. There's no purpose in entertaining this any longer.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC1LKEhL94
Vegeta: “So you concede to my might?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqutovM0EIm

Raditz: “Ggaaahhh!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYMOE7Gjis
Zarbon crashed his arm into Raditz. He pounded the struggling warrior, knocking blood out of him with each blow. Raditz retaliated with a kick to his face. He leaped into the air and scattered a barrage of ki blasts at his monstrous opponent. Zarbon quickly recovered from the attacks and charged forward, headbutting Raditz in his face. Raditz returned the attack with a headbutt of his own. Their fighting took a short pause.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LDSd4HG9w
Zarbon: “Haha! You're starting to wear out, saiyan!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMAFt1TuNb
Raditz: “It's a pain to admit, but he's more powerful than I am. If I draw this out any longer, he's going to kill me! I need a different approach.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7zBJDnhLu
Raditz detonated a ki blast in front of the 2 of them, creating a blinding smoke cloud. He ascended higher into the air.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcx1Lv8nMi
Raditz: “Scatter Shot!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KvRTFRrI5
Raditz poured down a barrage of blasts. Zarbon grew overwhelmed. Raditz took his chance and slammed his knee into Zarbon's back. The sudden blow caused him to drop his guard, leaving him open for the blasts he had been fending off. Zarbon took the force of the ki attacks head on. Raditz yanked his hair, pulling him down and elbowed his face with his other arm. Zarbon retaliated with a fearsome jab to Raditz's face. He continued with a nasty slap. The terrifying soldier grabbed the saiyan's ankle and dashed to the floor, slamming him to the ground at full force. Raditz laid on the ground, using every ounce of his will power to stand. Zarbon stomped on his chest, forcing him to remain put. He continued to apply pressure, crushing Raditz’s ribs. Raditz desperately attempted to remove Zarbon’s foot but his efforts had no results. He found an opening and delivered a clean kick to Zarbon's groin. He jammed his thumb into his right eye and kneed his jaw. Zarbon held his face in pain.

Zarbon: “I think we've been at this game long enough!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhg3R5G6tTY

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrCM6LAXnU
The tyrant’s body went through a terrifying metamorphosis. His limbs enlarged at different rates and proportions. His power level burst through the roof, the saiyans began to lose their composure as fear took over their consciousness. Frieza ended his transformation, revealing his true strength.

Vegeta: “You've had a power up like this all along, and we never knew…”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzV6bMemP4
Frieza: “Oh this isn't a power up, prince. The form you saw before was but a mere mask, a method of concealing my true power to not accidentally blow away this solar system.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bdEbggsYR
Kakarot: “Vegeta! We can't cave into the pressure! We must see this till the very end!”

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwZAfd2fcw
His body grew as he morphed into the beast known as the Oozaru. Zarbon watched in fear as his opponent grew to a massive size. Raditz stomped on him, killing him immediately. He spotted his allies, noticing their struggle.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQ83a36gB7
Raditz: “Frieza's off guard, this is our chance!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDYWw5HsKe
He charged an attack with all of his might and shot a blast from his mouth towards the tyrant.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8k1ag1DJL

Frieza: “There's no point in playing around, I can't risk it with these monkeys! I have to use my final form!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4Mjm5YBkV
Frieza stood and chuckled. His irritation faded away, shifting into a sinister smile.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnGTb89CrW
Frieza: “I'll spare you the suspense. I guess I must reveal my truest form off the bat!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf37t6xexgY
Kakarot: “Not again!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACiRW4vLpe
Frieza lifted his hand, creating an explosion around them. The force knocked them all away, providing enough distance for him to safely transform. He went through another change, taking on his true form. All of his prior injuries healed.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzZEHTJnZX
Vegeta: “Quick! We must turn into great apes while we still have the chance!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa7STGFLIE

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgZ7xGsZME
Faster than any of them could track, Frieza shot a swift and small beam from his finger. Kakarot watched helplessly as the beam headed straight to Vegeta.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSRrhpvXNv
Kakarot: “Look out!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ1OkH1H4n
He reached his arm out, desperately trying to get a hold of the prince and move him away. His efforts were pointless as the beam approached faster than he could close the distance. The laser hit, Nappa collapsed to the ground.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ806LqcckGc

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOmuawFq9C
The loyal saiyan drew his final breath, succumbing to his injury.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1AD4sdXjn

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneThK8cxNb
Frieza: “What? Were you all left petrified by my power?”

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yTMnMQWet
Kakarot commenced the battle by charging headfirst at the cynical tyrant. He lunged forward with a ferocious punch. Frieza dodged the attack with minimal effort. Raditz and Vegeta soon followed along, rushing Frieza with a flurry of attacks of their own. Frieza fended off the attacks with ease, demonstrating his sheer dominance. Kakarot continued his assault. The three attacked together in union. Explosions and bloodshed filled their surroundings as the soldiers from both sides continued their brutal war. Frieza raised his hand, he blew the opposing saiyans away with a wave of force. They retaliated with a ki blast shot in union. Frieza leaped into the air, evading all three at once. Kakarot rushed at him, swinging multiple fierce blows. Frieza dodged them all, returning a kick to his ribs. He spit out blood. The blow left him stunned from the pain. Frieza elbowed his cheek, sending him crashing to the ground. Kakarot shut his eyes tightly and clenched his teeth as he groaned in pain. He felt his broken body struggle to stand, and yet, against all odds, he stood. Vegeta dove straight in with a kick. Frieza caught his leg with his tail. He smirked as he watched the powerless saiyan attempt to free himself from his grasp.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVw3KnvDhJ
Frieza: “Done playing around yet? Vegeta?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR99H2tKlP
Vegeta shot a ki blast to the tyrant's face. Frieza flicked the blast away with minimal effort. He delivered a heavy punch to Vegeta's liver. He spit blood and gasped for air. Frieza tossed him into a building and followed it up with an explosion set off by his eyes.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwS20f2w35
Raditz: “Double Sunday!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBYfukOPOE
Raditz unleashed his most devastating move. Frieza stopped it and dispersed the attack with a single hand. He flicked his hand towards himself, pulling Raditz closer with telekinesis.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlGD57VA4k
Raditz: “I-I can't move!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Dsm1rds90

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrq8oi4Kdv
Kakarot burst out into the scene out of nowhere, and swung at Frieza with a kick. Frieza barely managed to evade the attack.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47FW8zkd4r
Frieza: “You again!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0NY1B2hhW
Kakarot's face dripped in blood, his gaze was tense and focused on Frieza and nothing else. His fury overtook his consciousness, there was no room in his mind for words, only action. He viciously swung at Frieza, his blows ripped through the air. Frieza blocked a punch.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHmXD7Vq08
Frieza: “You actually made me raise my guard. Interesting.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BWkSY9jLD
He yanked his arm and kicked the back of his head, following the attack with a whip from his tail. Kakarot crashed into a nearby building. He burst out from the rubble, charging at Frieza yet again.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKiLCkRKDp
Frieza: “What? I don't understand! There's something different about you!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLESK84Pas1
Kakarot landed a knee to Frieza's gut. He balled up his hands together and slammed them into Frieza's back. Frieza fell straight down but caught his balance before crashing against the ground.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuc2CXgj14B
Frieza: “You dare lay your hands on me!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0QhYtRTMG
He lifted his arms, large chunks of rubble went flying towards the saiyan. He smashed through them with his bare fists. Frieza used the distraction to land a mean headbutt to his face. He kneed his gut and punched his jaw. Kakarot was powerless against the tyrant’s onslaught. He took every blow head on. Frieza kicked him into a nearby hill, smashing it into pieces. He flew after the airborne saiyan, juggling him through the air with multiple blows. He delivered another punch to his face, knocking more blood out. Kakarot gradually turned his head back, pushing through Frieza's fist. He grabbed his arm and twisted it. Frieza yelped before getting punched in the mouth. Kakarot grabbed him from his face and zoomed to the nearest building, slamming Frieza's head into it. Frieza kicked him away, creating some distance.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDEUUq9CZv
Frieza: “This isn't right! I broke you! I felt it in every attack! You shouldn't even be standing!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFdMj8aKuO
Kakarot's pupils were bright gold, his power shot up as his hair grew. His might shook every nearest planet. Raditz looked up from where he laid.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdtFa392mk
Raditz: “Is that really him?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEbzvnGmWb
Kakarot: “F-Friezaaaa!!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eHsuEQs0g
Kakarot breached the distance between him and Frieza, landing and uppercut to his jaw. He followed it with a hook to his cheek and a knee to his chin. Frieza blasted him away. He sent forth and endless barrage of blasts, each exploded upon colliding. Kakarot began to force his way through the blasts. Fighting through the pain. He reached Frieza who immediately backed away upon seeing him appear through the attacks.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkIeQGmmZm
Frieza: “No! No!! You're… the super saiyan! There's no other explanation for this!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9ON7Qi7a1
Raditz poked a button on his scouter.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVDDBLluNk
Raditz: “Vegeta! Is what I'm hearing true? Has Kakarot truly become a super saiyan?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSejYo3ddM
Vegeta was snapped out of a trance.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQxwo7DtZE
Vegeta: “N-No. The super saiyan legend, he's supposed to be a golden warrior. This is different. It's hard to believe, but the one who stands before us is no longer Kakarot. Somehow he's managed to channel the power of the Oozaru without going through the transformation. Kakarot's been overtaken by his own strength, right now, there is no friend or foe, only combat.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuX39UvU4L
Raditz: “But how does that even happen?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3VNBBmNNk
Vegeta: “I'm not entirely sure, but I've seen it before, a saiyan gets overtaken by their own power and leaves us with no choice but to be put down. I… I don't think we can stop Kakarot's rampage.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbKw11GUGx
The two clashed back and forth. Trading blows. With each blow Kakarot grew more powerful and terrifying. His body shut out the pain of his injuries, focusing all of its energy and adrenaline on the fight. He rushed Frieza with a punch to his gut, slamming him into a mountain, smashing it upon crashing. Frieza froze him in place in a sphere of energy and kicked it away like a ball. He repeatedly kicked it around before spiking it to the ground. Kakarot rose from the ground. His armor was shattered and his body was battered. He put his arms out and shouted. His power spiked as the planet trembled. He clenched his fists and opened his mouth. A ball of energy formed in his mouth. Frieza raised his finger.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbi4YOeagyX
Frieza: “I'll just have to wipe you out along with this planet!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbP2iCmlSfK
A massive sphere of energy released from Frieza's finger. He tossed it downwards towards Kakarot. Kakarot fired a blast from his mouth. The attacks clashed, each pushed back against the other. The force of their struggle shook planets and stars. Frieza's supernova was claiming the edge, gradually forcing its way to its target. Raditz leaped into action, launching a special attack of his own to push back against the world ending wrecking ball. Vegeta soon followed.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZovylrhzrN
Vegeta: “Galick Gun…Fire!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk3WJsIItP
The prince unleashed his ultimate attack to support his allies. The three gave their all against the tyrant’s most fearsome attack yet. The planet crumbled, cracks formed on the ground. Soldiers were crushed by rubble or consumed by the planet's scars. Frieza's body bulked up.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CdFpJ60fo
Frieza: “You've asked for it! This is my full power!! Haaa!!”

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3Um3t9sWq
A projectile darted to Frieza's head, slightly discombobulating him.

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3dSYxBk5B
“Haaaaaa!!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBriUjGCFZ
The trio used the distraction to find an opening in Frieza's attack, piercing through it and hitting the tyrant head on with their combined power. The destructive force of their beam sent Frieza crashing down.

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfBgAeBMgt
Raditz: “Kakarot! It's me! Raditz! I know you're in there!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN7JdUhv89

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkhhLdG3pr
Kakarot's grip loosened but he continued to hold his brother in a lethal position.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkwGbLvk2f
Raditz: “Fight for your consciousness, brother! You can overcome your overwhelming power and make it yours!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77p5mS3xms

404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHr7BjRJdl
Frieza used the last of his strength to shoot one last attack at Kakarot while his back was turned. Kakarot felt a new sensation, a 6th sense that allowed him to feel the attack heading towards him. He turned around and punched the attack away. He approached Frieza at blinding speeds. He stood in front of him for a moment, looking down at him.

Kakarot punched Frieza to the ground. For a split second, the tyrant saw a flash of the warrior that rebelled against him many years ago.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14oFdrqqgy
Frieza: “You're… No! But I killed him! Wait.. that means you're-”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSV4svFrdfS
Kakarot: “My name.. is Kakarot! And in the name of the saiyan race, I'm going to send you straight to hell!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNRRfVZ2t7
Kakarot finished Frieza with a blast that disintegrated every last remnant of him.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewFyDMFMAB
Kakarot: “It's done…”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvOtjEVxtm
Raditz: “He he he, Ha! Ha! Ha! We've won!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡue5orAKcro
Vegeta ascended into the air.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEGZSYakEo
Vegeta: “Everyone! Listen up! Frieza is dead! Head back to the ship! I'll finish the rest!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8hCstKCqW
Their military began to retreat back to the ship. Frieza's men fell to their knees, some begged for their lives, others preferred to perish than betray their lord. Everyone regrouped in the ship. The ship took off into space, leaving not too far away from the atmosphere of the planet.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5jqckgNlQ
Colonel: “Prince Vegeta! What about the survivors? I thought the plan was to end every last one!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pAaUUtVvD
Vegeta: “Of course, I've left them a little present.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMMnOilzUG
The remaining soldiers of the Frieza force watched as a small shard of ki sank into the planet.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjGBoAI070
Vegeta: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYonhJ83tK
The planet exploded leaving no trace of its existence behind. The men cheered, the Colonel shook the prince's hand.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBwthBcG7y
Colonel: “It has been an honor serving you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtLEA1MG5X
Vegeta: “As promised, you'll be with us from now on.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNncfEidWta
Colonel: “And the rest of the Tuffles?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtPW1WAefG
Vegeta: “I have a purpose in mind for those inferior people.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVQO9CooPJ
The Colonel smirked after securing his success and retreated to another room. Vegeta on the other hand, couldn't find it in himself to crack as much as a smile. Kakarot took a seat.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCmoimyuvG
Kakarot: “That power I felt earlier, I don't understand it, brother. Normally these experiences are exhilarating, but this, it was maddening, terrifying even.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS1lUNlHzn
Raditz: “I don't quite understand it either, but that power avenged our people. You've fulfilled your destiny, right?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcdujruAXP
Kakarot: “Yeah… I guess I did.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRc7uiZfobh
Vegeta glared at Kakarot. His gaze was locked in on him for the entire ride back home. The ship landed on earth. After all the action, everyone was fatigued and mentally drained. They took the rest of the day off to rest. The next day couldn't have come any sooner. Raditz reported to the “Battle Station,” as per Vegeta's request earlier.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpHntAzOxk
Raditz: “Good day, Prince, how may I be of service to you today?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRc54pniI3
Vegeta: “Your brother put on quite the spectacle yesterday, didn't he?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIykSj4ez7M
Raditz: “Yes… He did.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSuIVgNDP7
Vegeta: “It doesn't take a genius to realize he's left us both behind.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rrKWQf3rk
Raditz: “Yeah, it is quite apparent.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdyO2HlxKS
Vegeta: “With Nappa gone, his position has been left open. I'm providing you an opportunity to seal the deal for good and sit by me as a conqueror.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPwqlhNnkK
Raditz: “What are you suggesting? Vegeta?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAEDPq3CzP
Vegeta: “I can read you like a book, Raditz, you're a notorious schemer. With Kakarot rising in the hierarchy, you've gained the perfect opportunity to seize the throne from me by his side and let your bloodline rule for centuries to come. But I'm telling you know, it's a plan doomed to fail.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilVq8ivdVL
Raditz: “Considering your competition, your threats don't mean much right now. So enlighten me, why is that path doomed for failure?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI38CBMaqXK
Vegeta: “Even now you play your cards to end up on the winning side. Kakarot isn't a leader like me, he couldn't even bare the responsibility of ruling his own planet after having conquered it. On top of his uncontrollable power, he's unstable and ultimately unfit to rule. Your empire would fall apart and eventually all that power would mean nothing. If you want to win, you stick with me.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyWcPkt3Ew
Raditz stared at the floor, lost in his thoughts.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTOcOB5FdH
Vegeta: “I know your real problem, Raditz. This isn't about you choosing which side benefits you most, you've simply grown soft. His earthling nature has rubbed off on you, but both you and I know that this mentality is his greatest flaw. One that will cost him dearly one day, one that will cost YOU everything. You're a saiyan warrior, you know what the right choice here is.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhZGYq1vRc
Raditz: “W-What do you propose? Even if I went along with it, we can't stop him.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKtGO4WTPi
Vegeta: “He has a soft spot for you, the same way you talked that fool into joining us is the same way you’ll convince him to leave for good. I can't afford having him show me up, it would permanently bruise my reputation. I need you to get rid of him one way or another. This is your final task to secure your spot next to me.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTp0ydnKG8
Raditz: “I won't fail you, Vegeta. I think I know how to get him off our backs.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQVTzggAEd
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18zy2J9IlE
Kakarot pondered deeply, looking into the dim, cloudy sky.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xZG2CxeQt
Kakarot: “I've avenged our people, I should feel great and yet I feel more conflicted than ever. Everything was great and now I'm back to square one.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmI8HaiaZvc
He looked at his fist in shame.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLDT8r5j6I
Kakarot: “That moment, it felt so strange. Losing myself in battle is a common occurrence, but in that moment, I feared nothing, not for my life or even the life of my comrades. I almost killed my own brother. I'm lying to myself, the truth…. The truth is I loved it… but it scared me.. Bulma… Beet, they're probably still waiting for me. I haven't seen them for a while.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAWeyoyUvm
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDfDCWPTTR
A sudden static came from Kakarot's scouter.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalPqxpRb0W
“Bro—-er! You ne—-ed to come! Q—--ck!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaAR2DxRyb
Kakarot: “Raditz! Is that you!? Raditz! What's wrong?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4mo00iFn1
Raditz: “I— tried to save th—m!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvHhEm7JhR
Kakarot: “Where are you?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ927v5XwBd
Raditz: “Y—our place!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgK0OFb6QC4
Kakarot: “I'm on my way!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uapTJP2Ii
Kakarot anxiously rushed back to his home. The sky roared as a thunderstorm broke out. Vicious rain drops poured all over the land.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAE6uHO9kE
Kakarot: “Has one of Frieza's loyal followers found our base? He's probably seeking revenge against me!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡee7bqHcLCh
Kakarot arrived in mere moments. Raditz waited for him outside. Most of Kakarot's home was battered up and crumbling apart.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RTNin24p6
Kakarot: “Brother! What happened? Where's Bulma and Beet?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBW3Ljk1e5
Raditz had a cut on his cheek and some of his armor had been damaged. He took a moment to catch his breath.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLNwYGKDvS
Raditz: “One of Frieza's goons, Frieza had many connections… I guess they didn't waste time in tracking us. They damaged my scouter too, I couldn't get a hold of you sooner..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhuXtBkAC9
Kakarot rushed inside, disregarding his brother. He tossed aside the rubble that he once called his home. After some digging, he found Bulma and Beet, laying still on the ground, stained from their own blood.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafKvIygwfh
Kakarot: “No…”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGf9rJF9bvJ
Raditz limped behind him, putting his hand on his brother's shoulder.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Onsho0s0G
Raditz: “I'm terribly sorry, Kakarot. I found them like this by the time I arrived. I couldn't save them…”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZr7po1KNoC
Kakarot: “No, no, no, no…. They should have come after me.. no..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IXfkXNFug
He fell to his knees, and held his son in his arms.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHOQfgFTk5
Kakarot: “B-Beet… I should've been there, to protect you.. both of you.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrSk8DwG2f
Raditz: “It's a real shame… he cried out for his “Daddy” in his last moments you know.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPJW3E4Smj
Kakarot: “I wasn't there for him..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXi4ortIcMk
Kakarot froze for a moment. His eyes widened.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BL7PCdxPI
Kakarot: “You… You said you found them like this when you got here..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrrHXmbqaJ
Raditz: “Let this be my final lesson to you brother. Trust no one.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM2dOY4wRG
Kakarot sensed an incoming attack but was too late to react. Raditz shot a blast through Kakarot's back from behind, piercing through his liver. Blood dripped from Kakarot's wound and mouth. He laid on the ground, struggling to move or speak.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCURqeR96lS
Raditz: “I really wish it didn't have to come to this, brother, but the prince is right, being around you made me soft, I had to let go of you if I truly wanted to succeed.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGlxY1fm8a
Kakarot: “H-How.. c-ccould.. youuu..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehrZPjL3Fv
Raditz: “Back then when we destroyed the Tatsus, I learned something. Our power levels drop in moments of vulnerability, even the weakest of warriors can fatally wound the mightiest in such a scenario. To think your biggest weakness would be your heart in the end haha! Let my words sink in while you draw your last breaths.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0uAFWAjR8
Raditz flew away, leaving his brother to die. Kakarot helplessly looked at his deceased family, unable to speak or move properly. The rain left him colder than his body was already getting. He groaned in pain for a while before his groans gradually died out and his eyes fell shut.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzRkQyNkZi
Raditz: “It's done, sir.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlO4ytF8fLK
Vegeta: “What did you do?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR5cadLEy6
Raditz: “I got rid of him and his boy for good. They will never get in our way again.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCFxJe2A8l
Vegeta: “That's what I like to hear! I'm a man of my word, from here on out, you're my right hand man.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6MKq4RKdX
Raditz: “It is an honor.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7WjaTKrBD
Raditz bowed down in respect.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTlgr8Dp0u
“Prince Vegeta! Our security has been breached! They're headed your wa-”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkssMqQwvsf
The signal was cut off in a violent manner, before they had time to process the warning, something smashed through the entrance.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6uzwcR6mP
Kakarot: “Y-You!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaidnDuusK
Raditz: “Impossible! He should've succumbed to his wounds!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnFfdxEQ9K
Kakarot took heavy breaths and struggled to stand.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EFvKC5wRK
Vegeta: “Well, looks like we have a mess to clean up. In his condition, he won't last very long. Assist me, Raditz, let's make sure he stays down this time!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxTjs6bWIo
Raditz: “Right!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcMgMdJnej
Kakarot: “I-I don't understand! What happened t-to the saiyan pride! We were friends working towards the same goal! What about N-Nappa!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmomOzDUJH
Vegeta: “Nappa was a fool that let his emotions cloud his judgment.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FOkDVNBEG
Kakarot: “He was your friend!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesrmkFg3rs
Vegeta: “And he paid the price for it.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4BK8SMbon
Kakarot: “I l-looked up to you guys!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXUNLGAv9x
Tears ran down his face.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjr5G0fTF6
Kakarot: “I gave up everything to be a part of you all! B-But you're just like everyone else.. power, control, that's all that really matters to you huh? Saiyan pride is nothing but a load of bullshit! It was never about Frieza or the saiyans was it?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32jtAlMsZp
Vegeta: “Of course not! The strong survive and the weak die. Those not willing to do anything to remain at the top and nothing less, are mere weaklings simply waiting to die!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPVSl1W80l
Kakarot: “Haaaaa!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3G8ZWpGz8F
He shot a blast at his fellow saiyans. They evaded his attack and rushed to attack him. Vegeta and Raditz attacked from left and right, overwhelming Kakarot with various combinations. He fended off the attacks but had no room to counter. Raditz kicked his injured liver, staggering Kakarot. Vegeta used the opening to land a straight right to his face. The saiyans kicked him away in union. Kakarot crashed through a wall from the building. They immediately continued their assault, following him outside, raining ki blasts on him like the rain that poured from the clouds. Kakarot struggled to free himself from the pressure, taking the blasts head on. He got a sudden burst of power and used it to hit Vegeta with an energy blast that knocked him away.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGDoz30wgh
Raditz: “Vegeta!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTl4I1Gpmz
Kakarot rushed Raditz, tackling him to the ground. He pounded his face a few times before grabbing a hold of his neck.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PK3sJWWyq
Kakarot: “Why!? We're brother's! Why would you do this! You meant everything to me!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbbpDxTmtF
Raditz smirked.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XoJyG8a6G
Raditz: “I w-wont lie to you.. I really did care about yo-u.. Br-other. B-But that love made me weak. The w-weak don't survive.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUN1O8QSTil
Kakarot: “So none of this ever really mattered, huh? I should've killed you back in our fight with Frieza!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3x8fGaCl2
Vegeta came in with a kick that knocked Kakarot off of Raditz. Kakarot got on his knees and rested his hands on the floor. Tears ran down his face. He laughed hysterically while simultaneously sobbing in a disturbing fashion.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdjEebCpTd
Kakarot: “Ha! Ha! Haa!! None of this matters huh? It never did! Nothing does!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIff8H3Ht5I
He pounded the ground.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMSOTAD9Hk
Kakarot: “I should thank you, brother, you've opened my eyes! Both of you have! I spent too much time caring about meaningless, worthless things. I'm Kakarot, the greatest warrior that ever was and ever will be! I was only born for one thing and one thing only!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2U9CgWP0pz
His hair grew in length and his pupils turned golden. His eyes developed a red, deep outline. He stood up, his demeanor was more relaxed from before and he had no trouble standing.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmrlM2rP2k
Kakarot: “To fight!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnCT9PDOE3
He dashed at them, striking them both at the same time. He grabbed Vegeta from his face and slammed him into the ground. He then turned around and elbowed Raditz in his eye, followed by a knee to his nose. Raditz held his nose in pain as it leaked blood. Kakarot punched a hole through Raditz's gut. He spit blood, holding onto his brother's arm.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KGyRYv88x
Raditz: “B-Brother.. You w-wouldn't kill me.. right? I'm…all you have left.. p-please let me make things right..”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L8z8NHhI4
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent, remember?”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskCky1wxmE
Kakarot chuckled and removed his fist. He blasted him away. Raditz's lifeless course collapsed to the ground.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0EE8WFkCz
Vegeta: “Big Bang attack!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmk6XXNth8b
The prince launched a fierce attack. Kakarot deflected it with his bare hands. He rushed to Vegeta, ramming into him with a headbutt. He kicked him away and shot a blast to follow up. Vegeta came crashing down, struggling to stand. Kakarot dropped his knee into his spine.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnrnXJnYoo
Vegeta: “Gaahh!!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUFUU73kEV
Kakarot grabbed him from his hair and slammed his face on the ground repeatedly. The pain in his wounds diminished as his strength grew. He got off the prince and turned him around to face him.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdOJj950RC
Vegeta: “You don't… want to do this, Kakarot.. I didn't want to tell you… but we've discovered these magical orbs known as the dragon balls… I have one in my possession.. The plan was to use them to make me immortal, but we can restore your family instead, you won't be able to do this without me!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLNGRTenBv
Kakarot: “You still think this is about my family? Or even your betrayal? I've spent my entire life, devoting myself to other people. I spent my childhood wanting to be accepted and a portion of my early adulthood fighting a war to live a peaceful life with a woman. I dedicated the rest to a family and eventually to you guys. I thought this was all for me, but it was always for everyone but ME. But now, this isn't about the saiyans, this isn't about my family, or even about your betrayal, this is about me! There's nothing left to distract me from my real destiny and I've never felt more satisfied! So go to hell, Vegeta.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs1pfid2kJ
Vegeta: “Wait!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0y8xeUk75k
Kakarot finished Vegeta with a blast, leaving his corpse to rot. He looked up at the sky, showering in the rain. He smiled brighter than he ever had. The universe's greatest warrior had been born.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBG7BiGdtk
Kakarot: “After years of exploration and combat, I've finally made the time to gather them all together.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKrI9N7Upk
The seven dragon balls glowed in union before the mighty shenron burst out from within them.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5be39C7eM3
Shenron: “Speak your wish.”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYuYxtgYUD
Kakarot put his hand on a special vehicle he had beside him.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGA6i0wBQBU
Kakarot: “This took a while to complete, but alas I've gained the opportunity to travel across worlds. So now, I have a few questions I want you to answer for me, eternal dragon!”
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhynyJzoTa
Shenron: “As you wish."
