Frieza: “I almost feel some guilt having to do this, I'm aware you were one of our more loyal ones, Bardock.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBabZM7G7E
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9V5Rlxice
Zarbon: “My lord, shall I dispose of this trash?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Kpnn7W2dF
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMj0crb9Ew5
Frieza departed from his space pod, heading towards Bardock directly. They came face to face, only a few feet apart.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblq1tXLb77
Bardock: “Haaaa!!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNId3m5OPQL
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRZ45eq6mN
Frieza: “All your efforts couldn't even leave a mere scratch, but how dare you lay your filthy hands on me!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK3lbSJOdB
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiCMjlQ4W4
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvPdmxkFiS
A small pod zoomed past them from a considerable distance. Bardock watched it leave and smirked.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsL2YcLrB3W
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYcXEf6an7
Frieza: “Well if that's your dying wish, then I shall consider it.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhPzVyd4Kh
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yTLsKfdOC
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLKIvftycR
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsmRQh2QKf
Frieza: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NkAikjWS0
Bardock: “Go Kakarot…. Be the warrior I never could and show the world who you are!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVhUabxdXQ
Bardock, along with his planet, perished becoming one with the empty, infinite space.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGg0KC7O17
“Your alliance has fallen, Commander. Teaming up with the government couldn't save you, you're out of options.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgn2BhFv6Gp
Commander Red: “You're..You're a monster!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSNdE2cY6j
“The world brought this upon itself when it decided to turn on me and reject me. This war was all because of you!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAB2Nwm1i2
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wx2MBehsg
Kakarot crushed the severed head of an android that he held, with his bare hands.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPNkEhan0g
Kakarot: “This world will never throw me aside again! For it now belongs to me! Kakarot!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj13IcfbpIQ
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1j4U73kVC
“Damn it! The signal hasn't returned! Where are you? Kakarot!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMR97Q10i2O
Kakarot gently landed from the air.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7VKxB8eMZ
Kakarot: “Bulma, it's over.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60FhqpGLUq
Bulma rushed towards him and greeted him with a tight hug.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutGiNV3O1X
Bulma: “I thought something had happened to you! Your signal cut off!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJuAXJghSy
Kakarot returned the affection before acknowledging her concern.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRc7amZWLf
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkL8ll4PCg
Bulma looked down and sighed. Her grip on Kakarot loosened. Kakarot frowned, noticing her discomfort.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmMm70Xmmz
Kakarot: “What's wrong?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOasNvQegk
Bulma: “I'm grateful for our freedom, but don't you wish this all could have been different?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvpFAuTl0N
Kakarot: “I don't understand, what are you referring to?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDe7KUg6gD3
Bulma: “We destroyed many lives for the better of our own. I'm not sure I'm allowed to celebrate this victory…”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfAkr7DLxu
Kakarot gently pulled her towards him, holding her by her hand.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zCiKFJeXz
Kakarot: “What matters today is that we get to live in peace. We can have a future together at last.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdpFI9GMNV
Bulma: “Yeah.. I guess you're right. The world is our's now, where do we even begin?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRd7eHsa4tn
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tOwVnxZZo
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsEywAiGtp
Kakarot: “Here it is, just as you asked, the largest boar I could find.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDufgjelY0R
Kakarot put down the carcass of the freshly hunted boar.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7bc1GtKlO
Bulma: “Hey! You're getting blood on the floor! Leave it somewhere else!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8FqCWvDZ1
Kakarot: “Jeez, fine I'll leave it outside in the meantime.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcOiGXX3U8
Bulma shifted her focus back to her personal project she had been working on.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1aZ5wi7YH
Kakarot: “You've been cooped up here for a while, what exactly are you making?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoPKCVNpfl
Bulma: “It's a stretch, but have you ever wondered what lies beyond our world? Not just the galaxy but our universe as well.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGlxhhNvCL
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a4JMGxZon
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHKX3N0jAz
Kakarot: “So you're building a sort of vehicle I assume? What's that going to do?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QDZrDOfXD
Bulma: “You could tell it's a vehicle from this small progress alone?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvcYH0AdJZ
Kakarot: “That's clearly an engine, not one from any current technology we have though. Okay..I confess, I occasionally tinker with your stuff.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVL7vSy3xX
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa4yPsWvSh
Kakarot: “You're still bent on this..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZrE1D7jor
Bulma: “I just can't fathom why it doesn't bother you as much! Don't you feel any remorse for what we did?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyGNWtRLad
Kakarot: “We did what we had to, I took no joy in it, but it's what had to be done.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1C3kAGIGd
Bulma sighed and dropped her head.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOVzYgMziI
Bulma: “I should get to cooking that boar, I could use the break.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HXsvWnR01
Kakarot: “Hm… Where's Beet?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWp502BhHB
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbSB7eIG80
Kakarot: “Looking for a good hunt I bet, I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0s1cXwD70
Beet: “Haaa!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoyGEdtfA9
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzX6XCUcUOX
Beet: “Darn! I should've picked a smaller one to challenge!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomjTeq7oks
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0lDcxS9Xx
Kakarot: “You've still got a lot to learn boy.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzGkcbHtsn
Beet: “You made it just in time sir!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzPVdmODwv
Kakarot put his son down and faced the dinosaur.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW62Dwe593W
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-”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9bpHzJBhf
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNzObmBTL1
Kakarot: “ …..If you take away its tail, it won't have anything left to defend itself with.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxE6kYgvIR6
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dnN0kqVIU
Kakarot: “Enough”!
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxH5fSqKFa
Beet: “Huh?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMQsiEUq6i
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr9PDUogSk
Beet: “But sir, you've let me hunt animals before! What's so different now?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiIRi1m3KJ
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQfrCy9U4t
Beet: “I'm sorry, sir.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusPy1OlWOv
Kakarot: “Don't sweat it, let's head home already, we've got to help your mom prepare.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeF9dhQBU9w
Beet: “Right!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMLHCsMI6m
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0pAO7PZN4
Bulma: “Honey, you're acting strange.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VcFuLX60R
Kakarot: “I think my stomach is just upset from the boar. Maybe you didn't cook it right.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6WjRVHrZa
Bulma: “Hey! If you're going to be ungrateful then maybe I'll just let you starve next time!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGxFwtXJK0
Kakarot: “Nevermind.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm6srGnwzz
Bulma's irritation dissipated, lowering her tone into a more gentle manner. She reached out and placed her hand on his shoulder.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAW1xyX1LN
Bulma: “If something is bothering you, you can always tell me.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Phc5TqyJ9
Kakarot: “.... Doesn't this ever get stale to you? A similar routine every single day?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs918uk425F
Bulma: “I get to spend the day with you and Beet, we finally have the peace we always wanted, that's enough for me.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IlTWaWanK
Kakarot: “I just think we could be doing more. I could be doing more. Is this really where my life peaks?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONAiqVS8im
Bulma: “Is it so wrong to simply settle down and enjoy the family you've built?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWrITRMeDl
Kakarot: “Perhaps helping Beet with his studies is getting to me.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjkWCWxOeC
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45QCNVHM9B
Kakarot: “Yeah.. I'll just sleep it off.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCklPnblg2

Somewhere on a nearby planet, an unforgettable nightmare was taking place. Three giant apes wreaked havoc upon the inhabitants of this world.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiX6BIaBchW
“We have no other option, it's time we surrender.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCW43vBDLU
“But my lord! We've already lost so many! We can't give in to their chaos when we've gone this far!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFbwurE9OI
“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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09SpnRodoO
Colonel: “On it, my lord.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdJe5Np0gS
The Colonel clicked on a button on a device he had strapped to his ear. He hesitated to speak before giving his final order.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwavYPKC9k
Colonel: “Stand down boys, it's over..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3AZUgxDPb
The tension settled down as the apes reverted back into their natural forms.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBoDfGGiig
“I was starting to hope they'd just let us destroy all of them.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SdUd9DDkt
The king himself confronted the deadly trio.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE5J3Detm9
“King Tuffle, about time you come to your senses.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS6CDwMdKN
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgdX1egJ2N
“Hand me the device on your eye.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDynO7p8gn
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.

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9npBWkxQ9Y
“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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI74m05OTH
Raditz: “Yes, it's about time I pay him a visit!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBAxsxk9s4
Bulma: “Pass me the wrench, Honey!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx00fy6p61A
Kakarot: “Give me a minute, I'm fixing something up over here.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasot4aRCvD
Kakarot twisted a bolt with the wrench before handing it over.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ023XXoOB2F
Bulma: “Thanks! It's kind of weird seeing you use these tools when you're strong enough to use your bare hands.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtohMsxtYl
Kakarot: “I guess it's just more comfortable this way, it also helps me stop myself from accidentally breaking something.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6ppJ6MK2b
Bulma chuckled.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGIBGW2iGz
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgFnWG4zsP
Kakarot: “It helps me relax, and if you really want to do this, then I'll support you.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsYXOkEy8J
Bulma: “Where did this sweet attitude suddenly come from?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5mvtxTw3R
Beet: “Momm!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun3AjfdZuo
Bulma: “Hold that thought-”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPxJCRIx4g
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLL7BlQAkJ
Bulma: “My husband won't answer to you!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpfFlnrcxz
He rushed outside to inspect the commotion at hand.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF80wcwu8b
Raditz: “There you are, Kakarot. This pesky woman was making this more complicated than it had to be.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFJCsUpaU7
The saiyan stood his ground. He gently pushed his family behind him and confronted the strange visitor.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQdEbVGkFL
Kakarot: “Who are you? And how do you know my name?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIJsjUwA2n
Raditz approached his oblivious sibling.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zxB9rUWJb
Raditz: “There's no reason to be hostile-”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FeyUd9OHq
Kakarot swung his fist towards Raditz's face. The saiyan moved his head out of the way with ease.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAl9Yrw870
Raditz: “You're testing my patience, Kakarot!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbuE01nnZ5
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIEWHo4XPn
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7ijWhjyJf
Kakarot: “Enough!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKD0vLca5o
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrDlHa0QdF
Raditz: “Your attacks are not only slow, but predictable as well. You have the natural talent but you lack the proper training.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnkCBB47V7
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2OYja2hQR
Kakarot: “I couldn't even see him get behind me!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAMCtFWysr
Kakarot wiped blood off of his lip as he struggled to get up off of the ground.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPh5oJWYnqS
Beet: “Sir!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw8sUgl8EN
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Wi8M2CHxC
Bulma: “Beet!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8hloj1ffA
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrUOrX5NNH
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoR67KopG9
Raditz: “Enough! You're stepping far out of your place! Fool!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TApz0SdY9
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfzsBizDUm
Raditz: “You're quite the hot headed bastard, little brother.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ400yr5TAPg
Kakarot: “What? Brother?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxscKQSzwhy
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQGU4yTvTb
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGSD5c6sS8
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhC5gFJ0lBZ
Raditz: “Why do you even care? Those scum tossed you aside when you needed them. Whatever happens to them shouldn't concern you.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaoKsYauKl
Kakarot: “Why are you here? Brother.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8ZaQil68V
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOTyYuQhLq
Kakarot: “Recruit me for what?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwIlgBp6SP
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36D8SDfWHR
Kakarot: “Forgive me, brother, but I can't do it.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwSod2QACB
Raditz: “Huh? Did you not just hear me? He took everything from us! His death must be by our hands!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1AmKXDAWt
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnrnIJJdn2
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBW9Ef8iYMs
Kakarot turned to his wife, awaiting her approval. Bulma looked away and sighed for a moment before speaking up.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuIQPD9GMz
Bulma: “Just no more fighting between you two, got it?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKKDWe1tv6
Raditz: “You have my word.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjHm8D4sie
Beet sat on a chair, pressing some ice against his cheek.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hXb35QFsq
Beet: “You hit really hard uncle!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KQL5fpLuU
He said in a mix of irritation and excitement.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9lDDZCzyv
Raditz: “Hehe, that's saiyan strength for you, brat!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBBJZJLoaN
Beet: “First Sir and now you, everyone is stronger than me! Well, except mom.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43UvszbaDH
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWFoanjxMg
Beet: “Heck yeah!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeZlCDIwxT
Raditz chuckled.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYlGLHK163
Beet: “You've left that plate sitting there for a while now, uncle. Aren't you going to pick it up?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmY9ntKEMke
Raditz: “Why would I do that? Isn't that what your mother is here for?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuUzl43ihe
Beet: “Well, my parents say it's good manners to pick up after yourself once you're done eating.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyaL23VMuJ
Raditz: “You earthlings have bizarre customs.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHO6HPDA2e
Bulma: “Beet! It's bed time, you got school tomorrow!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4AC3QKNO3
Beet: “But mom! It's still early, I wanna talk to uncle Raditz!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnjZrU97GD
Bulma: “I said get to bed! Now!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvpO049PwI
Beet: “Sorry uncle, I gotta go.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQNzwnCZ1W
Raditz: “Don't sweat it, kid, listen to your mother.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gHzj4rmkC
Beet marched into his room. Bulma pulled Kakarot close to her, speaking to him in a soft voice.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9OzHo1N1W
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORErl6DEQx
Kakarot: “I’ll be fine, you go rest.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMbfheB1Oy
They shared a kiss before parting ways. Kakarot approached his brother. They sat together in the living room, sharing an awkward silence.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IqOqJY5Ao
Raditz: ‘I see you got yourself a tough woman, little brother. Hehe, just how us saiyans like em!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmh9ZHpXmzB
Kakarot: “That explains a lot..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwThINhFF2
Raditz took a deep breath.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4JbOrY1tY
Raditz: “Follow me outside, little brother.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztFJGjBei7
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WE6RNPptp
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVEruDtIdr
Kakarot looked down at his fist in shame.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjHB3R9W4i
Raditz: “You feel it don't you, a calling greater than this piss poor excuse of a life you live.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbPffh7K8a
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgAnSW9fml
Raditz: “That's your saiyan spirit, your saiyan pride! Take advantage of it, it's your greatest weapon.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvw13tY0mS
Kakarot looked out into the starry, night sky.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLc6pwgKYD
Kakarot: “How many of us are left out there?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nfI438TL8
Raditz: “Including you and I, there's four.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrPQpZhtQG
Kakarot: “By any chance, is one of them our father?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6MBRVZpxw
Raditz: “I'm afraid not.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksbhnJK78B
Kakarot: “Did you know him?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DvHG3jNAD
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cJbs3keBI
Kakarot: ‘Yeah… Maybe I do.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr1Gs0g7Ut
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIqRnMrQON
Kakarot: “The prince?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBNvSJSCQH
Raditz: ‘I'll fill you in tomorrow, go rest, we have a long day ahead of us.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPEUKpS8mM
They descended from the sky and retreated back inside to sleep. The day couldn't have come sooner as Raditz prepared to depart.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtavPmLcNCi
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsgbtR4GPG
Kakarot: “You don't understand, this is my fight. That tyrant has to pay for what he did to my people.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9cSNZhrrm
Bulma: “They're not your people! They're colonizers! You're not like them!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTY1wi5eEJ
Kakarot: “….”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZl4iHQVNH
Bulma: “We're your people! Beet, me, our friends from the city!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oLZ2Z5qfP
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9PRromklz
Bulma hesitated to reply.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MJXZ2cjWb
Kakarot: “Please, let me have this. I wanted a greater purpose, and I feel like this is it. I promise I'll return safely.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMq9g15itB
Bulma: “Please, be careful, Kakarot.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSD7W7j881
The pair shared a quick kiss before separating. Beet rushed to his father.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSF8eLV5iq
Beet: “Sir!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymwF9GIbB3
He came face to face with his father.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWXgdxW5aO
Beet: ‘Sir, please be back soon. I'll miss you.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFguGaFKXFL
Kakarot gently patted his son's head and crouched to face him directly.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsml2au5ClS
Kakarot: “I'll be back before you know it, listen to your mother and look after her for me, okay?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmwFjNYBdF
Beet: “Yes! Sir.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFDa0oNEm1
Kakarot retreated back to his brother.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN3VklZGsS
Raditz: “Are you ready?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMffFPZ3mk
Kakarot: “Yeah, take me to the others.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqw1zSiAer
Raditz: “It was a pleasure meeting you all, I'll bring him back in one piece haha!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZABlk3zzy
The brothers entered their pods, taking off into the vast space. Raditz communicated with his brother through a radio device within their pods.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1lI779lcs
Raditz: “It's more comfortable than it looks huh?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDz7VVp4U4e
Kakarot: “Definitely. Tell me, brother, what are the others like?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2j1lyFU2vD
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLfziyC81h
Kakarot: “They sound amazing.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIxmOEbXYV
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.’
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcLOqX5cZ7
Kakarot: “I can't deny, I am a bit excited.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUpLFtu47n
Raditz: “That's the spirit!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqIo9hqzTV
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHclBfiPdGJ
Kakarot: “You must be the prince, it's an honor to meet you.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocxFI9Lt96
Vegeta: “You knew me before I even got to introduce myself, quite bizarre.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqqAdYgf4E
Kakarot: “I guess the introduction was unnecessary, from just taking a look at you, I sensed it.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqdf4NdRmH
The prince glanced at the humble warrior, before kicking his face, landing him flat on his back.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyR4PH5HV8b
Vegeta: “Stand up, boy. We're all warriors, are we not? Have some pride, don't ever lower your head to no one!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAapBiGuqb
Nappa: “Looks like the rookie is off to a bad start! Haha!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB0ltKKhth
Kakarot rubbed his face, he was confused for a brief moment but soon understood the prince's intentions and abided to his command.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UwVMV64xH
Vegeta: “Follow us, we'll fill you in inside the… battle station.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUShs9lluuZ
The prince hesitated.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiGZlRZjbz
Vegeta: “Remind me again why we went with that name?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMc1pNmiXi
Nappa: “Haha, you see Raditz, I told you “Court Room” would've sounded much better!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6jjmnCkjv
Raditz: “Oh shut up you bald freak! Battle station is a fitting name!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDzbjNfdtE
Nappa: “Hey now! Don't come for my looks! Your freakishly long hair would make anyone want to go bald!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbhcnqt80Z
Vegeta: “Pipe down boys, save that energy for the sparring session.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKi5wmxOXRH
Kakarot nudged his brother's shoulder. Raditz turned to his brother.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLdQXN16Of
Kakarot: “When I was at war with the earthlings, my wife and I referred to our base as the “Battle Station.”’
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDupUhobbNi
He quietly mentioned. Raditz smirked.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAyWwmCefp
Raditz: “I knew you'd understand!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6sVZAPI85
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIcI074Vlj
Vegeta: “I'm sure Raditz already let you in on some of the details, correct?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8tUUpdllp
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0FB93BKHK
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEenKfSvVW
Kakarot: “Understood. So, where do we begin?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcJJSHpdVV
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqOiOyLPfu
Kakarot: “If they don't submit, what happens then?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrog5JcOrjF
Nappa: “What is this weirdo babbling about? We kill them of course!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZtrfUpUp1
Kakarot: “Is it.. really necessary?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJqwdWvyNu
Nappa: “You can't be serious!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DLlIMBbNm
Vegeta: “Raditz, may I speak with you, in private?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCquhZqAlE
Raditz: “Yes, prince.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aGaYncvXs
The two stepped out for a moment, leaving everyone else in suspense.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK77ZrSC2fc
Nappa: “Looks like someone's in trouble haha!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxTMgUDuKC
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRkWvd3s31
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0ECA7exm5
Vegeta: “As you wish. I trust you won't let me down.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6xMSRVwG3
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQmmQe9sb7
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS61KotN3P
The group retreated from their meeting room and headed outside. Kakarot caught up to his older brother and spoke with a troubled tone.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzIqRZ0X3N
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsNOYc8Llv
Raditz: “I'm sure you had to get your hands dirty to conquer your world. Why is this any different?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdjYKwsl1L
Kakarot: “I fought for my freedom, not for meaningless violence!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgH7BLPTPWR
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQT8uZliiV
Kakarot: “Well, it makes sense when you put it that way.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjxvjY53aL
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZof1rHjoxv
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5Yug2zXZd
Kakarot: “Now that you mention it, I can't contain the excitement. I heard Vegeta mention something about sparring.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWP1e8WNOI
Raditz: “Oh yes, we have a special room for sparring.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7kA3gflBz
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFho7GjY918
Raditz: “I see, well, we can spare a few minutes before we depart from this planet. Let's get it on!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMdr4K60pQ
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4siZyPabk
Powerful shock waves swept surrounding rubble into the air. A few more shockwaves shook the area before Kakarot came tumbling to the ground.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92NbEHtIdM
Raditz: “You're improving faster than I imagined.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR59To70UTu
Kakarot: “Hmph, I can't say it doesn't bother me that you have to hold back just for me to keep up.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV6NbRnFOJ
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8IuG9ghew
Kakarot: “What do you have in mind?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSvl6uxoTS
Raditz: “Watch and learn, baby bro!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmz9NWb3o6
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkya73Ei9AB
Kakarot: “What was that?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD8Jat8PLe
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1UTkifr5o
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx5bXkl0fb
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMxB3msyfq
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmrgmP2ryR
Raditz: “You're quite odd for a saiyan if I'm being honest.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVyP1g81hh
Kakarot: “I guess I just feel like I owe it to them after everything we've been through.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TakWe5dZN
Raditz: “I'm starting to feel like this dream of peace of yours isn't living up to the expectations you had in mind.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAa65zyLuQ
Kakarot: “You know, I really thought coming here with you guys would have cured this sensation, but I still can't shake the feeling.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBMv8zc3mF
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnAKrnyf3r
Kakarot: “If you say so..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXE48RRrjg
“Raditz, Kakarot.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUdlE8CuVy
A voice called out from the scouter on Raditz's eye.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxkhhFtRGR
Raditz: “Vegeta, we're on our way! Kakarot, it's time to go.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLejLGUPyTe
Kakarot nodded and followed his brother. They headed to their pods, where the other two saiyans awaited next to their own.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOHijoAsMc
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSdC17gBpw
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCryFUkbhGA
Vegeta: “What the hell? Did the Tuffles lie to us?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCEdb9FAm9
Nappa wiped sweat off of his head.

Nappa: “The heat over here is unbearable! It's if we were directly in the sun!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BwAvmEGVD
Raditz: “Those schemers must've planned this to buy some time for some counter plan!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlw8sn2D5y
Kakarot examined the ground. A few pebbles and some rubble trembled off the ground. He felt a subtle shake.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg55KP5MG4m
Kakarot: “Something's coming from beneath us!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkJlYwuqte
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.

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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwWjn6huPL
The creatures remained in a suspended animation-like state. Vegeta's eyebrow twitched in irritation.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEf7yPi7ZB
Vegeta: “These incompetent fools are mocking us!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03rjwBTiXq
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVjtnBXueA
“Your foot is on my tail!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAwdchVHiW
“Your tail shouldn't be there then!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLACdcZRmfo
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp03n48qQih
Raditz: “These numbskulls are nothing but barbaric creatures that give into their primal urges. They're useless to us!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJqldY1mBw
Vegeta: “Hmph.. Well, not entirely. Kakarot!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbPr0QG7Hd
Kakarot: “Yes, Vegeta?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUB97vjLh6a
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAfitBGk6o
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtIJxkAUS5
Raditz: “What? Got cold feet all of a sudden?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfg3VcP1Tg
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVH76ARmrv
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlv0unnXnz2
Kakarot couldn't dare to face his brother in the eyes. The guilt he felt knowing Raditz was right was overwhelming.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALh9HZDuD9
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkLA8Q4pag
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbolqGpEI1
Vegeta: “You're starting to seem like a real saiyan. Don't get too cocky though, always watch your blind spot.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1rcQI9HFJ
Kakarot smiled.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnepxZSybVm
Kakarot: “Understood!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKZz6tBmo0
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTerkjUwphk
Vegeta: “What the hell?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYkVmgZsSo
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡholOzT8SLr
Nappa: “Could that be, Amaterazu?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYngYPXaYHY
“I am Modora! The most powerful of the Tatsu race! No one wreaks havoc upon MY planet without getting through me!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysxUVgC75f
Raditz: “Looks like we got ourselves an even larger hot head. He won't do us any better than the rest.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwmgiKPAji
Kakarot: “I'll fight him!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eBw6efwWa
Everyone turned to Kakarot in surprise.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OOaefc6Zo
Kakarot: “I'm not done fighting! He'll be MY opponent!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2G2f2SoIx

Modora: “You'll be my first victim then, give me your worst!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkCaeC1wmF
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fPS6nLo1z
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡladk1oqRpD

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmen9rPTpD2

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEjOhmfBLD
Nappa: “Poor runt, his first big shot is against someone out of his league, hehe, what a shame.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8SyrIoY6P
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzedcYR04x
Kakarot: “Come on now, don't back down so soon!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufm5iTD04X
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.

Nappa: “That's nonsense! Let me see.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0T0InmrCvk
The elite's scouter scanned the low class warrior, revealing the shocking revelation that his power had shot up drastically.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEEHsUc2ka
Vegeta: “It looks like he's putting on quite the spectacle.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CNqqkjpFf
Raditz watched in disbelief. He questioned the situation, pondering about it in his mind.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDETDWwbia
Raditz: “He's not just getting stronger, he's improving too. He never demonstrated this level of proficiency before!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtp1CVSMUd
Modora huffed, taking a moment to catch his breath. Kakarot used the opportunity to catch a break as well.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgfeN2kSIh
Modora: “All that and you still can't finish me, I think it's about time I bury you!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaBxrEnlIO
Kakarot: “So it's come to this point at last. I've been anticipating this moment!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorGkUlnJkh
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVBDcfrFQM
Kakarot: “This will be your funeral!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9A622gfBLZ
Modora lowered his hand, shooting down a burst of fire.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIF2AIUs6dt
Modora: “Deadly incineration!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvm77ZU6fj
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsx0eTJgPh
Raditz: “You sly little bastard, looks like you came up with your own move.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9yjYWTqlQ

Raditz: “Your body has already begun its recovery process so soon, that's odd.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXO9yCwdT2
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllNMUMtfTi
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8aFsLXgFP

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRabsoc4Qry
Kakarot: “Huh?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T1nXHIYrF
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXh4UFYNbj
Raditz: “Why you!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoh6eJuhmm
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cYHaVc9Av
Raditz: “Kakarot! Answer me!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv8hD0GWID

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBvOS7W7UR

Raditz: “Pipe down little man, you're fine. It's a common occurrence with us.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS00EVj18Kx
Raditz remained composed but his thoughts quickly ate away at him.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gU662oafJ
“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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fqbe5zvDz
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaDCFFQLr8
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBfuiir82o
Raditz: “I'm positive.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZsjkEslbd
Doctor: “Well, it looks like his body has recovered enough to dismiss any urgent treatment.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXo0WgvopC
Raditz: “I see, that's all then I guess. I'll be making my way out. Make sure he gets everything he needs.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGgGMZsnM5
Doctor: “I will sir.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKQyaKaQHn
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneOgL43Qcg
Raditz: “You're awake, it's about damn time.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuVzhHEHLv
Kakarot: “Brother, what happened? I remember defeating Modora and then suddenly I just.. blacked out.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtj3GpN2s2

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcjNqVceVr

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh25Db8xj0C
Raditz: “That's what's got me confused too.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjERxofuEFz
Kakarot: “Well, there's no point in breaking our heads over it. Shouldn't this be great? Soon I'll get to join your ranks, we'll fight together as equals!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7X27TQAnO5
Raditz: “Haha! Don't get too ahead of yourself now, you still need more to catch up to me.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0Hfd0N3Jv
Kakarot: “When is our next crusade?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrNHlPqMZw
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBssDzOzoL
Kakarot: “If that's the case…perhaps we could stay on earth, don't you think? It could make the perfect base!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHoFdxrRZl
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrrvQ3bZ4Q
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13uH7g5NSy
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtBr2L9kDN
Kakarot: “Are you saying you never loved a woman?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkG0HkhF6F
Raditz: “Of course not! Saiyans are born for so much more than that, we only mate to breed more warriors. I couldn't care less what happens after that.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5VWohhSc9
Kakarot: “It seems I still have a lot to learn about our traditions huh?”

Kakarot: “We'll be fine, I'll make sure of it.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lka0dIzp5

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jD6TSa6jz

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLscZuueVK

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnR6aDfjKm

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNKDn4XSNV
Kakarot turned away to face the door.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15HKPBiD5X
Kakarot: “You know I'll always keep you guys safe, but I'm done rejecting my wishes, my calling.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPVgZsetlY
He walked out without looking back or showing any interest in doing so.

Kakaort: “Come with me, let me introduce you to the others.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGP53lVQ8EN
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPeb78iBkX
Beet: “Sir! What's going on over there?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmidGJdh7X
Kakarot: “It's… renovation. Our new family is settling in. It will all be fine when it's over okay?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk6uMkYrEP
Beet: “But they look scared, Sir.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1Cki2uc6f
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lRQZOwujc
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwn8wiEOSGx
Raditz: “Kakarot, we've been waiting for a cool minute now!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqkHEWudiV
Kakarot: ‘My apologies, I had some other business to attend to. As you all requested, I've brought my boy. Beet, these are the last remaining saiyans. They're like you and I, you'll learn a lot from them as I have.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAD59vk0zYW

Vegeta: “So, you're the son of Kakarot. He was conceived with an earth woman, am I right?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡms0WfHWVQa
Kakarot: “Yes, that's right. That would make him a half blooded saiyan if I'm not mistaken.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRIlxzwdHy
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: “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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2itvQSrtO
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince, but I'm not entirely sure if I'm okay with using my nephew as an experiment…”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScqoyt2h28
Vegeta: “Don't tell me your brother's earthling values are rubbing off on you, Raditz.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7wlgONg7q
Raditz: “No. Of course not..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyQIslhDXl
Vegeta: “Then do as I say, prove to me you're deserving of the position I've been offering you.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Vhsnr7Eie
Raditz: “I will..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIHraWTIct
Raditz turned to his comrades.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPCEqaSM4G
Raditz: “I will be taking Beet into the battle chamber. You're all excused to leave.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmXRtIO2eI
Kakarot: “Hold on! I can't just let you take my son without me!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphntALZJk0
Vegeta: “Calm down, boy. This is the reason I asked to meet him. Besides, it's in our tradition to not question our superiors.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRGrf3Xxdq
Raditz put his hand on his brother's shoulder.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69Rsw5moVh
Raditz: “He'll be okay, think of it as special training.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFkadT5cBo
Kakarot hesitantly nodded.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YusktmeZy
Kakarot: “Go with your uncle, Beet. Have fun, okay?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldhj2gcWlZ
Beet: “I will, Sir!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrf0gylU33e
Kakarot: “I'll be outside.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeot3qPmFq
Beet: “Okay!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAlM2qYhkO
Raditz: “C'mon now, let's go.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAYUURJhRZ
Beet followed his uncle into the training room.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIdojUMnBZ
Raditz: “That's pathetic! You can do better than that!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5L8Cgwf7MP
Beet forced his legs up. He wiped blood off of his lips.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXSxWmoiie
Beet: “I'm going to be strong, like you and Sir!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOX6GG1LP3
The boy lunged himself forward, giving his uncle everything he had. Raditz smacked him away with a backhand.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJGdW52AKU
Raditz: “You're nothing but a runt, you'll never be like your father.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhB2xBnBpav
Beet: “Th-That's! …Not trueeee!!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v2RX7nPBN
Beep! Beep! Beep!!
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUVoF1rN74
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV05qenfVf6
Raditz: “That's… Impossible!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBQhuHi72M
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf63sseyKdW
Raditz: “That's enough, pipsqueak. I'll take you back to your father alright?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjlq4I0nxI
Beet: “O-Okay.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnNtOiyD5L
Beet collapsed to the ground. Raditz lifted his nephew and returned him to his father.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbRZv2aKZR
Kakarot: “What happened?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqXWkg4xf4
Raditz: “The boy is fine. Head home Kakarot, take the day off.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBkLz8h7tK
Kakarot: “What about the settlement? Won't you guys need my assistance? I know this place better than you all.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2X5TmQUNw
Raditz: “We can take it from here, just go.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUsLIbNHZD
Kakarot: “Fine.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMPkqDznGf
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNugyVnKsUM
“What could he want with that boy? Should I tell Kakarot?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5I4Kkp6Kj
He snapped out of his head upon reaching the Prince.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZXzNn1mD2
Raditz: “Vegeta, I've gotten a proper measure of his strength.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWV4zZhznZ
Vegeta: “What did the scouter say?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQyXZWRIP8
Raditz: “It… It exceeded 10,000..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYRwPdsZXi
Vegeta: “It looks like my suspicions were correct after all.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktf9scnw8c
Raditz: ‘What's going on? I don't understand what you're getting out of all this!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqgB5U7YFB
Vegeta: “You know it's not tradition to question me, Raditz.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykIcUpxmn7
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeEN05mBzH
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFFRokK9Fd
Raditz: “I swear on everything, I'll remain loyal to you and only you!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68CxgHjPjg
Vegeta: “Good. Keep the following between us then. I had a slight suspicion that the hybrid could actually be STRONGER than a full blood.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZziOrzfB8C
Raditz: “But how is that even possible? With such weak genetics, wouldn't it only bring a saiyan down?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmQxWQdKfr
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtytQn37Zev
Raditz: “You mislead the rest to save your reputation then?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cTbcZNN39
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxckdkWy0s3
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqw3kaXRYr3
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkoElGsZbJ
Raditz: “Understood.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0O3yv0zuM
Vegeta: “You're dismissed.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLSEeWQ9IO
Raditz departed from the room.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAPtjgi43r
“Haaaa”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVQM8F5rv9
An explosion erupted. A warrior with battle armor and a spear went flying from the impact. He slammed to the ground and laid unconscious.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrGjSOYs0q
Raditz: “Nice one, brother! Don't forget what I taught you.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGFNPevmFe
Kakarot: “Right.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrme0kUfJQC
Kakarot lifted the defeated warrior from his head and blasted a hole through his chest with an energy attack.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEslmjdwoM
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent. I won't make that same mistake again.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwdxtAHzr5
Raditz: “As it should be! Glory comes from victory and victory isn't certain until your opponent is eliminated permanently!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOjfhjRAeL
Kakarot: “A lot of talking, brother! Let's get back to fighting!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ECWXpjEan
Raditz: “Hehe, you rascal.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwX75mGerR
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4irclQCDb
Kakarot: “Bulma, I'm home. Prepare me a nice meal, why don't you?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFx4RghniHn
Bulma: “I made some miso soup earlier, enjoy the leftovers.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDd3PS1FkfI
Kakarot: “What's with the attitude?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDftUXsQusE
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE8B7z9IYu
Kakarot: “We're not having the conversation again!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Dv8c5o4Xp
Bulma: “We'll have it as many times as we need to until you get your act right!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcwRxcjyo9
Kakarot stared at her in silence. Beet entered the room, returning from outside. He instantly caught on to the tension between his parents.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDu8SSbyQp
Beet: “Is everything okay?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAKLbmIN5P
Kakarot: “Yeah, we're all good.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOzWvXvTEt
He replied, still staring at his clearly upset wife.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSluFGva6r
Beet: “I'm not dumb! I know you guys are fighting again! Why? Why can't you guys just get along like before?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7j8HZ7qbj7
Bulma: “Sweetie, we aren't fi-”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoaAuUGyCL
Beet: “You're lying! Stop lying! I miss you, Sir, stay home today, please?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rzok9hcIK
Kakarot frowned before nodding his head.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhl8LYYo50
Kakarot: “Fine. Fine, I'll spend the night, okay?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZedfGz79Y
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirwbsgUSG8
Bulma: “You just couldn't help yourself, huh?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gpQK6IQDK
Kakarot turned around.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l3FPI9Nog
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQGAXFhfhN
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzXIApaH4s
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbRXmoUXrJ
Kakarot: “I couldn't possibly forget.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfml1Byuwjs
Bulma: “We looked out for each other ever since. We loved each other! Where did that go?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqHcxhM3j3
Kakarot remained silent. He simply frowned.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLn5gPRfyh
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuv1DSCIOp7
Kakarot: “Hmph… I've recently been wondering why I still bother to stop by here myself.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19RKqlBcTc
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb4snDz7ac
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaIoS1q1Pv
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7V49FJEavD
Colonel: “Yes? Prince?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1R2myvwgv4
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWP3JxtEvna
Colonel: “Understood…Sir.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OkqAiFseq
Kakarot tapped his brother's shoulder.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLSUFaS61v
Kakarot: “Are you excited? Brother?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2sxSbYBGP
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzFkoFLgjx
Kakarot: “Right!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYC4wqqyaW
Vegeta: “Kakarot.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzixQtqoMdd
Kakarot: “Yes?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5APXZtxF5
Vegeta: “You'll be with Nappa and I.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOr7AzUGnaq
Kakarot: “Oh, w-wow! It is an honor, Prince Vegeta!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa38rtJIPG
Raditz: “Huh? But you said I'd take that role!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjsRQZYWrx
Vegeta: “Kakarot surpassed you a while ago, I'm not taking risks with an inferior saiyan.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIREd7LgBmH
Raditz clenched his fists. He gave his brother a spiteful glare before taking a few breaths.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahMFxQSfSf
Raditz: “As you wish, Prince. I'll take Kakarot's task.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYRgbhMk0o
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjprIbmyQpx
Raditz: “I'll see you all later.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3V3JY5aoYi
Kakarot: “Raditz!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAptJWf0hkO
Raditz turned to his brother.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdNfdvDDpB
Kakarot: “Be careful.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbU9MTEuZD
Raditz: “Right..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDGpSww7N6
Raditz took off with his pod.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ550GoVMwMQ
“Someone is entering the atmosphere!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazjXkVaJvN
“Let me take a look.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjikofjJqLd
Beep! Beep! Beep!
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YgdGrfyYK
“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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiOBFoUQZg
Zarbon approached the landing vehicle. The pod met its destination and out came Raditz from inside.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe04ZbdW385
Raditz: “Greetings, Zarbon.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbqmRBBTpy
He bowed in respect.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwKnDm99wt
Zarbon: “At least you know your place.. State your business, saiyan!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIfGHuVrDI
Raditz: “The prince would like to speak with the lord.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KvS41OUc7
Zarbon: “You know he can't come barging in on such short notice! Especially since our lord is quite busy right now.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghs3wW350U
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcjSzftrkC
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UBcssM3Xo
Raditz: “As you wish.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl9WHqDnly
Zarbon signaled for him to stand and follow his lead.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgio9UqoCL0
Nappa: “So once he gives the signal, we make our move?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPS1HfGX9G
Vegeta: “Precisely.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlpwSBT8Iq
Nappa: “What exactly is the signal?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm9Hf6YLOY
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OeM8XcexR
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJ4GQevsAP
Zarbon took his leave.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3gXaOPvS3
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFibS1rRDES
Raditz sat patiently, noticing one of the guards peeping at him. He turned his gaze to the guards direction.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCskxyIqJJT
Raditz: “Ya got a problem? Fool!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWX5mA6gwTS
Guard: “You won't be this bold when Lord Frieza arrives!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jArkrwdJJ
Raditz chuckled.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWJWLATLD2
Raditz: “Yeah. We'll see.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ACKbXJEhx
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5yqJCbRMl
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU72Zfj6tO
Beep! Beep! Beep!
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVD8NnJM4T
Raditz: “He's here…”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVnnMtuZnb
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KVAyHwzGj
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBFX6BRUjQ
Vegeta: “It's time! Let's end this!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdmDmNGbJu
The saiyans commenced their transformation as their ship rapidly approached the planet's atmosphere.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcATqnGUN00
Zarbon: “I warned you, saiyan!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDIvgJEbBq
Raditz: “It's too late now, pretty boy! Frieza is finished!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptiXBHbwhs
Dodoria entered the room with a sinister laugh. Raditz’s eyes widened, he felt his soul leave his body for a moment.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kcKx1rdCc
Dodoria: “Surprised to see me?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOlVC5msGJ
Raditz: “N-No! This can't be!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkzpR9POgl
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8i00PSDrmL
Vegeta: “Hehe.. That fool never saw it coming!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDJT3HOiH7
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsqQHUC1AQ
Vegeta: “Here lies the foolish emper- What?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx06gQJoBax
Vegeta desperately searched through the remains.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElZgYEgApf
Nappa: “What's wrong? Vegeta?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV14Z78Jdaf
Vegeta: “This ship… I-It's a decoy!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgbSzPSaGs
Kakarot: “What! That means-”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfL7Y7vUQwh
“Quite the bold attempt I must say. You know, I knew you'd turn on me one day, Vegeta.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBHAMAZzV1
Vegeta: “Frieza!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCYu2OApYJ
Dodoria: “Looks like your little plan didn't go out as you expected!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3GTnCTGAl
Raditz: “Damn it!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnA4WY2N4qu
Zarbon: “Do us all a favor and don't resist. You know it'll only end up being futile in the end.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdDzHvY7Rw
Raditz: “I guess I don't got a choice huh?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79tqvX6F1N
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTL4Rnw6pqE
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3YyQQF3Bf
Vegeta: “No! It's not over! Not yet! We'll just have to destroy you the old fashioned way.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7Q7unwFgL
Frieza: “I'd love to see how that plays out.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUekiTgSVu3
Dodoria: “Rrraaaaa!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XtrKyvC8P
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJbwWSj57D
Raditz: “Eat this! Weekend!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCC1WeqvWn
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3FGFEB1Vk
Dodoria: “What the hell? How did he get so powerful? Something must be wrong!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdFZFz22wW
Zarbon: “Let me check the scouter.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8sjFNn6fv
Beep! Beep! Beep!
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQXA5zBwgR
Zarbon: “N-No way!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rphYqhJc2
Dodoria: “What is it?”

Zarbon: “His power level is 35,000!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ArxeUidIy
Dodoria: “But Raditz has always been a weakling! How is that possible?!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7glTl5mGd
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WrSGzdmT7
Dodoria: “Oh great, first I get showed up by some low class saiyan, and now I have to work with you. Just my luck.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPSuXtwW4Z
Zarbon: “I'm not so thrilled to fight alongside someone as repulsing as you either.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFg0oFemze
Dodoria: “Whatever, let's get this over with!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWzUBejrou
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.

Raditz: “I can't take them both like this. I have to get rid of one of them first.”

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNr3Rrpdh5
Dodoria: “Why you!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2mcJmpwZZ
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZDGcfpeQD
Raditz: “Got somethin in your eyes?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoCeCJFO1U
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx526jW9SB2
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!”

Frieza: “Ho! Ho! Ho! Give it your best shot, monkey.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxEmnW3zbc
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsh7aKBSVc
Frieza: “Haaa!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdNbL5GZCw
The tyrant blew away his surroundings with his explosive power, relieving himself from Vegeta's pressure.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeJpdQo9UX
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYV69e3ds6
Vegeta: “So you concede to my might?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhD4KixW2JR

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLI5c7lw5kG
Raditz: “Ggaaahhh!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDNas5neOP
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.

Zarbon: “Haha! You're starting to wear out, saiyan!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdthA7v2oX7

Raditz detonated a ki blast in front of the 2 of them, creating a blinding smoke cloud. He ascended higher into the air.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7xbeem1aw
Raditz: “Scatter Shot!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOYvPnC6Tx
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.

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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC2CGBC8Ya

Vegeta: “You've had a power up like this all along, and we never knew…”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwzkS39rml
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRaAxaY5Jn
Kakarot: “Vegeta! We can't cave into the pressure! We must see this till the very end!”

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScd1l4MjhU
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmtBKPgTCK
Raditz: “Frieza's off guard, this is our chance!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEwUDfil0j
He charged an attack with all of his might and shot a blast from his mouth towards the tyrant.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkcWj5Rem2

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGolBkHEuVV

Frieza: “There's no point in playing around, I can't risk it with these monkeys! I have to use my final form!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLUbxKklla
Frieza stood and chuckled. His irritation faded away, shifting into a sinister smile.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GI2e6VkLU
Frieza: “I'll spare you the suspense. I guess I must reveal my truest form off the bat!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88zuIGE0AC
Kakarot: “Not again!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8vvXFIswC
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfV0OGmyah
Vegeta: “Quick! We must turn into great apes while we still have the chance!”

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsF4UPGD7U2
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXLwOtBPdI
Kakarot: “Look out!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaINspQXNgf
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.

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu32TM4nqZI
Frieza: “What? Were you all left petrified by my power?”

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GIVcvU0KY
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37jjw81B2s
Frieza: “Done playing around yet? Vegeta?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32MDCAaBBn
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOaKKfYWoR
Raditz: “Double Sunday!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSUWW6lTfF
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmd8wreSzMp
Raditz: “I-I can't move!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbOxWqMXCH

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5MoT575jA
Frieza: “You again!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpHrR4sKqM
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pHQw7NZX1
Frieza: “You actually made me raise my guard. Interesting.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpXi32qtJP
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWUrvfr5pi
Frieza: “What? I don't understand! There's something different about you!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpdYsv1BXT
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCDQ9yjjrI
Frieza: “You dare lay your hands on me!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK2NQG5jQO
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAogpJFLvV
Frieza: “This isn't right! I broke you! I felt it in every attack! You shouldn't even be standing!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAvoDYXZ96
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND9vycnjpS
Raditz: “Is that really him?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAskzyqV6cN
Kakarot: “F-Friezaaaa!!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOBzrS2oiE
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Xigai5YAK
Frieza: “No! No!! You're… the super saiyan! There's no other explanation for this!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1xBNsfWyE
Raditz poked a button on his scouter.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ01sOgBpr2
Raditz: “Vegeta! Is what I'm hearing true? Has Kakarot truly become a super saiyan?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzruZvY9ILH
Vegeta was snapped out of a trance.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBkfyj9VaO
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjma4B8JMr
Raditz: “But how does that even happen?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDA316iapj7
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMk3OwdcgY
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxsYa7XGiW
Frieza: “I'll just have to wipe you out along with this planet!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ223tw0cFnr
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTDO1D9Jhk
Vegeta: “Galick Gun…Fire!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwxqJ6LmsF
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51fNabaJPZ
Frieza: “You've asked for it! This is my full power!! Haaa!!”

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cQdYUo1p6

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlvSa51qvA
A projectile darted to Frieza's head, slightly discombobulating him.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyNwnjcwOE

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVYYg7IYi6
“Haaaaaa!!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMudij4Zy9
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.

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4lwORRMNO
Kakarot rushed to his brother, preparing to follow up his beat down. Raditz caught his balance and leaped into the air, escaping him momentarily.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKATnc2qld
Raditz: “Kakarot! It's me! Raditz! I know you're in there!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDV7Albujw

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDIzhh8zEX
Raditz: “K-Kakarot… Don't do this! Your boy, your woman! They're waiting for you back home! P-Please Kakarot! It's me, your brother!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXOx7rS7CS
Kakarot's grip loosened but he continued to hold his brother in a lethal position.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ670KHAbvge
Raditz: “Fight for your consciousness, brother! You can overcome your overwhelming power and make it yours!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iwYjg4dbn

461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu9F6Q3hPp
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzVzPupQUy
Frieza: “You… That look… It's starting to seem familiar..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB2UfT0lYu

Kakarot: “My name.. is Kakarot! And in the name of the saiyan race, I'm going to send you straight to hell!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z11YOpjdn
Kakarot finished Frieza with a blast that disintegrated every last remnant of him.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LNlRYAocW
Kakarot: “It's done…”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMD74D2cw88
Raditz: “He he he, Ha! Ha! Ha! We've won!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPvMxgkyCd
Vegeta ascended into the air.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeiR8t2OYU
Vegeta: “Everyone! Listen up! Frieza is dead! Head back to the ship! I'll finish the rest!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJz1sFPOuw
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwV4Tajms5
Colonel: “Prince Vegeta! What about the survivors? I thought the plan was to end every last one!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod613Gjszk
Vegeta: “Of course, I've left them a little present.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hAdgdshMP
The remaining soldiers of the Frieza force watched as a small shard of ki sank into the planet.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmC5cozYNn
Vegeta: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziAh3kDQ5r
The planet exploded leaving no trace of its existence behind. The men cheered, the Colonel shook the prince's hand.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcixRsWes0
Colonel: “It has been an honor serving you.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyioiflj4L
Vegeta: “As promised, you'll be with us from now on.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbzvHjrpJr
Colonel: “And the rest of the Tuffles?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSHLiLAKmQ
Vegeta: “I have a purpose in mind for those inferior people.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKreRr9DCf5
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyDL9OzqV4
Kakarot: “That power I felt earlier, I don't understand it, brother. Normally these experiences are exhilarating, but this, it was maddening, terrifying even.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRrM519dsl
Raditz: “I don't quite understand it either, but that power avenged our people. You've fulfilled your destiny, right?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7E12JkXSG
Kakarot: “Yeah… I guess I did.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6smcMSFvh8
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTlxFwTI50
Raditz: “Good day, Prince, how may I be of service to you today?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhFR1sPGNA
Vegeta: “Your brother put on quite the spectacle yesterday, didn't he?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleQH3CgeAH
Raditz: “Yes… He did.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJnAr7MWuQ
Vegeta: “It doesn't take a genius to realize he's left us both behind.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c4DEnn5Z1
Raditz: “Yeah, it is quite apparent.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCuo6XHJwd
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAjrYR3f6S
Raditz: “What are you suggesting? Vegeta?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdg0RGi3el
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFBmmHKl4k
Raditz: “Considering your competition, your threats don't mean much right now. So enlighten me, why is that path doomed for failure?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoS1XrfXqF
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh2YNRy7Si
Raditz stared at the floor, lost in his thoughts.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkozA7b3hjD
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeW3oXGAIT
Raditz: “W-What do you propose? Even if I went along with it, we can't stop him.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i9MJbteOH
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVV3R5thEO
Raditz: “I won't fail you, Vegeta. I think I know how to get him off our backs.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMUO6Xitvy
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOunVJxVD4
Kakarot pondered deeply, looking into the dim, cloudy sky.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8iIfiVmt8
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdH3GmiNdq2
He looked at his fist in shame.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdsINyl3dg
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIDxVCQGr8
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg2m4FMELA
A sudden static came from Kakarot's scouter.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhcG6SoaSD
“Bro—-er! You ne—-ed to come! Q—--ck!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxczbendJPN
Kakarot: “Raditz! Is that you!? Raditz! What's wrong?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJF2Ra2Igpa
Raditz: “I— tried to save th—m!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjDiENT0uG
Kakarot: “Where are you?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROZNYIaf7s
Raditz: “Y—our place!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAIXIvTVyp
Kakarot: “I'm on my way!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTT2J8VvzZ3
Kakarot anxiously rushed back to his home. The sky roared as a thunderstorm broke out. Vicious rain drops poured all over the land.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqPXMKUxWP
Kakarot: “Has one of Frieza's loyal followers found our base? He's probably seeking revenge against me!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXnoT20xDb
Kakarot arrived in mere moments. Raditz waited for him outside. Most of Kakarot's home was battered up and crumbling apart.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIUR96ulNg
Kakarot: “Brother! What happened? Where's Bulma and Beet?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8F8Bll2MK
Raditz had a cut on his cheek and some of his armor had been damaged. He took a moment to catch his breath.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgYiYXtwV2
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..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLb4w2Omaf
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFNJxVjTpg
Kakarot: “No…”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO2B6reJPO
Raditz limped behind him, putting his hand on his brother's shoulder.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF82uVpObQp
Raditz: “I'm terribly sorry, Kakarot. I found them like this by the time I arrived. I couldn't save them…”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBq3JaSBHvP
Kakarot: “No, no, no, no…. They should have come after me.. no..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2G92d8dfB
He fell to his knees, and held his son in his arms.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEfUlSxSW4
Kakarot: “B-Beet… I should've been there, to protect you.. both of you.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KmJrbt6bz
Raditz: “It's a real shame… he cried out for his “Daddy” in his last moments you know.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3cut19FcD
Kakarot: “I wasn't there for him..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFQOCNEHlh
Kakarot froze for a moment. His eyes widened.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAELN0sGYC5
Kakarot: “You… You said you found them like this when you got here..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28WnyeGq8b
Raditz: “Let this be my final lesson to you brother. Trust no one.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qNlxLAw7f
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7kMyHEMDO
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qa94JnDCr
Kakarot: “H-How.. c-ccould.. youuu..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTF8ms3CJOr
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRMTBKkqqR
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaDLwyQWcG
Raditz: “It's done, sir.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jZ62Hj4FW
Vegeta: “What did you do?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9j6Bh7JLK
Raditz: “I got rid of him and his boy for good. They will never get in our way again.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxyoa6fRwD
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUXZ6JjfP3
Raditz: “It is an honor.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesHKwfTOE8
Raditz bowed down in respect.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdMLGGNKzi
“Prince Vegeta! Our security has been breached! They're headed your wa-”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzlremtAiJ
The signal was cut off in a violent manner, before they had time to process the warning, something smashed through the entrance.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6QbSGgLse
Kakarot: “Y-You!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWho3NMdEHU
Raditz: “Impossible! He should've succumbed to his wounds!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALPGLnb1ey
Kakarot took heavy breaths and struggled to stand.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnp1TSD7U2
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHv96KkrpjY
Raditz: “Right!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlEdBaUAHN
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMStItdq8pU
Vegeta: “Nappa was a fool that let his emotions cloud his judgment.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HtoAZUXL7
Kakarot: “He was your friend!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSVkDvhkby
Vegeta: “And he paid the price for it.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrk8QTQdMS
Kakarot: “I l-looked up to you guys!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kGFEbdgPt
Tears ran down his face.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWARJuFbGeA
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?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSUIhcPZph
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFlkXbeclO
Kakarot: “Haaaaa!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jU0HBLMiE
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJmDtxXiUp
Raditz: “Vegeta!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9ZEyE0bch
Kakarot rushed Raditz, tackling him to the ground. He pounded his face a few times before grabbing a hold of his neck.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pjfCsLXjn
Kakarot: “Why!? We're brother's! Why would you do this! You meant everything to me!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN06a2217OJ
Raditz smirked.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmE8IdKMTN
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3xWj0ybOt
Kakarot: “So none of this ever really mattered, huh? I should've killed you back in our fight with Frieza!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoL2HqD77jd
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5U5gH2ZHO
Kakarot: “Ha! Ha! Haa!! None of this matters huh? It never did! Nothing does!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXQlGzq3dU
He pounded the ground.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCudXfSVVTr
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8P7Qb330U
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53Dh7OIO8c
Kakarot: “To fight!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLddAtnVL0a
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmjqPabN0f
Raditz: “B-Brother.. You w-wouldn't kill me.. right? I'm…all you have left.. p-please let me make things right..”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNgqatBeU5
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent, remember?”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTkb2OGCtn
Kakarot chuckled and removed his fist. He blasted him away. Raditz's lifeless course collapsed to the ground.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOneY6Kpzp
Vegeta: “Big Bang attack!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpb4xvZyGN
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1e7xx5H4tK
Vegeta: “Gaahh!!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgoXK5PetB
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrAXDcudWY
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4pSFvZRUd
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.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5neaPAEJT
Vegeta: “Wait!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGpJhhHYax
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.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFvZhjKH3P
Kakarot: “After years of exploration and combat, I've finally made the time to gather them all together.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCyWCHHR3I
The seven dragon balls glowed in union before the mighty shenron burst out from within them.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgbc9vywwn
Shenron: “Speak your wish.”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYZQOjRQBr
Kakarot put his hand on a special vehicle he had beside him.
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTRM4fs5zH
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!”
461Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRXSEpZnZi
Shenron: “As you wish."
