Frieza: “I almost feel some guilt having to do this, I'm aware you were one of our more loyal ones, Bardock.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunzc17mKlo
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jGkav75vF
Zarbon: “My lord, shall I dispose of this trash?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt31hviWo3H
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK113uSvp7
Frieza departed from his space pod, heading towards Bardock directly. They came face to face, only a few feet apart.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBF2zpSpOb
Bardock: “Haaaa!!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8CcQmb3F9
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3iJfXAoyu
Frieza: “All your efforts couldn't even leave a mere scratch, but how dare you lay your filthy hands on me!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZFHvf4Coa
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Vvzix5aSj
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6kWgCxeII
A small pod zoomed past them from a considerable distance. Bardock watched it leave and smirked.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjcaOwibWW
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsSc2dwLqW
Frieza: “Well if that's your dying wish, then I shall consider it.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsq3tp7VE9Q
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36ALfpUEeq
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE35BfKS7IR
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5HheYJ0Tq
Frieza: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5yYnczAEu
Bardock: “Go Kakarot…. Be the warrior I never could and show the world who you are!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjIe6QDNWK
Bardock, along with his planet, perished becoming one with the empty, infinite space.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhto45qUsK
“Your alliance has fallen, Commander. Teaming up with the government couldn't save you, you're out of options.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElMWb1L4fZ
Commander Red: “You're..You're a monster!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs5xIpUq5q
“The world brought this upon itself when it decided to turn on me and reject me. This war was all because of you!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMhiqV6Rdg
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDwVNYfSMX
Kakarot crushed the severed head of an android that he held, with his bare hands.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkMftCxKSM
Kakarot: “This world will never throw me aside again! For it now belongs to me! Kakarot!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHfVHfUd6S
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tuOUAQyxh
“Damn it! The signal hasn't returned! Where are you? Kakarot!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAMTM4zdpH
Kakarot gently landed from the air.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquCCwS776i
Kakarot: “Bulma, it's over.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrX8WmewiCL
Bulma rushed towards him and greeted him with a tight hug.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzAgoMn1e4
Bulma: “I thought something had happened to you! Your signal cut off!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1a9TPJIrmt
Kakarot returned the affection before acknowledging her concern.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVP46bAXHw1
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0GKyaBNUT
Bulma looked down and sighed. Her grip on Kakarot loosened. Kakarot frowned, noticing her discomfort.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjlrT5Aous
Kakarot: “What's wrong?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOBLeWyWAc
Bulma: “I'm grateful for our freedom, but don't you wish this all could have been different?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDUtMUKo8y
Kakarot: “I don't understand, what are you referring to?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKuIExiYpS
Bulma: “We destroyed many lives for the better of our own. I'm not sure I'm allowed to celebrate this victory…”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUaZTjsdMo
Kakarot gently pulled her towards him, holding her by her hand.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RsMQGQ6NF
Kakarot: “What matters today is that we get to live in peace. We can have a future together at last.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamCtxX0z39
Bulma: “Yeah.. I guess you're right. The world is our's now, where do we even begin?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhScWzzOSMG
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E8znLr1lg
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfMCGT1Ljv
Kakarot: “Here it is, just as you asked, the largest boar I could find.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9oi0i81Yh
Kakarot put down the carcass of the freshly hunted boar.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQDaQpVwjX
Bulma: “Hey! You're getting blood on the floor! Leave it somewhere else!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTHl9Ezm5P
Kakarot: “Jeez, fine I'll leave it outside in the meantime.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqrX0UVMyf
Bulma shifted her focus back to her personal project she had been working on.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPXTHNTCkz
Kakarot: “You've been cooped up here for a while, what exactly are you making?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxlLcZHw5F
Bulma: “It's a stretch, but have you ever wondered what lies beyond our world? Not just the galaxy but our universe as well.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YqOhvoAhD
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08rKv564dm
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ2XvxqiHD
Kakarot: “So you're building a sort of vehicle I assume? What's that going to do?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUoD72ECaG
Bulma: “You could tell it's a vehicle from this small progress alone?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAururn0J3
Kakarot: “That's clearly an engine, not one from any current technology we have though. Okay..I confess, I occasionally tinker with your stuff.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsmSDbrVAK
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWUPVCpveq
Kakarot: “You're still bent on this..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUElciQ64F
Bulma: “I just can't fathom why it doesn't bother you as much! Don't you feel any remorse for what we did?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTGpZoDDoo
Kakarot: “We did what we had to, I took no joy in it, but it's what had to be done.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LF75CbKWd
Bulma sighed and dropped her head.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8M27oVmAD
Bulma: “I should get to cooking that boar, I could use the break.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNh6QNId2p
Kakarot: “Hm… Where's Beet?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJQZzgNYmU
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpKkQSWfZI
Kakarot: “Looking for a good hunt I bet, I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHCbLuzld9
Beet: “Haaa!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TVVu8HuXF
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpmucdkucq
Beet: “Darn! I should've picked a smaller one to challenge!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllNnsr6M3L
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlk0qjrsuTe
Kakarot: “You've still got a lot to learn boy.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXH0qjVao5
Beet: “You made it just in time sir!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiTyI0zCvI
Kakarot put his son down and faced the dinosaur.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PBxn570BN
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-”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TXcE2KIHQ
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Pl6wkqEC4
Kakarot: “ …..If you take away its tail, it won't have anything left to defend itself with.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9jO5HAF08
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMnUGl8jWA
Kakarot: “Enough”!
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8Fgxz1300
Beet: “Huh?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8jq9oLmxe
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZVEbagMDH
Beet: “But sir, you've let me hunt animals before! What's so different now?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV33HQ0Oi2n
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy7k5o8Ilg
Beet: “I'm sorry, sir.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPzgd3VLcJ
Kakarot: “Don't sweat it, let's head home already, we've got to help your mom prepare.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpKJIBDz42
Beet: “Right!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYabGOydj1
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyYpZkuO0Y
Bulma: “Honey, you're acting strange.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB4AnVZdzI
Kakarot: “I think my stomach is just upset from the boar. Maybe you didn't cook it right.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPg6BrIPJE
Bulma: “Hey! If you're going to be ungrateful then maybe I'll just let you starve next time!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkCkmJHvrB
Kakarot: “Nevermind.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yYsJK6frU
Bulma's irritation dissipated, lowering her tone into a more gentle manner. She reached out and placed her hand on his shoulder.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrGSLAi61A
Bulma: “If something is bothering you, you can always tell me.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJFrfPAYEi
Kakarot: “.... Doesn't this ever get stale to you? A similar routine every single day?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUs7G3GdEV
Bulma: “I get to spend the day with you and Beet, we finally have the peace we always wanted, that's enough for me.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1gslEEczf
Kakarot: “I just think we could be doing more. I could be doing more. Is this really where my life peaks?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKQ4xFuroD
Bulma: “Is it so wrong to simply settle down and enjoy the family you've built?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOWB7CZRhK
Kakarot: “Perhaps helping Beet with his studies is getting to me.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQLYg5f7cd
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPOvZ7A540

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

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEn2NUUbKV9
“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.”

Colonel: “On it, my lord.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg87hovurM
The Colonel clicked on a button on a device he had strapped to his ear. He hesitated to speak before giving his final order.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0COfSsepDw
Colonel: “Stand down boys, it's over..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ns52LOnqG

“King Tuffle, about time you come to your senses.”

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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1lMWML3Zh
“Hand me the device on your eye.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdSqOAdomQ
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.

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmpEbyNcgg

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUj3QRajNU

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT90mkhe2x
Kakarot: “Give me a minute, I'm fixing something up over here.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwIDQMsXZb
Kakarot twisted a bolt with the wrench before handing it over.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3P8FTJ5Yd
Bulma: “Thanks! It's kind of weird seeing you use these tools when you're strong enough to use your bare hands.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPlaeA8cTE
Kakarot: “I guess it's just more comfortable this way, it also helps me stop myself from accidentally breaking something.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwjS8zZofc
Bulma chuckled.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmIiqtnujp
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCJBtgfQ1I
Kakarot: “It helps me relax, and if you really want to do this, then I'll support you.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0O0xfW9E1

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1LxVD8SQr

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPm9PTCmRst
Bulma: “Hold that thought-”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sNdQDOKpV
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPPLPnPjGr
Bulma: “My husband won't answer to you!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9AZ21bV5D
He rushed outside to inspect the commotion at hand.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDPIcLU19W
Raditz: “There you are, Kakarot. This pesky woman was making this more complicated than it had to be.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WHXuI5vrq
The saiyan stood his ground. He gently pushed his family behind him and confronted the strange visitor.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JHX22mrUV
Kakarot: “Who are you? And how do you know my name?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQiWhqN5Ig
Raditz approached his oblivious sibling.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMJtfLcZ8m
Raditz: “There's no reason to be hostile-”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGag78SChSY
Kakarot swung his fist towards Raditz's face. The saiyan moved his head out of the way with ease.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AYJEOhlxo
Raditz: “You're testing my patience, Kakarot!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4JdyxfiIn
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkUFibt62X
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvHD2lM1T8
Kakarot: “Enough!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2nmwfR3da
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0V6nRvAlF
Raditz: “Your attacks are not only slow, but predictable as well. You have the natural talent but you lack the proper training.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBqXDPCJOZ
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZrzOGQGwG
Kakarot: “I couldn't even see him get behind me!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WslEtrZPm
Kakarot wiped blood off of his lip as he struggled to get up off of the ground.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrKABKixlb
Beet: “Sir!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZMJ4n0VsR
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ7Tq4uLpT
Bulma: “Beet!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguBkdIMSW7
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHftlCyPVIf
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeNJO4bxGQ
Raditz: “Enough! You're stepping far out of your place! Fool!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkhAE2xXD4
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0x8df6Q87Q
Raditz: “You're quite the hot headed bastard, little brother.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rmb22hhmf
Kakarot: “What? Brother?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJO4HyytTD
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzW0Qoc2Fxn
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Yh6884Z9N
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJakInp3p8
Raditz: “Why do you even care? Those scum tossed you aside when you needed them. Whatever happens to them shouldn't concern you.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuVAc16kNr
Kakarot: “Why are you here? Brother.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL14IaOg5l
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseMbzhcP2c
Kakarot: “Recruit me for what?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMZuQ2dx66
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rkx2QJ8fc
Kakarot: “Forgive me, brother, but I can't do it.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT77gv2t7aZ
Raditz: “Huh? Did you not just hear me? He took everything from us! His death must be by our hands!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElNWJPagZG
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uDQ0vRQVh
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zQZtHLa6a
Kakarot turned to his wife, awaiting her approval. Bulma looked away and sighed for a moment before speaking up.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sdtv4hyPf
Bulma: “Just no more fighting between you two, got it?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXVhZfGr8H
Raditz: “You have my word.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kxxWPF823
Beet sat on a chair, pressing some ice against his cheek.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mUkKUFOXB
Beet: “You hit really hard uncle!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9ZaqDzxmy
He said in a mix of irritation and excitement.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxUQpeqxky
Raditz: “Hehe, that's saiyan strength for you, brat!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHwV3oQIGN
Beet: “First Sir and now you, everyone is stronger than me! Well, except mom.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZvN9m8nTJ
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZAeAMy23q
Beet: “Heck yeah!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpvoA3fm6U
Raditz chuckled.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJFUEUKBpq
Beet: “You've left that plate sitting there for a while now, uncle. Aren't you going to pick it up?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4MZKIsKbe
Raditz: “Why would I do that? Isn't that what your mother is here for?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzEtOEw2du
Beet: “Well, my parents say it's good manners to pick up after yourself once you're done eating.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZOcdcyeXE
Raditz: “You earthlings have bizarre customs.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNTHHdqgjZ
Bulma: “Beet! It's bed time, you got school tomorrow!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6LqJJwpzr
Beet: “But mom! It's still early, I wanna talk to uncle Raditz!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uIoRbKj5I
Bulma: “I said get to bed! Now!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFXuedHZA7
Beet: “Sorry uncle, I gotta go.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvfVAkCCp6
Raditz: “Don't sweat it, kid, listen to your mother.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXlejjguzC
Beet marched into his room. Bulma pulled Kakarot close to her, speaking to him in a soft voice.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76DUA0qF3c
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1tVNuYN1a
Kakarot: “I’ll be fine, you go rest.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbNhKxLORY
They shared a kiss before parting ways. Kakarot approached his brother. They sat together in the living room, sharing an awkward silence.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkUqXvl1L7
Raditz: ‘I see you got yourself a tough woman, little brother. Hehe, just how us saiyans like em!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oA7Y6WOHY
Kakarot: “That explains a lot..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGODB1LrSeG
Raditz took a deep breath.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcBKuZ8RDe
Raditz: “Follow me outside, little brother.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEFkZXE93g
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17uf6Q7076
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvwr7Pb8Nd
Kakarot looked down at his fist in shame.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPrLNX6Lr2
Raditz: “You feel it don't you, a calling greater than this piss poor excuse of a life you live.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q38CeNXYJ
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TkCTawlSO
Raditz: “That's your saiyan spirit, your saiyan pride! Take advantage of it, it's your greatest weapon.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKCoEcKCoX
Kakarot looked out into the starry, night sky.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnK0ZFRUCtr
Kakarot: “How many of us are left out there?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmyqmyEJ59
Raditz: “Including you and I, there's four.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3ZZTpFuQk
Kakarot: “By any chance, is one of them our father?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9d41TC9rZH
Raditz: “I'm afraid not.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JbeTj4Hdz
Kakarot: “Did you know him?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwMLTxYyyq
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mFHliEbGd
Kakarot: ‘Yeah… Maybe I do.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNssKqEMtt3
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTnYaPxmIl
Kakarot: “The prince?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhRmKHMjta
Raditz: ‘I'll fill you in tomorrow, go rest, we have a long day ahead of us.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZjAussggC
They descended from the sky and retreated back inside to sleep. The day couldn't have come sooner as Raditz prepared to depart.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjjYXCI7yd
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUhBN2Qys7
Kakarot: “You don't understand, this is my fight. That tyrant has to pay for what he did to my people.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q9HVVZyCy
Bulma: “They're not your people! They're colonizers! You're not like them!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DJeVDK8N4
Kakarot: “….”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlvmxt7vCY
Bulma: “We're your people! Beet, me, our friends from the city!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiy9zM4TIU
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoc4tDAWTX
Bulma hesitated to reply.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQL9gN5kPx
Kakarot: “Please, let me have this. I wanted a greater purpose, and I feel like this is it. I promise I'll return safely.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4qHS2OAdJ
Bulma: “Please, be careful, Kakarot.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA7KYOVsCw
The pair shared a quick kiss before separating. Beet rushed to his father.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKymaDfBtm
Beet: “Sir!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATfBpXK54q
He came face to face with his father.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaqrMSipBe
Beet: ‘Sir, please be back soon. I'll miss you.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLsNrIYqjv
Kakarot gently patted his son's head and crouched to face him directly.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9Y4Q8qv0u
Kakarot: “I'll be back before you know it, listen to your mother and look after her for me, okay?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy57V52T5jD
Beet: “Yes! Sir.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9Aah077ii
Kakarot retreated back to his brother.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogPfcypacu
Raditz: “Are you ready?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhyfNZigxj
Kakarot: “Yeah, take me to the others.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7lb3KLREL
Raditz: “It was a pleasure meeting you all, I'll bring him back in one piece haha!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡka9bAUfnzf
The brothers entered their pods, taking off into the vast space. Raditz communicated with his brother through a radio device within their pods.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomrslELoW5
Raditz: “It's more comfortable than it looks huh?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOR26vjMru
Kakarot: “Definitely. Tell me, brother, what are the others like?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvV2Y2FcUne
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekwiqjpbrE
Kakarot: “They sound amazing.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHYijtGpL9
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.’
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6g3qgeDhcy
Kakarot: “I can't deny, I am a bit excited.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqbSvblr9v
Raditz: “That's the spirit!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBzBfPPuTY
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKcZORUESt
Kakarot: “You must be the prince, it's an honor to meet you.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7kYX328Ic
Vegeta: “You knew me before I even got to introduce myself, quite bizarre.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h8IhgKhbU
Kakarot: “I guess the introduction was unnecessary, from just taking a look at you, I sensed it.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzu3pXOFYb
The prince glanced at the humble warrior, before kicking his face, landing him flat on his back.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZPuGPi3il
Vegeta: “Stand up, boy. We're all warriors, are we not? Have some pride, don't ever lower your head to no one!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjcexYZHnm
Nappa: “Looks like the rookie is off to a bad start! Haha!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDoBykWa3k
Kakarot rubbed his face, he was confused for a brief moment but soon understood the prince's intentions and abided to his command.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gVaVlAJZl
Vegeta: “Follow us, we'll fill you in inside the… battle station.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUS0HWcuYf
The prince hesitated.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNYaHMEPgs
Vegeta: “Remind me again why we went with that name?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjW3T4lmkT
Nappa: “Haha, you see Raditz, I told you “Court Room” would've sounded much better!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9fFQBAleE
Raditz: “Oh shut up you bald freak! Battle station is a fitting name!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXFyLgzuNZ
Nappa: “Hey now! Don't come for my looks! Your freakishly long hair would make anyone want to go bald!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPtVrlCG5t
Vegeta: “Pipe down boys, save that energy for the sparring session.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ABXn6020b
Kakarot nudged his brother's shoulder. Raditz turned to his brother.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UIDyqvyUV
Kakarot: “When I was at war with the earthlings, my wife and I referred to our base as the “Battle Station.”’
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtGSo4q8Lo
He quietly mentioned. Raditz smirked.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLODS6nguG
Raditz: “I knew you'd understand!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCsfD6WXrp
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIXRZ1U9rV
Vegeta: “I'm sure Raditz already let you in on some of the details, correct?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorYQkTvyDR
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoY5i8Ni5z
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHv1mzMVZZ
Kakarot: “Understood. So, where do we begin?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8f8OQHEBh
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe4wv6kmuD
Kakarot: “If they don't submit, what happens then?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqQQ6H8vEQ
Nappa: “What is this weirdo babbling about? We kill them of course!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HvGt9k7zV
Kakarot: “Is it.. really necessary?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6l969N9mF
Nappa: “You can't be serious!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSwHBcCwos
Vegeta: “Raditz, may I speak with you, in private?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRYXh10lmt
Raditz: “Yes, prince.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7fUR4fwWz
The two stepped out for a moment, leaving everyone else in suspense.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeXywzWjBi
Nappa: “Looks like someone's in trouble haha!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNPxZotVBD
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwz0WRiDcoK
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqoHwndowV
Vegeta: “As you wish. I trust you won't let me down.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF64SnP7dIP
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfac2Kdbvf
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiabR320gZ
The group retreated from their meeting room and headed outside. Kakarot caught up to his older brother and spoke with a troubled tone.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSWF1BL5QL
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AHygbeKDq
Raditz: “I'm sure you had to get your hands dirty to conquer your world. Why is this any different?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPTiUl5Lrs
Kakarot: “I fought for my freedom, not for meaningless violence!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZPnO5BkyX
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDQiLyVAYK
Kakarot: “Well, it makes sense when you put it that way.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21UQwBCG5L
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxlkSKOfn7
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ163XrakPW
Kakarot: “Now that you mention it, I can't contain the excitement. I heard Vegeta mention something about sparring.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gzgmI1uhV
Raditz: “Oh yes, we have a special room for sparring.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy89nbfuvd4
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMaC27RnjI
Raditz: “I see, well, we can spare a few minutes before we depart from this planet. Let's get it on!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjfAkqB1kB
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOysZg0TTz
Powerful shock waves swept surrounding rubble into the air. A few more shockwaves shook the area before Kakarot came tumbling to the ground.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO4WIPeklh
Raditz: “You're improving faster than I imagined.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvFJccUBwn
Kakarot: “Hmph, I can't say it doesn't bother me that you have to hold back just for me to keep up.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaOQgdgBeS
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoguK8HURs
Kakarot: “What do you have in mind?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAhlKO72MF
Raditz: “Watch and learn, baby bro!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjIevC0RzC
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvMLpMVZBZ
Kakarot: “What was that?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WjxSiMLO1
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qgDTGhkby
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTeTz7XLuf
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5Uyd8w0ob
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Eze1HkjVz
Raditz: “You're quite odd for a saiyan if I'm being honest.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNQmzxTt5k
Kakarot: “I guess I just feel like I owe it to them after everything we've been through.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIv6czyYLxa
Raditz: “I'm starting to feel like this dream of peace of yours isn't living up to the expectations you had in mind.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgm5VwwsPPM
Kakarot: “You know, I really thought coming here with you guys would have cured this sensation, but I still can't shake the feeling.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jVlPtHjD6
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaEdSadFCW
Kakarot: “If you say so..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUNE79dohL
“Raditz, Kakarot.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkqpinSAyN
A voice called out from the scouter on Raditz's eye.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMMGMOQje8
Raditz: “Vegeta, we're on our way! Kakarot, it's time to go.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwPjkaElmm
Kakarot nodded and followed his brother. They headed to their pods, where the other two saiyans awaited next to their own.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58gJ3T1JEk
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgXMQqttep
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUdtMJmN6z
Vegeta: “What the hell? Did the Tuffles lie to us?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EDy0uPOxI
Nappa wiped sweat off of his head.

Raditz: “Those schemers must've planned this to buy some time for some counter plan!”

Kakarot examined the ground. A few pebbles and some rubble trembled off the ground. He felt a subtle shake.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktyoLMLIWS
Kakarot: “Something's coming from beneath us!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiTVNEa8D7
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiH3Z0MraW3
The creatures remained in a suspended animation-like state. Vegeta's eyebrow twitched in irritation.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy6ymNFNLo
Vegeta: “These incompetent fools are mocking us!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf39s0lb7zn
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DWdtH13hB
“Your foot is on my tail!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1U28WVpcl
“Your tail shouldn't be there then!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDjnQDLHij
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQ7CSELsYW
Raditz: “These numbskulls are nothing but barbaric creatures that give into their primal urges. They're useless to us!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PWJWWR4fQ
Vegeta: “Hmph.. Well, not entirely. Kakarot!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8DKeSTLhh
Kakarot: “Yes, Vegeta?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8lT7ZmBLm
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7d8qTMqjn
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn07R0rwKjr
Raditz: “What? Got cold feet all of a sudden?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVzpijFiua
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCt1yg1OPY
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1rBcW4T2j
Kakarot couldn't dare to face his brother in the eyes. The guilt he felt knowing Raditz was right was overwhelming.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiql4zMhh3
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPbYoWppUj
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lEWGUntsi
Vegeta: “You're starting to seem like a real saiyan. Don't get too cocky though, always watch your blind spot.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreJcvJTyAD
Kakarot smiled.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjuvEtUMNI
Kakarot: “Understood!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmLVUO7Jwu
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqmKcAHyf4
Vegeta: “What the hell?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cD8ro24vt
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4G5ZIguqo
Nappa: “Could that be, Amaterazu?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlongfvYA3
“I am Modora! The most powerful of the Tatsu race! No one wreaks havoc upon MY planet without getting through me!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mJl3KLJ9f
Raditz: “Looks like we got ourselves an even larger hot head. He won't do us any better than the rest.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4BiI7H5Kf
Kakarot: “I'll fight him!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRN2oFa3FD
Everyone turned to Kakarot in surprise.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxccUXQO1KJ
Kakarot: “I'm not done fighting! He'll be MY opponent!”

Modora: “You'll be my first victim then, give me your worst!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscZ0fBdtYK
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBCqU5ai7v
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!

Nappa: “Poor runt, his first big shot is against someone out of his league, hehe, what a shame.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1FiLTXjKC
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07k4mxkMSA
Kakarot: “Come on now, don't back down so soon!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5AXyN5LE5
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.

The elite's scouter scanned the low class warrior, revealing the shocking revelation that his power had shot up drastically.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiNZdvU82D
Vegeta: “It looks like he's putting on quite the spectacle.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7UrbDXAlN
Raditz watched in disbelief. He questioned the situation, pondering about it in his mind.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODIy0VQzDz
Raditz: “He's not just getting stronger, he's improving too. He never demonstrated this level of proficiency before!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PRKFtYgE5
Modora huffed, taking a moment to catch his breath. Kakarot used the opportunity to catch a break as well.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xDVSX2TSp
Modora: “All that and you still can't finish me, I think it's about time I bury you!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhxpQLCfj4
Kakarot: “So it's come to this point at last. I've been anticipating this moment!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwqaaJsLN2
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGnqYs3xIq
Kakarot: “This will be your funeral!”

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2P4hVG7B6
Modora: “Deadly incineration!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoACrE7atq
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVR1ENzCoD

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoDopUWRQM

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYovCRzDMc
Kakarot raised his arms in the air, he savored his victory for winning had never felt so rewarding. He shouted at the top of his lungs.

Kakarot: “Huh?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s4f4eZGlz
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxVR9yBcV3
Raditz: “Why you!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rTHnTA9m2
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghGbX4FoIy
Raditz: “Kakarot! Answer me!”

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VlPFeWXxN
Raditz remained composed but his thoughts quickly ate away at him.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6T5SQswwL
“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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLj1imT4gK
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjCSnCj7Iu
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VFqFvaXoj
Raditz: “I'm positive.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMlLAvD1Vg
Doctor: “Well, it looks like his body has recovered enough to dismiss any urgent treatment.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrS9S3i5Mh

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8OKcfKe24
Doctor: “I will sir.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpTgVlu96W
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.

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

Kakarot: “When is our next crusade?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO1zrpn62k
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnp8xouoQu
Kakarot: “If that's the case…perhaps we could stay on earth, don't you think? It could make the perfect base!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPF5TAk6JQ
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMh08HLJpCv
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAt4pKpC14
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWglrlbWtdu
Kakarot: “Are you saying you never loved a woman?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDyYIN0wMb

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfacR5wthD
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUkIiaIf7Z
Beet: “Sir! What's going on over there?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdwjZzKcRn

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5sX2R9Lx6

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHHsRMwU8e
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.

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwtvq13Ifi

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ717ho2CyIG

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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2BDyABiH4
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince, but I'm not entirely sure if I'm okay with using my nephew as an experiment…”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2RzanQrjx
Vegeta: “Don't tell me your brother's earthling values are rubbing off on you, Raditz.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEB8LQ7Oog
Raditz: “No. Of course not..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6rivAwXa9
Vegeta: “Then do as I say, prove to me you're deserving of the position I've been offering you.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQaVzxeqm0
Raditz: “I will..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvajOkhXXHo
Raditz turned to his comrades.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFSlKfxBWR
Raditz: “I will be taking Beet into the battle chamber. You're all excused to leave.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9BM31eJWa
Kakarot: “Hold on! I can't just let you take my son without me!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXl9ghLXtX
Vegeta: “Calm down, boy. This is the reason I asked to meet him. Besides, it's in our tradition to not question our superiors.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfb14e0T1D1
Raditz put his hand on his brother's shoulder.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRAIFI1c2f
Raditz: “He'll be okay, think of it as special training.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlMIlQFaFm
Kakarot hesitantly nodded.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkBzIRbVML
Kakarot: “Go with your uncle, Beet. Have fun, okay?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBtgPOlk9k
Beet: “I will, Sir!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsUArmM3uE
Kakarot: “I'll be outside.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRXbVR3G0x
Beet: “Okay!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLT1U1Pl29
Raditz: “C'mon now, let's go.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwJncjWBX3
Beet followed his uncle into the training room.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5YL8Gt7UD
Raditz: “That's pathetic! You can do better than that!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS4k8n946p
Beet forced his legs up. He wiped blood off of his lips.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblEMT264Fw
Beet: “I'm going to be strong, like you and Sir!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKs265cyAP
The boy lunged himself forward, giving his uncle everything he had. Raditz smacked him away with a backhand.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbj09E1gti
Raditz: “You're nothing but a runt, you'll never be like your father.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvnKrhxwUn
Beet: “Th-That's! …Not trueeee!!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuYc4FxIbH
Beep! Beep! Beep!!
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8HpBdLtF5
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuXwqf1LQ3
Raditz: “That's… Impossible!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F3zEV7mY5
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvb8Q1YSCa
Raditz: “That's enough, pipsqueak. I'll take you back to your father alright?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9elipiKIf9
Beet: “O-Okay.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WPzg0qOeB
Beet collapsed to the ground. Raditz lifted his nephew and returned him to his father.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOcFj2M0f8
Kakarot: “What happened?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVPiXkLTUD
Raditz: “The boy is fine. Head home Kakarot, take the day off.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsxxLPSofs
Kakarot: “What about the settlement? Won't you guys need my assistance? I know this place better than you all.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUClJ5WaJOI
Raditz: “We can take it from here, just go.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBEODRvHUy
Kakarot: “Fine.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM5x2M7uwd
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡac5ZNGHLzh
“What could he want with that boy? Should I tell Kakarot?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtCNX345DO
He snapped out of his head upon reaching the Prince.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqGMdGj9z2
Raditz: “Vegeta, I've gotten a proper measure of his strength.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEJj5IuGBD
Vegeta: “What did the scouter say?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd7KGz4taL
Raditz: “It… It exceeded 10,000..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwZ26bMkgS
Vegeta: “It looks like my suspicions were correct after all.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡko3U517dcx
Raditz: ‘What's going on? I don't understand what you're getting out of all this!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHRwWZXE9h
Vegeta: “You know it's not tradition to question me, Raditz.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpkHQQNh5k
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3T3ZAg9Wt
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthi3Tnwm6p
Raditz: “I swear on everything, I'll remain loyal to you and only you!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQq9OW1iekk
Vegeta: “Good. Keep the following between us then. I had a slight suspicion that the hybrid could actually be STRONGER than a full blood.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIksswzCMpP
Raditz: “But how is that even possible? With such weak genetics, wouldn't it only bring a saiyan down?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwTpK5eRr6
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaFPq3d8iN
Raditz: “You mislead the rest to save your reputation then?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAO5ttj2gVc
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPdrcqYvMA
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsbsEiQKSH
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipgITHbjXJ
Raditz: “Understood.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoEz1zaa5P
Vegeta: “You're dismissed.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnj2zPY9Xo
Raditz departed from the room.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKWF6JPlAy
“Haaaa”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67eoFbrB9U
An explosion erupted. A warrior with battle armor and a spear went flying from the impact. He slammed to the ground and laid unconscious.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3Be2sQRiC
Raditz: “Nice one, brother! Don't forget what I taught you.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszsBMX7280
Kakarot: “Right.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6k6iXdB8wf
Kakarot lifted the defeated warrior from his head and blasted a hole through his chest with an energy attack.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAILnCHTcvH
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent. I won't make that same mistake again.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcs9u4gXpY
Raditz: “As it should be! Glory comes from victory and victory isn't certain until your opponent is eliminated permanently!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXd7xEzibJ
Kakarot: “A lot of talking, brother! Let's get back to fighting!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEFRTIOntT
Raditz: “Hehe, you rascal.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfWS6KwBiW
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaH6QHcqcRA
Kakarot: “Bulma, I'm home. Prepare me a nice meal, why don't you?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9q9HrfxwEH
Bulma: “I made some miso soup earlier, enjoy the leftovers.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwFwqk8RQu
Kakarot: “What's with the attitude?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxiRmAfAhq
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw15oTRrmcb
Kakarot: “We're not having the conversation again!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM6PoR52HJ
Bulma: “We'll have it as many times as we need to until you get your act right!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvgu2aUdy9
Kakarot stared at her in silence. Beet entered the room, returning from outside. He instantly caught on to the tension between his parents.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFvslh1nq6
Beet: “Is everything okay?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGjzxLQURq
Kakarot: “Yeah, we're all good.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNqQS1HPQZ
He replied, still staring at his clearly upset wife.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEkgyaby8d
Beet: “I'm not dumb! I know you guys are fighting again! Why? Why can't you guys just get along like before?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfb5qoLYZK
Bulma: “Sweetie, we aren't fi-”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBeCC8umAA
Beet: “You're lying! Stop lying! I miss you, Sir, stay home today, please?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PMQNlHGG0
Kakarot frowned before nodding his head.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgeZ0uN8Yk
Kakarot: “Fine. Fine, I'll spend the night, okay?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUT25XOIY3
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ73hPAuHo4
Bulma: “You just couldn't help yourself, huh?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmohJE80KSY
Kakarot turned around.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PMDQCCZ30
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMgEWBEdAl
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkx4at6lrp
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOI6TCXOiF
Kakarot: “I couldn't possibly forget.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszj0aLmqSs
Bulma: “We looked out for each other ever since. We loved each other! Where did that go?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwDRsZC4YU
Kakarot remained silent. He simply frowned.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwJd4zUkht
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCx9bMt2A6
Kakarot: “Hmph… I've recently been wondering why I still bother to stop by here myself.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxB5sb8jQq
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPHJLCjLh4
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxgfjb4IRX
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEF5FJRQUO0
Colonel: “Yes? Prince?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UmLmS99lB
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mtaTlwKtK
Colonel: “Understood…Sir.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Hx8xZu9WV
Kakarot tapped his brother's shoulder.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUZros4GVF
Kakarot: “Are you excited? Brother?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKp9uSEykj
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFgBSC9ie2
Kakarot: “Right!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzS2WE61MU
Vegeta: “Kakarot.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXPd0zRuXx
Kakarot: “Yes?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt8PMhzZxr
Vegeta: “You'll be with Nappa and I.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL6VcYFrEq
Kakarot: “Oh, w-wow! It is an honor, Prince Vegeta!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7RxmXRJWr
Raditz: “Huh? But you said I'd take that role!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHBE1e3RIk
Vegeta: “Kakarot surpassed you a while ago, I'm not taking risks with an inferior saiyan.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYIBlZF05z
Raditz clenched his fists. He gave his brother a spiteful glare before taking a few breaths.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZqpuNw3k7
Raditz: “As you wish, Prince. I'll take Kakarot's task.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhAr9WQbj2
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78qEBFLxnd
Raditz: “I'll see you all later.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aaP0f8jUa
Kakarot: “Raditz!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4i2ri4ekF5
Raditz turned to his brother.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5eWrFPGRN
Kakarot: “Be careful.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3MVNXL3gd
Raditz: “Right..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrW7BKbBZqL
Raditz took off with his pod.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQp8TGsAQL5
“Someone is entering the atmosphere!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIxaPEAMCW
“Let me take a look.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4mwoXuQ3q
Beep! Beep! Beep!
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTc9Usy4C3
“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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFy8t3uNJa
Zarbon approached the landing vehicle. The pod met its destination and out came Raditz from inside.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRzlR2ZTJf
Raditz: “Greetings, Zarbon.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Hem7Fu0TO
He bowed in respect.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfgh6DvCUt
Zarbon: “At least you know your place.. State your business, saiyan!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZ6YKMS44f
Raditz: “The prince would like to speak with the lord.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlR9snu3NZ
Zarbon: “You know he can't come barging in on such short notice! Especially since our lord is quite busy right now.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlBcvVE6ur
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiOxAKHtKQ
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOs7AGuwBa
Raditz: “As you wish.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7famonG8z1
Zarbon signaled for him to stand and follow his lead.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuooP5olEX
Nappa: “So once he gives the signal, we make our move?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGFhoCmCqx
Vegeta: “Precisely.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezHMI1NOub
Nappa: “What exactly is the signal?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmBMq5ZY0u
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1GKrUbXrV
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDyz4YFQeH
Zarbon took his leave.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWlZob0YJe
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKMT2PcRXr
Raditz sat patiently, noticing one of the guards peeping at him. He turned his gaze to the guards direction.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauVC5Im3Ep
Raditz: “Ya got a problem? Fool!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RnEQcrpEg
Guard: “You won't be this bold when Lord Frieza arrives!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrSJrkY0LN
Raditz chuckled.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjqQFLdYQG
Raditz: “Yeah. We'll see.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NaYWNCv0W
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5iV91yaAR
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdggPYYYoe
Beep! Beep! Beep!
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNSK7m0J6C
Raditz: “He's here…”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iQHFWdmXv
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpw7Shsi8p
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ktf9Jhiv5
Vegeta: “It's time! Let's end this!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GPMXbFQY2
The saiyans commenced their transformation as their ship rapidly approached the planet's atmosphere.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJG3mZYRcE
Zarbon: “I warned you, saiyan!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5slX6qCAAq
Raditz: “It's too late now, pretty boy! Frieza is finished!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATTMu8nduF
Dodoria entered the room with a sinister laugh. Raditz’s eyes widened, he felt his soul leave his body for a moment.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3HmYLjvsd
Dodoria: “Surprised to see me?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxhmnqYbno
Raditz: “N-No! This can't be!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPv9a00irB
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtG12bOntcz
Vegeta: “Hehe.. That fool never saw it coming!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbp7iuadPA
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCabgxOOo4H
Vegeta: “Here lies the foolish emper- What?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmneRyLkLKN
Vegeta desperately searched through the remains.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHLQygvJys
Nappa: “What's wrong? Vegeta?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYsCbeozUJ
Vegeta: “This ship… I-It's a decoy!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZKi6wj2Xc
Kakarot: “What! That means-”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGvsluEvzn
“Quite the bold attempt I must say. You know, I knew you'd turn on me one day, Vegeta.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QIlmAGHev
Vegeta: “Frieza!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZWJw64uPP
Dodoria: “Looks like your little plan didn't go out as you expected!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuQiJ5Rgbc
Raditz: “Damn it!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2o7nZVROcD
Zarbon: “Do us all a favor and don't resist. You know it'll only end up being futile in the end.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvs5rspJfln
Raditz: “I guess I don't got a choice huh?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mL1XIZ6xH
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVF6P72Wn7
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmr6F9Wv2P
Vegeta: “No! It's not over! Not yet! We'll just have to destroy you the old fashioned way.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEp2jWmIEaT
Frieza: “I'd love to see how that plays out.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNs9DfmJEC
Dodoria: “Rrraaaaa!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEMYHINVzU
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlOaNzTWgX
Raditz: “Eat this! Weekend!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsT8epau72R
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sY2TyMbir
Dodoria: “What the hell? How did he get so powerful? Something must be wrong!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86e2FNxT76
Zarbon: “Let me check the scouter.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡro1vQwvvOn
Beep! Beep! Beep!
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliuLQfS3sq
Zarbon: “N-No way!”

Zarbon: “His power level is 35,000!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXlICqmrac
Dodoria: “But Raditz has always been a weakling! How is that possible?!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B2anmdo7P
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIggQdWlG8W
Dodoria: “Oh great, first I get showed up by some low class saiyan, and now I have to work with you. Just my luck.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ib2V516Pm
Zarbon: “I'm not so thrilled to fight alongside someone as repulsing as you either.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEn7EA6JMzD
Dodoria: “Whatever, let's get this over with!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oys2uq8Bk
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.

Dodoria: “Why you!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziP5OjlCzj
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekDWcLQUP8
Raditz: “Got somethin in your eyes?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtR70zvbK0
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.

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu45VaUUhs
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMD5vYgrxVw
Frieza: “Haaa!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYPl0dr0Eo
The tyrant blew away his surroundings with his explosive power, relieving himself from Vegeta's pressure.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3Nd4nuMqj
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFjnmZDSlv
Vegeta: “So you concede to my might?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3rIyWP0Mf

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFTifIkkC5
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.

Raditz detonated a ki blast in front of the 2 of them, creating a blinding smoke cloud. He ascended higher into the air.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5BG5VDrip
Raditz: “Scatter Shot!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡye6ZG5l3Ld
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.

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jjc5nMB56

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwvnVLvYsh
Raditz: “Frieza's off guard, this is our chance!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNVVvXyydL

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmkUdbYTbO
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.

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxcEa213gn
Kakarot: “Look out!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBWQggHDmp
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.

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SDJaWYNdb
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgv4O1GmpKV
Frieza: “Done playing around yet? Vegeta?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUQCaz547C
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6WWTWSIQy
Raditz: “Double Sunday!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNfHFlYhG2
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8MNfNzFTL
Raditz: “I-I can't move!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxGzTjEIMx

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKNSldtFgy
Frieza: “You again!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qQZNKLoA4
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7qFjGSn3w
Frieza: “You actually made me raise my guard. Interesting.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdejFxVsPa0
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYN3YWr6dG
Frieza: “What? I don't understand! There's something different about you!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTKVJdt2CS
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNcRHmAcLG
Frieza: “You dare lay your hands on me!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNb97BgLti
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJejSAPW84
Frieza: “This isn't right! I broke you! I felt it in every attack! You shouldn't even be standing!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyKDs9FjVJ
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaNTvBFkvv
Raditz: “Is that really him?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFLXcUgyZq
Kakarot: “F-Friezaaaa!!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4jbQOpoCk
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEhhS7A84f
Frieza: “No! No!! You're… the super saiyan! There's no other explanation for this!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vvXLEMXEf
Raditz poked a button on his scouter.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtKR4fjJj6
Raditz: “Vegeta! Is what I'm hearing true? Has Kakarot truly become a super saiyan?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfJi4S9sGu
Vegeta was snapped out of a trance.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKBfI4BXlz
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujBj8h57Ng
Raditz: “But how does that even happen?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfkwmm5hvB
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RP0Z1ydMP
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QxZI5PaVp
Frieza: “I'll just have to wipe you out along with this planet!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNR7qKMl67
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDomCPvZxG
Vegeta: “Galick Gun…Fire!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsrj4TXytP
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEibBy2aCbZ
Frieza: “You've asked for it! This is my full power!! Haaa!!”

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7UfzEoE7G
A projectile darted to Frieza's head, slightly discombobulating him.

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GOk1VL4YU
“Haaaaaa!!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnubDeeasF
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.

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVCTaW7HUB
Raditz: “Kakarot! It's me! Raditz! I know you're in there!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ped8npafA

Kakarot's grip loosened but he continued to hold his brother in a lethal position.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9W6U1pR4TR
Raditz: “Fight for your consciousness, brother! You can overcome your overwhelming power and make it yours!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbUhUEXvys

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3v2mtzfwV
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhDaLw1Iaq
Frieza: “You… That look… It's starting to seem familiar..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHoVY9lTLD

Kakarot: “My name.. is Kakarot! And in the name of the saiyan race, I'm going to send you straight to hell!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fQuzBgyBz
Kakarot finished Frieza with a blast that disintegrated every last remnant of him.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHy6r9d3l8
Kakarot: “It's done…”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgxdYY0zzl
Raditz: “He he he, Ha! Ha! Ha! We've won!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pYNPYc96q
Vegeta ascended into the air.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyld0VVUqut
Vegeta: “Everyone! Listen up! Frieza is dead! Head back to the ship! I'll finish the rest!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad9HKsbHgd
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIJ1bbA3gM
Colonel: “Prince Vegeta! What about the survivors? I thought the plan was to end every last one!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLAs7LVQzs
Vegeta: “Of course, I've left them a little present.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLS7tshUTCj
The remaining soldiers of the Frieza force watched as a small shard of ki sank into the planet.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguzHIN0VNK
Vegeta: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCMcyh6iJX
The planet exploded leaving no trace of its existence behind. The men cheered, the Colonel shook the prince's hand.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBz52qE1lU
Colonel: “It has been an honor serving you.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyKGbryNWx
Vegeta: “As promised, you'll be with us from now on.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVOK74af4M
Colonel: “And the rest of the Tuffles?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mVfjl6z0U
Vegeta: “I have a purpose in mind for those inferior people.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDO3glgq4N
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLz6f2gGbZ
Kakarot: “That power I felt earlier, I don't understand it, brother. Normally these experiences are exhilarating, but this, it was maddening, terrifying even.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96U5Hx5plW
Raditz: “I don't quite understand it either, but that power avenged our people. You've fulfilled your destiny, right?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWcd4VNBaa
Kakarot: “Yeah… I guess I did.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwY75HCylsR
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWJSrujxLP
Raditz: “Good day, Prince, how may I be of service to you today?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JVJJjUqrh
Vegeta: “Your brother put on quite the spectacle yesterday, didn't he?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JfHhbsVrN
Raditz: “Yes… He did.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YdVGLp0gk
Vegeta: “It doesn't take a genius to realize he's left us both behind.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhUxyPhy0N
Raditz: “Yeah, it is quite apparent.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVShlC2hFdA
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zmamtT5Me
Raditz: “What are you suggesting? Vegeta?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkAjLBw5r2
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V1q5ZL00n
Raditz: “Considering your competition, your threats don't mean much right now. So enlighten me, why is that path doomed for failure?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27wtZl8DBq
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON0dDITxC1
Raditz stared at the floor, lost in his thoughts.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpH5reF3fA
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCdXmLyZPv
Raditz: “W-What do you propose? Even if I went along with it, we can't stop him.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0vOJdrFHW
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt713vypTT2
Raditz: “I won't fail you, Vegeta. I think I know how to get him off our backs.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlA6guMk96p
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEllfUTgfaV
Kakarot pondered deeply, looking into the dim, cloudy sky.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXzPrAsrFk
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOuy9tBGLf
He looked at his fist in shame.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AffzoKONT
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuEPR4vu4j
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNqk6i6wbB
A sudden static came from Kakarot's scouter.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqrOs1jAu1
“Bro—-er! You ne—-ed to come! Q—--ck!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwdWcZA5VU
Kakarot: “Raditz! Is that you!? Raditz! What's wrong?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3HTzwL7fX
Raditz: “I— tried to save th—m!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofG9LzI8eV
Kakarot: “Where are you?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecxLRgh9Jr
Raditz: “Y—our place!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlFI0o88Gz
Kakarot: “I'm on my way!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTgWLYqcnO
Kakarot anxiously rushed back to his home. The sky roared as a thunderstorm broke out. Vicious rain drops poured all over the land.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mXyEhbDg1
Kakarot: “Has one of Frieza's loyal followers found our base? He's probably seeking revenge against me!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyKPhRYwbM
Kakarot arrived in mere moments. Raditz waited for him outside. Most of Kakarot's home was battered up and crumbling apart.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUo9WULMjZ2
Kakarot: “Brother! What happened? Where's Bulma and Beet?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogf76eKZ59
Raditz had a cut on his cheek and some of his armor had been damaged. He took a moment to catch his breath.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWii3UQhp1R
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..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SaUAqM9Uf
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ux7joEnAx
Kakarot: “No…”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2l43xo7yV
Raditz limped behind him, putting his hand on his brother's shoulder.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7jQRwtyay
Raditz: “I'm terribly sorry, Kakarot. I found them like this by the time I arrived. I couldn't save them…”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVoUpmECIA
Kakarot: “No, no, no, no…. They should have come after me.. no..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhto2VKmMtO
He fell to his knees, and held his son in his arms.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0QC25DgfQ
Kakarot: “B-Beet… I should've been there, to protect you.. both of you.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoaSh33G90
Raditz: “It's a real shame… he cried out for his “Daddy” in his last moments you know.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAfbjCpKld
Kakarot: “I wasn't there for him..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsB7vM52LW
Kakarot froze for a moment. His eyes widened.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIefq58zlwm
Kakarot: “You… You said you found them like this when you got here..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vza2kfh9j
Raditz: “Let this be my final lesson to you brother. Trust no one.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDmT3fr2bq
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqMs3LMcwX
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTl05pYDV5
Kakarot: “H-How.. c-ccould.. youuu..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd1fNp9yt0
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBGgjVlQWu
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1gKK5vPM5
Raditz: “It's done, sir.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohA24guPOl
Vegeta: “What did you do?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnypXpyBh5
Raditz: “I got rid of him and his boy for good. They will never get in our way again.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43WWaj3BTh
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJD6jB7Al2
Raditz: “It is an honor.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngAbzcR4Pj
Raditz bowed down in respect.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqDDVD3tCF
“Prince Vegeta! Our security has been breached! They're headed your wa-”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQMzmgyEnj
The signal was cut off in a violent manner, before they had time to process the warning, something smashed through the entrance.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMPzMGWOLJ
Kakarot: “Y-You!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmunWcMMqj
Raditz: “Impossible! He should've succumbed to his wounds!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqsGlH6sS2
Kakarot took heavy breaths and struggled to stand.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoedr1Zkl5
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03XOsR6kQT
Raditz: “Right!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NfRaxg4qp
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvjZnkHDYu
Vegeta: “Nappa was a fool that let his emotions cloud his judgment.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLAAtXn2n5
Kakarot: “He was your friend!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HK9RNRkWg
Vegeta: “And he paid the price for it.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uqIFkDfsT
Kakarot: “I l-looked up to you guys!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJoYEVjkd4
Tears ran down his face.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2H4jVPwXi
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?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTALNOK8N0J
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSbFnxJW1P
Kakarot: “Haaaaa!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfJMj28vkI
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1GVZoT9US
Raditz: “Vegeta!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGUY5XcV1D
Kakarot rushed Raditz, tackling him to the ground. He pounded his face a few times before grabbing a hold of his neck.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRDUD8lhdB
Kakarot: “Why!? We're brother's! Why would you do this! You meant everything to me!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEJKjvEXnc
Raditz smirked.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkQyueErKc
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIq7sXpIBEL
Kakarot: “So none of this ever really mattered, huh? I should've killed you back in our fight with Frieza!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIBMIsUCP9
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDaUXznK8L
Kakarot: “Ha! Ha! Haa!! None of this matters huh? It never did! Nothing does!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlh1AElZ6yV
He pounded the ground.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyb1g74ooY
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYxLouqKbe
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UuHUXIGhZ
Kakarot: “To fight!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMm0sECHvR
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcIyVFrq0R
Raditz: “B-Brother.. You w-wouldn't kill me.. right? I'm…all you have left.. p-please let me make things right..”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5U9r7KtD1
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent, remember?”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PqDx5LUYo
Kakarot chuckled and removed his fist. He blasted him away. Raditz's lifeless course collapsed to the ground.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCxxSvBdC7
Vegeta: “Big Bang attack!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqbXzixtOP
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz3JVRE0OF
Vegeta: “Gaahh!!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAe21pbaZXa
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLY1NPGuVtx
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMlIcz6cNC
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.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuj35ABh7u
Vegeta: “Wait!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4f2mGNXcGK
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.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg16G8YjtS7
Kakarot: “After years of exploration and combat, I've finally made the time to gather them all together.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHU3HsL8V0O
The seven dragon balls glowed in union before the mighty shenron burst out from within them.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS2SC5uHXb
Shenron: “Speak your wish.”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkdUlO7CE4
Kakarot put his hand on a special vehicle he had beside him.
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1Orjn87FP
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!”
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskp1lCY4Cp
Shenron: “As you wish."
