Frieza: “I almost feel some guilt having to do this, I'm aware you were one of our more loyal ones, Bardock.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiI58Rd044
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksavyUFqyL
Zarbon: “My lord, shall I dispose of this trash?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZqFiLKXV8
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpPklkN9yB
Frieza departed from his space pod, heading towards Bardock directly. They came face to face, only a few feet apart.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQfT7yJlTZ
Bardock: “Haaaa!!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Mat9X8xan
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2OGNjvAV2
Frieza: “All your efforts couldn't even leave a mere scratch, but how dare you lay your filthy hands on me!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZqMXH4Z2P
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7zowrNMRL
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSLmbSZUM5
A small pod zoomed past them from a considerable distance. Bardock watched it leave and smirked.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02qQB3x9Qv
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJNO2a6SgQ
Frieza: “Well if that's your dying wish, then I shall consider it.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk1sLQaf1S
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeuZHUxJip
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuO8KpEOatA
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00d22RN3PW
Frieza: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9VU7ibxzI
Bardock: “Go Kakarot…. Be the warrior I never could and show the world who you are!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMP28mRpMz
Bardock, along with his planet, perished becoming one with the empty, infinite space.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40sBB84439
“Your alliance has fallen, Commander. Teaming up with the government couldn't save you, you're out of options.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg7oPEHrpW
Commander Red: “You're..You're a monster!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd14dQv0f6H
“The world brought this upon itself when it decided to turn on me and reject me. This war was all because of you!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYv6ZM57J1
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaLIkL9Yl4
Kakarot crushed the severed head of an android that he held, with his bare hands.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡab6oPyPESu
Kakarot: “This world will never throw me aside again! For it now belongs to me! Kakarot!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPmryYzu6v
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVT8ERfiM0
“Damn it! The signal hasn't returned! Where are you? Kakarot!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtlLIhlyKY
Kakarot gently landed from the air.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa24JheCvcJ
Kakarot: “Bulma, it's over.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdGC0oyCR6
Bulma rushed towards him and greeted him with a tight hug.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBDT1guThc
Bulma: “I thought something had happened to you! Your signal cut off!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhzbF9K30d
Kakarot returned the affection before acknowledging her concern.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO3GsfNwiV
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAvYVgjQIc
Bulma looked down and sighed. Her grip on Kakarot loosened. Kakarot frowned, noticing her discomfort.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uyCzhVtrS
Kakarot: “What's wrong?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ntkBngYKY
Bulma: “I'm grateful for our freedom, but don't you wish this all could have been different?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6KzUzFLSQ
Kakarot: “I don't understand, what are you referring to?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDPDhOQ8F3
Bulma: “We destroyed many lives for the better of our own. I'm not sure I'm allowed to celebrate this victory…”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5xrLeleSn
Kakarot gently pulled her towards him, holding her by her hand.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0LRo0bV57
Kakarot: “What matters today is that we get to live in peace. We can have a future together at last.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9kEjOoPDx
Bulma: “Yeah.. I guess you're right. The world is our's now, where do we even begin?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRASzD0SzyQ
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBcChdLHrq
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRiGShD7zO
Kakarot: “Here it is, just as you asked, the largest boar I could find.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPZpnXhMo3
Kakarot put down the carcass of the freshly hunted boar.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaGvPNs6w5
Bulma: “Hey! You're getting blood on the floor! Leave it somewhere else!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5Feo1IWPq
Kakarot: “Jeez, fine I'll leave it outside in the meantime.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bKHWQ5Kzl
Bulma shifted her focus back to her personal project she had been working on.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurCIxwL9fD
Kakarot: “You've been cooped up here for a while, what exactly are you making?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MziOBESJN
Bulma: “It's a stretch, but have you ever wondered what lies beyond our world? Not just the galaxy but our universe as well.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA5ljjPo4I
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XbDRmKIXF
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPG6siHFU4
Kakarot: “So you're building a sort of vehicle I assume? What's that going to do?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPerEVDjnN
Bulma: “You could tell it's a vehicle from this small progress alone?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqaW9plaeC
Kakarot: “That's clearly an engine, not one from any current technology we have though. Okay..I confess, I occasionally tinker with your stuff.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDzObeyh8T
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OLQkYZFrH
Kakarot: “You're still bent on this..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWgF9LZOlZ
Bulma: “I just can't fathom why it doesn't bother you as much! Don't you feel any remorse for what we did?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnLRbLoD9Z
Kakarot: “We did what we had to, I took no joy in it, but it's what had to be done.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkoEdYn7iU
Bulma sighed and dropped her head.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoUL25JyVX
Bulma: “I should get to cooking that boar, I could use the break.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZ1U35pXe9
Kakarot: “Hm… Where's Beet?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9Cr2bwE8S
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWWLJnA99Y
Kakarot: “Looking for a good hunt I bet, I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8Wzjcg2Y0
Beet: “Haaa!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ivxFdUvwn
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZo1zd0oa2
Beet: “Darn! I should've picked a smaller one to challenge!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tvux0v53n
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UoCl6Jyeh
Kakarot: “You've still got a lot to learn boy.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kx2RAD86a
Beet: “You made it just in time sir!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd035I2Cuy1
Kakarot put his son down and faced the dinosaur.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ405AhVaYYS
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-”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMkQUWmcHJ
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdA53qqyXsE
Kakarot: “ …..If you take away its tail, it won't have anything left to defend itself with.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGuj8qpbYN
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN223KEFbcm
Kakarot: “Enough”!
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumRu0l6Nra
Beet: “Huh?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRvEfWAZsP
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWBMWLU6zQ
Beet: “But sir, you've let me hunt animals before! What's so different now?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXEgnsroJm
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2NQtmSrVA
Beet: “I'm sorry, sir.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VNBwObu1t
Kakarot: “Don't sweat it, let's head home already, we've got to help your mom prepare.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM378p2HUDs
Beet: “Right!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67dGS3aEjL
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzl39rJX4l
Bulma: “Honey, you're acting strange.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1685C1auW
Kakarot: “I think my stomach is just upset from the boar. Maybe you didn't cook it right.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79Z4qpHnRw
Bulma: “Hey! If you're going to be ungrateful then maybe I'll just let you starve next time!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aYYDTuy5x
Kakarot: “Nevermind.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNx5OIYi6H
Bulma's irritation dissipated, lowering her tone into a more gentle manner. She reached out and placed her hand on his shoulder.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGJUr1aNhK
Bulma: “If something is bothering you, you can always tell me.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHinr0ortMm
Kakarot: “.... Doesn't this ever get stale to you? A similar routine every single day?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEmpqvO0ot
Bulma: “I get to spend the day with you and Beet, we finally have the peace we always wanted, that's enough for me.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yLrJLuY8q
Kakarot: “I just think we could be doing more. I could be doing more. Is this really where my life peaks?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7XZeqVgW2
Bulma: “Is it so wrong to simply settle down and enjoy the family you've built?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQGNtacz86
Kakarot: “Perhaps helping Beet with his studies is getting to me.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYAZEUfVQ9
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLnegMdQv4
Kakarot: “Yeah.. I'll just sleep it off.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbfFz46Lcv

Somewhere on a nearby planet, an unforgettable nightmare was taking place. Three giant apes wreaked havoc upon the inhabitants of this world.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JsezpAqGP
“We have no other option, it's time we surrender.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxtLjZokZ8
“But my lord! We've already lost so many! We can't give in to their chaos when we've gone this far!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkJnuyloCe
“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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNR7XRQbAj
Colonel: “On it, my lord.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt53pl4vpK
The Colonel clicked on a button on a device he had strapped to his ear. He hesitated to speak before giving his final order.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGRXxpiiS8
Colonel: “Stand down boys, it's over..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYAFVCd8S8
The tension settled down as the apes reverted back into their natural forms.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxkMOXU31y
“I was starting to hope they'd just let us destroy all of them.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaq4gCe8SRR
The king himself confronted the deadly trio.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqzeyvE2vv
“King Tuffle, about time you come to your senses.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2m1XdtXWh
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyg7zvEVko
“Hand me the device on your eye.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXyeJoeNCq
The king hesitantly reached for the piece that rested on his ear and handed it over to the colonizer. He wore the device with a confident grin.

“Hey Raditz, we can finally track down your little brother with these huh? He may be a puny runt but another saiyan wouldn't hurt.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZBl1fHLZa
Raditz: “Yes, it's about time I pay him a visit!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAJd3SUFGw
Bulma: “Pass me the wrench, Honey!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAEPrUOs2C
Kakarot: “Give me a minute, I'm fixing something up over here.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXY7wFRqmt7
Kakarot twisted a bolt with the wrench before handing it over.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6kQlg0Wbf
Bulma: “Thanks! It's kind of weird seeing you use these tools when you're strong enough to use your bare hands.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLFpt67ydl
Kakarot: “I guess it's just more comfortable this way, it also helps me stop myself from accidentally breaking something.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEqw0TJ0w4
Bulma chuckled.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4RQlWAHki
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrG3kxKkVL
Kakarot: “It helps me relax, and if you really want to do this, then I'll support you.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzUXVW6X52
Bulma: “Where did this sweet attitude suddenly come from?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZdgJTgNSF
Beet: “Momm!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7e4B3H8eo
Bulma: “Hold that thought-”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡru9FYVuEGX
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJ2zVwLuJ8
Bulma: “My husband won't answer to you!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQKyyjV2qt
He rushed outside to inspect the commotion at hand.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZltofQns3L
Raditz: “There you are, Kakarot. This pesky woman was making this more complicated than it had to be.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw9pVjCYKk
The saiyan stood his ground. He gently pushed his family behind him and confronted the strange visitor.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokpGxD6h0a
Kakarot: “Who are you? And how do you know my name?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tbypY55b2
Raditz approached his oblivious sibling.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr5hzxfBxV
Raditz: “There's no reason to be hostile-”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8Do6CVG9u
Kakarot swung his fist towards Raditz's face. The saiyan moved his head out of the way with ease.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE085DSjYY5
Raditz: “You're testing my patience, Kakarot!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX4fd0sV5a
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3opfD8jgW
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNxKmTAY9p
Kakarot: “Enough!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaynybyPiN
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRjavsIhvk
Raditz: “Your attacks are not only slow, but predictable as well. You have the natural talent but you lack the proper training.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9XAgmYUYO
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGOmTdCwW3
Kakarot: “I couldn't even see him get behind me!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRivsHZyiV
Kakarot wiped blood off of his lip as he struggled to get up off of the ground.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOITIFux67h
Beet: “Sir!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmc9r5HcIFO
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbARfE9xH3
Bulma: “Beet!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxV8D9wFfx3
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84o3jmSJC1
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLztfZbWw1
Raditz: “Enough! You're stepping far out of your place! Fool!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdgOw7Yjaa
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehHDGbAd14
Raditz: “You're quite the hot headed bastard, little brother.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCmqpkjmoQ
Kakarot: “What? Brother?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjZpB2S8PG
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHv0zEf6Aa
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPfKSjVABp
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Msvpks8eu
Raditz: “Why do you even care? Those scum tossed you aside when you needed them. Whatever happens to them shouldn't concern you.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3f6iYiz7NS
Kakarot: “Why are you here? Brother.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7k0xBeIsH
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xHYP3NUJZ
Kakarot: “Recruit me for what?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBka2Ofcmr
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUd9xToNxL6
Kakarot: “Forgive me, brother, but I can't do it.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0GBkAarWm
Raditz: “Huh? Did you not just hear me? He took everything from us! His death must be by our hands!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoi4qzHtUxI
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKhtBIoOn4
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHnIoCp0vR
Kakarot turned to his wife, awaiting her approval. Bulma looked away and sighed for a moment before speaking up.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCJlOwezMc
Bulma: “Just no more fighting between you two, got it?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4REuEKLauN
Raditz: “You have my word.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNTaGbEH9m
Beet sat on a chair, pressing some ice against his cheek.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HHkGxyuP6
Beet: “You hit really hard uncle!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOIz0LQ2vi
He said in a mix of irritation and excitement.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlH8S1P1BW
Raditz: “Hehe, that's saiyan strength for you, brat!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcKyrOfZYp
Beet: “First Sir and now you, everyone is stronger than me! Well, except mom.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaeVZRpJSK
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmzdA5huoZ
Beet: “Heck yeah!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaae4WYYTb
Raditz chuckled.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9IX9JO1dM
Beet: “You've left that plate sitting there for a while now, uncle. Aren't you going to pick it up?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXfxqSoY8i
Raditz: “Why would I do that? Isn't that what your mother is here for?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KZ1mjF3z0
Beet: “Well, my parents say it's good manners to pick up after yourself once you're done eating.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDYw8EWJzo
Raditz: “You earthlings have bizarre customs.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqkwyTIGmS
Bulma: “Beet! It's bed time, you got school tomorrow!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwSl3ficsd
Beet: “But mom! It's still early, I wanna talk to uncle Raditz!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GIrPaNnvC
Bulma: “I said get to bed! Now!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h4dMXXLFy
Beet: “Sorry uncle, I gotta go.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75ic9b7WXx
Raditz: “Don't sweat it, kid, listen to your mother.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZfKfIZIH1
Beet marched into his room. Bulma pulled Kakarot close to her, speaking to him in a soft voice.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KQMjGb2kL
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZUH9gObSZ
Kakarot: “I’ll be fine, you go rest.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFDrhOHchO
They shared a kiss before parting ways. Kakarot approached his brother. They sat together in the living room, sharing an awkward silence.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TCkjDsz1Y
Raditz: ‘I see you got yourself a tough woman, little brother. Hehe, just how us saiyans like em!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwwlMEvHWp
Kakarot: “That explains a lot..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUt17Rrn8v
Raditz took a deep breath.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfljYIRjEy5
Raditz: “Follow me outside, little brother.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51eaqjEPhI
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrIhKVC28A
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsNSpgwvKC
Kakarot looked down at his fist in shame.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkBJc778vp
Raditz: “You feel it don't you, a calling greater than this piss poor excuse of a life you live.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcAeHEsJuS
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsoQGRGnEu
Raditz: “That's your saiyan spirit, your saiyan pride! Take advantage of it, it's your greatest weapon.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0esfKJn4p
Kakarot looked out into the starry, night sky.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6Lj2Nv4lV
Kakarot: “How many of us are left out there?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnDui0hZdd
Raditz: “Including you and I, there's four.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMp75mYA0V
Kakarot: “By any chance, is one of them our father?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpzjnSOXKP
Raditz: “I'm afraid not.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwviLNdGTp
Kakarot: “Did you know him?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOkwnNgVA0
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPVmdJ25xP
Kakarot: ‘Yeah… Maybe I do.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5liFolLdY
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1UrlKhJ06
Kakarot: “The prince?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eF0wlQeIA
Raditz: ‘I'll fill you in tomorrow, go rest, we have a long day ahead of us.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqJy90GBne
They descended from the sky and retreated back inside to sleep. The day couldn't have come sooner as Raditz prepared to depart.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIP42U11toc
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBsSqT7k9t
Kakarot: “You don't understand, this is my fight. That tyrant has to pay for what he did to my people.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxZCQRsdIy
Bulma: “They're not your people! They're colonizers! You're not like them!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4Z1yMDLm5
Kakarot: “….”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEkwCFJHrc
Bulma: “We're your people! Beet, me, our friends from the city!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuSs3Jb8lq
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d1CM2DY7u
Bulma hesitated to reply.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgMsZPu3WA
Kakarot: “Please, let me have this. I wanted a greater purpose, and I feel like this is it. I promise I'll return safely.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLF5tsWnd7y
Bulma: “Please, be careful, Kakarot.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKOXKolMNu
The pair shared a quick kiss before separating. Beet rushed to his father.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStg3mIUzZd
Beet: “Sir!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpewh3H3Xeh
He came face to face with his father.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8trPwPtaKZ
Beet: ‘Sir, please be back soon. I'll miss you.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYnXT57jqM
Kakarot gently patted his son's head and crouched to face him directly.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZgVL43BAD
Kakarot: “I'll be back before you know it, listen to your mother and look after her for me, okay?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfDn24InBz
Beet: “Yes! Sir.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHdyPejLGe
Kakarot retreated back to his brother.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90PoeNcOkA
Raditz: “Are you ready?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZz7Kwd6qUK
Kakarot: “Yeah, take me to the others.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWcTPtX1VB
Raditz: “It was a pleasure meeting you all, I'll bring him back in one piece haha!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGuzQOGd28
The brothers entered their pods, taking off into the vast space. Raditz communicated with his brother through a radio device within their pods.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAV9TNLeLKD
Raditz: “It's more comfortable than it looks huh?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIwGfCl7Kk
Kakarot: “Definitely. Tell me, brother, what are the others like?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVAxWGmOm2
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QlvBB6meE
Kakarot: “They sound amazing.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhmurxkAdC
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.’
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jk0qpZACc
Kakarot: “I can't deny, I am a bit excited.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVG0esiuukl
Raditz: “That's the spirit!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe9aTcY2M5
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jShKRXZFz
Kakarot: “You must be the prince, it's an honor to meet you.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9VFdvglY2
Vegeta: “You knew me before I even got to introduce myself, quite bizarre.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsu5AfetYX
Kakarot: “I guess the introduction was unnecessary, from just taking a look at you, I sensed it.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5NnNCJJWk
The prince glanced at the humble warrior, before kicking his face, landing him flat on his back.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPgtYW0QJP
Vegeta: “Stand up, boy. We're all warriors, are we not? Have some pride, don't ever lower your head to no one!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFH9cnTOhZm
Nappa: “Looks like the rookie is off to a bad start! Haha!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmygCuofRH
Kakarot rubbed his face, he was confused for a brief moment but soon understood the prince's intentions and abided to his command.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8QePvaePt
Vegeta: “Follow us, we'll fill you in inside the… battle station.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pmgVwvdLI
The prince hesitated.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4oQ061U0d
Vegeta: “Remind me again why we went with that name?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UtMuCbqmv
Nappa: “Haha, you see Raditz, I told you “Court Room” would've sounded much better!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCr0FDAEzY
Raditz: “Oh shut up you bald freak! Battle station is a fitting name!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEpKe3kjxs
Nappa: “Hey now! Don't come for my looks! Your freakishly long hair would make anyone want to go bald!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxiRPyDtIQ
Vegeta: “Pipe down boys, save that energy for the sparring session.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2h8Wl9BCj
Kakarot nudged his brother's shoulder. Raditz turned to his brother.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUazIoWpulc
Kakarot: “When I was at war with the earthlings, my wife and I referred to our base as the “Battle Station.”’
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDnT3DtBc3
He quietly mentioned. Raditz smirked.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeXRy5nYpE
Raditz: “I knew you'd understand!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRh4kacdqs
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZFSbJaVHM
Vegeta: “I'm sure Raditz already let you in on some of the details, correct?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NOtsaBObu
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UTNgmpZ5k
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAMmciljjw
Kakarot: “Understood. So, where do we begin?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5JKD0OHBs
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgE2C3VfGko
Kakarot: “If they don't submit, what happens then?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkB6oxCMJs
Nappa: “What is this weirdo babbling about? We kill them of course!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3Rpg57Te9
Kakarot: “Is it.. really necessary?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPKLEND7rs
Nappa: “You can't be serious!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNHpXrnKPv
Vegeta: “Raditz, may I speak with you, in private?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRWnYHDTcG
Raditz: “Yes, prince.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYz7qgr9aia
The two stepped out for a moment, leaving everyone else in suspense.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNzLE0g6h6
Nappa: “Looks like someone's in trouble haha!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZl4QSivuK
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlLlOAT6k8
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdJWAdZAwB
Vegeta: “As you wish. I trust you won't let me down.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyTXpf9ptL
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHmA4vUJj2
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqoCvMxdrC
The group retreated from their meeting room and headed outside. Kakarot caught up to his older brother and spoke with a troubled tone.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpUKOes5WR
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKPfPPypk8
Raditz: “I'm sure you had to get your hands dirty to conquer your world. Why is this any different?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ29ydNlDBZ
Kakarot: “I fought for my freedom, not for meaningless violence!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxuaC0wr86
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqi1Sz5Ve8
Kakarot: “Well, it makes sense when you put it that way.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlgb3QYoph
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhMHQKlBLw
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEe0cGtob2
Kakarot: “Now that you mention it, I can't contain the excitement. I heard Vegeta mention something about sparring.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JFdiUQ6GE
Raditz: “Oh yes, we have a special room for sparring.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRGPwMkwUk
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyLt2YmzAY
Raditz: “I see, well, we can spare a few minutes before we depart from this planet. Let's get it on!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVpT7MDqeL
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkViET5POPL
Powerful shock waves swept surrounding rubble into the air. A few more shockwaves shook the area before Kakarot came tumbling to the ground.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI9qXO8D91
Raditz: “You're improving faster than I imagined.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD13I2wXae
Kakarot: “Hmph, I can't say it doesn't bother me that you have to hold back just for me to keep up.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEDOsxTGxJ
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3pcdo3RWA
Kakarot: “What do you have in mind?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNtH5S8qTV
Raditz: “Watch and learn, baby bro!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dvNxVIXpx
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxxWZ2WGDt
Kakarot: “What was that?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj06rppsN6t
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXt43ime1t
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqJ4V82m9j
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFSsaLrd9h
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80nX7nW0Vu
Raditz: “You're quite odd for a saiyan if I'm being honest.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGkFyXM4AR
Kakarot: “I guess I just feel like I owe it to them after everything we've been through.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFt2eqg6jZ
Raditz: “I'm starting to feel like this dream of peace of yours isn't living up to the expectations you had in mind.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2HN1Ejgop
Kakarot: “You know, I really thought coming here with you guys would have cured this sensation, but I still can't shake the feeling.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPWY2qdxoq
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7VKF3dZyH
Kakarot: “If you say so..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSk6q4s0FSt
“Raditz, Kakarot.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWGy21kP3u
A voice called out from the scouter on Raditz's eye.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolabJxBoR0
Raditz: “Vegeta, we're on our way! Kakarot, it's time to go.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oMDL5vE5E
Kakarot nodded and followed his brother. They headed to their pods, where the other two saiyans awaited next to their own.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpJT0OgQKr
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCwJEE3lQT
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.

Nappa wiped sweat off of his head.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVCwhMPa12
Nappa: “The heat over here is unbearable! It's if we were directly in the sun!”

Raditz: “Those schemers must've planned this to buy some time for some counter plan!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvvqvpjrEZ
Kakarot examined the ground. A few pebbles and some rubble trembled off the ground. He felt a subtle shake.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeKDCTBd5n
Kakarot: “Something's coming from beneath us!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLHafSJhm2
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEO4IQ1ZdB4
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYTQzASVa3
The creatures remained in a suspended animation-like state. Vegeta's eyebrow twitched in irritation.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jdS6nVZVc
Vegeta: “These incompetent fools are mocking us!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z16pLIbWp
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgD61xF9Is
“Your foot is on my tail!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy81bfqX3T
“Your tail shouldn't be there then!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0L6FjbzAWk
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU83bjrVuxH
Raditz: “These numbskulls are nothing but barbaric creatures that give into their primal urges. They're useless to us!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYVaGNyMRH
Vegeta: “Hmph.. Well, not entirely. Kakarot!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZs9rxIqaIh
Kakarot: “Yes, Vegeta?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nF95DQ05u
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZtO1hZhuv
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TnNsn75oE
Raditz: “What? Got cold feet all of a sudden?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8GBPSJiIR
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrELx9TrlSD
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZz2mmaCYX
Kakarot couldn't dare to face his brother in the eyes. The guilt he felt knowing Raditz was right was overwhelming.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDZeKvZSlm
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUvwuky4Vw
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NgUxUjG4e
Vegeta: “You're starting to seem like a real saiyan. Don't get too cocky though, always watch your blind spot.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRQFK36sEc
Kakarot smiled.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuuFB1Hd5Z
Kakarot: “Understood!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhsi1S8Q10
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe17prBfOpy
Vegeta: “What the hell?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSftbouoJna
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVibbec412
Nappa: “Could that be, Amaterazu?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrQIDl04Qh
“I am Modora! The most powerful of the Tatsu race! No one wreaks havoc upon MY planet without getting through me!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrQHZIqSZe
Raditz: “Looks like we got ourselves an even larger hot head. He won't do us any better than the rest.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSs8exP2alv
Kakarot: “I'll fight him!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztA8YZO945
Everyone turned to Kakarot in surprise.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQQRBvSdff
Kakarot: “I'm not done fighting! He'll be MY opponent!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9S1EkpmhW
Vegeta chuckled.

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcf29mxo1T
Modora: “You'll be my first victim then, give me your worst!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yyuc1hur4
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbN9fhmbKru
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTPR1bsWJV

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡko173dPV1X
Vegeta: “You might have to step in.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxSeePdDdp
Nappa: “Poor runt, his first big shot is against someone out of his league, hehe, what a shame.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRfPcLCpE1
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qLf32fdGi
Kakarot: “Come on now, don't back down so soon!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiGOS5sqZn
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.

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7zMl1tDCD
Nappa: “That's nonsense! Let me see.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPsavF9xJ8
The elite's scouter scanned the low class warrior, revealing the shocking revelation that his power had shot up drastically.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWZEd29GTY
Vegeta: “It looks like he's putting on quite the spectacle.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0qIvZuJTT
Raditz watched in disbelief. He questioned the situation, pondering about it in his mind.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhboDvAziRX
Raditz: “He's not just getting stronger, he's improving too. He never demonstrated this level of proficiency before!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPjKVxePYj
Modora huffed, taking a moment to catch his breath. Kakarot used the opportunity to catch a break as well.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj4MZVEwQh
Modora: “All that and you still can't finish me, I think it's about time I bury you!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpod1cJZSe
Kakarot: “So it's come to this point at last. I've been anticipating this moment!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cjQXmrhpR
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvUKCDFiei
Kakarot: “This will be your funeral!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcOp5JNvjN
Modora lowered his hand, shooting down a burst of fire.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ469D28FYed
Modora: “Deadly incineration!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrpedx9uqX
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDA1NoBGmml
Raditz: “You sly little bastard, looks like you came up with your own move.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoi31T2cdX
He took a peek at his injuries.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXpDSJQkJb
Raditz: “Your body has already begun its recovery process so soon, that's odd.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbjMz48HAl
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcTKIK357f
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBkHjTGACa

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzx3070NifL
Kakarot: “Huh?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPORZncGMdE
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPI1rhNdgul
Raditz: “Why you!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20apAjEWOL
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8ViQ9177m
Raditz: “Kakarot! Answer me!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmT4FMag3F

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9iNhpy7BZ
Raditz: ‘Right!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNaUfJDJyb

Kakarot: “R-Raditz, am I… gonna be okay?”

Raditz: “Pipe down little man, you're fine. It's a common occurrence with us.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrnPQrZP33
Raditz remained composed but his thoughts quickly ate away at him.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLSBzwRKU9
“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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTiWaqitvR
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoLwaVhSEp
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvQORd4xfo
Raditz: “I'm positive.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pTLgogZz9
Doctor: “Well, it looks like his body has recovered enough to dismiss any urgent treatment.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKgkXHGqff
Raditz: “I see, that's all then I guess. I'll be making my way out. Make sure he gets everything he needs.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuQXsd4zMO
Doctor: “I will sir.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvjWsnlb5R
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVg7tclxMIt
Raditz: “You're awake, it's about damn time.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDO7TYeKvE
Kakarot: “Brother, what happened? I remember defeating Modora and then suddenly I just.. blacked out.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ444wODPpFk
Raditz: “You let your guard down and that creature used the chance to leave a nasty mark on you.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqLngaXuuc

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf69JxNRJUk
Raditz: “That's what's got me confused too.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tltgZBAXV
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMsKExwy2w
Raditz: “Haha! Don't get too ahead of yourself now, you still need more to catch up to me.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PQ3JOXVP5
Kakarot: “When is our next crusade?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnLYqTZmeL
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGrirCcDGK
Kakarot: “If that's the case…perhaps we could stay on earth, don't you think? It could make the perfect base!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgtJgFP900
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2x1f0hmBV
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10tpUBc0ll
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8G5zmktSz
Kakarot: “Are you saying you never loved a woman?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkx8rtxrUu9
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXD4LL7LFss
Kakarot: “It seems I still have a lot to learn about our traditions huh?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVSSa3z7DF

Kakarot: “We'll be fine, I'll make sure of it.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjGSj33AdR
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdozPQLFP4
Kakarot: “When we win.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ780qd3KFMV
Bulma: “And what considers us the winners? What happens when survivors of their conquests come looking for revenge?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBtmI926FZ
Kakarot: “I’ll stop them.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7CVXPH6z4
Bulma: “It isn't just about you, don't you get it? You have a family now! When did you become so selfish?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnRjkg0c8g
Kakarot: “Is it so much for me to want to live amongst others of my kind?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpitiGOTXwP

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpR9hWvd7zP
Kakarot turned away to face the door.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8UNxrjzrG
Kakarot: “You know I'll always keep you guys safe, but I'm done rejecting my wishes, my calling.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfXR7XGmfG
He walked out without looking back or showing any interest in doing so.

Kakaort: “Come with me, let me introduce you to the others.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI8H0hv485
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORrJV1a5UT
Beet: “Sir! What's going on over there?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4omJfGjXK
Kakarot: “It's… renovation. Our new family is settling in. It will all be fine when it's over okay?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvXMhNbKe5
Beet: “But they look scared, Sir.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡix8HdzLsUM
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxS3R0J48yK
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkhVE8SmEr
Raditz: “Kakarot, we've been waiting for a cool minute now!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwaoM0l1u0
Kakarot: ‘My apologies, I had some other business to attend to. As you all requested, I've brought my boy. Beet, these are the last remaining saiyans. They're like you and I, you'll learn a lot from them as I have.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheEJuL31VY
Raditz: ‘Well, pipsqueak, come greet the rest of the gang!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMMlhvnr32
Beet's mood brightened after hearing the comforting voice of his beloved uncle. He rushed to the others, eagerly introducing himself.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvb8mQxkyQp
Beet: “I'm Beet! I've heard a lot about you guys, you're all so awesome in person!”

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekl7csUxT1
Vegeta: “So, you're the son of Kakarot. He was conceived with an earth woman, am I right?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFfeVub3AI
Kakarot: “Yes, that's right. That would make him a half blooded saiyan if I'm not mistaken.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKroyvRsuTi
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCpWsRdlDS
Vegeta looked down at the cheerful boy.

Vegeta walked up to Raditz, getting close to his ear.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx6EHynG5J
Raditz: “I don't get it, what's so special about that kid for you to demand something so meaningless?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6RGO0YLZl
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUlLp2lf8H
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince, but I'm not entirely sure if I'm okay with using my nephew as an experiment…”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFjyVqpiwE
Vegeta: “Don't tell me your brother's earthling values are rubbing off on you, Raditz.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTP1M9TZ6k
Raditz: “No. Of course not..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUlX82yaIs
Vegeta: “Then do as I say, prove to me you're deserving of the position I've been offering you.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDWsAjLNIz
Raditz: “I will..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqI7yD7NBQg
Raditz turned to his comrades.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdor4urfPDf
Raditz: “I will be taking Beet into the battle chamber. You're all excused to leave.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAFQdmeXyy
Kakarot: “Hold on! I can't just let you take my son without me!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcZYgKe7zj
Vegeta: “Calm down, boy. This is the reason I asked to meet him. Besides, it's in our tradition to not question our superiors.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOArbL3NnH
Raditz put his hand on his brother's shoulder.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5zgoldQ4m
Raditz: “He'll be okay, think of it as special training.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34X1RhtY5B
Kakarot hesitantly nodded.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6XhwseSs6
Kakarot: “Go with your uncle, Beet. Have fun, okay?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G5JAlXm14
Beet: “I will, Sir!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpK7TIVdfo
Kakarot: “I'll be outside.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYSUA37YKc
Beet: “Okay!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlpQXnXkbD
Raditz: “C'mon now, let's go.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtd7cRNz8Ca
Beet followed his uncle into the training room.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsceEil349
Raditz: “That's pathetic! You can do better than that!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGATReGVVbP
Beet forced his legs up. He wiped blood off of his lips.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTWfc7W75D
Beet: “I'm going to be strong, like you and Sir!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78P0rlevzn
The boy lunged himself forward, giving his uncle everything he had. Raditz smacked him away with a backhand.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUN0VEnqF3U
Raditz: “You're nothing but a runt, you'll never be like your father.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwLVBDZBgj
Beet: “Th-That's! …Not trueeee!!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyObUgb6EM
Beep! Beep! Beep!!
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawgtVS33Ue
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgg1Xy5ejA
Raditz: “That's… Impossible!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdRjB80ddY
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9WsP0p3p6
Raditz: “That's enough, pipsqueak. I'll take you back to your father alright?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP00GDkE3hb
Beet: “O-Okay.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEslpFr4GMX
Beet collapsed to the ground. Raditz lifted his nephew and returned him to his father.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZLYHC4k1g
Kakarot: “What happened?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1GqzYViT2
Raditz: “The boy is fine. Head home Kakarot, take the day off.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFTDIAzW0J
Kakarot: “What about the settlement? Won't you guys need my assistance? I know this place better than you all.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCDsluw6U7
Raditz: “We can take it from here, just go.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkAG7PKSlZ
Kakarot: “Fine.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp3i8K2wZr
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GOZF90dKu
“What could he want with that boy? Should I tell Kakarot?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9LSAj75Dv
He snapped out of his head upon reaching the Prince.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5nYUL5ZWo
Raditz: “Vegeta, I've gotten a proper measure of his strength.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv3YGmLaM3
Vegeta: “What did the scouter say?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyKLpDo4k2
Raditz: “It… It exceeded 10,000..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtAeHoYuJx
Vegeta: “It looks like my suspicions were correct after all.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tnDumSWpf
Raditz: ‘What's going on? I don't understand what you're getting out of all this!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHL0BqXM57
Vegeta: “You know it's not tradition to question me, Raditz.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZilhR4cdR6
Raditz: “I'm sorry, Prince.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45pxtcOayP
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpw0OlXldnK
Raditz: “I swear on everything, I'll remain loyal to you and only you!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEhd2iFk5m
Vegeta: “Good. Keep the following between us then. I had a slight suspicion that the hybrid could actually be STRONGER than a full blood.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4Pnmoz2Vt
Raditz: “But how is that even possible? With such weak genetics, wouldn't it only bring a saiyan down?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhV1b3GCZz5
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVggdVkMO0Z
Raditz: “You mislead the rest to save your reputation then?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3C48aC6AV
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuW2PBxi38
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0MgIZbJBR
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjFTQtaKjJ
Raditz: “Understood.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnALmxLI7oq
Vegeta: “You're dismissed.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYZwnxRhgd
Raditz departed from the room.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UJQqBBaAE
“Haaaa”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKux0EpmHuO
An explosion erupted. A warrior with battle armor and a spear went flying from the impact. He slammed to the ground and laid unconscious.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapjawQX08G
Raditz: “Nice one, brother! Don't forget what I taught you.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7DEqVXURR
Kakarot: “Right.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHw8WIPcI5C
Kakarot lifted the defeated warrior from his head and blasted a hole through his chest with an energy attack.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHFZtNg9oJ
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent. I won't make that same mistake again.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb6TniJlH4
Raditz: “As it should be! Glory comes from victory and victory isn't certain until your opponent is eliminated permanently!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAfcvnrCRj
Kakarot: “A lot of talking, brother! Let's get back to fighting!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF7N9H3IKU
Raditz: “Hehe, you rascal.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yGCplg9dr
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1FJydl2YV
Kakarot: “Bulma, I'm home. Prepare me a nice meal, why don't you?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iW3w96xjQ
Bulma: “I made some miso soup earlier, enjoy the leftovers.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLux6rda9nI
Kakarot: “What's with the attitude?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMF6V0LI8g
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKgxWX7O9P
Kakarot: “We're not having the conversation again!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6A5QzJQwCP
Bulma: “We'll have it as many times as we need to until you get your act right!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjt2XbTAmF
Kakarot stared at her in silence. Beet entered the room, returning from outside. He instantly caught on to the tension between his parents.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiD5VgbU4t
Beet: “Is everything okay?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpO2xGOEgj
Kakarot: “Yeah, we're all good.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemaF1KGvFp
He replied, still staring at his clearly upset wife.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqV1bqHAPJv
Beet: “I'm not dumb! I know you guys are fighting again! Why? Why can't you guys just get along like before?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUWzbhUoHW
Bulma: “Sweetie, we aren't fi-”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2YofxKY0j
Beet: “You're lying! Stop lying! I miss you, Sir, stay home today, please?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjscez3uYHG
Kakarot frowned before nodding his head.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtCxiU30Wp
Kakarot: “Fine. Fine, I'll spend the night, okay?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jWrPW2ytP
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEup6F0k3mX
Bulma: “You just couldn't help yourself, huh?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJetl7RDRz
Kakarot turned around.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKVbIFesCz
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHi8ZPqbMv
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx2pttj7YA
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgyrRa3sAX
Kakarot: “I couldn't possibly forget.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LpVRRUjgy
Bulma: “We looked out for each other ever since. We loved each other! Where did that go?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwFZ4wu8AQ
Kakarot remained silent. He simply frowned.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCGkpGOXwq
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwRyH2a3sx
Kakarot: “Hmph… I've recently been wondering why I still bother to stop by here myself.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JuUYa0FFj
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0At7q3iFt
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJN3WjVxvhh
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwbw5nHIIl
Colonel: “Yes? Prince?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV2k9OSrS2
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhKtXcdisC
Colonel: “Understood…Sir.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1IQ4KYGNl
Kakarot tapped his brother's shoulder.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCj0mzznLp
Kakarot: “Are you excited? Brother?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRSNSvqvG7
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnZuWEuhos
Kakarot: “Right!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXj3cC9otk
Vegeta: “Kakarot.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrU1vZ0VD9
Kakarot: “Yes?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAyWd9YLAz
Vegeta: “You'll be with Nappa and I.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpBeijFfJi
Kakarot: “Oh, w-wow! It is an honor, Prince Vegeta!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxPNxOTLkF
Raditz: “Huh? But you said I'd take that role!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6G32I6vaV
Vegeta: “Kakarot surpassed you a while ago, I'm not taking risks with an inferior saiyan.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuBByCRbXX
Raditz clenched his fists. He gave his brother a spiteful glare before taking a few breaths.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOODJKR0xqo
Raditz: “As you wish, Prince. I'll take Kakarot's task.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXR2tK20d0x
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8UDcTzpCN
Raditz: “I'll see you all later.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz67FiZsNjQ
Kakarot: “Raditz!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfywcvobCLD
Raditz turned to his brother.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOhiLIaJpJ
Kakarot: “Be careful.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMbknfRyQx
Raditz: “Right..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrZdAelJEr
Raditz took off with his pod.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fSvWYGirs
“Someone is entering the atmosphere!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16L1VxForb
“Let me take a look.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwT2d2VRqWC
Beep! Beep! Beep!
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUaVDL73Xc
“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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTM7gYfqZT
Zarbon approached the landing vehicle. The pod met its destination and out came Raditz from inside.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqXDo4KhJ6
Raditz: “Greetings, Zarbon.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYKrZz0VAR
He bowed in respect.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtLSAxpS7I
Zarbon: “At least you know your place.. State your business, saiyan!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfdSauMmMu
Raditz: “The prince would like to speak with the lord.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GPrIQdXEc
Zarbon: “You know he can't come barging in on such short notice! Especially since our lord is quite busy right now.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANEgZ91EzG
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUgXxbygpb
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9lDzeR2ja
Raditz: “As you wish.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9HXVoVQml
Zarbon signaled for him to stand and follow his lead.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYvL5E8iCD
Nappa: “So once he gives the signal, we make our move?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MuIvaTwmk
Vegeta: “Precisely.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9AdZHntJk
Nappa: “What exactly is the signal?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWgQRR98zd
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabOvdF3QKZ
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHiDjseiKR
Zarbon took his leave.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCgh6f8lom
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHuAGSh4T6
Raditz sat patiently, noticing one of the guards peeping at him. He turned his gaze to the guards direction.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf5q3LTRXC
Raditz: “Ya got a problem? Fool!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeBhtvqwFi
Guard: “You won't be this bold when Lord Frieza arrives!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11cfQPaD81
Raditz chuckled.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3CMAeW2c0
Raditz: “Yeah. We'll see.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvHJ9ULN8E
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbro2mlWI0U
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7yvn3iV18
Beep! Beep! Beep!
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhz9E1VZJY
Raditz: “He's here…”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFX4I3WHBg
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp19oUv8Apc
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemqsttp0W4
Vegeta: “It's time! Let's end this!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFOCRJanap
The saiyans commenced their transformation as their ship rapidly approached the planet's atmosphere.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb8QbWUKu6
Zarbon: “I warned you, saiyan!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0sh4u1SWw
Raditz: “It's too late now, pretty boy! Frieza is finished!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAIvCH0Spm
Dodoria entered the room with a sinister laugh. Raditz’s eyes widened, he felt his soul leave his body for a moment.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiVcAOTpMm
Dodoria: “Surprised to see me?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRKSdaUIob
Raditz: “N-No! This can't be!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOc7VZJLW6
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMP7NfkXxXi
Vegeta: “Hehe.. That fool never saw it coming!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5KIrN4CjY
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YROs9Dk0h
Vegeta: “Here lies the foolish emper- What?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEMtv1Vi9s
Vegeta desperately searched through the remains.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvRjaKQJbl
Nappa: “What's wrong? Vegeta?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqNgQAErbC
Vegeta: “This ship… I-It's a decoy!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGpsQ0jtRG
Kakarot: “What! That means-”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FB7qYj3N6
“Quite the bold attempt I must say. You know, I knew you'd turn on me one day, Vegeta.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3pnog7tqu
Vegeta: “Frieza!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt3IKumZXT
Dodoria: “Looks like your little plan didn't go out as you expected!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7QWKv31rr
Raditz: “Damn it!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWamTMCcsO7
Zarbon: “Do us all a favor and don't resist. You know it'll only end up being futile in the end.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzdpZmI4XB
Raditz: “I guess I don't got a choice huh?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMnoZ1wkN3
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjbpd5KIdP
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntx2hNs360
Vegeta: “No! It's not over! Not yet! We'll just have to destroy you the old fashioned way.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlmg4XYCeD
Frieza: “I'd love to see how that plays out.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcvxVgm71t
Dodoria: “Rrraaaaa!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetyZCbBq9b
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdlOGs6wG2
Raditz: “Eat this! Weekend!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ulg8rsD4N
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXzdWjpm3J
Dodoria: “What the hell? How did he get so powerful? Something must be wrong!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMNhR2iAL7
Zarbon: “Let me check the scouter.”

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pz02UIixU
Zarbon: “His power level is 35,000!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQFL1rGU9d
Dodoria: “But Raditz has always been a weakling! How is that possible?!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkwFmNnbqa
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSSrSvN6hx
Dodoria: “Oh great, first I get showed up by some low class saiyan, and now I have to work with you. Just my luck.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B9v2swWW4
Zarbon: “I'm not so thrilled to fight alongside someone as repulsing as you either.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKjzUlU09w
Dodoria: “Whatever, let's get this over with!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGeLHfD0qV
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBZzMVlCdK
Raditz: “I can't take them both like this. I have to get rid of one of them first.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcrjj73Cth

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsY6FTRjXKm
Dodoria: “Why you!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fV2hurdOS
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dEeWOENmx
Raditz: “Got somethin in your eyes?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mwJkCMb6R
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSntcvMEaf
Zarbon: “Damn it! It's really come to this hasn't it? Take a good look saiyan, this is the last thing you'll ever see!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnNxJhXRgD
The loyal soldier clenched his fists, his body enlarged itself, revealing a hideous and monstrous look. His power level skyrocketed.

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWro30hT3n
Frieza: “Ho! Ho! Ho! Give it your best shot, monkey.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4824eM3eVo
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCK8pLxegwV
Frieza: “Haaa!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kn5mNgzkJ
The tyrant blew away his surroundings with his explosive power, relieving himself from Vegeta's pressure.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk0IrPdO2l
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFIGyWNUhX
Vegeta: “So you concede to my might?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1aCzrsoUv
Frieza: “No, no. On the contrary, this is the perfect opportunity to get in a good workout. Consider this a privilege, Vegeta. You're the first to see this form.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7czQDxtb4Y
Vegeta: “Huh?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SpzSCR2Vc

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3GblkWz79
Raditz: “Ggaaahhh!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9PhAjGynQ
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Lg4B1eHDb
Zarbon: “Haha! You're starting to wear out, saiyan!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5tl2K0Ire
Raditz: “It's a pain to admit, but he's more powerful than I am. If I draw this out any longer, he's going to kill me! I need a different approach.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6mjdpmosS
Raditz detonated a ki blast in front of the 2 of them, creating a blinding smoke cloud. He ascended higher into the air.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qtmkg2ihO
Raditz: “Scatter Shot!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7liGR3aspX
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFguZUoFOd3
Zarbon: “I think we've been at this game long enough!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8BMVUVeSG

Frieza: “Haaaaaaa!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ740ZAvmV
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMHfImoOgg
Frieza: “Sorry for the wait, you'll soon find out it was worth the suspense.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhiOYS7tlO
Vegeta: “You've had a power up like this all along, and we never knew…”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCh18AcdtXl
Frieza: “Oh this isn't a power up, prince. The form you saw before was but a mere mask, a method of concealing my true power to not accidentally blow away this solar system.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSMvtKccuo
Kakarot: “Vegeta! We can't cave into the pressure! We must see this till the very end!”

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqhVS9y1b9
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7djoF53M4x
Raditz: “Frieza's off guard, this is our chance!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡey34bUnUbV
He charged an attack with all of his might and shot a blast from his mouth towards the tyrant.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rthEyosHS

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtWgzAlz3a
Without further hesitation, the others hit Frieza with an all out blast of their own, caught in between two powerful attacks, the mighty emperor suffered a devastating blow. The smoke cleared and Frieza collapsed to his knees.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegsjevpMIY
Frieza: “Y-You-”

Frieza: “There's no point in playing around, I can't risk it with these monkeys! I have to use my final form!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SNDV4Qo8H
Frieza stood and chuckled. His irritation faded away, shifting into a sinister smile.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KYhf6Aggq
Frieza: “I'll spare you the suspense. I guess I must reveal my truest form off the bat!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRssCRGh5P
Kakarot: “Not again!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iOKYFNl4Z
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVUbINtTPR
Vegeta: “Quick! We must turn into great apes while we still have the chance!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYerUDYZwDT

Frieza: “You had your chance, monkeys. Now it's my turn!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqBQlR5Kre
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69CB5oYcpW
Kakarot: “Look out!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKhvh2JJuE
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvKNubf2pL

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0mxL2jSUI
The loyal saiyan drew his final breath, succumbing to his injury.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OmiogyGwu

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0Ys97GY9e
Frieza: “What? Were you all left petrified by my power?”

Kakarot: “I'm about to show you exactly who I am!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1I9mVDUkx
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteAS8rwUVo
Frieza: “Done playing around yet? Vegeta?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe68RdgK7g5
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4gX7gZ8pT
Raditz: “Double Sunday!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEq07wWNalg
Raditz unleashed his most devastating move. Frieza stopped it and dispersed the attack with a single hand. He flicked his hand towards himself, pulling Raditz closer with telekinesis.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILfllyHgIP
Raditz: “I-I can't move!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtq3Rzzd0N

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpJDRf91db
Kakarot burst out into the scene out of nowhere, and swung at Frieza with a kick. Frieza barely managed to evade the attack.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIps126cKbD
Frieza: “You again!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrHCGHbMex
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtX5UDNRX6n
Frieza: “You actually made me raise my guard. Interesting.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLb1WOUlzL
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKjQ8Srwp7
Frieza: “What? I don't understand! There's something different about you!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QlGVTKlGm
Kakarot landed a knee to Frieza's gut. He balled up his hands together and slammed them into Frieza's back. Frieza fell straight down but caught his balance before crashing against the ground.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuyTGIZC6E
Frieza: “You dare lay your hands on me!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNz8oxaGHAn
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANkQIdMhMN
Frieza: “This isn't right! I broke you! I felt it in every attack! You shouldn't even be standing!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFJ95c4IB6
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYYagfJUQ6
Raditz: “Is that really him?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dH1fFSB3I
Kakarot: “F-Friezaaaa!!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwo4lMGIM2
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x6j0AKBkS
Frieza: “No! No!! You're… the super saiyan! There's no other explanation for this!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUXtyZ0GfG
Raditz poked a button on his scouter.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PsUwzcX88
Raditz: “Vegeta! Is what I'm hearing true? Has Kakarot truly become a super saiyan?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQHQTTX9PJ
Vegeta was snapped out of a trance.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDO17hpa2it
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ArHp4Io9n
Raditz: “But how does that even happen?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpmi5UGVh4
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYzLSNhPiA
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcKzIPeCZE
Frieza: “I'll just have to wipe you out along with this planet!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYSVA9X1Sh
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWe37Eo03gF
Vegeta: “Galick Gun…Fire!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPoKuWX1CM
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo03VSVxBGY
Frieza: “You've asked for it! This is my full power!! Haaa!!”

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzMxGqjR6H

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCTjmvDKy5
Vegeta: “It's still not enough!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkZ7kalzZq
A projectile darted to Frieza's head, slightly discombobulating him.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWw21WOGdtS

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKvpMJ6CtB
“Haaaaaa!!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFvzITcVvp
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.

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUZk2yZ3VG

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0HP4D7qFc

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvsBID7rB0
Kakarot rushed to his brother, preparing to follow up his beat down. Raditz caught his balance and leaped into the air, escaping him momentarily.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDr0u0To84L
Raditz: “Kakarot! It's me! Raditz! I know you're in there!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hEIXLTXlq

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlA9u3Fwws

411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmD3LU2HZAo
Raditz: “Stay back! V-Vegeta! I c-can handle this!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7vTvHr6VU
Kakarot squeezed his head, attempting to crush it entirely.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieUueZllZA
Raditz: “K-Kakarot… Don't do this! Your boy, your woman! They're waiting for you back home! P-Please Kakarot! It's me, your brother!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZD5D9LcKZ
Kakarot's grip loosened but he continued to hold his brother in a lethal position.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkJ3E7Wd7a
Raditz: “Fight for your consciousness, brother! You can overcome your overwhelming power and make it yours!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lz6pNtXve

Frieza: “Don't just toss me aside like some insignificant trash, you bastards!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTceHwqrbys
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.

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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasm0YN0wL9
Frieza: “You're… No! But I killed him! Wait.. that means you're-”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAK4gyAy95
Kakarot: “My name.. is Kakarot! And in the name of the saiyan race, I'm going to send you straight to hell!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4vkWVPUZp
Kakarot finished Frieza with a blast that disintegrated every last remnant of him.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIFqnPJKsi
Kakarot: “It's done…”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIdJGppY5L
Raditz: “He he he, Ha! Ha! Ha! We've won!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx1Ftj2hCb
Vegeta ascended into the air.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFMQClA2Iq
Vegeta: “Everyone! Listen up! Frieza is dead! Head back to the ship! I'll finish the rest!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweF1e4tsrE
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsfo52xoYF
Colonel: “Prince Vegeta! What about the survivors? I thought the plan was to end every last one!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2j1o5BCdG
Vegeta: “Of course, I've left them a little present.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTwYuSQmDB
The remaining soldiers of the Frieza force watched as a small shard of ki sank into the planet.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVrWMdgtBv
Vegeta: “Enjoy the fireworks.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlaoRA8EE4
The planet exploded leaving no trace of its existence behind. The men cheered, the Colonel shook the prince's hand.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhay2Ad22A
Colonel: “It has been an honor serving you.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0c9D4mUsn
Vegeta: “As promised, you'll be with us from now on.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiNBQuRcn8
Colonel: “And the rest of the Tuffles?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidFGs5LcCv
Vegeta: “I have a purpose in mind for those inferior people.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOShUxxKvQC
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZ49RfApqh
Kakarot: “That power I felt earlier, I don't understand it, brother. Normally these experiences are exhilarating, but this, it was maddening, terrifying even.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9d8aIDmIu
Raditz: “I don't quite understand it either, but that power avenged our people. You've fulfilled your destiny, right?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQxzZt7PSv
Kakarot: “Yeah… I guess I did.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjbpGdWpD4
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhRyxBoBpg
Raditz: “Good day, Prince, how may I be of service to you today?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNrh7hLGrP
Vegeta: “Your brother put on quite the spectacle yesterday, didn't he?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1jiMifpRH
Raditz: “Yes… He did.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5CN6YJGia
Vegeta: “It doesn't take a genius to realize he's left us both behind.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJf5Bs505KO
Raditz: “Yeah, it is quite apparent.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGF8cPjgZ5
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuEmkfglsq
Raditz: “What are you suggesting? Vegeta?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRpZBK32aM
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagHqmHUl0R
Raditz: “Considering your competition, your threats don't mean much right now. So enlighten me, why is that path doomed for failure?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjV5DEMl6Z6
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjHfNQJJ3A
Raditz stared at the floor, lost in his thoughts.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIhm8SNyqr
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YHsaFFa6v
Raditz: “W-What do you propose? Even if I went along with it, we can't stop him.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdTCgBezxF
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbco0h6jRiv
Raditz: “I won't fail you, Vegeta. I think I know how to get him off our backs.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnj9lOkJni7
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfExnKlU7E
Kakarot pondered deeply, looking into the dim, cloudy sky.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeV22INYnS
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LTrwSnyJA
He looked at his fist in shame.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvoNCAEFeC
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcYajsV4f4
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOnLvTYMlE
A sudden static came from Kakarot's scouter.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U8moBjJ0V
“Bro—-er! You ne—-ed to come! Q—--ck!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3UuZbUy6y
Kakarot: “Raditz! Is that you!? Raditz! What's wrong?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCepG9ubdi
Raditz: “I— tried to save th—m!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbBcjLG82n
Kakarot: “Where are you?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkWx1288z4
Raditz: “Y—our place!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauDXwpACQF
Kakarot: “I'm on my way!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIjUsY32Ix
Kakarot anxiously rushed back to his home. The sky roared as a thunderstorm broke out. Vicious rain drops poured all over the land.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogZWbO3thd
Kakarot: “Has one of Frieza's loyal followers found our base? He's probably seeking revenge against me!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxqtzkl9nC
Kakarot arrived in mere moments. Raditz waited for him outside. Most of Kakarot's home was battered up and crumbling apart.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwBm6Y3Ket
Kakarot: “Brother! What happened? Where's Bulma and Beet?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK5G4stCHR
Raditz had a cut on his cheek and some of his armor had been damaged. He took a moment to catch his breath.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBOIauXUF1
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..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8MRIUjopO
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzeEPpJzIH
Kakarot: “No…”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeAHSqzAI3
Raditz limped behind him, putting his hand on his brother's shoulder.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYObvYBTTTi
Raditz: “I'm terribly sorry, Kakarot. I found them like this by the time I arrived. I couldn't save them…”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJHuDweTDO
Kakarot: “No, no, no, no…. They should have come after me.. no..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmo3OapbUa
He fell to his knees, and held his son in his arms.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6yy7PqBFo
Kakarot: “B-Beet… I should've been there, to protect you.. both of you.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPjMnzJeZy
Raditz: “It's a real shame… he cried out for his “Daddy” in his last moments you know.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ6YCCwxYn
Kakarot: “I wasn't there for him..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aqxYGz7yw
Kakarot froze for a moment. His eyes widened.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3CR2roJEP
Kakarot: “You… You said you found them like this when you got here..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FIuywm6h9
Raditz: “Let this be my final lesson to you brother. Trust no one.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXK14B1l8TD
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWLrnqYHZU
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMo0dFFfIX
Kakarot: “H-How.. c-ccould.. youuu..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUtQ5c5Fc5
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeteZzmDX3
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRAQdHVCez
Raditz: “It's done, sir.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDWKG0DMgS
Vegeta: “What did you do?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwwxGPn6QI
Raditz: “I got rid of him and his boy for good. They will never get in our way again.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2CazQvlA5
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChd5ujzYDk
Raditz: “It is an honor.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡai0rjKViMi
Raditz bowed down in respect.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBce1bHS62Q
“Prince Vegeta! Our security has been breached! They're headed your wa-”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef8iq7sT1A
The signal was cut off in a violent manner, before they had time to process the warning, something smashed through the entrance.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzqqgk2iLS
Kakarot: “Y-You!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XWlS2b0I4
Raditz: “Impossible! He should've succumbed to his wounds!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0Sp6BnM3G
Kakarot took heavy breaths and struggled to stand.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ89XX4RKXh
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLL0KtUS2pD
Raditz: “Right!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTsADappF5
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUSPdiBzoj
Vegeta: “Nappa was a fool that let his emotions cloud his judgment.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmcl25PeYy
Kakarot: “He was your friend!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TOMvpIqzy
Vegeta: “And he paid the price for it.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4huDl5qKE
Kakarot: “I l-looked up to you guys!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYv3nhBajw7
Tears ran down his face.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgxLs5I33f
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?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gx2MAcIXA
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMzZ7BDQwX
Kakarot: “Haaaaa!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemoWkHDksU
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Giva1WU0Z
Raditz: “Vegeta!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzER9BJCIk
Kakarot rushed Raditz, tackling him to the ground. He pounded his face a few times before grabbing a hold of his neck.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg96q1ajx3T
Kakarot: “Why!? We're brother's! Why would you do this! You meant everything to me!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfp6twv574d
Raditz smirked.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxggUOkHusT
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEFK1acr9r
Kakarot: “So none of this ever really mattered, huh? I should've killed you back in our fight with Frieza!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7J1cIAXVX4
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlncbkd14w
Kakarot: “Ha! Ha! Haa!! None of this matters huh? It never did! Nothing does!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpqpbV4w4T
He pounded the ground.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNfVSIxfDS
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbJdaPcQxS
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vD4kZ6yW6
Kakarot: “To fight!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKR5aMS2kP
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjDX0SOEOC
Raditz: “B-Brother.. You w-wouldn't kill me.. right? I'm…all you have left.. p-please let me make things right..”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpWiWfgE1t
Kakarot: “A warrior always finishes his opponent, remember?”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsNmoKSs5W
Kakarot chuckled and removed his fist. He blasted him away. Raditz's lifeless course collapsed to the ground.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UmqdObr3d
Vegeta: “Big Bang attack!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZjvi0HKT4
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPX1Yg8w4Go
Vegeta: “Gaahh!!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9daMkec90p
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17e3rKUMKW
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!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4w2OtrID6
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.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SBlo2ci7L
Vegeta: “Wait!”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpEQk8IRHC
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.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4sbmI4ZYm
Kakarot: “After years of exploration and combat, I've finally made the time to gather them all together.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0s6i8LeCu
The seven dragon balls glowed in union before the mighty shenron burst out from within them.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKRYVXGnKX
Shenron: “Speak your wish.”
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwcP8DJlmH
Kakarot put his hand on a special vehicle he had beside him.
411Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0cgUoln9E
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!”

Shenron: “As you wish."
