Frieza: “I almost feel some guilt having to do this, I'm aware you were one of our more loyal ones, Bardock.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50MxQyq4jP
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDfsiinhVU
Zarbon: “My lord, shall I dispose of this trash?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa27sfRAJOf
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMu40hc0BT
Frieza departed from his space pod, heading towards Bardock directly. They came face to face, only a few feet apart.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYO62VYITug
Bardock: “Haaaa!!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdagbGun2D5
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkWqomRqUv
Frieza: “All your efforts couldn't even leave a mere scratch, but how dare you lay your filthy hands on me!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NQtBoljpL
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUFi36IoMM
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy2qHKG8oB
A small pod zoomed past them from a considerable distance. Bardock watched it leave and smirked.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fNr9rOhiy
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DxLYrt86P
Frieza: “Well if that's your dying wish, then I shall consider it.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvLz6NhWtk
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3C3yqFhZu
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFZuthAOwG
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbY1vNQIYk
Frieza: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABmGRs1aze
Bardock: “Go Kakarot…. Be the warrior I never could and show the world who you are!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhcnMsv73R
Bardock, along with his planet, perished becoming one with the empty, infinite space.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2vODMMS42
“Your alliance has fallen, Commander. Teaming up with the government couldn't save you, you're out of options.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8R5gTcNoL
Commander Red: “You're..You're a monster!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3EYRVie1c
“The world brought this upon itself when it decided to turn on me and reject me. This war was all because of you!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7ITpVk1Wg
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84RlhOlNij
Kakarot crushed the severed head of an android that he held, with his bare hands.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZgckirUcc
Kakarot: “This world will never throw me aside again! For it now belongs to me! Kakarot!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqC5hmvKeqg
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTA3iCOtFt
“Damn it! The signal hasn't returned! Where are you? Kakarot!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjocRzR7WB
Kakarot gently landed from the air.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJHI3pQVtd
Kakarot: “Bulma, it's over.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I7USMcg6F
Bulma rushed towards him and greeted him with a tight hug.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WQthQPyaN
Bulma: “I thought something had happened to you! Your signal cut off!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzA1Be7SXGn
Kakarot returned the affection before acknowledging her concern.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzV3pEgg0P
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8R0vfriDua
Bulma looked down and sighed. Her grip on Kakarot loosened. Kakarot frowned, noticing her discomfort.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBh3q0Di07T
Kakarot: “What's wrong?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlphB2hO62d
Bulma: “I'm grateful for our freedom, but don't you wish this all could have been different?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwCfb1TjOs
Kakarot: “I don't understand, what are you referring to?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNVfeocxug
Bulma: “We destroyed many lives for the better of our own. I'm not sure I'm allowed to celebrate this victory…”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe21dtkykoK
Kakarot gently pulled her towards him, holding her by her hand.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Qr1Q1kdJz
Kakarot: “What matters today is that we get to live in peace. We can have a future together at last.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ401RRwO6t4
Bulma: “Yeah.. I guess you're right. The world is our's now, where do we even begin?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcQWKd7mdk
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhFYf0uG2x
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLE5zwb9IkJ
Kakarot: “Here it is, just as you asked, the largest boar I could find.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7pGBaXOz2
Kakarot put down the carcass of the freshly hunted boar.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLXhd2wfsg
Bulma: “Hey! You're getting blood on the floor! Leave it somewhere else!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi9VlLerVA
Kakarot: “Jeez, fine I'll leave it outside in the meantime.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nsekUrsou
Bulma shifted her focus back to her personal project she had been working on.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsCmJtc2XW
Kakarot: “You've been cooped up here for a while, what exactly are you making?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvgM7MtGKJ
Bulma: “It's a stretch, but have you ever wondered what lies beyond our world? Not just the galaxy but our universe as well.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv1zZmdt5M
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0V5vKSa2z
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M5FDnL0Og
Kakarot: “So you're building a sort of vehicle I assume? What's that going to do?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBi2JjOBOQ
Bulma: “You could tell it's a vehicle from this small progress alone?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0EuhXQgJH
Kakarot: “That's clearly an engine, not one from any current technology we have though. Okay..I confess, I occasionally tinker with your stuff.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiC416g52gT
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHJIySS1Gh
Kakarot: “You're still bent on this..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcxPPLNG7o
Bulma: “I just can't fathom why it doesn't bother you as much! Don't you feel any remorse for what we did?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZos2hvKTj
Kakarot: “We did what we had to, I took no joy in it, but it's what had to be done.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLaqn0jlX6
Bulma sighed and dropped her head.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmr6jXMo1KQ
Bulma: “I should get to cooking that boar, I could use the break.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkiVFTFB0Q
Kakarot: “Hm… Where's Beet?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdYH838ai2
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGj4KwOqet
Kakarot: “Looking for a good hunt I bet, I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYuJoV7Ope
Beet: “Haaa!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiamEAA5SNb
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TmJAeN5Uk
Beet: “Darn! I should've picked a smaller one to challenge!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsULFB03Gv
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N6noNkkhg
Kakarot: “You've still got a lot to learn boy.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCOZ8TNWj1
Beet: “You made it just in time sir!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96QO11FgzJ
Kakarot put his son down and faced the dinosaur.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vmbd9Aknq
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-”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5y1OMe0LzT
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2XvDjeU28
Kakarot: “ …..If you take away its tail, it won't have anything left to defend itself with.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XfKTO48MG
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjiMgSN9AW
Kakarot: “Enough”!
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hidda4zBC
Beet: “Huh?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GcXgBjDZU
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROnUZooJt1
Beet: “But sir, you've let me hunt animals before! What's so different now?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkACOLPCKM
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcD5EKx807
Beet: “I'm sorry, sir.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfu1uAFZqd4
Kakarot: “Don't sweat it, let's head home already, we've got to help your mom prepare.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdag3hBGq3C
Beet: “Right!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcFKRDsj6s
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugtemPHIn9
Bulma: “Honey, you're acting strange.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BlbixrDr8
Kakarot: “I think my stomach is just upset from the boar. Maybe you didn't cook it right.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjCpxyZrEZ
Bulma: “Hey! If you're going to be ungrateful then maybe I'll just let you starve next time!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJygHL6Tkp
Kakarot: “Nevermind.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTQHyiuAab
Bulma's irritation dissipated, lowering her tone into a more gentle manner. She reached out and placed her hand on his shoulder.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvdLyK6ihZ
Bulma: “If something is bothering you, you can always tell me.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2EvzD3pdg
Kakarot: “.... Doesn't this ever get stale to you? A similar routine every single day?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHPEqIryn9
Bulma: “I get to spend the day with you and Beet, we finally have the peace we always wanted, that's enough for me.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZZ46MgBIi
Kakarot: “I just think we could be doing more. I could be doing more. Is this really where my life peaks?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMQGcAmnUR
Bulma: “Is it so wrong to simply settle down and enjoy the family you've built?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ9ypVNIV2
Kakarot: “Perhaps helping Beet with his studies is getting to me.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXl68dPT4G
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfqy20JXJ3
Kakarot: “Yeah.. I'll just sleep it off.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHZyjVuuxu

Somewhere on a nearby planet, an unforgettable nightmare was taking place. Three giant apes wreaked havoc upon the inhabitants of this world.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4wkbBAGAX
“We have no other option, it's time we surrender.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77qP3LAQz3

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmLG5Vu5j6
“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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEQEbUSUaV
Colonel: “On it, my lord.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJff7As0HcF
The Colonel clicked on a button on a device he had strapped to his ear. He hesitated to speak before giving his final order.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbCUYTSHtk
Colonel: “Stand down boys, it's over..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9iPPRTIt4
The tension settled down as the apes reverted back into their natural forms.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHZsa8xWtB
“I was starting to hope they'd just let us destroy all of them.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDtrgcYkFX
The king himself confronted the deadly trio.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoWMXIccTt
“King Tuffle, about time you come to your senses.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5a87zuwgk
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHWFXbcVix
“Hand me the device on your eye.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcADQTdC3Qp
The king hesitantly reached for the piece that rested on his ear and handed it over to the colonizer. He wore the device with a confident grin.

“Hey Raditz, we can finally track down your little brother with these huh? He may be a puny runt but another saiyan wouldn't hurt.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFOaqstgaf
Raditz: “Yes, it's about time I pay him a visit!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJOydOxWjh
Bulma: “Pass me the wrench, Honey!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HOre0rV5h
Kakarot: “Give me a minute, I'm fixing something up over here.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3z1vgKAN1
Kakarot twisted a bolt with the wrench before handing it over.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rNGPmJ1do
Bulma: “Thanks! It's kind of weird seeing you use these tools when you're strong enough to use your bare hands.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10XiEGnTeQ
Kakarot: “I guess it's just more comfortable this way, it also helps me stop myself from accidentally breaking something.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMZtff6dgg
Bulma chuckled.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zr7vs0BTW
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48SwV3fvfZ
Kakarot: “It helps me relax, and if you really want to do this, then I'll support you.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1Q0fweXuV
Bulma: “Where did this sweet attitude suddenly come from?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbaBGbOSge
Beet: “Momm!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeE55wzvZB
Bulma: “Hold that thought-”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrpaaRBtVF
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXanVjgHgh
Bulma: “My husband won't answer to you!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3wfzRAt3r
He rushed outside to inspect the commotion at hand.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPplx224zKQ
Raditz: “There you are, Kakarot. This pesky woman was making this more complicated than it had to be.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SehzM0G8y
The saiyan stood his ground. He gently pushed his family behind him and confronted the strange visitor.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXGoSJlSPx
Kakarot: “Who are you? And how do you know my name?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYNskLb9bH
Raditz approached his oblivious sibling.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDpXLgf4ie
Raditz: “There's no reason to be hostile-”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtq2oCRIgw
Kakarot swung his fist towards Raditz's face. The saiyan moved his head out of the way with ease.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccn7Hiva57
Raditz: “You're testing my patience, Kakarot!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCokZER0gM
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMs0FGBSO3
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpyBffcwMA
Kakarot: “Enough!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBsPHVvCOY
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4NV7bLnE9
Raditz: “Your attacks are not only slow, but predictable as well. You have the natural talent but you lack the proper training.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDVo4FdEsT
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQYMBaw2da
Kakarot: “I couldn't even see him get behind me!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNj6CbVe1R
Kakarot wiped blood off of his lip as he struggled to get up off of the ground.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14xcwoeScn
Beet: “Sir!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQwQV2UQBK
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUS6INuCqLP
Bulma: “Beet!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVTfxu5lle
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfEkytnIic
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEPi9HT7CD
Raditz: “Enough! You're stepping far out of your place! Fool!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYUo3jwcGE
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkyzQYZca6
Raditz: “You're quite the hot headed bastard, little brother.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ0NAbwdwu
Kakarot: “What? Brother?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbPFtz33fM
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs6EcCTQ53
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcu6Qh74jWf
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzWo87MH4W
Raditz: “Why do you even care? Those scum tossed you aside when you needed them. Whatever happens to them shouldn't concern you.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6C312sIUiC
Kakarot: “Why are you here? Brother.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNys3MVD0r6
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjIYcDXhVV
Kakarot: “Recruit me for what?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpb9A2D18t
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmZUThvfSl
Kakarot: “Forgive me, brother, but I can't do it.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zhXG1BfNt
Raditz: “Huh? Did you not just hear me? He took everything from us! His death must be by our hands!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvV220lWaBg
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bqDaAkLdx
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Lr0pwcCy7
Kakarot turned to his wife, awaiting her approval. Bulma looked away and sighed for a moment before speaking up.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8mflosDjk
Bulma: “Just no more fighting between you two, got it?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhwqmqxoTz
Raditz: “You have my word.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIv1lBIuqo
Beet sat on a chair, pressing some ice against his cheek.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRN1OV9c6E9
Beet: “You hit really hard uncle!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCEQsI2ikZ
He said in a mix of irritation and excitement.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2R4MKc5Wba
Raditz: “Hehe, that's saiyan strength for you, brat!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInZgcpsd96
Beet: “First Sir and now you, everyone is stronger than me! Well, except mom.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMX1MCDyvo
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcIUEublHn
Beet: “Heck yeah!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIylsjg6kpT
Raditz chuckled.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFH4lxscWG
Beet: “You've left that plate sitting there for a while now, uncle. Aren't you going to pick it up?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtybaxDoO9
Raditz: “Why would I do that? Isn't that what your mother is here for?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hWUOBVBfO
Beet: “Well, my parents say it's good manners to pick up after yourself once you're done eating.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdJcE1c8p9
Raditz: “You earthlings have bizarre customs.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNaEfqVpGY
Bulma: “Beet! It's bed time, you got school tomorrow!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LKLxiDlme
Beet: “But mom! It's still early, I wanna talk to uncle Raditz!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzbvDoeF58
Bulma: “I said get to bed! Now!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqBLafQE0X
Beet: “Sorry uncle, I gotta go.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0o4nhE0o5
Raditz: “Don't sweat it, kid, listen to your mother.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlT0FEKtcbh
Beet marched into his room. Bulma pulled Kakarot close to her, speaking to him in a soft voice.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizKPrVG4sm
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBcrOfv1MB
Kakarot: “I’ll be fine, you go rest.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzWeMjF1P6
They shared a kiss before parting ways. Kakarot approached his brother. They sat together in the living room, sharing an awkward silence.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4OODS3DpJ
Raditz: ‘I see you got yourself a tough woman, little brother. Hehe, just how us saiyans like em!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzHqdPRo5R
Kakarot: “That explains a lot..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYe0sLksPN
Raditz took a deep breath.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4datSgn23A
Raditz: “Follow me outside, little brother.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9bbI7YsIM
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54W4tnWggY
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3XFTNGWxa
Kakarot looked down at his fist in shame.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAon21w3q4p
Raditz: “You feel it don't you, a calling greater than this piss poor excuse of a life you live.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Xq4Gr3x0k
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqT6n8liZTE
Raditz: “That's your saiyan spirit, your saiyan pride! Take advantage of it, it's your greatest weapon.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqdbRLH6pa
Kakarot looked out into the starry, night sky.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UGitE0lwc
Kakarot: “How many of us are left out there?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WYrHRR8Vf
Raditz: “Including you and I, there's four.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0oi8wMW2Y
Kakarot: “By any chance, is one of them our father?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ywm3RhPOP
Raditz: “I'm afraid not.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWLraKQca1
Kakarot: “Did you know him?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR53yUf68Jy
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6XqRJ1k1e
Kakarot: ‘Yeah… Maybe I do.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqpUTNeODm
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bWh0Gf19l
Kakarot: “The prince?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVG7rFZyus
Raditz: ‘I'll fill you in tomorrow, go rest, we have a long day ahead of us.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqcrzDaJR4
They descended from the sky and retreated back inside to sleep. The day couldn't have come sooner as Raditz prepared to depart.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1iHAwEWup
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW01qqOAn4m
Kakarot: “You don't understand, this is my fight. That tyrant has to pay for what he did to my people.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oTmhPdYso
Bulma: “They're not your people! They're colonizers! You're not like them!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPJiXNtfOu
Kakarot: “….”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZhuZq5S3w
Bulma: “We're your people! Beet, me, our friends from the city!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoi6NgxK97
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5UdGHpAxK
Bulma hesitated to reply.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrMHiSH3kh
Kakarot: “Please, let me have this. I wanted a greater purpose, and I feel like this is it. I promise I'll return safely.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP01jPtBbuV
Bulma: “Please, be careful, Kakarot.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThhiXCZ2yT
The pair shared a quick kiss before separating. Beet rushed to his father.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjHcTlctfT
Beet: “Sir!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05lVYA6ODe
He came face to face with his father.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw0l9N2ZkR
Beet: ‘Sir, please be back soon. I'll miss you.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhlgX8dsxn
Kakarot gently patted his son's head and crouched to face him directly.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAQIbfSCNv
Kakarot: “I'll be back before you know it, listen to your mother and look after her for me, okay?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxjRwjiUgd
Beet: “Yes! Sir.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUkT9KWMiR
Kakarot retreated back to his brother.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSs2dpypUE
Raditz: “Are you ready?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM18ulqWSaa
Kakarot: “Yeah, take me to the others.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r2fZj8bsR
Raditz: “It was a pleasure meeting you all, I'll bring him back in one piece haha!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwj6AiVRST
The brothers entered their pods, taking off into the vast space. Raditz communicated with his brother through a radio device within their pods.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXrEqrYJFr
Raditz: “It's more comfortable than it looks huh?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0flbmdS5k
Kakarot: “Definitely. Tell me, brother, what are the others like?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyp0GWpu7H
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscZf21yoR9
Kakarot: “They sound amazing.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFmtTBwB0M
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.’
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjY1fydJd8
Kakarot: “I can't deny, I am a bit excited.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aH8QKif3n
Raditz: “That's the spirit!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwagwnxpAK0
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNN7qVIJIQ
Kakarot: “You must be the prince, it's an honor to meet you.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdi9Yvb5tH
Vegeta: “You knew me before I even got to introduce myself, quite bizarre.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflitqrs3Uc
Kakarot: “I guess the introduction was unnecessary, from just taking a look at you, I sensed it.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBj5ghAOxED
The prince glanced at the humble warrior, before kicking his face, landing him flat on his back.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRfCHXqrvY
Vegeta: “Stand up, boy. We're all warriors, are we not? Have some pride, don't ever lower your head to no one!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AHR0KVoJs
Nappa: “Looks like the rookie is off to a bad start! Haha!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoHsiijNHQ
Kakarot rubbed his face, he was confused for a brief moment but soon understood the prince's intentions and abided to his command.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb7cxO9qLC
Vegeta: “Follow us, we'll fill you in inside the… battle station.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oLdH441cx
The prince hesitated.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcc6PaQ9gv
Vegeta: “Remind me again why we went with that name?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhbEL5ixI8
Nappa: “Haha, you see Raditz, I told you “Court Room” would've sounded much better!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0oPW0FkRG
Raditz: “Oh shut up you bald freak! Battle station is a fitting name!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO3gIhBb9v
Nappa: “Hey now! Don't come for my looks! Your freakishly long hair would make anyone want to go bald!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfH8TYBzn0k
Vegeta: “Pipe down boys, save that energy for the sparring session.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjcmbPrLUA
Kakarot nudged his brother's shoulder. Raditz turned to his brother.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtp47DBbb2
Kakarot: “When I was at war with the earthlings, my wife and I referred to our base as the “Battle Station.”’
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrt3vKe7Rk
He quietly mentioned. Raditz smirked.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlmMl3RnvN
Raditz: “I knew you'd understand!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcQbvlonGd
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTiyAlhCbD
Vegeta: “I'm sure Raditz already let you in on some of the details, correct?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenNZ7ygDjD
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAYXN7CGkZ
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgYf7Ua0rw
Kakarot: “Understood. So, where do we begin?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlX7sGCCKVt
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyvlySic0L
Kakarot: “If they don't submit, what happens then?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl4MluIsJD
Nappa: “What is this weirdo babbling about? We kill them of course!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUipolMvzGq
Kakarot: “Is it.. really necessary?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyJCRFKkSE
Nappa: “You can't be serious!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8mWT8IgAK
Vegeta: “Raditz, may I speak with you, in private?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRPaAhM1f6
Raditz: “Yes, prince.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3Tqaq85Yh
The two stepped out for a moment, leaving everyone else in suspense.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNVBPPftPy
Nappa: “Looks like someone's in trouble haha!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOA2ESssYL
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjRILzwxaJ
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARTdmp7osI
Vegeta: “As you wish. I trust you won't let me down.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFe7i8vXxgp
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJOvyJw9F1
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J5IfYUSuE
The group retreated from their meeting room and headed outside. Kakarot caught up to his older brother and spoke with a troubled tone.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoVdN6OGse
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5mk2eAMrS
Raditz: “I'm sure you had to get your hands dirty to conquer your world. Why is this any different?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80sE0ToAVC
Kakarot: “I fought for my freedom, not for meaningless violence!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRl07hkdkmp
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxKjBT4Du5
Kakarot: “Well, it makes sense when you put it that way.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kXTSHoT2G
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuypyluRRU5
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSyDsZV42F
Kakarot: “Now that you mention it, I can't contain the excitement. I heard Vegeta mention something about sparring.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITzf0i4C1P
Raditz: “Oh yes, we have a special room for sparring.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbBpm8nhXu
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nFqqtu3Oj
Raditz: “I see, well, we can spare a few minutes before we depart from this planet. Let's get it on!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7KkG8unyQ
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycicbklEaS
Powerful shock waves swept surrounding rubble into the air. A few more shockwaves shook the area before Kakarot came tumbling to the ground.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡck9CpaFfgV
Raditz: “You're improving faster than I imagined.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJJ9oDVcO3
Kakarot: “Hmph, I can't say it doesn't bother me that you have to hold back just for me to keep up.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1tEZivHIu
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxTmhRO8N3
Kakarot: “What do you have in mind?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUnJTmcCfW
Raditz: “Watch and learn, baby bro!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0j5ekIswcv
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOD133ImZWw
Kakarot: “What was that?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbL7Rt4UYF
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kdeWUfLPa
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5d6OoGbzA
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hekO3tE9f
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtawEORbFxE
Raditz: “You're quite odd for a saiyan if I'm being honest.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSfojzoHYi
Kakarot: “I guess I just feel like I owe it to them after everything we've been through.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOiVNDx0Bt
Raditz: “I'm starting to feel like this dream of peace of yours isn't living up to the expectations you had in mind.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPSmMQSJhD
Kakarot: “You know, I really thought coming here with you guys would have cured this sensation, but I still can't shake the feeling.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6iO1gb4lg
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlSLlklCkl
Kakarot: “If you say so..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7z2shTrDR
“Raditz, Kakarot.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAQXiuMBI9
A voice called out from the scouter on Raditz's eye.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBINrk5ysK
Raditz: “Vegeta, we're on our way! Kakarot, it's time to go.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTJaFh6PBx
Kakarot nodded and followed his brother. They headed to their pods, where the other two saiyans awaited next to their own.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqE4sA8cQYW
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjmD7xS5NO
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqK7aZ4dQ7z
Vegeta: “What the hell? Did the Tuffles lie to us?”

Nappa wiped sweat off of his head.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5CLc2Rqc9
Nappa: “The heat over here is unbearable! It's if we were directly in the sun!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrbNk3U8my
Raditz: “Those schemers must've planned this to buy some time for some counter plan!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Fip7UreyK
Kakarot examined the ground. A few pebbles and some rubble trembled off the ground. He felt a subtle shake.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAsoVIL6EX
Kakarot: “Something's coming from beneath us!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTdg6dIbaM
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouHleGk2ai
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3cPa61dth
The creatures remained in a suspended animation-like state. Vegeta's eyebrow twitched in irritation.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOkpnY8BZt
Vegeta: “These incompetent fools are mocking us!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1RGavUoXN
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbl6uROirq
“Your foot is on my tail!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jvi00J7iP
“Your tail shouldn't be there then!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoR4r1fzWM
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVL0a1jy3q2
Raditz: “These numbskulls are nothing but barbaric creatures that give into their primal urges. They're useless to us!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGIBeukYj9
Vegeta: “Hmph.. Well, not entirely. Kakarot!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTGwvukOhU
Kakarot: “Yes, Vegeta?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCxhPmNa1o
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8wbqS4tUD
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn54WVAlRve
Raditz: “What? Got cold feet all of a sudden?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvyTmW3Znk
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw4LFp9x7b
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcoNrkWRLM
Kakarot couldn't dare to face his brother in the eyes. The guilt he felt knowing Raditz was right was overwhelming.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B7duiqFDp
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpGxHLOUFE
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKX53FNojJ
Vegeta: “You're starting to seem like a real saiyan. Don't get too cocky though, always watch your blind spot.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiueDvFB8N2
Kakarot smiled.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPDO0O04nQ
Kakarot: “Understood!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTzEWxU7pl
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeglwgfiW1e
Vegeta: “What the hell?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YJqOVhb9K
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIRzMHiDZO
Nappa: “Could that be, Amaterazu?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yj6BKHqp1
“I am Modora! The most powerful of the Tatsu race! No one wreaks havoc upon MY planet without getting through me!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyTCVaTP75
Raditz: “Looks like we got ourselves an even larger hot head. He won't do us any better than the rest.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUNmzYN6DM
Kakarot: “I'll fight him!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXErmhzXSHq
Everyone turned to Kakarot in surprise.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrXE2oON5G
Kakarot: “I'm not done fighting! He'll be MY opponent!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYKiEDVHmF

Modora: “You'll be my first victim then, give me your worst!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNEnqnUBX9
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyz5RZ11ib
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurU0pjJppG
Raditz: “Hey, his power level is higher than we anticipated! Kakarot is outmatched!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5eXzH628G
Vegeta: “You might have to step in.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzw7WyReLm
Nappa: “Poor runt, his first big shot is against someone out of his league, hehe, what a shame.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlJiSWp9xr
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2BQHEbtBB
Kakarot: “Come on now, don't back down so soon!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx646lZGaQ
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.

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OhMaBVEGR
Nappa: “That's nonsense! Let me see.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81TOPVFdQb
The elite's scouter scanned the low class warrior, revealing the shocking revelation that his power had shot up drastically.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eRBdQjfmC
Vegeta: “It looks like he's putting on quite the spectacle.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83O6YNRRFi
Raditz watched in disbelief. He questioned the situation, pondering about it in his mind.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4DpXvUKBu
Raditz: “He's not just getting stronger, he's improving too. He never demonstrated this level of proficiency before!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqmEvYE6Xh
Modora huffed, taking a moment to catch his breath. Kakarot used the opportunity to catch a break as well.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdt3ENwl7SJ
Modora: “All that and you still can't finish me, I think it's about time I bury you!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6LOG0fjNv
Kakarot: “So it's come to this point at last. I've been anticipating this moment!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGdxo8rfoP
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQbI2FsbKb
Kakarot: “This will be your funeral!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXtOlgSVrA
Modora lowered his hand, shooting down a burst of fire.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2exT52Emz
Modora: “Deadly incineration!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKgvw877pU
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU9iH7nX4Q
Raditz: “You sly little bastard, looks like you came up with your own move.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8XJ7spvRo
He took a peek at his injuries.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLMYLuFMFW
Raditz: “Your body has already begun its recovery process so soon, that's odd.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bGf0Xlg4O
Kakarot: “I don't know what happened back there, but it was exhilarating! I never knew this is what it meant to be a saiyan.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAkoyUYUiF
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTBXBlCT3b
Kakarot: “I'm proud to be a saiyan!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwlpJfYWAN

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhDhWS3zUg
Kakarot: “Huh?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrzSdfYloG
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWccMwOJKDR
Raditz: “Why you!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8GpFxqxAR
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnzRA6fi3Y
Raditz: “Kakarot! Answer me!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaaB8FN0k7
Kakarot coughed out some blood before opening an eye.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhSx8dJiQ2
Kakarot: “What… What h-happened?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqSK42lDQT
Vegeta: “Save your breath, boy. Get him to the ship, if we make it back in time, he'll be able to make a full recovery.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScEguKUf1v
Raditz: ‘Right!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGjvEXMKct
Raditz carefully lifted his brother and took him aboard.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz78XN4icG
Kakarot: “R-Raditz, am I… gonna be okay?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxK8VvsTEPL
Raditz: “Pipe down little man, you're fine. It's a common occurrence with us.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd4RSKZsWB
Raditz remained composed but his thoughts quickly ate away at him.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvuGtd4Nz2
“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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6n81Ke3x4D
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihKPEaIKGB
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1rH0XbB7S
Raditz: “I'm positive.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIVCrYyetW
Doctor: “Well, it looks like his body has recovered enough to dismiss any urgent treatment.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rTuOA7IIF
Raditz: “I see, that's all then I guess. I'll be making my way out. Make sure he gets everything he needs.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxD4loAwFqZ
Doctor: “I will sir.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7AcaDvzEY
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsolbaOj1dg
Raditz: “You're awake, it's about damn time.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bR92POyMt
Kakarot: “Brother, what happened? I remember defeating Modora and then suddenly I just.. blacked out.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPd2ZTEUmr
Raditz: “You let your guard down and that creature used the chance to leave a nasty mark on you.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqpI87QXV5
Kakarot: “I see. I don't feel anything though.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKFTfzCEgf
Raditz: “That's what's got me confused too.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1J6MvIbDju
Kakarot: “Well, there's no point in breaking our heads over it. Shouldn't this be great? Soon I'll get to join your ranks, we'll fight together as equals!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuTaVMmLIV
Raditz: “Haha! Don't get too ahead of yourself now, you still need more to catch up to me.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7drBF9q3F
Kakarot: “When is our next crusade?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWZ49poGpc
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaasEjID1h
Kakarot: “If that's the case…perhaps we could stay on earth, don't you think? It could make the perfect base!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJlPra1eLs
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwmt2627fc
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIilPggXeBm
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu9l5z8RhM
Kakarot: “Are you saying you never loved a woman?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw53U1uc1LY
Raditz: “Of course not! Saiyans are born for so much more than that, we only mate to breed more warriors. I couldn't care less what happens after that.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKopuA1tcN
Kakarot: “It seems I still have a lot to learn about our traditions huh?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc2PanCcO7

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBy3Wi6Kqe

Kakarot: “We'll be fine, I'll make sure of it.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OfT3ssmpF
Bulma: “I'm not convinced, we've achieved peace and yet you insist on bringing the fight back to us. When does the violence end?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLp1ckpP6A
Kakarot: “When we win.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGdEJyLXwr

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOFitSIcMt

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ54JwKvTlI
Bulma: “It isn't just about you, don't you get it? You have a family now! When did you become so selfish?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HnqslYo9Z
Kakarot: “Is it so much for me to want to live amongst others of my kind?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCP8w5tUG6

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIfK5HSLFb
Kakarot turned away to face the door.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5MrnZ6CXd
Kakarot: “You know I'll always keep you guys safe, but I'm done rejecting my wishes, my calling.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMNxvraogl
He walked out without looking back or showing any interest in doing so.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pJ8aMG7N1

Kakaort: “Come with me, let me introduce you to the others.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIazMSs7xVY
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNa9Kx8i5AN
Beet: “Sir! What's going on over there?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAshRGodpsb
Kakarot: “It's… renovation. Our new family is settling in. It will all be fine when it's over okay?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYW3i5ZLizE
Beet: “But they look scared, Sir.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrFDjy3P8H
Kakarot: “They'll be fine. Humans tend to fear what they don't understand. Our family won't cause any harm, they're here to help this torn planet. You'll understand when you're older.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8CVzyePLK
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3bD31jgQg
Raditz: “Kakarot, we've been waiting for a cool minute now!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuy8AGIZxv
Kakarot: ‘My apologies, I had some other business to attend to. As you all requested, I've brought my boy. Beet, these are the last remaining saiyans. They're like you and I, you'll learn a lot from them as I have.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyXnfOJTlg
Raditz: ‘Well, pipsqueak, come greet the rest of the gang!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuw9bsIG2S
Beet's mood brightened after hearing the comforting voice of his beloved uncle. He rushed to the others, eagerly introducing himself.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqJcGpHzUI

Vegeta: “So, you're the son of Kakarot. He was conceived with an earth woman, am I right?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1zoWF2FPw
Kakarot: “Yes, that's right. That would make him a half blooded saiyan if I'm not mistaken.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDyDVxHupv
Vegeta: “What a shame, he won't have the full might of a pure blooded saiyan, the crossbreeding seems to have been successful however. Earth is the perfect ground to repopulate our race!”

Vegeta looked down at the cheerful boy.

Raditz: “I don't get it, what's so special about that kid for you to demand something so meaningless?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwsOdMq8KR
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfosxeZiyCZ
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince, but I'm not entirely sure if I'm okay with using my nephew as an experiment…”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhKEiIvY0j
Vegeta: “Don't tell me your brother's earthling values are rubbing off on you, Raditz.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Gfa08kSP4
Raditz: “No. Of course not..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqxsrdsiPz
Vegeta: “Then do as I say, prove to me you're deserving of the position I've been offering you.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJRRnfjuPK
Raditz: “I will..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGYQk4AaKP
Raditz turned to his comrades.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzQ3symvCK
Raditz: “I will be taking Beet into the battle chamber. You're all excused to leave.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx1vMqig88
Kakarot: “Hold on! I can't just let you take my son without me!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWU2qzyC4Y
Vegeta: “Calm down, boy. This is the reason I asked to meet him. Besides, it's in our tradition to not question our superiors.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFW6iMw644B
Raditz put his hand on his brother's shoulder.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1TpkPYZVa
Raditz: “He'll be okay, think of it as special training.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0klPZyOefo
Kakarot hesitantly nodded.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLll4GtMZUe
Kakarot: “Go with your uncle, Beet. Have fun, okay?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUd99wSiuK
Beet: “I will, Sir!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuWRFnvi3M
Kakarot: “I'll be outside.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfO3pPgfbep
Beet: “Okay!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBk4sHgcNA
Raditz: “C'mon now, let's go.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnCzmNeKqA
Beet followed his uncle into the training room.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkP1lPj85bQ
Raditz: “That's pathetic! You can do better than that!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZAXFJKkg6
Beet forced his legs up. He wiped blood off of his lips.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmfgPnLp8b
Beet: “I'm going to be strong, like you and Sir!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3Wo3OXd3c
The boy lunged himself forward, giving his uncle everything he had. Raditz smacked him away with a backhand.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluWSfW3j90
Raditz: “You're nothing but a runt, you'll never be like your father.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGl0efR5MkZ
Beet: “Th-That's! …Not trueeee!!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjQ3YhJAQy
Beep! Beep! Beep!!
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OzF9iNBiQ
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7R5jwZWGW
Raditz: “That's… Impossible!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Eh9ANRQoC
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPdoj8cu8l
Raditz: “That's enough, pipsqueak. I'll take you back to your father alright?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbk4vJaXgMl
Beet: “O-Okay.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFpqnpnWBC
Beet collapsed to the ground. Raditz lifted his nephew and returned him to his father.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3eLUVemvK
Kakarot: “What happened?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALa1VumlJx
Raditz: “The boy is fine. Head home Kakarot, take the day off.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8eO025iTI
Kakarot: “What about the settlement? Won't you guys need my assistance? I know this place better than you all.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10klTJD4bC
Raditz: “We can take it from here, just go.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCa3NBX6Lfd
Kakarot: “Fine.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8R5DdGICl
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofRphndLt4
“What could he want with that boy? Should I tell Kakarot?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6G7shgp03
He snapped out of his head upon reaching the Prince.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmr3yxLRseY
Raditz: “Vegeta, I've gotten a proper measure of his strength.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pEsPh0pTx
Vegeta: “What did the scouter say?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrPJI2W2U0
Raditz: “It… It exceeded 10,000..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDGmnVw6qx
Vegeta: “It looks like my suspicions were correct after all.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeExPBancTf
Raditz: ‘What's going on? I don't understand what you're getting out of all this!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEWdaDbg78
Vegeta: “You know it's not tradition to question me, Raditz.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxUEUzdBZo
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIbIrIe56l
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScFGk6TlZ8
Raditz: “I swear on everything, I'll remain loyal to you and only you!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMvmnHobr6
Vegeta: “Good. Keep the following between us then. I had a slight suspicion that the hybrid could actually be STRONGER than a full blood.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ACZNhVrdH
Raditz: “But how is that even possible? With such weak genetics, wouldn't it only bring a saiyan down?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCtOuhO40n
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYH4kdEll02
Raditz: “You mislead the rest to save your reputation then?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATNiSPJJeI
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwGMpvA5CT
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QPri3fJtv
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42P3Z0DGab
Raditz: “Understood.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sTVukBaO3
Vegeta: “You're dismissed.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLqcGxESty
Raditz departed from the room.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5zQimdIXq
“Haaaa”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwSs7XkEN7
An explosion erupted. A warrior with battle armor and a spear went flying from the impact. He slammed to the ground and laid unconscious.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡys0L0JHt4W
Raditz: “Nice one, brother! Don't forget what I taught you.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXRWW9NEAi
Kakarot: “Right.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BKisd82Ix
Kakarot lifted the defeated warrior from his head and blasted a hole through his chest with an energy attack.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlP0reeSzxV
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent. I won't make that same mistake again.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RFtBO5c99
Raditz: “As it should be! Glory comes from victory and victory isn't certain until your opponent is eliminated permanently!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrHwlS5f3K
Kakarot: “A lot of talking, brother! Let's get back to fighting!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPZwwYPuWH
Raditz: “Hehe, you rascal.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwesJmwvI9M
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWHE9bUZyb
Kakarot: “Bulma, I'm home. Prepare me a nice meal, why don't you?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9au1S4Hhm
Bulma: “I made some miso soup earlier, enjoy the leftovers.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxZEiJ4F1Z
Kakarot: “What's with the attitude?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDi15cgQCoZ
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8N6UOJBpg
Kakarot: “We're not having the conversation again!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQ5dBiUYc9
Bulma: “We'll have it as many times as we need to until you get your act right!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb71sJuBTEV
Kakarot stared at her in silence. Beet entered the room, returning from outside. He instantly caught on to the tension between his parents.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRf1HVxe1n
Beet: “Is everything okay?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QqS6UGgQO
Kakarot: “Yeah, we're all good.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4oLsUJYna
He replied, still staring at his clearly upset wife.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyt3T9TMsom
Beet: “I'm not dumb! I know you guys are fighting again! Why? Why can't you guys just get along like before?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNef7LgiGg
Bulma: “Sweetie, we aren't fi-”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qGWwIZpa4
Beet: “You're lying! Stop lying! I miss you, Sir, stay home today, please?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XNnjuT3hl
Kakarot frowned before nodding his head.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqQdxRxmW1
Kakarot: “Fine. Fine, I'll spend the night, okay?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj5L3MKx57
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYrcEzCGQf
Bulma: “You just couldn't help yourself, huh?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk4wthplKv
Kakarot turned around.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zOX7S5SIm
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSRa55XOm3
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0WneUkGxh
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGZDT6fk2v
Kakarot: “I couldn't possibly forget.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcwPBGPwue
Bulma: “We looked out for each other ever since. We loved each other! Where did that go?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfPOKEMbvY
Kakarot remained silent. He simply frowned.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDluXQoHj9q
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOfTeoYNhO
Kakarot: “Hmph… I've recently been wondering why I still bother to stop by here myself.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJU9BBqTah
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCefrowPMJo
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvjja69YVx
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTcjYHARVE
Colonel: “Yes? Prince?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4MJuDLoZy
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRC4Mwgbhu
Colonel: “Understood…Sir.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgYoXy27r0
Kakarot tapped his brother's shoulder.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1DuXh6992
Kakarot: “Are you excited? Brother?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG22kQkunk
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45LTZTUpWz
Kakarot: “Right!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhsHkfyUCA
Vegeta: “Kakarot.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5Vq38QxFu
Kakarot: “Yes?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbZpoHaBVG
Vegeta: “You'll be with Nappa and I.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm5coObH0D
Kakarot: “Oh, w-wow! It is an honor, Prince Vegeta!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaymy8jQJH
Raditz: “Huh? But you said I'd take that role!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2gOzvCsIx
Vegeta: “Kakarot surpassed you a while ago, I'm not taking risks with an inferior saiyan.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjdyF4AjYP
Raditz clenched his fists. He gave his brother a spiteful glare before taking a few breaths.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVfvwSZFkb
Raditz: “As you wish, Prince. I'll take Kakarot's task.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0FLv3ziZh
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoeKbMl6cf
Raditz: “I'll see you all later.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZpwMEDDEu
Kakarot: “Raditz!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkJuD3675e
Raditz turned to his brother.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuykQKVXTh
Kakarot: “Be careful.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5beK5UtyO
Raditz: “Right..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3oc5QbxDD
Raditz took off with his pod.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEURWx7fXL
“Someone is entering the atmosphere!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhl9VorzBs
“Let me take a look.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjRgCC4Bmp
Beep! Beep! Beep!
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8qhfAAixI
“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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOuoZrRpfP
Zarbon approached the landing vehicle. The pod met its destination and out came Raditz from inside.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8IyOVhNH8
Raditz: “Greetings, Zarbon.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpb8L4FsbG
He bowed in respect.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQpmFEXDH5
Zarbon: “At least you know your place.. State your business, saiyan!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSGEc0NM9D
Raditz: “The prince would like to speak with the lord.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnj4tKosmsV
Zarbon: “You know he can't come barging in on such short notice! Especially since our lord is quite busy right now.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HltZ72xGW
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNMlsjrahx
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WtaRV9oYa
Raditz: “As you wish.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhPlIcaszL
Zarbon signaled for him to stand and follow his lead.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5DP3TcFGq
Nappa: “So once he gives the signal, we make our move?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtNV9Mvs1J
Vegeta: “Precisely.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46idEE7HTc
Nappa: “What exactly is the signal?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aEXV9i5k1
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkYMupG8zq
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68ojIeI6lY
Zarbon took his leave.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmwTKClWMr
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnLTiwz79H
Raditz sat patiently, noticing one of the guards peeping at him. He turned his gaze to the guards direction.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuBxWKLI5f
Raditz: “Ya got a problem? Fool!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MWsBqpSno
Guard: “You won't be this bold when Lord Frieza arrives!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1F2mjjCwJH
Raditz chuckled.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oc57vDSDm
Raditz: “Yeah. We'll see.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND4Tomdkfm
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DxutSDW5f
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFZOoxgyGW
Beep! Beep! Beep!
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwAeI9Eoly
Raditz: “He's here…”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDqw9jQwbh
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBZgodGB9n
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCQNlfAUm7
Vegeta: “It's time! Let's end this!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiljIDtWch3
The saiyans commenced their transformation as their ship rapidly approached the planet's atmosphere.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSapRwVjkwy
Zarbon: “I warned you, saiyan!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO02Z5fvSPu
Raditz: “It's too late now, pretty boy! Frieza is finished!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV44wSLxzUV
Dodoria entered the room with a sinister laugh. Raditz’s eyes widened, he felt his soul leave his body for a moment.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3YCGHtJEC
Dodoria: “Surprised to see me?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6rf4YgSoB
Raditz: “N-No! This can't be!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0pOOAa2TB
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggfQerjnJq
Vegeta: “Hehe.. That fool never saw it coming!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpR6qt3jMO
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgdjeBqS1d
Vegeta: “Here lies the foolish emper- What?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WHJlVlGYV
Vegeta desperately searched through the remains.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt29piCQJ59
Nappa: “What's wrong? Vegeta?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGYudxFFkO
Vegeta: “This ship… I-It's a decoy!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdy23nIPG8
Kakarot: “What! That means-”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupGPj3Ugjb
“Quite the bold attempt I must say. You know, I knew you'd turn on me one day, Vegeta.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNxrhh1Txp
Vegeta: “Frieza!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTJh45jY2I
Dodoria: “Looks like your little plan didn't go out as you expected!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLnuKvgrQV
Raditz: “Damn it!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTExguaCuh
Zarbon: “Do us all a favor and don't resist. You know it'll only end up being futile in the end.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vWqnibeYB
Raditz: “I guess I don't got a choice huh?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQkPJgy5C1
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3dqt2ekRD
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagIjxfIxJJ
Vegeta: “No! It's not over! Not yet! We'll just have to destroy you the old fashioned way.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt18NQZI0K7
Frieza: “I'd love to see how that plays out.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqDcGYdRoj
Dodoria: “Rrraaaaa!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtswI9iG2n
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpt7WcXdYSE
Raditz: “Eat this! Weekend!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgk5sx5k9hW
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm09oLpIGI
Dodoria: “What the hell? How did he get so powerful? Something must be wrong!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVI1xgEntg
Zarbon: “Let me check the scouter.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GBAbruJKT
Beep! Beep! Beep!
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35EprthNn1
Zarbon: “N-No way!”

Zarbon: “His power level is 35,000!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnknASqfoQ
Dodoria: “But Raditz has always been a weakling! How is that possible?!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViwm9ktFl9
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuccOjqzy2M
Dodoria: “Oh great, first I get showed up by some low class saiyan, and now I have to work with you. Just my luck.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1GmU8s88E
Zarbon: “I'm not so thrilled to fight alongside someone as repulsing as you either.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59cJv0XpEa
Dodoria: “Whatever, let's get this over with!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZCEN4upqi
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.

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoezDkwFDBv
Dodoria: “Why you!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLORGnTpHnk
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkHdPwjYYa
Raditz: “Got somethin in your eyes?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEO5E7A6eAZ
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.

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7gaMgUVJP
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9TMSccWmU
Frieza: “Haaa!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGjqtaF4yh
The tyrant blew away his surroundings with his explosive power, relieving himself from Vegeta's pressure.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIz94FaTtSt
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtz1SFgErNw
Vegeta: “So you concede to my might?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAULmkMEth

Raditz: “Ggaaahhh!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHbMYphw69
Zarbon crashed his arm into Raditz. He pounded the struggling warrior, knocking blood out of him with each blow. Raditz retaliated with a kick to his face. He leaped into the air and scattered a barrage of ki blasts at his monstrous opponent. Zarbon quickly recovered from the attacks and charged forward, headbutting Raditz in his face. Raditz returned the attack with a headbutt of his own. Their fighting took a short pause.

Zarbon: “Haha! You're starting to wear out, saiyan!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr9hVGAFvC

Raditz detonated a ki blast in front of the 2 of them, creating a blinding smoke cloud. He ascended higher into the air.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam7PRoZIBR
Raditz: “Scatter Shot!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjGS5ECCnz
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.

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynB1w3TTPG

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzG5IY76Wt

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbX2ZUsps7
Raditz: “Frieza's off guard, this is our chance!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcCSvnrCL3

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSth8vWSDG

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsQ3MVdD7m
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.

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dkXZbYrsb
Kakarot: “Look out!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkez57HsKo
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.

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwZVcrMQXc
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfXgbmtAb1
Frieza: “Done playing around yet? Vegeta?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKoL9tCQye
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASH4zv56ws
Raditz: “Double Sunday!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9QXCIb0Rn

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO29MpRBrwN
Frieza: “You again!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfSfOyPSUK
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbB5f4x6AE
Frieza: “You actually made me raise my guard. Interesting.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHTu50e5xt
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.

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn784DfKDit

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTX0oEccVd
Frieza: “You dare lay your hands on me!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2M0o7GO1r
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFGEZvQMFY
Frieza: “This isn't right! I broke you! I felt it in every attack! You shouldn't even be standing!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqErTZOCMuR
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVB6qMq0OEO
Raditz: “Is that really him?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuQejurbO9
Kakarot: “F-Friezaaaa!!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9E2v3BsJvC
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1e31TRQ0a
Frieza: “No! No!! You're… the super saiyan! There's no other explanation for this!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARLJwLHioq
Raditz poked a button on his scouter.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeGmkSLfFD
Raditz: “Vegeta! Is what I'm hearing true? Has Kakarot truly become a super saiyan?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PCPrEld8t
Vegeta was snapped out of a trance.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgalRsma4G8
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPLylmP3Gz
Raditz: “But how does that even happen?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ztNnkwngV
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwtMqyIa34
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp34HcNPesu
Frieza: “I'll just have to wipe you out along with this planet!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zTvKhGi3C
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkakgBnU1R
Vegeta: “Galick Gun…Fire!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5ixCR3BoH
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqh139MCCK

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TGVzfoXPL
A projectile darted to Frieza's head, slightly discombobulating him.

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLkoPjTJUc

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLbf7eN5Dp
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.

825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRycxDF6v1A
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3y5WI0QkVH
Frieza: “You… That look… It's starting to seem familiar..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFe1aNu1Wq1

Kakarot: “My name.. is Kakarot! And in the name of the saiyan race, I'm going to send you straight to hell!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yXjxYNJbI
Kakarot finished Frieza with a blast that disintegrated every last remnant of him.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20LT9mV4ZO
Kakarot: “It's done…”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdXX9xtlz3
Raditz: “He he he, Ha! Ha! Ha! We've won!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2FjQ0dBFO
Vegeta ascended into the air.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwnd1uUKdp
Vegeta: “Everyone! Listen up! Frieza is dead! Head back to the ship! I'll finish the rest!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxcm7CI4AG
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsBJ71kCe7
Colonel: “Prince Vegeta! What about the survivors? I thought the plan was to end every last one!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39TuHetsYT
Vegeta: “Of course, I've left them a little present.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX2hmaorhb
The remaining soldiers of the Frieza force watched as a small shard of ki sank into the planet.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9uVxdcSHM
Vegeta: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yMR6NWKUD
The planet exploded leaving no trace of its existence behind. The men cheered, the Colonel shook the prince's hand.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lPygvYem6
Colonel: “It has been an honor serving you.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv70OQXPT0I
Vegeta: “As promised, you'll be with us from now on.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASldv6MhRb
Colonel: “And the rest of the Tuffles?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiwTdsZJTp
Vegeta: “I have a purpose in mind for those inferior people.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheIepUd9lK
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCt79cD9eeI
Kakarot: “That power I felt earlier, I don't understand it, brother. Normally these experiences are exhilarating, but this, it was maddening, terrifying even.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8GKUOaFwL
Raditz: “I don't quite understand it either, but that power avenged our people. You've fulfilled your destiny, right?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEeOhsPeHw
Kakarot: “Yeah… I guess I did.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuv1n3blHZ
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmI9uRPSu9F
Raditz: “Good day, Prince, how may I be of service to you today?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuKeAiYAjK
Vegeta: “Your brother put on quite the spectacle yesterday, didn't he?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnyFUIKP5N
Raditz: “Yes… He did.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6YJfhWoO8
Vegeta: “It doesn't take a genius to realize he's left us both behind.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFX7W3xdG5f
Raditz: “Yeah, it is quite apparent.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWnNWQllfI
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ993ujX13Xu
Raditz: “What are you suggesting? Vegeta?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcbcioqwPg
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJxywv2Ogm
Raditz: “Considering your competition, your threats don't mean much right now. So enlighten me, why is that path doomed for failure?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28cgpz3uM8
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oqggeGo0m
Raditz stared at the floor, lost in his thoughts.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLj57atBqUr
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaP0RyRoOy
Raditz: “W-What do you propose? Even if I went along with it, we can't stop him.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdUwaWsz9i
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXViyMmYLy
Raditz: “I won't fail you, Vegeta. I think I know how to get him off our backs.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15MUsgjtHz
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt2L4aSAtN
Kakarot pondered deeply, looking into the dim, cloudy sky.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx0X22Pvh7
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90Tq9JT2yc
He looked at his fist in shame.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRfZV3JC8u
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAjxEq1kJr
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHNW48grLq
A sudden static came from Kakarot's scouter.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6MWbOo1Ns
“Bro—-er! You ne—-ed to come! Q—--ck!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7LDWmASdQ
Kakarot: “Raditz! Is that you!? Raditz! What's wrong?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyW3ge9qj3
Raditz: “I— tried to save th—m!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYbBc60SfG
Kakarot: “Where are you?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5OyILrFMI
Raditz: “Y—our place!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCyC6h30HP
Kakarot: “I'm on my way!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06AFset33Z
Kakarot anxiously rushed back to his home. The sky roared as a thunderstorm broke out. Vicious rain drops poured all over the land.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmSiLFMp0q
Kakarot: “Has one of Frieza's loyal followers found our base? He's probably seeking revenge against me!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoCNvNJiJS
Kakarot arrived in mere moments. Raditz waited for him outside. Most of Kakarot's home was battered up and crumbling apart.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VgKOjQCQf
Kakarot: “Brother! What happened? Where's Bulma and Beet?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRXUOy5Ghu
Raditz had a cut on his cheek and some of his armor had been damaged. He took a moment to catch his breath.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgPzITsRAh
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..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcs0b2hfSqS
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFXznNY2mZ
Kakarot: “No…”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5lDepVb4X
Raditz limped behind him, putting his hand on his brother's shoulder.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0Yr8q1uxn
Raditz: “I'm terribly sorry, Kakarot. I found them like this by the time I arrived. I couldn't save them…”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVX3wz1yol
Kakarot: “No, no, no, no…. They should have come after me.. no..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqUs8Olk9E
He fell to his knees, and held his son in his arms.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E53BII8w6
Kakarot: “B-Beet… I should've been there, to protect you.. both of you.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oQoWwt9jr
Raditz: “It's a real shame… he cried out for his “Daddy” in his last moments you know.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkPwzpDFiH
Kakarot: “I wasn't there for him..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhMyr40i80
Kakarot froze for a moment. His eyes widened.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIja3G2nxo
Kakarot: “You… You said you found them like this when you got here..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JpX2PB2wu
Raditz: “Let this be my final lesson to you brother. Trust no one.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8SE5mx6FW
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvSYeVhQ3O
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXzhLkWYq2
Kakarot: “H-How.. c-ccould.. youuu..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuB7VbgQbwK
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡql6OZ8H67k
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeP81pbrDF
Raditz: “It's done, sir.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwocaONWDN
Vegeta: “What did you do?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaXosbXzVu
Raditz: “I got rid of him and his boy for good. They will never get in our way again.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9gWJweUPZ
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmmkv6aLCV
Raditz: “It is an honor.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMDFq51ryo
Raditz bowed down in respect.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHRM6zMvm7
“Prince Vegeta! Our security has been breached! They're headed your wa-”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMHpZ53zNU
The signal was cut off in a violent manner, before they had time to process the warning, something smashed through the entrance.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktIurCUht2
Kakarot: “Y-You!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgPtmzqESH
Raditz: “Impossible! He should've succumbed to his wounds!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Sd0oXbRxd
Kakarot took heavy breaths and struggled to stand.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6W28PFMtS
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoij2pqSRSX
Raditz: “Right!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwjKJauyCs
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiwZUBIAQc
Vegeta: “Nappa was a fool that let his emotions cloud his judgment.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Y2xYbMPv6
Kakarot: “He was your friend!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawwLC6i4UV
Vegeta: “And he paid the price for it.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANutXDTXML
Kakarot: “I l-looked up to you guys!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnuY6l1S2P
Tears ran down his face.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdClb9S9uH
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?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnUe5ajaog
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeGZdaLPkH
Kakarot: “Haaaaa!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPU7rAMgpKr
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d9yFrnErf
Raditz: “Vegeta!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MlbLCqgIF
Kakarot rushed Raditz, tackling him to the ground. He pounded his face a few times before grabbing a hold of his neck.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyv1VthhBX
Kakarot: “Why!? We're brother's! Why would you do this! You meant everything to me!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOVcK4zMLw
Raditz smirked.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGRxmNt14c
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtv3LRC6ey
Kakarot: “So none of this ever really mattered, huh? I should've killed you back in our fight with Frieza!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9QMY9lTzr
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRjvMShN99
Kakarot: “Ha! Ha! Haa!! None of this matters huh? It never did! Nothing does!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFq6tpqR8p
He pounded the ground.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPeMZHB3xh
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzRektobCh
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfJQsXd9YM
Kakarot: “To fight!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m22bYw1g9
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYKhY1M4t8
Raditz: “B-Brother.. You w-wouldn't kill me.. right? I'm…all you have left.. p-please let me make things right..”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjQwB0OxSn
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent, remember?”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaN9HJ3KC8G
Kakarot chuckled and removed his fist. He blasted him away. Raditz's lifeless course collapsed to the ground.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7u3Aye6XXB
Vegeta: “Big Bang attack!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLY22Groo8
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iNy4pvOin
Vegeta: “Gaahh!!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEFE1xiHqK
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEEls0IvBf
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDJDGV96qg
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.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1S7pAXfA8w
Vegeta: “Wait!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRtR1YVUzH
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.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGs3bBax1t
Kakarot: “After years of exploration and combat, I've finally made the time to gather them all together.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ441SRgQQ02
The seven dragon balls glowed in union before the mighty shenron burst out from within them.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLomkWbKFMq
Shenron: “Speak your wish.”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U67YZWMfS
Kakarot put his hand on a special vehicle he had beside him.
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnLwQ0VAnC
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!”
825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAyG6z2TjN
Shenron: “As you wish."
