Frieza: “I almost feel some guilt having to do this, I'm aware you were one of our more loyal ones, Bardock.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARe4wEFs8mW
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0YOJBHpbVc
Zarbon: “My lord, shall I dispose of this trash?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6Q1tVVntQg
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALbmffhFCt4
Frieza departed from his space pod, heading towards Bardock directly. They came face to face, only a few feet apart.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6rRnD6G57P
Bardock: “Haaaa!!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHV5hOflnRk
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWQKGGRdRLg
Frieza: “All your efforts couldn't even leave a mere scratch, but how dare you lay your filthy hands on me!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA2ms22WYU7j
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYMTThkUxHZ
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvJnXGFcPdg
A small pod zoomed past them from a considerable distance. Bardock watched it leave and smirked.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjpWzR4XDP0
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnuE29AUH0m
Frieza: “Well if that's your dying wish, then I shall consider it.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyqAo0TNqC0
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUZD3BV8YQb
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAp2djtRIs84
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1XxFivyrKQ
Frieza: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAoMovvPzyYG
Bardock: “Go Kakarot…. Be the warrior I never could and show the world who you are!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATqHAUQFqjf
Bardock, along with his planet, perished becoming one with the empty, infinite space.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAtYo6gpZM89
“Your alliance has fallen, Commander. Teaming up with the government couldn't save you, you're out of options.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWjIArsWuYN
Commander Red: “You're..You're a monster!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzzRFXpc07K
“The world brought this upon itself when it decided to turn on me and reject me. This war was all because of you!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUkh17tUPWM
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7KQ6Bvl5IP
Kakarot crushed the severed head of an android that he held, with his bare hands.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1JpzckMAje
Kakarot: “This world will never throw me aside again! For it now belongs to me! Kakarot!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMTzqNz5gTZ
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANACXLLyyLEKV
“Damn it! The signal hasn't returned! Where are you? Kakarot!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5cwk959Dg8
Kakarot gently landed from the air.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5HokLG525Q
Kakarot: “Bulma, it's over.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVNEhJrqTU3
Bulma rushed towards him and greeted him with a tight hug.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAwp5KXwN3KZ
Bulma: “I thought something had happened to you! Your signal cut off!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEpKHZcqCUr
Kakarot returned the affection before acknowledging her concern.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAOl3uvCBgU0
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeyK085aDf7
Bulma looked down and sighed. Her grip on Kakarot loosened. Kakarot frowned, noticing her discomfort.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvgqhKsTuNH
Kakarot: “What's wrong?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApUz25hhRJs
Bulma: “I'm grateful for our freedom, but don't you wish this all could have been different?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAII3KWYZzU3
Kakarot: “I don't understand, what are you referring to?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWzdy2oOoJW
Bulma: “We destroyed many lives for the better of our own. I'm not sure I'm allowed to celebrate this victory…”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAwkImT5l6Ef
Kakarot gently pulled her towards him, holding her by her hand.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJRHQC9vDsR
Kakarot: “What matters today is that we get to live in peace. We can have a future together at last.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAt9jI8frrud
Bulma: “Yeah.. I guess you're right. The world is our's now, where do we even begin?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVuDEfsjyYP
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHfqzYDEIYF
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGzRDhSG68j
Kakarot: “Here it is, just as you asked, the largest boar I could find.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANArf1JeEuEZp
Kakarot put down the carcass of the freshly hunted boar.
218Please respect copyright.PENANANealHWwkNs
Bulma: “Hey! You're getting blood on the floor! Leave it somewhere else!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAM2EXW2UdWW
Kakarot: “Jeez, fine I'll leave it outside in the meantime.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxQddFm3x6H
Bulma shifted her focus back to her personal project she had been working on.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAmLgyY7CLPa
Kakarot: “You've been cooped up here for a while, what exactly are you making?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxtEDOVQU3C
Bulma: “It's a stretch, but have you ever wondered what lies beyond our world? Not just the galaxy but our universe as well.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAras7B5p3id
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcr21ZMXsKD
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAi8Z2FbxzF0
Kakarot: “So you're building a sort of vehicle I assume? What's that going to do?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzf1ocOJx4W
Bulma: “You could tell it's a vehicle from this small progress alone?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8ACpBNJsfu
Kakarot: “That's clearly an engine, not one from any current technology we have though. Okay..I confess, I occasionally tinker with your stuff.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApL9S6Ovcxo
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6jlZpQyZaV
Kakarot: “You're still bent on this..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA4GyYcw4NOA
Bulma: “I just can't fathom why it doesn't bother you as much! Don't you feel any remorse for what we did?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZG12BB5rMG
Kakarot: “We did what we had to, I took no joy in it, but it's what had to be done.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAokQDCdzHNI
Bulma sighed and dropped her head.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAsTDeYS19ZN
Bulma: “I should get to cooking that boar, I could use the break.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANABIsnTeQ5V5
Kakarot: “Hm… Where's Beet?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMtfvDuvCgg
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAOfVdOIp2vE
Kakarot: “Looking for a good hunt I bet, I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJw4Jl6AXnN
Beet: “Haaa!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXP7QL6xZPb
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7cD0XQLqvW
Beet: “Darn! I should've picked a smaller one to challenge!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeqduOflDIB
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAqVc18HT7FB
Kakarot: “You've still got a lot to learn boy.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlEIvEOwdrq
Beet: “You made it just in time sir!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANArRdQ7snF1M
Kakarot put his son down and faced the dinosaur.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAqascs9JRzg
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-”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVfLycYl134
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlTc6ZsLtjg
Kakarot: “ …..If you take away its tail, it won't have anything left to defend itself with.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAOqUYtTmewP
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANACpPmOZN9JL
Kakarot: “Enough”!
218Please respect copyright.PENANAqkk66bu1oe
Beet: “Huh?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5Bcf4O6QFe
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJaXR4vSNxk
Beet: “But sir, you've let me hunt animals before! What's so different now?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEf1N8xQWy7
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAL9E17eqtNK
Beet: “I'm sorry, sir.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAn4z626U5CE
Kakarot: “Don't sweat it, let's head home already, we've got to help your mom prepare.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkJ0HPnZP86
Beet: “Right!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAr4f5gszRRh
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzWoPocldsh
Bulma: “Honey, you're acting strange.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5YUhcPqTpO
Kakarot: “I think my stomach is just upset from the boar. Maybe you didn't cook it right.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAq9Jss0CgfP
Bulma: “Hey! If you're going to be ungrateful then maybe I'll just let you starve next time!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5OJVsceEtl
Kakarot: “Nevermind.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANACnU5S02Z3q
Bulma's irritation dissipated, lowering her tone into a more gentle manner. She reached out and placed her hand on his shoulder.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAsgnM4boJkd
Bulma: “If something is bothering you, you can always tell me.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHnCm3mLq3S
Kakarot: “.... Doesn't this ever get stale to you? A similar routine every single day?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAD6csloqenb
Bulma: “I get to spend the day with you and Beet, we finally have the peace we always wanted, that's enough for me.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhcBVawJNJU
Kakarot: “I just think we could be doing more. I could be doing more. Is this really where my life peaks?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIzLe1blSGJ
Bulma: “Is it so wrong to simply settle down and enjoy the family you've built?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAu7q8UZtOmA
Kakarot: “Perhaps helping Beet with his studies is getting to me.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5UQhptXAU4
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9CWOJMWMsu
Kakarot: “Yeah.. I'll just sleep it off.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZN67fdtXEa
Bulma: “I love you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAqv7Hf5blKl
Kakarot: “I love you too.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFaLtpEOx7j
Somewhere on a nearby planet, an unforgettable nightmare was taking place. Three giant apes wreaked havoc upon the inhabitants of this world.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHWQgCOxTLh
“We have no other option, it's time we surrender.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9KXdboEIvq
“But my lord! We've already lost so many! We can't give in to their chaos when we've gone this far!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAj3mWraBbvH
“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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3KgMqxWqpM
Colonel: “On it, my lord.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyH8cdB72hB
The Colonel clicked on a button on a device he had strapped to his ear. He hesitated to speak before giving his final order.
218Please respect copyright.PENANABWC4juSAUD
Colonel: “Stand down boys, it's over..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnhBg1zuBg1
The tension settled down as the apes reverted back into their natural forms.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAuq2m7KL5Ih
“I was starting to hope they'd just let us destroy all of them.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8kzMU9tTci
The king himself confronted the deadly trio.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFIKhpld1VI
“King Tuffle, about time you come to your senses.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARAHNPaKOvW
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAezqLipZLUm
“Hand me the device on your eye.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjTn0TqoozU
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA34HGllSebP
Beep! Beep! Beep!
218Please respect copyright.PENANA2v4UfupgPU
“It works just how the rumors said they would. With this technology, tracking frieza's movements will be a breeze.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALTt672t67c
“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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATNZ5WGprTc
Raditz: “Yes, it's about time I pay him a visit!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJbS32a2NfU
Bulma: “Pass me the wrench, Honey!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANArEeoEnu7SF
Kakarot: “Give me a minute, I'm fixing something up over here.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANABAMVHORMzJ
Kakarot twisted a bolt with the wrench before handing it over.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJiloYHnGII
Bulma: “Thanks! It's kind of weird seeing you use these tools when you're strong enough to use your bare hands.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAT4vfuKl3wg
Kakarot: “I guess it's just more comfortable this way, it also helps me stop myself from accidentally breaking something.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAz5aclytFVG
Bulma chuckled.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkbItDFTsn4
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANADUHnXU3Trg
Kakarot: “It helps me relax, and if you really want to do this, then I'll support you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhMvz1BTWuZ
Bulma: “Where did this sweet attitude suddenly come from?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApOWdDqXH40
Beet: “Momm!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9kn1ll2TQj
Bulma: “Hold that thought-”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlfFXnmJBj4
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9jbc14jNVI
Bulma: “My husband won't answer to you!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZZ8l7c9dFp
He rushed outside to inspect the commotion at hand.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAuFneX8Ed0t
Raditz: “There you are, Kakarot. This pesky woman was making this more complicated than it had to be.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfSMseGnm9Q
The saiyan stood his ground. He gently pushed his family behind him and confronted the strange visitor.
218Please respect copyright.PENANANm4zDASSB4
Kakarot: “Who are you? And how do you know my name?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJvppgej6xE
Raditz approached his oblivious sibling.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1mSf6zJwOt
Raditz: “There's no reason to be hostile-”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnEc02i5o9E
Kakarot swung his fist towards Raditz's face. The saiyan moved his head out of the way with ease.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzL48TMeWhp
Raditz: “You're testing my patience, Kakarot!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvyzBq7jwTo
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAd8fTSpMkGf
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAbYpypD8IPx
Kakarot: “Enough!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkyelc00pBy
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAm9xt2sZUzh
Raditz: “Your attacks are not only slow, but predictable as well. You have the natural talent but you lack the proper training.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVgKUGxzPbw
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANATPXqRbLt99
Kakarot: “I couldn't even see him get behind me!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAo1D2z8Adre
Kakarot wiped blood off of his lip as he struggled to get up off of the ground.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6YNiqSMXwx
Beet: “Sir!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAqyH8gpdTLq
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfYtBlNuoIf
Bulma: “Beet!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9lhNPO5GhP
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyjkgSLLkYE
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAawe2PX89UY
Raditz: “Enough! You're stepping far out of your place! Fool!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHZJOumb1bV
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEuovfiFJxu
Raditz: “You're quite the hot headed bastard, little brother.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZUqiAUSvh1
Kakarot: “What? Brother?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAY4uP2NTspc
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJMxbWrb1BM
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAaZLeBzAlyX
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkmDKWWMB76
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAsDoeWpkbMM
Raditz: “Why do you even care? Those scum tossed you aside when you needed them. Whatever happens to them shouldn't concern you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANASAbL1WUOKJ
Kakarot: “Why are you here? Brother.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6slBQ0bcwh
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdBSX9E9TID
Kakarot: “Recruit me for what?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAltOjQV33wb
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVRJijUfCkD
Kakarot: “Forgive me, brother, but I can't do it.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJJFjQMn1d6
Raditz: “Huh? Did you not just hear me? He took everything from us! His death must be by our hands!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUMJLoGL6iC
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyNpQs90ckv
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFqzPxrO0an
Kakarot turned to his wife, awaiting her approval. Bulma looked away and sighed for a moment before speaking up.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAof3l8N7itN
Bulma: “Just no more fighting between you two, got it?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKUEmGbn1nS
Raditz: “You have my word.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANASGhbC0FpIe
Beet sat on a chair, pressing some ice against his cheek.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHE2rniaOKK
Beet: “You hit really hard uncle!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAA1A3PZkpI2
He said in a mix of irritation and excitement.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAe7bX5aClIv
Raditz: “Hehe, that's saiyan strength for you, brat!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAthUEgX9SdU
Beet: “First Sir and now you, everyone is stronger than me! Well, except mom.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALODabHzuMe
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAD6tGw4h7YA
Beet: “Heck yeah!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnVkBskokr0
Raditz chuckled.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAekvOtqGxRX
Beet: “You've left that plate sitting there for a while now, uncle. Aren't you going to pick it up?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhHTKLvHkgl
Raditz: “Why would I do that? Isn't that what your mother is here for?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQTlRldrDkd
Beet: “Well, my parents say it's good manners to pick up after yourself once you're done eating.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANANczpaU86JA
Raditz: “You earthlings have bizarre customs.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAj6UocA0l1o
Bulma: “Beet! It's bed time, you got school tomorrow!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAw2gbgOmxCD
Beet: “But mom! It's still early, I wanna talk to uncle Raditz!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgADRrNkS7H
Bulma: “I said get to bed! Now!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWaXs3okk0Z
Beet: “Sorry uncle, I gotta go.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzYU8lZg1AC
Raditz: “Don't sweat it, kid, listen to your mother.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyuojflGQuc
Beet marched into his room. Bulma pulled Kakarot close to her, speaking to him in a soft voice.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGlmZgCN5je
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAx0k6UmoV0B
Kakarot: “I’ll be fine, you go rest.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIeVkA05lzo
They shared a kiss before parting ways. Kakarot approached his brother. They sat together in the living room, sharing an awkward silence.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEzYcwci9ZK
Raditz: ‘I see you got yourself a tough woman, little brother. Hehe, just how us saiyans like em!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhmXNMXt3c1
Kakarot: “That explains a lot..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyBvd3tkavZ
Raditz took a deep breath.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkoBttmpIhi
Raditz: “Follow me outside, little brother.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJEyRTkzi5l
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgGFX4vxrPR
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAwM0vHedgoQ
Kakarot looked down at his fist in shame.
218Please respect copyright.PENANApu0M39TquX
Raditz: “You feel it don't you, a calling greater than this piss poor excuse of a life you live.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5Ivq2eNtC1
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAohQ5XaRxhj
Raditz: “That's your saiyan spirit, your saiyan pride! Take advantage of it, it's your greatest weapon.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALFg3lrqCtx
Kakarot looked out into the starry, night sky.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAAmX83wa9kU
Kakarot: “How many of us are left out there?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkCzMQlxOEV
Raditz: “Including you and I, there's four.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzD7ORuJrOx
Kakarot: “By any chance, is one of them our father?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANANdoedvuN9P
Raditz: “I'm afraid not.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZsP4UoQhC9
Kakarot: “Did you know him?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHyWbsCLXgb
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhc9AP4tMuY
Kakarot: ‘Yeah… Maybe I do.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAu8g0PoMr81
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7q4nd6eofU
Kakarot: “The prince?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8w3STagdRX
Raditz: ‘I'll fill you in tomorrow, go rest, we have a long day ahead of us.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnM4qVQWzEF
They descended from the sky and retreated back inside to sleep. The day couldn't have come sooner as Raditz prepared to depart.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZvm0bDNVWO
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAn9QUVXTIha
Kakarot: “You don't understand, this is my fight. That tyrant has to pay for what he did to my people.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzgKaAAIqxJ
Bulma: “They're not your people! They're colonizers! You're not like them!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlm6PVWz0j2
Kakarot: “….”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJCaRopG22K
Bulma: “We're your people! Beet, me, our friends from the city!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxyT5xB3dI6
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0MN7xEFupw
Bulma hesitated to reply.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAd9aVl5DCcC
Kakarot: “Please, let me have this. I wanted a greater purpose, and I feel like this is it. I promise I'll return safely.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcaywCbWtCE
Bulma: “Please, be careful, Kakarot.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0jntpzMVIp
The pair shared a quick kiss before separating. Beet rushed to his father.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlcmTvvmrNF
Beet: “Sir!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAit7w1JpEsn
He came face to face with his father.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjHC4cedgFu
Beet: ‘Sir, please be back soon. I'll miss you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfTiq875D6C
Kakarot gently patted his son's head and crouched to face him directly.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkhgUDC67UR
Kakarot: “I'll be back before you know it, listen to your mother and look after her for me, okay?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdhVXlmPsFC
Beet: “Yes! Sir.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWIybOaFRVo
Kakarot retreated back to his brother.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGhDphyu3id
Raditz: “Are you ready?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAL9l8v5b3S5
Kakarot: “Yeah, take me to the others.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAOjLle3zFhK
Raditz: “It was a pleasure meeting you all, I'll bring him back in one piece haha!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYcidYp29ah
The brothers entered their pods, taking off into the vast space. Raditz communicated with his brother through a radio device within their pods.
218Please respect copyright.PENANADEgJHq4LLp
Raditz: “It's more comfortable than it looks huh?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhWUvOmyQmj
Kakarot: “Definitely. Tell me, brother, what are the others like?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPHlPWVnDoD
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAOx0gcfnrhw
Kakarot: “They sound amazing.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgPCeNkzLld
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.’
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlcsEgwyTWT
Kakarot: “I can't deny, I am a bit excited.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAv4kHdkiGUc
Raditz: “That's the spirit!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANASRa3FDzpER
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkm1WCVKowH
Kakarot: “You must be the prince, it's an honor to meet you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALlAb6oTltw
Vegeta: “You knew me before I even got to introduce myself, quite bizarre.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKCEPQaRTUM
Kakarot: “I guess the introduction was unnecessary, from just taking a look at you, I sensed it.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAv3fwwr3I2F
The prince glanced at the humble warrior, before kicking his face, landing him flat on his back.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAu8rTy9SJqk
Vegeta: “Stand up, boy. We're all warriors, are we not? Have some pride, don't ever lower your head to no one!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA19nk2VO7CO
Nappa: “Looks like the rookie is off to a bad start! Haha!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAM15LkXj3W7
Kakarot rubbed his face, he was confused for a brief moment but soon understood the prince's intentions and abided to his command.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYGnBcDdVTM
Vegeta: “Follow us, we'll fill you in inside the… battle station.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7gI3KwDh4s
The prince hesitated.
218Please respect copyright.PENANApjbSX97cnv
Vegeta: “Remind me again why we went with that name?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAW2hXrfpLx0
Nappa: “Haha, you see Raditz, I told you “Court Room” would've sounded much better!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3ba9EGjuaC
Raditz: “Oh shut up you bald freak! Battle station is a fitting name!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApC3Rx0mtCI
Nappa: “Hey now! Don't come for my looks! Your freakishly long hair would make anyone want to go bald!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAwfG9W2t66m
Vegeta: “Pipe down boys, save that energy for the sparring session.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdLG1CnzGzY
Kakarot nudged his brother's shoulder. Raditz turned to his brother.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAksinj6Nkpb
Kakarot: “When I was at war with the earthlings, my wife and I referred to our base as the “Battle Station.”’
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkooUDee8V1
He quietly mentioned. Raditz smirked.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAtVbLypUnIM
Raditz: “I knew you'd understand!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYNAdR6wrWg
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANApwqX43LtDn
Vegeta: “I'm sure Raditz already let you in on some of the details, correct?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnH5uRPnuDl
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAifmB1zBgkJ
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5IYGbWRbAr
Kakarot: “Understood. So, where do we begin?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARBstAhIRQt
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUGWLjkCUtq
Kakarot: “If they don't submit, what happens then?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGcJFYi1U5m
Nappa: “What is this weirdo babbling about? We kill them of course!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMQspNFut6P
Kakarot: “Is it.. really necessary?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATfqn7r5AFP
Nappa: “You can't be serious!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANABda5U7qAfS
Vegeta: “Raditz, may I speak with you, in private?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKrik7KNqgW
Raditz: “Yes, prince.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9YzySpQl4S
The two stepped out for a moment, leaving everyone else in suspense.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQB2aE7Rzxm
Nappa: “Looks like someone's in trouble haha!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHI3jSQRxyS
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARkHb4Zs88r
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAH9uNzCzP4G
Vegeta: “As you wish. I trust you won't let me down.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdoCDJX2G0e
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAuBg2kp36zI
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHVoDdxpQYy
The group retreated from their meeting room and headed outside. Kakarot caught up to his older brother and spoke with a troubled tone.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdo3bJq1xJm
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVKxillzmHX
Raditz: “I'm sure you had to get your hands dirty to conquer your world. Why is this any different?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAL6UHmEUphh
Kakarot: “I fought for my freedom, not for meaningless violence!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANADhDrAfymvV
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3CbVMlRXY2
Kakarot: “Well, it makes sense when you put it that way.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANACCZHTa1wH4
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAf4ZoCxSR4Z
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXNfi614J4w
Kakarot: “Now that you mention it, I can't contain the excitement. I heard Vegeta mention something about sparring.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAsxjHgfUwnJ
Raditz: “Oh yes, we have a special room for sparring.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzbrbpW3qIQ
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApqR05nxNhA
Raditz: “I see, well, we can spare a few minutes before we depart from this planet. Let's get it on!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7g33BfHquh
218Please respect copyright.PENANABKDdEfiaxn
Powerful shock waves swept surrounding rubble into the air. A few more shockwaves shook the area before Kakarot came tumbling to the ground.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjkar7iuxm7
Raditz: “You're improving faster than I imagined.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAiliN7tkGJG
Kakarot: “Hmph, I can't say it doesn't bother me that you have to hold back just for me to keep up.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAE7GsLcf4Lu
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFx5E3NsO69
Kakarot: “What do you have in mind?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAsciB0QzkdF
Raditz: “Watch and learn, baby bro!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlFtBGa4tiB
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANANUsRbp1iIi
Kakarot: “What was that?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALZ78CjsqTT
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAOH7IkKc9jG
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAf5v8pX95fj
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIWEtNwP5zo
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyy0RQOuEPT
Raditz: “You're quite odd for a saiyan if I'm being honest.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhLBEYog1A8
Kakarot: “I guess I just feel like I owe it to them after everything we've been through.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPiMsEryWBi
Raditz: “I'm starting to feel like this dream of peace of yours isn't living up to the expectations you had in mind.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALQSgfbbgSJ
Kakarot: “You know, I really thought coming here with you guys would have cured this sensation, but I still can't shake the feeling.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0YzvID6eId
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAd71bGU1tHt
Kakarot: “If you say so..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANArKmNn8JTTE
“Raditz, Kakarot.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATntEayiQCF
A voice called out from the scouter on Raditz's eye.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAbdrp7vTnYd
Raditz: “Vegeta, we're on our way! Kakarot, it's time to go.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0HWznPUqwK
Kakarot nodded and followed his brother. They headed to their pods, where the other two saiyans awaited next to their own.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQlqS5fjj2j
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKXY4Bdjurb
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnNi3AgWRCT
Vegeta: “What the hell? Did the Tuffles lie to us?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAftFOS5hBMM
Nappa wiped sweat off of his head.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAmIpiO1F6CF
Nappa: “The heat over here is unbearable! It's if we were directly in the sun!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA4jdWTscBJv
Raditz: “Those schemers must've planned this to buy some time for some counter plan!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAT9QJX1RndZ
Kakarot examined the ground. A few pebbles and some rubble trembled off the ground. He felt a subtle shake.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZPk9hMEApA
Kakarot: “Something's coming from beneath us!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXOLdNTcZex
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAekAczymApp
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA69vIDt28Gt
The creatures remained in a suspended animation-like state. Vegeta's eyebrow twitched in irritation.
218Please respect copyright.PENANASvBWVfMUEL
Vegeta: “These incompetent fools are mocking us!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5gwLgJ0NVJ
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANADszoCLAYoY
“Your foot is on my tail!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZXVsxl2XAB
“Your tail shouldn't be there then!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1YMyhuoBLh
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKuQdG8GnML
Raditz: “These numbskulls are nothing but barbaric creatures that give into their primal urges. They're useless to us!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxLMUXLa1Co
Vegeta: “Hmph.. Well, not entirely. Kakarot!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxCytfSgrIk
Kakarot: “Yes, Vegeta?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAs5XU1qE4rc
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAmHdLcr86PP
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzx0YBERwBq
Raditz: “What? Got cold feet all of a sudden?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATf8hfwxnVn
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAS2omcuC57p
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7SViulflnO
Kakarot couldn't dare to face his brother in the eyes. The guilt he felt knowing Raditz was right was overwhelming.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAw49rnu7RX0
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAslDHocrotN
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYqT5iPXSef
Vegeta: “You're starting to seem like a real saiyan. Don't get too cocky though, always watch your blind spot.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAiYjUHcNrW5
Kakarot smiled.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgeT3rPGP2F
Kakarot: “Understood!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAua7nWfvuIE
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAN3I1FZCqKN
Vegeta: “What the hell?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnBmGQIf2Zt
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAS0saT4RUgA
Nappa: “Could that be, Amaterazu?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAAivJkmmZrK
“I am Modora! The most powerful of the Tatsu race! No one wreaks havoc upon MY planet without getting through me!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIEdQQNlLH7
Raditz: “Looks like we got ourselves an even larger hot head. He won't do us any better than the rest.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUv8VUViT9q
Kakarot: “I'll fight him!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAR8EzoYVhkH
Everyone turned to Kakarot in surprise.
218Please respect copyright.PENANADKsisQcUUh
Kakarot: “I'm not done fighting! He'll be MY opponent!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIB8Nqn33Hr
Vegeta chuckled.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6MsaXeVT67
Vegeta: “Go ahead, boy, make us proud.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIdfO9sRZH2
Modora: “You'll be my first victim then, give me your worst!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZwS7BOOmt1
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANASF2fscbHHx
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVgd80WwXYk
Raditz: “Hey, his power level is higher than we anticipated! Kakarot is outmatched!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAO9HUWZESaz
Vegeta: “You might have to step in.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5O2fN6Y1yJ
Nappa: “Poor runt, his first big shot is against someone out of his league, hehe, what a shame.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQAwR1ACZ9V
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAa41OotLYxd
Kakarot: “Come on now, don't back down so soon!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQeG1QP6bAS
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAorQ6eQgHy1
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!
218Please respect copyright.PENANADWv3CkHZFf
Raditz: “What the hell? His power level is growing!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAd7GzOzNQIY
Nappa: “That's nonsense! Let me see.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAoBE9tiwJyM
The elite's scouter scanned the low class warrior, revealing the shocking revelation that his power had shot up drastically.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAct7k44d9lU
Vegeta: “It looks like he's putting on quite the spectacle.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxYiS1oSKNk
Raditz watched in disbelief. He questioned the situation, pondering about it in his mind.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAv8L4jpxqPy
Raditz: “He's not just getting stronger, he's improving too. He never demonstrated this level of proficiency before!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA2bh2LOiD14
Modora huffed, taking a moment to catch his breath. Kakarot used the opportunity to catch a break as well.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAaEDFmaVKE5
Modora: “All that and you still can't finish me, I think it's about time I bury you!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXyQ2HRLNxI
Kakarot: “So it's come to this point at last. I've been anticipating this moment!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAbHzNzSqVr2
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAj558JmbEtq
Kakarot: “This will be your funeral!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8ht9mlXdLZ
Modora lowered his hand, shooting down a burst of fire.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjVz6ECvZCC
Modora: “Deadly incineration!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAmrwOcICMbr
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEacqNDi24D
Raditz: “You sly little bastard, looks like you came up with your own move.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAC1mVJIBfgL
He took a peek at his injuries.
218Please respect copyright.PENANANQee8rM03k
Raditz: “Your body has already begun its recovery process so soon, that's odd.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5iJ94x5QDG
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcP9nmQFvQB
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANALr8W0AnsYh
Kakarot: “I'm proud to be a saiyan!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFdBYUdTbdL
Vegeta: “I think you've made us all proud today, boy.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIhJQlZAnUW
Kakarot accepted his superior's compliment with a smile.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVCk91iihrL
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgH6xdlGQDY
Raditz: “Kakarot! Look out!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdPh1akGfPg
Kakarot: “Huh?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAiN7Lo0SVau
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFxzcGutKbd
Raditz: “Why you!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWTLPr4wmE4
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUznnRYgbGS
Raditz: “Kakarot! Answer me!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAA4vtZemp2O
Kakarot coughed out some blood before opening an eye.
218Please respect copyright.PENANANT708xpNWg
Kakarot: “What… What h-happened?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjJujxiw7xw
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdhZWnwTU72
Raditz: ‘Right!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7apvk44Ngo
Raditz carefully lifted his brother and took him aboard.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAi2GlrViJXN
Kakarot: “R-Raditz, am I… gonna be okay?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8BIa95oVg4
Raditz: “Pipe down little man, you're fine. It's a common occurrence with us.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAW2vFg1JjHl
Raditz remained composed but his thoughts quickly ate away at him.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAtQKfyxYsxA
“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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKWlIDdaKgr
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6jx8H6iWzm
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUU9BAuGAcn
Raditz: “I'm positive.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcV80IspnTF
Doctor: “Well, it looks like his body has recovered enough to dismiss any urgent treatment.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0tO7rYkbRT
Raditz: “I see, that's all then I guess. I'll be making my way out. Make sure he gets everything he needs.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvwJOEFXiWK
Doctor: “I will sir.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAaZG452uA8u
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANApfPHivO63m
Raditz: “You're awake, it's about damn time.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyQCq6aLT6o
Kakarot: “Brother, what happened? I remember defeating Modora and then suddenly I just.. blacked out.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZFo2zxzqy0
Raditz: “You let your guard down and that creature used the chance to leave a nasty mark on you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA4J0F9JVeFA
Kakarot: “I see. I don't feel anything though.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3djOHfb3Ok
Raditz: “That's what's got me confused too.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3LbGhbYbyy
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9g7NBuK68Z
Raditz: “Haha! Don't get too ahead of yourself now, you still need more to catch up to me.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAOJyrcxCH6Y
Kakarot: “When is our next crusade?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAX68MJfNiFy
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAX0tCvV5fHx
Kakarot: “If that's the case…perhaps we could stay on earth, don't you think? It could make the perfect base!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjk390wOnAd
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlnDfenMILc
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAuQXsWs7nna
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARa4IHqdHFe
Kakarot: “Are you saying you never loved a woman?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhhOI9UC1ZG
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXV9l48AAgP
Kakarot: “It seems I still have a lot to learn about our traditions huh?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAoFKjveV6Sm
Raditz: “Yeah, you sure do.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvK90KjeyMA
The brothers shared a laugh together.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxhvHBhBD6O
Beet: “Sir!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAaf2vnJNBwW
The boy eagerly rushed to his father and greeted him with a firm handshake. Kakarot smiled and patted his head.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxZeIdy48vp
Bulma: “You came back sooner than I expected.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANACsis4Q2jZQ
Kakarot: “I couldn't stay away for too long, so after some consideration, my brother and I convinced the others to migrate to earth. That way we don't have to be apart throughout the process.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA4BRLpdxqcq
Bulma: “Wait, what? You brought them here? Are you crazy?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALSqVV9PB7v
Kakarot: “They're great people, I promise! I trust them with my life.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA68eC2hdqLK
Bulma: “This isn't just about you anymore! I want to be able to trust them with mine and Beet's lives too!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0ASqabVRuV
Bulma looked over at her son and gently patted his shoulder.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAca8IpH2WiP
Bulma: “Go play outside okay? Let me and your father talk.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA61EPLP6UDb
Beet: “Yes mom!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGMIVImX4FZ
The little boy made his way out, trying not to acknowledge the tension in the room.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9apYWI46JM
Kakarot: “We'll be fine, I'll make sure of it.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAL2KhnQ5GhZ
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVtCP7EeK0U
Kakarot: “When we win.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIWEXrgMcLo
Bulma: “And what considers us the winners? What happens when survivors of their conquests come looking for revenge?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUZME1Xo0B4
Kakarot: “I’ll stop them.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAohUKpBDFrL
Bulma: “It isn't just about you, don't you get it? You have a family now! When did you become so selfish?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA55sDHBOAmw
Kakarot: “Is it so much for me to want to live amongst others of my kind?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAsnttXkAESu
Bulma: “It is when that desire puts us all at risk!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEuhf8vI4O0
Kakarot turned away to face the door.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAY9brJA8IrE
Kakarot: “You know I'll always keep you guys safe, but I'm done rejecting my wishes, my calling.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhKoBdMHRT1
He walked out without looking back or showing any interest in doing so.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAS8g16E7GfR
Kakarot: “Beet!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAn01dVCorQP
Beet: “Yes, sir?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANABtrdPeDSEZ
Kakaort: “Come with me, let me introduce you to the others.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAotu0pJxHvq
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAs6AwxD0Wcn
Beet: “Sir! What's going on over there?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5JpzpYtsS6
Kakarot: “It's… renovation. Our new family is settling in. It will all be fine when it's over okay?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAz2Cz34wU1S
Beet: “But they look scared, Sir.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAb5seF9Zt3u
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZKsjQT5tWB
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8UmW1F7zc4
Raditz: “Kakarot, we've been waiting for a cool minute now!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgWkd5aQaV2
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYkchGRykQQ
Raditz: ‘Well, pipsqueak, come greet the rest of the gang!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARueYEFJD2c
Beet's mood brightened after hearing the comforting voice of his beloved uncle. He rushed to the others, eagerly introducing himself.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlClknEVngf
Beet: “I'm Beet! I've heard a lot about you guys, you're all so awesome in person!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWMXi8TCa8d
Nappa: “I like this little one!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFU8ywa8JVA
Vegeta: “So, you're the son of Kakarot. He was conceived with an earth woman, am I right?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHx13tQOnau
Kakarot: “Yes, that's right. That would make him a half blooded saiyan if I'm not mistaken.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAY3VP9HI2i3
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANArLKCT2oxfS
Vegeta looked down at the cheerful boy.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzQio8MVMaw
Vegeta: “Raditz, I'll give you the honor to test the boy's strength yourself.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAX2uq5cyMK6

218Please respect copyright.PENANAczGoLEZuBR
Vegeta: “I don't care, do it again.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANArjUXyNr0yZ
Vegeta walked up to Raditz, getting close to his ear.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAaluueGkTGO
Raditz: “I don't get it, what's so special about that kid for you to demand something so meaningless?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFHhC4WMGli
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1eVdFpkJFp
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince, but I'm not entirely sure if I'm okay with using my nephew as an experiment…”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALAEYn6E8Jm

218Please respect copyright.PENANA3JZTbI47Qh
Raditz: “No. Of course not..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAu3Au5QPYGT

218Please respect copyright.PENANAcpc0SsE6tJ
Raditz: “I will..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAH86uuu7xBU
Raditz turned to his comrades.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlx7kgylY5G
Raditz: “I will be taking Beet into the battle chamber. You're all excused to leave.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJO19gtfZdQ
Kakarot: “Hold on! I can't just let you take my son without me!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAINzU4qmlIx
Vegeta: “Calm down, boy. This is the reason I asked to meet him. Besides, it's in our tradition to not question our superiors.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnAQPgNKesi
Raditz put his hand on his brother's shoulder.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAM9XqKhMPWT

218Please respect copyright.PENANAW19gJUQ5Lk
Kakarot hesitantly nodded.

Kakarot: “Go with your uncle, Beet. Have fun, okay?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGNPwemHARH
Beet: “I will, Sir!”

Kakarot: “I'll be outside.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAbabxhfee2C
Beet: “Okay!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA2BiOu2mtGS
Raditz: “C'mon now, let's go.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfbPGe66F55
Beet followed his uncle into the training room.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAebw4VDK31w
Raditz: “That's pathetic! You can do better than that!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMS5S1uW3qY
Beet forced his legs up. He wiped blood off of his lips.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAedaUUxjWhs
Beet: “I'm going to be strong, like you and Sir!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXDGsMY8xOE
The boy lunged himself forward, giving his uncle everything he had. Raditz smacked him away with a backhand.

Raditz: “You're nothing but a runt, you'll never be like your father.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAmN4CPNhm92
Beet: “Th-That's! …Not trueeee!!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8BkhnJdztc
Beep! Beep! Beep!!
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVceBc2MXFM
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAf4v3isyNPX
Raditz: “That's… Impossible!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeNAxI2L0wl
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA81bewNxZNq
Raditz: “That's enough, pipsqueak. I'll take you back to your father alright?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcgDC9XyRUq
Beet: “O-Okay.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALNQemV4TwT
Beet collapsed to the ground. Raditz lifted his nephew and returned him to his father.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAoGrqbT7pbZ
Kakarot: “What happened?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvbb2ZIbQyW
Raditz: “The boy is fine. Head home Kakarot, take the day off.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWtdo8SFoWQ
Kakarot: “What about the settlement? Won't you guys need my assistance? I know this place better than you all.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAr7GnBp5ukx
Raditz: “We can take it from here, just go.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAmbA30dvGiF
Kakarot: “Fine.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1KQXXjVYgy
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAoVwskKegoA
“What could he want with that boy? Should I tell Kakarot?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAw10WWKN40w
He snapped out of his head upon reaching the Prince.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzAqoOiNhom
Raditz: “Vegeta, I've gotten a proper measure of his strength.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAg1BOLBYJMq
Vegeta: “What did the scouter say?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZYtTwv2Dom
Raditz: “It… It exceeded 10,000..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAM8HYpdZrDv
Vegeta: “It looks like my suspicions were correct after all.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFOeOXIyWPB
Raditz: ‘What's going on? I don't understand what you're getting out of all this!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXfW9NKkuSp
Vegeta: “You know it's not tradition to question me, Raditz.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6rLHGmQN5U
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfCaSI50jS5
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAD05BDaiiZc
Raditz: “I swear on everything, I'll remain loyal to you and only you!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnshq041esL
Vegeta: “Good. Keep the following between us then. I had a slight suspicion that the hybrid could actually be STRONGER than a full blood.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1yZxOwTwNU
Raditz: “But how is that even possible? With such weak genetics, wouldn't it only bring a saiyan down?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzI5phdxgcA
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAazIZoQwxqx
Raditz: “You mislead the rest to save your reputation then?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8nbgyLct4g
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAf99mnWmHuO
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAOjgBqpnbWc
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAT9Yb4H2tcV
Raditz: “Understood.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzmDnZyXzBz
Vegeta: “You're dismissed.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAODJVNmnqbY
Raditz departed from the room.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyfzprnRfJR
“Haaaa”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGKe0H44D8u
An explosion erupted. A warrior with battle armor and a spear went flying from the impact. He slammed to the ground and laid unconscious.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXUqhLreGDx
Raditz: “Nice one, brother! Don't forget what I taught you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcxj8aA7z4r
Kakarot: “Right.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5RLTmpEyI0
Kakarot lifted the defeated warrior from his head and blasted a hole through his chest with an energy attack.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMDVE1SffQE
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent. I won't make that same mistake again.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApKOPv40DKg
Raditz: “As it should be! Glory comes from victory and victory isn't certain until your opponent is eliminated permanently!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANABiAxSimJwM
Kakarot: “A lot of talking, brother! Let's get back to fighting!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALSIonfcKZa
Raditz: “Hehe, you rascal.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAadKz0FS4bO
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANArrJC12Aidk
Kakarot: “Bulma, I'm home. Prepare me a nice meal, why don't you?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATfjx3hwN1u
Bulma: “I made some miso soup earlier, enjoy the leftovers.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANABi0ir2NcOa
Kakarot: “What's with the attitude?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3vJvWb8lw6
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdldydYIVl4
Kakarot: “We're not having the conversation again!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAs59BWwn57c
Bulma: “We'll have it as many times as we need to until you get your act right!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGlwd0DPcrp
Kakarot stared at her in silence. Beet entered the room, returning from outside. He instantly caught on to the tension between his parents.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMNJzZpkxZT
Beet: “Is everything okay?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1f8w4mXOAo
Kakarot: “Yeah, we're all good.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATnTf09GGkM
He replied, still staring at his clearly upset wife.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAI40CBtsuA4
Beet: “I'm not dumb! I know you guys are fighting again! Why? Why can't you guys just get along like before?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApvNEC3mOCe
Bulma: “Sweetie, we aren't fi-”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZyFHqPlXM3
Beet: “You're lying! Stop lying! I miss you, Sir, stay home today, please?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKwtcAM3WCV
Kakarot frowned before nodding his head.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAB3jmJkyLXJ
Kakarot: “Fine. Fine, I'll spend the night, okay?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyam0UZTHPH
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjJnkEwiXt1
Bulma: “You just couldn't help yourself, huh?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATa5KDvs1gw
Kakarot turned around.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAv8vY96wHb0
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA4lbwfBTsRD
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgJix12NZ9c
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAtmH4cknYFz
Kakarot: “I couldn't possibly forget.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAAKAMdky8kg
Bulma: “We looked out for each other ever since. We loved each other! Where did that go?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAw4ZQdXJYpl
Kakarot remained silent. He simply frowned.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJJAzqf07zI
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANASlw27unh9q
Kakarot: “Hmph… I've recently been wondering why I still bother to stop by here myself.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATmXI98pXar
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAN3TxvZyze1
218Please respect copyright.PENANACf6bDQdZCk
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAAQMr0urnSp
Colonel: “Yes? Prince?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6OwGsHkcwa
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdnjJgwgaON
Colonel: “Understood…Sir.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATNkYe7Z2A9
Kakarot tapped his brother's shoulder.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAadmsX0bNk1
Kakarot: “Are you excited? Brother?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdr2PiCSzhK
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWAJt9pIPCK
Kakarot: “Right!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkrLKUMitR8
Vegeta: “Kakarot.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAoijIa4Dc9I
Kakarot: “Yes?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKOsXSnRFNB
Vegeta: “You'll be with Nappa and I.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA18shOHUsgZ
Kakarot: “Oh, w-wow! It is an honor, Prince Vegeta!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANArCWatpSuBj
Raditz: “Huh? But you said I'd take that role!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApNxDit4sIL
Vegeta: “Kakarot surpassed you a while ago, I'm not taking risks with an inferior saiyan.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQeQiaiud42
Raditz clenched his fists. He gave his brother a spiteful glare before taking a few breaths.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8UsiSiHig5
Raditz: “As you wish, Prince. I'll take Kakarot's task.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAknM7wcXYq1
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEuDcOJYshu
Raditz: “I'll see you all later.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvguUYyzvft
Kakarot: “Raditz!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvowWkCSZnh
Raditz turned to his brother.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlcWkVxfILH
Kakarot: “Be careful.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzzrECcGEtZ
Raditz: “Right..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA4RQwPp4cFO
Raditz took off with his pod.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAmtZNtEjJCl
“Someone is entering the atmosphere!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgc2xWckjNt
“Let me take a look.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnzLWCo0nIy
Beep! Beep! Beep!
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7unRTDl1KL
“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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA4n2rouvQOC
Zarbon approached the landing vehicle. The pod met its destination and out came Raditz from inside.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA93mwslMeM0
Raditz: “Greetings, Zarbon.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAsJuQrFRT1j
He bowed in respect.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYs2S1MSwri
Zarbon: “At least you know your place.. State your business, saiyan!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0Nfol3sVKA
Raditz: “The prince would like to speak with the lord.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAtKKDj4lJ2q
Zarbon: “You know he can't come barging in on such short notice! Especially since our lord is quite busy right now.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANANXYYpIHyZJ
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFNVyUeCoGG
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKd0UoXb0vM
Raditz: “As you wish.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZgRs5FFjM5
Zarbon signaled for him to stand and follow his lead.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAu6ipXRnSkp
Nappa: “So once he gives the signal, we make our move?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1NnkvCBkyK
Vegeta: “Precisely.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAH16OY6Xx5w
Nappa: “What exactly is the signal?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANANMN7gUSFTt
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANANRMl35LjI7
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQroAn1nEpo
Zarbon took his leave.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7lm7FvBr3r
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIkybp8Lp1r
Raditz sat patiently, noticing one of the guards peeping at him. He turned his gaze to the guards direction.
218Please respect copyright.PENANACJLQmuNTjG
Raditz: “Ya got a problem? Fool!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAO1Kq9rHF2b
Guard: “You won't be this bold when Lord Frieza arrives!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAggbKElda0Y
Raditz chuckled.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYEPE21XWdD
Raditz: “Yeah. We'll see.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXsui8c3SMu
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAbw1ICUkux5
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPyrMTXBZWU
Beep! Beep! Beep!
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkKPF0GZIsr
Raditz: “He's here…”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnt3Mlmq2jM
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARgjcTmkKoo
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIY6fe3jpY6
Vegeta: “It's time! Let's end this!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcEHFKX2fdF
The saiyans commenced their transformation as their ship rapidly approached the planet's atmosphere.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlxZCoDZlSP
Zarbon: “I warned you, saiyan!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0QWUrWLVs2
Raditz: “It's too late now, pretty boy! Frieza is finished!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVO8H1LXLQ9
Dodoria entered the room with a sinister laugh. Raditz’s eyes widened, he felt his soul leave his body for a moment.
218Please respect copyright.PENANATGDPUZFigN
Dodoria: “Surprised to see me?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhoFGv2U1un
Raditz: “N-No! This can't be!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3D8sTgrve6
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQrmYBiejIN
Vegeta: “Hehe.. That fool never saw it coming!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHHUflDCWBe
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkCFGmLSreS
Vegeta: “Here lies the foolish emper- What?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA96RHMLuHSa
Vegeta desperately searched through the remains.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA41mQBPtGJP
Nappa: “What's wrong? Vegeta?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAtDHWYx0NWf
Vegeta: “This ship… I-It's a decoy!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPhJsSXpU0B
Kakarot: “What! That means-”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8iPR40DeMG
“Quite the bold attempt I must say. You know, I knew you'd turn on me one day, Vegeta.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANASlk8jnRTHU
Vegeta: “Frieza!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9USyNLurMi
Dodoria: “Looks like your little plan didn't go out as you expected!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAqcrMDQAeVj
Raditz: “Damn it!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA91YXpV0dm1
Zarbon: “Do us all a favor and don't resist. You know it'll only end up being futile in the end.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6LCez1OCrp
Raditz: “I guess I don't got a choice huh?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANANc3OpKvGa0
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAf6rRnGcnZa
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAv4GsEModvR
Vegeta: “No! It's not over! Not yet! We'll just have to destroy you the old fashioned way.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeWgBl6pCwZ
Frieza: “I'd love to see how that plays out.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAerOMOjWQls
Dodoria: “Rrraaaaa!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUkLVzGYAje
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAAZ14c4v11z
Raditz: “Eat this! Weekend!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvrtVoKQBVf
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAA8QGtl8dWp
Dodoria: “What the hell? How did he get so powerful? Something must be wrong!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxKgQ0NRuCK
Zarbon: “Let me check the scouter.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAAf2KgrscZn
Beep! Beep! Beep!
218Please respect copyright.PENANARTc51MKUwu
Zarbon: “N-No way!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMHal27svo3
Dodoria: “What is it?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARWitlJeQ5B
Zarbon: “His power level is 35,000!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYhBA1CyllW
Dodoria: “But Raditz has always been a weakling! How is that possible?!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkQEjxy6uFM
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANANjQcj6CRkA
Dodoria: “Oh great, first I get showed up by some low class saiyan, and now I have to work with you. Just my luck.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjAJIISODLj
Zarbon: “I'm not so thrilled to fight alongside someone as repulsing as you either.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAk1elk9hB3t
Dodoria: “Whatever, let's get this over with!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMWBvxlzccm
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzum8bq5twO
Raditz: “I can't take them both like this. I have to get rid of one of them first.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVEKilMFgj7
They charged at him, slamming him into a hill.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3hgKxv7xJz
Dodoria: “Looks like all that strength still couldn't save you in the end!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAa1dkJXu4hN
Raditz: “Keep talking you tub of lard, you'll be eating those words soon! Hehe.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATCZKL1eOv6
Dodoria: “Why you!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQEfuGGic7j
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfGpVUoNFH2
Raditz: “Got somethin in your eyes?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdGTh0hZaz8
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5LBMdsntd9
Zarbon: “Damn it! It's really come to this hasn't it? Take a good look saiyan, this is the last thing you'll ever see!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeUoelyaMEx
The loyal soldier clenched his fists, his body enlarged itself, revealing a hideous and monstrous look. His power level skyrocketed.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZRLXWfJi4Q
Zarbon: “Die!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAazmNwcrB1D
Vegeta: “Both of you, stand back. Frieza is mine to kill.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAutMLPuMLN6
Nappa: “But Vegeta! This is Frieza we're talking about, I can't let you do this alone!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAaQuDQld2Ik
Vegeta: “Don't worry about me. I'm fairly confident I can take him now.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZwUKLwXXth
Kakarot: “We're counting on you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzkMnFY9n40
Vegeta nodded before slowly making his way towards Frieza.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPYu3gOqkDF
Vegeta: “Alright, scum. It's about time we settle the score!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdUZwDh79Qp
Frieza: “Ho! Ho! Ho! Give it your best shot, monkey.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA38lwiaS1Ab
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAtDLkLWQpcE
Frieza: “Haaa!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxaKHOXlppB
The tyrant blew away his surroundings with his explosive power, relieving himself from Vegeta's pressure.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUWPxTnqjlZ
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcep1G2tAtS
Vegeta: “So you concede to my might?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApRX72EkeYW
Frieza: “No, no. On the contrary, this is the perfect opportunity to get in a good workout. Consider this a privilege, Vegeta. You're the first to see this form.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAna9MD8MDMi
Vegeta: “Huh?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhF652DtLvL
Kakarot: “Nappa! What does he mean?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5lc87woSAR
Nappa: “I'm not sure! He's bluffing! There's no way he has another form!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAuWGycHXyzk
Raditz: “Ggaaahhh!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9T42u2j47y
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAr52HkJ23z3
Zarbon: “Haha! You're starting to wear out, saiyan!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdiiJ7pOtrT
Raditz: “It's a pain to admit, but he's more powerful than I am. If I draw this out any longer, he's going to kill me! I need a different approach.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8bNCtVMimA
Raditz detonated a ki blast in front of the 2 of them, creating a blinding smoke cloud. He ascended higher into the air.
218Please respect copyright.PENANArJIQw1rqPD
Raditz: “Scatter Shot!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA242QTCuU9M
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzYCLHU7MCq
Zarbon: “I think we've been at this game long enough!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAuyeWJiSIYJ
Zarbon darted past Raditz, catching him from behind. He squeezed him tight, gradually crushing his bones.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIgP6GOvfU3
Raditz: “Gyyaaaahh!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAndJwSwEWIM
He yelled in pain, powerless to Zarbon's grip.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA40ZiaxkEmY
Frieza: “Haaaaaaa!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPcDxQWJ4Io
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYpKral5Uv9
Frieza: “Sorry for the wait, you'll soon find out it was worth the suspense.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANASsktFk8AVH
Vegeta: “You've had a power up like this all along, and we never knew…”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIvytStL9iG
Frieza: “Oh this isn't a power up, prince. The form you saw before was but a mere mask, a method of concealing my true power to not accidentally blow away this solar system.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJjdLndfgW2
Kakarot: “Vegeta! We can't cave into the pressure! We must see this till the very end!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAazhmA7S0nj
Vegeta: “You don't understand, fool, there's nothing we can do anymore..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApx2xbrYA9O
Kakarot: “Nonsense! We have to find a way!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJkIgqOvkrq
Zarbon continued to torture the saiyan. His grip only tightened as Raditz grew more powerless to his might.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeGJsDPIeHP
Zarbon: “All those dirty tricks can't save you now!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6gf1XnmNo5
Raditz had almost accepted his fate until he caught a glimpse of a blinding and powerful light in the sky.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAwdQUMfSDAM
Raditz: “It's still there! I just have to get a good look at it!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAID0P3U4FIv
His body grew as he morphed into the beast known as the Oozaru. Zarbon watched in fear as his opponent grew to a massive size. Raditz stomped on him, killing him immediately. He spotted his allies, noticing their struggle.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0cM6CQg0cC
Raditz: “Frieza's off guard, this is our chance!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlam0koIMfB
He charged an attack with all of his might and shot a blast from his mouth towards the tyrant.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzLde7dOwrj
Frieza: “What? There was another one!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzF5pFTlRn9
Kakarot: “Way to go! Brother! Everyone! It's now or never! Give it your all!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA2sCoZyMFCp
Without further hesitation, the others hit Frieza with an all out blast of their own, caught in between two powerful attacks, the mighty emperor suffered a devastating blow. The smoke cleared and Frieza collapsed to his knees.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPvNGGN3g8x
Frieza: “Y-You-”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5bbpuTx3xO
Vegeta: “Haha! The mighty Frieza has fallen to his feet at the hands of the saiyan race!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAT0Ogk31f1n
Nappa: “Poor bastard can barely even stand!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlBCUTQJg9U
Vegeta: “Give it up, Frieza!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvKyWsvr3x9
Frieza: “There's no point in playing around, I can't risk it with these monkeys! I have to use my final form!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGH4NyUCkG4
Frieza stood and chuckled. His irritation faded away, shifting into a sinister smile.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA16H61gJX0b
Frieza: “I'll spare you the suspense. I guess I must reveal my truest form off the bat!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAoFhXCFd2V9
Kakarot: “Not again!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVM85u3qmzk
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAezMUo6EOLr
Vegeta: “Quick! We must turn into great apes while we still have the chance!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALPMvaQ4Puk
Frieza lifted his finger, destroying the artificial moon created by Raditz.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHnhs2M3ZlX
Frieza: “You had your chance, monkeys. Now it's my turn!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJIqXgXTntW
Faster than any of them could track, Frieza shot a swift and small beam from his finger. Kakarot watched helplessly as the beam headed straight to Vegeta.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAqUyhQtwC1J
Kakarot: “Look out!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkKgZ9dyLHX
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAX74yVC4Gix
Raditz: “Nappa!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAbS7EC4fTdI
Vegeta: “Nappa!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyNjutcqnKW
Nappa held on to what was left of his life, using his last ounces of strength to deliver his final words.
218Please respect copyright.PENANADn7GzkiAdX
Nappa: “D-Don't let this… go in vain, Vegeta… Destroy Frieza!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAX4jwLxpfsz
Vegeta: “Why would you do that?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxoFIZamVn0
Nappa: “I'd n-never let anyone h-harm you…. Friend..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWXcE9RZAbK
The loyal saiyan drew his final breath, succumbing to his injury.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAiFQnHmzwc0
Kakarot: “He gave his all simply for a better chance at securing our victory. The least we could do is give nothing but our all to the very end!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJBvpYotp4x
Frieza: “What? Were you all left petrified by my power?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKawQetpkm6
Kakarot: “On the contrary! We're more determined to kill you than ever!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3sbGRKOgik
Frieza: “I don't recognize this one, but he sure has quite the loud mouth on him.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAexKlyQd5y3
Kakarot: “I'm about to show you exactly who I am!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXm9FcBuq8M
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9fUKqmNbcP
Frieza: “Done playing around yet? Vegeta?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfQlxRYJ7cm
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7ue0Jky7HZ
Raditz: “Double Sunday!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAbGRyRnpVMC
Raditz unleashed his most devastating move. Frieza stopped it and dispersed the attack with a single hand. He flicked his hand towards himself, pulling Raditz closer with telekinesis.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlkUehHDr11
Raditz: “I-I can't move!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYzH7VEOeMW
Frieza kicked his jaw, knocking him into a building.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMLDoyUgxUi
Frieza: “Such an anticlimactic end it seems.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAodyjF6wl80
Kakarot burst out into the scene out of nowhere, and swung at Frieza with a kick. Frieza barely managed to evade the attack.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA2Tbpan5Bir
Frieza: “You again!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAtohkNgTNFg
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlqXNtG4f5i
Frieza: “You actually made me raise my guard. Interesting.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANASkts7OSIoa
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANASKEpBNIU6Z
Frieza: “What? I don't understand! There's something different about you!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzcLUUMXjnu
Kakarot landed a knee to Frieza's gut. He balled up his hands together and slammed them into Frieza's back. Frieza fell straight down but caught his balance before crashing against the ground.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9DXedX904d
Frieza: “You dare lay your hands on me!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANADYaogqD7bD
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAmDAIUbQ2qY
Frieza: “This isn't right! I broke you! I felt it in every attack! You shouldn't even be standing!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgy2wcNf8ZG
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAHLvJOFb7ar
Raditz: “Is that really him?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAuOQjmG52pH
Kakarot: “F-Friezaaaa!!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXEn0lTIO0s
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAaDyDHJ5Wfe
Frieza: “No! No!! You're… the super saiyan! There's no other explanation for this!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAW4vHCapjHb
Raditz poked a button on his scouter.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAk5MjBqFA6o
Raditz: “Vegeta! Is what I'm hearing true? Has Kakarot truly become a super saiyan?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvAcTzWw6Uc
Vegeta was snapped out of a trance.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3zCrMwlcxB
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZGusFfJACD
Raditz: “But how does that even happen?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGB2CHcwVic
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEimdXvGLnT
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyU4CG9OAiT
Frieza: “I'll just have to wipe you out along with this planet!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANApk37qWQPKJ
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIy7v4UhtNF
Vegeta: “Galick Gun…Fire!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlaE0237Acv
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeJ34A5WB0s
Frieza: “You've asked for it! This is my full power!! Haaa!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFpZLhI3jaD
Raditz: “D-Damn! We're losing the struggle!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARwwFaEuBON
218Please respect copyright.PENANAAk162xOmiC
Kakarot's body grew larger, his power spiked like nothing before. The pressure on Frieza increased.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAe2aLAq710a
Vegeta: “It's still not enough!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKEiZFsDTau
A projectile darted to Frieza's head, slightly discombobulating him.
218Please respect copyright.PENANADLNyQNdlCf
Colonel: “This is the last chance we'll have! Get him!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkmXJLUZ1kf
“Haaaaaa!!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcWErCiNqqZ
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5gTs0fOenj
Raditz: “We actually did it…”
218Please respect copyright.PENANACIpv6q7uqP
Vegeta: “Raditz! Look out!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAR3AwwQ0Gti
Raditz: “Huh?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQwE6l6zFbi
Before he could react, Raditz was struck by a mighty backhand from Kakarot.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA3Wkl7MH9ZH
Kakarot: “Rrrraaaahhhh!!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjcqDrfePLY
Vegeta: “This is bad! He still doesn't recognize us!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAODUP3gbjcM
Kakarot rushed to his brother, preparing to follow up his beat down. Raditz caught his balance and leaped into the air, escaping him momentarily.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAqyk1WazVkD
Raditz: “Kakarot! It's me! Raditz! I know you're in there!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAh0oJUyQLbA
Kakarot caught a hold of Raditz's ankle, slamming him into the ground. He grabbed the fallen warrior by the head.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7GApfcpRw9
Vegeta: “Raditz!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6YTwGle2wK
Raditz: “Stay back! V-Vegeta! I c-can handle this!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANArRtPeJ0kVk
Kakarot squeezed his head, attempting to crush it entirely.
218Please respect copyright.PENANARcL9lUjrqC
Raditz: “K-Kakarot… Don't do this! Your boy, your woman! They're waiting for you back home! P-Please Kakarot! It's me, your brother!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANADC72TlKERR
Kakarot's grip loosened but he continued to hold his brother in a lethal position.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAua9XawK7PZ
Raditz: “Fight for your consciousness, brother! You can overcome your overwhelming power and make it yours!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQspScOZPWc
Kakarot gradually snapped back into his senses and put his brother down.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMyXi6vEwrq
Kakarot: “B-Brother… I'm so sorry! I didn't mean-”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALy38LDvsg0
Raditz: “Oh shut up… I'm fine.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhmNITC8aGS
Frieza: “Don't just toss me aside like some insignificant trash, you bastards!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyrmOVRKF8i
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAx6wjcaHdaP
Frieza: “You… That look… It's starting to seem familiar..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAESWPJ6KhYA
Kakarot punched Frieza to the ground. For a split second, the tyrant saw a flash of the warrior that rebelled against him many years ago.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAlWX9OqGmf9
Frieza: “You're… No! But I killed him! Wait.. that means you're-”
218Please respect copyright.PENANASbybS8ovrO
Kakarot: “My name.. is Kakarot! And in the name of the saiyan race, I'm going to send you straight to hell!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANALdpFGkZkgp
Kakarot finished Frieza with a blast that disintegrated every last remnant of him.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAqRtiXEnbtd
Kakarot: “It's done…”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAaaRteALGjK
Raditz: “He he he, Ha! Ha! Ha! We've won!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKxlVVpBwlu
Vegeta ascended into the air.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAec0Ho7Aijj
Vegeta: “Everyone! Listen up! Frieza is dead! Head back to the ship! I'll finish the rest!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAi3Z1hgAzAH
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIBchexRNOO
Colonel: “Prince Vegeta! What about the survivors? I thought the plan was to end every last one!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAkGQ5Veyu8q
Vegeta: “Of course, I've left them a little present.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJIsAx1c162
The remaining soldiers of the Frieza force watched as a small shard of ki sank into the planet.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMWeoBr65DL
Vegeta: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcNQU0zcSZw
The planet exploded leaving no trace of its existence behind. The men cheered, the Colonel shook the prince's hand.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAiYGF5Wy1Bj
Colonel: “It has been an honor serving you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAwH2blOy3QC
Vegeta: “As promised, you'll be with us from now on.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA79MLByR6tm
Colonel: “And the rest of the Tuffles?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAV2hOBMeRYD
Vegeta: “I have a purpose in mind for those inferior people.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANADW61TA3itK
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAUmSMimhtDl
Kakarot: “That power I felt earlier, I don't understand it, brother. Normally these experiences are exhilarating, but this, it was maddening, terrifying even.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA22psrmF2al
Raditz: “I don't quite understand it either, but that power avenged our people. You've fulfilled your destiny, right?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeEDtYPlFdb
Kakarot: “Yeah… I guess I did.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAnrvvkfaTLT
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANADC57gNp0KJ
Raditz: “Good day, Prince, how may I be of service to you today?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeg3t6xfZyf
Vegeta: “Your brother put on quite the spectacle yesterday, didn't he?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAvUKBlXWHy6
Raditz: “Yes… He did.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfoOVBOoHCO
Vegeta: “It doesn't take a genius to realize he's left us both behind.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZNKrPP1jxb
Raditz: “Yeah, it is quite apparent.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAF476ok7Pwn
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcTX0Ck9qXY
Raditz: “What are you suggesting? Vegeta?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAxBDj90Vivr
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfpStVW7dzX
Raditz: “Considering your competition, your threats don't mean much right now. So enlighten me, why is that path doomed for failure?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPodgAfH9ik
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFC5GcMzu8x
Raditz stared at the floor, lost in his thoughts.

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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA4iUEnDSUPr
Raditz: “W-What do you propose? Even if I went along with it, we can't stop him.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdX8wVOLpbM
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8Y7au5s7q7
Raditz: “I won't fail you, Vegeta. I think I know how to get him off our backs.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVa0v8k9FMU
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7qUjo13ygT
Kakarot pondered deeply, looking into the dim, cloudy sky.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAAfSXjW3qAa
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAApUKm90aSa
He looked at his fist in shame.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWAweXSXRjX
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA8dS0teCmWQ
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyVdO95orJN
A sudden static came from Kakarot's scouter.
218Please respect copyright.PENANATdGMa41fHd
“Bro—-er! You ne—-ed to come! Q—--ck!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA63v7SyOMTE
Kakarot: “Raditz! Is that you!? Raditz! What's wrong?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAbgghhse4lO
Raditz: “I— tried to save th—m!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAznMSnKvbRS
Kakarot: “Where are you?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAiE5RglFCvW
Raditz: “Y—our place!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9EVXzAhkI4
Kakarot: “I'm on my way!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAyQiMshjEBZ
Kakarot anxiously rushed back to his home. The sky roared as a thunderstorm broke out. Vicious rain drops poured all over the land.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAic3tYbGl8P
Kakarot: “Has one of Frieza's loyal followers found our base? He's probably seeking revenge against me!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAMvkG1VND9G
Kakarot arrived in mere moments. Raditz waited for him outside. Most of Kakarot's home was battered up and crumbling apart.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzMjexX9dHb
Kakarot: “Brother! What happened? Where's Bulma and Beet?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVsAuxBcE6d
Raditz had a cut on his cheek and some of his armor had been damaged. He took a moment to catch his breath.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAWPgLBNZ0Os
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..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAfU7GrMM1el
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAko2u97OHUI
Kakarot: “No…”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAN0Sz9jUBpm
Raditz limped behind him, putting his hand on his brother's shoulder.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXA3REjDvAo
Raditz: “I'm terribly sorry, Kakarot. I found them like this by the time I arrived. I couldn't save them…”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAT1Jd65xQTH
Kakarot: “No, no, no, no…. They should have come after me.. no..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAtRSRs6x6o8
He fell to his knees, and held his son in his arms.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAwVsaxsAClA
Kakarot: “B-Beet… I should've been there, to protect you.. both of you.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA0eOWl7RmKB
Raditz: “It's a real shame… he cried out for his “Daddy” in his last moments you know.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAaypt5VrnTT
Kakarot: “I wasn't there for him..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6Np0CSDrqV
Kakarot froze for a moment. His eyes widened.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAAWe9Ipsfoz
Kakarot: “You… You said you found them like this when you got here..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANANBGrScLCMN
Raditz: “Let this be my final lesson to you brother. Trust no one.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAuql6MLbOy1
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA4hVhWwjrxm
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAisYpQNOg3k
Kakarot: “H-How.. c-ccould.. youuu..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAl7z0qeVtRv
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAdrbLPsvZLo
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAKjkJFyigyA
Raditz: “It's done, sir.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA5w2ivzSrvQ
Vegeta: “What did you do?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhJUD4EllcF
Raditz: “I got rid of him and his boy for good. They will never get in our way again.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7Hr6qOHeeQ
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA9jfWv6Eige
Raditz: “It is an honor.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZwwbsdVMdT
Raditz bowed down in respect.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAizXAdLxxHL
“Prince Vegeta! Our security has been breached! They're headed your wa-”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAcQ79snDQ6O
The signal was cut off in a violent manner, before they had time to process the warning, something smashed through the entrance.
218Please respect copyright.PENANASeG8cjX3zQ
Kakarot: “Y-You!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQGQ10KNBv3
Raditz: “Impossible! He should've succumbed to his wounds!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA2qGIWnpPAk
Kakarot took heavy breaths and struggled to stand.
218Please respect copyright.PENANASb8QoDFFIf
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQDxhedKpBU
Raditz: “Right!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAZPPGtwf7Qn
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPIkTm4JdZb
Vegeta: “Nappa was a fool that let his emotions cloud his judgment.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAs6n4Fjg72u
Kakarot: “He was your friend!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAhVHMKzoRnN
Vegeta: “And he paid the price for it.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAM6RjlmIAbP
Kakarot: “I l-looked up to you guys!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANARw3NaVtXPx
Tears ran down his face.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAIgxhVDUrZe
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?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAXQbONhtAd1
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAPiypQ6wp3H
Kakarot: “Haaaaa!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAchbvCJg8XP
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAutq4DzhBUz
Raditz: “Vegeta!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYNqLN8RTYB
Kakarot rushed Raditz, tackling him to the ground. He pounded his face a few times before grabbing a hold of his neck.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAzNVwvNhzyl
Kakarot: “Why!? We're brother's! Why would you do this! You meant everything to me!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAITBO7U2twN
Raditz smirked.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAQrn8HcXNHj
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANANmdzbnzPKz
Kakarot: “So none of this ever really mattered, huh? I should've killed you back in our fight with Frieza!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7bCtrSmZjq
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA1EtYe927D2
Kakarot: “Ha! Ha! Haa!! None of this matters huh? It never did! Nothing does!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAJH50aLo5LU
He pounded the ground.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA2e1qJDVY93
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAGB3ISjDFyf
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA6KzqYYwVTp
Kakarot: “To fight!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANACz3ovQqxte
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7onIHb03dx
Raditz: “B-Brother.. You w-wouldn't kill me.. right? I'm…all you have left.. p-please let me make things right..”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAsKQZIfmtLg
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent, remember?”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAsPV3421nxK
Kakarot chuckled and removed his fist. He blasted him away. Raditz's lifeless course collapsed to the ground.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAv6dh1Q9GTh
Vegeta: “Big Bang attack!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAVf0II9gJSr
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAFW4kR2oJOo
Vegeta: “Gaahh!!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANA7z3JKuGO8n
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAeVodSB596l
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEcWFwMYt9z
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.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAEYDevc7ckC
Vegeta: “Wait!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAW1NpFQRYJd
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.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAOadwlVd9o5
Kakarot: “After years of exploration and combat, I've finally made the time to gather them all together.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAjEYOBtW8fH
The seven dragon balls glowed in union before the mighty shenron burst out from within them.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAd8iURXwiR5
Shenron: “Speak your wish.”
218Please respect copyright.PENANATrpRASgq43
Kakarot put his hand on a special vehicle he had beside him.
218Please respect copyright.PENANAYheHX5sR3Y
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!”
218Please respect copyright.PENANAgmhaRLqZQa
Shenron: “As you wish."
