Frieza: “I almost feel some guilt having to do this, I'm aware you were one of our more loyal ones, Bardock.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNglEUppZWU
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OlXiFKt3S
Zarbon: “My lord, shall I dispose of this trash?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLxlST0GRA
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqCX2MqiRk
Frieza departed from his space pod, heading towards Bardock directly. They came face to face, only a few feet apart.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4loHSASoJW
Bardock: “Haaaa!!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VMvN3xDVF
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1B6yQmZDPi
Frieza: “All your efforts couldn't even leave a mere scratch, but how dare you lay your filthy hands on me!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMJSLEYoyY
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uxXu0jpIE
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXbPecqJma
A small pod zoomed past them from a considerable distance. Bardock watched it leave and smirked.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEaalbF3tC
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUf0SuhWk7S
Frieza: “Well if that's your dying wish, then I shall consider it.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifUoTnFaxQ
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbQr8XKZTL
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6hn0hoQ0q
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKd83uZ1kiT
Frieza: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgAylHwTRD
Bardock: “Go Kakarot…. Be the warrior I never could and show the world who you are!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡValNyLusbR
Bardock, along with his planet, perished becoming one with the empty, infinite space.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQF4EwOBTk
“Your alliance has fallen, Commander. Teaming up with the government couldn't save you, you're out of options.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPNwyumvD6
Commander Red: “You're..You're a monster!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V5bDKjlFD
“The world brought this upon itself when it decided to turn on me and reject me. This war was all because of you!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaBae142Oi
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvbi46YUYw
Kakarot crushed the severed head of an android that he held, with his bare hands.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYJeScYwOP
Kakarot: “This world will never throw me aside again! For it now belongs to me! Kakarot!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd419VjHpf
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1nckHIhTG
“Damn it! The signal hasn't returned! Where are you? Kakarot!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoRHBd21QR
Kakarot gently landed from the air.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6rBvH3fp8
Kakarot: “Bulma, it's over.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qguwd95dy
Bulma rushed towards him and greeted him with a tight hug.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x0hydi6zJ
Bulma: “I thought something had happened to you! Your signal cut off!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2kiAwCZOK
Kakarot returned the affection before acknowledging her concern.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrpUYSgB7U
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjXjCTMnEp
Bulma looked down and sighed. Her grip on Kakarot loosened. Kakarot frowned, noticing her discomfort.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGkLdsiWTr
Kakarot: “What's wrong?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZ3VTHXhES
Bulma: “I'm grateful for our freedom, but don't you wish this all could have been different?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFpzh2V5wE
Kakarot: “I don't understand, what are you referring to?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzurfZIBHP9
Bulma: “We destroyed many lives for the better of our own. I'm not sure I'm allowed to celebrate this victory…”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7qk2JPAtL
Kakarot gently pulled her towards him, holding her by her hand.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqUfxaKsWf
Kakarot: “What matters today is that we get to live in peace. We can have a future together at last.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWy6rSj7vz
Bulma: “Yeah.. I guess you're right. The world is our's now, where do we even begin?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4D0LjtUo5K
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiE2WKIbx2p
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6GUQ8hXwr
Kakarot: “Here it is, just as you asked, the largest boar I could find.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2CEMwX4Fu
Kakarot put down the carcass of the freshly hunted boar.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOW8S0mKZd
Bulma: “Hey! You're getting blood on the floor! Leave it somewhere else!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFEampMR76
Kakarot: “Jeez, fine I'll leave it outside in the meantime.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePXYFSsRlT
Bulma shifted her focus back to her personal project she had been working on.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh02nBOGNt
Kakarot: “You've been cooped up here for a while, what exactly are you making?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb38rqYC9a
Bulma: “It's a stretch, but have you ever wondered what lies beyond our world? Not just the galaxy but our universe as well.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04BGICzKRW
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvhc12cTaK
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoNzQ01HNj
Kakarot: “So you're building a sort of vehicle I assume? What's that going to do?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsg5hA2xh9Q
Bulma: “You could tell it's a vehicle from this small progress alone?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub2wgQwvAT
Kakarot: “That's clearly an engine, not one from any current technology we have though. Okay..I confess, I occasionally tinker with your stuff.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4pLu48blr
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSTgdiTTeo
Kakarot: “You're still bent on this..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67RVMn5I0n
Bulma: “I just can't fathom why it doesn't bother you as much! Don't you feel any remorse for what we did?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3567q3UqTB
Kakarot: “We did what we had to, I took no joy in it, but it's what had to be done.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SjBlCbFBR
Bulma sighed and dropped her head.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNHiHxtF3l
Bulma: “I should get to cooking that boar, I could use the break.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhOWhiC6PY
Kakarot: “Hm… Where's Beet?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Gp4dNV2L5
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq43jxEhFGt
Kakarot: “Looking for a good hunt I bet, I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPhjFSjygj
Beet: “Haaa!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGf5nN6rw7f
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCLpdeHMo7
Beet: “Darn! I should've picked a smaller one to challenge!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuRbqhHHxt
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkchU5TCYi
Kakarot: “You've still got a lot to learn boy.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlBj0Mkl3v
Beet: “You made it just in time sir!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPqKUJNB0Z
Kakarot put his son down and faced the dinosaur.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTP6lPw5Gz
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-”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzxzhSI4xm
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC22JXNMXOi
Kakarot: “ …..If you take away its tail, it won't have anything left to defend itself with.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXyopZr2BJ
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEcdf8gc83
Kakarot: “Enough”!
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPWlHc9xfX
Beet: “Huh?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hxLwxlAR8
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4J4z4iXAyv
Beet: “But sir, you've let me hunt animals before! What's so different now?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKlrRVk52d
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCTVzrLJY0
Beet: “I'm sorry, sir.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLY4EvsQCPQ
Kakarot: “Don't sweat it, let's head home already, we've got to help your mom prepare.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBHGDPNx03
Beet: “Right!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdk5JFcak7
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtuTpLLhrE
Bulma: “Honey, you're acting strange.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KnmAjKKb6
Kakarot: “I think my stomach is just upset from the boar. Maybe you didn't cook it right.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzeLfLthb2
Bulma: “Hey! If you're going to be ungrateful then maybe I'll just let you starve next time!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyJwBt62hS
Kakarot: “Nevermind.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYx0JwRLbH
Bulma's irritation dissipated, lowering her tone into a more gentle manner. She reached out and placed her hand on his shoulder.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIRi2LwzAD
Bulma: “If something is bothering you, you can always tell me.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VPhGhyEiR
Kakarot: “.... Doesn't this ever get stale to you? A similar routine every single day?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdgJuBn3Uw
Bulma: “I get to spend the day with you and Beet, we finally have the peace we always wanted, that's enough for me.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBImNXOO0N6
Kakarot: “I just think we could be doing more. I could be doing more. Is this really where my life peaks?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V71GMwARw
Bulma: “Is it so wrong to simply settle down and enjoy the family you've built?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5PNvWZjU0
Kakarot: “Perhaps helping Beet with his studies is getting to me.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRlmuW7I9A
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn8HZRJXdt
Kakarot: “Yeah.. I'll just sleep it off.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkzHDwLxWN

Somewhere on a nearby planet, an unforgettable nightmare was taking place. Three giant apes wreaked havoc upon the inhabitants of this world.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNalbqwODq
“We have no other option, it's time we surrender.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMR2nfxdACf
“But my lord! We've already lost so many! We can't give in to their chaos when we've gone this far!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFCiWDcJYg
“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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cCRrqYC0b
Colonel: “On it, my lord.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQG2KMdQzn4
The Colonel clicked on a button on a device he had strapped to his ear. He hesitated to speak before giving his final order.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7jja55plf
Colonel: “Stand down boys, it's over..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXC68v4r2ZJ
The tension settled down as the apes reverted back into their natural forms.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjiOW66QWV
“I was starting to hope they'd just let us destroy all of them.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhU7BTd29eC
The king himself confronted the deadly trio.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnG2FVdp1v
“King Tuffle, about time you come to your senses.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuFZDu1qty
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCrq60GQqR
“Hand me the device on your eye.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLTGFxU8jF
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.

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOSXOqDtjd
“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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfFS9IuQKn
Raditz: “Yes, it's about time I pay him a visit!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtQnc9xaus
Bulma: “Pass me the wrench, Honey!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZItvQxF0E
Kakarot: “Give me a minute, I'm fixing something up over here.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoiOk1TWdK
Kakarot twisted a bolt with the wrench before handing it over.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45npoaFEdd
Bulma: “Thanks! It's kind of weird seeing you use these tools when you're strong enough to use your bare hands.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwE81Fkuoc
Kakarot: “I guess it's just more comfortable this way, it also helps me stop myself from accidentally breaking something.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGtiXiAGIk
Bulma chuckled.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfpYw8aFbf
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzpAg0PN7G
Kakarot: “It helps me relax, and if you really want to do this, then I'll support you.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiH2hDpmih
Bulma: “Where did this sweet attitude suddenly come from?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjtNIRgvSU
Beet: “Momm!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGLmTwqEL2
Bulma: “Hold that thought-”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMKS2qbhOs
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXDrtyjhCs
Bulma: “My husband won't answer to you!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAX6gD3E6Uh
He rushed outside to inspect the commotion at hand.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03eefRUzvc
Raditz: “There you are, Kakarot. This pesky woman was making this more complicated than it had to be.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1uqmCQdME
The saiyan stood his ground. He gently pushed his family behind him and confronted the strange visitor.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN22aCyBVRE
Kakarot: “Who are you? And how do you know my name?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43BjkFGI28
Raditz approached his oblivious sibling.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7ztJipcpR
Raditz: “There's no reason to be hostile-”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefB1k1LAKh
Kakarot swung his fist towards Raditz's face. The saiyan moved his head out of the way with ease.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtV2CG2OUT
Raditz: “You're testing my patience, Kakarot!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgqZtGpg2b
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2Nk3ATsJM
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1C4VGlYiY6
Kakarot: “Enough!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtJ5IUaq0U
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTJ042oiWA
Raditz: “Your attacks are not only slow, but predictable as well. You have the natural talent but you lack the proper training.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvWMPnnMrf
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQ8pjMzXoT
Kakarot: “I couldn't even see him get behind me!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIA7d0hr5Ri
Kakarot wiped blood off of his lip as he struggled to get up off of the ground.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6b96b3yuL
Beet: “Sir!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8rkfV7COq
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrBWlU6nal
Bulma: “Beet!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQETwNa5Or
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRQg15YXEv
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9i6JjtZjG6
Raditz: “Enough! You're stepping far out of your place! Fool!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACvt8hf9PP
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8ZzbOaRzN
Raditz: “You're quite the hot headed bastard, little brother.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQnnpOLZ2m
Kakarot: “What? Brother?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDpbdcQUrq
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxUkYzLmJW
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZxjyecQX9
Raditz: “Yes, we're a powerful race known as the saiyans. We're a warrior race with natural gifts for combat. Our kind has conquered planets for ages, colonizing them either for the purposes of selling them or using them as a base. Word around here is that this planet belongs to you right?”

Kakarot: “Don't get the wrong idea, I didn't conquer this world for malicious intent, I simply did it to set myself free from their oppression. I don't wish to be an oppressor myself.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpV75kqmov
Raditz: “Why do you even care? Those scum tossed you aside when you needed them. Whatever happens to them shouldn't concern you.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcRVUyt4Jp
Kakarot: “Why are you here? Brother.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBF2ySHKh8T
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWBmGmGitE
Kakarot: “Recruit me for what?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOheTRM6aEP
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXlV7pIcvw
Kakarot: “Forgive me, brother, but I can't do it.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwwJN1Qwdu
Raditz: “Huh? Did you not just hear me? He took everything from us! His death must be by our hands!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHygGb17E7
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDU6IVIiWau
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZzs81hHAL
Kakarot turned to his wife, awaiting her approval. Bulma looked away and sighed for a moment before speaking up.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXbzNpZ41g
Bulma: “Just no more fighting between you two, got it?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHTiOQ1Pxt
Raditz: “You have my word.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsTpQTRUGx
Beet sat on a chair, pressing some ice against his cheek.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwcnmxfPFP
Beet: “You hit really hard uncle!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtn9mASZjTT
He said in a mix of irritation and excitement.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxXkP5yHMu
Raditz: “Hehe, that's saiyan strength for you, brat!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNrvU93CFu
Beet: “First Sir and now you, everyone is stronger than me! Well, except mom.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEbMlmfvyv
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjKTNZgdEC
Beet: “Heck yeah!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGm8mbZjqWn
Raditz chuckled.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmbVQ1Bq75
Beet: “You've left that plate sitting there for a while now, uncle. Aren't you going to pick it up?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVr6Erp1bI
Raditz: “Why would I do that? Isn't that what your mother is here for?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzb0Iu3zG4
Beet: “Well, my parents say it's good manners to pick up after yourself once you're done eating.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcwZO0eJrc
Raditz: “You earthlings have bizarre customs.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLPMNSt4Pe
Bulma: “Beet! It's bed time, you got school tomorrow!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuMqXB2V9V
Beet: “But mom! It's still early, I wanna talk to uncle Raditz!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTZaotn86E
Bulma: “I said get to bed! Now!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnA2ORmDaP
Beet: “Sorry uncle, I gotta go.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAkGUUX0Ch
Raditz: “Don't sweat it, kid, listen to your mother.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOzTw8c9jj
Beet marched into his room. Bulma pulled Kakarot close to her, speaking to him in a soft voice.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9mIzr09Uf
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Z7sdGhsa4
Kakarot: “I’ll be fine, you go rest.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgK82HPqwQG
They shared a kiss before parting ways. Kakarot approached his brother. They sat together in the living room, sharing an awkward silence.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLfmDoc6JH
Raditz: ‘I see you got yourself a tough woman, little brother. Hehe, just how us saiyans like em!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡER0Rb8GjGr
Kakarot: “That explains a lot..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZTbtpoelZ
Raditz took a deep breath.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfwr77CyUW
Raditz: “Follow me outside, little brother.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oZQ3ik8os
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡon6iXEJSY7
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqRkH0Z8UA
Kakarot looked down at his fist in shame.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHQ2kodrlk
Raditz: “You feel it don't you, a calling greater than this piss poor excuse of a life you live.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHucf9YmO6v
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUMkN1sjkS
Raditz: “That's your saiyan spirit, your saiyan pride! Take advantage of it, it's your greatest weapon.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8f89zCNZVg
Kakarot looked out into the starry, night sky.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz6Et5D9JX
Kakarot: “How many of us are left out there?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdmYHrWTUS
Raditz: “Including you and I, there's four.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHbt60JzNy
Kakarot: “By any chance, is one of them our father?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmiHJEsz2l
Raditz: “I'm afraid not.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NtYeGwUYG
Kakarot: “Did you know him?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasArdrxJZ7
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrIbpnjMuf
Kakarot: ‘Yeah… Maybe I do.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrES8jrwKAu
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1sPYkbLi5
Kakarot: “The prince?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKgOAZSShU
Raditz: ‘I'll fill you in tomorrow, go rest, we have a long day ahead of us.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbV23oahDHW
They descended from the sky and retreated back inside to sleep. The day couldn't have come sooner as Raditz prepared to depart.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSQcyDNbaE
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSekXV7pw0
Kakarot: “You don't understand, this is my fight. That tyrant has to pay for what he did to my people.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8hAuIC7Aa
Bulma: “They're not your people! They're colonizers! You're not like them!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJG40hgTvs
Kakarot: “….”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZsL8fcsRW
Bulma: “We're your people! Beet, me, our friends from the city!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzTtZCFGss
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9ul5PsbnP
Bulma hesitated to reply.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpkhVkoLnT
Kakarot: “Please, let me have this. I wanted a greater purpose, and I feel like this is it. I promise I'll return safely.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoW1Rgr3wZ
Bulma: “Please, be careful, Kakarot.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSS81q0KQz
The pair shared a quick kiss before separating. Beet rushed to his father.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZV7Of4vEHh
Beet: “Sir!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDj3Itix5Qc
He came face to face with his father.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldf7uOFdmV
Beet: ‘Sir, please be back soon. I'll miss you.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQQHfDsh8Z
Kakarot gently patted his son's head and crouched to face him directly.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHXsYeBO15
Kakarot: “I'll be back before you know it, listen to your mother and look after her for me, okay?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJTbsF3IjN
Beet: “Yes! Sir.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5V4CbHedF
Kakarot retreated back to his brother.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpB2CIvN42
Raditz: “Are you ready?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLwT38AFwH
Kakarot: “Yeah, take me to the others.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVnOUnKs78
Raditz: “It was a pleasure meeting you all, I'll bring him back in one piece haha!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQQ1T6VbLT
The brothers entered their pods, taking off into the vast space. Raditz communicated with his brother through a radio device within their pods.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqbxvDBMWu
Raditz: “It's more comfortable than it looks huh?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ456JrZod
Kakarot: “Definitely. Tell me, brother, what are the others like?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3varEXkjL4
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCJ2Dr0eKo
Kakarot: “They sound amazing.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQUdYODZZc
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.’
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRuHIDCaag
Kakarot: “I can't deny, I am a bit excited.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmSfhpThw3
Raditz: “That's the spirit!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNZudZvpRt
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNRTLoKzht
Kakarot: “You must be the prince, it's an honor to meet you.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡix3CwS62xd
Vegeta: “You knew me before I even got to introduce myself, quite bizarre.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EgEvp5o9u
Kakarot: “I guess the introduction was unnecessary, from just taking a look at you, I sensed it.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1wvsKpmB5
The prince glanced at the humble warrior, before kicking his face, landing him flat on his back.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulvn3KhPyT
Vegeta: “Stand up, boy. We're all warriors, are we not? Have some pride, don't ever lower your head to no one!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFT4Yfdh0bs
Nappa: “Looks like the rookie is off to a bad start! Haha!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRi6ONQ4UoU
Kakarot rubbed his face, he was confused for a brief moment but soon understood the prince's intentions and abided to his command.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWtAzumkh1
Vegeta: “Follow us, we'll fill you in inside the… battle station.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDYtN01kUA
The prince hesitated.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesIMKu1fFL
Vegeta: “Remind me again why we went with that name?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxHm89JdeZ
Nappa: “Haha, you see Raditz, I told you “Court Room” would've sounded much better!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvI0jH2Wdcf
Raditz: “Oh shut up you bald freak! Battle station is a fitting name!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrQQ8pHtXU
Nappa: “Hey now! Don't come for my looks! Your freakishly long hair would make anyone want to go bald!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXELNg8Ry5
Vegeta: “Pipe down boys, save that energy for the sparring session.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmITjxetoI5
Kakarot nudged his brother's shoulder. Raditz turned to his brother.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBhLCF9gq1
Kakarot: “When I was at war with the earthlings, my wife and I referred to our base as the “Battle Station.”’
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTQxoZDJMC
He quietly mentioned. Raditz smirked.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGoSpdDPJ0
Raditz: “I knew you'd understand!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlZA3J1LYl
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNoFffUUJz
Vegeta: “I'm sure Raditz already let you in on some of the details, correct?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc59MtVXck
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSDc3BSyb8
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9oluYLhar
Kakarot: “Understood. So, where do we begin?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHUHlouGob
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCLleWzGqc
Kakarot: “If they don't submit, what happens then?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb02HSViJr
Nappa: “What is this weirdo babbling about? We kill them of course!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZq1fbYX8V
Kakarot: “Is it.. really necessary?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd0AdHcLFM
Nappa: “You can't be serious!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHqxmhZLss
Vegeta: “Raditz, may I speak with you, in private?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0ostCM1Q2
Raditz: “Yes, prince.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUSaXJVhhO
The two stepped out for a moment, leaving everyone else in suspense.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwrVZwCVY8
Nappa: “Looks like someone's in trouble haha!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA84yInoCLl
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3piKUSoKYr
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AFbOoJ4R8
Vegeta: “As you wish. I trust you won't let me down.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ97X1OvHvD
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyZXtAYCku
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJtHBY0JCa
The group retreated from their meeting room and headed outside. Kakarot caught up to his older brother and spoke with a troubled tone.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24axvdNa5G
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIM9ZUKSVSz
Raditz: “I'm sure you had to get your hands dirty to conquer your world. Why is this any different?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8thZROF6TW
Kakarot: “I fought for my freedom, not for meaningless violence!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgS9Jf01gVt
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAPPrGI62A
Kakarot: “Well, it makes sense when you put it that way.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwISgfOF7W
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdVuQkrCOL
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6UhUhyC62
Kakarot: “Now that you mention it, I can't contain the excitement. I heard Vegeta mention something about sparring.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo24L3QsYAK
Raditz: “Oh yes, we have a special room for sparring.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzV60OUS2m
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcDYTjz4Pv
Raditz: “I see, well, we can spare a few minutes before we depart from this planet. Let's get it on!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDUQRQ87Nb
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDHAF395PY
Powerful shock waves swept surrounding rubble into the air. A few more shockwaves shook the area before Kakarot came tumbling to the ground.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfFUSgVgxw
Raditz: “You're improving faster than I imagined.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpa3E9JjMq
Kakarot: “Hmph, I can't say it doesn't bother me that you have to hold back just for me to keep up.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8DKo8jRma
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOue7OztKr
Kakarot: “What do you have in mind?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbNktDtZTx
Raditz: “Watch and learn, baby bro!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KnWXD3AL1
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGL8aQbB4E
Kakarot: “What was that?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzIM1MRoGR
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XKAEh5LIW
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPdqE8YwiU
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSwFCm4byI
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonCHR9WqsT
Raditz: “You're quite odd for a saiyan if I'm being honest.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQasWJKTiqS
Kakarot: “I guess I just feel like I owe it to them after everything we've been through.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡca3X023doF
Raditz: “I'm starting to feel like this dream of peace of yours isn't living up to the expectations you had in mind.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWFsomyL1j
Kakarot: “You know, I really thought coming here with you guys would have cured this sensation, but I still can't shake the feeling.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0hrK3F8rB
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0V2SsOQP5
Kakarot: “If you say so..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxk5BoQrHnT
“Raditz, Kakarot.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpQ7C3Z028
A voice called out from the scouter on Raditz's eye.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDu8bs9eNEJ
Raditz: “Vegeta, we're on our way! Kakarot, it's time to go.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15o5nFfbPW
Kakarot nodded and followed his brother. They headed to their pods, where the other two saiyans awaited next to their own.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGdywA5okC
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlSjWukPjj
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfiyTlGSJA
Vegeta: “What the hell? Did the Tuffles lie to us?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cDh0MNJQt
Nappa wiped sweat off of his head.

Nappa: “The heat over here is unbearable! It's if we were directly in the sun!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwxyKglaVo
Raditz: “Those schemers must've planned this to buy some time for some counter plan!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjOxolK94t
Kakarot examined the ground. A few pebbles and some rubble trembled off the ground. He felt a subtle shake.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLCW5HXIZM
Kakarot: “Something's coming from beneath us!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndcbVFdyaS
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxoc4DCeI7
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61XWNa3ALp
The creatures remained in a suspended animation-like state. Vegeta's eyebrow twitched in irritation.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvOSk8gQlO
Vegeta: “These incompetent fools are mocking us!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaMwrio3CR
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpwcv09C5m
“Your foot is on my tail!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IcNYjIUpT
“Your tail shouldn't be there then!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2skv7D60Y
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzmSoPjMIf
Raditz: “These numbskulls are nothing but barbaric creatures that give into their primal urges. They're useless to us!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpm8WoHF1U
Vegeta: “Hmph.. Well, not entirely. Kakarot!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBO6W3SPXui
Kakarot: “Yes, Vegeta?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcg6DKzvBzx
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJF8qfLcwK
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbaAlOQEi7
Raditz: “What? Got cold feet all of a sudden?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vhOeeAXKs
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5SuOAQH4r
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquoFUckodD
Kakarot couldn't dare to face his brother in the eyes. The guilt he felt knowing Raditz was right was overwhelming.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrAFE7CUJL
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XRnma5jv5
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjM07GqAPa
Vegeta: “You're starting to seem like a real saiyan. Don't get too cocky though, always watch your blind spot.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1aRNYo9sX
Kakarot smiled.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkDRrzNYks
Kakarot: “Understood!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1HoKvLYea
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR0QWNMtyc
Vegeta: “What the hell?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLAg5I7LnJ
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtTuUTWX1c
Nappa: “Could that be, Amaterazu?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56KH8LhZRC
“I am Modora! The most powerful of the Tatsu race! No one wreaks havoc upon MY planet without getting through me!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwIfAyTVMp
Raditz: “Looks like we got ourselves an even larger hot head. He won't do us any better than the rest.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvVWkduDPF
Kakarot: “I'll fight him!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3iQhYQ2ed
Everyone turned to Kakarot in surprise.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbE0cgJqmxh
Kakarot: “I'm not done fighting! He'll be MY opponent!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNyWLpOmFS
Vegeta chuckled.

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGYTI3fz4A
Modora: “You'll be my first victim then, give me your worst!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQSvFKrWH5
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6MDTDFSbq
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYN2oBif16H
Raditz: “Hey, his power level is higher than we anticipated! Kakarot is outmatched!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPqAOorOw0
Vegeta: “You might have to step in.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaCFUSgEaK
Nappa: “Poor runt, his first big shot is against someone out of his league, hehe, what a shame.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhLALi54vf
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62H8HOVpDS
Kakarot: “Come on now, don't back down so soon!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2fp5ROI5k
Modora charged at the saiyan, disintegrating and smashing everything in his way. He lowered his head as he went in for a headbutt. Kakarot caught his head. He was pushed back as Modora tried to force his way through and connect his attack. The immovable object had met the unstoppable force. Smoke came off of Kakarot's hands, the overwhelming heat of Modora's body was leaving its burns once more. Kakarot clenched his teeth, trying his best to endure the sting. He lifted the monster by its head and slammed him to the ground. Modora immediately recovered, launching a punch off the bat. Kakarot blocked the attack but was sent flying from the sheer force. Modora took the chance to commence an assault of his own. Kakarot fended off the attacks but the pressure was leaving no opening for a counter attack. Modora bypassed his guard and caught Kakarot with a few blows before being knocking him away with a blast of fire from Modora's chest. Kakarot rushed back into action, confronting the dragon once again. They traded a blow, knocking blood out of each other. They continued their slugfest, receiving and delivering attacks to one another, nonstop. A punch to the gut, an elbow to the jaw, an uppercut to the face, a kick to the rib, a kick to the head, the brutality continued.

Nappa: “That's nonsense! Let me see.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmdQINEtNo
The elite's scouter scanned the low class warrior, revealing the shocking revelation that his power had shot up drastically.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8r8hwuTLV
Vegeta: “It looks like he's putting on quite the spectacle.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEegryXtVSu
Raditz watched in disbelief. He questioned the situation, pondering about it in his mind.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15w4fZjuxI
Raditz: “He's not just getting stronger, he's improving too. He never demonstrated this level of proficiency before!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGNWOcW2qy
Modora huffed, taking a moment to catch his breath. Kakarot used the opportunity to catch a break as well.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY21rktfTSs
Modora: “All that and you still can't finish me, I think it's about time I bury you!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnoLZTGBF3
Kakarot: “So it's come to this point at last. I've been anticipating this moment!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCugll6tO8
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Y1Pn42Yx5
Kakarot: “This will be your funeral!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97vNt0k1yH
Modora lowered his hand, shooting down a burst of fire.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxRM0GEHn8
Modora: “Deadly incineration!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqykcKKscGh
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbeDsjtpbg
Raditz: “You sly little bastard, looks like you came up with your own move.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUDR7weZku

Raditz: “Your body has already begun its recovery process so soon, that's odd.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GsYSA4X4s
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8gs15h5pd
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vrbfZQfLl
Kakarot: “I'm proud to be a saiyan!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡff5FZq8Kty

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14aRWvAOnZ
Kakarot: “Huh?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqC1q1Zfdd0
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0fyvLVAJ6
Raditz: “Why you!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdt7EzPh9B
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycm16OFl2P
Raditz: “Kakarot! Answer me!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsK2lCZ1Uj

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XGHqvV02E
Raditz: ‘Right!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxayzEQoquI

Raditz: “Pipe down little man, you're fine. It's a common occurrence with us.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmhbEyhA7T
Raditz remained composed but his thoughts quickly ate away at him.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBTMQyLT4F
“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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqSHH1HeSl
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xtf54U8zc
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONmxZFFE2t
Raditz: “I'm positive.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rADSUONuc
Doctor: “Well, it looks like his body has recovered enough to dismiss any urgent treatment.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgvEpQmmet
Raditz: “I see, that's all then I guess. I'll be making my way out. Make sure he gets everything he needs.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjGjFiWtIN
Doctor: “I will sir.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyqupzJ5Cg
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqULhrnzE6V
Raditz: “You're awake, it's about damn time.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YVjTFiadA
Kakarot: “Brother, what happened? I remember defeating Modora and then suddenly I just.. blacked out.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3H9k8tyJN
Raditz: “You let your guard down and that creature used the chance to leave a nasty mark on you.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZovKa6sSv

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowoMkEWYpX
Raditz: “That's what's got me confused too.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5YYLmCiN0
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eIwQ6HNyX
Raditz: “Haha! Don't get too ahead of yourself now, you still need more to catch up to me.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsKo13XGUM
Kakarot: “When is our next crusade?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcEy42ppQL
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUt26SycFm
Kakarot: “If that's the case…perhaps we could stay on earth, don't you think? It could make the perfect base!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDadCfqMXh
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFnCAUL1oX
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMCG2UQ9au
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV7tTsh3Pg
Kakarot: “Are you saying you never loved a woman?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrgagIjncx
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP08Fg7VJKK
Kakarot: “It seems I still have a lot to learn about our traditions huh?”

Kakarot: “We'll be fine, I'll make sure of it.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYmYDr56RV
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzWBKkJeds
Kakarot: “When we win.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxpx8dv9B8

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VvjfBsQSd

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPPjfX8zvM

Kakarot: “You know I'll always keep you guys safe, but I'm done rejecting my wishes, my calling.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkypREZfXmh

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOFI8OlvRS
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesAhD2eWT1
Beet: “Sir! What's going on over there?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8lOjD1h7x
Kakarot: “It's… renovation. Our new family is settling in. It will all be fine when it's over okay?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgasiJe6KZ
Beet: “But they look scared, Sir.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuizBgttuQN
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO04siRl4O
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMGshAuJBs
Raditz: “Kakarot, we've been waiting for a cool minute now!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcLuRvEpT0

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHazEksDvd9
Raditz: ‘Well, pipsqueak, come greet the rest of the gang!”

Vegeta: “So, you're the son of Kakarot. He was conceived with an earth woman, am I right?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB03LsQBhpL
Kakarot: “Yes, that's right. That would make him a half blooded saiyan if I'm not mistaken.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvq1BvnkkL
Vegeta: “What a shame, he won't have the full might of a pure blooded saiyan, the crossbreeding seems to have been successful however. Earth is the perfect ground to repopulate our race!”

Vegeta: “I have a little theory, but I'm not sure I want the rest to find out if it does end up being true. I'm trusting you with this.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyC2di6BFL
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince, but I'm not entirely sure if I'm okay with using my nephew as an experiment…”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzGv8i3l89
Vegeta: “Don't tell me your brother's earthling values are rubbing off on you, Raditz.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBk79Z6g4m
Raditz: “No. Of course not..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQHZ6ii2dR
Vegeta: “Then do as I say, prove to me you're deserving of the position I've been offering you.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYygLw8bC6
Raditz: “I will..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCrzpzCReL
Raditz turned to his comrades.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5H8DLeiRq
Raditz: “I will be taking Beet into the battle chamber. You're all excused to leave.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6rcjpEE0G
Kakarot: “Hold on! I can't just let you take my son without me!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNOBe1aB6s
Vegeta: “Calm down, boy. This is the reason I asked to meet him. Besides, it's in our tradition to not question our superiors.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPucVr6pC1d
Raditz put his hand on his brother's shoulder.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlA3IeXjvI
Raditz: “He'll be okay, think of it as special training.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQbBNdI7x8
Kakarot hesitantly nodded.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoPdUngMHB
Kakarot: “Go with your uncle, Beet. Have fun, okay?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wlecSeUtn
Beet: “I will, Sir!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddoxzqWNWN
Kakarot: “I'll be outside.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PiAiilAY4
Beet: “Okay!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpan8Ig1e7
Raditz: “C'mon now, let's go.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25nrx8WxyW
Beet followed his uncle into the training room.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSdt6A1FU0
Raditz: “That's pathetic! You can do better than that!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku0Q3s4eMY
Beet forced his legs up. He wiped blood off of his lips.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplItvUPdRf
Beet: “I'm going to be strong, like you and Sir!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3oJkV4m5f
The boy lunged himself forward, giving his uncle everything he had. Raditz smacked him away with a backhand.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDwDmiBLc3
Raditz: “You're nothing but a runt, you'll never be like your father.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTslhD5AXo
Beet: “Th-That's! …Not trueeee!!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUHKg6eck6
Beep! Beep! Beep!!
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstlH8c1Z72
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdSfYcVcJL
Raditz: “That's… Impossible!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7L8YEYP9zl
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8pOfqeOLC
Raditz: “That's enough, pipsqueak. I'll take you back to your father alright?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDb2eVLzhT
Beet: “O-Okay.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98VG4ZM1p1
Beet collapsed to the ground. Raditz lifted his nephew and returned him to his father.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCakGiRl4L
Kakarot: “What happened?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxD157qnkP
Raditz: “The boy is fine. Head home Kakarot, take the day off.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbuBXmLJ89
Kakarot: “What about the settlement? Won't you guys need my assistance? I know this place better than you all.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmdJ9Qq41j
Raditz: “We can take it from here, just go.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iv6rObJKK
Kakarot: “Fine.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjfgSTfbaj
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8IjveMTMG
“What could he want with that boy? Should I tell Kakarot?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtpPBpkjTP
He snapped out of his head upon reaching the Prince.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNOxnRlNKq
Raditz: “Vegeta, I've gotten a proper measure of his strength.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqXrbme0l5
Vegeta: “What did the scouter say?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ly4qRT197
Raditz: “It… It exceeded 10,000..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yhFCd28dQ
Vegeta: “It looks like my suspicions were correct after all.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJCfzNp0Iz
Raditz: ‘What's going on? I don't understand what you're getting out of all this!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQPPTrGSn2
Vegeta: “You know it's not tradition to question me, Raditz.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zXmfScF9f
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJugStBhfTS
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCs8kpwdKI
Raditz: “I swear on everything, I'll remain loyal to you and only you!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XTIz6urwH
Vegeta: “Good. Keep the following between us then. I had a slight suspicion that the hybrid could actually be STRONGER than a full blood.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46lpaSTXZn
Raditz: “But how is that even possible? With such weak genetics, wouldn't it only bring a saiyan down?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRZIuChRX2
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzN7BYHWGh
Raditz: “You mislead the rest to save your reputation then?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWb84axY7g3
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2YiRIo2lx
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJucD5cRH7K
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpB0QHBIg6
Raditz: “Understood.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUgUUJLTsA
Vegeta: “You're dismissed.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmURUGlbWf
Raditz departed from the room.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZNgJWIDoa
“Haaaa”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekD0zOYSYT
An explosion erupted. A warrior with battle armor and a spear went flying from the impact. He slammed to the ground and laid unconscious.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPo8NFmi64
Raditz: “Nice one, brother! Don't forget what I taught you.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDSZ3Fig1U
Kakarot: “Right.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZAIBdNK6B
Kakarot lifted the defeated warrior from his head and blasted a hole through his chest with an energy attack.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLyliMiCrD
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent. I won't make that same mistake again.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFDQujsJcj
Raditz: “As it should be! Glory comes from victory and victory isn't certain until your opponent is eliminated permanently!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmMXSdvHhM
Kakarot: “A lot of talking, brother! Let's get back to fighting!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcldV1zRTl9
Raditz: “Hehe, you rascal.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5diFgEspt
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZPgINBZCQ
Kakarot: “Bulma, I'm home. Prepare me a nice meal, why don't you?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOOiVmQJym
Bulma: “I made some miso soup earlier, enjoy the leftovers.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUO1jQs19W
Kakarot: “What's with the attitude?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcgUA6gX8d
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKyj9Ov0HH
Kakarot: “We're not having the conversation again!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqvof4qjdl
Bulma: “We'll have it as many times as we need to until you get your act right!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMX09ZnOux
Kakarot stared at her in silence. Beet entered the room, returning from outside. He instantly caught on to the tension between his parents.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPrm7w3OCq
Beet: “Is everything okay?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2235iZLfoK
Kakarot: “Yeah, we're all good.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYXfFXGePU
He replied, still staring at his clearly upset wife.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxPTpYa7XR
Beet: “I'm not dumb! I know you guys are fighting again! Why? Why can't you guys just get along like before?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8L6G1otbIu
Bulma: “Sweetie, we aren't fi-”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJjHhJBVbX
Beet: “You're lying! Stop lying! I miss you, Sir, stay home today, please?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tnRrMp5Bz
Kakarot frowned before nodding his head.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPIaRMBcWM
Kakarot: “Fine. Fine, I'll spend the night, okay?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTQXQR1TM0
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfjusyedI4
Bulma: “You just couldn't help yourself, huh?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeT7iI3g7gM
Kakarot turned around.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdme3ovB5DP
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTd5ECEOIU
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrW5Lsibeu
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1S8sljEc9
Kakarot: “I couldn't possibly forget.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOr7lUyQKt
Bulma: “We looked out for each other ever since. We loved each other! Where did that go?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2NBCcSz3U
Kakarot remained silent. He simply frowned.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDEa4URUj8
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSdiVcQmNA
Kakarot: “Hmph… I've recently been wondering why I still bother to stop by here myself.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv3qFmm0UP
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpidYMGEeVv
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgKuGgPVXt
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHogwPMGJqP
Colonel: “Yes? Prince?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmPVXnX5zZ
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLBuQSLXsE
Colonel: “Understood…Sir.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48Y2KM5VCy
Kakarot tapped his brother's shoulder.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5KcS36lCc
Kakarot: “Are you excited? Brother?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuesSms3rRS
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGHJkEUxDn
Kakarot: “Right!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kp9uQ8xc6
Vegeta: “Kakarot.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimaeKqXprc
Kakarot: “Yes?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPFxMJ0HCr
Vegeta: “You'll be with Nappa and I.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZzwHolHRj
Kakarot: “Oh, w-wow! It is an honor, Prince Vegeta!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOL3kUI2ls
Raditz: “Huh? But you said I'd take that role!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyhqYkfiRy
Vegeta: “Kakarot surpassed you a while ago, I'm not taking risks with an inferior saiyan.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrhVDgLBhx
Raditz clenched his fists. He gave his brother a spiteful glare before taking a few breaths.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESvLMXKsrN
Raditz: “As you wish, Prince. I'll take Kakarot's task.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gTDkPCCwe
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPK0WJNrm8
Raditz: “I'll see you all later.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyaf3RVCSJ
Kakarot: “Raditz!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPDmRM0DDL
Raditz turned to his brother.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ385pXyuX0
Kakarot: “Be careful.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVozdKvuW4
Raditz: “Right..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaaE0a1ItR
Raditz took off with his pod.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGctNZsTAB4
“Someone is entering the atmosphere!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ863Qb8LfKs
“Let me take a look.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCWfmhoYCV
Beep! Beep! Beep!
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm8pVbrWqU
“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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzw0YknwHo1
Zarbon approached the landing vehicle. The pod met its destination and out came Raditz from inside.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLW7OhTfMMv
Raditz: “Greetings, Zarbon.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqgUq6aN1W
He bowed in respect.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r0n23GNFK
Zarbon: “At least you know your place.. State your business, saiyan!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡck9drdnu5n
Raditz: “The prince would like to speak with the lord.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfekFE17ZT1
Zarbon: “You know he can't come barging in on such short notice! Especially since our lord is quite busy right now.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GmlHOtMVV
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplkupyNbo2
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DMpaINDrI
Raditz: “As you wish.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUVF8lwjpr
Zarbon signaled for him to stand and follow his lead.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBk9oJ95Kl
Nappa: “So once he gives the signal, we make our move?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQPkv7OCCm
Vegeta: “Precisely.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oaqKzFQBd
Nappa: “What exactly is the signal?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5e9OA4oqEw
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB47K0EG5QS
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAEw1inWgE
Zarbon took his leave.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpNx6U65Bk
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVW2KuGFCi
Raditz sat patiently, noticing one of the guards peeping at him. He turned his gaze to the guards direction.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCKAvZeZPM
Raditz: “Ya got a problem? Fool!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpDpXIhiIb
Guard: “You won't be this bold when Lord Frieza arrives!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8B3QgxcGl
Raditz chuckled.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvPw1zRl5c
Raditz: “Yeah. We'll see.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK5Emn6zxv
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUvpNEWSJf
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcn5L38KYm
Beep! Beep! Beep!
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLVcNQDIB4
Raditz: “He's here…”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0P4K6QfaCH
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy36q1rnLKu
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6neNHyNdBm
Vegeta: “It's time! Let's end this!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTVe3g1Op9
The saiyans commenced their transformation as their ship rapidly approached the planet's atmosphere.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwZc2YaYFt
Zarbon: “I warned you, saiyan!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRpfwqxAKt
Raditz: “It's too late now, pretty boy! Frieza is finished!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSww00zup3
Dodoria entered the room with a sinister laugh. Raditz’s eyes widened, he felt his soul leave his body for a moment.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PYCJS7yC7
Dodoria: “Surprised to see me?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcI4qWidRD
Raditz: “N-No! This can't be!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomfMXLIkUV
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtsfPqMMfE
Vegeta: “Hehe.. That fool never saw it coming!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVyhXDK6Gk
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2df7ASoNA
Vegeta: “Here lies the foolish emper- What?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbR3Y0qxHNN
Vegeta desperately searched through the remains.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6MKI077DJ
Nappa: “What's wrong? Vegeta?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FC3MCUdDn
Vegeta: “This ship… I-It's a decoy!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPA52cqsUS
Kakarot: “What! That means-”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKtM8s7epg
“Quite the bold attempt I must say. You know, I knew you'd turn on me one day, Vegeta.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aH4IFM7GD
Vegeta: “Frieza!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrNeh0yzzP
Dodoria: “Looks like your little plan didn't go out as you expected!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZpkx0T8VN
Raditz: “Damn it!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcvIqUnJkW
Zarbon: “Do us all a favor and don't resist. You know it'll only end up being futile in the end.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTixjDmyHt
Raditz: “I guess I don't got a choice huh?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjJ154DzP2
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFm2hmq8b2G
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3vCd56EQw
Vegeta: “No! It's not over! Not yet! We'll just have to destroy you the old fashioned way.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVU1nTifRGk
Frieza: “I'd love to see how that plays out.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPrTFxgRmI
Dodoria: “Rrraaaaa!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiaSEXwX2C
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5hqJbpR3J
Raditz: “Eat this! Weekend!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j7lWPy9F5
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYb0HHv2tD
Dodoria: “What the hell? How did he get so powerful? Something must be wrong!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOC5rlTp0mn
Zarbon: “Let me check the scouter.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhXNOYqhAS

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrqoEpSJiD
Zarbon: “N-No way!”

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYc2mSi2Stq
Dodoria: “But Raditz has always been a weakling! How is that possible?!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjI7V8bXsBS
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsYoS8jw86
Dodoria: “Oh great, first I get showed up by some low class saiyan, and now I have to work with you. Just my luck.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfRsicxX2Z
Zarbon: “I'm not so thrilled to fight alongside someone as repulsing as you either.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKTF3IwkzI
Dodoria: “Whatever, let's get this over with!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeGvil2pqM
The pair went forward with their assault. Raining down a barrage of various blows at Raditz. The saiyan warrior fended off every blow, but the overwhelming flurry left no opening for retaliation. He jumped out of their reach but they immediately tracked him with a united ki blast. He blocked the blast, taking no damage from it. He took a surprise kick from behind his head by Zarbon and suffered an immediate follow up punch by Dodoria.

Dodoria: “Why you!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sRw0yU36s
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX7DN5Lr5S
Raditz: “Got somethin in your eyes?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KRaXzmWGT
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.

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb819ZaqKHi
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8dif3cBcf
Frieza: “Haaa!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFCrd3nS13
The tyrant blew away his surroundings with his explosive power, relieving himself from Vegeta's pressure.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUhn2OPweg
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfcEWUcRQn
Vegeta: “So you concede to my might?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2U2jEWz51

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnbE7j1aXw
Zarbon crashed his arm into Raditz. He pounded the struggling warrior, knocking blood out of him with each blow. Raditz retaliated with a kick to his face. He leaped into the air and scattered a barrage of ki blasts at his monstrous opponent. Zarbon quickly recovered from the attacks and charged forward, headbutting Raditz in his face. Raditz returned the attack with a headbutt of his own. Their fighting took a short pause.

Zarbon: “Haha! You're starting to wear out, saiyan!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSFtloY8V3

Raditz detonated a ki blast in front of the 2 of them, creating a blinding smoke cloud. He ascended higher into the air.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAEUg7VdBG
Raditz: “Scatter Shot!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB8sqDgCNP
Raditz poured down a barrage of blasts. Zarbon grew overwhelmed. Raditz took his chance and slammed his knee into Zarbon's back. The sudden blow caused him to drop his guard, leaving him open for the blasts he had been fending off. Zarbon took the force of the ki attacks head on. Raditz yanked his hair, pulling him down and elbowed his face with his other arm. Zarbon retaliated with a fearsome jab to Raditz's face. He continued with a nasty slap. The terrifying soldier grabbed the saiyan's ankle and dashed to the floor, slamming him to the ground at full force. Raditz laid on the ground, using every ounce of his will power to stand. Zarbon stomped on his chest, forcing him to remain put. He continued to apply pressure, crushing Raditz’s ribs. Raditz desperately attempted to remove Zarbon’s foot but his efforts had no results. He found an opening and delivered a clean kick to Zarbon's groin. He jammed his thumb into his right eye and kneed his jaw. Zarbon held his face in pain.

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

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiWw2yX5e8

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqwcgqIJmC
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yr4u5W10X
Raditz: “Frieza's off guard, this is our chance!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtOVpJWgUr

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslbp80QQsO

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6ZzC5KUSd
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.

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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uo8OZnQPi
Kakarot: “Look out!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIv5yEgghO
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.

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDUYZ97BfK
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStGfQoDVZk
Frieza: “Done playing around yet? Vegeta?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqJvSZA8OG
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK1L64DJTn
Raditz: “Double Sunday!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqb4heHwqkh

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQbP1I2Y28
Raditz: “I-I can't move!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcYk5QgNrE

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQsRCekVUI
Frieza: “You again!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU6DGACHi2
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJhBkN11UQ
Frieza: “You actually made me raise my guard. Interesting.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWSl45zYrO
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.

Frieza: “What? I don't understand! There's something different about you!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTxzTOY9qB

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukIyxo6d6r
Frieza: “You dare lay your hands on me!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJB206viclf
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbGEeluCTY
Frieza: “This isn't right! I broke you! I felt it in every attack! You shouldn't even be standing!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHupw3z5HO
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkU0ra3KNN
Raditz: “Is that really him?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFmYM0CG30
Kakarot: “F-Friezaaaa!!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFnf9usjfz
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnStpwdptty
Frieza: “No! No!! You're… the super saiyan! There's no other explanation for this!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi4DhRaAB2
Raditz poked a button on his scouter.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHcHFrYNzI
Raditz: “Vegeta! Is what I'm hearing true? Has Kakarot truly become a super saiyan?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObQq01odsa
Vegeta was snapped out of a trance.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtwRBH7pcr
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSbQUanR4F
Raditz: “But how does that even happen?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J4CK7wVcx
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKkPFRpQ6d
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMNJ44joDh
Frieza: “I'll just have to wipe you out along with this planet!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBylWsNfCSG
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQzY14L2gn
Vegeta: “Galick Gun…Fire!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsX56xrM4X
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWYbzG9G6F
Frieza: “You've asked for it! This is my full power!! Haaa!!”

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9aJf1qs93

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKd05NF4Bu
A projectile darted to Frieza's head, slightly discombobulating him.

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1co3uXcSNI
“Haaaaaa!!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUdNhpME27
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.

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdt0nFBRBH7
Raditz: “Kakarot! It's me! Raditz! I know you're in there!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGdMeDi8ta

363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ6lIJ5mVO
Kakarot's grip loosened but he continued to hold his brother in a lethal position.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q9PO0xYuS
Raditz: “Fight for your consciousness, brother! You can overcome your overwhelming power and make it yours!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlJikiw2Fx

Frieza: “Don't just toss me aside like some insignificant trash, you bastards!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgm4FnI3qg4
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6yx2p8t6z
Frieza: “You… That look… It's starting to seem familiar..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjsocP1stq
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.

Frieza: “You're… No! But I killed him! Wait.. that means you're-”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKcbl8qB5L
Kakarot: “My name.. is Kakarot! And in the name of the saiyan race, I'm going to send you straight to hell!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUI0D5eRIf
Kakarot finished Frieza with a blast that disintegrated every last remnant of him.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡez11Gzx3IM
Kakarot: “It's done…”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQhBo0GGXP
Raditz: “He he he, Ha! Ha! Ha! We've won!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF49WofUKg
Vegeta ascended into the air.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡws7MzCV2zc
Vegeta: “Everyone! Listen up! Frieza is dead! Head back to the ship! I'll finish the rest!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YeddPznyx
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNdJfNOPsj
Colonel: “Prince Vegeta! What about the survivors? I thought the plan was to end every last one!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDamdJiiFRj
Vegeta: “Of course, I've left them a little present.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqVSio8zei
The remaining soldiers of the Frieza force watched as a small shard of ki sank into the planet.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZ0Hqatwlj
Vegeta: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNfgCqHUg9
The planet exploded leaving no trace of its existence behind. The men cheered, the Colonel shook the prince's hand.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnxVicg0vj
Colonel: “It has been an honor serving you.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aoBM26oZv
Vegeta: “As promised, you'll be with us from now on.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rkSr5r4Aj
Colonel: “And the rest of the Tuffles?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfziDZFro4
Vegeta: “I have a purpose in mind for those inferior people.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqznSeHLRQy
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpUjpirPLj
Kakarot: “That power I felt earlier, I don't understand it, brother. Normally these experiences are exhilarating, but this, it was maddening, terrifying even.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIpjJfnFjj
Raditz: “I don't quite understand it either, but that power avenged our people. You've fulfilled your destiny, right?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR81hL8h10H
Kakarot: “Yeah… I guess I did.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERtAniPDz7
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaNkH9FqLK
Raditz: “Good day, Prince, how may I be of service to you today?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYtTnNU8nj
Vegeta: “Your brother put on quite the spectacle yesterday, didn't he?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgxG4QU1Fx
Raditz: “Yes… He did.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGs2pUh8Wt
Vegeta: “It doesn't take a genius to realize he's left us both behind.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKFOYDb5TV
Raditz: “Yeah, it is quite apparent.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6Eh5nt0R9
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4npfSNgC32
Raditz: “What are you suggesting? Vegeta?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7CeTLUSSc
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJG91horKAd
Raditz: “Considering your competition, your threats don't mean much right now. So enlighten me, why is that path doomed for failure?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcwYiGPvIg
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWIoSgae4b
Raditz stared at the floor, lost in his thoughts.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5LrmpVNAR
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuV7nNPeq8
Raditz: “W-What do you propose? Even if I went along with it, we can't stop him.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwV4x7NwQ0j
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EUrmmeLC9
Raditz: “I won't fail you, Vegeta. I think I know how to get him off our backs.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHnREp6JyL
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIa6sfSpj4
Kakarot pondered deeply, looking into the dim, cloudy sky.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiO7IuOz5zG
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡake8uWFow0
He looked at his fist in shame.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUPVNrO4oe
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8G9IlBzdq
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0krU2PQXo
A sudden static came from Kakarot's scouter.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotLJhJNWjW
“Bro—-er! You ne—-ed to come! Q—--ck!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIXXeVLNTa
Kakarot: “Raditz! Is that you!? Raditz! What's wrong?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAL9F3f2w3
Raditz: “I— tried to save th—m!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nl6kvtoZk
Kakarot: “Where are you?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCvBwdSrik
Raditz: “Y—our place!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymmOrDliFF
Kakarot: “I'm on my way!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHXXOah9ry
Kakarot anxiously rushed back to his home. The sky roared as a thunderstorm broke out. Vicious rain drops poured all over the land.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDB2FfKIqe
Kakarot: “Has one of Frieza's loyal followers found our base? He's probably seeking revenge against me!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirvtbKDOwN
Kakarot arrived in mere moments. Raditz waited for him outside. Most of Kakarot's home was battered up and crumbling apart.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6SWVLlTiY
Kakarot: “Brother! What happened? Where's Bulma and Beet?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNsnPOz27W
Raditz had a cut on his cheek and some of his armor had been damaged. He took a moment to catch his breath.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggj3Uxkivg
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..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrQzlwe12D
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XqkSVIAse
Kakarot: “No…”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUNtRcL7gZ
Raditz limped behind him, putting his hand on his brother's shoulder.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkarG9qNo75
Raditz: “I'm terribly sorry, Kakarot. I found them like this by the time I arrived. I couldn't save them…”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSi2YTL02D
Kakarot: “No, no, no, no…. They should have come after me.. no..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtHaGh1yIK
He fell to his knees, and held his son in his arms.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DrU8JxfZC
Kakarot: “B-Beet… I should've been there, to protect you.. both of you.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3svcTn4PaC
Raditz: “It's a real shame… he cried out for his “Daddy” in his last moments you know.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmeoCrgxaw
Kakarot: “I wasn't there for him..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPB1zKp7DL
Kakarot froze for a moment. His eyes widened.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nZzU5x2i0
Kakarot: “You… You said you found them like this when you got here..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmdJOfssfe
Raditz: “Let this be my final lesson to you brother. Trust no one.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WGQf2awoC
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgtsMXX9IR
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRNx7xOuxG
Kakarot: “H-How.. c-ccould.. youuu..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUzf7OKfEb
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo73vhChFjt
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFSy2lxRSH
Raditz: “It's done, sir.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ761SVk2XWf
Vegeta: “What did you do?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZkgMRIqW5
Raditz: “I got rid of him and his boy for good. They will never get in our way again.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSzEs4QSJg
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zqTFF0scl
Raditz: “It is an honor.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCkkedVoQZ
Raditz bowed down in respect.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1Ffw86FPj
“Prince Vegeta! Our security has been breached! They're headed your wa-”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfWODJax56
The signal was cut off in a violent manner, before they had time to process the warning, something smashed through the entrance.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYU0chuBd7
Kakarot: “Y-You!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNEi63oieq
Raditz: “Impossible! He should've succumbed to his wounds!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VoO2Lhu1E
Kakarot took heavy breaths and struggled to stand.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWY63fjm4l
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlRPNhq3Qe
Raditz: “Right!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KmXrdI6sM
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T582Ffze4
Vegeta: “Nappa was a fool that let his emotions cloud his judgment.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRepYbUcSB
Kakarot: “He was your friend!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEHgV00o5W
Vegeta: “And he paid the price for it.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBccEHfFUva
Kakarot: “I l-looked up to you guys!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWYzbPfNrK
Tears ran down his face.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3bHsGzzEx
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?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGIbTS2w08
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJwETvwblV
Kakarot: “Haaaaa!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFcwgrhQny
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2c8rLZllUm
Raditz: “Vegeta!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkqjFNzF7y
Kakarot rushed Raditz, tackling him to the ground. He pounded his face a few times before grabbing a hold of his neck.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Kom63qMTd
Kakarot: “Why!? We're brother's! Why would you do this! You meant everything to me!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cqJ7Z108J
Raditz smirked.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4B8W3yfJe
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkaUHu1nCH
Kakarot: “So none of this ever really mattered, huh? I should've killed you back in our fight with Frieza!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69UUeYcTTY
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufq0IpyXaO
Kakarot: “Ha! Ha! Haa!! None of this matters huh? It never did! Nothing does!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMrecsMJVT
He pounded the ground.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkn9nkbHCi
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRyeOiHnFg
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeGuxIuUQW
Kakarot: “To fight!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6au2BJiL85
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECBbCpKSmq
Raditz: “B-Brother.. You w-wouldn't kill me.. right? I'm…all you have left.. p-please let me make things right..”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWADncn45Z
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent, remember?”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcQWT6n2mD
Kakarot chuckled and removed his fist. He blasted him away. Raditz's lifeless course collapsed to the ground.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQs4gvHZVrV
Vegeta: “Big Bang attack!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiItGJElSP8
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz825cjLEBQ
Vegeta: “Gaahh!!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqFQLbSure
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrX3j25Z9yX
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14o9KDbIbC
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.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLStfQdjwYg
Vegeta: “Wait!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUPmLhg5lU
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpwh2ElRrU
Kakarot: “After years of exploration and combat, I've finally made the time to gather them all together.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkR18je4dsv
The seven dragon balls glowed in union before the mighty shenron burst out from within them.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45vzkjjV31
Shenron: “Speak your wish.”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1ISAi7Bj7
Kakarot put his hand on a special vehicle he had beside him.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTU0CUJx8I
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!”
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL3yDtGqR6
Shenron: “As you wish."
