《My Hair Length Determines My Super Saiyan Power!》 1 Im Raditz!? A spacepod flew at high speed toward Earth. Raditz was flying towards Earth in order to bring his brother, Kakarot with him to help Nappa and Vegeta conquer planets faster so they wouldn''t be ridiculed by Frieza''s men. Suddenly a white beam of light flew toward Raditz'' spacepod, without caring, it rushed in and struck Raditz'' head. "Urgh..." Raditz lost consciousness while foaming. A long while later... "Ugh..." Raditz grunted. "Where am I...?" Looking confused, Raditz turned around and inspected his surrounding. "It''s space! What the...! How did I end up in space!!" Raditz yelled in panic. "What! This body...? How?! It''s a battle armor!?" Raditz yelled in confusion. "These memories... I''ve become Raditz?" Raditz mumbled. He didn''t remember what he had been doing earlier, before waking up in Raditz'' body. But he remembered the Dragon Ball storyline, in fact he liked it very much. But he couldn''t remember who he was, nor what he had been doing prior. "Ouch!" He pinched himself, hoping to wake up from this dream. The pain dashed his hopes, this was reality for him. He pinched his cheeks, ouch. He pinched his arm, ouch. "According to Raditz'' latest memories... I''m heading to Earth!" He mumbled as he shuffled through Raditz'' memories. "School... Anime... Dragon Ball... I remember these keywords and common sense. But not who I am... I guess I''ll just have to take Raditz'' identity for now." He clapped his cheeks to get serious. He didn''t remember his own name or age, but he clearly knew school, computer, anime etc. He felt like he was a student before waking up in Raditz'' body, but he had no way to confirm that. *Bibibip* Using Raditz'' memories, he could easily understand the Universal Language and pressed a few buttons on the spacepod terminal. "In twelve days, I''ll reach Earth..." He read the letters written in a different language with fluidity. He took the opportunity to use these twelve days to go through all of Raditz memories and made them his own. There were a lot of killings, Raditz, Nappa and Vegeta had indiscriminately killed many aboriginals in many planets like ants, without remorse or guilt. He could feel Raditz'' pride upon seeing Bardock, longing and warm feelings when he saw Gine. They were Raditz'' father and mother. Unlike the thousands of Saiyans that had existed before Planet Vegeta''s destruction, Raditz'' family was one of the few that cared about their family members. "I always thought Raditz was a cold-hearted scum... But turns out he hadn''t meant to kill Goku or Gohan, even though he threatened to kill them..." From Raditz'' memories, he knew Raditz cared about his family. The threats he gave Goku were just empty threats, he was just a dumb Saiyan believing in the non-existent pride of looking down on the weak ones like ants and killing them like ants. He guessed that Raditz was just going to beat up Goku and Gohan and forcefully abduct them after killing all of Earth''s population. Yes, he was cold-blooded, but he still cared about his family. This was mostly due to Gine''s gentle personality. ... *Boom* The spacepod landed in a rural area, creating a large crater with the spacepod in the center. *Pshh* The hatch opened and Raditz climbed out. "W-Who are you?!" A farmer armed with a rifle yelled in surprise. *Beep* Raditz shut down the scouter. He knew it had a transmitter, he didn''t want to alarm Vegeta and Nappa with his actions. Everything the scouter sees and hears will be automatically sent back to the others. Unfortunately, Raditz had no authority to disable that function. "Hey, calm down." Raditz waved his hand to calm the agitated farmer. Unlike the real Raditz, he wouldn''t go out of his way to kill an innocent person. In fact, he wasn''t sure he had the guts to kill anyone. Although he could not remember who he was, he could vaguely tell he was just a teenager and most likely a normal high school student. "Ah?! You, are. Are...?" The farmer looked confused at the spacepod in the center of the crater. He repeatedly switched his gaze between Raditz and the spacepod in the crater. "Mind your own business. By the way, which direction is West City?" Raditz frowned, he didn''t want to to announce himself as an alien. "Uh... That direction..." The farmer felt calmer upon being able to communicate with the mysterious man that walked out of a round object which he had thought was a meteorite at first before it landed. He pointed at the direction of West City. "Thanks." Raditz closed the hatch and picked up the spacepod and flew away. "Can''t let others take my spacepod... Although there is also Goku''s spacepod. But it''s safer to keep it for now. Dr. Brief should be able to make a spaceship with gravity chamber with this..." Raditz mumbled. "Sigh... I''m not stupid enough to still act like a cannon fodder. But Nappa and Vegeta, especially Vegeta will hate me for my actions of ''betraying them''. I need the gravity chamber to get stronger." Raditz planned his future steps. After flying away from the farmer, Raditz took off his battle armor and put it inside his spacepod and stole some clothes from a nearby house to wear. He didn''t want other''s to speculate what his battle armor meant. "These clothes makes me look like a hillbilly." Raditz complained after seeing his reflection in a lake. After flying for awhile, he saw a large city in front. He quickly found a nearby forest and landed there. "At least this is less attention catching." Raditz cut off a few trees and made a cart, he put his spacepod on the cart and covered it with leaf and branches. "Too bad I don''t have a cloth..." Raditz shook his head and pushed the cart toward West City. "It looks quite futuristic..." The city was unlike those from modern time in his memories. There were flying cars and air channel roads, round futuristic houses. Raditz asked around a bit and found the address to Capsule Corporation. He planned to leave his space equipment to Dr. Brief. He could also ask for Kame house''s direction, if he wanted to fit in here on Earth, he would need to get along with Goku and his friends. Raditz pushed his cart to Capsule Corporation''s entrance. *Ping* He pressed the intercom. "Hello, I''m looking for Dr. Brief." Raditz spoke into the intercom. "Dr. Brief is in the garden. Let me call him, please wait a moment." A robotic voice came out of the intercom. "Hello, I believe you''re looking for me." After awhile, Dr. Brief came out with a small black kitten on his shoulder. "Hi, Dr. Brief. I''m Raditz, Ka- Goku''s big brother." Raditz said honestly, he was going to use the identity of Goku''s brother as ''he'' really was Goku''s biological big brother. He unwrapped his tail from his waist and also showed it to Dr. Brief. "Oh! Yes, I remember Goku also has a monkey tail. Come in." Dr. Brief easily bought Raditz'' story. "Dr. Brief this scouter has a transmitter, is it possible for you to disable or remove the transmitter sending out information?" Raditz handed his scouter to Dr. Brief. "Hm... This look fascinating, so many component is such a small device..." Dr. Brief inspected the internal structure of the scouter, his eyes glued to it. "No problem, give me an hour." Dr. Brief immediately went to work. *Growl* Raditz stomach growled after waiting for awhile. "Ohoho, I presume you also eat as much as Goku? Let me get you some food." Dr. Brief said generously. "Yes, thank you." Raditz thanked politely. A few maid droids brought tens of plates to a table. "It smells so good." Raditz smiled and started digging in. "It''s finished, whoever built this device is a genius! I''ve already mapped the structure, I believe I''ll be able to make a scouter soon enough." Dr. Brief came back with a happy smile. "That''s great! Thank you, Dr. Brief. I have another request..." Raditz had just finished his meal, dozens of empty plates stacked up on the table. "Here''s a spacepod, can you build a gravity chamber after analyzing this?" Raditz removed the leaves and branches covering the cart. "A spacepod!? It''s a spaceship that''s capable of flying in space?! Interesting! I''ll start examining it right now!" Dr. Brief''s fell out of his mouth. 2 First Meeting Dr. Brief needed a few days to fully examine his spacepod, so Raditz decided to look for Goku and his friends first. Since this was the day Goku went to Kame house, Raditz put on his scouter which Dr. Brief had removed the transmitter. *Beep* Raditz pressed the button and had the scouter find the highest battle power for him. After a while it found the target. "That direction¡­" Raditz mumbled. Raditz asked Dr. Brief for some more comfortable clothes before leaving. He did not want to look like a hillbilly. Raditz left Capsule Corporation wearing a dark tank top and a pair of blue shorts. ¡­ "What an incredible power! I can barely believe what I''m sensing...!" Goku tensed up as he stared into the sky. "There he is!" A small dot quickly grew in size. *Tok* Raditz landed in Kame house island. "We finally meet, Kakarot." Raditz'' mind spun furiously as he organized his thoughts. "Eh?" Goku looked dumbly at Raditz. "Who''s he?" Krillin wondered. "Kakarot, you look just like our father." Raditz couldn''t just come out and say he knew everything there was to Dragon Ball. So he had to pretend meeting Goku for the first time. "What are you talking about...?" Goku looked confused. "Kakarot, don''t tell me you don''t recognize your own elder brother?" Raditz smiled. It was like he was playing a game with Goku, making him more and more confused. "I''m not Kakarot, I''m Son Goku. You''ve mistook me for someone else." Goku said. "Hahaha! Kakarot, tell me. Do you recognize this?" Raditz unwrapped his tail from his waist. "A- A tail?!" The group was shocked upon seeing Raditz'' tail. "You have a tail just like the one I used to have!" Goku said, his face still filled with shock. "Kakarot, what are you playing around for! I am your elder brother, how can you have forgotten your family!" Raditz exaggeratedly clenched his fist in ''anger''. "I... Have no idea what you''re talking about..." Goku said quietly. He was having some doubts on his own. "Don''t tell me you''ve taken a blow to your head and forgotten everything?!" Raditz yelled. "It''s true, I have a scar. I might have hit my head once, but I was too little to remember." Goku felt the scar on his head. "Goku. Your grandfather once told me about the time he found a baby in the woods. A baby with a tail. He had a violent disposition and couldn''t be tamed by anyone. That is, until that baby accidentally fell down a ravine, hitting his head. The boy nearly died, but pulled through. When he awoke, his violent temper subsided, and he grew into a kindhearted boy..." Master Roshi told the group. "And that baby was me?" Goku asked. "Yes." Master Roshi nodded. "I. You''re really my brother?" Goku asked in doubt. "Goku has got a brother!?" Krillin was shocked. "That''s right." Raditz nodded. "Then why did you guys abandon me!? Where are my parents? You said I look just like our father!" Goku yelled. "Dead. All four thousands of our people all died not long after you were born." Raditz said. "Dead!?" Goku was shocked, he just found out about his parents, but they were already dead. "F-Four thousands of you people!? Don''t tell me each of them also had a tail?!" Bulma was shocked. "That''s right, we''re not earthlings. Kakarot, you and I are both Saiyan." Raditz said. "Saiyan...?" Goku mumbled. "Saiyan? Not earthling...? G-Goku and you are aliens!? N-No way!" Bulma''s eyes widened in shock. "I- I am an alien...?" Goku was shocked. "How did the Saiyans die?" Krillin asked. "We have a lot of time, I don''t mind taking it slowly." Raditz motioned his head towards the door. Since he planned to explain a lot, why not relax and take a seat inside the house? The group went inside and sat down on the couch. "You haven''t introduced yourself yet." Goku said, he still didn''t know his own brother''s name. After Master Roshi''s explanation and Raditz'' tail. He already believed Raditz'' story. "My name is Raditz. We Saiyans are a fighting race, we have strong bodies and unlimited potentials. The more we battle, the stronger we become." Raditz explained. "No wonder Goku is so strong!" Krillin exclaimed. "But that isn''t all! What makes us really frightening is... Zenkai! What doesn''t kill us, makes us stronger. Each time we experience a near death and recover, our power greatly enhanced. As I''ve said before, the more we battle, the stronger we become. Even normal injuries after recovering will increase our power, but the more severe the wounds, the greater the improvements." Raditz explained. "Isn''t that cheating?!" Krillin yelled in envy. "Doesn''t that mean you Saiyans are the strongest? If you just keep injuring yourselves and heal up, you would be unkillable. How did your race get destroyed?" Bulma asked confused. "It doesn''t work that way, self-inflicted wounds does not boost our powers. Simply recovering from injuries without battles will have diminished returns, we Saiyans imprint the experiences from the battles and injuries we receive. He are highly adaptable and are quick learners." Raditz said. "No wonder I felt I become so much stronger after my battle with Piccolo..." Goku had been severely injuried, his body crippled and a large gaping hole in his chest during his battle against Piccolo in the WMA(World Martial Arts) Tournament. After eating a senzu bean, he fully recovered and had his powers improved. "We can talk about our race''s destruction later. We have more trouble coming." What was most important is surviving Vegeta''s rage. He did not tolerate betrayers and was certain to come to Earth sooner or later to find out the reason Raditz'' scouter stopped sending back information. "Trouble?" Goku wondered. "Our race are evil, but don''t get me wrong. Not everyone of us Saiyans are evil. We worked for Frieza, the ruler of the universe. Frieza''s forces scour space for suitable planets to live in and exterminate all the native species before selling it to other races. Naturally, as we Saiyans worked for Frieza, we also did the same." Raditz said. These matters would be found out sooner or later anyway. "T-This is horrible! You guys are just space pirates!" Krillin yelled. "Like I said, not all Saiyans are evil, while the majority of the Saiyans partake in such missions, there are also Non-combatant Saiyans who does not fight or kill. Our home planet, Planet Vegeta had a cruel environment to live, the gravity is 10x Earth''s. King Vegeta was a cruel, selfish and heartless bastard. All babies have their battle power measured, if you are born with a battle power too low, you''ll be deemed unfit as a warrior. You''re not even allowed to stay on our home planet, most of these babies are sent to low-level planets as infiltration babies not long after they were born. Only if you survive and take over the planet are you allowed to return to our home planet and become a warrior. But the survival rate is pitifully low. The reason our race has such a low population is because many of us warriors already die in combat, but to send of so many babies, how could our race''s population ever flourish?" Raditz clenched his fist in anger. He did not know what had gotten in him, but he felt anger when he thought of these matters. "That''s horrible! How can you send so many babies to their death! They don''t even a choice in choosing either! How can your King be so heartless, that is forcing them to either kill off all the inhabitants in a planet or die!" Bulma felt sympathy. "Doesn''t that mean... Goku was an infiltration baby!?" Krillin was shocked. "That''s right, my little brother was born with a battle power of 2 and was deemed unfit as a warrior and sent to Earth, his mission was to exterminate the humans, once finished, he would be allowed to return back to our home planet. But not long after he was sent off, our home planet was destroyed. In a way, it was lucky Kakarot ended up here." Raditz nodded. 3 The Gathering "A small number of the low-class Saiyan babies are allowed to become engineers. There were several hundreds of non-combatant Saiyans in our home planet, our mother was one of them, she had a kind and gentle personality. She couldn''t kill her enemies and always let them go, but the enemies weren''t so understanding, they would rather throw away their lives and take down her in a suicidal attack. Our mother retired and worked in the meat distribution center ever since." Raditz felt emotional when he talked about Gine. "So my mom was a kind person. Raditz'' what''s my parents'' names?" Goku felt better knowing his mother wasn''t evil. "Our father''s name is Bardock, and you look just like him. Our mother''s called Gine, she was a kind and caring mother." Raditz'' eyes became moist. It seemed the old Raditz also missed his parents. "Not long ago, I found out the truth of our race''s destruction. The only Saiyan''s left are you, me, Nappa and Prince Vegeta. We Saiyans worked our ass off for Frieza! We showed loyalty, but what we got in return was betrayal! Frieza exterminated our race, destroyed our planet. It''s laughable how we''re still working for Frieza, he lied about the truth of our race''s destruction to keep our loyalty. Vegeta knew this all along, but he did not care nor did he tell me and Nappa about it. Prince Vegeta is just as cruel and heartless as his father, King Vegeta. He did not feel anything even though he knew Frieza killed his father, killed our race! The only thing on his mind is to become the strongest, he wants to take over Frieza''s position and rule the universe. " Raditz clenched his fists, his body shook. He felt the old Raditz'' emotions, before Raditz left for Earth, the three of them had had a discussion. Nappa was the one who found out about the truth and asked him and Vegeta about it, that was when Vegeta disclosed that he knew the truth all along. "That''s horrible!" The group could feel Raditz'' anger. "Vegeta does not tolerate any betrayers, if we Saiyans do not listen to him, he will kill us. Sooner or later, Vegeta will find out something is wrong and come here. Kaka- Goku, you and I do not intend to follow that bastard. That means we will have to fight him." Raditz said. Raditz had almost said Kakarot due to his memories, but to him who transmigrated into Raditz'' body, he did not care at all about the Saiyan name, thus he called him Goku instead. "So that''s the trouble you meant." Goku nodded. "This is very serious. Vegeta is a super elite, his battle power is 18,000!" Raditz felt the group did not understand the situation. "How is battle power calculated?" Goku only knew that Raditz'' Ki was incredibly strong, way stronger than his. *Bibibip* Raditz pressed the button on his scouter and scanned everyone''s battle power. "An average adult human have a battle power of 5, Goku your is 334, your son''s 1, the woman''s 12, the old man''s 139, the short guy''s 206. While mine is 1,500 and Nappa''s over 4,000. I do not know the exact of his, but it is likely over 5,000 once he fully releases his power." Raditz told the group. "So I''m stronger than 2 adult men?" Bulma smiled. "This isn''t the time to be happy about that! That Vegeta guy has a battle power of 18,000!" Krillin yelled. It was too shocking of a number for him. "So high!?" Goku was also shocked, now he had a better understanding of the numbers. "How high is my battle power now?" Goku hurriedly removed his weighted clothes. *Bibibip* Raditz measured Goku''s battle power again. "It''s 416... 450... 454." Raditz read out the readings. Goku push out all his Ki, though not concentrating it in one point which could greatly enhance its power. "We''re doomed!" Bulma clutched her head and yelled. She was smart and did a quick mental calculations comparing them to Nappa and Vegeta. "When do you think Vegeta and Nappa will come?" Krillin asked in distress. "In at least a year, at most in 2 or 3 years." Raditz said with a serious face. The trip here would take just 1 year, since Vegeta did not know about the dragon balls, he might delay it awhile. But it still wouldn''t be for too long. "But don''t worry too much, unlike you humans, most alien races do not know any martial arts, we have no control over our Ki. We use these scouters to measure battle power and to find people. Goku, your control of Ki is quite good. What you lack is a strong body, you did not get to stay in Planet Vegeta were the gravity is 10x this planet''s. Once you''ve strengthened your body, your battle power will skyrocket, it wouldn''t be weird for it to reach several thousands with simply a years training." Raditz explained. "What about us?" Krillin asked envious upon hearing how strong Goku will become. "We Saiyans have great potential, strong bodies and great adaptability. We are born fighters. But I believe you would also require some gravity training. Gravity training will train each part of your body equally, even your weak internal organs will be strengthened." Raditz said. "Ugh..." Krillin lamented the fact he was human for the first time. "I''ll contact Yamcha, Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu!" Goku stood up. "Wait! Don''t forget to train your son. I can vaguely feel threatened by the strength hidden inside his body. He should have a battle power of at least 1,000. I believe the scouter''s reading of 1 is due to his Ki being hidden." Raditz reminded, he knew Gohan had great potential. Due to Raditz never fighting Goku, Gohan might not get to train. "1,000!? That''s even higher than Goku''s!" Krillin yelled. "As expected of Goku''s child, huh?" Master Roshi sighed in amazement. "So high? Alright, I''ll try to convnice Chi Chi..." Goku said meekly. Goku quickly jumped on his Flying Nimbus and soared away. Gohan was left with the group since Goku was going to come back with his friends first. The group started introducing themselves, they didn''t like being called you or shorty or woman. After awhile, Goku came back with Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu and even Piccolo. "You brought Piccolo!?" Krillin and Bulma freaked out at first, then remembered Raditz was with them and calmed down. "Raditz what''s Piccolo''s battle power?" Krillin asked. *Bibibip* Raditz measured. "322." Raditz read the scouter. "This scouter really is useful, huh? Raditz, lend it to me. I want to see if I can make another one." Bulma asked. "Sure, here." Raditz took off the scouter and handed it to Bulma. "Battle power?" Piccolo felt threatened by the huge Ki uncontrollably released by Raditz. After the group explained what battle power was, everyone was eager to measure it. Bulma helplessly handed back the scouter to Raditz, she tried reading, but she did not understand the Universal Language. Piccolo''s battle power without his weighted clothes was 408, Yamcha''s was 176, Tien Shinhan''s was 298. "Kami invites everyone to the Lookout." Suddenly Mr. Popo appeared outside the house, standing on his floating carpet. "It seems, Kami eavesdropped, huh?" Raditz didn''t feel it was weird considering the huge Ki he had, it was hard for Kami not to notice such a strong Ki as there was no one else stronger than him currently on Earth. 4 Receiving Guidance in Martial Arts "I''ve heard everything, if we want to survive, we will have to prepare ourselves." Kami said solemnly. "Kami! You can''t be serious! Do you actually believe aliens exist?" Yamcha yelled in disbelief. The concept of aliens was too far-fetched for them. "Aliens do exists, I''ve had the privilege to see several aliens before. As Earth''s Guardian, I am privy to certain matters." Kami said vaguely. "Is he talking about the Other World?" Raditz wondered in his mind. "Goku, you have a list of commendable achievements. I''ll try to convince King Enma-sama to let you seek guidance under King Kai." Kami said and explained the million kilometer Snake Way trial. "What?! A million kilometer long road? I''ll starve to death before I reach the end!!" Goku exclaimed in shock. "Wait! Can''t we just use the dragon balls to wish for us to be transported to King Kai?" Raditz interjected. Maybe even he would be able to learn under King Kai in this way. "Ah! That''s a great idea!" Goku said happily. As a Saiyan, he could not think of ever starving himself to death. "Let''s see, next is Vegeta, then it''s Frieza Saga. Kaioken will only be useful during Saiyan Saga and Frieza Saga, but to fight Frieza, only Super Saiyan transformation can defeat him..." Raditz pondered. "I''ll go look for the dragon balls!" Goku turned around and jumped down the Lookout. "Great, he forgot about Gohan." Krillin complained, Goku was supposed to ask Chi Chi for permission to train Gohan first. But now, he probably had to go instead. He shivered just at the thought of receiving Chi Chi''s rage. "Ugh... That''s really disrespectful to King Kai..." Kami didn''t manage to stop Goku in time, his face darkened. "I should buy some gag books." Raditz thought. King Kai was quite lax in his ways, Raditz did not believe King Kai would send them away just because they did not complete the Snake Way trial. After all, just telling a few jokes was enough to make him jump up in joy. "Sigh... Well, next up. Mr. Popo, please teach Raditz martial arts. Raditz, I can sense the great power in you, if what you said is real. Then your former companions are real monsters. We have no time to waste, please follow Mr. Popo to the Room of Time and Spirit." Kami said. "Great!" Raditz was excited to learn martial arts. "Ah! Please wait a bit, I got a few matters to finish before I can start training." Raditz said. He wanted to get his gravity chamber first. Dr. Brief had already started tinkering, he believed in a few days tops, he would have a gravity chamber. "Can''t waste the precious time in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber." Raditz said inwardly. He wanted to use the excess time he had to train in the gravity chamber. He could stay inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for a year each time, it would be a waste to leave early, and also a waste to not fully train at his highest efficiency. As a Saiyan, naturally the gravity chamber would greatly aid in his training. Raditz flew over to Dr. Brief, awaiting his gravity chamber. Meanwhile, Krillin knew the severity of the Saiyans arrival in one year. He had to somehow convince Chi Chi to let Gohan train with them, with unsteady steps, he walked toward Mt. Paozu with a solemn face, as if he was sacrificing his life for this mission. Naturally, he cursed Goku under his breath. A week went by, Raditz had impatiently waited for Dr. Brief to finish the gravity chamber, he had specifically told him he only needed the gravity chamber and not a spaceship, the only requirement was the ability to turn it into a capsule, otherwise he would be incapable of moving it around. Raditz had just gotten a few senzu beans from Korin, he had also tried sitting on a Flying Nimbus cloud, but unfortunately he wasn''t able to and just fell through the cloud. "Is it because I don''t have a pure heart or due to the sins from the old Raditz?" Raditz wondered if it was the heavy sins from all the killings of innocent lives. Kami had said Raditz was not evil, but he had many sins surrounding his body. Bulma had come back home and was pleasantly surprised that her father had made a blueprint of Raditz scouter, after a few hours of tinkering, she had made herself a scouter. "Wow, you''re really a genius!" Raditz praised Bulma. "Hohoho! Of course I am a genius!" Bulma laughed conceitedly with her right hand''s back on her chin. "..." Raditz was speechless, but helpless as well, as what she said was really true. Who else was such a genius to even manage to create a time machine in the future? After awhile, Dr. Brief finally manage to make a gravity chamber in a week''s time, because he had not had the chance to repair Kami''s old Namekian spaceship, he lacked experience and knowledge in building these advanced machines. "Thanks!" Raditz smiled radiantly, he quickly turned the gravity chamber into a capsule and flew away. Dr. Brief was still chattering about the danger of training with gravity. "Finally time to learn martial arts!" Raditz held a bag of senzu on his left hand, the capsule in his right hand. With the senzu, he was not worried to accidentally train in too high gravity and get crushed to death by simply the gravity itself. On Raditz'' request, Kami made several sets of training clothes for Raditz. Because Raditz knew the training would destroy his clothes repeatedly, and he didn''t want to train naked like a caveman. Kami was personally supervising the Yamcha, Krillin, Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, Gohan and Piccolo''s training. They had already started training on the first day they came. For some reason, Krillin had a bandage wrapped around his head. "Did Chi Chi..." Raditz wondered. Raditz and Mr. Popo entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. Raditz put away his scouter, bag of senzu and his many sets of clothes. He didn''t want them to get destroyed during his training. "Let''s start!" Raditz smiled excitedly and walked toward Mr. Popo. The 10x gravity was not a problem for his body, he quickly adjusted to the new gravity due to the old Raditz'' experiences on Planet Vegeta. The uncomfortable part was the harsh weather here with the constant fluctuating temperatures changing between extreme cold to extreme heat constantly. 5 Shoplifting for a Good Reason A day passed since Raditz stepped into the Room of Spirit and Time. Creak... The door to the Room of Spirit and Time opened, a man with spiky hair reaching his calves wearing ragged clothes stepped out of the door. "As expected, a Saiyan learns best in battles!" Raditz clenched his fist, a bang sound could be heard as the air in his fist exploded. Feeling the newfound strength coursing through his arm, Raditz smiled. Raditz was more talented than earthlings when it came to learning martial arts, but the speed was too slow for him, who had no martial arts foundation. If he were to learn it the normal way, it would probably have taken him several years to master Kami''s martial arts. But he is a Saiyan, why would he need to practice the martial arts forms for hours each day? A Saiyan learned best in combat, imprinting each information he receives from a battle into his mind. Raditz couldn''t control his strength in the beginning, as such, the spar with Mr. Popo was quite awkward, with Raditz gaining very little each time. But as they sparred more and more, Raditz was like a sponge, soaking in all the knowledge of Mr. Popo''s martial arts. Raditz learned to suppress his own Ki and was able to have satisfying spars each time with Mr. Popo, his martial arts knowledge increased rapidly, and in 8 months, he had learned everything. The last 4 month was spent on gravity training since Raditz had learned everything he had, Mr. Popo left early. Unlike others, Mr. Popo was not restricted by the number of times he could enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, nor the amount of time he could stay, even if he stayed longer than 1 year, the door leading to the real world would not disappear. These were the information Mr. Popo had told Raditz immediately, once the two of them had stepped inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. This was because Raditz could potentially get trapped inside the room if he did not follow the rules. The reason Raditz walked out in ragged clothes were due to all his extra training clothes had been destroyed, once Raditz could suppress his Ki down to Mr. Popo''s level, his clothes got destroyed quite easily. His training in the gravity chamber also destroyed the rest of his extra clothes. This was because Raditz did not fear to overstrain his body, he had brought some senzu beans before he had entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. Because he trained in higher gravity than his body could bear, Raditz had used up all the senzu beans he brought with him. The remaining time was spent on more moderate gravity, whenever his body was badly injured, he would meditate until his body recovered. Luckily, Saiyans had much higher recovery ability than earthlings, normally a week or two would be enough to heal all his injuries. "Raditz!" Goku sensed the large Ki coming from the center of the Lookout. "Goku, have you finished gathering the dragon balls?" Raditz asked, although only one day had passed, he had waited a week before entering the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. The fact that Goku was back in the Lookout should mean he had finished gathering all the dragon balls. "Yes, they''re here." Goku pointed at the 7 dragon balls glowing a bit away. "Never mind that, let''s fight!" Goku said excitedly. "... Did your powers increase after a week?" Raditz asked helplessly, there was no meaning for him to fight Goku before he had powered up. "Ahahaha, no. I''ve just finished gathering the dragon ball. Let''s ask Shenron to send us to King Kai." Goku embarrassingly scratched the back of his head. He already knew he was no match for Raditz even before Raditz entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, now that Raditz had trained for a year inside, and his Ki had increased by so much, there wasn''t really any meaning for Goku to try fighting Raditz. "Raditz, maybe you''re strong enough to take on the Saiyans now?" Yamcha asked, he felt it was impossible for anyone to have a Ki larger than Raditz had. Especially with him being guided by Mr. Popo and had learned Kami''s martial arts, he had also trained in the mysterious place called Room of Time and Spirit. Bibibibeep! Raditz put on the scouter and scanned his own battle power. The scouter was fine since he never wore it during his training. "8,500. That''s half Vegeta''s battle power." Raditz was pleasantly surprised by his new strength, it had increased by manyfold. "If I learn Kaioken, with 2x Kaioken, I''ll almost be a match to Vegeta. Nevermind, even with just Goku and the rest fighting Vegeta, they''re quite equal already, and barely managed to chase away Vegeta. But with me joining them, there are no troubles anymore." Raditz'' mind spun. He had been worried he would get killed, but now, he was confident in staying alive. Unfortunately, he only had 3 senzu beans, if he had a few more, it wouldn''t be impossible for him to train as hard as Goku did during the few days he flew toward Planet Namek like in the story, but unfortunately his battle power was much lower than Goku''s was when he started gravity training, and he had fewer senzu beans to squander. If he were to start training like Goku did, now with his battle power over 8,000. He had quite a good chance to enhance his battle power to 70-80,000. Unfortunately there were only 3 senzu beans in Korin Tower, the first thing Raditz did was slap away Yajirobe, sternly warning him to never touch a senzu bean again. "Hopefully there will be enough senzu beans in a year..." Raditz lamented. If he had more senzu beans, he could have trained crazily in the gravity chamber. "So much!? But unfortunately, Vegeta''s battle power is 18,000..." Krillin sighed. "Wow! Raditz, you had just 1,500 before, now it''s 8,500! That''s... how many times did it increase?" Goku started counting his fingers to no avail. "Goku, you can''t count it exactly with these numbers, it''s over 5 times." Krillin rolled his eyes at Goku. The number was 5 and two thirds, it was impossible for Goku to get the exact amount with whole numbers. He saw Goku keep stretching out his fifth finger, then bending it back down in confusion. Raditz went over to Kami and asked for a new set of training clothes, Kami kindly materialized them directly on Raditz'' body. Even though King Kai could do the same, Raditz needed to look properly before going to the city. Raditz wasn''t confident he could make King Kai laugh, he quickly ''bought'' a gag book. Raditz didn''t have any money at all, and he did not think a mere book would cause the bookstore to panic, what he did was merely shoplifting. With Raditz'' might, no one in the bookstore noticed Raditz leaving with a book unpaid. Raditz stuffed the book inside his clothes, on his waist and flew back to the Lookout. Goku summoned Shenron and asked if it was possible to send everyone to King Kai. With no surprise, Shenron gladly fulfilled the group''s wish. With a fwoosh, the whole group except Kami and Mr. Popo was sent to King Kai''s planet. 6 Eating Dog Turd "They...! Are so rude..." Kami said speechlessly as he saw the white light glowing around the group bring them away. "This is all for Earth''s sake." Mr. Popo said. ... "Huh? Huuuuh!? Where did you guys come from!?" King Kai''s eyes widened in shock, the group of 8 consisting of Raditz, Goku, Gohan, Piccolo, Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu suddenly appeared in front of him, as if they had teleported here. "We- Ugh!" The group had just wanted to explain, when the gravity on King Kai''s planet, which was 10x Earth''s gravity acted on them. Everyone except Raditz, who was both used to Planet Vegeta''s 10x gravity, as well as having trained on 30x gravity in his gravity chamber was fine. This was also with him being on guard, with the knowledge of King Kai''s planet having a higher gravity than Earth. 7 consecutive bang sounds echoed as the other 7 in the group fell flat on their faces, due to the sudden increase in gravity. "Ahahahaha! This is truly eating dog turd! Ahahaha! Are you guys enjoying your meal of dog turd? Ahahaha!" King Kai fell on his back, holding his belly with his hands, his legs constantly kicked as he laughed again and again. The faces of the 7 were covered in brown mud, it was as if they were covered in dog turd. "Cough, cough! Blegh!" The group kept coughing out dirt from their mouths. "You damned bastard!" Piccolo was really angry, a vein popped on his forehead as he clenched his fist hard and with a bang, exploded his Ki, turning all the dirt covering him into dust, the explosion then sent the dust away. "As short-tempered as always..." Krillin commented in speechlessness. After the outburst of Ki, Piccolo once again fell down to the ground, but this time on his knees, with his arms stretched out, keeping him from falling flat on the ground. "What''s with this damned gravity!!" Piccolo cursed, with his shaky arms and legs, he slowly got up. Piccolo was no longer arrogant, he quickly tossed away his turban and mantle, the extra weight was what put him on almost the same level as the rest of the earthlings. "Hehehe! I can also stand!" Goku smiled, with shaky legs, he managed to stand up. But he did not remove the weighted clothes he wore. "Damn you, Son Goku!" Piccolo''s fighting spirit was ignited, he knew Goku also wore weighted clothes. He did not want to lose to Goku, and quickly put back on his turban and mantle, his legs started shaking once again from the extra weight. "These guys are monsters!" Yamcha exclaimed with his head still resting on the ground. "I can understand Raditz standing just fine, with his battle power over 10 times higher than Goku and Piccolo... But the two of them actually managed to stand up with their weighted clothes on!" Krillin said in envy. The rest of the group consisted of Gohan, Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu, they also wore weighted clothes which were given to them by Kami for their training. But they were unable to stand up with the weighted clothes worn. Helplessly, the five of them took off the weighted clothes, and with shaky legs, slowly stood up. Finally, they started dusting off the dirt covering their faces and clothes. "Wow! You guys aren''t bad at all! Especially for living beings, your might might scare the ghosts to death! Ahahaha!" King Kai laughed at his own joke. He saw everything, the heavy sounds the weighted clothes made when the group took off their weighted clothes, but he was especially surprised seeing Raditz, Goku, and Piccolo standing with all their clothes on. Especially Raditz, his Ki was really large, much larger than anyone else in the group. "King Kai, I have a gift for you. Please train me!" Raditz took out the gag book from his waist and handed it to King Kai. "Ahahaha! This is great! This is great! Ohohoho! This one too!..." King Kai flipped through the book while constantly laughing. "Not bad! I''ll train you into the best gag artist!" King Kai proclaimed with pride. "Uh." Raditz'' mouth twitched, he knew King Kai''s personality, but to actually experience him face to face... That was quite something. "King Kai! I want to train in martial arts." Raditz explained. "Why didn''t you say so earlier? Alright, show me what you''ve got." King Kai said. "Haaaa!" Raditz clenched his fists and pushed out all his energy. Raditz'' energy constantly generated gusts of wind. Fssh, fssh. The wind blew crazily, the grass danced, the branches waved and the leaves shook. "Alright! Stop!" King Kai hurriedly asked Raditz to stop, he was worried the grass would get pulled out of the ground, leaving only brown dirt left. "S-Such power!" Everyone in Raditz'' group was amazed, although they knew Raditz'' Ki was really large, to actually have him push out all his Ki was a whole other sense of feeling. "To think Vegeta is twice as strong." Krillin was horrified of their impending disaster. But also extremely jealous of the Saiyan''s talent. He believed, just like Raditz, not long after, Goku''s Ki would also experience an enormous rise. "What an enormous power!" Piccolo''s eyes narrowed, he knew Raditz was stronger than him, but he did not expect the difference was so incredibly large. He had a hard time believing he could ever surpass Raditz. "Ah? So you''re a Saiyan. No wonder you had no trouble standing, your home planet Planet Vegeta also has a gravity that is equal to my planet." King Kai praised upon seeing Raditz'' brown monkey tail wrapped around his waist. "Hm... I can sense quite a lot of sins wrapped around you, but I can''t feel any evil intent in your mind... Are you really a Saiyan?" King Kai was surprised, he knew just how savage and bloodthirsty the Saiyans were. The sins wrapped around Raditz body was from the old Raditz killing innocent lives, this was something Raditz inherited after taking over the body. The only way to get rid of the sins was by doing good deeds, to cancel out the sins surrounding his body. "Yes, but I hit my head a few days before I arrived on Earth, it messed up my head pretty badly." Raditz made up an excuse, which was quite truthful, as the old Raditz'' last memories were being hit by a white beam of light right in the head. "Me too! I''m also a Saiyan! I also hit my head when I was a child!" Goku shouted, explaining that he had experienced quite a similar accident. The group then proceeded to explain their actual situation, their impending disaster, of the two Saiyan''s coming to invade Earth. "Hm...Hm... I see them! They''re heading toward Earth... It will take them about a year to reach Earth, with the speed they are flying." King Kai waved his antenna and calculated the Saiyan''s flight speed. "Wow! Piccolo, can you also do the same with your antennas?" Goku asked curiously, Piccolo also had two antennas, which seemed to have no use. "No! Hmph!" Piccolo snorted and turned around. "Goku is the only one being chill with Piccolo... Don''t he know that Piccolo still wants to kill him...?" Krillin whispered to Yamcha. None of them knew that Piccolo''s sharp Namekian ears were capable of hearing Krillin''s words. As usual, everyone was required to make a joke that would make King Kai laugh, before they would be eligible to learn under King Kai. For some reason, Goku was the first one to succeed, as King Kai had a lousy sense of humor, Goku''s lame jokes fit him perfectly. After a few days, only Piccolo failed to make King Kai laugh, feeling humiliated, he did not continue trying anymore. Raditz was too strong to need any training like catching Bubbles or hitting Gregory with a hammer. King Kai had taught him Kaioken, right now, Raditz was doing his best to learn this technique. 7 Piccolo Joins the Training The rest of the group were trying to catch Bubbles, Piccolo included. Because the gravity was too much for them, except Piccolo and Goku, the rest did not wear their weighted clothes. King Kai had told them the gravity was 10x Earth''s gravity, which amazed them even more, that the Saiyan''s home planet actually had such a high gravity. "Hey! Piccolo, what do you think you''re doing?! You''re not allowed to train with them before you pass my test!" King Kai rebuked. "Hmph! I don''t need your lousy training!" Piccolo gnashed his teeth and left. He walked up to a tree and sat down cross-legged and started meditating. "Come on, Piccolo. It''s not hard." Goku saw everything, he walked up to Piccolo, and tried to encourage him to continue telling jokes to King Kai. "I do not need to humiliate myself!" Piccolo yelled angrily, his face flushed from remembering his attempts at telling jokes to King Kai. Goku tried persuading Piccolo several times but failed. Without a choice, he walked up to Raditz and asked his big brother to help. "Goku is really too kind... He''s helping his archenemy to get stronger..." Krillin looked speechlessly as Goku was begging Raditz to persuade Piccolo. "You do realize Piccolo still wants your life, right?" Raditz was also speechless. Although he knew that Piccolo would become good in the future, Goku did not know that yet. But he still treated Piccolo like a friend already. "Don''t worry! I''ll just have to defeat him!" Goku said confidently. "Is this how he made Piccolo turn good...?" Raditz wondered in his mind. To treat his enemies as friends, if it works, he will convert his enemies into friends. But Goku was doing it unwittingly, this was his nature, and not done with ulterior motives. "Alright, I''ll try." Seeing how Goku was practically begging him, Raditz nodded and walked up to Piccolo. "Hey, are you really going to give up training?" Raditz asked Piccolo. "I don''t need to humiliate myself to get stronger, I can train by myself!" Piccolo looked sternly at Raditz. "All it takes is a bit of humiliation for you to give up strength. If you''re fine with the humans getting stronger than you, if you''re fine being dead last of the rest of the group. Then suit yourself." Raditz pressured Piccolo with his Ki. "... I tried." Piccolo said silently. He had a really thin skin, otherwise, with how competitive he is, there was no way he would simply give up his training with King Kai. "Yeah, I know. I don''t have a ''great'' sense of humor either. So why don''t you just look up a joke from the gag book, I''m sure he''ll laugh in no time." Raditz gave a piece of advice to Piccolo, he pointed at the book on the table, next to King Kai, who was reclining on the chair. A few days later, King Kai announced that Piccolo passed his test. Unknowingly, Piccolo had surreptitiously memorized a few jokes from the gag book while King Kai was out driving on his car. At first, Piccolo simply extended his arms to catch Bubbles, but after getting berated, as this action did not help him train in King Kai''s 10x''s gravity. He finally obediently chased after Bubbles, with Goku close to catching Bubbles, Piccolo unrelentingly pushed harder, which in return made the rest of the group work harder, their hard work pleased King Kai. Four months later, Raditz finally managed to learn Kaioken, unfortunately, comparison made one despair, Goku took 2 months to catch Bubbles and hit Gregory with the heavy hammer. And in simply another 2 months, he learned Kaioken. Yet it took Raditz twice the time to learn the same technique. "Shit! Is this the main character halo? Or is Goku just so talented?!" Raditz grumbled in his mind. If his talent was half of Goku''s, then everything he did, required twice the effort to catch up with Goku, who is now his younger brother. Piccolo, although stronger than the rest of the group, he did not have the same talents as a Saiyan. It took more than 3 months for him to catch Bubbles and hit Gregory with the heavy hammer. The rest of the group had already caught Bubbles, but was still nowhere close to hitting Gregory. Instead, they had hammered King Kai''s planet into a beehive, large sized indents littered the whole planet. King Kai regretted making the 2nd challenge hitting Gregory with a heavy hammer. What was surprising was that Gohan did not fall behind the group of humans, he did quite well for just having started learning martial arts 4 months ago. Although he was still weaker than Yamcha, he was catching up at a quick pace, he was already as strong as Chiaotzu. Everyone praised Gohan''s talent, he was a natural martial artist. 8 Months passed, Raditz and Goku had learned Spirit Bomb, while Piccolo and Tien Shinhan had learned Kaioken. "How come Spirit Bomb is even harder!" Raditz complained silently. Goku learned Spirit Bomb in 2 months, meanwhile it took Raditz 6 months. Comparison really made one despair... If it wasn''t because Spirit Bomb was such an amazing attack that even killed Kid Buu, Raditz would not had put so much time just to learn this technique. Luckily, Saiyans were talented in energy manipulation, otherwise, he would be like Piccolo and the rest, who did not manage to learn Spirit Bomb. Even just the Kaioken was a big hurdle for the group. Gohan was really talented, but unfortunately, his martial arts experience was lacking, otherwise he would be the next to have learned Kaioken. But thanks to King Kai''s extra care, Gohan''s martial arts foundation is very sturdy now. Boom! Boom! Bang! Raditz and Goku clashed continuously in the air above King Kai''s planet. After several minutes, the two of them landed on the ground. "Hehehe, I''ve improved by a lot, right?" Goku smiled cheekily. "Yeah. Too much though..." Raditz mumbled. He used to be so much stronger than Goku, but now the two of them were almost equal. "Are they even humans?" Yamcha mumbled, the aftermath of the clashes earlier had almost sent the group flying. "They are Saiyans... Sigh..." Krillin corrected Yamcha and looked enviously at the Raditz and Goku. "Hmph! I won''t lose!" Piccolo clenched his fist hard. He had sparred several times with Goku, during these months, but each time, the gap between them grew wider and wider. "At least you did not feel the same despair I do..." Raditz looked at Piccolo''s fist and said quietly in his mind. He had had a much higher battle power that Goku a year ago, but now, the difference between them wouldn''t be more than a thousand battle power. The two of them did not experience any Zenkai during their training with King Kai, but Goku improved faster than Raditz, mastered the techniques faster than him, each and every time. Raditz was worried he would be left behind soon, with the rate Goku improved. He didn''t have the main character halo, he wasn''t especially talented, he was just a normal guy, who happened to take over Raditz'' body. King Kai, like usual, forgot to calculate the group''s time spent on returning, luckily, Raditz and Goku were a lot stronger than Goku was in the story, when he rushed back to Earth in haste. "We''ll go ahead." Goku said to the group and powered up, his Ki flared high up in the air and he flew toward the Snake Way. Raditz also powered up and flew away, Piccolo did not want to lose and followed the two. "Let''s follow them!" Gohan said and flew after the three. "Let''s go!" Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu also followed. "Damn it! Kaioken!" Piccolo saw the distance between him and Goku and Raditz increase, his Ki was lower than the two in front of him. He could only resort to Kaioken to follow them. His Ki shot up by 50% and he hurried after Goku and Raditz. "Tien Shinhan, are you also going to use Kaioken?" Krillin wondered. The only way for Tien Shinhan to catch up to the three in front, was to use Kaioken like Piccolo did. "No. My mastery of Kaioken is too low, I''m afraid I won''t be able to battle once I reach Earth if I use it now." Tien Shinhan shook his head. What use was it for him to use Kaioken now, if it would leave him incapacitated for the battle ahead. 8 Unexpected Situation One year passed in a breeze. Everyone was training enthusiastically. Goku and Piccolo were sparring in the air, due to the few potholes they had made in their earlier spar and gotten an earful reproach from King Kai. Gohan and Krillin were sparring on the ground since they were unable to make any visible damage to the planet and as such, King Kai did not disallow them from sparring on the ground. The rest were refining their fighting techniques. Pshhhh... The big metal cylinder shaped house''s door slowly opened as white gas sizzled out from the door''s edge. A limping Raditz dressed in his torn rag like clothes that could barely cling onto his body slowly made his way out from the doorway. "Ahh...! That was intense! I should really be careful in the future... If not for King Kai having a healing skill I would probably have to rely on a senzu bean. But... If I didn''t have one I would really be... So screwed!!" Raditz made a strong mental note in his mind to not carelessly train with the Gravity Chamber. Earth did not have a Rejuvenation Chamber like Frieza Force has. If he really were to get badly injured, he could potentially need a year to heal. All that time which could have been used to train. Or he might actually get killed if an enemy were to appear. Not to mention, Raditz was mesmerized by the Dragon Ball World and had the wish to travel in space. There might not be much danger on Earth, but in space, who knew what might exist there and what hostile aliens might appear. The first time he used the Gravity Chamber, he had also been too eager to train and severely injured himself over and over until he exhausted all his senzu beans. But at least, when training at King Kai''s place or at Kami''s place was fine, since both King Kai and Kami had healing skills. "Learning a healing skill would do wonders..." Raditz thought eagerly. After limping towards King Kai''s house for quite a long time. King Kai finally noticed Raditz''s bad condition and hurriedly ran up to him. "Ah! Raditz, you need to be careful when you train, if you were to cripple your limbs, then even my healing skill will be useless!" King Kai reprimanded Raditz, spitting out a mouthful of saliva which plastered Raditz''s face. "A- Alright! Hurry and heal me before I croak!!" Raditz hurriedly reminded King Kai to heal him first before he loses all his strength. "Oh right!" King Kai lightly patted his head and hurriedly pointed his pair of antennae at Raditz. Prururu! A gentle light flicked in front of King Kai''s antennae and healed up Raditz''s injuries after a few moments. "There you go! All nice and patched up! Hahaha!" King Kai laughed. Apparently he made a joke as if he patched up Raditz like patching a piece of cloth. "Thanks King Kai. Since you''re patching up, can you also make me a few dozens of training clothes?" Raditz asked naughtily. "Uhh... You really know how to work me to death!" King Kai gave a wry smile as he started materializing one set of clothes after another. After an hour, a cheerful Raditz packing away over 20 sets of training clothes into a storage capsule, with a huffing and puffing King Kai lying on the ground with beads of sweat covering his face. "That''s right. King Kai, it''s been a year. When are the Saiyans arriving on Earth? Raditz after putting on his new clothes, he remembered King Kai had said that the Saiyans would be arriving in a year. Because Raditz remembered from the story of how King Kai forgot to add in the time needed to traverse the Snake Way, Goku arrived late and lots of his friends ended up dying. Although it was a necessity in order for the story to advance to the Namek Saga, which only happened because Piccolo died and caused Kami to also die, so the dragon balls disappeared. "Yes! That''s right it has already been a year! Oh! how did I forget! Good thing you reminded me! Let me take a look." King Kai lightly patted his head and then he closed his eyes and his antennae shook slightly. "Hmmm... Hm... Eh?! They didn''t head to Earth! They had just traveled to a small planet that was in the direction of Earth. Raditz, didn''t you say the Saiyans were coming to Earth?" King Kai asked in confusion. He had calculated their arrival time to be a year from spacepods'' speed and the distance to Earth. But it turned out that they didn''t even have the intention to fly to Earth! "Eh?! Hm... I did not expect that. No, that should be the case since my intervention, the events aren''t progressing according to the original story now. Did Vegeta only move out immediately because he heard about the dragon balls being able to grant any wish? It seems Vegeta does not see me of any value at all. That''s right, he didn''t even try to use the dragon balls to wish for Raditz revival nor his father, or the whole Saiyan race. Haa... But according to the old Raditz''s memories, Vegeta is very vengeful, even if he lowers my priority, he will certainly come to Earth sooner or later... ... Meanwhile, Nappa and Vegeta were munching on some grilled foreign alien limbs. "Vegeta, according to Planet Ghwel''s starting position, it should have only taken Raditz a bit more than a year to arrive on Earth. Which means he should have arrived on Earth a year ago. But it''s been a year since we lost contact with Raditz. We agreed to meet up here on this planet with Raditz and Kakarot. Even if his scouter broke, it shouldn''t be a problem for Raditz to get here on time... Do you think he''s in trouble?" Nappa said. "That useless Radish boy! If he can''t even take care of a low level planet he can just die for all I can care." Vegeta sneered. "But Vegeta! Although Raditz is weaker than me, his battle power is 1,500! It''s not something a low level planet can produce. If Raditz is in trouble we should go and help him!" Nappa said. It seems unlike Vegeta, Nappa still cared about his teammates. "It will take us more than a year to fly to Earth from here. If he can''t even handle the planet alone a year ago, then he won''t survive until we arrive on Earth." Vegeta said indifferently as he continued munching on his food. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "If Raditz is dead we have to get revenge for him! He''s one of us few Saiyans that managed to survive the calamity." Nappa clenched his fist. "There''s no problems in getting revenge. But I can''t be bothered to go all my way there just to get revenge. Let''s take up the three planets closes to Earth after we finish taking on Planet Kawada." Vegeta intended to take on the missions to clear out the three planets closest to Earth and only then go to Earth as if it was an insignificant matter to take revenge for Raditz. "Planet Kawada... We were originally planning for Raditz and Kakarot to help us clear the planet. Vegeta, won''t the take over be too hard for just the two of us?" Nappa asked. They had originally sent Raditz to Earth to recruit Kakarot just because Planet Kawada was quite strong, once the four of them transformed into Great Apes, they would be able to take care of the planet. "It doesn''t matter, we don''t need trash that can''t even take care of a low level planet. With my 180,000 battle power once I''ve transformed, I''ll just need your assistance and we can take down the Kawada leader." Vegeta said arrogantly. Apparently, he had struck off Goku(Kakarot) and Raditz from his mental list as they couldn''t even survive on a low level planet like Earth. 9 Deep Regret And Self-Blame King Kai had taken another look and found out that the Saiyans were on their way to Planet Kawada. From the looks of it, even if the Saiyans were to immediately set off to Earth after they finish taking over Planet Kawada, it would take them at least 2 years. And from their current behavior, it did not seem like they were planning on going to Earth anytime soon. As such, a conservative estimate would be that they had atleast 3 years if not more until the Saiyans could potentially arrive. They did not know the reason why the Saiyans were not going to Earth, but everyone was happy with the outcome. "It probably is because Vegeta seems me as trash and has no regard for me at all... Without their knowledge of dragon balls, he has no motivation at all to come over to Earth... Well, he should still come sooner or later. Then, because I got rid of the transmitter in the scouter and have disconnected it from my former teammates, neither Vegeta nor Frieza will have learned of the dragon balls. Does that mean we won''t have much more danger ahead? Although both Earth and Planet Namek are in Frieza Force''s database, only Earth have prospects to takeover, Planet Namek''s climate is too harsh and they won''t have any interest in that planet, unless they happen to find information about the dragon balls. But that seems unlikely." Raditz pondered in his mind. "Then I only, no that means we only need to watch out for Vegeta, he''s more likely to take the mission to take over Earth than the others in Frieza Force. After Namek Saga is Frieza Saga, so I can kind of skip them...? After that is Android Saga. But they might be weaker since there won''t be any Frieza or King Cold arriving on Earth. Hm... Does that mean Cell Saga is going to be weaker? But Cell will probably still arrive from a parallel timeline. I''m not sure if the future timeline with... Uh... Trunks? I''m not even sure what will happen with Nappa and Vegeta now with the current events flowing in this direction. This should be the main timeline, only when the time machine travels back in time will a new timeline be created. That means Future Trunks could potentially not exist? Well there might not be any alternative timelines if I can manage this well... Since I know what will happen, I can be prepared for it!" Raditz clenched his fist and felt the strong power flowing through his arm and hand. After all the training during these past years, (1 year in Hyperbolic Time Chamber and 1 year on King Kai''s planet.) Raditz finally had some confidence in himself. Maybe Raditz wasn''t as useless and talentless as he thought. The Saiyans were indeed incredibly talented fighters. "As long as we can handle the Android Saga, and prepare for Goku''s heart disease, there won''t a reason for the future timeline to travel back in time. But this is quite confusing. I''m not really sure if this is really the main timeline now. Since Future Trunks traveled to the story''s timeline, it means that Future Trunks comes from the main timeline and the story''s timeline was actually just a branched timeline created from traveling in the time machine... So, if I''m in an alternative timeline and defeat the androids, will this become the main timeline, because there won''t be a reason for the future to travel back in time then? Ahh!! My God! I give up! I''ll just play by the ear and take care of things as it comes. If Future Trunks or another future guy comes, then that is that. But for now, I should think about Frieza and Vegeta." Raditz grabbed his head and felt as if he had smash his head from all the tumultuous thinking. "What''s wrong Big Brother?" Goku suddenly popped up right in front of Raditz. "Oh, Goku. No, it''s nothing. What''s up?" Raditz noticed the whole group had gathered around and asked. "We have learned pretty much everything from King Kai already, so after talking abit, we have decided to return back to Earth and continue training there. Although Krillin and the rest haven''t managed to learn Spirit bomb nor Kaioken yet, they have understood how to train in it and you, me, Tien Shinhan and Piccolo can help them in learning Kaioken as well. It''s been a whole year since we left Earth. I''m sure Chichi, Master Roshi, Bulma and everyone else are missing us as well! Come on, let''s go back to Earth together!" Goku said with a smile. "Alright, let''s do that." Raditz said with a wry smile after seeing the whole group had relaxed after knowing the danger had passed for now. There are so much more danger ahead, yet if the group relaxes already just at the start of the story. Who knows what will happen in the future. "Aaaahh.... Finally you''re leaving! Do you know just how much effort I have to put in to cook for the whole lot of you?!!! I barely had any time to rest!" King Kai shouted. "Oh please. I only drink water, it''s actually those three Saiyans that are eating more than ten times the rest of the group in total." Piccolo said with a playful smile. After spending a year together with everyone, even though he and the rest were enemies from the past. The enmity had cooled down and now, even Piccolo was comfortable enough to make jokes with the group. "That''s right! That''s right!" The rest of the group with only normal human stomachs chimed in. "I used to eat normally, but how come I now eat so much like daddy?" Gohan asked with a confused expression. "That''s right, Raditz you should know more about Saiyans than us. How come Goku and you have such a big appetite? Just how do you guys even manage to stuff in food ten times your size?" Krillin asked after sizing up both Goku and Raditz from head to toe. "Hm...? I guess it''s because our real forms are just gigantic?" Raditz pondered aloud. Thinking if it was because of their Great Ape transformations which were the reason for their near bottomless stomachs. "G-gigantic? Real forms?" Yamcha and Krillin stuttered and looked at each other''s eyes as if they were mentally conversing with each other. "Well, I might as well explain the Great Ape transformation for Goku. Lest he gets so shocked he loses all his fighting will like in the story when he saw Vegeta transform." Raditz looked at the confused Goku and thought. "During full moon, we Saiyans can transform into Great Apes, we''ll grow into gigantic apes around 20 meters tall and our battle power will be multiplied by 10." Raditz said. "M-multiplied by 10? That''s like 10 times kaioken, but without the negative effect of having our bodies overloaded! Damn it! Right now 2x Kaioken is my limit!" Piccolo gnashed his teeth. Saiyans had naturally stronger bodies, that is why Goku was barely able to use 3x Kaioken. "S-Say, Raditz. Does the Great Ape Transformation have any side effects? Or negative effects?" Both Yamcha and Krillin said in synch as if they had prepared a duet ahead of time. It seems Goku''s Great Ape Transformation had left a very deep impression on them. Tien Shinhan and Chiatzu looked confused at the duo. "Yes, unfortunately, most Low-class Saiyan warriors practically loses all consciousness while transformed, while Mid class warriors are half-conscious. But with training its possible for a few to fully retain their consciousness and be in full control while transformed. Elite Class warriors usually gain full control after just a few transformations." Raditz explained just what the old Raditz''s memories knew. It was much more comprehensive than what he had learned while he was a DragonBall fan and had scoured everywhere for information about Saiyans. But that wasn''t weird, after all, Raditz is a real bonafide Saiyan warrior. "Then Goku is a Low Class Warrior? What about you and Gohan?" Krillin asked after remembering that Raditz had said Goku''s battle power was really low at birth and had been sent away as an infiltration baby. He also remembered the time he had witnessed Goku transform during the World Martial Arts Tournament during their childhood while causing mindless destruction. "That''s right, I''m a Mid Class Warrior so there isn''t too much problem for me to transform. But the first few times a Saiyan transform is quite problematic and usually, they are supervised so they can get used to their transformation." Raditz looked at Gohan and continued "But I''m not sure how to class Gohan since he''s a half-human half-Saiyan, It''s likely that with half his blood being human, he will be half-conscious just like Mid Class warrior''s transformation." "But that is from Raditz''s experiences from transforming... Now that I''ve taken over, it shouldn''t be too much difference right? I do have his memories, but just in case I should still practice transforming a bit." Raditz thought and made a mental note. "That''s great! Then Gohan can achieve the same as 10x Kaioken after learning to control his transformation!" Krillin shouted excitedly. Thud! Suddenly, the group heard a loud sound as if something heavy fell to the ground. The group turned their heads and noticed Goku was on his knees, his face one of horror and shock. "I- I- I... G-grandpa... I killed grandpa?" Goku stuttered while breathing heavily. When he was a child he had always been careless and easy going. He was feeling extreme self-blame and regret. If only he had heeded his grandpa''s warnings to not look up at the moon during full moon. "Goku..." Krillin and Yamcha had learned that Goku''s grandpa had been stomped to death by a monster in Mt. Paozu. They had already suspected that the monster was Goku since his grandpa had specifically told Goku that the monster would only appear during a full moon and that Goku was not allowed to go out at night with full moon and look at the moon. "Dad...?" Gohan looked worriedly at Goku and slightly pulled Goku''s sleeve. "Well, I''m not supposed to know about Goku''s life..." Raditz scratched the back of his head helplessly. He naturally understood what Goku was feeling, but he didn''t really know what to do so he could only look as the rest of the group comforted Goku.

"I''ll look for Fortuneteller Baba!" Goku said and jumped off King Kai''s planet and landed on the tail of Snake Way. In no time, Goku had left the rest of the group behind and rushed off to go back to Earth. "Well it''s a good thing the Saiyans died out. Otherwise... With 4,000 Great Apes..." Krillin mumbled while imagining 4,000 Great Apes rampaging. Piccolo glanced at Krillin and turned his head away. With his superior hearing, it wasn''t weird that he could hear Krillin''s low sounded mumbles. An oblivious Raditz gathered the rest of the group and handed out a few storage capsules containing food for Gohan, Yamcha, Krillin, Tien Shinhan and Chiatzu. It wasn''t like they really had to run and fly with their lives on the line to traverse the million kilometers long Snake Way in a single day just so they won''t starve and become too weak to run fast and then truly starve to death. "Well, then I''ll head back first. You guys can take your time. Since Goku disappeared, I''ll leave you guys to take care of Gohan." Raditz reminded them to take care of the 5-year-old Gohan and flew away. "Me too." Piccolo said curtly and also flew away at high speed. "Well, let''s take our time. It''s not like we''re in a rush and the food Raditz gave us is enough to feed us for a month." Krillin said with a wry smile. They were the weakest in the group and didn''t have enough Ki to fly the whole Snake Way so they decided to just take their time and jog at a stable speed. "3x Kaioken!" Raditz shouted and pushed the Kaioken technique to amplify his Ki by 3x. Because his body was the strongest from the start, and having trained in the Gravity Chamber for 4 months in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. And then later on King Kai''s planet, he trained in the Gravity Chamber for 2 months. Raditz''s body was overflowing with abundant Ki, he had no problem flying the whole Snake Way and waste some Ki here and there and still not be out of breath. "What a nice feeling!" Raditz closed his eyes and felt the overwhelming Ki course through his body. Unfortunately, he did not have his scouter with him which he had left it with Bulma to study. But either way, his scouter was a first-generation scouter with a max reading of 24,000 Battle Power. He wouldn''t be able to read his own battle power once he used Kaioken to the limit. The only thing Raditz could do was hope Bulma managed to research a much more advanced scouter on her own after she analyzed his scouter. After a few hours, Raditz reached King Enma''s office and saw Kami waving at him. "Kami!" Raditz smiled, it had been a whole year since he last saw this old man. "Raditz! What''s going on with Goku? Why does he look so... Devastated?" Kami asked. "Ugh! It''s like this..." Raditz gave a simple brief over what happened. "I see. Then I believe Goku is looking for Fortuneteller Baba because she can contact his grandpa." Kami nodded his head. Afterward, Kami brought Raditz back to the Lookout by teleporting them. "This is just like Goku''s instant transmission, except Kami doesn''t need to lock onto another person''s Ki. Instead, it seems Kami is able to freely teleport. What an envious technique!" Raditz looked enviously at Kami. "Kami, can I learn your teleportation skill?" Raditz asked in an attempt. "This technique is called Kai Kai, unfortunately, it''s extremely hard to learn and places extremely heavy burdens on the user on each use. Even with your current Ki, it won''t even be enough to use it even once. Not to mention the high requirement on the spirit." Kami shook his head. "Kami, then how come you can use Kai Kai?" Raditz asked curiously. Kami only had a few hundred units in Battle Power, it was obviously that he was much weaker than Raditz. "Because I''m the Guardian of Earth, this position counts as a minor deity and comes with some special privileges such as being able to use such an advanced technique like Kai Kai which is usually only used by Gods or extremely strong people." Kami explained. "Alright, I got some business to take care of. See you later, Kami!" Raditz waved goodbye to Kami and jumped down from the Lookout. "Too bad King Kai''s healing skill only works on others and is quite hard to learn. Guess I''ll just have to rely on Senzu Beans then." Raditz shook his head. Once he learned that King Kai''s healing skill was very hard to learn and that it wouldn''t even work on the user himself. He gave up on trying to learn it. Who knew how many months he would need to learn it. Even learning the Spirit Bomb had taken Raditz half a year. Raditz flew down and landed on Korin Tower. "Hey, Korin! You have any Senzu beans?" Raditz asked. "Raditz! Sure, I got 6 beans, after I learned about the Saiyans, I''ve been trying hard to plant more Senzu beans. There should be another 3 beans in another half a year. How''s everyone''s training going?" Korin, the little cat sage smiled and threw a pouch filled with Senzu beans to Raditz. "Very well! All of us have definitively become much stronger. And we''ve also learned Kaioken, King Kai''s special Ki amplifying technique. I believe we can handle Vegeta and Nappa. But I''m not sure when they''ll arrive though." Raditz talked a bit about their training at King Kai. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Alright, I got some stuff to do. See you later, Korin!" Raditz waved his hand and flew away. "Let''s head over to Capsule Corp. I''ll need the Moon Projector in my spacepod, or if Dr. Brief or Bulma can make a miniature projector for me to bring along." Raditz muttered and flew toward West City. After half an hour, Raditz arrived in Capsule Corp. There were some usefulness and conveniences with Ki Sense, like now, Raditz simply sensed for Dr. Brief''s Ki and quickly moved toward him. Otherwise, with the Capsule Corp being as big as a village, it would take one forever to really find the Brief family. Or waste time waiting for them after asking them to come with the intercom. "Hi, Dr. Brief!" Raditz raised his palm and greeted Dr. Brief. "Oh! Well, if it isn''t Raditz! It''s been quite a long time since you last visited! Hahaha! Your spacepod is indeed made with very advanced technologies..." Dr. Brief began blabbering about all his discoveries. "Wait! I know you''ve reaped quite a lot of advanced alien technologies. Have you finished making a spaceship with a Gravity Chamber? I also need a Moon Projector like the one installed on my spacepod." Raditz quickly interjected before he was flooded by Dr. Brief''s long talk about science. "Yes, since you had raised that topic last time, though I did not manage to make a spaceship with a Gravity Chamber last time and could only make a separate Gravity Chamber in a short week. But now I''ve spent 4 months and made the finest spaceship with a disco dance floor and high quality speakers for the best music experiences..." Dr. Brief said with enthusiasm and pride. "I don''t remember telling you to add any disco or speakers for music..." Raditz said dumbfoundedly. "No, you did not. But I wanted to make the most phenomenal spaceship." Dr. Brief said with a wide smile. "Yeah, right." Raditz mentally rolled his eyes but did not tell him off. After all, he was receiving free work and stuff. Who else would he look for if he wanted some highly advanced technologies applied if not Dr. Brief or Bulma? "The Moon Projector in your spacepod projects a very realistic moon holograph and it even generates Blutz waves just like the real moon! I thought you would like a handheld version of the Moon Projector, so I also made one for you." Dr. Brief said while rummaging through his pocket and brought out a small cube half the size of a hand. "Look!" Dr. Brief said and tapped the top layer of the cube. Soon after, a big full moon appeared on ceiling of the room. "Alright! I got it!" Raditz barely saw the full moon through the edge of his vision and hurriedly tapped the top layer of the cube before pocketing it. "Phew! Just what would have happened if I transformed here..." Raditz muttered. Dr. Brief then brought the impatient Raditz to the spaceship and explained all the functions in the spaceship. After listening to Dr. Brief talking for 2 hours. Raditz finally turned the spaceship into a capsule while muttering "Damn he added so many useless stuff which is actually draining half of its fuel..." Later on, Raditz ate a wholesome banquet alone and filled up a few storage capsules with water and food. He also got his hands of a few maid droids which could come in handy. "Nice, they can cook thousands of various dishes and do all kinds of chores." Raditz smiled. Even the Earth here was so much more advanced in technologies than the Earth he came from before he transmigrated into the Dragon Ball World. Although they had started making robots, there were nowhere near in making them as skilled and autonomous as these maid droids. Since Raditz was curious about his current battle power and his maximum battle power after pushing the Kaioken to his limit. Raditz found Bulma''s Ki and ran to her. "Hey Bulma!" Raditz greeted casually. "Oh! Raditz! You''re back! Does that mean everyone is back as well?" Bulma said with a smile. "Nah, only me, Goku and Piccolo are back. The rest will take a few more days to arrive back on Earth." Raditz made an estimate based on the rest of the group''s Ki level. "Oh, why didn''t Goku come greet me with you?" Bulma pouted. "Uh... Well, you see..." Raditz explained how devastated Goku became after learning that he was the culprit that stomped his grandpa to death. "Sigh... I always suspected that to be the case after seeing Goku''s transformation when he was a kid." Bulma shook her head. "Anyway, I came to see how your research on my scouter is going. My scouter is a first generation scouter with a reading limit at 24,000 battle power. If possible I would like you to make a better scouter to read much higher battle power." Raditz explained his needs. Although he had learned Ki Sense, but he could only make a comparison of another person''s Ki compared to his own Ki and base their power gap by the disparity between their Ki. "Although it works well, but if I were to meet Frieza I''ll be screwed. His Ki will increase tremendously each time he transform. Honestly, I have no confidence in beating Frieza. In fact, I''m quite happy with the current development of events. We might not even have to cross Frieza. But the Android Saga is still quite a big enigma. They can either be weaker than in the storyline or the same. So I will need to atleast be Super Saiyan to survive. The biggest problem is that they have infinite energy so we''ll need to quickly overpower them to win. So about the Ascended Super Saiyan level should do." Raditz thought. "Yes, the scouter was quite crudely made, here is the new scouter I made. It''s also in Universal Language and the reading limit should be much higher since I, this genius girl improved it." Bulma stuck out her nose proudly and handed over a new scouter to Raditz. "Thanks! You''re the best! And you don''t need to worry about the Saiyans, with our training at King Kai''s place, we''ll easily beat their asses red. And for some reason, they seem to be taking a detour to take over a few planets before they plan to come here. So it''ll take them a few more years before they come to Earth." Raditz said before running out of the building. Poof! Raditz pressed the button on the spaceship capsule and threw it forward. He opened the hatch and boarded the ship. Bulma picked up another scouter from her room and put it on before tapping the button on the side. Beep! Beep! Beep! " 2,000 Battle Power? Raditz only got a bit stronger from his initial 1,500? How can he say they have gotten stronger?! Vegeta has a battle power of 18,000! We''re screwed! Raditz must have turned mental from worry!!" Bulma threw away the scouter and squatted down while she clutched her head in panic. Meanwhile, a leisure Raditz had launched up the spaceship. Little did he know that Bulma was panicking because he had suppressed his Ki. 11 Flying In Space While looking at the spaceship flying out of Earth, Raditz stood near the window and looked out. "Hehehe! Although I''m not the first person flying into space, it sure is amazing to be able to fly in space like this. This spaceship is much more advanced than those spaceships from my Earth." Raditz smiled and took in the view. The blue planet called Earth shrunk into a small ball before disappearing from his view. "I might not be so talented to be able to transform into Super Saiyan so early like Bardock or Goku. But I know that the S-cells will increase as a Saiyan increases their battle power. I just need to increase my battle power to a few million before it''s a sure thing for me to transform into a Super Saiyan. Just like how Goten and Trunks could transform into Super Saiyans as kids, it is precisely because they had so many S-cells that they could naturally transform into a Super Saiyan without any effort." Raditz smiled. As a super DragonBall fan, how could he have not dreamed of becoming a Super Saiyan with golden hair? Feeling his dream in his reach, he started to get impatient. The spaceship flew for a few hours before landing on a desolate planet. "This spaceship''s speed is awesome! It practically flew what would have taken my spacepod a month to fly in just a few hours!" Raditz exclaimed happily. Although he did not experience it personally. But from the old Raditz''s memories, he had learned that a typical mission would require him to hibernate in the spacepod anywhere from a few months to a year or two depending on the distance he needed to fly. After comparing the two''s speed, he was naturally ecstatic with his new spaceship. After all, who wants to fly for years while sleeping right? Raditz cursed Frieza Force for their inhumane mass-produced spacepods for a bit before opening the hatch and alighted from the spaceship. "Alright, let''s try the Great Ape Transformation. I got to make sure I''ll be fine. Vegeta will definitely use Great Ape Transformation once he''s unable to win against us. With Goku''s tail gone, only me and Gohan can transform. Gohan might not have control over his transformation, but with his half human blood, it shouldn''t be hard for him to regain some reason just like in the story where he played a big part in them defeating Vegeta." Raditz pondered and pressed a button on the spaceship and turned it into a capsule. "How convenient!" Raditz smiled and put away the small capsule. "But it''s not good to depend too much on chance. Since the story here have diverged from the storyline already, I should try to gain full control over my transformation. Of course, the best turn of event is to pummel Vegeta and cut off his tail before he even manages to transform. But I still should try out my transformation. After taking over Raditz''s body, I''m not sure if things will be the same and leave me half-conscious and somewhat able to control my transformation." Raditz muttered. "Besides, who wants to cut off their own finger or limbs? My tail is just like another limb for me. Not to mention the pain from cutting off ones limb. I got to be crazy if I want to cut off my own tail. So it''s necessary for me to have some control over my transformation. But a simple matter like this shouldn''t be a problem for Shenron, if I simply wished for full control over my transformation. I''ll leave it as my backup plan if I fail to gain control over my transformation." Raditz thought. "Okay, let''s try out this little cube." Raditz withdrew a small cube and tapped the top before throwing it a distance away. A full moon suddenly appeared in the dark sky. Raditz turned his head up and stared at the full moon in the sky nervously. "Oh shit! I forgot to remove my clothes!" Raditz was no longer wearing his spacesuit with ultra stretchable features and only some normal and sturdy training clothes King Kai had made for him. Although they were sturdy, it would still be impossible for the clothes to stay intact after Raditz transforms into a 20 meter giant Great Ape. Ba-bump! Ba-bump! Raditz felt his heart beating harder and stronger with each heartbeat. Ba-bump! Ba-bump! Ba-bump! His heart beat faster and faster. Suddenly, Raditz''s body bloated up and just like a balloon, his body swelled up like crazy and grew larger at a visible speed. His clothes stretched beyond its limits and broke into rags and fell down to the ground. "Growl! So this is how it feels like to transform into a Great Ape" Raditz growled as he grew bigger and bigger. Dark brown fur covered his naked body, his eyes turned red, his jaws protruded forward. Soon, sharp carnivorous white teeth covered his jaws. Raditz was prepared and waited for the moment he would lose his consciousness as he watched his own transformation continue. After a few more moments, a fully grown 20 meter tall Great Ape stood on the desolate planet all alone. "I wonder if it''s soon? I already finished my transformation..." Raditz muttered as he waited for himself to lose control. Seconds turned into minutes, after waiting for more than 10 minutes. A confused Great Ape Raditz moved his new and unfamiliar body around. "This!? Don''t tell me I''m so talented just like those Elite Class Warriors?" Raditz thought smugly as he got more familiar with his transformed body. "But that isn''t right. Raditz is clearly one of the lower tiered Mid Class Warriors. Althought it matters little once a Saiyan''s battle power exceeds a million. The amount of S-cells a Saiyan has at that point renders the innate talent classifications useless..." Raditz double checked the old Raditz memories. "Then it means... That Raditz''s talents changed after I took over his body? Or could it be that my consciousness is much stronger...? Because I''ve merged with Raditz''s soul and therefore has his memories? Then it means my soul is much stronger. Or maybe it''s a transmigration gift we transmigrators usually receive?" Raditz muttered. The large Great Ape supported it''s chin with its right palm and tapped his temple slowly with it''s left hand''s forefinger. "Since I got full control over my transformation... What if I use Kaioken? Will 2x Kaioken mean 20x my base battle power?" Raditz thought excitedly. Raditz hurriedly tried to use Kaioken in his transformed state. After a few tries of failure, he gave up. "I''m still too clumsy. I''ll need to spend some more time familiarizing myself with my new form. I need to be as agile as I am in my normal state." Raditz grasped the problem. "That''s fine, I have not urgent business to take care of. And I already prepare enough food for 6 months." Raditz smiled and started practice in his transformed state. 2 Months passed. Raditz would train in his transformed state once in awhile. The transformation gave Raditz 10x his power, but it also required alot of energy to perform the transformation as well as sustaining it. Each time he finished his training in his transformed state, Raditz would be severely weakened and needed plenty of rest. He only had 6 senzu beans and couldn''t afford to squander them just to recover from his exhaustion. There were senzu beans! Capable of healing any physical injuries as long as one was still alive. Since the transformation would take alot out of him, Raditz would rest for a day before training in the Gravity Chamber for a few days, then take another day off to rest before he transformed into a Great Ape again. "Although I only managed to train for half a month with my transformation, I can now use 2x Kaioken in my transformation. Too bad the transformation takes too much energy out of me and even caused me to eat more food. The 6 months'' worth of food ended up being finished in just 2 months." Raditz mumbled. Raditz had measured his battle power before he began training on this planet and after he finished his 2 months training. His battle power was 16,000 before the training. Since Goku''s body was weaker than Raditz''s, his battle power was likely somewhere around 12,000 to 14,000. Now, after the two months of training, Raditz''s battle power was measured at 42,000. His body had adapted more to higher gravity and he was now able to train in 55x gravity. The reason he is adapting so slowly is that he did not want to waste the few precious senzu beans he had to train as extremely as Goku did on his trip to Namek. Instead, he slowly increased the gravity little by little as he got used to the gravity. "I can handle 10x Kaioken in short bursts, but I''ll need to take a senzu bean afterward regardless if I get injured or not. So 6x Kaioken is the best for now. That is 6x42,000 = 252,000 battle power, not bad at all. And if I were to transform into a Great Ape, 420,000 Battle Power, or with 2x Kaioken, 840,000 Battle Power!" Raditz smiled from his accomplishment.

"Sigh... Although in my strongest form, my power is closing in on a million. My actual base battle power is just 42,000. If I want to transform into a Super Saiyan, I need several million of battle power to have enough S-cells... Unless I get a chance to become as angry as Goku did when Frieza killed Krillin." Raditz sighed. "I remember it was Age 767, 12th May. The day that the androids appeared on that island southwest of South City. Right now is Age 762, December. Hum... About 4 and a half years. I have to work hard! But I should also be prepared in case Frieza happens to appear... I''ll have to urge Goku, Piccolo, and Gohan to train harder." Raditz said with a wry smile. "As for Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan and Chiatzu... Sorry, I don''t have the heart to tell you guys but I doubt you can do anything more than be cannon fodder." Raditz thought of their training at King Kai. Everyone was so excited and motivated. They trained so hard everyday and they smiled so radiantly... After thinking about it for a bit, he decided to let them be and not discourage them. After a few hours, the spaceship closed in on the blue planet called Earth. "Eh? Is that a giant tree?" Raditz''s eyes popped out. There was a gigantic tree with green leafy canopy growing out of Earth. Although the tree looked small in comparison to the big Earth, it had grown out of Earth''s atmosphere already. Raditz remembered just how gigantic the Tree of Might was in the anime. "Oh shit! Will they be alright? I remember Goku was stronger in the Tree of Might movie because he had fought a life and death battle with Vegeta, after a Zenkai he was much stronger... Maybe with 30,000 in battle power. But right now, he might have gotten stronger than he did in the storyline from training at King Kai because he wasted a lot of time on traversing the Snake Way. And also because he borrowed my Gravity Chamber for a bit. But either way, his battle power won''t be even close to 30,000!" Raditz started to worry. He had spent 2 months in space. Who knew when Turles had arrived, a month ago? If so, could Goku and them still be alive after so long? Seeing how the Tree of Might was still there could only mean that Goku and the rest had not defeated Turles yet at least. "I hope the tree had just grown. The only thing good is that the Tree of Might requires an enormous amount of nutrition, the fact that Earth still looks okay, can only mean that it hasn''t been too long since the tree was planted." Raditz consoled himself. Raditz went to the control board and steered the spaceship to land near the gigantic tree. "What an enormous Ki! It doesn''t feel familiar. Could it be Turles? Just how many fruits of Tree of Might did he eat?" After the spaceship approached the tree, Raditz immediately was alarmed from the gigantic Ki emitted by someone next to the tree. "Is that over 400,000 battle power?" Raditz frowned upon comparing the big difference between his Ki and the enormous Ki that was likely 10x his Ki. Soon, Raditz began to sense several weaker Ki. "That''s Goku''s Ki! Damn it! His Ki is so weak it''s almost disappearing!" Raditz was alarmed and hurriedly opened the hatch even before the spaceship landed and flew toward Goku''s Ki. "Goku!" Raditz saw Goku all bloodied lying on a gigantic tree root. "Here! Eat a senzu bean!" Raditz hurriedly put a senzu bean into Goku''s mouth. Crunch, crunch... Gulp! With great effort, Goku chewed the senzu bean and swallowed it. "Haaa... Thanks, big brother!" Goku, now all healed up and energetic. Jumped up and thanked Raditz for saving him. "Wow. Although I already knew its effects. But seeing it with my own eyes is so much more amazing!" Raditz exclaimed after seeing Goku fully recover from his earlier crippled state. Although he had used senzu beans before, it had never been when he was so badly injured and crippled that he could not even move a finger. After all, someone had to feed him the senzu bean if he were in that state. "Damn did Goku''s Ki just increase by so much? It''s already close to mine after his Zenkai." Raditz said inwardly after sensing Goku''s Ki. "What do we have here? Another Saiyan? This time a real Saiyan with his tail intact!" An arrogant voice came from beyond. "Turles!" Goku yelled angrily. The speaker appeared and he looked just like Goku, except his skin color was slightly darker. "I didn''t think of this earlier. But since Turles appeared, does that mean this is really an alternative timeline? After all, the forums discussed about the paradox of Goku fighting Turles when he''s actually in Namek. Now I''m really curious about what would have actually happened if this timeline actually progressed normally. Would Goku really go to Namek then? And if so, what would have happened to Earth. Well, too bad I have no thoughts of dying just so the story will follow the storyline." Raditz frowned as he looked at Turles. Beep! Beep! Beep! Poof! Turles scanned Raditz''s battle power when the scouter suddenly exploded. "Raditz! What are you doing here? Did your team decide to take over Earth?" Turles asked warily. He himself was a Low Class Saiyan Warrior and was wary of Raditz who was a Mid Class Warrior. "It seems that he has no idea his Ki is over 10 times mine. That seems normal, I would be the same if I didn''t learn Earth''s Martial Arts." Raditz thought silently. Since the scouter broke after scanning Raditz''s battle power, it could only mean that his scouter was a first generation scouter with a max reading limit of 24,000 battle power. "Why do you care?" Raditz said rudely. "Hmph! Just because you''re a Mid Class Warrior with another Mid Class warrior and a Super Elite Class Warrior. Don''t think you can belittle me now!" Turles sneered and took out a red fruit with many bumps on it and started eating it. Maybe he was worried about fighting the Prince Vegeta, Super Elite in Raditz''s former team. Little did he know that Raditz had already defected from Vegeta. "Damn it! Can''t let him eat more! Otherwise, this will become problematic!" Raditz rushed toward Turles. Just as he reached Turles, Turles had just finished eating the fruit of Tree of Might. Raditz could already feel Turles'' Ki increase. "10x Kaioken!" Raditz activated Kaioken and amplified his Ki by 10 times before punching Turles. "Not bad strength! I might have been in trouble if I did not eat that fruit just now." Turles sneered after blocking Raditz punch with his forearm. Bam! Bam! Smash! Raditz and Turles flew up into the skies and threw punches and kicks at each other. Although Turles was stronger than Raditz, with Raditz''s own experiences of the Saiyan''s savage fighting style. Raditz could predict most of Turles'' moves, now that he had refined his own fighting style after learning Earth''s Martial Arts, he no longer fought so crudely with his fighting style relying simply on sheer brute strength. Raditz punched and deflected Turles attacks over and over. But due to the disparity in Ki, Raditz could not dish out any real damage to Turles. "Damnit! I can''t hold on much longer with 10x Kaioken if this continues! Come on! My body, you can handle 11x Kaioken!" Raditz pushed his Kaioken further to amplify his Ki to 11 times, while at the same time clenching his teeth from the pain of overloading his body. "Go go go! You can do it, big brother!" Goku was cheering at the side. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Ugh! Why are you just watching me fight? Shouldn''t you pincer attack him with me?" Raditz complained internally. Though he already knew Goku''s personality which is to fight fairly one on one. Raditz clashed again and again with Turles and started to inflict some injuries. Though not severe, small injuries would slowly build up. Turles wasn''t an idiot and had tried to pull away from Raditz to eat another Fruit of Tree of Might, but Raditz intercepted him. "Idiot!" Raditz slammed his body into Turles without regard to injuries and snatched the fruit from Turles. "Bastard!" Turles cursed after seeing Raditz hold the fruit which was originally his. Cough! Raditz coughed out a mouthful of blood. The only reason he had managed to gain the upper hand in the earlier battle was because Raditz was more skilled in fighting than Turles. Now that he let Turles attack him without defending himself just so he could snatch the fruit, Raditz got badly injured. Even though Raditz was using 11x Kaioken, Turles'' Ki was still higher than Raditz''s by a notch. If they were to fight simply by brute force, Raditz would have ended up losing the battle. "With the fruit, my base power will increase enormously. Then I can easily beat Turles!" Raditz thought and opened his mouth. "No! If I don''t rely on battles to grow stronger, I don''t know when I''ll reach a million in battle power! And most of all, I''m totally missing out on the Zenkais if I don''t do battles like this!" Raditz suddenly stopped and retracted his hand that held the fruit from entering his mouth and put away the fruit. "Hahaha! You fool!" Turles had been anxious when he saw Raditz about to eat the fruit, but seeing how he hesitated and then put away the fruit. Turles heaved a sigh in relief. "Hmph! So what if my body breaks! I got plenty of senzu beans! 12 times! no 13x Kaioken!" Raditz decided to teach Turles a lesson. 13 Amazing Zenkai! "Not enough! 14x Kaioken!" Sensing that his Ki was now larger than Turles, Raditz gave up on defense and started trading blows with Turles. Both sides were coughing blood with each additional blow. "C-Crazy bastard!" Turles cursed Raditz who suddenly turned crazy and decided to trade blows instead of slowly whittling down Turles''s strength like he did earlier. "Heh! Since I''m taking damage using 14x Kaioken like crazy already. It doesn''t make a difference if I trade blows like this!" Raditz sneered inwardly. He was no longer in a condition to even speak. In just a few more seconds, and he might croak. Unfortunately, Turles had no idea and could only pit himself against Raditz in a hope of killing Raditz before he himself gets killed. Otherwise, he would do all he can to delay Raditz from landing blows on him. "Die!" Raditz knew he could not delay anymore and grabbed Turles, giving up on all defense, he concentrated all his Ki into his hand and punched with all his might. Boom! Turles got smashed to the ground, a 10 meter large crater formed under his unrecognizable body that had turned into a pulp. "Shit! This was not safe at all!" Raditz cursed before losing all his strength and fell from the skies. He had believed he would not in any danger with the senzu beans. But he didn''t really have any chance to even pull out a senzu bean in that intense battle. Maybe Turles feared that Raditz would pull away and attempt to slowly whittle down his strength again, so he clung onto Raditz with all his might. "Big brother!" Goku rushed forward and caught Raditz. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Ugh! I''m dying! Hurry and feed me a senzu bean!" Raditz yelled internally. He could no longer speak. Blood flowed out in a spiderweb-like pattern that covered all over his body, it was as if his whole body were about to shatter apart like glass. "Here! It''s a senzu bean!" Goku pulled out a senzu bean from the pouch inside Raditz''s clothes. He had seen Raditz retrieve a senzu bean earlier for him and remembered it. Maybe because Kaioken put a burden on every part of his body, because he had gone way beyond his limit with using the Kaioken, Raditz could not even move his jaw to chew the senzu bean. "You can''t chew? Let me help you!" Maybe because of their brotherly relation, Goku immediately understood Raditz''s predicament and helped him chew by moving Raditz''s chin up and down and then pushed down the chewed up senzu bean paste down Raditz''s throat with his finger. Gulp! Raditz''s body had already started convulsing from the extreme pain he experiences from outside and the inside of his body. Even his organs were starting to fail. But as soon as Raditz managed to swallow the senzu bean, as if a ball of energy had appeared in his stomach, the energy split apart and spread all over his body, healing and rejuvenating him all over from inside out. Howl! Raditz felt like he had heard a Great Ape''s howl just now as he slowly stood up and inspected his now fully healed body. "Senzu beans are such a miraculous medicine..." Raditz muttered and clenched his fist, feeling the strong power flowing through his arm up to his hand. He had not only fully recovered and had his energy replenished, but his strength had also skyrocketed. "Such power! Just how much have my battle power increased?" Raditz muttered. By his Ki Sense, he was sure his battle power was now over 300,000! Only now could he relax and survey the surrounding. Turles'' subordinates were all dead and their corpses littered around here and there. Raditz saw a naked Gohan sleeping. And further away, Piccolo was slowly making his way over, his left arm was missing, his right arm was covering his left arm stump that was bleeding purple blood. "Why does it seem like Piccolo just has to lose his arm in every battle? At least he is the one who loses his arms the most in the Dragonball story." Raditz lampooned inwardly. "Haaah!" Piccolo shouted. Spurt! A bunch of liquid spurted out as a new left arm sprouted out from Piccolo''s arm stump. "That really looks disgusting, but it''s still an enviable ability that makes Namekians almost unkillable once they are strong enough." Raditz complained yet envied in his mind. Piccolo turned even more exhausted after regrowing his left arm and simply sat down instead of continuing walking over to Goku and Raditz. "Goku, go take care of everyone, I''ll handle the tree." Raditz pointed at the Tree of Might after he sensed everyone''s Ki. Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiatzu were all alive. Maybe because they were a lot weaker, when they got knocked out they were simply ignored by Turles and his subordinates since they had to fight Piccolo and Goku. Raditz gave a last look at the naked sleeping Gohan and thought "Goku''s broken bones... Was he crushed by Gohan''s Great Ape transformation? Since Gohan is a lot stronger now. His battle power might be around 60,000 after transforming... Even if Goku has a battle power of 15,000 then with 3x Kaioken it''ll just be 45,000. No wonder he was in such a bad state earlier... Turles, he really likes to mess around." Turles who had over 400,000 battle power could easily kill Goku, but instead he just had to play around and make Gohan transform and hurt Goku. "Wow, so many fruits. Although most are unripe, there are quite a few ripe ones left." Raditz looked greedily at the fruits hanging on the Tree of Might. "What a harvest! 8 Ripe ones and 50 unripe fruits." Raditz collected all the fruits and put them in a storage capsule. "Then, I should uproot it before it causes more damage to Earth. Although I would love to grow and harvest more fruits, if left unhandled, Earth will really get destroyed." Raditz sighed and flew down to the trunk. "3x Kaioken!" Feeling great resistance from the trunk, Raditz simply activated Kaioken and uprooted the gigantic tree with its roots that covered half the Earth''s surface. Just as Raditz flew far up in the skies while hugging the gigantic trunk of the Tree of Might, the tree seemingly had a mind of its own and had noticed that it was uprooted, it quickly curled in its roots around its trunk into a ball of roots. Although the roots did not bind Raditz, his surrounding was covered in tree roots. "It''s sentient? Don''t tell me it wants to deal with me after I uprooted it?" Raditz was shocked by its actions and stopped flying upwards and stayed suspended in midair. Just as Raditz was ready to deal with the tree, the tree roots started drying up and turning all wrinkly before falling apart like dust. Even the trunk crumpled up and turned into dust which then had the wind blow them away. All that was left after the trunk disappeared was a small seed that was slightly bigger than a senzu bean. "This is a seed of the Tree of Might?" Raditz''s eyes were popping out, he hurriedly caught the seed before it dropped down from the sky. "Maybe I can really grow and harvest more fruits in the future..." Raditz immediately thought of using the seed when he travels around in space. Raditz turned his head around, looking for his spaceship. After looking around, he found his spaceship had landed a distance away from him. After finding his spaceship, Raditz did not delay and flew toward it and turned it into a capsule and put it away. "Everyone has gathered." Raditz sensed that everyone''s Ki was together and flew toward them. Everyone was fine now and had gathered together. Gohan had woken up and was playing with a purple dragon. It had 2 pairs of horns growing horizontally on the sides of its face and 2 horns growing at the top of its head and a pair of tiny wings that don''t seem capable of flying the dragon. Raditz greeted everyone and got thanked by the group for his help in defeating Turles. Afterward, Yamcha threw a capsule that turned into an aircraft. Everyone boarded the aircraft and Yamcha brought every back to each of their own homes. The Icarus, purple dragon alone would fit inside the aircraft, but with everyone already inside, it could only fly along with the aircraft. 14 Trivial Wish During the ride on Yamcha''s aircraft, Raditz had brought the topic about his Gravity Chamber which everyone had seen when they trained at King Kai''s place. At first, they had thought it was something exclusive from space. But turns out it was actually manufactured by Dr. Brief. Raditz had told everyone about his Gravity Chamber on board the aircraft mainly because he wanted Goku, Piccolo, and Gohan to do more gravity training. As for Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiatzu, they had human physiques and would have a much harder time adapting to higher gravity than Saiyans and Namekians. Though Tien Shinhan had three eyes and might have some kind of special bloodline and might have some unexpected gains with gravity training. Especially since Tien Shinhan was the only human among the human group that managed to master Kaioken during their one year training at King Kai''s place. "Even though Piccolo will have a much lower battle power for a long time until he fuses back with Kami, and if his base battle power is much higher, he should become even stronger after fusing with Kami." Raditz looked at Piccolo and thought about the future Super Namekian. "But right now we don''t have any reason to go to Planet Namek, nor any good ways to form close relations to a skilled Dragon Clan Namekian to migrate to Earth and make Dragon Balls for Earth." Raditz thought. "For now, it''s best to not let Kami fuse with Piccolo so we end up without the Dragon Balls then..." Raditz shook his head. "The fight with Turles was really crazy, but to think I didn''t feel scared at all... This is the Saiyan blood''s side effect right? They really are fearless warriors for a reason." Raditz then thought back to his almost dying state from the earlier battle. It was his first actual fight in the Dragon Ball World, yet he had simply rushed in so foolishly without fear which did not seem logical. "The good thing is that the battle won''t be affected by nervousness or fear. But at the same time, I seem to turn into a hotblooded musclehead..." Raditz frowned. "But then, again it''s not so dangerous as I thought... I got the Dragon Balls to wish me back if something really happens..." Suddenly Raditz remembered the cheat in the Dragon Ball World. "I really feel like punching Krillin and Gohan...!" Suddenly remembering about the Dragon Balls, Raditz had just heard them retell the whole story to how Turles and them had come and even caused a forest fire which burnt down the whole forest nearby. Seeing how the forest was barren, Krillin and Gohan used the Dragon Ball to restore the forest. "I really wanted to make a wish! Although I know the planet names like Namek and Yardrat. And that Frieza Force''s database got their coordinates. But there is no way for me to go back to them and ask them for the coordinates... I had wanted to use the Dragon Balls to ask Shenron for help." Raditz sighed. Now he would have to wait for another year before the Dragon Balls were usable again. "No, wait! I can ask King Kai for help! He always helped Goku finding planets to when Goku wanted to teleport there." Raditz remembered. "I got plenty of time, so I should learn Instant Transmission first! Hm... Should I bring Goku with me? Because the story has diverged from the original storyline, Goku never left Earth for Namek, and never boarded Ginyu team''s spacepod so he will never end up in Planet Yardrat. Teleporting would come in handy after all. Then I might as well bring Piccolo? Unfortunately, Gohan is too young, he would probably waste more time than necessary to learn it. With his talent, it''s better for him to focus on training instead. I can always bring him to learn Instant Transmission in the future." Raditz planned in his mind. Raditz followed Goku and Gohan and stayed over at Mt. Paozu for awhile. He needed to teach Gohan to control his Great Ape transformation. Chichi was really angry when Goku had just returned home after his training at King Kai, especially for brining away the 4 year old Gohan at that time. Luckily Raditz had not followed them home at that time and managed to escape Chichi''s outburst. This time when they returned home, Chichi warmly welcomed everyone. She also treated Raditz especially well like a textbook wife treats her husband''s family warmly, Raditz as her brother-in-law had a satisfying time staying over at Goku''s home.

With Goku and Raditz''s guidance and help, Gohan only spent 3 transformations before he could control himself from attacking his friends. Only a week had passed since Raditz started living at Mt. Paozu. It was likely his human part which made him have a much easier time from losing reason. "Good! Now you''re good to go. Even if you can''t control your body, you won''t endanger others either when you transform. Now you can continue training on your own." Raditz said to the naked Gohan. "Goku you''re going to Bulma now?" Raditz asked Goku who seemed impatient to leave for West City. "Yes! I''m really eager to have my own Gravity Chamber to train in! Let''s have a fight after I''ve trained myself stronger!!" Goku said happily. "Sounds good. I left my spacesuit over at her home when I first arrived on Earth. It''s made with the ultra stretchable materials specifically made for us Saiyans to transform into Great Apes without having to worry about our clothes getting destroyed. Can you ask Bulma or her father to make some training clothes with similar effects? It would really be useful for me and Gohan." Raditz said. "No problem! See ya!!" Goku waved goodbye and flew toward West City. "Hm... Goku seems to have fully recovered from before..." Raditz muttered after seeing Goku all happy go lucky again. "Uncle Raditz, daddy had a really long talk with grandpa before he came back home. Grandpa said he never ever blamed daddy and wished for him to live a happy life. Grandpa also said he would watch over us all from heaven." Gohan explained for Raditz after hearing his muttering. "Chichi really does seem like a really good housewife. Her cooking skills are great and she''s a former martial artist with great strength for a human. So she can really handle cooking three meals for three hungry Saiyans everyday without keeling over from exhaustion. The only weird trait she has is that she, who came from a martial art family is so intent on having Gohan to become a scholar when he grows up..." Raditz thought back to the week''s experience. "But home tutoring isn''t a bad thing since there are no schools nearby in the mountain. But what''s with the overscheduling? Gohan isn''t allowed to play in the forest nor with Goku... For God''s sake, he''s just a 5 year old kid! Instead Chichi wants Gohan to study and study until night after home tutoring. And even in his sleep, she has the sleep learning audio set with headphones for Gohan to wear while sleeping..." Raditz facepalmed. "Anyways... I tried yelling for King Kai. But I bet he''s either sleeping or playing with his car." Raditz had tried yelling out in the middle of the mountain for King Kai''s attention. But it didn''t seem like King Kai noticed him at all. "But that''s also fine, I happen to need to replenish my training clothes. Might as well pay King Kai a visit." Raditz smiled and flew to the Lookout. 15 Wanna come along to Planet Yardrat? "Hey, King Kai!" Raditz appeared traversed the Snake Way in no time and appeared on King Kai''s planet in just an hour. Raditz had already measured his new battle power with his scouter, it was 380,000. But unfortunately, the scouter broke once Raditz activated 3x Kaioken. The reading limit was likely below 1 million battle power. Raditz was planning to pay a visit to Bulma once he returned to ask for a more advanced scouter to be made. "Ah?! Raditz! You gave me a fright!" King Kai jumped up in fright from Raditz''s sudden appearance. He held both his hands onto his chest as if his heart was about to burst out and was doing his best to keep it put. "I tried yelling for you on Earth. But it didn''t seem like you noticed." Raditz said casually. "Oh, I can''t really hear you unless I''m focusing on you, you know?" King Kai spread out his hands as if to indicate his helplessness. "I see. Well, I came looking for you to ask for your help to find a few coordinates." Raditz did not beat around the bush and directly stated his intentions. "You''re not going to do anything bad right?" King Kai asked. "No, I just want to learn abit of knowledge from them." Raditz said. "Okay, I can trust you. What planets are you looking for? You need to atleast know their names, or else you''ll be wasting my time." King Kai said. "Yes, its Planet Namek and Planet Yardrat." Raditz said. After awhile, Raditz left with a bundle of training clothes and a dead tired King Kai laying on the grass like a dead fish. After returning to Earth, Raditz paid a visit to Bulma and asked for her to improve the scouter. He also paid Dr. Brief a visit to ask him to continue making more spaceships and also took the opportunity to refill his stock of food. "Hm... it''ll take me 3 months to travel to Planet Yardrat. Because I ran out of food last time I went to space... I''ll just overstock just in case." Raditz did not want to end up starving to death in the middle of nowhere in space. So he stocked up 10 years'' worth of food for a Saiyan. "Piccolo only needs to drink water, so with Goku it''ll last us 5 years. 3 Months flight to there and 3 months flight back, I might also be able to stock up at Planet Yardrat so it''s more than enough." Raditz nodded his head. "Though it''s quite perplexing how Piccolo manages to retain his strength from only ingesting water... Is he like a plant relying on photosynthesis? Or is his body capable of separating water molecules into oxygen and hydrogen atoms and then do fusion reactions by turning hydrogen into helium and a large mass of energy? The principle would be similar to how hydrogen bombs are made..." Raditz pondered over the Namekians'' wonderous body. Not only were they able to regenerate any parts of their body as long as their core remains intact and they have enough energy, they only needed to drink water to survive. Raditz suddenly had an urge to dissect Piccolo to find out if he really can do hydrogen fusion reactions. He was also interested in Piccolo''s cheat-like regeneration ability. Cell was a good example of exploiting a Namekian''s regeneration ability with Saiyan cell. A normal regrowth of a body part for a Namekian meant a huge loss of Ki. But Cell was able to become even stronger after regenerating his whole body after he had exploded himself. This was the power of a Saiyan''s Zenkai when paired with a Namekian''s Regeneration ability. Raditz had planned to leave for Planet Yardrat anytime soon, but Bulma had invited him to celebrate New Years in two week. Therefore, Raditz decided to stay and celebrate New Years before leaving, since the trip will take at least 6 months, not calculating the amount of time needed for him to master Instant Transmission. Raditz left the Capsule Corp with a new scouter, it was only slightly more improved and had a reading limit of 2 million battle power. He was expecting Bulma to make an even more advanced scouter by the New Years. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. Raditz sensed for Piccolo''s Ki and flew toward him. Half an hour later, Raditz arrived in front of a meditating Piccolo. "Hey, Piccolo!" Raditz greeted. "Hum... Raditz? What do you want?" Piccolo slowly opened his eyes and stood up. "I plan to travel to Planet Yardrat, do you want to come along?" Raditz asked. "Interesting... Of course! Count me in!" Piccolo seemed to have thought the Planet Yardrat was a planet filled with strong people. He had gained a lot when Raditz brought him to train under King Kai, especially the Ki Amplifying Technique, Kaioken. "Good, Bulma is celebrating New Years on 31st December. Come join the celebration, we''re leaving after celebrating." Raditz said and left before Piccolo could even say another word. Raditz returned to Goku''s home at Mt. Paozu. Goku was already back and was being chided by Chichi. "Goku, I''m planning on flying to Planet Yardrat after celebrating New Years. Do you wanna come?" Raditz asked. "Yes! Of course I wanna come!" Goku didn''t even think about it and immediately yelped out. "Planet? It''s in space?" Chichi asked in shock. "Yes, it''s definitely in space." Raditz nodded. "That''s great! Oh! You should bring Gohan as well! He''ll be the first human traveling in space!!" Chichi said excitedly. She had already learned that Raditz was from space and could easily accept that he was able to travel in space. "Fine..." Raditz frowned, he was about to make some excuses, but after seeing the eagerness in Chichi''s eyes he gave up. "Great! I''ll cook up a really sumptuous meal for New Year''s celebration!" Chichi said happily. "Oh, about that, Bulma invited me to celebrate New Years at her home. You''re all welcome to come as well." Raditz hurriedly said lest Chichi ends up wasting her efforts. "Oh... I wanted to make the meals..." Chichi said sadly. "Why don''t you help out over at Bulma then?" Raditz suggested. "That''s a good idea! I have so many ideas for dishes to make. I''ll help Bulma plan out the menu!" Chichi clapped her hands. "Goku! What you say, you and I go for a spar?" Raditz invited Goku for a spar to improve his martial arts. For a normal martial artist, they would spend most of their time honing their moves alone and occasionally spar. But Raditz knows that it would a waste of time for him to do that instead, he planned to make the most of his Saiyan''s advantages. A Saiyan improves the most in battles, so battles he shall do! "Sure!" Goku couldn''t wait for the spar to begin and had already run out of the house. 16 Celebrating New Years 2 Weeks went by, Raditz would occasionally spar with Goku and Gohan. Sometimes he would do some gravity training. And sometimes, he would also fly up to the Lookout and learn some Namekian language from Mr. Popo. "Namekian language could always come in handy. Like if I need to make a wish with the Namekian Dragon Balls." Raditz thought positively. After getting his new scouter, Raditz had been curious about how much battle power a single Fruit of Tree of Might gave. After eating a single fruit, his battle power rose from 395,000 to 445,000. Raditz continued eating another 4 fruits and his battle power rose to 610,000. "I feel quite bloated..." Raditz noticed that his body wasn''t able to absorb all of the power contained in the fruit after eating so many of them. The more he ate, the less he gained. "The first three fruits gave me 50,000 each, but then I made quite some lost eating the last two fruits." Raditz analyzed. He needed some time to fully digest all the energy contained in the fruits before he could eat more without diminished returns. "But to think my battle power increased by over 200,000 just in a moment. This truly feels like doping." Raditz smiled. Because he knew these fruits were fruits for Gods to eat, there was no actual harm in eating them. "I got 4 more ripe fruits and 50 unripe left. After digesting the energy, I''ll try out and see if the unripe ones can still give me any energy. But geez, just how many fruits did Turles waste in order for him to gain over 400,000 battle power? With the diminishing returns, and considering how he was much weaker than I am now, his weaker foundation causes him to waste even more of the energy in the fruit... Did he eat like 30 of them? Such a waste." Raditz felt regretful that he came back late, if only he had come back before Turles had started eating the fruits, he would have several dozens of ripe fruit instead of the 9 he got. Goku and Gohan would also occasionally bring Raditz around Mt. Paozu for a tour and to enjoy nature. Goku was especially happy after getting his own Gravity Chamber, he would sometimes spar with Raditz and Gohan, sometimes do some gravity training and sometimes take Gohan to play around. Unlike in the anime, Icarus, the purple dragon appeared quite often around Goku''s home and would often play with Gohan and also bring him deep into the forest. "I''ve always thought dragons were extremely strong and powerful mythical creatures... To think there exists such weak dragons here in the Dragon Ball World. Or is it just a fake dragon and just some type of lizard that looks similar to a dragon?" Raditz wondered. Because Chichi wanted to help out with the celebration, the group decided to visit Bulma a day earlier.

Chichi exclaimed when they arrived at the doorsteps. Because they had flown over from the skies, Chichi had taken a good look and noticed that Capsule Corp was as big as a village. For such a big area in West City to be owned by a single family, one could imagine just how rich they were. "Did Chichi forgot she''s actually a princess? The Ox King is an actual king with a castle and his own land and endless wealth..." Raditz mocked Chichi in his mind. But maybe it couldn''t be helped, Goku and Gohan were two big eaters, each day they had to eat over 10 families'' worth of food. And Goku did not even have a job nor any income. If not for the money the Ox King had left them, they would probably be living in the wild hunting for their own food by now... Raditz imagined Goku''s family dressed in fur clothes like cavemen running in the mountains hunting giant dinosaurs for dinner. There were a great number of stray cats, dogs and even stray dinosaurs roaming freely within Capsule Corp''s premises since Gohan even brought Icarus with him, he and Icarus went to play with the stray animals jovially. Since they were guests, Goku and Raditz did not spar nor do any training while they stayed at Bulma''s home. Instead, Raditz enjoyed watching Chichi''s comical expressions which changed every once in awhile as she was shocked by almost everything. Most of all, she was so shocked by seeing the maid droids prepare all the food ingredients for tomorrow. They also did a great job cleaning the house, moving the chairs and tables and all kinds of chores. Bulma generously gifted Chichi a few maid droids, but for them living in Mt. Paozu, they had little electricity to spare and could not support the few maid droids'' battery recharging. Luckily, being rich means having practically anything, Bulma simply brought out an electricity generator capsule and gave it to Chichi. "Hm... Now Chichi will have a more relaxing life at home... I wonder if she''ll end up keeping a closer eye on Gohan''s studies..." Raditz had some useless thoughts. Raditz was glad to receive his ultra stretchable training clothes from Bulma. She also made a kids'' size for Gohan. At least now the two Saiyans will no longer end up naked after transforming into Great Apes. "Hum... I don''t remember such a big event happening in the original storyline... Oh right. They were all kinda dead at that time. And Goku was in Planet Yardrat at that time, so they probably didn''t feel like celebrating." Raditz thought because he could not recall such an event as celebrating New Years happening in the anime. The day passed and it was now the 31st December. Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, Chiatzu, Yajirobe, Oolong, Puaru, Master Roshi, Launch, and Turtle showed up at the celebration. But Bulma got quite a surprise, Piccolo also came. Raditz had forgotten to tell Bulma that he had invited Piccolo as well. And since everyone else had gotten along with Piccolo since their training at King Kai, only Bulma was shocked and scared silly by Piccolo''s appearance. "Happy New Years!!" Everyone said jovially before they dug into their plates of food. Only Piccolo drank a few beverages without eating any solid food. Launch had drunk a few too many cups of alcohol and started getting intimate with Tien Shinhan in public. Tien Shinhan''s face flushed from embarrassment and scurried away somewhere faraway with Launch chasing after him. Yamcha had also gotten drunk and started hitting on Bulma, which earned him a very loud slap to the face. Master Roshi also drunk, squeezed Bulma''s breasts and got smashed in the head by a chair. Krillin, Chiatzu, Puaru, and Oolong laughed at Yamcha and Master Roshi in schadenfreude. Raditz, Goku, Gohan, and Yajirobe had an eating contest. Maybe because he did not join their training at King Kai''s place, he had no idea just how bottomless the trio''s stomachs were. Yajirobe, with his bloated stomach, looked like an inflated balloon rolled away like a ball was obviously the first to withdraw from the eating competition. Gohan, due to his child physique, ended up being the 2nd to withdraw from the eating competition. Raditz and Goku were closely matched, neither could pull ahead with more than 2 plates ahead of the other. Sometimes Raditz would lead, sometimes Goku. This continued for a very long time, so long the audience was so shocked their eyes were popping out and their jaws gaped so wide that even a baseball would fit in their gaping mouth. In the end, Raditz raised the white flag. But not due to being too full, instead, he was feeling nauseous from eating so much and went to the side to drink soda. Goku, for some reason, maybe because he wasn''t feeling full yet, continued eating. 17 Set Off! Destination Planet Yardrat! The next day. "Set Off! Destination Planet Yardrat!" Raditz tapped the launch off button in his spaceship. The spaceship shot off and headed toward space. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. Bulma had been jealous and had tried to join their space travel. But Raditz sternly rejected her, saying she was way too weak to go somewhere so far away. Considering that it only takes 5 days to fly to Planet Namek from Earth with his spaceship, taking 3 months to reach Planet Yardrat was indeed very far away. Although the chances for meeting space pirates were quite low, Raditz did not want to babysit Bulma after remembering the scenes from the anime when Bulma had traveled to Planet Namek with Krillin and Gohan. 3 Months passed. Because there was limited space in the spaceship, there was no way to bring out a Gravity Chamber and everyone could only share the only Gravity Simulation Machine built-in on the spaceship. Because the four of them had very large discrepancies in their Ki levels, it was impossible to accommodate each other''s needs in gravity training. The group had therefore rarely used the Gravity Simulation Machine and mostly sparred with each other. Because no one wanted to end up accidentally destroying the spaceship and suffocate to death, the four of them all suppressed their Ki levels before they sparred. Raditz and Gohan reaped the greatest gains during these 3 months. Unlike Goku and Piccolo who had spent their whole lives practicing martial arts, Raditz had only just gotten in touch with martial art. Benefiting from his Saiyan physique, Raditz''s martial foundation had greatly improved, maybe his battle power did not increase by much. He had built a much stronger and better foundation, which will in return bring out greater growth in the future. Gohan was the same, he was still very young and because of Chichi, Goku had not had the chance to teach Gohan any martial arts until Raditz had appeared. Gohan was very hardworking, and he became even more hardworking and serious after being praised. Raditz and Goku had praised Gohan after they had seen a visible improvement in Gohan''s martial art skills. Maybe every child liked to get acknowledged and praised, ever since he first got praised, Gohan had worked much harder to improve his martial art skills and whenever he got praised again he would smile so radiantly and cutely as the 5 year old kid he is. Even Piccolo smiled after seeing Gohan train so earnestly. Somehow, Gohan was really good at getting liked by others, after spending time with this honest and silly kid, one couldn''t help but unconsciously turn friendlier toward Gohan. Goku had carelessly braved his heart and shot out ki blasts during their sparring sessions, only to earn the beating of both Piccolo and Raditz who were scared to death by Goku''s dumb actions. There were in the middle of nowhere out in the black dark space. If one of the ki blasts had landed badly and blown a hole in the spaceship, all the oxygen would have been sucked out into space and the four of them would have instantly suffocated to death. Gohan was too young and did not understand the severity, but both Raditz and Piccolo was cold sweating and almost had a heart attack when they saw the stupid Goku smile and shoot Ki blasts at them. Only after being berated by two very angry Raditz and Piccolo, did Goku finally remember not to shoot any more Ki blasts while they were in space. They were about to reach Planet Yardrat, when they suddenly come close enough to sense several large evil Ki energies fluctuation as they created chaos and mayhem on Planet Yardrat. "Such big Ki! And so dark and evil!" Goku exclaimed. "Big? Hmph, they don''t even hold a cup against Raditz." Piccolo snorted, he had already gotten used to Raditz being the strongest of their group. Although Piccolo was not the type to change the way he treats people based solely on their strength, Piccolo did treat Raditz much better than Goku. Maybe he still remembered Raditz had helped him pass King Kai''s trial. Whenever he stared at Goku it was not too hostile nor friendly, it was as if Goku owed him money. But atleast he did not treat Gohan, who was just a 5 year old kid the same as he treats Goku. Raditz did feel bad that the two of them did not become as close as they did in the original story. The smile he saw from Piccolo reminded him of how Piccolo used to smile at Gohan to show how proud he was at Gohan''s achievements. "One, two, three, four, five... One of them is much stronger than the rest, three of them are at a similar level and the last guy... is super weak." Raditz suddenly had a guess at who the group of five were. Soon, the spaceship approached Planet Yardrat''s atmosphere. They could hear loud explosions and see many white flashing lights. The group decided to get off directly and put away their spaceship, lest there was an accident and the spaceship gets ruined so they''ll end up stranded here. "Hahaha! Too weak! Too weak!" A voice shouted. "Where do you think you''re going? Unfortunately for you guys, I, Burter am the fastest in the universe!" A blue-skinned alien proclaimed proudly after flying past the escaping pink-skinned Yardratians and blocking their escape path. "Ugh! How did I forget this? That''s right, Goku only managed to get to Planet Yardrat from the exploding Planet Namek when he boarded the Ginyu spacepod because the Ginyu Force were planning to go to Planet Yardrat after they were done with their business in Planet Namek. Since in the story have changed and there is no Namek Saga, the Ginyu Force never needed to go to Planet Namek had had immediately arrived here just now. Damnit! If I were a bit slower, the Yardratians might be completely exterminated!" Raditz held his forehead with his right hand as he remembered the Ginyu Force was originally going to Planet Yardrat. Raditz''s group''s appearance startled both sides, although the Yardratians were incapable of fighting back and was only trying their best to escape, both sides stopped their actions and stared at the newcomers. "Captain, their battle power is only 5,000. They must be tourists." The red-skinned alien, Jeice reported after scanning the Raditz''s group. "What?! A Namekian and Saiyans?" Jeice yelled in surprise once Raditz''s group flew closer and both sides could finally examine each other. He easily identified Piccolo with his two antennae and green skin as a Namekian. Both Raditz and Gohan had their brown Saiyan tails intact and were quickly identified as Saiyans. The group composition had surprised Jeice, because both the Saiyans and Ginyu Force worked for Frieza and it was impossible for Frieza''s men to be with a Namekian. "This long-haired monkey... I know you! You''re Raditz. Didn''t Vegeta report you dead?" Captain Ginyu looked at the group in amusement. "This is an unexpected meeting." Raditz frowned. He had planned to avoid getting involved with Frieza as much as possible while he was weak. After all, even with the Dragon Balls, if Frieza destroyed Earth or killed Piccolo, then the Dragon Balls will turn useless. Raditz was not afraid of Frieza''s men since he himself had gotten a lot stronger. What he was afraid of was catching Frieza''s attention. In a game, it was fun to simply rush right into a boss a thousand times over. But in real life, a real game over was quite permanent. Worst of all, he knew that Frieza could listen in on their scouter''s conversations. As such, since Captain Ginyu had already announced his name, he would more or less have caught Frieza''s attention. 18 The Ginyu Force Suddenly, the Ginyu Force gathered together and gave a quick glance at each other as if to signal something. Then, they jumped forward and stood lined up horizontally. "Gohan, get behind me!" Goku raised his guard upon seeing the Ginyu Force''s suspicious movement. Piccolo didn''t say anything but had a serious look while he also raised his guard against anything unexpected. "Uh... Don''t tell me they are going to..." Raditz had a speechless expression upon seeing the Ginyu Force''s actions. "Recoome!" The human-looking alien shouted and did a side lunge to the left and raised his left fist diagonally up to his left side "Burter!" The blue-skinned alien did exactly the same, except he did a side lunge to the right and raised his right fist diagonally up to his right side. "Jeice!" The red-skinned alien went down on his left knee and raised his arms up like an upside-down triangle and bent his wrist down outward.

A short green-skinned alien had another pair of big eyes on the sides of his head did the same as Jeice but went down on his right knee instead. "Ginyu!" The purple-skinned alien turned his back to Raditz and the others, then bent down his waist, sticking his butt up and looked at Raditz''s group from between his legs. "Together, we are..." The Ginyu Force said together and jumped around and changed their poses. "The Ginyu Force!" Once again they shouted out together. "..." Raditz''s group stared at the ridiculous poses with dumbstruck faces. Raditz imagined a tumbleweed tumble past the Ginyu Force. "Wow! That was so cool!" Gohan shouted! "... Ah! Right, no wonder his poses as the Great Saiyaman was so ridiculous. It seems he has the same taste as these fools..." Raditz inwardly mocked Gohan''s future self. "Raditz. Even though you managed to improve yourself from your weak 1,500 battle power to 5,000. Do you think you can get away after betraying Frieza?" Ginyu said imposingly. "..." Raditz was speechless. "What? Now you''re scared? It''s too late to regret." Jeice shouted excitedly and thought Raditz was so scared he didn''t dare to even speak anymore. Goku, Gohan, and Piccolo watched from the side as if they were watching a comedy show with smiles. "You guys! Don''t think we''ll let you go after we''ve taken care of Raditz! You better wipe away your smug smiles! We''ll take good care of you after we''re done with Raditz. And by good care, I don''t mean by patting your back and massaging your shoulders. We''re gonna hurt you!" Jeice yelled seemingly ticked from their smug smiles. "I''ll take Raditz. There are only 3 left, you can play a game of Rock paper scissors and decide who gets left out." Captain Ginyu decided. Since the Ginyu Force was composed of 5 men, and Raditz''s group was only four. One man would be left out of the fight since they had decided to fight one on one. "Rock paper scissors! Rock paper scissors!" The Ginyu Force started playing a game of rock paper scissors to decide who gets left out of the battles. "Damn you! Guldo you cheated with your superpower!" Jeice yelled in injustice after losing. "That''s true, I saw you change from rock to paper all of a sudden." Burter said. "Ah! Damn it! Fine I''m out." Guldo said in disappointment. Although he could stop time by holding his breath. But he still needed to see what hand the other''s had decided before he could stop time and change his own hand. "Well, the superpowers in the Dragon Ball World are quite a mystery to me. I guess it''s good that Guldo is out. Otherwise, the other guys might not be able to defend themselves when they wake up to see a hole in their chest once Guldo stops time." Raditz thought. He wasn''t sure if he could resist Guldo''s superpowers with his stronger power and had planned to sneak attack and kill Guldo first but ended up not needing to. "I''ll take the Saiyan runt!" Jeice said. He liked to play dirty and bully others, Gohan who was just a small kid fit his taste. "I want that guy." Recoome pointed at Goku. "Then I''ll take the Namekian." Burter said. After they had decided who they wanted to fight, they went through another round of rock paper scissors to decide who goes first. "Alright! I go first!" Recoome raised his fist and pumped. "Hehehe! Alright! Let''s fight!" Goku flew forward to an empty clearing. "A fight? You''re just a maggot with 5,000 battle power." Recoome sneered. "Is that so?" Goku had a playful smile. "I''ll wipe your smile!" Recoome got ticked from Goku''s smile and rushed forward and sent a punch to Goku''s stomach. Clap! Goku grabbed Recoome''s fist effortlessly. "Is that all you''ve got?" Goku asked with a wide smile. "Goku sure likes to play. But it does look fun to play like that." Raditz thought. The scouter could not easily pick up the sharp spikes in Goku''s Ki that happens in a split-second. But Raditz, Piccolo and Gohan could sense Ki and had sharp senses could easily feel the spikes in Goku''s Ki.Goku''s base battle power was much lower than Recoomes. It was obvious that Goku had activated Kaioken in short bursts. "I guess he won''t gain anything from this battle..." Raditz shook his head. Goku continued to playfully fight Recoome. Punching him in the nose and giving him a nosebleed. Then provoking Recoome to hit him. "How''s it possible?! That maggot''s only got a mere 5,000 battle power!!" Jeice scanned Goku''s battle power once again and yelped in shock after seeing Goku toying with Recoome. "Idiots! Recoome''s battle power is 65,000. It''s impossible for that guy to only have a battle power of 5,000. He must be the type of fighter capable of bumping up their battle power at will. I estimate his battle power is around 80,000." Captain Ginyu said. "What?! How is it possible?" Jeice was shocked. "Nothing is impossible, he is probably a naturally gifted fighter due to a mutation, like us. I''m already regretting picking Raditz. This guy must be the leader of their group." Ginyu said. "But only you can handle him, Captain. So you still get to fight with him later." Jeice said. "Hahaha! That''s true." Captain Ginyu laughed. The fight ended soon. Goku was slightly sweaty from activating Kaioken for so long and many times. While Recoome was a complete mess, his spacesuit was destroyed, his body and face were mixed with blood, grease, and dirt. Seeing the outcome of Recoome and after hearing their Captain''s explanation, none of the other Ginyu members dared to challenge Goku. "It''s my turn now." Piccolo had a competitive face as he stepped forward. Unlike Goku, he did not keep his Ki suppressed to a low level and spiked it up for a split-second when he fought. Piccolo simply released his Ki. Beep! Beep! Beep! The scouters on Ginyu Force repeatedly beeped after noticing the surging Ki. "What! His battle power is rising! 10,000! 15,000! 20,000! 30,000!" Jeice yelled out. "Huh? Ah... How did I forget. His most effective training method is meditation. In a cramped space like my spaceship. He would gain the most." Raditz suddenly understood. Piccolo''s body was weaker than Saiyan''s bodies, and he also trained much slower in gravity training. But Piccolo was very talented in training his Ki by meditation. If not for Goku receiving a Zenkai back on Earth, Goku''s battle power would be around 20,000 after so long. Of course, if Goku had been able to efficiently train in gravity during these 3 months they traveled in space, he would have a much higher battle power even without receiving that Zenkai. 20 Close Call Just as Raditz felt his soul being ripped from his body, a white light wrapped around him he suddenly disappeared from his position. A few meters away, the air split apart and Raditz suddenly appeared on that spot. "W-what happened? No, isn''t this teleportation?" Raditz mumbled in shock. "Argh!" Captain Ginyu coughed a mouthful of blood, the backlash from failing the body change hit him hard. Not to mention, he purposely severely hurt himself before he activated the body change. "Die!" This time, Raditz did not give Captain Ginyu another chance to activate his body change ability. With his 10x Kaioken still activated, Raditz appeared in front of Captain Ginyu before he even had the time to react. Raditz sent a punch to Captain Ginyu''s head, a resounding explosion echoed. The force contained in that punch exploded Captain Ginyu''s head like a watermelon exploding, white and red matter exploded in every direction. Goku, Piccolo, and Gohan was confused by the sudden turn of event. But seeing how frantic Raditz had been upon seeing that yellow light shot out from Captain Ginyu and after being teleported away, he had heaved a sigh in relief, they could conclude that the yellow light was very dangerous even for someone as strong as Raditz.

A pink-skinned Yardratian a small distance away suddenly coughed out blood and fell on his knees. "Ah! You''re the one who helped me out just now? You can teleport me from a distance?" Raditz suddenly realized how he survived the earlier ordeal. The Yardratians was skilled in Spirit Control and could use this ability to heal and even teleport. He knew of Instant Transmission that was often used by Goku in the anime, but Goku always needed to be in contact with another person if he wanted to bring him with him in teleporting. Raditz had never expected the Yardratians to be so skilled to even be able to teleport himself away without touching him. Although the Yardratian seemed to have been hit by a backlash from doing such an action. "Gimu!" Another Yardratian appeared beside the kneeling and put his hand on the injured Yardratian. A weak light shone on Gimu, before he was healed. "C-Captain!" Jeice, Guldo, and Recoome were shocked by seeing their Captain suddenly die. "R-Raditz! You can''t kill us! Frieza will avenge us if you dare!!" Jeice yelled in panic. "Are you dumb? Ginyu is already dead, do you think killing another would make any difference?" Raditz sneered and appeared before Jeice and chopped his head off with a knife-hand. Guldo was scared out of his wits, he quickly held his breath to stop time and ran as far as he could before he ran out of breath and the time resumed. "Guldo you bastard!" Recoome was heavily injured and could not run on his own. He cursed Guldo for ditching him. Guldo was out of breath and couldn''t be bothered to waste his breath on speaking, he simply turned his head to look at Raditz before continuing running again. "Die!" Piccolo sent a kick to Recoome''s neck, breaking it. "Piccolo! He was already incapacitated!" Goku shouted angrily. Raditz chased after Guldo. Each time he was about to hit Guldo, Guldo would hold is breath and avoid the attack. This continued for awhile until Guldo''s face turned blue from asphyxiation. Guldo had run out of breath and could only mouth the words "NO!" as he saw Raditz''s fist land on his head. Raditz''s fist met Guldo''s pale face and like watermelon, Guldo''s head exploded. Except for the Yardratians in the surrounding who had already experienced Guldo''s superpower to stop time. Piccolo, Goku, and Gohan was shocked by Guldo''s ability to dodge Raditz''s attacks again and again. They had even thought Guldo could teleport. But they soon understood his ability''s restriction after seeing him asphyxiation from holding his breath. Raditz quickly looked for their remaining scouters and destroyed them in case Frieza was able to listen in on them. "Saviors, thank you for saving our planet." The surrounding Yardratians gathered together and thanked Raditz''s group. "Likewise, if not for your help in teleporting me away, I would not know what would have happened..." Raditz looked at Gimu and thanked him. "Sigh... I, just what is going on with me? First I foolishly rushed in and fought a life and death battle with Turles. And now I just jeopardized my life for..." Raditz mumbled in fear upon remembering his earlier actions. "Savior, it looks like your spirit is in disharmony. Luckily we Yardratians are skilled in Spirit Control and are willing to help you solve the disharmony between your body and spirit." A wizened Yardratian stepped forward and offered. "Disharmony of my body and spirit...? Is this caused by my transmigration into Raditz body?" Raditz pondered. The elderly Yardratian, Souma invited Raditz''s group to their city and gave them a house to live in. Raditz followed Souma to fix his problem while the rest of the group started chatting with the surrounding Yardratians. "The fleshly body is the vessel for the spirit, it also gives birth to many emotions to the spirit. The spirit by itself is emotionless and nonfeeling, the body nurtures the spirit and guides its growth..." Souma started explaining. "The disharmony is caused by your spirit being shackled and restrained by your body. Your fleshly body is dominant and in control, while your spirit is enslaved by the desires of your body." Souma said. "...What?" Raditz had a confused look. He didn''t even know what this elderly figure was talking about. Souma explained that by following the body''s desires will infuse his spirit with impurities and weaken his control. It''s like a lazy man will continue becoming even more lazy and procrastinate even more. There was once a story of a man who saved an elderly man. The elderly man thanked the man and had his three grandsons stay with the man and obey all his orders for 20 years to repay him. The three grandsons were young, healthy and robust men filled with intelligence and vigor. The man''s store was on the verge of bankruptcy, with the help of the three grandsons managing the store, the store started prospering and expanding. In the first year, the man would help out in his store, the 2nd year, the man would occasionally help out when the store was busy. By the 10th year, the man stopped going to his store. When he needed something, he simply ordered the grandsons. The three grandsons did all the house chores, cleaning the house, washing the clothes, cooking his meals and also completely managing his store. All the man did was go around the town and play or laze around at home. By the 20th year, the man no longer knew how to live and was completely dependent on the three grandsons. But, once they finished staying for 20 years, they simply packed their belongings, bowed and bid farewell and left the man all alone. The man''s store was flourishing, but without the three grandsons managing it, in just a year, the man was bankrupt and living on the streets. Yet the man did not go look for a job to fill his stomach. The man simply laid on the ground waiting to be fed... Waiting until he starved to death. According to Souma, Raditz''s spirit was filled with great amounts of impurities which led to him being enslaved to his body''s desires. To regain control over his body and no longer be controlled by it, Raditz needed to purge the impurities in his spirit which had seeped in over the many years he had let his body rein him. "What the... I''ve only been in this world for 2 years... Don''t tell me the problem lays with the old Raditz''s soul that I''ve merged with? Or is the merging that caused the problem? But according to the old man, it should be because the Old Raditz''s soul has been seeped with these impurities after indulging in his body''s desires. Well, it is true that he''s a big bully that enjoys bullying and slaughtering the weak. So by merging with Raditz''s soul, I have not inherited all those impurities..." Raditz had a wry smile as he hypothesized. "Worry not, young man. Our race is skilled in Spirit Control and has many techniques fitting to purge these impurities and temper your spirit." The elderly Yardratian smiled and said. 21 Training On Planet Yardra Although a large part of the planet''s surface was badly damaged, the causality was less than Raditz''s group had expected. In fact, even though many Yardratians were badly hurt or even killed by the Ginyu Force. The truth was that most of them were clones, so only about a dozen Yardratians had died as opposed to the thousands the group had thought. Elder Souma taught Raditz their techniques to purge the impurities in one''s spirit. And according to Elder Souma, Goku and Piccolo did not have many impurities in their spirit, and they had tempered their spirits quite well already. Gohan did not even have the slightest impurity in his spirit but he had not started tempering his spirit. Elder Souma personally taught the three their special meditation technique to temper their spirit. Raditz not only had plenty of impurities in his spirit, but he also had never tempered his spirit. But first things first, he had to purge the impurities to some degree before he should start tempering his spirit. The only good thing was that Raditz''s spirit was much bigger and stronger than other''s, which Raditz realized probably had to do with him fusing with the old Raditz''s soul. Elder Souma presumed Raditz had a mutated soul, a stronger and bigger spirit had a much higher starting point. Although he was riddled with trouble right now, once he managed to purge the impurities, Raditz''s spirit would gain much more and much faster while doing the same amount of spirit training. Thankfully, Elder Souma was one of the best in Spirit Control. Because Raditz had never trained his spirit, for him to purge the impurities on his own was very challenging for him. Elder Souma might not be able to fully purge all the impurities, but when there are so many impurities, he is able to at least scrape off the impurities on the surface. For one month, Raditz had to endure the pain from having his spirit stabbed by thousands of needles and his impurities extracted from his spirit. The pain was nothing like physical pain which Raditz had gradually gotten more used to, especially after his body almost broke apart from his fight with Turles. The pain Raditz felt was directly from his mind and spirit. It was like his brain was stabbed repeatedly in thousands of spots every single time. It was like his soul was being stabbed and pulled apart. Raditz was screaming from the top of his lungs every single day. If other''s heard his scream, they would have thought Elder Souma was torturing Raditz. But Elder Souma seemed to have expected this and had brought Raditz to stay in an isolated room. After that one month, Elder Souma had removed roughly 50% of all the impurities, but it only meant that the fewer impurities one had, the harder it was to remove the remaining impurities. But the remaining 50% impurities was no longer possible to be removed with Elder Souma''s help, and only Raditz himself could slowly purge the remaining impurities. After one torturous month, Raditz was finally relieved that he no longer needed to endure that soul-rending pain. Because, although Elder Souma had taught Raditz how to purge impurities so as to have Raditz quicker learn the technique after Souma let him experience it. But in order to actually use this technique, Raditz needed to temper his spirit until he had a certain level of control over his spirit. The basic to tempering one''s spirit was to meditate in order to calm one''s mind and spirit to achieve harmony. Naturally, those with fewer impurities in their spirit was able to achieve harmony much quicker. Once one achieved harmony in mind and spirit, one can generate an intangible will like cloth that is used to grind and hone the spirit carefully. If careless, instead of tempering one''s spirit, it can get damaged from grinding too hard like a cloth getting ripped into pieces. Thus, meditation was a slow and long process that required plenty of patience. Luckily, the Yardratians were weak and only good at one thing, and that one thing was Spirit Control, their spirit tempering techniques were of a much higher level than Earth''s. By spending the same amount of time to temper their spirit, their gains were more than threefold more. Thankfully, after having half of his impurities removed, Raditz was able to achieve harmony of mind and spirit and slowly generate his own will into a cloth. And because his spirit was much bigger and stronger, not only could he fold out the will cloth to hone a larger area of his spirit at the same time, he could also grind harder since it was much stronger. Thus, spending the same amount of time tempering his spirit, Raditz was finally able to experience what talent means. Piccolo had incredible willpower and patience, maybe due to the majority of his training consisting of meditation to improve his Ki. Piccolo was the first to reach the qualified level in spirit to learn Instant Transmission. Although Piccolo was able to make clones and gigantify himself, after learning Yardratian''s clone and gigantification techniques, his own clone, and gigantification techniques had improved greatly. Goku had a great foundation as well, all thanks to Kami''s teachings since Goku was a kid. After spending 6 months tempering his spirit, Goku was finally qualified to learn Instant Transmission. Maybe because it was not a combat-related skill, it took Goku 6 months to barely learn it. Gohan was earnestly tempering his spirit, under Raditz''s advice, Gohan also took some time to train in the Gravity Chamber to fully take advantage of his Saiyan blood.

Raditz had fully experienced his advantage of having a much bigger and stronger spirit. After spending 6 months tempering his spirit, his gains were equal to 10 times that of Earth''s normal training. That is to say, the 6 months Raditz spent tempering his spirit was equal to 60 months of normal training which was equal to 5 years of training. After the group had stayed for 7 months, Raditz was also qualified to learn Instant Transmission. Maybe because of his spirit being bigger and stronger, or maybe because Raditz had a solid learning foundation from being a college student before transmigrating to the Dragon Ball World. It only took him 2 months to learn Instant Transmission. Raditz also tried to learn Healing, Clone, and Gigantification. But Healing was a much more advanced technique that even Piccolo did not manage to learn after trying to learn it for 6 months. Raditz spent 3 months learning Clone and Gigantification and decided to leave the Healing for another time. The group had stayed on Planet Yardrat for a whole year now and was getting weary of the life here. Of course, they did not forget to celebrate little Gohan''s 6th year birthday. It was now Age 764, March. The group wanted to teleport to Earth in order to save the 3 months traveling time by spaceship. But they were unable to sense anyone''s Ki from Earth due to the long distance. Raditz then proposed to teleport to King Kai, and then teleport back to Earth. Because King Kai''s planet was located in the Other World, the distance was non-existent, it was simply located in a different dimension. Thus the group was able to sense King Kai''s Ki and teleport to him, and then teleport to Earth. Raditz remembered how Gohan''s lack of real battle experience had him directly challenge Jeice and would have ended up dead if he was alone. But neither he nor Goku had the heart to be cruel to a 6 year old kid. Thus, Raditz decided to have Piccolo train Gohan. It was also a chance for the two of them to get close to each other like in the original storyline. Piccolo left for the mountains to go back to his own training. Raditz followed Goku and Gohan back to their home. Chichi welcomed everyone warmly and immediately questioned them about their trip. They brought some Yardratian clothes, food and other souvenirs for Chichi and talked about their trip in space. Though they left out about Gohan being badly hurt by Jeice, afraid Chichi would go crazy. They also told Chichi about the Yardratian''s culture, technologies, and knowledge they had experienced. Of course, they left out that they spent the majority of their time there training. After spending a few days at home, Raditz told Goku about his plan to let Piccolo train Gohan. It might be some distance away from their home to Piccolo, but for those who could fly, it was a negligible distance. And for them who had learned Instant Transmission, it was merely a moment away. Goku really liked Piccolo and agreed to let him train Gohan, he felt Piccolo was very smart and mature and suitable to teach Gohan. They grabbed Gohan and after locking on to Piccolo''s Ki, they teleported over to him. Piccolo wasn''t very agreeable, but after Gohan had also personally persuaded him, he reluctantly agreed to train Gohan. "Brat, don''t regret your decision. Once the training starts, there''s no backing out." Piccolo said seriously to Gohan. "Umu, uncle Piccolo, don''t worry! I''ll train hard!" Gohan nodded seriously. Raditz decided to stay over and spar with Piccolo, and also to avoid an angry Chichi once she learns that Gohan will be staying away to train in martial arts. Goku waved goodbye and teleported back home and got an earful from Chichi. Yet he never understood Raditz had purposefully avoided the crossfire by not coming back home for some time. 22 Friezas Attention One of the reasons Raditz had stayed over and sparred with Piccolo, was because he was interested in Piccolo''s Special Beam Cannon. After having tempered his spirit, Raditz''s mind was clearer, his sense sharper and his Ki Control had vastly increased and he felt the Kamehameha was too normal and only contained a large concentration of energy and had a strong impetus. While Piccolo''s Special Beam Cannon had a stronger penetrative force and was more useful in breaking the defense when fought against someone stronger. Although Raditz had tempered his spirit by quite a lot, it simply gave him a better foundation to meditate in order to increase his Ki. Tempering the spirit did not increase his Ki, but a strong spirit was required in order to meditate and increase his Ki volume. Meditation could be done in many ways, and each way had different effects and uses, it could be used to do image training, it was similar to doing shadow boxing. But by doing image training, one did not need to move one''s body at all. It was also possible to link up mentally with someone else and do mental combat with their full power instead of holding back and sparring in the real world. There are no negative effects of dying in mental combat and is a great way to fight without holding back. Meditation could also be done to calm one''s emotions and get rid of distracting thoughts before a battle. It could also be used in order to inspect the inside of one''s body and find hidden injuries. Although Ki does not exactly have a healing effect, a large amount of non-destructive Ki applied to a certain part of the body does speed up the body''s natural healing for that area. Thus, one can get rid of old and hidden injuries this way. There are many ways to meditate in order to increase Ki. One way is to eat well and stay healthy so that each cell of one''s body will generate as much cell energy as possible, then by meditating, one can compress their Ki and have it cycle through the whole body, drawing in the cell energy in each and every cell in one''s body to feed their Ki and propagate their Ki. Large amounts of non-destructive Ki have a positive effect on one''s body, so by letting the compressed Ki cycle through one''s body, it will also increase the cell energy generation in one''s body. It''s also one of the reasons why Saiyans improve their Ki levels so fast, they have strong physiques and have naturally talented bodies that are fit to train one''s body, especially through Gravity Training. In fact, if one''s body is strong enough, even without doing any meditation, one''s body will generate enough cell energy that it will automatically transform into Ki. Another way to increase Ki is to rotate one''s Ki to compress and create a Ki vortex with a strong suction force that will absorb the spiritual energy generated by one''s spirit. The spiritual energy will then be assimilated into the Ki vortex and increase the Ki volume. But this method required the Ki vortex to be very stable in order to compress the intangible spiritual energy and not let it disperse. The bottom of the Ki vortex will compress the intangible spiritual energy and feed it to the Ki which will then digest the spiritual energy and grow bigger. Piccolo''s meditation was to cycle through his Ki throughout every part of his body and then rotate it in the center of his body to create a Ki vortex. Although it was more complex and harder to cycle his Ki this way, he would in return increase his Ki much faster. Raditz had shamelessly copied Piccolo''s decade worth of self-improved Ki Meditation technique and made it his primary Ki Meditation technique. But because of his Saiyan physique, he was less inclined to start meditating to increase his Ki, when I still had much space for improving his body and generate more cell energy. Of course, Piccolo''s meditation technique was very complex and required great Ki control. It also trained one''s Ki control even further the more one trained in this Ki Meditation technique, because one could infinitely compress their Ki more and more, but at the same time, it requires more Ki control to compress the vast amount of Ki while still keeping to cycle through one''s body. ...

"That Raditz you reported dead is actually still alive." Frieza sat on his throne and said. Nappa and Vegeta were on their knees, paying their respect to Frieza. "W-what? How can that be?" Nappa was shocked. "That bastard! He tricked us!" Vegeta said angrily. "Oh, an interesting fact... Is that Raditz''s battle power is 620,000." Frieza looked at Vegeta and Nappa''s expression in interest. "I-impossible! How can Raditz be that strong? Him? That weak radish boy! How is it possible!!" Vegeta could not accept that a mere Mid Class Warrior could possibly surpass him, a Super Elite Class Warrior. Not to mention, had surpassed by far more than simply a little. Even after years of fighting, Vegeta''s battle power was approaching 20,000. "Lord Frieza, we must punish that traitor!" Vegeta said sinisterly. He could not allow another Saiyan to surpass his strength. He planned to borrow Frieza''s power to kill Raditz. Nappa opened his mouth, but no words came out. He had a conflicted expression. Ever since he found out that Frieza had exterminated his race, he no longer held any good feelings for Frieza. In fact, after hearing that Raditz battle power had reached 620,000. He was indeed shocked, but also pleasantly surprised. Maybe they had a shot at getting revenge for their race. Although Raditz had defected, considering that they were serving Frieza, and having been teammates for years. Nappa could still accept Raditz''s actions. But being loyal to the Saiyan Prince, he had mixed feelings about Vegeta''s attitude. After reviewing the report, Vegeta believed the Saiyan kid to not be Raditz''s child, but instead Kakarot''s. After all, it hadn''t been long since Raditz defected. There was no way he could have gotten a kid 4-5 years old that fast. That means among the 3 men traveling with Raditz, except for the Namekian, the last man had to be Kakarot. "We don''t know where that traitor is, but since they went to Planet Yardrat, we should send some scouts and look for clues to their whereabouts. Maybe we can find where they went or if they have stayed in Planet Yardrat." Dodoria suggested. "No, there''s no need. It''s impossible for him to leave any clues. We simply need to launch a slow attack at Planet Namek. Since Raditz''s new group has a Namekian. I''m sure that Namekian cannot ignore his own people dying. Even if Raditz does not come, that Namekian is sure to come to Planet Namek. Once we capture him, we simply need to get that Namekian to spit out Raditz''s location." Vegeta proposed his plan. He did not believe they would go back to Earth after leaving that planet. And being cold-blooded himself, he did not believe Kakarot nor Raditz would give a damn about the Earthlings. "My! Vegeta, what a good plan. We''ll go with that." Frieza smiled. He also wanted to get rid of Raditz, the abnormal Saiyan which had surpassed the limit of Saiyans. Maybe Raditz would one day become a Super Saiyan which Frieza was wary of. Naturally, he would be more than happy to nip the buds before they bloom. 23 Shenron Appears Piccolo had been interested in his own race after hearing the Ginyu Force calling him a Namekian. Raditz told what he knew about the Namekians and his home planet, Planet Namek for Piccolo. Piccolo was shocked, but after recovering he was interested in visiting his home planet. They had spaceships and also learned Instant Transmission. There was no reason for them not to visit Planet Namek. The duo agreed to visit Planet Namek sometime in the future, after all, they had just came back from Planet Yardrat. Raditz remembered his promise to Bulma to bring her along next time they traveled to somewhere safe. Raditz had gone to visit Dr. Brief to see if he had improved the Gravity Chamber to beyond 300x gravity. Raditz had fully digested the energy contained in the Fruit of Tree of Might. Although he had not had much of an increase in his battle power because he had spent last year tempering his spirit and learning Spirit Control techniques. But he planned to seriously train his body now and eat more Fruits of Tree of Might. He believed 200x gravity was his limit for now, but not for long. If Dr. Brief had not improved the Gravity Chamber yet, it was a good time for him to begin. Other than that, Raditz also wanted to borrow the dragon radar. It''s been more than a year since Krillin and Gohan had wished for the forest to be restored. Just as Raditz got his hands on the dragon radar, the sky suddenly darkened and lighting struck a certain place. "F*ck! Who''s using my Dragon Balls!!" Raditz rapidly flew high up into the sky and saw a tiny green snake looking figure appear in the distance with numerous lightning striking in it''s surrounding. Raditz sensed plenty of Ki around Shenron, and also one whose Ki was much bigger. He quickly locked onto that Ki and teleported over. ...

But just as he was about to finish his sentence, Raditz appeared next to him and gave him a hard kick, sending him flying into a small hill which then exploded into many stone fragments. "Like hell you are!" Raditz cursed. He had waited for so long, yet another fool was trying to steal his wish for another year. "Who are you!?" A soldier asked. All the alien soldiers around wore alien armored suits with helms covering their faces. A few soldiers even had wings growing on their backs. "Shenron, I wish for Eternal Youth and a forever healthy body so I''ll never get sick!" Raditz ignored the dumbfounded soldiers and neither did he answer their questions. Although he had many wishes he could choose between, he did not have time to ponder on other wishes when there were so many soldiers who could jump the gun and steal his wish. Raditz had purposefully asked for a forever healthy body because he knew Goku would contract a heart disease, and he was worried it was genetic. Although he had wanted to wish for Goku to also have a forever healthy body, he did not want to end up reciting a wish too long only for one of the many soldiers here to steal his wish. But it was still a few years until then, and Raditz had plenty of time to wish Goku a healthy body. "That is simple." Shenron''s red eyes shone brightly for a moment. "Your wish has been granted. Farewell." Shenron said before he turned into yellow light and split into 7 golden balls which flew away each in their own direction. "Ah?! Damn bastard! How dare you steal Lord Slug''s wish!" The soldiers had just understood the situation and started surrounding Raditz. "Capture him!" The soldiers jumped on Raditz. "I feel slightly more energetic, but that''s all. I guess I''m still in my prime." Raditz muttered as he inspected his body that barely had any change. "Bastard! You''ll regret stealing my wish!!" The hooded man had crawled out from the pile of rocks and stones of the former hill. "Lord Slug!" The soldiers'' morale grew upon seeing Lord Slug return. "Slug? Ah, that''s right after Turles comes Slug. For him to come around this time is reasonable since he needs to use the Dragon Balls to regain his youth." Raditz muttered. This was due to Gohan and Krillin having used the Dragon Balls last year. As such it was only reasonable for Slug to come around this time when the Dragon Balls had already reset. Lord Slug is a Super Namekian, which had great potential and battle power no less than a Super Saiyan. Although much training and effort are required to reach such a level. Raditz had no idea if Lord Slug had reached the level of a normal Super Saiyan, which is to say about 150 million in battle power. But he was incredibly lucky to have stopped Lord Slug from wishing back his youth. Having lived for 500 years, Lord Slug was close to dying from old age, his body was incredibly fragile and had none of his powers from his prime. That was why a simple kick from Raditz had caused him to cough blood and gotten even weaker. Maybe because Lord Slug was so angry that he lost his mind. Because he was so close to regaining his youth, only to have it stolen from him, that he did not run away from Raditz. "Lucky!" Raditz had a smile upon seeing the situation. Raditz sure did not want to meet a boss when level 1. Although he was stronger than a so-called level 1, it still would not feel good to fight someone that might have around 150 million battle power. Although whistling at a certain frequency was Lord Slug''s Achilles heel, Raditz had never tried it before and would rather not place his life onto luck. Raditz shot out numerous Ki Blasts at Lord Slug''s soldiers. The thunderous explosions swallowed over half of the soldiers. When the dust settled, there were little blood on the battlefield, most of the blood had been vaporized by the Ki Blasts'' explosions. What remained were numerous body parts and pieces scattered around. "Protect Lord Slug!" The soldiers stayed loyal and formed a defensive formation around Lord Slug and tried to bring him back to their spaceship. The reason all his soldiers were loyal was simple, they were all birthed by him. Only now did Lord Slug recover, he quickly moved with his loyal soldiers toward his spaceship in fear. Raditz simply smiled and sent a few more Ki Blasts as a farewell gift. Thunderous roars swallowed up the terrain and took the soldiers'' life. Finally, only Lord Slug was left. "No! Don''t kill me! We don''t have any grudges!!" Lord Slug raised his hand in surrender. He didn''t even know why he was so unlucky to suddenly meet a stranger that he had never ever meet before wanted him dead. "No, we don''t. But you''re too evil to remain alive." Raditz did not accept Lord Slug''s surrender. Rather than keeping a ticking bomb, he preferred them dead. Aiming his palm at Lord Slug, a fist-sized Ki ball appeared. With a light push, the Ki ball expanded into a human-size and swallowed up Lord Slug completely. There was no explosion nor thunderous roars. Once the Ki ball disappeared, Lord Slug had been reduced into dust that fell down into a small pile where he had stood. "It''s a pity..." Raditz shook his head. Lord Slug was a Super Namekian, If he wasn''t completely evil, Raditz would have been interested in forcing him to fuse with Piccolo. Of course, Piccolo would be the base. But he was afraid the pure evil would badly affect Piccolo and decided not to let Lord Slug fuse with Piccolo. Raditz heaved a sigh in relief. A huge ordeal had turned into a tiny problem nipped in the bud. "Alright, time to train hard!" Raditz was motivated to become strong so he no longer needs to fear his future enemies. To be honest, ever since Frieza notice him, Raditz had started to feel an urgency to get stronger. Frieza''s gaze was like a Damocles sword hanging above his head. To Frieza, Raditz was just a bug that he could squeeze to death, if Frieza really came to look for him he would not even have the strength to resist him. 24 Going To Space Again Raditz ate the last 4 ripe Fruits of Tree of Might, gaining an additional 200,000 battle power. Seeing that he still had room for more, he ate 10 unripe ones and gained another 50,000 battle power. Although Raditz had spent most of his time tempering his spirit. Tempering his spirit was also an important part of martial arts training which Raditz had neglected in the past. Now that he had tempered his spirit, his martial art foundation was finally complete. Tempering his spirit did not increase Raditz''s power by much, but it did greatly reinforce his foundation so that his future training would bring him greater gains. with the addition of the Fruits of Tree of Might, his battle power had finally reached 1,000,000. "Only 40 unripe fruits left. It''s time I planted the Seed of Tree of Might." Raditz really could not stop eating these delicious fruits that were like legal doping. Raditz had spent a week sparring with Piccolo and "learned" his Special Beam Cannon. Though he had learned it, he still needed more practice to use it in battle. Unlike the Kamehameha that was simple to imitate after seeing it once, it was important to have a high level of Ki Control to compress the Ki and spin it like a drill. Once the it''s spiral path deviates, it will quickly lose its penetrative force and be no better than a normal Ki Beam if not worse by having its energy disperse to its sides before it reaches its target. The fundamental part of the skill was the charging stage which is to concentrate Ki into rope shapes and spin it in a perfect spiral, the longer one charges the more Ki was compressed and needed to perfectly spin it in a perfect spiral path which in return required even higher Ki Control. It was normal to charge the Special Beam Cannon as much as possible to increase its destructive force. But who will give you the time to stay defenseless and charge your ultimate attack? That was it was imperative for Raditz to practice and practice until he could charge the skill to an acceptable level before it was viable in battle. Raditz was amazed by the enormous Ki level emitted by his Special Beam Cannon once he had charged it to the limit of what his Ki Control allowed. Of course, it required a very long time to do such a charging. It was no wonder Goku only used Kamehameha. Once their Ki level was at such a high level, it would naturally turn even harder to control such a big volume of Ki. Raditz admired Piccolo for using such a complex technique, especially when he became a Super Namekian, with such a huge volume of Ki, he was still able to perfectly perform the Special Beam Cannon. In Ki Control, Piccolo was certainly a genius through and through. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. Raditz decided to fly around in space and find a suitable place to plant the Tree of Might. He did not know how long he would be traveling, but he was going to train seriously while on the spaceship and decided to restock his senzu beans. Raditz teleported over to Korin Tower and really appreciated such a convenient skill once again. Raditz took 12 senzu beans, bringing his stock of senzu beans up to 15. Although there were 7 more senzu beans, Raditz decided to leave some for Goku and the others in case of an emergency. Last time when they had fought Turles while Raditz was traveling in space. Because Raditz had taken all the senzu beans prior to his trip, Goku had almost died if Raditz had not made it back to Earth on time. "Be sure to keep up the output, don''t lower it. But you can increase the output if you want." Raditz said. "Ah! Do you want to work me to death, meow?" Korin said angrily and knocked his staff on the floor. Raditz quickly said goodbye and flew away. After finding a big clearing, he threw out his spaceship capsule and flew out to space. "Alright! Let''s aim for Super Saiyan!" Raditz raised his arms and pumped his fists at the sky. After he set up the spaceship''s flight path to fly outward in a spiral path with Earth in the center. Raditz configured the Gravity Simulation Machine to 200x gravity and started training his body. "Ugh! I thought 200x gravity would be a piece of cake. Turns out it was just my Ki increasing..." Raditz muttered as he felt the enormous pressure from 200x gravity acting on his entire body, like a pair of giant hands pressing down on him. Although it was possible for him to use his large Ki to counteract the gravity, it wouldn''t help him train his body and simply waste his training. Raditz let this Ki converge inside his body without letting it out to alleviate the pressure his body felt, but he did let the Ki cycle around his body and seep into his cells to reinvigorate his body and quicken his body''s recovery rate. Since he had plenty of senzu beans to spare, Raditz was not afraid of pushing his body too hard. After getting used to 200x gravity, although it would be unbearable for him to keep staying in 200x gravity for longer periods, he could now move more naturally for at least a short moment. While training hard, Raditz did not forget to occasionally inspect the planets he passed by. Although his spaceship had passed numerous planets already, the Tree of Might required a high amount of nutrition to mature and bear fruits. A planet rich in lifeforce yet devoid of living people was difficult to find. 2 Months had passed since Raditz left Earth. The spaceship landed on a brown dwarf planet. "I miss Piccolo... It was so convenient to bring a clothes materializer around." A topless and sweaty Raditz disembarked from his spaceship. He couldn''t be bothered to put on a new set of clothes while his pants were still quite intact. Raditz sent out some Ki to wrap around his body and vibrated the Ki in high frequency in a few short bursts. All the sweat was shaken off by the vibration and fell to the brown ground. "Heheh, I didn''t expect myself to be able to use such a convenient technique." Raditz smirked. He had vaguely remembered seeing something similar from maybe a movie or TV series he had seen before his transmigration. Unfortunately, his memories before the transmigration remained blurry and unclear. But he was still able to imitate it and achieve a similar result to his satisfaction. Raditz crouched down and grabbed a handful of the brown mud-like substance from the ground. "Hm... This looks fertile." Raditz muttered after smelling and feeling the substance. Raditz flew around the whole planet and nodded his head "This place is as of now, the best I''ve found." "If I can''t find a better place, I''ll just plant the Tree of Might here." Raditz went back to his spaceship and saved the coordinates. This was the 3rd planet that Raditz had saved its coordinates. Just as he was about to launch his spaceship, a small-sized spaceship flew toward this brown dwarf planet. "Hahaha! This guy looks quite rich!" A high-pitched voice sounded from the small spaceship. "Yeah! Yeah! I''ve decided, this is our target!" Another voice echoed. The small spaceship landed and two aliens with dinosaur-like heads stepped out and looked arrogantly at Raditz''s spaceship. "Hey! Step out of our spaceship, NOW!" The skinny alien pointed his gun at Raditz''s spaceship. "Some stupid space pirates..." Raditz frowned and opened the hatch. "A-a Saiyan?!!" The two aliens just happened to see Raditz''s brown-furred monkey tail and jumped up in fright and hugged each other. "Seems like the Saiyan race is quite notorious." Raditz had a wry smile. To think even some small space pirates would react like that once they saw a Saiyan. "G-great Saiyan, it was a mistake. We''ll immediately leave!" The other alien quickly bowed and begged with his two palms clapped together. "Scram! Don''t let me see you again." After sensing their weak Ki which could at most be a few hundred battle power, Raditz lost interest in these stupid space pirates that did not even have a scouter. Though the scouters were developed by Frieza Force and might be exclusive to them. But Raditz couldn''t imagine such weak space pirates being so arrogant while they''re unable to identify nor measure their target''s battle power. "If I was them I would most likely pretend to be a traveler and "befriend" my target so as to extract all kinds of information from them..." Raditz pondered then shook his head "No, why the heck am I even thinking about this?" "Oh, Great Saiyan. We''ll scram now. We''ll immediately scram!!" The two space pirates hurriedly scrambled back to their spaceship and flew away as fast as they could. 26 Meet The Future Boy Raditz took a few days of well-deserved rest. He had trained hard for over 4 months and enjoyed the relaxing days on Earth. Since he had nothing to do on his rest days, he brought Gohan and Goku to relax with him. Although Raditz invited Piccolo as well, he declined as he was intent on continuing his persistent training. "Wow, Gohan you really have changed a lot!" Raditz praised Gohan. Even without sparring with Gohan, Raditz could feel the great change in his Ki and aura. "Yes, uncle Piccolo is very strict but also caring. Unlike dad, Piccolo knows how to be harsh and push me to my limits. Ehehe... Dad is always so soft, but I can''t blame him either." Gohan said with a smile, like always he was happy to get praised. Gohan had felt the huge difference between Goku and Piccolo''s teaching. Being as hardworking as he is, he was rather happy to train under Piccolo. Raditz was taught how to fish with his tail. Both Raditz and Gohan stood at the bank of the river with their tails waving slowly in the water. Once they felt a stir in the water, they retracted their tails and behind them, a giant fish jumped out of the water chasing their tails. "Ahh! That reminds me of my childhood. I used to fish with my tail too. Too bad Kami had it removed." Goku reminisced and said in a laid back manner. ... A time machine with the Capsule Corp logo on its engine suddenly appeared in the Northern Wastelands. A purple-haired youth disembarked and surveyed his surroundings. "I hope I can change the past and save my world." Trunks muttered. "...That''s weird. I''m pretty sure Frieza should be coming over by now." A confused Trunks flew up in the skies and scouted the area for any signs of battle. "I can''t find any debris of Frieza''s spaceship either. It''s as if he never appeared on Earth." Trunks had circled around the whole Northern Wastelands a few times already and got more confounded the more he scouted the area. "I wonder if Goku will still land in the same spot?" Trunks looked doubtfully the coordinates shown on his watch. Still, with no better options. Trunks flew over to the coordinates that Goku had landed on Earth from his timeline. "It''s been over 4 hours... According to mom, he should have landed here over an hour ago." Trunks said with a wry smile. Unfortunately, even after waiting for over 4 hours, Goku did not land there. Because he was born late, he did not recognize any of the Ki around on Earth. "What do I do? The past is nothing like what mom told me... Could it be that the past has already diverged? But how? It shouldn''t be... I just arrived." Trunks said in disbelief. "Let''s go to Goku''s home. Gohan should be there." Trunks decided and took to the skies. Because Trunks had suppressed his Ki, no one noticed his arrival on their timeline. ... Above the skies in Mt. Paozu, tiny shockwaves exploded and stirred the air. Raditz and Gohan were sparring high up in the skies, so as not to destroy the surface area of Mt. Paozu. Especially since they lived there. Even though they were not fighting with all they had and had suppressed their Ki, they still caused a small stir high up in the skies, with each clash, a tiny shockwave spread out and tiny explosions could be heard in the skies. "How is this possible?! Even though Gohan isn''t going all out, with my experience I would say his battle power is enormous already! Maybe 3 or 400,000. It could even be more, considering Gohan''s potential, without extreme anger, it''s difficult for him to dig out all his powers..." Raditz was shocked. He had thought he had worked hard by reaching 3 million battle power. But Gohan was already catching up. Maybe because Raditz was behind in training by a year since he was only focused on tempering his spirit and the few Spirit Control techniques he had set his eyes on while he stayed in Planet Yardrat. Gohan hadn''t reached the threshold to learn Instant Transmission, but he couldn''t have only tempered his spirit for a whole year in Planet Yardrat. Raditz did remember giving Gohan the advise to also train his body in the Gravity Chamber. "I did know Gohan has incredible potential since he was able to transform into a Super Saiyan 2 not long after he learned to transform into a Super Saiyan in Cell Saga..." Raditz thought. "How did I do uncle Raditz?" Gohan asked with eager eyes as if saying "Please praise me!" "Very good! You''re catching up to me soon." Raditz smiled and ruffled Gohan''s hair. "Hahaha!" Gohan laughed happily. They descended and landed back on the ground. But what waited for them was a grumpy Bulma standing next to her hovercar. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Raditz! When are we going to space?" Bulma walked out of the hovercar with her cheeks puffed. "Come on, it''s only been over a week since I came back from space." Raditz complained. "What? When did you go to space?! Why didn''t you bring me? I want to go to!! I want to go!" Bulma threw a tantrum. "Then why don''t you just go by yourself? You got plenty of spare spaceships at home." Raditz asked. "Are you crazy? There are tons of bad guys on Earth already. I bet there are even more bad guys in space." Bulma complained. Just then, Raditz felt like he sensed something and turned to look at the skies. A tiny black dot was rapidly enlarging and soon turned into a young man with purple hair. "Ah. That''s future Trunks. I did remember it was around Age 764, August he came. Too bad there was no exact date, so I had wondered whether this timeline was the main timeline or an alternative timeline created by future Trunks from his time travel... But now I know." Raditz had a slight smile. How interesting it is for Raditz to be in an alternative timeline, but it was the main timeline of the storyline that appeared on the anime. "That means Cell is already here. How fun." Raditz had a smile on his face upon thinking of Cell, he unconsciously turned to look at Gohan. Bulma wasn''t able to make sense of the tiny dot far in the distance, but Gohan stared seriously at the dot as it enlarged. "Who is he? I''ve never sensed his Ki before. His Ki is weak, but I have the feeling he is really strong." Gohan looked serious. "What? Is it an enemy? Don''t tell me the Saiyans have finally come?" Bulma started getting worried. Future Trunks lightly landed on his feet in front of Raditz and the rest. Gohan raised his arms and prepared himself for battle. Bulma was worried that Trunks was a Saiyan and hid behind Raditz''s back. "Hello." Trunks looked awkwardly at the group that did not look very welcoming to him. "Phew! He doesn''t have a tail." Bulma wiped away the sweat on her forehead and heaved a sigh in relief. "Though he is not a Saiyan, he''s quite close to being one as a half Saiyan..." Raditz joked in his mind. "Hello. Who are you looking for, mister?" Upon seeing that Trunks was friendly and meant no harm. Gohan reverted back to the cute and lovely kid again. "Eh...? Ah! Yes! Yes, yes! I''m looking for Mr. Son Goku. Do you know where he is?" Trunks had been looking at Raditz in a daze. "Just who is that Saiyan? Mom told me the only Saiyans on Earth were my dad, Mr. Son Goku, and Gohan..." Trunks thought in his mind upon seeing Raditz''s brown-furred monkey tail. It actually wasn''t so simple for him to identify a Saiyan, considering that all Saiyans had had their tails cut off from his timeline. So Trunks was even more confounded to see both Gohan and Raditz have their tails intact. "Oh, my dad? He''s home. What''s your name, mister?" Gohan looked curiously at Trunks. "Huh, your jacket got our Capsule Corp logo. Are you perhaps one of our employees?" After Bulma relaxed, she got curious and especially after seeing the handsome Trunks, she couldn''t help but scrutinize him closer. "No, I''m not... I''m sorry, but I can''t tell you." Trunks said apologetically. "It''s not like you''ll be born, considering Vegeta never came to Earth..." Raditz lampooned in his mind. Even if he stayed mysterious to hide his identity, it was unknown whether Bulma will be able to have a "Trunks" when she still had never met Vegeta in this timeline. "You can''t even tell us anything?" Bulma was disgruntled by Trunks'' attitude. "I''m sorry, I can''t tell you my name, but I can tell you my age. I''m 17. But I would like to speak to Mr. Son Goku, it''s important." Trunks said apologetically. "I don''t think he''s a bad person. Come, I''ll bring you to my dad." Gohan said and lead the group back to his home. 27 Trunks Shock While they were walking back to Goku''s home, Raditz kept looking eagerly at Trunks. "I know he''s a Super Saiyan already! I was going to try and test if I can get the hang of Super Saiyan on my own. But this is even better! If I can have Trunks help me...!" Raditz thought happily. "Is, is there something on my face?" Trunks felt uncomfortable from Raditz''s intense stare. "Oh. I just feel like you smell like us." Raditz said in a teasing manner. He especially emphasized the "us" "A-ah!" Trunks were so shocked he stopped in his tracks. "What? Mister, you''re also a Saiyan?" Gohan''s eyes widened and looked curiously at Trunks. "Ah?! S-Saiyan? Oh no! The Saiyans have finally come to invade Earth!" Bulma yelped in shock and hid behind Raditz. "W-what...?" Trunks had a dumb look on his face. He could not understand what was going on. How could Bulma be so shocked and even think the Saiyans had invaded Earth just because of his appearance? "Just what has happened to change the past''s history by so much?" Trunks were truly shocked and confounded. But it was difficult for him to ask for more information from the group. Considering that he was not telling them anything about himself. "Y-yes I''m a Saiyan, but I''m not here to invade Earth." Trunks said awkwardly. He didn''t dare to say he was a half-Saiyan in case he let the cat out of the bag and let someone accidentally guess his identity, which might erase his existence if he doesn''t get born. Maybe because Future Trunks did not kill Frieza and save Earth, his actions of hiding his identity made them more suspicious of him. Luckily Raditz knew him well and mediate a bit until the group reached Goku''s home.

You don''t even have a job, is this how you should act as a role model for Gohan?! If it wasn''t for father leaving us with a large wealth, we wouldn''t even be able to live in a house anymore!" Chichi''s loud reprimands could be heard even at the front door with the door closed. "Mom! I''m back!" Gohan looking embarrassed, hurriedly shouted. "Oh, Gohan is back! Goku! Remember, don''t disrupt Gohan''s studies! He needs to study from noon to evening!" Chichi lowered her voice, but everyone could still hear her. "Damn, she''s really ruining Gohan!" Raditz''s lips twitched. "Gohan! Dear, are you hungry? Don''t play too hard. You need to stay energetic so you can study more, but don''t let your playing affect your studies." Chichi looked at Gohan in concern, she even raised his arms and checked every part of his body to make sure he was fine. "I''m fine, mom..." Gohan said helplessly. "Oh, brother-in-law! Bulma! And we have another guest!" Chichi only noticed the others now after making sure Gohan was alright. "Goku, this mysterious young man is looking for you. Oh, by the way, he''s also a Saiyan." Bulma said. "A Saiyan?" Goku looked curiously at Trunks. Maybe because Raditz was fine with him being there, Goku did not link him with the evil Saiyans like Nappa and Vegeta. "You''re Mr. Son Goku?" Trunks asked Goku to reconfirm because he had never met Goku before in his timeline. "Yeah." Goku nodded. "Good. I need to talk with you alone, can you come with me?" Trunks asked. "Sure." Goku followed Trunks to a fair distance away from his home. "Mr. Goku, can you tell me everything of importance that has happened since Age 762 until now?" Trunks was just too confused with the current past''s history after seeing Goku was still on Earth instead of having just returned back to Earth. He was also confused that Frieza did not show up. "Sure." Goku in his laid back manner started telling everything that had happened, from when he first met Raditz, to his training at King Kai, to their space travel to Planet Yardrat and fighting the Ginyu Force. "What?! Father- no, Vegeta never came to Earth?! What about Planet Namek?" Trunks was shocked by how different the past''s history was from his time in the future. "Planet Namek? No, we''ve not been there. But Piccolo wants to visit his home planet, so we plan to go to Planet Namek later." Goku said. "Then you''ve never met Frieza?" Trunks asked, still in shock. "Frieza? No, although I want to fight him since he is so strong. But big brother said he is the strongest in the universe and even he doesn''t dare to fight him..." Goku said with some desire. "Oh no! How can this be?! If- if so, everyone must be really weak right now!! How will they cope with the Androids in 3 years? Mr. Goku might not even be able to transform into a Super Saiyan either without having fought Frieza!!" Trunks held his head and muttered in disbelief. He didn''t even know what to do. He was also worried that Vegeta might never meet Bulma, so he might get erased if they don''t give birth to him. Raditz, Gohan, Bulma, and Chichi looked at Trunks and Goku chatting and turned speechless from seeing Trunks'' panicking state. "I think I know what''s going on in his mind..." Raditz thought while looking at Trunks'' performance in amusement. "Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?" Goku asked, yet never suspected the actual reason for Trunks'' to be in such a panic. "I... The truth is that I''m from the future. But somehow, the past''s history has changed by a lot." Trunks started explaining from his identity to their current state in the future to his reason for traveling back in time to bring hope. "I can''t believe you''re actually Vegeta''s son. But Vegeta and Nappa still haven''t come to Earth, will he really meet Bulma?" Goku looked curiously at Bulma and wondered how she would get together with Vegeta. "But I can''t believe I actually killed my own big brother in your time''s history." Goku then turned to look at Raditz. "Oh, man! I died from heart disease? I really want to fight those androids though!" Goku clenched his fist and said in disappointment. "The androids are even stronger than me after I transform into a Super Saiyan. Aren''t you afraid of them?" Trunks asked in wonder, especially after knowing that Goku could not transform into a Super Saiyan. "I sure am afraid, but the thought of challenging such strong people excites me more! I wonder if I can defeat them if I start training now." Goku looked eagerly forward to meeting the androids in the future. They continued talking, and Goku promised to keep Trunks'' identity a secret. Then Trunks gave him the medicine to cure the heart disease Goku would contract in the future. Trunks hesitated for a while. He had originally planned to only give the medicine and warn Goku about the androids in 3 years'' time. His mother had told him the reason they fell into such a ruined state was that Goku who had always protected Earth time and time again, had contracted a heart disease and died... But now he was worried whether they would be able to defeat the androids even after training for 3 years. What he worried the most was them not being able to learn about how to transform into a Super Saiyan. Because Goku had by chance managed to transform into a Super Saiyan during his fight with Frieza, he was able to pass on his experiences to the others. But in this timeline, they still had not achieved Super Saiyan Transformation, which worried Trunks deeply, fearing what if the past will turn out even worse than the future he came from. 28 Super Saiyan Trunks Trunks finally made up his mind to teach Goku, Gohan, and Raditz, the only Saiyans on Earth how to achieve the Super Saiyan Transformation. He planned to spend a few days to teach them, then find a way to bring Vegeta to Earth so his existence won''t be erased. Of course, if he knew that he did not simply travel back in time, but to a different timeline, he would not be so worried. Even if he returns in three years, he who had witnessed the strength of the androids did not have the confidence to take care of both #17 and #18 alone. But if they were able to bring in another Super Saiyan or two, the results would be different. Having made up his mind, Trunks brought Goku, Gohan, and Raditz to Northern Wasteland. "I''ll be teaching you guys how to transform into Super Saiyans. This is very important if you want to defeat the androids in 3 years." Trunks said. "Super Saiyan? I heard the Ginyu Force said that the Super Saiyan of the legend is the only thing Frieza is afraid of!" Gohan said excitedly. "Haaaaaaaaah!!" Trunks clenched his fists and gathered all his strength and yelled out. A shockwave blasted out, pushing the dust on the ground away from Trunks. His hair turned golden blond and rose up with an appearance similar to a flame. His pupils also turned blue. But the most shocking was his Ki turned enormous and oppressive to the trio. "W-what an amazing Ki level!" Goku said and focused his eyes on Trunks. "Wow! So strong!" Gohan commented. "So this is how a Super Saiyan feels..." Raditz carefully sensed Trunks'' Ki'' properties and changes from before his transformation. Trunks'' gentleness had disappeared, what replaced it was the aggressiveness that had appeared in his Ki.

But a sufficiently high Ki level is also necessary." Trunks explained. The trio tried to transform into Super Saiyans while bursting out with all their energy and digging a large ditch under their feet. "Haaaaaaaaah!!" Goku looked really serious as he yelled out. After a while, he stopped and said "Ahahaha... I can''t really get angry." Goku said while scratching the back of his head with a silly smile plastered on his face. Gohan tried hard too, but he also wasn''t able to get so angry. "Haaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!" Raditz exerted all his strength, the small ditch under him widened in size into a small crater. "F*ck! This isn''t working. I can''t think of anything that can make me really really mad." Raditz swore in his mind. After resting for a bit, Raditz tried to send all his power into the top of his spine, just right below his neck. But even after exhausting all his energy, Raditz did not feel the tingling sensation. "I did guess so... I''m still too weak and don''t have enough S-Cells on my back to give me any feedback." Raditz sighed. He knew that once he had a sufficient amount of S-Cells, it would be much easier to transform into a Super Saiyan by focusing all his power on the top of his spine. But for that to work, he needed a large amount of S-Cells on his back. The orthodox way to transform into a Super Saiyan by relying on one''s rage would excite all the S-Cells in one''s whole body, therefore having a much lower threshold of S-Cells to perform the transformation. Though, the best plan was to increase his battle power so that more S-Cells will be generated. Maybe because they had not had many enemies and had fewer bad experiences, even after a whole day passed, they did not manage to make any progress. Because they had learned everything they needed for the Super Saiyan Transformation, they decided to stop training and wait for an opportunity to transform. After discussing a bit, the group decided to gather all their friends and tell them about the androids'' attack in 3 years. Trunks was still worried about his existence and asked Raditz about the possible places Vegeta might be. "Hm... He''s most likely still looking for suitable planets to live in and wiping out natives before selling the planets... If we want to find out Vegeta''s exact whereabouts, we would need to hijack one of Frieza Force''s bases and force one of the intelligence officers to trace Vegeta''s scouter." Raditz shifted through his memories and said. "With a big insurance with me, I can take this chance to rob a few of Frieza Force''s warehouses. Hey, I can even go fight it out with Frieza!" Raditz smiled. What would be better than have a serious life and death battle with a big boss watching over him? He could totally take advantage of his Zenkai while fighting Frieza. Maybe because Elder Souma had purged half of Raditz''s spirit''s impurities, he was no longer as rash as before to simply rush to his own death and pit it out with Frieza all alone. Considering how arrogant Frieza is, there was a chance for Raditz to assassinate Frieza in his first form. But he was more worried about the consequences. If he failed, Frieza would go crazy and destroy Earth and kill him, destroying any chances for him to revive. And even if he succeeded in assassinating Frieza, what if King Cold came to destroy Earth for revenge? After a quick discussion, they decided to fly to Planet Frieza 79 which was closest to Earth. Goku went to bring everyone over to his home, Instant Transmission really came in handy, after a few minutes, everyone had gathered in Goku''s home. "Just how much has everyone improved... Goku''s Ki must be higher than Gohan''s by at least one fold..." Raditz was surprised that Goku wasn''t all exhausted from performing so many teleportations. After everyone had gathered, Trunks had to warn everyone about the androids since Goku had forgotten most of the key information already... "Can we really trust this guy that even hides his name?" Yamcha was distrustful of Trunks. Tien Shinhan and Chiatzu were also suspicious of Trunks. "Don''t worry, he''s telling the truth." Goku said. After Gohan and Raditz chipped in and convinced everyone, were they finally able to convince everyone. Though still reluctant, they finally believed that Trunks was from the future. "Alright, three years from now, let''s us meet up on an island 9 kilometers southwest of South City on 12th May at 9 o''clock in the morning." Piccolo said. They decided to meet up an hour before the androids arrive. "Let me be clear. If anyone isn''t confident, don''t bother showing up. Our enemies this time will be on a whole other level. You''ll just drag us down." Piccolo said sternly. "Looks like Piccolo is really confident... For some reason." Raditz looked at Piccolo in surprise. Wondering just where he got all that confidence from. "The only thing I can think of is the trip to Planet Yardrat really benefited him the most since it suits his training style the most." Raditz thought. No one else meditated as much as Piccolo did, with the Yardratian''s meditation techniques, Piccolo''s training was several times more effective. "Heheh, don''t look down on us." Yamcha looked confident. "Heheheh." Krillin laughed as well. "Ooh... They haven''t experienced enough hardships..." Raditz suddenly understood. Because they did not experience the Saiyan Saga, with the lack of deaths and with them having trained under King Kai. It was no wonder they felt so confident after the sudden boost in their battle power. 29 King Kais Message "Say... Can''t we just track down this Dr. Gero who created these androids in the future and take him out NOW, while he still hasn''t created those scary androids yet? Even if we don''t know where he is, we can use the Dragon Balls and ask Shenron. Then we won''t have to go through all this trouble in three years." Bulma suggested. "That''s a wonderful idea, mo- Bulma! This way, we won''t have to fight the androids!" Trunks said excitedly. "Since everyone agreed. Let''s do that!" Bulma hurriedly said. "I don''t know, Bulma. I think we stand a good chance now if we start training hard for three years." Yamcha said. Maybe he didn''t believe that much in Trunks'' words after all. Or he was just deluded from his great increase in battle power. "What the hell is the matter with you guys? This isn''t a game! The entire planet''s fate is riding on this!" Seeing as no one stood up for her, Bulma yelled angrily. "You''ll agree with me right, Goku?" Bulma held Goku''s arms and shook him with a pleading look. "Sorry, I kinda want to fight the androids too. Besides, this scientist still hasn''t made anything yet. So killing him now seems unfair..." Goku said. "W-what about you, Raditz?" Bulma frantically shook Raditz. "Hm... To be honest, without even achieving Super Saiyan, it''s a bit too farfetched for us to handle the androids. But, since we still have 3 years to prepare. After having seen Trunks'' transformation, I now have faith in achieving my own Super Saiyan Transformation. As long as I continue to increase my battle power, I''ll definitely be able to transform soon..." Raditz pondered. "There is also Cell... Though if we were to use the Dragon Balls to prematurely take care of all them, then there''s only Frieza left. Well, Frieza can be killed with Trunks'' help. So there is only Buu left... Without at least Super Saiyan 2, we won''t be able to handle Dabura. So there is no way to stop Buu from appearing..." Raditz thought logically. "Looks like we don''t have a choice but to temper ourselves with danger to fight the greater danger in the future..." Raditz clenched his teeth and decided. "Of course I need a backup plan too. If none of us manages to transform into a Super Saiyan, we could potentially use the Dragon Balls, as long as it''s before the 3 years deadline to get rid of Dr. Gero and stop him from activating the androids. That way, Cell will also be unable to become perfect. He''ll then most likely decide to time travel to another timeline with the androids still alive... Of course, even if Cell achieves perfect form and kills us. With us defending Earth, we''ll have our bodies recreated and allowed to continue training in the Other World." Raditz imagined himself praying for another timeline''s survival in case Cell really travels to another timeline... "But if I manage to befriend the Namekians, then even after we die, we still have a chance to come back and even wish for Earth to be restored. That is if Cell never destroys Planet Namek." Raditz finished planning his backup plans. "Sorry, Bulma. But I think we need some strong enemies to temper ourselves. Isn''t it boring to not have any strong enemies to fight?" Raditz said. "Hahaha. That''s my big brother!" Goku agreed happily. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "G-Guys! Don''t listen to these crazy Saiyans. They''re all battle maniacs! If you guys die, if Piccolo dies. We won''t have the dragon balls to wish you back to life! Besides, Krillin, Chiatzu, you two have already been brought back to life once. If you two dies, we won''t be able to bring you two back to life again." Bulma frantically tried to persuade everyone to kill Dr. Gero before he creates the androids. "I''ll fight, I want to test what I''m capable of. And if I die honorably in battle, so be it." Tien Shinhan made up his resolve. "Admirable!" Raditz silently praised Tien Shinhan''s courage and resolve. Unfortunately, it was difficult for a human to improve to the android''s level. Chiatzu had blind belief in Tien Shinhan and did not dissuade the rest from fighting. Krillin believed in Goku, especially since Trunks gave him the medicines for the heart disease. He believed the future would change. Trunks had wanted to persuade them against fighting the androids since Bulma had a better solution. But after seeing everyone''s attitudes, he helplessly kept silent. "...Fine, do what you guys want. I don''t know how a fragile civilian girl like me got mixed up with you guys." Bulma said angrily. "The same fragile civilian girl that wants to travel in space?" Raditz said speechlessly. "That''s not the same, I got you as my bodyguard!" Bulma defended herself. "..." Raditz rolled his eyes. "Let''s fight and win for a peaceful future!" Goku raised his fist up and said with vigor. "Yeah!" Everyone raised their fists and pumped to the sky. Since everyone had come to an agreement to meet at 9 o''clock on the 12th May on the island 9 kilometer southwest of South City. Raditz decided to invite everyone who was interested in coming along to raid Planet Frieza 79. It would also do good for the team to go through more hardships. Since Raditz planned to fight it out with Frieza, and regardless of whether he wins or loses, he had Trunks to rely on if something goes awry. "Are you crazy? You plan to raid Frieza''s bases? Do you want to send the whole Earth to oblivion?! Didn''t you tell us Frieza was the Emperor of the Universe and undefeatable?!" Bulma freaked out. "Don''t worry, we got Trunks to back us up if anything goes wrong." Raditz said nonchalantly. "Oh right, you wanted to travel to space, wanna come?" Raditz teased. "$&@#! Are you trying to kill me?!" Bulma cursed aloud. "Don''t worry, we can always use the Dragon Balls to wish you back to life." Raditz said with an innocent look while trying his best to hold back from laughing. Bulma gave Raditz the finger and stomped away angrily. "I''m in! This raid will whet my fist." Yamcha said. "I''m ready to fight!" Tien Shinhan said eagerly. "Since everybody is going, I''m also coming." Krillin said. "If Tien is going, I''m coming too." Chiatzu said. "Count me in." Piccolo said cooly. Goku and Gohan naturally wanted to go too. Everyone''s morale rose and they pumped their fists in the air vigorously. "Goku! Raditz! Everyone! This is bad!!" King Kai''s frantic voice sounded in everyone''s mind. "King Kai? What''s wrong?" Goku asked. "Na-namek! Planet Namek is under attack! Frieza and his men are killing the Namekians!" King Kai shouted. Maybe because Raditz had asked King Kai for Planet Namek''s coordinates, he had kept an eye on Planet Namek and noticed Frieza attacking Planet Namek. "@$&#! My backup plan!!" Raditz felt like coughing blood. "Why don''t we use the Dragon Balls to wish for the Namekians to teleport to Earth?" Krillin suggested. "Cant, some bastard summoned Shenron a few months ago..." Raditz said helplessly, he also had that idea in mind. "King Kai, can''t you ask the Namekians to gather their Dragon Balls and wish for them to teleport away?" Raditz suggested instead. "Alright, I''ll tell Grand Elder Moori that." King Kai said. A few moments later, King Kai came back with bad news. "Unfortunately, even though Frieza doesn''t know what the Dragon Balls are, they took a liking to them and are currently holding on to one of the Namekian Dragon Balls..." King Kai said helplessly. Raditz cursed Frieza for holding one of the Namekian Dragon Balls, while he doesn''t even know its use. ... "What''s this? A big ball of gold?" a Frieza henchman held up the 2 Star Namekian Dragon Ball curiously with both his hands. "Stop! Don''t touch that!" A Namekian Warrior disregarded their lives and attacked that henchman. Because of the sudden attack, the other men from Frieza Force''s army could not react in time to help and defend for that henchman. The Namekian Warriors made quick work of that henchman and held the Dragon Ball. "Ohoh... That big ball of gold seems important to them. Let''s bring it back to Lord Frieza." Dodoria said and flew up to the Namekian warrior holding the Dragon ball. Dodoria kicked the Dragon Ball out of the Namekian Warrior''s hands before blasting him to oblivion with a Ki Beam. Then he leisurely caught the Dragon Ball falling down from the sky. With the help of Dodoria, they minimized the casualties on their side after killing all the Namekian Warriors from the village. "What is this ball and what is its uses?" Dodoria asked the village elder. "..." The village elder kept silent. "Watch over them, kill them if they resist." Dodoria commanded the henchmen before he flew back to report to Frieza. "Lord Frieza, I found this big ball of gold. I don''t know what it is, but the Namekians places very high importance on this ball. Even the village elder got very nervous after I got the ball." Dodoria reported and handed over the Dragon Ball to Frieza. "It''s nothing special. Just continue to slowly torture the Namekians to death. Wait until Raditz or his companions appear." Frieza hovered the Dragon Ball telekinetically in front of him, after not being able to see anything special, he threw it into the corner of his room in his spaceship. 30 Going To Planet Namek "Everyone! We''re going to Planet Namek. Now!" Raditz shouted. He had already planned to fight Frieza, fighting him earlier wasn''t a problem for Raditz as long as he had Trunks behind him. "Let''s go!" Piccolo was probably the only one that was worried about his home planet. "Everyone hold each other''s hands and then the final one put your on my back." Raditz said and quickly locked on to King Kai''s Ki. Everyone quickly held each other''s hands and the last one put his hand on Raditz''s back. Raditz then teleported everyone over to King Kai. "Are you guys crazy? You want to fight Frieza?!" King Kai yelled in disbelief. "Don''t worry, we just need to steal the Dragon Ball from Frieza. We got Instant Transmission, we can easily escape if things go awry." Raditz persuaded King Kai. Since the situation at Planet Namek was worsening, Raditz''s solution was the only way out for the Namekians. King Kai relented and helped Raditz locate Planet Namek with his two antennae. "Found it! That huge Ki must be Frieza''s. Hum... Yes! That Ki feels similar to Piccolo!" Raditz didn''t want to teleport right in front of Frieza with everyone on tow and decided on teleporting to the Ki that felt similar to Piccolo as he believed it might be a Namekian. Everyone disappeared with a swish and reappeared on Planet Namek. "So this is Planet Namek... It feels strangely familiar. The Namekian blood within me must be causing me to feel this way..." Piccolo muttered and looked around. "You people are?" Grand Elder Moori asked in shock upon the sudden appearance of Raditz''s team. "We come from King Kai''s Planet. We''re here to save Planet Namek." Raditz briefed. He remembered Moori who took over as the next Grand Elder after Guru passed away. It seemed that due to their late arrival on Planet Namek, Grand Elder Guru had already passed away. "Too bad we''re missing out on having our potentials unlocked." Raditz sighed internally. "Frieza has invaded our home planet, Tsuno Village has been destroyed. According to King Kai''s plan, I''ve sent Nail to collect the Dragon Balls." Grand Elder Moori explained. "But Frieza took one of the Dragon Balls already!" Raditz blurted out in shock. How could they send Nail to steal the Dragon Ball from Frieza? Wasn''t he sending Nail to his death? "Yes, but unless we are able to gather the Dragon Balls, we won''t be able to flee from our home planet. If we can''t flee, then Frieza will eventually kill all of us. Sigh, we can only bet on Nail''s luck." Grand Elder Moori sighed. They could only bet on Nail being lucky to steal Frieza''s Dragon Ball when Frieza isn''t watching over it. Luckily, they were still collecting the other 6 Dragon balls and would only send Nail to try his luck on stealing Frieza''s Dragon Ball after they had gathered the other 6 Dragon Balls. There were 6 villages and each village kept one Dragon Ball. The last Dragon Ball was kept in the Grand Elder''s place. With one village now gone, they needed to gather the remaining 5 from the 5 remaining villages. Nail was already going to one of the villages, so their team decided to split into 4 groups and head to the other 4 villages and bring the dragon balls, while also taking care of any of Frieza''s henchmen that were attacking the villages. Because Goku, Piccolo, and Raditz had learned Instant Transmission they would be able to escape with the others in case of danger. They would each be in their separate group, while Trunks was strong enough to not be in any danger no matter what situation was in his own group. Goku, Gohan, and Krillin was the 1st group, Piccolo, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu was the 2nd group. Raditz was strong enough so he was on his own, the same went with Trunks. Goku, Piccolo, and Raditz found a large number of living people''s Ki in the direction of their target village and teleported their group over. Trunks did not know Instant Transmission and flew in the direction of his target village. Piccolo teleported over to Yubiko Village with his group. "Hahaha! Come on! Keep resisting!" The pink alien, Dodoria laughed while stepping on the head of a Namekian Warrior. The Namekian Warrior did not give in and after finding an opening, he shot out a pair of eye beams at Dodoria''s scouter. With a small explosion, the scouter turned into scraps with greyish smoke wafting from the remains. "Damn you! Die!" Dodoria cursed in anger and stepped hard on the Namekian''s head. Just like a watermelon being crushed, the Namekian Warrior''s head broke apart, with purple blood splashing everywhere. "Bastards! You''ll pay for this!" Piccolo who had just arrived only managed to turn his head and see his own people die before him. Numerous henchmen were shooting their beam guns and crippling numerous Namekian villagers and slowly torturing them to death. Piccolo disappeared from his position and a moment later appeared in front of Dodoria. "Die!" Piccolo kicked Dodoria''s temple, sending him flying. With a murderous look, Piccolo jumped up into the sky, opened his mouth wide and shout out a mouth beam, he turned his head and whipped the beam horizontally over the majority of the henchmen. "Ahh!" "Ah!" Numerous heartwrenching cries sounded briefly before they ceased. "Let''s help Piccolo!" Yamcha shouted and rushed to the nearest Frieza henchman. It had only been a few seconds since Piccolo teleported them over. Only now had their brains processed the situation and reacted. Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu nodded and sprung to their own targets. "Damn! You cowardly Namekian ambushed me!" Dodoria had lost his scouter and had no idea just how strong his opponent was. After coughing out a mouthful of blood and massaging his banging headache induced temple, he finally managed to shake off his dizziness. Unfortunately, he did not notice his deformed temple after getting kicked hard, due to his anger and confidence in his own strength. "You''ll pay for killing my people!" Piccolo said in rage and slowly walked up to Dodoria. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "I''ll slowly torture you!" Dodoria said sinisterly and sprung forward, his fists aiming at Piccolo. "Fool!" Piccolo grabbed both of Dodoria''s arms and twisted them hard and with a strong pull, he pulled off Dodoria''s arms like twisting and separating a crab claw. "AAAAHH!!" Dodoria let out a heartwrenching pained yell and rolled on the ground. "Noisy!" Piccolo frowned and pointed two of his fingers at Dodoria''s head. A finger thick laser beam blasted Dodoria''s head into tiny pieces. "Run!" The remaining Frieza henchmen were already scared out of their wits. Once Dodoria died, they scrambled away. "Don''t even think about leaving!" Piccolo yelled and chased the escaping men. Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu also hurried to intercept the running men. 31 Saving Nail Boom! A large explosion engulfed several Namekian Warriors. "Alright, I''ve taken care of those annoying pests. Don''t tell me I need to do everything myself? I can''t have my handsome self be blemished by their dirty blood." Zarbon said casually, retracted his outstretched hand and patted his clothes. "Yes sir! Sir Zarbon, thank you for your assistance! We can handle the rest!" Dozens of Frieza henchmen bowed and shouted deeply. The henchmen started surrounding the village and aimed their beam guns at the Namekians. Swish! Raditz suddenly appeared right in the middle of the village with his two fingers pointing at his forehead. "Raditz!" Zarbon yelled in shock. He had already learned that Raditz had annihilated the Ginyu Force and had a battle power of 620,000! Zarbon''s own measly battle power stood no chance against Raditz. "Oh, if it isn''t Zarbon." Raditz gave a jeering look at Zarbon. "Wait! Raditz!" Zarbon hurriedly shouted in panic upon seeing Raditz walk toward him. "Not interested. Die!" Raditz was not in the mood to play around and pointed two fingers at Zarbon. Bang! Large amounts of invisible and unconcentrated Ki gathered on Zarbon''s body, turned volatile and exploded his body into mincemeat. "Oh no! Sir Zarbon was killed by the traitor Raditz!" The henchmen yelled and escaped in panic. "Where do you lot think you''re going? Let''s try this out. Clones!" Raditz looked at the several dozens of men running in different directions. He decided to try out the clone technique he had learned from Elder Souma. Raditz split out 10 strands of his spirit and split out 10 clones from his body, each evenly distributed with 5,000 battle power. The 10 Raditz clones looked curiously for a moment before they took to the sky and chased after the escaping men. "Interesting..." Because he had split out a strand of his spirit to control each of his clones, he had some level of awareness of what his clones experienced. But due to the limited amount of spirits, the their control of their bodies and Ki was ridiculously weak and 5,000 battle power would suffice for them to fully control their power. Unless he was willing to split out a larger piece of his spirit, but that will in return weaken his control of his original body and Ki. It wasn''t like splitting his spirit in half, he would have one with 50% of his strength, instead, both his original body and his clone would be able to use about a third of his original strength regardless of whether Raditz distributed 50% of his Ki or not. Though he would gain the advantage of numbers, it was still a big loss of battle power. Because Raditz was not really interested in the clone technique, he had not furthered his practice on this technique to lessen the loss of power. Half a minute later, the 10 clones returned and fused back into Raditz''s main body. Raditz spent a few minutes talking to the village elder and teleported back to Grand Elder Moori with a Dragon Ball. Even though the enemies had been taken care of by Raditz, there was no telling if more enemies would show up. The villagers would make their way to Grand Elder Moori. Luckily the Namekians were born with enough Ki to fly even without training. Raditz handed over the Dragon Ball to Grand Elder Moori. A few moments later, Goku and Piccolo teleported back with their group and also handed over their Dragon Balls. "Good, now we got 4 Dragon Balls. Only Trunks'' and Nail''s are left." Raditz nodded. Two Namekian kids kept staring at Piccolo curiously. "Those two look like Dende... But then again they all look so similar. But since they''re looking at Piccolo like that, I bet they feel that Piccolo resembles Nail a lot." Raditz thought. "What do you want?" Piccolo frowned and asked. "Ah! No! It''s nothing. It''s just that you look very similar to our big brother Nail." Dende and Cargo said sheepishly. ... In a Namekian Village, several Namekian Warriors were besieging Nappa. Vegeta was confronting Nail. "Damned! How dare you spill my noble blood!" Vegeta spit out some blood and wiped off the blood on his lips with his sleeve. His scouter had a reading limit of 24,000 battle power and had exploded upon scanning Nail. "Evil being! You stand no chance against me." Nail said calmly. "Damn you! Damn you! I''ll kill you! I''ll kill you!!" Vegeta roared. "You''re deluded, I''ll send you to hell." Nail prepared to finish off Vegeta. "Hahaha! I''ll show you our real strength! The true strength of us Saiyans!" Vegeta said proudly and produced a Power Ball. His Ki lowered significantly, but it was worth it to transform into a Great Ape with this artificial moon. "Burst open and intermix!" Vegeta threw the Power Ball up to the sky and clenched his fist. The fist-sized Power Ball exploded and a shining ball as big as the sun appeared. "Hahaha!" Vegeta laughed and looked at the artificial moon. "Hahaha! Great job, Vegeta!" Nappa had been badly suppressed by these several Namekian Warriors'' great teamwork. He quickly raised his head and looked at the artificial moon. The two Saiyans transformed into 20 meters tall Great Apes. Although Vegeta''s Ki had lowered significantly from producing the Power Ball, the Great Ape Transformation amplified their current battle power by 10x had made up for Vegeta''s loss. "W-what in tarnation!" Nail felt their Ki rapidly increase, turned so huge and oppressive that they had eclipsed his Ki. "Time for payback!" Vegeta said sinisterly and stepped forward with a wide savage grin. ... Raditz and the team were just leisurely hanging around while waiting for Trunks and Nail to return with the two Dragon Balls before they would go after the last one held by Frieza. "Do you feel that?" Gohan turned his head and looked at the distance. Raditz, Goku, Piccolo, Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu all turned their heads in the same direction and looked deeply at the distance. "Is that Frieza?" Krillin said in a worried tone. "His Ki is so evil! It must be!" Yamcha said. "It feels too weak though..." Raditz muttered in confusion. "That''s in the direction of Uibiko Village! Big brother Nail went to Uibiko Village!" Cargo and Dende shouted in worry. Raditz even had the thought of waiting out for Nail to be half dead before bringing Piccolo over... But seeing the team raring to go, Raditz quickly shook off his useless thoughts. "Let''s go!" Piccolo clenched his teeth and shouted. Everyone put their hands together, even Dende and Cargo grabbed Piccolo''s clothes. "Cargo! Stay here." Grand Elder Moori shouted. "But..." Cargo looked at Dende. "Dende can heal, our friends might need his help. But you''ll get in their way. Be obedient and wait for them to return." After Cargo stepped away, the team teleported over to that evil Ki. Swish! The team appeared next to the feet of a gigantic 20 meter tall Great Ape. "Saiyans!" The group immediately understood who they were. Both Goku and Gohan and seen the Great Ape Transformation as well. "Raditz!" Vegeta''s roar shook everyone''s ears. "Vegeta." Raditz looked up at the Great Ape. "Nail!" Dende yelled and ran up to Nail. "Dende!" Nail said weakly. He lied on the ground without any strength left, his lower body had been crushed by Vegeta''s stomp. "I''ll heal you!" Dende put his outspread palms on Nail''s chests. Moments later, Nail had regained all his strength, though his lower body was still crushed. "Let me help you." Piccolo stepped forward and ripped off Nail''s lower body. "Ewww!" Gohan felt like vomiting from seeing the guts and all purple blood splatter around. "Huff! Thanks." Nail clenched his teeth hard to endure the pain and thanked Piccolo for ripping off his lower body. "HAAAAH!" Nail took a deep breath and clenched his fists hard, his blood vessels popped out as he clenched his teeth and shouted. Magically, he sprouted out a whole new lower body in a single moment. Disgusting greenish-yellow liquid spurted out with his newly grown lower body. "This is so crazy! Are Namekians immortal?" Krillin said in shock. Because Nail had to regenerate his whole lower body, his Ki dropped to a very low level and he was panting in exhaustion. Dende hurriedly healed Nail again and restored his energy. "Piccolo, destroy that artificial moon." Raditz said to Piccolo. Piccolo nodded and shoot a Special Beam Cannon at the brightly shining artificial moon hanging in the sky. The beam penetrated the moon, then as if the artificial moon lost its equilibrium, the whole moon distorted and compressed into a fist-sized ball before a thunderous explosion occurred. Vegeta and Nappa reverted back to their human forms with great exhaustion. The Great Ape Transformation required a lot of energy, once the transformation ceased, they would feel the exhaustion.

Piccolo gnashed his teeth after seeing the numerous Namekian corpses behind Vegeta and Nappa. The ruined buildings and scattered blood. Piccolo flew to Vegeta and readied his knife-hand to stab Vegeta with. "Wait! Piccolo, don''t kill him!" Goku hurriedly shouted in shock. Due to Trunks existence, Goku did not dare to let Piccolo kill Vegeta. "Why? Son Goku are you protecting him because you''re fellow Saiyans?" Piccolo looked angrily at Goku. "This..! I can''t tell you, but just trust me! You can''t kill Vegeta!" Goku was in a dilemma. Trunks had urged him to not tell others the identity of his parents, worried that they would become conscious of their future and change it. While they were bickering, Vegeta had surreptitiously picked up his scouter and turned it on. Earlier, he had transformed into a 20 meter tall giant Great Ape and had no way to wear the scouter. "Hahaha! Lord Frieza! Raditz is here!" Vegeta laughed sinisterly. "Damn he''s so scheming. If I didn''t brink Trunks to Planet Namek, I would not dare to confront Frieza." Raditz at Vegeta in contempt for being so dirty. "Damned bastard! He calling for Frieza!" Piccolo cursed and readied to kill Vegeta again. Although there were numerous Namekian corpses strewn around, this was still a Namekian Village, there are still many Namekians alive. If Frieza were to come and do battle with them, the casualties would be enormous. 32 Friezas Arrival "Stop! Piccolo!" Goku stood in front of Piccolo and blocked him. "They killed my people!" Piccolo said in anger. "Wait! Uncle Piccolo, it''s important! Please trust me and dad. We''ll tell you later." Gohan rushed up to Piccolo, pulled his pants and pleaded. "Fine! I''ll let him live for a bit longer. But your explanation better be worth it!" Piccolo clenched his teeth, flicked his cape and turned around. "Hm... Seems like Piccolo and Gohan are getting along quite well." Raditz thought. The rest of the team also felt Goku''s actions of defending the two evil Saiyans were wrong. And felt especially distasteful by Vegeta''s actions of calling Frieza over. While they were arguing, Dende had run around the whole village and healed all the injured Namekians. "Go! Bring the Dragon Balls back. Take the Dragon Radar and look for the last Dragon Ball." Raditz took out the Dragon Radar which he had borrowed a few months ago and forgot to return. "What about you, uncle Raditz?" Gohan asked. "I''ll stay, Frieza is after me after all." Raditz said calmly while feeling excited. "I''m staying!" Gohan said with determination. "I''m also want to fight Frieza!" Goku said excitedly. "I''ll make Frieza pay for killing my people!" Piccolo clenched his fists. Seeing their determination, Raditz shifted his gaze to the rest of the team. "Alright, I''ll go." Krillin was a responsible man and volunteered. "I''ll also go." Chiaotzu said. He had felt the gap in their abilities since their training at King Kai''s place. "I''ll defend my home planet." Nail said. "Nail you should bring the villagers away, Frieza is really strong, our fight will bring many casualties if they remain here." Piccolo said. "...Alright. I''ll bring them to Grand Elder Moori." Nail went silent for a moment before nodding. "Dende, you should go with Nail." Piccolo looked at Dende. "No! I can heal everyone! Grand Elder Moori told me to help heal everyone." Dende shook his head. He had seen so many Namekian corpses strewn across the village and felt sad. The main reason he remained was because he wants to bury them. Nail gathered all the villagers and escorted them away. Krillin and Chiaotzu flew ahead of Nail to bring the Dragon Ball back first. Yamcha and Tien Shinhan stayed and had great confidence due to their newly gained strength or the lack of hardships. "Ahahaha! You''re all going to die!" Vegeta laughed. "If you don''t shut up, I''ll end you!" Piccolo was pissed. Vegeta still had a sneer on his face, but he wasn''t dumb so he kept silent. After a while, Raditz'' team could sense a large Ki approaching quickly. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "My goodness!" Yamcha and Tien Shinhan were shocked by the shocking volume of Ki. "Did Frieza improve? Or did he already transform into his 2nd form?" Raditz felt Frieza''s Ki was much stronger than the 500,000 something battle power of his first form. It was at least a third of his Ki. "I really overestimated myself. I''ll stay in the back." Yamcha sighed and moved away. "Me too..." Tien Shinhan clenched his fists as if to reaffirm his determination to become even stronger. Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Dende moved a fair distance away and hid behind a valley. Frieza was indeed not in his first form. Knowing that Raditz had a battle power over 600,000 from his report when Raditz had killed the Ginyu Force, Frieza had immediately transformed into his 2nd form. Frieza with his over 2 meter tall big body and two black horns growing on his head landed in front of Raditz''s group with his usual arrogance. "Raditz! Oh, what do we have here? Another Saiyan runt." Frieza scrutinized the group and noticed Gohan''s tail and exclaimed. "And you, you look oddly familiar... That''s right! You look just like that Saiyan who rebelled against me before I destroyed Planet Vegeta." Frieza looked closely at Goku and remembered. "You! You killed my father! And mother!!" Goku said angrily. He remembered that Raditz had said their father looked exactly like him. "Ah... Yes, you two look similar. Raditz, that is your little brother, Kakarot no?" Frieza smiled leisurely as if he did not notice Goku''s anger directed at him. "Let me handle him." Piccolo hand blocked Goku. Bang! Bang! Piccolo took off his white turban and cape, both of them let out loud noises as they hit the ground. They obviously weighted quite a lot. Piccolo stretched his neck left and right, and cracked his knuckles. "Did I hear that right? You? A Namekian want to challenge me?" Frieza said in disbelief as if he could not believe a weakling could possibly have the courage to challenge the great Lord Frieza. "Frieza! I''ll make you pay for spilling the blood of my people!" Piccolo shouted in anger and took a step forward. "Uncle Piccolo! I''ll fight with you!" Gohan also stepped forward. "Goku really likes to fight alone, huh." Raditz thought. Goku did not step up to fight together with the two. Both Vegeta and Nappa looked at Piccolo in contempt. Although Nail was stronger than them, what happened to him? They simply transformed into Great Ape and trashed him. What could a Namekian possibly amount to? They were only looking forward to the battle between Raditz and Frieza. "Haaaah!" Both Piccolo and Gohan stopped suppressing their Ki and released their full power. Beep! Beep! Beep! Frieza''s scouter beeped and scanned both of them. "800,000 and 500,000. If that''s all you''ve got, then I''m sorely disappointed." Frieza said condescendingly. "What?!" Both Vegeta and Nappa looked at Frieza in disbelief. If anyone else had said that, they would not have believed them. But it was Frieza who had said it, so how could it be false? "What?" Raditz was also shocked by their high battle power. Goku did not look surprised, or maybe that was just his laid back personality. Piccolo rushed forward and punched Frieza''s face. The sudden attack had taken him by surprise, sending him flying several meters away. Piccolo flew ahead of Frieza, clasped his hands and intended to follow up with a double axe handle attack, but Frieza had already recovered from the earlier attack. Frieza quickly dodged Piccolo''s attack and counterattacked with a kick to his gut. Piccolo managed to shift his body slightly, the kick missed his gut but sent him crashing toward the ground. Piccolo reacted quickly and flipped his body and kicked off from the ground and saved himself from crashing headfirst to the ground. "Heh!" Piccolo grinned at Frieza. "Dirty Namekian, what are you smiling for." Frieza got ticked by Piccolo''s smile. "This!" Piccolo suddenly activated 2x Kaioken and burst forth, in a flash, he head-butted Frieza''s chin and followed up with a left hook to Frieza''s face. Frieza spat out blood, and before he could recover, Piccolo had appeared above him, with his hands clasped, he attacked with a double axe handle, smashing Frieza''s head hard and sent him crashing down to the ground. Bang! Frieza''s crash formed a small crater. Piccolo put his two hands forward and shot out a large Special Beam Cannon. "Masenko!" Gohan did not miss the chance and also attacked Frieza. It seems that having Piccolo train him had helped. Gohan did not mindlessly rush in and disrupt Piccolo''s rhythm and waited for an opening before blasting Frieza with his strongest attack. Since Gohan''s Ki was much lower than Frieza''s his normal attacks might not even go through his defense. Bang! Frieza let out a burst of Ki, an explosive wave repelled all the rubbles that had buried him underground and sent them flying. "Damned vermins! I''ll let you know this is only my first transformation. I still got another two transformations! Each time I, Frieza transform, my power increases substantially." Frieza looked at Piccolo in contempt. "What?" Piccolo was only able to do some superficial damage to Frieza, only his Special Beam Cannon did decent damage to Frieza. "Feel honored, you will be the first ones to ever see this form, I shall grant you all the feeling of terror." Frieza swept his gaze over everyone on scene and said arrogantly. "Well, it''s not like I can just say Frieza has 3 transformations and his battle power is 120 million just like that..." Raditz after seeing Piccolo''s surprised face, thought it would be hard for him to explain where his knowledge came from if he said all that. "Haaaah!" Frieza clenched his fists and contracted his muscles hard. His Ki was rapidly increasing. Spikes grew out of his back, his shoulder pads widened and his head protruded until it was oval-shaped. "What?! Damn it! Damn it!" Vegeta clenched his fists in anger. His plan was to make Raditz fight it out with Frieza, and then after both were either killed or badly injured, he would then sweep up the battlefield and kill them all. Then you would usurp the Frieza Force and become the new Emperor of the Universe. But how could he have imagined that all of Raditz''s teammates were so ridiculously strong? What''s worse was that Frieza was way stronger than he had expected, his plan was for naught, they would all be killed by Frieza. And he would continue to be a dog for Frieza. "Interestingly, his injuries all healed up as if he had never gotten any." Raditz saw all the blood, bruises and wounds on Frieza''s body had disappeared. His Ki that had taken a dip from his injuries had seemed to fully restored after transforming, now Frieza''s Ki was about equal to Raditz. 33 Fight 1 Frieza dashed up to Piccolo in an instant and sent him flying with a knee kick. "Damn!" Piccolo flew up, trying to create some distance. But Frieza easily overtook him and blocked his way. "Well, well well... Did you miss me?" Frieza said in sarcasm. "Hiya!" Frieza pointed two fingers at Piccolo. Invisible compressed shockwaves the size of two-finger thick blasted almost instantly on Piccolo''s body "Hiya! Hiya! Hiya!" Frieza alternated with his left and right hands, painting Piccolo''s body with numerous bloody wounds. "Ah! Ugh! Uff! Ah!" Piccolo grunted painfully. He had already pushed his Kaioken to 3x, but Frieza''s attack was just too fast. Just a point from his fingers and he would instantly be hit. Frieza was pointing so fast as if he was firing a machine gun. Purple blood rained down from the sky like a water fountain. Frieza''s finger-pointing attacks were just too fast, in just a few mere seconds, Piccolo was already grievously wounded. "STOP!" Gohan''s Ki suddenly shot up and he dashed ferociously at Frieza. Frieza dodged Gohan''s kick and jumped away. Gohan turned and dashed ahead of Frieza. "Now you''re going to die! Full Power!" Gohan shouted in anger and put his palms forward and a large Ki beam shot toward Frieza. Like a balloon connected to a pipe inflating, the Ki beam''s front suddenly inflated in the shape of a ball from the huge influx of Ki. The Ki Ball at the end of the Ki Beam grew to several times Frieza''s size and came crushing at on him. "AAAH!" The Ki Ball at the end of the beam sent Frieza flying into the sky, the huge concentration of Ki was burning his skin. After flying until they turned into a small black dot, the Ki ball exploded. A gigantic explosion burst high in the sky, even sending some shockwaves blowing on Raditz''s team. Gohan as if he had wrung out every single drop of his energy, was all exhausted and could no longer fly fell down from the sky. "Gohan!" Goku hurriedly flew up and caught Gohan. "Gohan, I''m proud of you!" Piccolo flashed a smile at Gohan. "Impossible! How could that twerp kill Frieza?! Don''t tell me he became a Super Saiyan?!" Vegeta yelled madly. Even he thought Frieza was killed from that strong explosion. Nappa stared slack-jawed at the exhausted Gohan resting on Goku''s bosom. At last, he had a small grin on his face after focusing his gaze on Gohan''s tail. As if he was proud that Gohan was a Saiyan. "Ahahaha! Frieza is dead! Vegeta, we are free now!" Nappa laughed out. "Holy crap! How is that possible!" Raditz had not expected Gohan to be able to contribute anything in this fight against Frieza since his battle power only reached 500,000. Although he knows that Gohan''s strength increases by a lot whenever he rages. He had now experienced it first hand just how amazingly strong Gohan''s potential was. For a brief moment, Gohan''s Ki had gone way beyond Raditz''s Ki. "Ahahaha! Gohan you did it!" Yamcha and Tien Shinhan along with Dende came running to them in a celebratory mood. "Mr. Piccolo! I''ll heal you right away!" Dende hurriedly ran up to Piccolo and after a few moments, Piccolo was completely healed up. "Thanks, Dende." Piccolo thanked. Dende gave a smile and ran up to Gohan and healed and restored his energy. "Thank you, Dende." Gohan thanked politely. Everyone else believed Frieza was dead and was cheering. But Raditz looked at the sky doubtfully. "Can Frieza be so easily killed?" Raditz muttered. He knew just how incredibly strong Frieza is. Although while he hadn''t transformed into his final transformation, he seemed to be able to heal himself up whenever he transforms. As long as he manages to survive Gohan''s attack, he would be able to fully recover from his grievous injuries. After a few minutes, the ground suddenly started shaking. "W-what''s going on?" Yamcha yelled in confusion. "T-this huge Ki! Impossible! How can it be so big!" Piccolo said in disbelief. "Frieza survived! And he''s transforming into his final form!" Raditz felt Frieza''s Ki increase at an explosive rate. After a while, Frieza''s Ki stabilized and the ground stopped shaking. "Uaah!" Gohan grunted in pain. Before they could make sense of the situation, Frieza''s pink-colored finger beam had already bored a hole through Gohan''s chest. Gohan fell weakly to the ground with blood flowing out of the finger wide hole in his chest. "Damned monkey! I almost died there!" Frieza said in hate. "Gohan!" Goku dashed to Gohan and held him. "Gohan! Hold on!" Goku covered Gohan''s wound, but his heart had been pierced. Gohan''s Ki was dropping at an alarming rate. "Gohan!" Dende hurriedly arrived in front of Gohan and put his palms on the wound. After a few moments, Gohan had healed up, the hole in his chest was gone, his heart as well was fully recovered. "Frieza!!" Goku finally let out his anger and dashed toward Frieza. Piccolo was also about to dash to Frieza, but Raditz hurriedly held him down. "Damned Frieza!" Raditz clenched his fists while feeling the rage emerge from within him. "I had always thought it was hard to get angry. I didn''t expect to hold such close feelings for anyone in this world. But to think, only in this kind of situation did I realize that I really like Gohan." Raditz did not think he would so quickly develop such strong feelings for the people in the Dragon Ball World that he would feel such anger toward Frieza after he almost killed Gohan. Because Raditz knew the whole storyline and with the Dragon Balls capable of reviving people. He really did not expect to also be like Goku and Piccolo and want to rush up and fight Frieza in such a hotblooded manner. The moment Raditz saw Gohan spit blood and the blood spurt out from his heart. It was like time slowed down. Like a movie clip rolling, Raditz saw the memories he and Gohan had spent together. That time they went into the mountains and picked up various fruits, berries, and nuts to eat. That time they chased after a big giant dinosaur for dinner. That time they flew around the forest playing with Icarus, the purple dragon. That time they went fishing in the river with their tails. That time they went swimming in the river and started a splash war. That time when Raditz praised Gohan and gently ruffled his hair, and Gohan''s radiant smile. Reminiscing about the memories he spent with this lovable little kid, Raditz felt like he was starting to integrate with the Dragon Ball World. In the past, Raditz had always felt like he was viewing the world and the people there with a 3rd person perspective. As if there was an invisible wall separating his interactions with the rest of the people in this world. But before he had realized it, he had already become a part of this world. Meanwhile, Goku was fighting Frieza in a frenzy. Goku had immediately activated 20x Kaioken and crashed into Frieza, the sudden burst of speed had taken Frieza by surprise. Considering that Frieza could not sense Ki, he could not react in time and was sent flying upwards. "20x Kaioken Kamehameha!" Goku knew he was much weaker than Frieza, but even if he could not kill Frieza, he wanted to give Frieza an unforgettable moment. Unfortunately, while the 20x Kaioken Kamehameha did hurt Frieza, it only slightly bruised him. "Haaah" Frieza tore the Kamehameha in half and let the energy within freely explode. After two banging explosions, Frieza disappeared from his position and appeared in front of Goku. "Dirty monkeys! Every one of you is stronger than the other! I can''t let this continue! Before you turn into a Super Saiyan, I''ll exterminate you all!." Frieza shouted. Frieza kicked Goku and sent him crashing to the ground. Just as Goku had emerged from the rubbles, Frieza crashed into Goku''s back with a headbutt and sent Goku spinning in the air until he crashed into a mountain. "30x Kaioken!" Just as Frieza was about to stomp Goku, Goku suddenly jumped up and appeared behind Frieza and kicked Frieza''s back. Frieza crashed into a mountain, but before Goku managed to continue his combo, Frieza had already got up and the two started sending punches at each other. None connected and were intercepted by the other''s punches. After throwing many punches, Goku switched to a right hook, Frieza blocked the attack with his arm and sent a punch to Goku''s face. Goku dodged by bending his neck to his right. Goku immediately sent a punch at Frieza''s head which Frieza dodged by bending his back and neck. The two continued dodging and attacking, but few attacks connected, most were dodged or parried. Goku could barely handle 20x Kaioken, by using 30x Kaioken, Goku could feel his strength draining him and his body hurting more and more. In the end, Goku was weakened and unable to dodge an attack from Frieza, crashed heavily on the ground, forming a crater. Frieza jumped into the crater and wrapped his tail around Goku''s neck. "What''s wrong? All out of strength already?" Frieza said sarcastically and pulled up Goku, with Goku''s back facing him, Frieza punched Goku''s back again and again. "Ah! Ugh!" Goku grunted and spat out blood. After punching a few more times, Frieza got bored of punching Goku like a punching bag and flung him at a mountain. With a bang, Goku''s body crashed into the mountain wall and carved out a deep depression. "It''s time to end this." Frieza shot out a barrage of Ki blasts targeting Goku. Bang! Bang! Bang! The mountain exploded into rubbles and buried Goku beneath. Goku''s Ki had dropped to a really low level and he couldn''t even get out of the rubble on his own anymore. "DAD!!!" Gohan dashed into the rubble and blasted away the rubbles. "This twerp! How is he still alive?!" Frieza was sure his earlier Death Beam would kill Gohan. But due to the distance, he had not been able to observe Dende heal Gohan. Gohan''s loud yell shook awake Raditz who had been in a daze. "Goku''s Ki is really weak. How long was I... out of it?" Raditz saw Gohan dig out Goku and carry him on his back. "What a weird sensation..." Raditz felt an indescribable feeling throughout his body. It was as if he had been observing the world from a screen earlier, and now he was experiencing everything in person. It was hard to describe, but it felt like a sticky layer stuck onto his skin and his perceptions heightened. "This time I''ll make sure you stay dead!" Frieza did not intend to let Gohan leave and prepared to shot a Death Beam and truly kill Gohan this time. Swish! Raditz teleported in front of Frieza and caught his right wrist that was pointing forward. "You''ll have to get past me first." Raditz said sternly. Raditz had already activated 20x Kaioken in order to match Frieza''s 50% power and managed to grab hold of Frieza''s wrist. After pulling back and forth a few times, Frieza gradually increased his strength, overwhelmed Raditz''s grip and freed his arm.

Frieza still looked arrogant, but his voice was slightly shaky. Raditz''s strength had surprised Frieza when he was using 50% of his power. 34 Fight 2 With Raditz blocking Frieza, Gohan managed to carry Goku over to Dende and have Goku healed up. Like usual for a Saiyan, Goku''s Ki shot up after experiencing a Zenkai. But except for Raditz''s teammates and Dende who could sense Ki. Neither Frieza, Vegeta nor Nappa could sense the huge increase in Goku''s Ki. But after Frieza had noticed Gohan''s abnormality, to appear completely unharmed after taking his Death Beam, he had clearly paid great attention to their movements. "So that''s how he recovered!" Frieza said in understanding. Having clearly seen how the severely injured Goku had now jumped back up his feet as if he was unharmed. If not for Goku''s clothes had turned into rags, no one would have known Goku had been reduced to a mess earlier. "Dende! Get back!" Raditz shouted without turning his head. Knowing what had happened to Dende in the original storyline after Frieza realized Dende''s ability to heal. Raditz did not want Dende to die. Dende felt Frieza''s hostile stare, hurriedly complied. He ran a fair distance away and hid behind a cliff. "You are strong, one may even say exceptional. To be able to match half my power." Frieza said arrogantly and was not in a hurry to fight. "What?! He must be bluffing! That can''t be just half of his power!" Piccolo had a sharp hearing, could hear Frieza''s words from afar. "What do you say, we have a warm-up? It''s been a long time since I had any real exercise." Frieza said. "You''re still as arrogant as ever." Raditz said. "That''s because you are still not a worthy opponent." Frieza said nonchalantly and silently added in his mind "And you won''t get a chance to become a Super Saiyan, for I will make sure you die here." Raditz dashed forward and sent a punch, Frieza dodged by jumping up and sent a kick to Raditz''s head. Raditz bent backward and avoided the kick, not stopping, Raditz continued bending more and pushed his arms against the ground. Like doing a kick up, but Raditz used the force to kick with both his feet at Frieza. This unexpected move took Frieza by surprise and connected, sending Frieza hurtling backward before Frieza stamped down his feet and broke the momentum after drawing two long ditches. Raditz rushed up and sent a flurry of kicks, which Frieza dodged and did a leg sweep. Raditz jumped up but was slapped in the face by Frieza''s tail. "I can do that too!" Raditz jumped forward and swept his leg, Frieza jumped up but Raditz''s tail coiled around Frieza''s left leg and tugged him back down. Raditz had wanted to punch between Frieza''s legs, but he did not see anything there so he aimed for Frieza''s gut instead. Frieza''s other leg kicked forward and blocked Raditz''s punch, then sent his tail slapping toward Raditz again. Raditz let go of Frieza''s leg and jumped backward to dodge the tail slap. The two continued to make numerous exchanges lightning-fast, but neither side could do any serious harm to the other. "This really is a warm-up, huh." Raditz said with a wry smile. "Those two are really monsters!" Piccolo exclaimed. "Big brother isn''t doing any damage to Frieza. It looks like Frieza really is only using half his power." Goku said. "But it''s just a warm-up for them. Don''t forget Raditz still has the Kaioken." Yamcha said. Because neither side was launching Energy attacks and only exchanging physical attacks, Yamcha could deduce that Frieza and Raditz were only having a warm-up. "Although it''s a warm-up, Raditz is already using 20x Kaioken." Tien Shinhan said gravely. As Tien Shinhan also was a user of Kaioken, it wasn''t difficult for him to notice Raditz had Kaioken activated. "What?! Oh no! What do we do? Krillin, Chiaotzu and that future guy better hurry and collect the Dragon Balls!" Yamcha said worriedly and hoped the others would hurry up and collect the remaining Dragon Balls so they could wish for everyone except for Frieza and his men to relocate to Earth. Frieza and Raditz continued their lightning-fast exchanges for another 10 minutes. Raditz was sweating quite a lot from having his physical strength drained from his continuous use of 20x Kaioken. If not for having mastered 300x gravity, Raditz would not have been able to keep using 20x Kaioken for so long. "Heheheh, I suppose that''s enough of a warm-up." Frieza said with a grin. "Hahaha!" Raditz was excited to continue the battle. The earlier warm-up had given him countless benefits. With his Saiyan physique imprinting all the battle experiences, he would later be able to improve his power once he goes training, even without continuing his fight with Frieza. Raditz was truly looking forward to the battle with an even stronger Frieza. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. Frieza''s speed increased, he dashed forward and headbutted Raditz right in the face, yet Raditz was not able to react in time. "Heheh!" Frieza grinned after seeing Raditz''s nose bleed. Frieza suddenly appeared behind Raditz and punched his back. After Raditz stumbling forward a few steps, Frieza dashed forward and swept his legs at Raditz''s shaky legs. Raditz fell to the ground but quickly pushed himself back up only to be elbowed in the gut. "Aah!" Raditz crouched down and held his stomach in pain. Frieza arrogantly waited for Raditz to recover and did not continue his attacks. "Damn it!" Raditz sent a flurry of kicks and punches at Frieza, but they were easily dodged. Frieza grinned and slapped Raditz''s face with his tail. Frieza was toying with Raditz, he kicked him down, punched him a few times and waited for him to get up again with an amused smile. "Damn you! 30x Kaioken!" Raditz was angry for being toyed by Frieza like that. Even though his stamina had been largely drained from using 20x Kaioken, and even though his body was strong, 30x Kaioken would still wreck his body. Raditz flew forward horizontally with his two fists raised straight forward and crashed into Frieza''s stomach. "Guh!" Frieza was flung away from the strong momentum and spat out blood. Raditz dashed ahead and intercepted Frieza''s flight course, with both his hands clasped, Raditz slammed down on Frieza''s head with a double axe handle attack. Bang! Splash! Frieza crashed a cliff and continued crashing down and fell into the ocean. "Ka... Me... Ha... Me... Ha!!" A blue Ki ball rotated at high speed between Raditz''s cupped hands, once Raditz aimed forward, the ball shot forward and extended into a long Ki beam. Raditz sent a 30x Kaioken Kamehameha aimed at Frieza. Even though he could not see Frieza, he had locked onto Frieza''s Ki and aimed the Kamehameha accurately at Frieza. A thick Ki beam wider than a palm shot straight into the water, soon as if it had hit something, a large explosion occurred underwater. The ground rumbled and shook fiercely. While huge amounts of water pillars shoot straight up to the skies. Without taking a moment of rest. Raditz pointed the two fingers of his right hand on his forehead. Raditz mustered up all the Ki in his body and concentrated on charging the Special Beam Cannon. The air around Raditz seem to stagnate, an incredibly strong and concentrated Ki that appeared to be on Raditz''s two fingers was still increasing at an unbelievable rate. "That''s my Special Beam Cannon!" Piccolo shouted in shock after sensing the strong concentration of Ki between Raditz''s two fingers. "Too bad my Ki control is lacking. Otherwise, I would charge it even more." Sensing the Energy between his two fingers almost go out of control, Raditz pointed his two fingers aimed at Frieza who had yet to surface from the water. A two-finger wide beam shot forward in a spiral path like a drill into the water. This time there was no shocking rumbling explosion or shaking. "Ahahaha!" Raditz laughed weakly. Raditz sensed that Frieza''s Ki took a dip, his energy attacks had connected without exception. 35 Fight 3 "D-don''t tell me!? Has Raditz become a Super Saiyan?!" Having felt the shocking aftereffect of Raditz''s Energy attacks rocked the land, Vegeta was first shocked silly for a long while before recovering his mind. "Damn it! Damn it!" Vegeta slammed the ground with his fists continuously in anger. "Why! Why is everyone stronger than me?! I''m the Saiyan Prince! Only I am qualified to become a Super Saiyan from the legend!" Vegeta swept his gaze over Piccolo, Goku, Gohan and then stopped his gaze at Raditz. "I''ll surpass you all! Just wait!" Vegeta gnashed his teeth.

After the water fell back down into the ocean, Frieza stood in the sky where the water pillar had been. "Filthy Saiyan! That almost killed me!" Frieza said in hate. His left eye was squinting with traces of blood. His left shoulder had a fist-sized round bloody wound still bleeding, his left arm had a fist-sized half-circle wound gouged out of his lower arm. Presumably, Frieza had used his left arm to block Raditz''s Special Beam Cannon, thus the beam had not managed to fully drill through Frieza''s left shoulder. What Raditz did not know was that his earlier Kamehameha attack had caused Frieza to raise both his arms and cross them in front of his to shield against the Kamehameha. And the Special Beam Cannon had come just after the Kamehameha while Frieza still had his arms shielding him in front. Otherwise, the Special Beam Cannon would have done much more damage by boring a hole through Frieza''s shoulder. "I won''t hold back anymore! I''ll kill you!!" Frieza raged. He was especially angry about his left arm that had almost been cleaved in two pieces. His fists clenched hard, his muscles bulged and his blood vessels almosts popped. His Ki was rapidly increasing at an incredible speed. The ground shook fiercely, pebbles and dust particles were raised from the sheer amount of Ki emitted by Frieza. "Unbelievable!" Piccolo shockingly stared at the commotion. "So strong!" Goku clenched his fists in excitement. Yamcha felt his legs go soft. He really regretted staying behind, oh how he wished to follow Krillin and Chiaotzu to search for the Dragon Balls instead. Tien Shinhan stared solemnly at Frieza. Finally, Frieza''s Ki stabilized and the levitating pebbles and dust particles fell back down to the ground. "Die! Die! Die!" Frieza blasted a barrage of Ki Blasts at Raditz. He was no longer in the mood to toy around after receiving such a big injury from Raditz. "Shit!" Raditz jumped backward and dodged a few Ki blasts, but there were just too many Ki blasts aimed at him and his surrounding area all randomly. There was no place for Raditz to dodge. Boom! Boom! Boom! Raditz got blasted by numerous Ki blast explosions and sent hurtling backward and crashed into a cliff. Yet, endless Ki blasts came homing in on Raditz, in no time, the cliff was blasted apart into rubbles. "Ugh!" Raditz grunted. The barrage of Ki blasts hit him hard. After Frieza released his full power, the speed and power of his attacks had largely increased. Raditz spat out a mouthful of blood and got buried by the rubbles. The injuries he received was so heavy his Kaioken was undone. Frieza dashed forward and stomped hard at the rubbles. A shockwave blasted away the rubbles, while the remaining rubbles were reduced to tiny pebbles and dust particles. Raditz''s body was revealed under the dust. "How dare you ruing my arm!" Frieza said in hate. His tail wrapped around Raditz''s neck and pulled him up. Bang! Bang! Bang! Frieza clenched his right hand and punched again and again in Raditz''s gut. "Guah!" With each hit, Raditz spat out blood and grunted in pain. "Big brother!" Goku shouted and dashed toward Frieza. "Uncle Raditz!" Gohan also dashed out. Piccolo also rushed out, but he took a turn and went from the side to attack Frieza from another direction. Goku''s fly ambush sent Frieza rolling. The grip of his tail holding Raditz''s neck loosened and Raditz fell to the ground. "Damned monkey!" Frieza got up and cursed. Just as Frieza was about to attack Goku, he was met by Ki blasts from two directions. Bang! Bang! Bang! Piccolo and Gohan worked together and shot Ki blasts from the opposite directions. "I''m surrounded on all sides by irritating insects!" Frieza raged. Although the attacks barely did anything to him, the explosions did distract and annoy him. "Kikoho!" At some point, Tien Shinhan had appeared above Frieza with his hands in a triangle shape aimed at Frieza. A triangle-shaped Ki attack carved hit Frieza and carved out a triangle-shaped hole below. Tien Shinhan''s Ki was just too weak to hurt Frieza, but the Kikoho had strong momentum and pushed Frieza crashing down into the triangle-shaped hole. Goku took the opportunity and teleported Raditz over to Dende. "Damn you filthy insect!" Frieza yelled and flew out of the triangular-shaped hole. "Kikoho!" Tien Shinhan sent yet another Kikoho and pushed Frieza back into the triangular-shaped hole. "Bastard!" A moment later, Frieza cursed out and flew yet again out of the hole. "Kikoho!" Tien Shinhan was sweating profusely and barely squeezed out his last attack before slowly gliding down from the sky. The Kikoho yet again sent Frieza tumbling down into the accursed triangular-shaped hole. "Kamehameha!" Yamcha followed up with a Kamehameha beam shot into the triangle-shaped hole. "I''ll heal you immediately, Sir Raditz!" Dende put his hands outspread on Raditz''s chest. A moment later Raditz had fully healed and jumped back up on his feet. The sudden momentum from his Zenkai brought a raging wind blasting outward with Raditz in the center. "Such power!" Raditz clenched his fists and felt the newfound power coursing through his body. Suddenly the sky darkened and rumbles from thunderstrikes could be heard. "They did it! They summoned Shenron!" Gohan shouted gleefully. Except for Nappa and Vegeta who were clueless to why the sky had darkened, everyone else had understood the real reason and cheered. "This is great! You guys did it!" King Kai''s cheerful voice echoed in everyone''s mind. "Krillin! Hurry and wish for everyone to be relocated to Earth!" King Kai said. "Wait! I''m staying!" Raditz''s eyes bulged. He had just gotten healed up and gotten even stronger after the Zenkai. He was not willing to just leave like that, not to mention, leaving a huge hidden danger. Frieza is also very talented if he is given time to train, who knows if even Future Trunks can handle him by then? With their current enmity, Frieza was sure to look for Raditz and the others for revenge. "What?! Are you out of your mind, Raditz?! You almost died just now, and you still want to fight?" King Kai exclaimed in disbelief. "You think Frieza will let us go after all we have done? Instead of bringing the battle to Earth, we might as well finish it here!" Raditz said. "Raditz is right." Piccolo nodded. "I''m also staying! I still want to fight Frieza!" Goku said. "Then I''m also staying!" Gohan said. "Hahaha... I''m sorry guys, Frieza is way beyond my league." Yamcha apologized. "I hate to say this, but I won''t be of any help either." Tien Shinhan clenched his fists and teeth. "I''m staying as well. I will show Frieza the wrath of all the Namekians he has slain!" Piccolo said angrily. "If we all work together, we can surely beat Frieza! Besides, there is also the Super Saiyan mister as well!" Gohan said positively. "If Mr. Goku, Mr. Raditz, Mr. Piccolo, and Gohan are all staying, I''m staying as well. Hang on guys! I''m on my way!" Trunks voice sounded in everyone''s mind. King Kai had relayed everyone''s voices since the beginning. "These insects just won''t rest until I''ve been pushed to the very limits of my patience!" Frieza''s veins were popping out from sheer anger. Frieza had pent up so much anger from everyone''s distracting attacks, and especially Tien Shinhan''s Kikoho. Then Yamcha''s last attack became Frieza''s target for venting. Frieza made a grabbing motion with his right hand toward Yamcha. "Ahh!" Yamcha suddenly got restricted by an invisible force and could no longer move his body. Frieza pulled up his right arm and clenched it. Yamcha simultaneously got pulled into the air and shouted "Aaahh!" before he was engulfed in an explosion. "Yamcha! Nooo!" Goku, Gohan and Tien Shinhan reacted fiercely. After the explosion settled, only dust fell down. Yamcha''s body was nowhere to be seen. "Friezaaaa!!" Goku raged and dashed toward Frieza. "Damn it!" Tien Shinhan cursed and slammed the ground. "You killed Mr. Yamchaaa!!" Gohan was also enraged and dashed toward Frieza. His Ki was increasing at an explosive rate. Raditz had a wry smile, he did not really feel much anger from seeing Yamcha die. Taking a look at Piccolo, he felt relieved. He wasn''t the only one reacting in this way. Just as Tien Shinhan continued banging the ground, he suddenly flashed and disappeared. Dende was the next one to disappear. Soon, Nappa and Vegeta also disappeared. The sky turned clear and bright once again. Krillin had finished his wish, even the Namekian Dragon Balls were relocated to Earth. Unfortunately, the Namekian Dragon Balls could only wish back one person with each wish. Otherwise, they would have wished for all the Namekians to be revived before relocating everyone to Earth. Only Raditz, Goku, Gohan, Piccolo and Frieza was left on the scene. "What? What happened? What did you do?" Frieza looked at the remaining people in askance. 36 Fight 4 Unfortunately, Goku and Gohan was not in the mood to chat with Frieza and continued dashing toward Frieza. While Piccolo and Raditz was not the type of people to disclose important information such as the Dragon Balls. Gohan''s Ki increased by so much, but unfortunately, he did not master Kaioken and no matter how high his Ki was raised, it could not beat Goku''s Ki when he activated 20x Kaioken. Goku arrived first and threw a punch at Frieza''s head, but it was dodged by Frieza swinging his head to the side. Frieza followed up with a kick to Goku''s chin, sending him flying upward. "No matter, you''ll be the next." Frieza sneered and charged a half meter wide pink Ki ball in his right palm and shot it at Goku. The pink Ki ball crashed into Goku and exploded. Grey smoke filled the area Goku stood. "Dad!" Gohan stopped in his tracks and stared into the grey smoke worriedly. "You''re next!" Frieza sneered and appeared in front of Gohan. "Masenk- Ugh!" Before Gohan managed to launch his attack, Frieza had kneed Gohan in the gut, interrupting his attack. "Gohan! Get out of there!" Goku''s voice came from Piccolo''s side. He had actually teleported away just as the pink Ki ball exploded. "What?!" Frieza turned his head in surprise upon hearing Goku''s voice. "That sneaky monkey! How did he get there?" Frieza looked at Goku who stood far away at the sideline of the battlefield, a distance even he, Frieza could not cover in such a short amount of time. "Got it, dad!" Gohan quickly turned around and dashed away. "Where do you think you''re going!" Frieza disappeared from his position and appeared in front of Gohan''s path, blocking his retreat. Frieza pointed his finger and a pink finger beam penetrated Gohan''s left shoulder. "Aaugh!" Gohan grunted in pain with his eyes squinting. "Die!" Frieza sneered and pointed his finger toward Gohan''s head. "Gohan!" Piccolo and Goku prepared to teleport while yelling in despair. Bang! Raditz appeared right next to Frieza and sent a fly kick to his head. Frieza was sent hurtling away. "Goku! Prepare the Spirit Bomb!" Raditz shouted. "Got it!" Goku took a deep breath and put his arms up with his palms facing the sky. "Everyone! Please share some of your energy!" Goku asked. "Let''s see if we can use numbers to bully and kill Frieza." Raditz mumbled in excitement. None of them could transform into a Super Saiyan. And none of them was a match to Frieza, but what if they teamed up? After Raditz, Goku and Gohan had experienced a Zenkai, they were even stronger now. "That little Namekian healed you, right?" Frieza said hatefully. "That''s right, but you won''t have the chance to kill him anymore." Raditz said. Dende had already been relocated to Earth after all. Raditz and Frieza sent a flurry of kicks and punched at each other, even though Frieza could only use his right hand, 20x Kaioken wasn''t enough and soon Raditz was sent flying away. "Damn it! 30x Kaioken!" Although Raditz could keep up 30x Kaioken longer than Goku, it would still damage his body over time. Bang! Bang! Bang! Flurries of kicks and punches were sent from both sides. But they were fighting equally, both sides parried each other''s attack with their own. Each time their fists or knee his the other''s fist or knee, a shockwave exploded out and shook the air and clouds. "Heheh!" Raditz grinned. He was able to barely fight equally against Frieza now with 30x Kaioken. Even though it was only with Frieza having one hand handicap. This still showed just how much his power had increased from his recent Zenkai. After fighting for a few minutes, Frieza turned madder the longer they fought. "Damned Saiyan! How is this possible! How can you match me, Frieza?! Don''t tell me?! You''ve actually become a Super Saiyan as told by the legend?" Frieza started getting nervous. Raditz had finally become a threat to him. Even though they had fought for a few minutes and none of their quick and lightning-fast attacks connected. At most, they would brush past each other and only bruise the other''s skin a bit. Thus, even though they were covered in blood, they did not receive much damage from each other''s attacks at all. But Raditz had actually taken considerable damage from the prolonged usage of 30x Kaioken. "Haa... Haa..." Raditz started panting, his stamina running low. Although the Zenkai had given him an overall boost in power, his physical strength did not have much of an improvement, as such the 30x Kaioken was still a huge burden for Raditz. "I now finally know why they always hand the senzu beans to a non-participant..." Raditz cursed in his mind. He had naturally brought with him the senzu bean bag with 11 senzu beans left. But even though his training gi clothes were durable, the battle with Frieza was way too high level. His durable Gi clothes had long been turned into rags with numerous holes and the senzu bag had unknowingly dropped somewhere in this gigantic battlefield. It could even have dropped into the endless ocean. Raditz was getting exhausted and quickly switched to 20x Kaioken and started pulling away from Frieza. "Hohoho! You look tired!" Frieza smiled. He finally saw his chance to kill Raditz. Frieza sent a barrage of Ki blasts at Raditz. Bang! Bang! Bang! Raditz speed had lowered considerably and was unable to dodge the endless waves of Ki blasts, he could only exhaust his own Ki and sent a barrage of Ki blasts to detonate Frieza''s Ki blasts before they reached him. Numerous explosions sounded from the endless barrages of Ki blasts exploding nonstop. "Goku! Hurry up! Raditz''s stamina is dropping." Piccolo urged Goku while looking at the gigantic sphere in the planet''s atmosphere almost 50 meters wide. "It''s not yet ready! I need more time." Goku said. Grey smoke filled the area Raditz stood, even though he could not see anything, he could still lock onto the Ki blasts with his Ki sense and detonate them before they reached him. "Die!" Frieza smiled sinisterly seeing Raditz blinded by the grey smoke, he conjured a pink Destructo Disc and threw it into the grey smoke. "Oh no!" Raditz! Dodge the Destructo Disc!" Piccolo yelled in alarm. If the disc hits him, Raditz would be cut in half. "Oh shit!" Raditz remembered Frieza''s pink Destructo Discs from the anime and panicky teleported over to Frieza. Bang! Raditz send Frieza flying with a surprise attack but soon saw the pink Destructo Disc fly toward him as if it had a mind of its own.

Raditz cursed as he saw the disc close the distance to him in almost an instant. Even Super Saiyan Goku had needed to run at full speed to keep a distance away from the discs. "Block it!! 40x Kaioken!" Raditz put all his energy into the Kaioken and shot out a Ki wave containing all his Ki. Instead of shooting a Kamehameha only to have it cleaved in two, the Ki wave was very destructive. Once the Ki wave touched the pink disc, it exploded. But the distance was just too close and the gigantic explosion engulfed Raditz. Raditz couldn''t care less and had put everything into that Ki wave. Rather than get cleaved in half, he would rather get engulfed in his own attack. After the explosion subsided and the grey smoke dispersed, Raditz could be seen on his knees with his arms propping him up from lying on the ground. Raditz was in a really bad shape right now, his body had been ravaged from both inside and outside. The 40x Kaioken was beyond his ability and had badly damaged his insides, especially since his body was already damaged from the prolonged use of 30x Kaioken. Then the explosion blasted his body hard on the outside. "Uncle Raditz!" Gohan flew toward Raditz. "You should be called a cockroach, you keep escaping death time and time again." Frieza cursed Raditz, even after putting in so much effort, Raditz was yet still alive. "Stop! Don''t you dare coming closer!" Gohan spread out his arms and blocked Raditz from Frieza. "You insects keep annoying me to no ends!" Frieza raged, he kept getting disrupted whenever he was about to kill someone. "It''s ready!" Goku yelled. "Quick! Throw it now!" Piccolo yelled. Goku quickly made a throwing motion toward Frieza. "I''ve had enough! It all ends now! I hope you all enjoy sharing your fate with this planet!!" Frieza was really mad, he had fought so long and sustained so many injuries, yet he only managed to kill one insect(Yamcha). Frieza raised his finger and charged a Death ball. A black Ki ball with numerous pink lighting arcs quickly grew from the size of a ping pong ball to a volleyball. Suddenly the planet shook, Frieza turned his head up in shock. "W-what! Such a big energy ball! Damn it!!" Frieza cursed, he disregarded his badly injured left arm and pushed out both his arms to resist the gigantic over 50 meters wide Spirit Bomb falling down on him. "Hold on to me!" Piccolo suddenly appeared next to Raditz and Gohan. He grabbed Raditz and yelled for Gohan to grab him. A moment later, the trio appeared next to Goku. "Get down!" Goku yelled. Everyone complied and laid down. "This is nothing! Ah! AAAHH!" Frieza pushed against the Spirit Bomb, but ended up being pushed down. Soon, the Spirit Bomb evaporated his badly mangled left hand and continued upward until half his lower arm (where his arm was gouged out by Raditz''s Special Beam Cannon from earlier) was swallowed by the Spirit Bomb. All that was left was a stump on his left lower arm. With only one arm left, Frieza couldn''t even push the gigantic Spirit Bomb and ended up being pushed down into the ocean by the gigantic Spirit Bomb. As if an atomic bomb had detonated, a white flash blinded everyone''s eyes. Once the white light disappeared, they could only see a giant bottomless pit over 100 meters wide below the ocean. The water surged and tried to fill up the pit. Goku carried Raditz and floated in mid-air. Piccolo and Gohan were also floating nearby. Everyone smiled and landed on a small piece of land a few meters wide. The original battlefield had been completely destroyed, the giant bottomless pit and the endless ocean replaced it. "Hahaha! We did it! We defeated Frieza!" Gohan cheered. "Shall we go home?" Goku asked and prepared to teleport everyone back to Earth. "Don''t forget that Super Saiyan boy." Piccolo reminded Goku of Trunks who were nowhere to be seen, but as he had said before, he was likely on his way over. "@$&#! My senzu beans!" Raditz stared blankly at where the former battlefield had been, the land was gone. How was he supposed to find his senzu beans now? Dive into the endlessly wide ocean? 37 Fight 5 "Don''t celebrate too early. Frieza might not be dead!" Raditz reminded. He was pretty sure Frieza would survive the Spirit Bomb since that''s what the Frieza in the original storyline did. "What? Even such an incredible Spirit Bomb can''t kill Frieza?!" Piccolo was shocked. "What do we do then? I don''t think I can muster enough strength to fight Frieza... Big brother, you still got the senzu beans?" Goku asked. "No... The senzu beans fell out when I was battling Frieza earlier. And now..." Raditz''s mouth twitched and gestured Goku too look at the former battlefield, the land had disappeared now. "Piccolo, can you go get some senzu beans from Korin?" Raditz asked. "I''ve used up too much of my Ki. I won''t be able to teleport to such a large distance." Piccolo shook his head. He had already teleported quite a few times already, even though the distance wasn''t too far, it still took a lot of Ki from him. "Goku, can you?" Raditz turned his head and asked Goku. "Yeah, I got enough Ki to reach King Kai''s place, then to Earth. I''ll go now!" Goku nodded and teleported away. "Ah...! Actually, it would be safer if we all went to King Kai first..." Raditz''s mouth twitched, Goku had already left before he could start his 2nd sentence. Although King Kai could also heal, his healing ability was inferior to Dende''s. King Kai could heal but not restore their energy. At most he was able to transfer his own Ki to them, but King Kai was really weak... His Ki would not even be enough to fill even a tenth of anyone present here. "I hope Trunks arrives soon..." Raditz sighed inwardly. Although the fight with Frieza had felt long, it hadn''t even been an hour from start until now. It had only been less than 10 minutes since the Namekian Shenron(Porunga) had been summoned. While they were hopeful, the luck was not on their side. Frieza appeared sooner than they wanted. Frieza was not in good shape, he was bleeding from his left arm stump and tail stump which the Spirit Bomb had evaporated. "Frieza!" Piccolo turned his head and saw Frieza. His sharp hearing had picked up Frieza''s movements first. "Even I thought I would die from that! I, the might Frieza nearly died!"Frieza had a furious look, he pointed his finger at Raditz. "Raditz!" Piccolo pushed away Raditz who was so weak he could not even fly. No sooner, a pink finger beam shot out from Frieza''s finger and pierced through Piccolo''s chest. "AAAH!" Piccolo fell down on the ground. "Piccolo!!" Raditz had never expected Piccolo would sacrifice himself to save him. "Piccolo! Uncle Piccolo!!" Gohan with tears in his eyes shook Piccolo''s body. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "There is also this bug!" Frieza pointed his finger at Gohan. These people had constantly hindered him from killing Raditz, so he decided to get rid of them first before he took care of Raditz. "G-Gohan!" With great difficulty, Piccolo rolled over with his body, pushed down Gohan to the ground and shielded him with his own body. The finger beam aimed at Gohan pierced through and bore another hole in Piccolo''s chest, it missed Gohan''s head by a few inches. "Uwaah!" This time the finger beam also bore through Piccolo''s heart. Purple blood splattered on Gohan''s shocked face. "Piccolo! Uncle Piccolo y-you..!" Gohan asked in shock. "G-Gohan, run! Goku will be here in any minute. Just hide for a moment." Piccolo said weakly, his pulse was slowing down now that his heart was pierced. "Uncle Piccolo!" Gohan cried. "The past few months we spent together was the happiest time for me. Gohan, don''t die!" Piccolo said with a gentle smile, with tears in his eyes. "It''s you again! Filthy Namekian, you keep interfering with me!!" Frieza raged. "Since you want to die so badly, I''ll kill you first! Filthy Namekian!" Frieza made a grabbing motion at Piccolo and pulled his hand up. Piccolo was raised into the sky just like Frieza pulled up Yamcha earlier. "Gohan! Run!" Piccolo shouted. "Noo!! Stop! Stop it!!" Gohan cried out in despair. Frieza intended to kill Piccolo the same way he had killed Yamcha earlier. "Die!" Frieza sneered and paid no heed to Gohan''s demand and clenched his fist. Boom! Grey smoke engulfed Piccolo in the explosion. After the grey smoke dispersed, only dust fell down from Piccolo''s earlier position, Piccolo''s body was gone. "P-Piccolo!!" Raditz clenched his fists and gnashed his teeth. Piccolo had died to save him and Gohan. "Uncle Piccolo!!!" Gohan screamed. "AAAAAAAAAHHH!!" With tears dripping down his face, Gohan cried out in grief. A huge surge of Ki blasted out, the ground where Gohan stood was carved out into a crater. Gohan''s Ki was increasing rapidly. Clouds gathered above and thunder struck the ground. Tiny pebbles were rocking back and forth. "FRIEEEZAAAA!! I WON''T FORGIVE YOUUUU!!" Gohan jerked his head to Frieza and roared. A golden aura wrapped around Gohan''s body. His hair was pulled up and released down, then pulled up again and again. A few seconds later, his hair stayed upward. Slowly, his black hair was replaced by a golden blond color and his pupils turned blue. The pebbles that were rocking back and forth were slowly lifted above the ground, tiny dust particles also followed. Gohan''s muscles bulged and increased by 20% in muscle mass. His height grew by 2 cm. "This feeling... I''ve transformed into a Super Saiyan." Gohan looked at his hands and clenched them. Feeling the incredible amount of power coursing through his body. "What kind of change is that? Saiyans are only supposed to be able to transform into Great Apes..." Frieza looked at Gohan''s transformation in shock. If only he could sense Gohan''s Ki, he would know that Gohan was no longer inferior to Frieza in power. "Frieza... I''ll make you pay." Gohan said in a calm yet anger-filled voice. He started walking toward Frieza step by step. "A mere bug, how will you make me pay?" Frieza sneered and fired a finger beam at Gohan. Gohan merely waved his right palm and deflected the finger beam. "What?" Frieza could not believe that the weak bug he had been bullying earlier could so simply deflect his attack. "Die!" Frieza fired dozens of finger beams at Gohan this time. "It won''t work." Gohan calmly waved his right palm around and deflected all the finger beams. The dozens of finger beams scattered in the distance and small explosions sounded one after another. "Impossible! How can this runt suddenly gain such immense power?!" Frieza said in disbelief. Gohan walked step by step and ignored Frieza''s shock. Soon, he stood right in front of Frieza, facing him face to face. "I won''t believe it!" Frieza shouted angrily and punched at Gohan. "I''ll destroy you!" Gohan said. His right hand grabbed Frieza''s fist and then he kicked Frieza in the gut. "Ugh!" Frieza grunted and pulled his fist back. But Gohan held a firm grip over his fist. The two pulled back and forth in a stalemate. "Agh!" Frieza grunted saliva splattered from his lips. Gohan kicked Frieza in the gut again. "Damn you!" Frieza kicked back. Bang! Gohan raised his knee and blocked the kick. Gohan''s left shoulder had been hit by Frieza''s Death Beam earlier, his left could therefore not muster much strength. But Frieza was in a worse state, half his left forearm was gone, leaving only a stump. The same went for Frieza''s tail. With his right hand occupied, Gohan punched Frieza in the face with his left weaker arm. Bang! Bang! Bang! Gohan punched Frieza in the face again and again with his left arm. But Frieza only had one arm, could only watch as he got punched in the face time and time again. "Cough! Curse you!" Frieza cursed, despite floating in the air and kicking Gohan with both his legs, Gohan managed to parry and block all his kicks. Bang! Left with no other ways to counterattack, Frieza headbutted Gohan in the face. "Agh!" Gohan grunted blood dripped from his nose. "Death Cannon!" Frieza took the opportunity to pull away from Gohan and shot out a half meter wide pink Ki ball at Gohan. Gohan kicked away the Ki ball, it flew far away and a thunderous explosion shook the ground and sky. 38 The End of Frieza "Ka, me, ha, me... Haaa!!" Gohan returned the favor by sending a Kamehameha to Frieza. "AAAAHH!" Frieza could only receive the Kamehameha with one arm. Even though Gohan and Frieza were equal in power, Frieza only able to output Ki with one arm as opposed to Gohan who was powering the Kamehameha with both his arms. Frieza was being overwhelmed by the Kamehameha slowly but surely. The Kamehameha swallowed Frieza. After the glaring blue light that overshadowed the world dispersed, a half-dying Frieza fell to the ground. The Kamehameha had evaporated Frieza''s lower body, leaving only his upper body and right arm left. Even his left arm and shoulder stump had been completely evaporated. "P-please... H-help me..." Frieza''s Ki had dropped to the bottom. "Did you show any mercy to Mr. Yamcha? Or Uncle Piccolo? How many people have you killed as they begged for their lives? How dare you ask for mercy!" Gohan said angrily. "P-please help me..." Frieza said weakly. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU! YOU DON''T DESERVE ANY MERCY!" Gohan blasted Frieza with a Ki Wave. The Ki wave did not explode but rather evaporated everything in its path. Once the Ki wave settled, a huge gully dozens of meters long was all that remained, Frieza had been directly evaporated into dust. "Hahaha! Gohan, you did it!" Raditz had wanted to warn Gohan to not show any mercy. But Gohan did much better than Goku and knew when to show mercy. "But Uncle Piccolo and Mr. Yamcha died..." Gohan said sadly. "Don''t worry, we can use the Namekian Dragon Balls to wish them back to life." Raditz consoled. Gohan nodded and turned his head and looked at the sky. A golden dot appeared in the distance and grew in size rapidly. Trunks in his Super Saiyan Transformation landed in front of the duo. "Where are the others? Where is Frieza?" Trunks asked in confusion. "Uncle Piccolo died saving me... And Mr. Yamcha was also killed by Frieza. But I killed Frieza! I avenged them." Gohan said. "Ah! Gohan! You have. You have transformed into a Super Saiyan! As expected of Gohan." Trunks was shocked but looked at Gohan with respect. Seemingly reminiscing the Gohan from the future that was his teacher. "Yes... When Uncle Piccolo died... I became so angry I transformed." Gohan nodded sadly. After killing Frieza, all the rage left him, and only the sadness remained. The transformation turned unstable and after the golden aura flickered unstably and disappeared, Gohan reverted back to his normal state. His golden blond hair turned black again. "I wonder if I was close to transforming as well... If I wasn''t this banged up" Raditz smiled wryly. His whole body was hurting and he wasn''t able to use any Ki, he could barely even move right now. When Piccolo had pushed him away and taken the hit for him, Raditz''s heart had felt warmth. The three people Raditz had spent the most time with and felt closest with in this world were precisely Goku, Gohan, and Piccolo. When he helplessly watched Piccolo''s heart get pierced, pulled into the sky and blasted into oblivion. Raditz was so angry and wanted to just rush up and tear Frieza apart. Maybe due to the Future Gohan being his teacher. Trunks told his name to Gohan and Raditz but had them both promise not to tell anyone else. Swish! Goku suddenly appeared. "Oh! Trunks, you''re here. And where is Piccolo?" Goku asked in surprise after looking around. "Frieza came back. Piccolo died protecting us!" Raditz clenched his fists with great difficulty. "Oh, right! Big brother, here is a senzu bean." Goku upon seeing Raditz''s difficulty in moving even his arm, quickly put a senzu bean in Raditz''s mouth. "Thanks." Raditz ate the senzu bean and recovered. "So, what happened to Frieza? Did Trunks kill him?" Goku asked in curiosity. "No. It was Gohan. After transforming into a Super Saiyan. He killed Frieza." Raditz explained. "What? Gohan you managed to transform into a Super Saiyan? That''s amazing! You gotta show it to me later!" Goku said excitedly. The four of them teleported over to King Kai''s planet. "Ahahaha! I knew you could do it! Gohan! Good job! You have now become the strongest fighter in the Universe! As expected of someone I taught!" King Kai warmly welcomed them and even gave Gohan a big hug and gave Gohan plenty of praises before getting proud of himself. "Uncle Piccolo and Mr. Yamcha aren''t here?" Gohan asked. "No, unfortunately, there is no Guardian on Planet Namek to pick up their spirits. Piccolo''s and Yamcha''s spirit will have to first queue up and go through a Check-in Station governing the area covering Planet Namek and get judged. Don''t worry, I''m King Kai after all. I''ve already sent in a request for Piccolo and Yamcha to have their bodies fixed and sent to my planet." King Kai patted his chest in assurance. "Thank you, King Kai." Gohan''s mood turned better after hearing that. After Raditz asked to have his clothes fixed, they returned back to Earth. They met up with the rest at Bulma''s house. Everyone had gone to Bulma''s house after being relocated to Earth. Bulma also generously invited the Namekians to stay over at her house. Once everyone heard that Gohan had transformed into a Super Saiyan and killed Frieza, everyone except a sullen Vegeta cheered happily. The Namekians were really happy that Frieza was killed and had avenged the dead Namekians. Raditz and the team learned that since they only used one wish, they only needed to wait for 43 days before they could summon Porunga and make the other two wishes. The Namekians were really friendly and kind, they were willing to stay another 130 after they helped Raditz and their friends to revive before wishing for them to return back to Planet Namek and then another wish to restore the planet back to its former state. Everyone decided to meet up again at Bulma''s house in 43 days to use the Namekian Dragon Balls to wish Piccolo and Yamcha back to life. And since Piccolo can use Instant Transmission, he could bring Yamcha with him and teleport back to Earth on his own once he is revived. Everyone said goodbye and went their own ways. Trunks said goodbye and promised to come back in 3 years. Goku and Gohan flew home, Raditz decided to stay over and replenish his equipment. On this trip to Planet Namek, not only did he lose his senzu beans, but he also lost his capsules. Raditz felt an especially big heartache from losing 11 senzu beans. So many senzu beans had been wasted. Raditz invited Nappa to join his side, Nappa hesitated but still remained loyal to Vegeta and shook his head. As for Vegeta, just seeing the angry and hostile gaze was enough for Raditz to know better than invite Vegeta. Raditz took the only spaceship left, the last two Gravity Chambers and restocked his food rations. Since the scouter had practically lost its use, Raditz asked Bulma to build a stationary machine to scan other''s battle power instead. Bulma also gave 6 sets of her specially made adult-sized ultra-stretchable training gi clothes to Raditz. Raditz waved goodbye to Bulma and paid a visit to Korin and grabbed the last 5 senzu beans. "Ah! I forgot to grab Frieza''s spaceship." Raditz patted his forehead. Frieza''s spaceship contained the most advanced technology of Frieza Force. The ship also had many Rejuvenation Tanks which Raditz was very interested in. Since there was no one staying on Planet Namek, Raditz would not be able to lock onto anyone''s Ki to teleport over. As for the few rare animals living on Planet Namek, Raditz doubted he would be able to sense their faint and non-existent Ki. Raditz threw out the spaceship capsule, boarded it and flew toward Planet Namek. Luckily it would only take him 5 days to travel to Planet Namek. 39 Super Saiyan? Vegeta wasn''t dumb and could figure out that Raditz only became stronger after arriving on Earth. Not to mention all the fighters from Earth were stronger than him and Nappa. Although he did not know about the earthlings, having seen Tien Shinhan''s Kikoho slam Frieza in his final form into the triangle-shaped hole again and again. He did not dare to underestimate the earthlings. "There must be some secret on Earth to Raditz''s improvement." Vegeta muttered. Bulma was pissed by Vegeta''s proud, arrogant and degrading tone. Especially that he kept calling her ''woman''. But she was very proud of her friends'' strength and did not mind showing off in front of Vegeta. Thanks to Bulma''s big mouth, Vegeta learned many things. That the earthlings were capable of sensing Ki and controlling their Ki. This made it difficult for him to identify whether someone was actually strong or weak. For some time, Vegeta had been wary of every single human he met. Despite his scouter giving a reading below 100 battle power. "Earth''s martial art, Ki sense, Ki control, and gravity training! Of course, gravity training will benefit us Saiyans immensely. To think a backward planet could actually invent a Gravity Simulation Machine." Vegeta muttered. Vegeta had learned from Bulma that Kami and Master Roshi could teach him martial arts and learn Ki sense and Ki control. Since Piccolo died, Kami was naturally also dead, leaving only Master Roshi. But with Vegeta''s pride, he was naturally not willing to bow his head and beg an earthling to teach him. Instead, he planned to fight one of the weaker earthlings and with his Saiyan talent learn it by getting hurt by Earth''s martial art to let his body absorb all the experiences. "I''ll start with gravity training then." Vegeta decided to wait until the earthlings gather at Bulma''s house after 43 days had passed and then choose the weaker ones to fight with. "What?! Raditz took all the gravity machines?!" Vegeta yelled. "You better make another one quickly! Or I''ll tear you apart!" Vegeta threatened Dr. Brief. "Well... It will take some time. I''ll let you know when it''s ready. Do you want a spaceship or a Gravity Chamber?" Dr. Brief puffed his cigarette nonchalantly. "Whichever is faster!" Vegeta demanded and left. "Hm... It depends on the decoration. Do you want a disco hall?" Dr. Brief blabbered alone. ... Raditz arrived on Planet Namek and quickly found Frieza''s spaceship. There were some Frieza henchmen left on the ship. They were calmly waiting for Frieza to return, never in their wildest dreams had they imagined that Frieza was already dead. Raditz made short work of all of Frieza''s men on the ship and set it to fly to Earth. The spaceship was too big for Raditz to teleport it back with. His Ki wasn''t enough to support the gigantic disc-shaped spaceship. Maybe if he could transform into a Super Saiyan would be able to. Frieza''s spaceship was slower than his and would require 2 weeks to fly to Earth. Luckily it got auto-pilot. Raditz simply let if fly unmanned and stayed on Planet Namek. "Time to train in transforming into a Super Saiyan." Raditz said excitedly. He now had so many experiences and memories he could make use to draw out his anger. Raditz spread out his legs to a shoulder-width distance and took a deep breath. Raditz replayed his memories when he got beaten up and toyed by Frieza. Feeling his anger rise, he continued replaying other memories, when Piccolo pushed him away and got hit by Frieza''s Death beam in the chest, when he saved Gohan and got his heart pierced by another Death Beam. When Frieza pulled Piccolo into the air and clenched his fist, exploding Piccolo into dust. Since Piccolo was still dead, coupled with him still being in Planet Namek and seeing the environment, the memories replayed in his mind felt all the more real as if it had just happened. "AAAAAAAHHHH!!" Feeling the rush of anger come, Raditz let his emotions take control of his body. Raditz''s muscles were bulging, a golden aura wrapped around his body and flickered unstably. His Ki was increasing rapidly. His long hair was shaking up and down. "Come on! Just a bit more!" Raditz imagined Gohan getting toyed around and killed by Frieza. Boom! A shockwave blasted out with Raditz in the center, dust and pebbles were repelled. The golden aura shook violently and rapidly like a candlelight about to be blown out. The ground under Raditz''s feet caved in like a crater. "HAAAAAAAAAHH!!" Raditz let out all his energy to push the transformation further. The golden aura gradually dispersed... Raditz Ki was rapidly decreasing. Raditz fell down on his hands and knees and panted profusely, beads of sweat dripping from his face down to the ground. "So close!" Raditz muttered in disappointment. He felt like he had almost grasped it as if his hand was just a few centimeters away from the door handle. He just needed to grab the door handle and jerk open the door. Raditz spent 3 days trying to transform into a Super Saiyan. "Damn it! Why!!" Raditz punched the ground in anger. Boom! A small crater formed from Raditz''s punch. "I''m so close! Since I can transform into a Pseudo Super Saiyan, I just need a bit more S-cells." Raditz decided to focus on gravity training. Raditz tided up his clothes and teleported back to Earth via King Kai''s planet. Raditz first paid a visit to Goku''s home and gave Gohan a Gravity Chamber and urged him to train his body more and also to get more used to transform into a Super Saiyan. Then Raditz sensed for Tien Shinhan''s Ki and teleported to him. After a discussion, Tien Shinhan was happy to open a martial art school and named it Tien-Shin Style Dojo. Raditz helped Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu in building the school in the mountains. Raditz was so poor, he didn''t even have a single cent. Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu didn''t have a job, so no one could afford to hire workers to build the school. But being as strong as they were, it was a piece of cake to cut some trees and build a big building themselves. Chiaotzu was skilled in telekinesis, Raditz and Tien Shinhan used their Ki to cut numerous trees and split them into planks. Then using Ki to levitate the planks, they easily moved all the building materials over. Raditz and Tien Shinhan knew clone techniques and made many clones to help build the house and hammer nails. Since battle power wasn''t important, they each made over 10 clones each and managed to build the school in 3 days. "It''s finished!" Raditz smiled. "Thanks for the help, Raditz." Tien Shinhan thanked. "No worries, work hard and recruit many students. The androids may be our only enemies now. But there is no telling what might come in the future. It''s your duty to spread the knowledge of martial arts to the people. Let the people safeguard their own lives. We can''t always save them, neither are we able to save everyone." Raditz said solemnly. "Yes! I will do my best to spread the knowledge of martial arts to the people. I''ll also make sure only those with goodwill will learn martial arts." Tien Shinhan seemed to recall his old school, the Crane School. Many of the students were evil and even his former master''s brother was an evil assassin. After Raditz gave the remaining Gravity Chamber to Tien Shinhan and urged him to train his body more and at least master 100x gravity, he left. "Good luck! I''ll see you in 3 years." Raditz said his goodbye. "See you in 3 years!" Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu waved goodbye.

Now that he had mastered Kaioken, if he can get used to 100x gravity, he would be able to increase the output of Kaioken. After Raditz saw Tien Shinhan''s Kikohon slam into Frieza, he recalled a similar scene in Cell Saga and hoped Tien Shinhan would become even stronger. The reason Raditz came to visit Tien Shinhan was to make him open a martial arts school and spread martial arts to more people. One reason was to make Earth less ignorant of future situations, another reason was naturally for him to use the Spirit Bomb. The stronger the people on Earth were, considering the huge population of Earth, even just a small increment in strength was able to bring endless energy to supply the Spirit Bomb. "Right, I need to make sure that Satan doesn''t steal the credits." Raditz patted his head. He didn''t want people to say "what kind of witchcraft is this?" When then contributed some of their energy and then felt weak. Or that they would be unwilling to contribute energy to his Spirit Bomb. Of course, he wouldn''t say no to free money. Especially since he did not even own a single cent. Raditz paid a visit to Papaya Island and asked for the date for the next WMA(World Martial Arts Tournament) The next tournament is on Age 767, May 7, 5 days earlier than the date they would meet up to fight the androids. Raditz paid another visit to Bulma and got a smartphone and set the alarm to remind him to participate in the next WMA. 40 Tricking Nappa "Hm... Nappa and Vegeta are just idling." Raditz sensed Nappa and Vegeta''s Ki in Capsule Corp''s premises. Little did he know it was due to him taking all the gravity machines that left them with nothing better to do. "Well considering Vegeta''s temper, I bet I can trick him into thinking Nappa defected." Raditz smiled. Nappa was a boorish, short-tempered musclebrain simpleton that acted first before thinking. Raditz was confident in tricking Nappa to cooperate with him in tricking Vegeta without Nappa even realizing it. "A golden mustache Super Saiyan baldie?" Raditz imagined how Nappa would look like when he transforms into a Super Saiyan. Of course, it wasn''t just because Raditz was curious about how Nappa would look when he transforms into a Super Saiyan that he wanted Nappa to join his side. Since he knew of the Super Saiyan God Ritual, he wanted to find 5 righteous Saiyans to help him complete the ritual for him. "Hm... Goku, Gohan, Nappa, Vegeta. That makes it 4, but who knows when Vegeta can become righteous. So let''s count it as 3. That means I need 2 more Saiyans. If Nappa can get married and have a kid... Sounds like a good plan. Then there is Goten, or I could try to have a kid...?" Raditz muttered. "Hum. This plan should do." Raditz nodded his head. He would first invite over Nappa to eat and have a talk for old times'' sake. Make a few jokes and make Nappa laugh, it would be best if Vegeta was somewhere they could not see, but close enough to quickly notice Nappa and him when they leave in a happy and laughing mood. Then Raditz would bait Nappa to offering to teach him martial arts, the secret to his power. Of course, he would teach very slowly and little so they would have to meet up often and make Vegeta more and more suspicious of Nappa. Thanks to Bulma''s generosity, a mouthwatering banquet was prepared in the perfect spot. Once Nappa separated from Vegeta, Raditz quickly met up with Nappa and invited him over for a meal. Nappa salivated from smelling the aromatic dishes and was easily convinced. Raditz led the conversation, talking about the old times'', evoking old memories and camaraderie. Sometimes making some jokes and made Nappa laugh in a roaring manner. At the end of the meal, Raditz hinted that for old times'' sake, he hinted that he was willing to teach Nappa some martial arts, but only to him. Because their relationship was currently very strained, Raditz had Nappa promise to keep quiet about them meeting for now. Since it might strain his and Vegeta''s relations as well. But once their relations eased, he could tell and even teach Vegeta the martial arts he had learned. Nappa easily bought the story and nodded before leaving with a laugh. Vegeta heard Nappa''s laughter and shot him a questioning look. Since Nappa did not explain, and Vegeta was too prideful to ask and look like he is petty. Vegeta ended up suppressing the suspicion in his heart. The next day, Nappa went out again without telling Vegeta. He met up with Raditz, and started learning some martial arts. Of course, the first thing Raditz taught Nappa was to temper his spirit. Nappa was just too short-tempered and dumb. Even when he was threatened to not do this or that, once he gets angry, he''ll forget the threat and act before thinking. Nappa got really restless and annoyed trying to meditate and after almost giving up several dozens of times, was finally placated by Raditz''s show of might. Raditz had simply said that only by training in martial arts would he be able to acquire the same amount of power as him. Several days passed, each day Nappa would leave and meet up with Raditz to meditate under his supervision. And each day, Vegeta received no explanation and grew more and more suspicious of Nappa''s activities. "What kind of dumbass is he?! How come he still can''t get it down and meditate! This big dumb oaf!" Raditz had spent one whole week supervising without Nappa making any progress at all. He still hadn''t gotten down the basics by stilling his heart. If Nappa can''t even meditate, he can''t even begin to temper his spirit. Raditz was already regretting to keep supervising him. Finally, the next day, Raditz sensed Vegeta''s Ki surreptitiously tailing Nappa. He had finally taken the bait. "Raditz, we''re not doing martial arts today?" Nappa asked. "No, you''ve worked hard this past week. You deserve a rest. Don''t push yourself too hard, the mind is more complicated than training your body." Raditz bullshitted. "Is that so? But I still haven''t made any progress though?" Nappa asked. "Don''t worry, it took me years of training in martial arts to reach my current stage. You''re getting too impatient, your mind is too tense. Without easing your mind, you won''t gain anything even if you force it." Raditz said and brought Nappa to have a nice meal, make some jokes and made Nappa laugh. A distance away, Vegeta was watching the two enjoy the meal while his body shook in anger. "That damn traitor!!" Vegeta clenched his fists and left in anger. Nappa had never told him anything about meeting up with Raditz. But considering Nappa''s suspicious activities for the past week, Vegeta could already deduce that he had been meeting up with Raditz every day. And he had even hidden it from him. Nappa left happily and went back to his room in Capsule Corp. Raditz was worried that Vegeta might kill Nappa in a fit of anger. But was more than happy to capitalize on it to fully convert Nappa to his side. Raditz silently tailed Nappa. "Nappa! You traitor!" Vegeta stood outside the door with his arms crossed. "W-what? Vegeta, what are you talking about?" Nappa fumbled his words in panic. "You think I don''t know what you have been doing? I know you''ve been going behind my back to meet Raditz every day!" Vegeta roared. "Ah! V-Vegeta it''s not what you think!" Nappa hurriedly waved his hands. "Still making excuses!" Vegeta raged. "I''m only learning martial arts from him!" Nappa hurriedly explained. "So you joined him in order to learn martial arts? F*cking trash! Just die!" Vegeta exploded in anger and blasted a Ki wave at Nappa. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Holy Shit! He really did it!" Raditz appeared in front of Nappa and extinguished the Ki wave with his huge volume of Ki. "Raditz!" Vegeta gnashed his teeth. "Vegeta! Don''t you dare destroy this place. Bulma was kind enough to let you live here for free. If you dare cause a mess, I won''t hesitate to throw you out in space." Raditz yelled. Raditz finished his speech, grabbed Nappa and dragged him away. "Sorry about that. I didn''t think Vegeta would react like that. That was also why I didn''t want you to tell him about our meeting." Raditz made an apologetic face. "I just don''t know how he found out. Maybe because we live in the same room?" Nappa muttered sadly. Since he had nowhere to stay now, Nappa followed Raditz. And Raditz went to Dr. Brief and took the new Gravity Chamber he had just finished making, with a disco hall. "Neat! I got to say, this disco hall is really useful in gravity training. I''ve gotten so bored from doing normal sit-ups, push-ups etc that I''ve started to dance to the music on my spaceship." Raditz praised before pocketing the Gravity Chamber capsule. Before Dr. Brief could start blabbering, Raditz grabbed Nappa and hurriedly left. He went to see Bulma who had finished making a stationary machine that could scan battle power. It was named Battle Power Scanner. Good thing was that everything made in Capsule Corp could be turned into capsules. Raditz pocketed the Battle Power Scanner in its capsule form and said goodbye. Raditz decided to dump Nappa at Tien-Shin Style Dojo. He got such a headache trying to teach Nappa to meditate and decided to leave the problem to Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu. And even if Nappa starts rampaging, Tien Shinhan was more than enough to suppress him. "Right, I might as well teach Tien Shinhan the Yardratian''s spirit tempering technique." Raditz had not done any spirit tempering since he left Planet Yardrat that he forgot it''s existence and did not teach Tien Shinhan their spirit tempering technique on his last visit. Raditz grabbed Nappa and teleported to Tien Shinhan, the teleportation fascinated Nappa. Raditz first taught Tien Shinhan the Yardratian''s spirit tempering technique and hoped he would improve quickly. While Tien Shinhan was feeling endless gratitude, Raditz dumped Nappa to him and simply asked him to take care of Nappa, gave Nappa the Gravity Chamber before he vanished. "..." Tien Shinhan. "..." Nappa. Both of them were speechless. ... Meanwhile in Capsule Corp. Vegeta went to get his Gravity Chamber which should be done by today. "Is the Gravity Chamber done yet?" Vegeta asked Dr. Brief. "Yes, I just finished it today." Dr. Brief said. "Great! Bring it to me!" Vegeta demanded. "Oh, Raditz took it." Dr. Brief said. "RADITZZZZZ!!!" Vegeta roared. 41 Reviving Piccolo and Yamcha Raditz returned to Goku''s home. Gohan was making some progress in controlling his Super Saiyan Transformation, but it would still take some time before he could transform freely. Being motivated by Gohan''s progress, Raditz entered his spaceship and started training in gravity training. Raditz put on some music and turned on the disco ball and started dancing to the music in the disco light while being weighed down by the heavy gravity. After two weeks had passed since he set Frieza''s spaceship on autopilot, Raditz flew out high up in space and looked for Frieza''s spaceship. After spending some time looking and waiting for the ship, Raditz finally spotted it. After he entered the ship, he steered it to land in Capsule Corp. Luckily, despite the large size of the spaceship, Capsule Corp could easily house the spaceship. "Raditz! T-that big spaceship is...?" Bulma said in shock. "Oh, this is Frieza''s spaceship, it got the latest technologies of Frieza Force." Raditz said. "Wow! Quick! Quick! Bring me inside!" Bulma''s eyes were shining. Raditz already had the plan to bring Bulma to the spaceship. He brought her in to have a look around. Thanks to Raditz''s help, Bulma had also learned the Universal Language and could now independently control the spaceship on her own. "Can you analyze the liquid in the Rejuvenation Tank and produce it? Also, please make separate Rejuvenation Tanks that can be put in capsules. Thanks." Raditz requested. "No problem! Just leave it to me!" Bulma waved her hand and continued to busily tap the buttons in the control center. Raditz also brought Dr. Brief to check the spaceship, if the spaceship had enough sturdy materials to make a sturdier Gravity Chamber, Raditz would not need to travel to space and raid Frieza''s bases. Raditz went back to Goku''s home and resumed his gravity training on his spaceship. Finally, 43 days had passed since the Namekian Dragon Balls were summoned. Gohan knocked on Raditz''s spaceship and reminded Raditz about their meeting. Goku, Gohan and Raditz flew to Bulma''s house. Although they could have simply teleported over, Goku and Gohan simply liked to take their time and enjoy the whole trip. Raditz who had spent all his time training in the cramped spaceship also enjoyed the change in scenery. "I can see why they like to fly instead of teleporting." Raditz smiled. Everyone gathered at Bulma''s house. Raditz, Goku, Gohan, Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, Nappa, Krillin, Master Roshi, Oolong and Puar had come to Bulma''s house. Bulma, Vegeta, and all the Namekians had gathered outside the house, they brought out the Namekian Dragon Balls and summoned Porunga. The sky darkened and Porunga, the monster Dragon appeared. "So that''s the summoning password." Raditz had learned Namekian just for this purpose. He silently etched the password into his memories. Grand Elder Moori spoke the wishes since they had used the first wish before, there was only two wishes left. First, they wished for Piccolo to be brought to life, then Yamcha. After they finished their wishes, Porunga disappeared and the Namekian Dragon Balls turned into stones but did not scatter. After waiting for a few minutes, Piccolo and Yamcha appeared in front of them. "Uncle Piccolo!" Gohan cried and ran up to Piccolo and gave him a hug. "Piccolo!" Raditz went forward and also gave Piccolo a hug. His actions of saving them on Planet Namek had deeply moved Raditz. "Yamcha-samaaaa!" Puar cried and flew into Yamcha''s chest. After seeing the magical powers of Namekian Dragon Balls, both Vegeta and Nappa had a fiery look in their eyes. But Raditz doused their flaming desire and explained that the Dragon Balls had limited powers that were limited by their creator''s power. It was impossible to wish to become stronger or kill someone stronger than the Dragon Ball''s creator. Neither could they wish for immortality, for they would only live for a limitless lifespan and not be affected by natural causes of death. That which is the same as Eternal Youth. Raditz naturally did not mention that the Super Dragon Balls were capable of granting true immortality though. Tien Shinhan and Nappa stared at Raditz, but Raditz pretended to not see it. "Hey, Piccolo. Wanna train with me, Raditz and Gohan?" Goku invited. "Sounds good to me." Piccolo nodded. Just as everyone was about to split up and go back to their homes, Vegeta stepped up. "Hey, midget. Fight me!" Vegeta said to Chiaotzu who looked weakest. Tien Shinhan gave an encouraging look to Chiaotzu. Maybe because there was no Saiyan Saga and Vegeta and Nappa had not hurt nor killed his friends, neither Tien Shinhan nor Chiaotzu held much hostility toward Vegeta and Nappa. And ever since Nappa stayed at their school, they had gotten along better. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Don''t call me midget! Aren''t you a shorty yourself?" Chiaotzu flew forward and glanced at Piccolo, Raditz, and Nappa that were around 2 meter tall and compared to Vegeta who was only 164 cm tall. "Shut up!" Vegeta dashed toward Chiaotzu. Just as Vegeta was about to reach Chiaotzu, Chiaotzu put his arms forward and said: "Stop!" Suddenly Vegeta halted his movement, held his stomach and fell to the ground. Saliva splattered from his mouth as he curled up like a shrimp. Chiaotzu had used his telekinesis to cramp Vegeta''s stomach. Everyone started laughing from seeing Vegeta''s ridiculous appearance. Nappa laughed for a while before noticing his own actions and stopped. He hurriedly asked Chiaotzu to show mercy. What he did not know was that Vegeta already felt so humiliated not only by not even being able to touch Chiaotzu but mostly from everyone laughing as he curled up like a shrimp, felt worse to have his former subordinate ask that little midget to show mercy. Vegeta stomped his foot and flew out of West City. Because everyone had learned from Raditz how evil Vegeta is and the countless innocent lives he had taken, they did not feel sorry for laughing at Vegeta. They had only let him off on the account of Future Trunks'' request and allowed him to stay on Earth. Nappa had a complicated look on his face as he watched Vegeta disappear into a tiny dot in the distance. After sighing, he followed Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu back to Tien-Shin Style Dojo and also looked at Chiaotzu in a more respectful way. In the past, he had only thought the midget as a mascot of the Tien-Shin Style Dojo. Nappa had learned about the androids that would be coming in 3 years'' time from Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu. He was horrified to learn there would be two people stronger than Frieza, stronger than the Super Saiyan Gohan who had defeated Frieza, and that mysterious Super Saiyan youth from the future. There was no use overthinking and went back to training. Raditz talked with Bulma and picked up a few Rejuvenation Tank capsules. Although Bulma had yet to finish analyzing and producing the healing liquid, the tanks had enough healing liquid to be used a few times. Raditz also paid a visit to Dr. Brief, he was still analyzing Frieza''s spaceship and had yet to make a sturdier Gravity Chamber. Raditz grabbed the newly made ordinary Gravity Chamber and intended to give it to Piccolo. After saying goodbye to the Brief family, Raditz flew back to Goku''s home. He caught up to Goku, Gohan, and Piccolo and flew back home together. 42 Vegetas Determination 130 days passed and the Namekians were going to wish for their planet to be restored to its original state before wishing to relocate themselves back to Planet Namek. Raditz, Piccolo, Goku, and Gohan came to see them off. The others also came, it was just Vegeta missing. Because of their similar age, Dende, Cargo, and Gohan got along very well. The three of them shed tears and said goodbye. Raditz had a smile on his face as he waved goodbye to all the Namekians. He was happy they formed connections so that in the future he could rely on their help when the need comes. The Namekians disappeared one by one, soon everyone except Piccolo had been relocated back to Planet Namek. "Uncle Piccolo, how come you decided not to with the other Namekians back to Planet Namek?" Gohan asked. "No major reason. I just can''t stand living such a dull and boring life." Piccolo said. "Then, let''s train harder!" Gohan cheered. "Naturally." Piccolo smiled. Raditz happily received the new and sturdier Gravity Chamber from Dr. Brief. Bulma had also finished analyzing the healing liquid and could now produce it. Raditz received a large storage tank filled with healing liquid and took a few more Rejuvenation Tanks and distributed them to Goku, Gohan, Piccolo, Nappa, and Tien Shinhan. Now they could train more daringly in the Gravity Chambers. Gohan had made many improvements and can now easily transition between his normal state and Super Saiyan state. Raditz guided Gohan to the next step, the power stressed forms might give a boost in power in short terms, but there was a dead end. So Raditz guided Gohan to continue staying in his Super Saiyan state daily until he got used to it like breathing. Once Gohan does that he would acquire the Mastered Super Saiyan state that was much stronger than Ascended Super Saiyan. The only problem was that Chichi started crying: "My sweet little boy has turned into a delinquent!"(Because Japanese people have black hair, those that bleach their hairs are usually delinquents.) But Raditz convinced Chichi that Gohan had foreign blood(*Cough* Saiyan Blood), and his transformation into a Super Saiyan was simply awakening his foreign blood. And there were many foreigners with blond hair in the Dragon Ball World. So finally, Chichi calmed down and was able to accept Gohan''s transformation. "It''s good that she is able to accept things so early. Because soon, our whole family will start having blond hair." Raditz smiled. ... Vegeta did feel a large increase in his strength after training in the Gravity Chamber, his first-generation scouter even broke after he measured his battle power, meaning it exceeded 24,000. But after receiving a new scouter from Bulma, his battle power only measured 43,000 battle power. Although it was a pleasant surprise at first. But once he took a look at Nappa''s battle power, his battle power had actually reached over 100,000! "Bastard!" Vegeta crushed the scouter in anger. After making up his mind, Vegeta flew to the Lookout to ask Kami to train him. He could not bring himself to lower himself to a mere earthling. Thus he decided to ask Kami, who was a deity and the creator of the Dragon Balls, who seemed of a higher and more befitting status for him to learn from. "Such an evil heart! Please leave, you''re not fit to learn my martial arts." Kami said sternly. "Bastard! I''m telling you to teach me martial arts!" Vegeta demanded. "Leave! This place does not welcome you!" Kami knocked his staff on the floor. "You dare! Teach me martial arts now! Or I''ll kill you!" Vegeta threatened. Suddenly, Piccolo appeared. "Vegeta! Get the hell out of here!" Feeling the Vegeta''s killing intent directed to Kami, Piccolo did not look friendly. "It''s you, Namekia-" Vegeta did not even finish his words before it was interrupted. Piccolo pushed his palm forward, an invisible air shockwave blasted Vegeta off the Lookout and sent him hurtling back down to Earth. "Thank you, Piccolo." Kami said. "Don''t misunderstand. I didn''t do it for you. I just didn''t want Vegeta to kill you, which would also kill me. I was only saving myself." Piccolo said before disappearing. The only reason Piccolo did not directly kill Vegeta just now to avenge the Namekians he had killed, was that Goku and Gohan had explained that Vegeta was actually Future Trunks'' father. Considering that Trunks had come to the past to warn them of the androids, Piccolo decided to let Vegeta live for a while longer. At least until he sees Trunks being born. ... Bang! Vegeta crashed into a desolate clearing, after recovering, Vegeta crawled out of the huge crater formed by his crash. "Damned Namekian!!" Vegeta cursed. But he was also helpless. The Kiai Piccolo casually generated had made him feel the enormous gap between their powers. Facing Piccolo made him feel like he was facing Frieza. "Just wait till I learn martial arts! I''ll kill you both!" Vegeta clenched his fists, his body shaking from anger. Since even a Mid-Class Warrior like Raditz could become so strong, he naturally believed that he, the Saiyan Prince, a Super Elite was even more talented and have more potential. Would soon surpass them all. He planned to kill both Kami and Piccolo once he surpassed them. Vegeta went back to train in the Gravity Chamber. 3 months later, Vegeta had his battle power scanned again, it had increased to 80,000. And that was with the help of the Rejuvenation Tanks constantly healing him and himself pushing his body to the limit. "Cursed Nappa!" Vegeta could not accept himself even falling behind Nappa. 3 months ago, Nappa''s battle power was already 100,000. Now 3 months after, it must have surely increased even more. Yet, Vegeta had not even reached 100,000 battle power himself. When both of them arrived on Earth, Nappa''s battle power was just 6,000, while his was 20,000. Yet Nappa had completely overtaken him. After raging for a while, and having destroyed his courtyard, Vegeta finally calmed down. With great determination, Vegeta lowered his pride and asked Bulma where to find Master Roshi. On a tiny island somewhere in the sea was a small Kame house. Vegeta flew down and landed in front of the house. "Ehehehe!" Master Roshi let out a perverted laugh while pressing his face to the TV screen. After Launch found out that Tien Shinhan had founded his own school, she had immediately packed her bag and without leaving a word, left for Tien-Shin Style Dojo. Now, Master Roshi only had his erotic magazines and TV to entertain himself. "Damnit! Is this old decrepit man even reliable?!" Vegeta muttered. "Hey, old man." Vegeta came up to Master Roshi. "Ehehehe! Spread them a bit more! Yes! Just like that!" Master Roshi was too focused on the TV to hear Vegeta''s voice. "Old man!" Vegeta kicked away Master Roshi. He did it as gently as possible. It was not that he had turned kinder, but he simply did not have anyone else to turn to. If he accidentally killed his bony old man, he would no longer know where to find a martial arts teacher. "Huh? You are...? Oh, you''re Vegeta, I remember seeing you at Bulma''s home. What do you want?" Master Roshi looked up and down at Vegeta. "I heard you taught Kakarot. Teach me as well. I want to surpass him and Raditz!" Vegeta spoke frankly. "Ah, you mean Goku? Yes, I taught him since he was a little kid." Master Roshi nodded his head. "I can teach you too, but you need to pass my test first!" Master Roshi rubbed his hands. "Test? I don''t need any test." Vegeta said impatiently. "Don''t be in such a rush, Goku also took the test, and he passed it, but just barely." Master Roshi said. "I see, don''t worry. I''ll definitely pass it with flying colors." Vegeta felt competitive. "Alright, I want you to bring me a Pichi-Pichi girl." Master Roshi''s face turned perverted. "Bitchy-Bitchy?" Vegeta looked confused. "Ah, right. You''re also a Saiyan like Goku. Here, look I want this kind of girl!" Master Roshi patted his head as if he remembered how Goku could not identify a pretty girl. He pulled out an erotic magazine and pointed at the cover. "What a vulgar woman!" Vegeta exclaimed. The girl on the magazine cover was topless and only covered her breasts with her hands. "Yes! Yes! Good! You''re much better than Goku!" Master Roshi said happily, knowing he did not need to educate Vegeta on how to identify pretty girls. "What kind of test is this...? Since Kakarot also did it, there must be some kind of hidden meaning... Kakarot barely passed. I''ll do must better!" Vegeta shot into the skies. Vegeta had exterminated numerous natives from all kinds of planets. The natives were like ants to him, capturing a few as slaves were nothing out of the ordinary in space. He did not care if the test was seen as a transaction. He would just grab a "slave" and hand it over to Master Roshi. After searching for half a day in a city. Vegeta stumbled upon a strip club.

Vegeta looked at the topless girls pole-dancing" With a flushed face, he quickly grabbed the closest blond pole dancer and flew out of the city. Vegeta arrived at Kame''s house with the girl help by the cuff. "Ohehehe!" Master Roshi laughed pervertedly as blood started dripping from his nose. "Kyaaaa! Kidnapper!" The blond girl screamed. "Silence!" Vegeta threw the girl on the ground. "Vegeta! You can''t just kidnap a girl! Y-You''re breaking the law!" Master Roshi''s eyes popped out. "Shut up! Old man, I got you the girl. Now, start teaching me!" Vegeta demanded. "You did not pass the test! You need to bring a girl willingly here! Even Goku passed the test! Shame on you!" Master Roshi did not relent. "Grrr! Kakarot!" Vegeta did not like to be compared to a Low-Class Saiyan. He grabbed the girl and flew back to the city. After throwing the girl on a random street, he began his quest to find a girl willing to stay at Kame House. 43 Summoning Shenron A year had passed since Earth''s Dragon Balls had been summoned by Lord Slug. "It''s a waste to not use the Dragon Balls when they are available." Raditz muttered. The Z Team could potentially summon Shenron 3 times during their 3 years training before fighting the androids. Raditz borrowed Bulma''s Dragon Radar and collected all 7 Dragon Balls. He had already decided on the first wish. In order to further improve their relations with the Namekians, he decided to use Earth''s Dragon Balls to revive all the Namekians that had been killed by Frieza and his men, and also by Vegeta and Nappa. This was something the Namekian''s Dragon Balls could not do. They might be able to revive the same person without restrictions. But they could only wish back one person with each wish. It wasn''t feasible for them to wish back 3 Namekians every 130 years for who knows how many years. Raditz made his wish and watched the Dragon Balls shoot into the air, scattering around the world. "Revival... Should I revive Bardock and Gine...?" Raditz had mixed feelings about his parents. He just inherited Raditz''s body. He wasn''t sure how he would feel with suddenly having parents. Since he had come to terms and accepted his identity as Raditz, he should of course, accept Raditz''s parents as well. But it was a different feeling to suddenly get parents when you''re already an adult. If you''re a child, it was fine to depend on the adults. Feelings were slowly developed over time. He only had the old Raditz''s memories of his parents, he himself did not really miss his so-called parents. But just now, when he suddenly had that thought of maybe reviving his parents, he suddenly felt a heartache... It was obviously not him that missed his parents, but the old Raditz''s heart. "Well, it''s not like the team has any wishes to make, I might as well use the Dragon Balls next year." Raditz muttered, he put his palm and felt his heart beating. He made up his mind to simply wish for his parents to revive. Whatever comes next, he''ll just let nature take its course. In order to maximize his profits, Raditz took Piccolo, Goku, and Gohan with him and paid a visit to Planet Namek. It was important to make them remember his actions of reviving all the Namekians and make them feel indebted to him. Raditz felt like he would make a good PR manager if he ever needed a job. Raditz and they spent a few days hanging around and chatting with various Namekians. Gohan played with Dende and Cargo. It took them by surprise upon seeing Gohan''s blond hair, but it didn''t take long for them to recognize their friend. After a few days on Planet Namek, they returned back home. "After a well-spent rest. It''s time to train hard and diligent!" Raditz was never so hardworking and diligent. But Gohan''s hardworking and diligent attitude put huge pressure on him. Although one of the reasons Gohan was even able to be so hardworking and diligent, was because Raditz had relieved Gohan of Chichi''s interference and goals to be a scholar. Raditz knew that Chichi wanted Gohan to have a high salary job that can bring money home to their family. Raditz managed to convince Chichi that being a renowned Martial Artist would bring riches home to the family. The plan was naturally to defeat the androids once they start rampaging, and then appear on the news. Although that''s what Chichi thought. The truth was that Raditz planned to have them defeat Cell and NOT let Satan steal their credit. At least he knows just how rich Satan became because he became a world-renowned Martial Artist. And to do that, he needed to make sure Satan did not become the champion of the next WMA. Cell Tournament was a necessity in order to stimulate the Z Team''s potential and prepare for Buu in the future. And even if they lose, Raditz was sure they could just wait till Cell leaves Earth, or after he destroys Earth and leaves the area. They could then ask the Namekians to help them restore Earth and revive them. The days passed one by one, like the river flowing and water trickling down a stream. Raditz worked extremely hard, he pushed his body to the extreme limits that his body even started collapsing. Gohan had been extremely worried after dragging an unconscious Raditz countless times to the Rejuvenation Tank. In a remote and desolate desert. "AAAAAAAHHHHH!" Raditz roared in extreme anger. Boom! Boom! Boom! Raditz threw punch after punch and devastated the desert. Numerous craters filled the desert. "WHY!!! I AM ALREADY SO STRONG!!" Raditz cried out in anger. Another year had passed since he summoned Shenron. His battle power had reached 9 million. Yet, he was still stuck in the Pseudo Super Saiyan state. Even Goku had already managed to transform into a Super Saiyan. After spending some time to learn and be able to freely transform at will, Goku was now following the same steps Gohan did and started to keep his Super Saiyan transformation in his daily life. As Raditz was venting his anger, he suddenly felt something moving above and turned his head up to look. A disc-shaped spaceship looking similar to Frieza''s spaceship approached Earth, after half an hour it landed in the desert where Raditz stayed. The hatch opened and numerous aliens armed with scouters and beam guns disembarked the ship. The last to step out of the ship was a 3 meter tall King Cold. King Cold had been confused over Frieza''s disappearance. Luckily he was able to find out that Frieza''s spaceship had landed on Earth. But later the communication system stopped relaying any information. Little did he know, Dr. Brief had gradually dismantled Frieza''s spaceship, thus rendered the ship''s communication system useless. Worried about his little genius son that had been missing for two years now, King Cold had personally come to Earth to find his son. "A Saiyan? Good! I know you''re one of my son''s subordinates. Saiyan, tell me, where is Frieza. Did something happen to his ship?" King Cold saw Raditz with his Saiyan tail. Since Frieza planned to take care of Raditz on his own, he did not see the need for reporting such a trivial matter to his father. As such, King Cold did not know that Raditz had long since defected from Frieza Force. In fact, he did not believe anyone could harm Frieza. The worse he could possibly imagine, was that their spaceship malfunctioning. Without any way to communicate nor leave the planet, they might simply be stuck on this backward planet called Earth. Raditz was in an extremely bad mood. Upon seeing King Cold and his army, Raditz found a target to vent his frustrations. "Die!" Without a warning, Raditz shot out an extremely wide Ki wave from his palm. The Ki wave engulfed all the men, King Cold, and the spaceship. The attack was too sudden and unexpected. King Cold had never expected that one of their own subordinates would attack him. Once the Ki wave disappeared, only King Cold stood alone in the desert. His men and the spaceship had been destroyed. But simply relying on Raditz''s 9 million battle power was not enough to harm King Cold. But his battle armor and cape were destroyed. "Aaah! You despicable ape!" King Cold stared at the remains of his ship and men and screamed. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. King Cold shot out a barrage of Ki blast at Raditz. "Kaioken 30x!" Raditz was not in the mood to play around and after boosting his battle power to 270 million, he simply blasted King Cold to dust with a fan-shaped Ki wave. "Ah... That was a bit wasteful." Only after finishing venting, did Raditz cool down his mind. He felt a great waste of resources for him to have so simply destroyed King Cold''s spaceship. Raditz decided to take a break since he was getting too impatient and frustrated from training. Since it''s been another year since he had summoned Shenron, Raditz collected all the Dragon Balls again. Raditz summoned Shenron. "State your wish." Shenron said. "I wish for my parents to be brought back to life." Raditz said. Shenron''s red eyes shone for a brief moment. "Unfortunately I''m only able to bring back your mother to life. Do you still wish to continue your wish?" Shenron said. "Why? Why can''t you bring back Bardock?" Raditz asked. "The Saiyan named Bardock has already reincarnated his spirit more than 200 years ago." Shenron said. "More than 200 years ago...? Don''t tell me it''s because...! Bardock traveled back in time." Raditz remembered the Dragon Ball Movie about Bardock. During Planet Vegeta''s explosion, somehow a space-time vortex sucked Bardock in and brought him back in time. Although it was unclear whether he simply went back in time, in his timeline. Or a new timeline was created. But either way, the first Bardock disappeared only for another Bardock to have appeared sometime long in the past. When Bardock fought Frieza''s ancestor and became a Super Saiyan, that was how the Super Saiyan legend was born. Unfortunately, it was so many years ago, even before the Saiyans took over Planet Tuffle and turned it into Planet Vegeta. Bardock had likely died of old age, a natural cause of death. This means that even if Bardock did not choose to reincarnate, Raditz would still not be able to revive him. "Okay, then bring back Gine to life. Hm... Where would she appear? It won''t be in where Planet Vegeta used to be right?" Raditz asked. If Gine really revived and appeared in space, she would suffocate and immediately die. "Don''t worry, the Saiyan named Gine has long since had her spirit brought to heaven. I''ll reconstruct her body, but she will have to leave heaven on her own and come to Earth." Shenron stated. He could not do two wishes with a single wish. "Okay, let''s just do that then." Raditz planned to ask Kami to help him bring Gine to Earth. Shenron''s red eyes shone for a moment. "Your wish has been granted. Farewell." Shenron said before he turned into a bright yellow light that split into 7 Dragon Balls and scattered across Earth. 44 Soul Assimilation Raditz stood in the Lookout, he was waiting for Kami to bring back Gine from Heaven. "Time is running out... Should I use next year''s wish to stop Cell? If I still can''t attain Super Saiyan by then, I guess that''s the best course of action." Raditz sighed. He has been stuck in the Pseudo Super Saiyan state for almost 2 years now. He had long since surpassed 400x gravity in the normal Gravity Chamber and switched to the improved model and was currently able to train in 500x Gravity. His Ki was lagging behind and he was pondering whether he should take some time to temper his spirit and Ki meditate. Raditz was naturally nervous to met his new mother. While waiting nervously for what felt like an eternity. Kami finally came back with Gine in tow. "Raditz!" Gine noticed Raditz and quickly ran up to him and give him a tight hug. "Ah!" Raditz was taken by surprise and froze. "I missed you so much! My little boy has grown so much!" Gine was tearing up. Tears dripped down her face. "M-mom." Raditz stammered and stiffly hugged Gine back. At that moment, Raditz felt like a huge burden in his heart and been lifted. It felt warm and comfortable in both his body and soul. As time passed, Raditz got more used to his new mother and began to talk about his experiences. He would of course not tell her that he had replaced her real son. "Oh! Kakarot has also grown up! So he even has a son now! How great! He''s even married!" Gine clapped her hands happily. Kami''s mind had been tense when he brought the new Saiyan over, but after seeing her interactions with Raditz, his worries disappeared. He even wondered if Goku''s family''s bloodline was special, for each and every Saiyan in their family to be kind, unlike the evil Saiyans like Vegeta. Raditz didn''t know why, but he felt more and more comfortable being with Gine and was now able to talk comfortably with his mother. Gine was especially happy that her two sons lived on Earth, a planet that was so peaceful a removed from all the killings. She was also very excited to meet Goku''s family. Raditz finished talking and brought Gine with him and flew to Goku''s home. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "This is?" Goku felt a sense of familiarity once he saw Gine, but he could not remember where he had seen her before. But once he noticed Gine''s Saiyan tail, he seemed to understand. "Ah! Raditz, could this be your wife?" Goku asked foolishly. But it couldn''t be helped, Gine looked young. For one, she died young. But the main reason is that Saiyans keep their youthful appearance and are always in their best condition for battles. Only when they are very old, will they quickly grow into an elderly appearance. "Didn''t I say all other Saiyans died out..." Raditz''s mouth twitched. Although Gine was as good as a stranger to him, he still did not have an Oedipus complex. "Oh! Right. Then, who is she?" Goku asked. "Little fool. Kakarot, it''s me, Gine. Your mother." Gine laughed and gave Goku a hug. "Ah? M-mom?" Goku was shocked and hugged back. Goku did not feel awkward about suddenly meeting his mother. He was quite laid back and at ease. Rather, it was Chichi that was more nervous. "G-greetings! M-mother-in-law!" Chichi quickly bowed twice in panic. "She''s my grandma? But she looks so young!" Gohan said confused. "Silly child. We Saiyans maintain our youthful appearances until around 80 years old. This is in order to be in our peak state so we can do our best in battles. Only at that time will we rapidly age to an elderly appearance." Gine rubbed Gohan and gently explained. "U-until 80? You''re able to keep your youth until you''re 80? I''m so envious!" Chichi rubbed her face, looking for any possible wrinkles. Raditz had a speechless look and wondered why the girls in the Dragon Ball World always complained about them aging and growing older. Yet they never used the Dragon Balls to wish for Eternal Youth. It didn''t take long for Gine to integrate into their family. Gine and Chichi started chatting, while Goku soon got bored. "You want to be called Goku? Okay, that is fine. I''m just happy you''re still alive. You look just like your father." Gine caressed Goku''s face. "Big brother said the same." Goku nodded. Gine started living with them, it was time to expand the house. It was a very simple job since everyone was abnormally strong. They cut some stones from big boulders and mountains, and some trees and made it into planks. After hammering and gluing everything, a big mansion-sized house was erected. Even though they taught Gine martial arts and invited her to train in the Gravity Chambers, Gine did not have much of an interest in fighting. She would only occasionally work out as if to just exercise her body. "Now that I think about it... Gine is- oops, I mean mom is obviously a righteous Saiyan. +1 righteous Saiyan. Pity, Bardock can''t be brought back. Otherwise, it would be +2." Raditz thought. Raditz was not in a hurry to begin training again. Gravity training had slowed down, it became harder and harder to improve now that he was training under 500x gravity. And the little gains in strength could not compare to the Super Saiyan Transformation. The Kaioken would get more and more redundant due to its high strain on its user''s body for each heartbeat they multiply their Ki. Although the Super Saiyan state does strain the body, but once you train and master the Super Saiyan state, there would barely be any strain on the user''s body. Raditz spent his days with Gine, sometimes taking her on a tour around the mountains, sometimes to a nearby town or village. Gine really liked the peaceful atmosphere. Of course, her Saiyan''s definition of peace was similar but also somewhat different from humans. Once, when they were in a small town, a pickpocketer tried to pickpocket Gine, only to end up getting strangled by her tail and thrashed and sent to the police. That was her way of handling the thief in a peaceful manner. The reason Raditz spent so much time with Gine was not that he liked her, but rather that he felt peaceful and comfortable in his heart and mind. Before he knew it, he had spent 3 months skipping training and only stayed with Gine daily. "Ah..." Raditz exclaimed. On this day, Raditz no longer felt the comfortable feeling when he stayed next to Gine. "What the heck have I been doing?!" Raditz felt he had really wasted his time, to skip 3 months of training. That means there was less than a year left until the Android Saga starts. "But, there has been some kind of change.. in my mind? Or soul?" Raditz felt his mind had turned clearer as compared to before the 3 months. Raditz sat down and entered meditation. "My spirit has grown? No, wait. It''s actually Raditz''s soul that has disappeared? Did I swallow his soul?" Raditz suddenly noticed his spirit had grown much bigger as compared to before. But the parts that were more foreign to him, which represented the old Raditz''s soul had disappeared. In the past, he could inspect the old Raditz''s soul and browse his memories, but now they were all gone. He couldn''t find the old Raditz''s soul anymore. The memories seem to have also been transferred to him, he no longer needed to browse the memories, but could simply recall them with a single thought as if they were his own memories. "Everything happened after I met Gine... Could it be that the old Raditz''s soul''s obsession was to meet his family? Although I did not meet Bardock, Goku looks really similar, so he could have maybe substituted for Bardock? Now that I''ve fulfilled his wishes, did he let go of everything?" Raditz speculated. When he first met Goku, the old Raditz''s emotions were so overwhelming when he talked about his parents that he even teared up. The same thing happened when Raditz met Gine. Raditz speculated that the comfortable feeling he felt when he spent time with Gine, was actually the old Raditz''s soul letting go of everything and passed it all over to him. The old Raditz''s soul had turned into pure soul energy and nurtured his soul. And only today, did he finish absorbing all of the pure soul energy. He would now, no longer be influenced by the old Raditz''s emotions. "I have the feeling... That I''ve become stronger...?" Raditz looked confused, he clenched his fist a few times. Raditz measured his battle power and was stunned. It had shot up from 9 million to 10 million. Even though he had not trained at all since he reached 9 million in battle power. "It''s real! Then... Why do I feel so confident? That I can'' become a Super Saiyan, right now...?" Raditz muttered in shock. Raditz would naturally not destroy his own training room. Knowing that the first few transformations would be very unstable and the energy would be uncontrollably leaking out to the surroundings, Raditz flew to Gizard Wasteland. 45 Super Saiyan! Super Saiyan! A place devoid of life, filled with cliffs, rocks, and sand. This was Gizard Wasteland. A nervous Raditz landed in this desolate place. Raditz took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. He hoped his confidence was real. The confidence that stems from his heart just came out of nowhere. But he would rather have blind belief in himself than give up on becoming a Super Saiyan. "I don''t want to just be a cannon-fodder, a side-character that can be dismissed with a single thought. I have already changed the story. I can also become a Super Saiyan!" Raditz thought of the original Raditz''s fate, Nappa''s fate. Everything had changed. This timeline no longer followed the original storyline. "HAAAAAAAAAAAH!!" Having done this countless times already, it only took Raditz a moment to transition into Pseudo Super Saiyan. His veins were popping out, but he stayed focused. His Ki continued increasing rapidly, a large part leaked out and spread to his surrounding. The ground rumbled and shook. The ground under Raditz''s feet within 10 meters sunk in and cracked. The golden aura wrapping around Raditz intensified like a raging flame. Raditz''s long hair was pulled upwards halfway and turned golden blond. His black pupils turned blue. He had finally become a Super Saiyan! "HAAAAAAAH!! AAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!" His strength was draining rapidly, Raditz kept holding on with all his might, just to keep the transformation going. His veins kept popping in and out, beads of sweat dripped down his face like a waterfall, not only soaking his clothes, but also slowly trying to fill up the huge crater under his feet. Raditz''s Ki kept rising higher and higher as if there was no limits to his potentials. His Ki continued increasing until lightning crackled and wrapped around his golden Super Saiyan aura. Crackle! Crackle! Just as the bluish lightning appeared, Raditz lost all his strength, the transformation was undone and he reverted back. His golden blond hair reverted back to black and fell down, his blue pupils turned into black again. With all his physical strength drained, Raditz fell weakly to the ground on his back. "Haah. Haah..." Raditz panted heavily. "I. I did it!! Hahaha!" Raditz laughed weakly. Because he was so focused on keeping the transformation, he did not notice the lightning crackle during the last moment of his Super Saiyan Transformation. Only after resting for over an hour, did Raditz get back on his feet and stand up. "I only managed to keep my transformation for a few seconds, maybe not even 5 seconds. But, I really did it!" Raditz smiled. He was still too exhausted and tired to try transforming again. Using the little bit of strength he had left, he slowly levitated up and floated back home. The next day, Raditz had fully rested and was brimming with vigor and excitement. He once again appeared on Gizard Wasteland. This time he managed to keep his Super Saiyan state for 3 seconds. "I think I just saw something? No, my mind must be playing tricks on me." Raditz felt like he saw something bluish streak past his body, he even felt like he heard something crackle. But the only thing he could think of was lightning. But that was just too unbelievable, Raditz quickly dismissed his delusions. Days after days passed, Raditz continued training to control his Super Saiyan Transformation. As he got more and more used to the transformation, he would not use brute force to keep it going. He kept making small adjustments both emotionally and physically. Even the way he rotated his Ki around his body was slowly making small changes to conform with his Super Saiyan Transformation. 1 month, 2 months... 6 months went by. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. Even though the gains he made were little, Raditz still saw the improvement and did not lose his motivation. The time he was able to keep up his transformation increased little by little. From 3 seconds to 4 seconds, 5 seconds... 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 20 seconds. After 6 months, Raditz was able to keep his transformation for 20 seconds. But he was not disheartened, but rather overjoyed. Lightning crackled, numerous blue colored arcs of lightning wrapped around Raditz. "This many lightning arcs are way too many for a Super Saiyan 2, this is obviously Super Saiyan 3!! And this endless Ki and power coursing through my body...!" Raditz felt so exhilarated every time he transformed into a Full Power Super Saiyan. The transformation immediately ceased and Raditz reverted back. The truth was that he could not keep up the Full Power Super Saiyan. Once his Super Saiyan transformation was moved up to Full Power, it just took him one second to drain all of his strength. The reason Raditz spent 6 months to reach this stage, was because if he doesn''t actively control his Super Saiyan state, it will automatically be moved up to Full Power. In the beginning, he could only keep his transformation for 3 seconds, there was barely any time for Raditz to get a feel of his Super Saiyan state. And he would also be completely exhausted and needed to rest the whole day to recover. Even though Raditz had heavily relied on the Rejuvenation Tanks to recover quicker. He still spent 6 months to reach this stage. He could now transition between Half Power and Full Power Super Saiyan. The Half Power was what Raditz believed was equal to Super Saiyan 2, and the Full Power was equal to Super Saiyan 3. "Next is to train the normal Super Saiyan state." Raditz actually got his priority reversed, he should have normally began to control and weaken his Super Saiyan state to the limit and get used to being in the Super Saiyan state for as long as possible and acquire the Mastered Super Saiyan state. But Raditz''s Super Saiyan Transformation was just too magical and wonderful, he just couldn''t help but try to find the limits of his Super Saiyan power. But not everything was his fault, Goku and Gohan''s first few crude Super Saiyan Transformations was not so difficult to control, Raditz had just been too focused on getting to know his limits, but he was never able to keep up the Full Powered Super Saiyan state and before he knew it, 6 months had already passed. "But all of it wasn''t a waste." Raditz smiled. "But seriously, my Super Saiyan 1 is equal to Super Saiyan 3?!" Raditz was overjoyed. "I remember always saying that if Raditz could become a Super Saiyan, he would look just as if he had transformed into a Super Saiyan 3... Don''t tell me it''s because of Raditz''s long hair that my Super Saiyan transformation is so strong? Or... is this also part of my transmigration perk? Just like how I can control my Great Ape Transformation without any training...?" Raditz could obviously just cut his hair to find out. But he thought it was quite stupid, if it really was so, that his Super Saiyan power was dependent on his hair length, he would lose out since a pure-blooded Saiyan''s hair doesn''t grow out. Raditz spent 3 months keeping his Super Saiyan state to the lowest power trying to master his Super Saiyan state. He didn''t manage to master it, but he made great improvements and could better handle his Super Saiyan state. Maybe due to his abnormal Super Saiyan Transformation, everything regarding his Super Saiyan state seemed much harder to improve and master. Raditz obviously wouldn''t acknowledge himself as talentless. Raditz in his Super Saiyan state held a big bag filled with 40 senzu beans. He would occasionally eat a senzu bean to keep his transformation. Yes, he was being wasteful. But there wasn''t much need in using senzu beans for training anymore, now that they had Rejuvenation Tanks. Senzu beans were only useful in real battles. Since Korin was doing his best to produce as many senzu beans as possible, there was naturally a surplus of senzu beans. Raditz did not believe the Z Team needed over 40 senzu beans just for the Android Saga and Cell Saga. Of course, Raditz only dared to hold 40 senzu beans in his hands when he''s not in combat. He had learned his lessons during the battle on Planet Namek. Raditz had spent two weeks flying around various forested areas and even scouted the surrounding forests of Ginger town, but he still could not find Cell''s Time Machine. He knew that once Bulma and Trunks find the Time Machine, it would probably get taken away so no one will be allowed to use it. Raditz didn''t have any plans to use the Time Machine either, but it wouldn''t hurt to be more prepared. Raditz had spent a few days to recall the original storyline. It was only very far into the future after Buu Saga that Future Trunks would come again, and that would only be on his own Time Machine. Raditz didn''t think it was feasible for him to steal Future Trunks'' Time Machine. Thus, Raditz was searching for Cell''s Time Machine. "That''s too bad. I had wanted to use the Dragon Balls to either regrow my hair or refill the Time Machine''s energy..." Raditz said in disappointment. He was naturally curious to know whether his Super Saiyan power was equal to a Super Saiyan 3 simply because his hair made him look as if he really was in a Super Saiyan 3 state. He wouldn''t cut off his hair unless he could have it regrown in a short time. The Androids Saga was just about to be upon the Z Team, he would not foolishly weaken himself in such a critical time. The other possible wish was for him to refuel the Time Machine so it would be ready to be used when there was the need. But now Raditz could only choose to collect the Dragon Balls and ask Shenron to help him find the Time Machine instead. Raditz spent some time collecting the Dragon Balls and had Shenron teleport him to the Time Machine''s location. "Hum... Looks like I need to spend another wish to repair the Time Machine." Raditz looked at the big hole in the glass cover of the Time Machine. Raditz wiped the moss covering the surface of the Time Machine and found the button to turn it into a capsule. Poof! White smoke engulfed the Time Machine. Once the smoke dispersed, only a tiny capsule remained. Raditz picked up the capsule and flew to his training room. He wouldn''t dare to hold valuable items in case they would be destroyed or lost in a battle. 46 24th World Martial Arts Tournament Begins! Time quickly passed. Raditz continued on mastering his Super Saiyan state every single day. He also did not forget Gine. Since Gine did not like to train, Raditz decided to take a trip to see his Tree of Might. It had been 3 years now, He hoped there would be a nice harvest. Though, he wasn''t sure if eating any would still bring him any gains in power with his current Battle Power. At least it was useful for Gine. He might also gift a few fruits to Tien Shinhan if he has any leftovers. It didn''t matter where he was, he would always be in the state of training as long as he can keep his Super Saiyan state active. Raditz spent 5 days flying to the small brown dwarf planet. "Oh! Looks like I''ll need to find a better planet." The brown dwarf planet had basically been sucked dry by the Tree of Might. The dwarf planet was about to be completely destroyed, although Raditz could ask Shenron to restore the planet, it was just too small and useless. Shenron couldn''t improve nor create a new planet, but it could fully restore a planet. So Raditz was more interested in finding a bigger and filled with more nutrition and lifeforce. That way the Tree of Might would be able to grow for a long time without him needing to constantly restore the planet. "Let''s play a visit to one of Frieza''s bases and grab their database." Raditz decided to pay a visit to Planet Frieza 79 after Cell Saga. Frieza Force had an enormous database of all the planets they had scouted. It was much more efficient to rely on their huge database to find a suitable planet for him to plant the Tree of Might. Maybe if it was in the past while he still was weak, Raditz would have hesitated whether to exterminate the natives and occupy the planet to be exclusively his garden. But now, with his current strength, Raditz felt little to no enticement from the Tree of Might. That''s why he would rather look for a planet devoid of living beings. Raditz picked up 10 ripe fruits. Once he pulled out the tree and had it return to its seed form, the dwarf planet crumbled apart. Raditz hurriedly got on his spaceship and flew back to Earth. Since flying on the spaceship was also training for him, he was in no hurry to teleport back to Earth. Raditz ate one fruit and after measuring his battle power, found out that the fruit had only increased his battle power by 10,000. He lost all interest in the fruit. Maybe if he can harvest a few thousand fruits each year, would he be interested. 20 fruits would only equal 200,000 battle power if the fruits would not give even more diminishing returns. Once he arrived back at home, Raditz gave Gine a single fruit. Considering how weak Gine was, a single fruit was more than enough for her. She might even waste a big of its energy already. After Gine ate the fruit, Raditz scanned her battle power, it had increased to 33,000. Gine''s battle power used to be over 3,000, she did not gain the whole 50,000 battle power and only managed to absorb 60% of the energy. Raditz left 3 fruits with Gine, telling her only to eat one fruit at a time, and only after she had fully digested the energy contained in the previous fruit. Beep! Beep! Beep! Suddenly, Raditz''s cellphone beeped. "Hum... Ah! That''s right. I almost forgot! It''s time for the WMA to begin." Raditz patted his head. It was time to participate in the WMA and make sure that Satan does NOT win and become the Champion. Raditz wanted to like a leisurely life, and who wouldn''t want to be rich if they could? There was just so much mouthwatering food he wanted to eat. It couldn''t be helped since they ate just soo much. Just thinking of all the delicious food, Raditz''s mouth started salivating. He quickly wiped away the saliva on his lips. Of course, the other reason was that he had promised Chichi, so one of their family just had to win and become the champion. It was part of becoming a renowned Martial Artist. Only by being famous, would cash start to roll in. It could be to be hired to shoot a commercial or receive the World Peace prize for saving the world. But to do that, they had to be famous. Satan was the champion in the original storyline, that was why he could use his fame to trick people into believing he defeated Cell. The agreement Raditz made with Chichi was for them to earn a ton of money this year. If he wasn''t able to do that, Chichi would forbid Gohan from training again. Raditz decided to invite everyone in the Z Team in order to make the WMA exciting and to make sure the people on Earth would not think their future fights would be mere "tricks". Like hanging on thin invisible threads to "fly" and detonate bombs to shoot out "Ki blasts". "What? Participate in the WMA? The Androids will appear in just 5 days!" Piccolo was surprised by Raditz''s invitation. "Sure! I would love to see just how much I have improved! Big brother I want to fight you in the WMA!" Goku said excitedly. "I''ll show everyone just how much I''ve improved!" Gohan said happily. Goku was so excited that he teleported to invite the others in the Z Team. Raditz had originally planned to do just that, but seeing that Goku had already left, Raditz just shrugged his shoulders.

You guys are going to play around? The androids are just around the corner!" Bulma reprimanded. Maybe because the Z Team just had to let the androids be created, that Bulma felt so nervous and panicky. If only the Z Team had been willing to follow her suggestion to kill Dr. Gero before he had created the androids... "Come on. There are only 5 days left, it''s not like we can make any improvement in only 5 days." Raditz said dismissively. Raditz, Goku, Gohan, Piccolo, and Gine flew through the sky. Chichi never learned to really control Ki, so she sat on Goku''s Flying Nimbus. When they landed on Papaya Island, Bulma, Yamcha, Puar, Oolong, and Vegeta were already there. "Hey, Vegeta is wearing Kame School''s training gi!" Goku said in surprise. Vegeta was apparently wearing the same orange training clothes as himself and Yamcha. Gohan was wearing Piccolo style purple gi, while Raditz wore blue training gi. Vegeta scowled upon hearing Goku. He had specially come to join the WMA just to experience Gohan''s strength. Since neither Goku nor Raditz had mentioned that they had become Super Saiyans, Vegeta''s only focus was Gohan. Vegeta never learned that the Super Saiyan was just a transformation. Raditz had also reverted back in order to conserve his stamina for the tournament. Everyone greeted each other joyfully except Vegeta who stood at the corned with a scowl on his face. Raditz and his group went forward and registered for the tournament. Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, Nappa and Launch arrived while they were still registering. Nappa was wearing a green dougi just like Tien Shinhan. And a blue-haired Launch was holding on to a baby in her bosom. "Raditz, couldn''t you have told us ahead of the tournament?" Tien Shinhan jokingly complained. "Sorry, I forgot all about it as well. If not for my cellphone''s alarm I would have missed the WMA." Raditz said. "Tien Shinhan! Congratulations! You got a baby!" Goku said with a smile. "It''s not mine..." Tien Shinhan said awkwardly. Although the blond Launch had always been chasing him, he never liked her law-breaking personality. Ever since he stopped doing evil, he has had a great dislike toward evilness. "Don''t tell me it''s Nappa''s kid?" Raditz had a dumbfounded look, stared at Nappa. "Ahahaha! You got me!" Nappa laughed proudly. Nappa was big and burly like a gorilla. The blond Launch has strange taste for manly and muscular men. Once she set her eyes on Nappa, she would always rob and threaten others to make a sumptuous banquet for Nappa. It brought a great headache for Tien Shinhan, but for Nappa, it was great. He had no qualms about Launch robbing and kidnapping 5-star chefs to make his meals every day. In fact, her actions were more in line with his personality. The food on Earth was so much better than the crude meals he has had for his entire life. He couldn''t have enough of all the mouthwatering food made by the best 5-star chefs in the world. Nappa, who used to be a subordinate, was now treated like a king by Launch really enjoyed his current life. "I don''t have the talent to become a Super Saiyan, the martial arts on Earth is just too complicated. Hehehe. Vegeta told me that with Gohan as an example, it is likely that all Saiyan hybrids mixed with Earthling blood had great potential. Gohan, just wait till my kid becomes a Super Saiyan! Hahaha!" Nappa laughed and patted Gohan''s shoulder. It was unknown whether Nappa liked Launch or that he simply liked her treatment. But more than anything, he most likely just wanted a Saiyan hybrid kid. "Is it fine to say that in front of Launch...?" Raditz thought and glanced at the blue-haired Launch who was smiling gently back at him. Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu and Nappa registered for the WMA. "The registration is closing in 5 minutes!" The staff responsible for registering participants shouted. "Man, when is Krilling coming? He''s going to miss the registration." Yamcha said. "1 minute left!" The staff yelled. "Waaaait! I''m here!!" Krillin flew down from the sky, panting heavily. Krillin quickly finished registering, walked up to Raditz. "Raditz! I almost came late! Couldn''t you tell me ahead next time?" Krillin was still panting. "Don''t fret it, you made it." Raditz said nonchalantly. 47 Tournament 1 The Z Team passed the preliminaries in a breeze. A single slap sent their opponent flying out of the ring. The only unlucky contestant was Vegeta''s opponent who had all his bones broken and sent to the hospital. Raditz did not know how they could afford to treat all the contestants that passed the preliminaries to eat their fill. But now with Raditz, Goku, Gohan, Nappa, and Vegeta. The 5 Saiyans were emptying their restaurant. Krillin, Yamcha, and Tien Shinhan with their faces flushed with embarrassment were distancing from them as if they were strangers. Meanwhile, Piccolo, with a flushed face slowly sipped on a glass of water. Master Roshi and a young blond teenage girl managed to arrive in time before the tournament began. From the audience''s seats, the blond girl shouted: "Go, go, go! My cute prince! Beat them all up and take the championship!!" "Shut your trap!" Vegeta looked embarrassed. "Ahahaha! Cute prince?" Krillin laughed. "Grrr... Pray you won''t meet me in the tournament." Vegeta directed his killing intent at Krillin and gave him a chill in the spine. The blond teenage girl was Airi. She came from a big family, although her family was wealthy, her life was restricted. She never got to leave the sphere of her family''s influence. One day, with the help of the house butler, she managed to escape and run from home. Just as she arrived in a small town, she got abducted by a bunch of human traffickers. Just as she was desparingly watching the men rip off her clothes and unbuckling their pants... Her prince charming came flying down from the sky and saved her. Then he asked: "Are you willing to live with me on a small island in the sea?" ... Airi stuck out her tongue and with a bright smile, waved her hands vigorously at Vegeta. "Uehehe! So energetic!" Master Roshi licked his lips and grabbed Airi''s butt that was shaking as she vigorously waved her arms. Bang! Airi pulled out an iron baseball bat from who knows where and smashed Master Roshi''s head so hard the metal bat deformed. Then she threw the bat away. Clang Clang. Airi''s movement was fluid as if she had done this hundreds of times already. Everyone was surprised that there was a Junior division. In the past, the tournament had no adult division and junior division, everyone regardless of their age fought in the same tournament. Even in the last tournament, the 23rd WMA did not separate kids. But now, anyone under the age of 15 could only join the Junior Division. It was too bad for Gohan, he was still only 10 years old and could only join the Junior Division. Everyone leisurely watched until the Junior division ended. A little girl named Videl fought Gohan in the finals. Gohan naturally won, Videl ended up crying. Gohan comforted Videl before he went up and received the prize money. The Junior Division''s prize money was a pitiful 100,000 Zeni. It looked more like a consolation prize than prize money when compared to the adult division''s 5 million Zeni. This time''s WMA prize money was actually 5 million Zeni, it was 10 times that of the previous WMA prize money. Even Chichi''s eyes were glowing in gold. Of course, some did not even bother watching the Junior Division. Goku, Nappa, and Vegeta continued wolfing down their meals in the dining hall. The Adult Division finally started. "Guys, let''s play fair. What do you say, we won''t be using any senzu beans after the fight?" Krillin suggested. "Yeah! Yeah! That sounds great!" Yamcha hurriedly agreed.

"You''re only saying that because you two still haven''t learned to use Kaioken, right?" Raditz rolled his eyes. Though, the only reason he said that was because he felt he would lose out if he were to use his abnormal Super Saiyan transformation early. "I''m okay with that." Tien Shinhan nodded. Although he would likely suffer much if he were to use Kaioken early in the tournament. There were 16 contestants that passed the preliminaries and entered the tournament. Raditz, Goku, Piccolo, Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, Nappa, Krillin, Yamcha, and Vegeta occupied 9 spots already. The remaining 6 contestants were Ramo, Pintar, Spopovich, Mr. Satan, Jewel, Killa, and Mighty Mask The matches were decided by picking lots. Raditz vs Mighty Mask Yamcha vs Ramo Krillin vs Killa Mr. Satan vs Spopovich Tien Shinhan vs Pintar Vegeta vs Jewel Chiaotzu vs Nappa Goku vs Piccolo The first match began. Raditz stepped up on the arena, his opponent was a weirdo dressed in a costume-like mask with a pointy top, covered his face down to his shoulders with a long cape. Raditz stood with his arms crossed, the match began and Mighty Mask ran to Raditz with a punch. Raditz couldn''t even be bothered to take out his arms, his tail smacked Mighty Mask with a crisp sound, sent him out of the arena. The 2nd match Yamcha vs Ramo Ramo was a dark-skinned muscular man with an afro. Yamcha showed off and toyed with Ramo before knocking him out. Then he waved at the audience. The 3rd match Krillin vs Killa Killa was a muscular, dark-skinned man with his arms covered in white bandages. "Little fellow, you should just give up." Killa looked at the short and small Krillin in contempt. "Don''t look down on me just because I''m short!" Krillin got ticked. Everyone always looked down on him because of his short height. Krillin really liked to show off. He let Killa attack him without counterattacking back. He simply dodged all of Killa''s punches and kicks with ease, he even closed his eyes. "This is impossible!" Killa continued attacking until he was all drenched in sweat and panting. "Humph! You shouldn''t have looked down on me!" Krillin appeared behind Killa and kicked him in the butt, sending him down the arena. The 4th match Mr. Satan vs Spopovich Mr. Satan jumped up on the arena and started showing off his "martial arts". He jumped and kicked, punched out a flurry of fists and kicks in the air until he started panting. He then turned around and faced the audience and raised his arm as if to ask the audience to cheer. The audience seemed to have been captivated by Mr. Satan''s quick punches and kicks and started cheering for him. Spopovich was a redhaired big and tall muscular man that looked like a wrestler. "Seriously? That cheap stunt was enough to captivate the audience..." Raditz was speechless. Although the earlier matches were of higher level, none of it was actually shown since the battles ended one-sidedly. The match began, Spopovich was like a big dumb muscular oaf, rushed forward and swung widely his fists with all his strength so badly he lost balance after a few swings and fell to the floor. Mr. Satan easily dodged all of Spopovich''s attacks, once Spopovich fell, Mr. Satan appeared behind Spopovich and kicked him out of the arena. "#%@! What the heck! Is that big oaf just a bodybuilder or what? What kind of idiot swings his whole body forward with his punch and falls..." Raditz ridiculed Spopovich who didn''t even know how to punch correctly, yet entered the WMA. The 5th match Tien Shinhan vs Pintar Pintar was a giant fatty, Tien Shinhan''s height only reached his waist. Tien Shinhan did not play around and finished the fight in an instant. The 6th match Vegeta vs Jewel Jewel was a handsome blond young man. He held a red rose between his fingers, looked at the audience and winked. Numerous women were charmed and started cheering and confessing to him. Unfortunately for him, Vegeta simply punched Jewel in the face and sent him crashing into the wall. His face was ruined and sent to the hospital. 48 Tournament 2 The 7th match Chiaotzu vs Nappa Both of them bowed before they began fighting. Raditz had thought Chiaotzu would win. But after a long drawn out fight, they switched to Ki attacks and Chiatzu ended up losing the match. Nappa''s Ki blast almost hit the audience, Tien Shinhan had hurriedly appeared in front of the audience and deflected the Ki blast, sending it to the sky before it detonated. All of the audience were staring dumbfoundedly at the explosion in the sky. This time, there was no one shouting "tricks". Nappa looked as if he had made a big achievement by defeating Chiaotzu. Only to receive an earful from Tien Shinhan. Vegeta looked angrily at Chiaotzu as if he wanted to find faults with Chiaotzu for losing. Vegeta had wanted to get his revenge from last time, but now it wasn''t possible anymore. The 8th match Goku vs Piccolo As Goku was the previous WMA''s champion, there were lots of cheering once Goku stepped on the arena. Goku was really excited, even though Goku and Piccolo sparred almost every day. The two started fighting intensely, after a few minutes, their clothes were filled with holes. Piccolo spat out some blood and took off his turban and weighted cape. Goku also took off his weighted clothes. The two resumed the fight. "I really don''t understand why they would fight with weights on first, only to later remove them. All you gained was some additional injuries..." Raditz looked weirdly at the duo. This battle was the most exciting one as of yet. All the audience cheered crazily, shouting from the top of their lungs. "Goku!! Don''t hold back! Pluck out Piccolo''s antennae! Bite him!! You must win!!" Chichi started shouting scary things. Piccolo seemed to hold back, but even so, he was piling up small injuries on Goku. For every 5 hits, Goku managed to put in one hit. "Goku, let''s get serious." said Piccolo. "Alright. HAAAAAAAH!!" Goku nodded and transformed into a Super Saiyan. His Ki multiplied many times over. Piccolo''s Ki also multiplied, he had activated Kaioken. Piccolo had been leading the fight was now starting to lose. "Piccolo''s Ki is really big!" Raditz exclaimed. Piccolo''s Ki was more than half of Goku''s current Ki. If he could strengthen his body some more, he would be able to use a stronger Kaioken and maybe match Goku for a short while. Piccolo was losing the fight, pulled back and created some distance between him and Goku. He quickly fired his signature attack, the Special Beam Cannon. Goku blocked the attack with a Kamehameha, they were in a stalemate for a while, until Goku increased the output of the Kamehameha and overwhelmed the Special Beam Cannon. Piccolo surrendered. Goku looked a little exhausted after the Kamehameha. Piccolo''s Special Beam Cannon was really strong and took a great deal of his Ki. All the audience cheered, this was the best and most exciting battle they had seen. Though, many were discussing about Goku transforming into a Golden Warrior. The next 4 matches were: Raditz vs Yamcha Krillin vs Mr. Satan Tien Shinhan vs Vegeta Chiatzu vs Goku After a short recession, the next match began. The 1st match Raditz vs Yamcha "Sigh. I guess this is goodbye to the prize money." Yamcha sighed. Even so, he did not surrender before the match began. They had a short spar, but after a while, Raditz felt it was a waste of time and kicked Yamcha out of the ring. The 2nd match Krillin vs Mr. Satan Mr. Satan once again tried to show off, but this time the audience booed. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. Krillin generously allowed Mr. Satan to punch him once. But who knew, even before Krillin was done talking, Mr. Satan punched his chin. Krillin was still talking, his tongue stuck out when his chin was hit, he bit his tongue badly and bleed. Krillin was really angry and took out his anger on Mr. Satan''s face. After a whole minute, Mr. Satan''s face was swollen like a balloon. "Why?! You said I could punch you!" Mr. Satan cried out with injustice. Krillin felt embarrassed and quickly kicked him out of the arena. The 3rd match Tien Shinhan vs Vegeta Vegeta roared and attacked Tien Shinhan. Airi was cheering for her prince, but Vegeta couldn''t hear her. And it was unknown whether he would have cared. Tien Shinhan had become really strong. He had been working really hard since Raditz took him and everyone else to King Kai''s planet. He learned the Kaioken, he also trained in the Gravity Chamber. Then, he learned Yardratian''s meditation techniques. Each and every one of those things had greatly benefitted his training. Unfortunately, Vegeta did not know Kaioken otherwise, he would have been able to force Tien Shinhan to also use Kaioken against him. Tien Shinhan dominated the battle. Vegeta got angry and attacked with his Big Bang Attack, it''s explosion range catch the majority of the audience in the attack. Tien Shinhan quickly activated Kaioken and deflected the attack far into the distance. After a loud explosion, a small mushroom-shaped cloud of smoke appeared in the distance. The audience were shell-shocked. That attack drained all of Vegeta''s Ki. Tien Shinhan was very upset with Vegeta''s attitude of disregarding the innocent audience. He did not hold back and beat him up really badly. Even though the others had also used Ki attacks, none of them attacked in a way that would let the audience get caught in their attacks. Well, except for the stupid Nappa. Airi ran up and held the unconscious Vegeta. She stared angrily at Tien Shinhan. Somehow, she did not seem to have minded or had simply ignored the fact that the Big Bang Attack''s explosion range would have also caught her in it. The 4th match Nappa vs Goku. Nappa couldn''t even touch Goku''s clothes. The difference was just so big. It was like a game of chase. Goku easily dodged around and played for a while before he sent Nappa out of the ring. 49 Tournament 3 The Quarterfinals: Raditz vs Krillin Tien Shinhan vs Goku The first match Raditz vs Krillin There was no need to say anything. Krillin simply surrendered the match. the 2nd match Tien Shinhan vs Goku Tien Shinhan did not beat around the bush, he activated 5x Kaioken. An incredible Ki appeared, although it was smaller than Piccolo''s Ki, it was not something Goku could dismiss. Goku had no choice but transform into a Super Saiyan. The Kaioken was too much of a burden to Goku since he was conserving his strength for the final to fight Raditz. They fought intensively and brought the battle to the sky. The difference was too big between a 5x Kaioken Tien Shinhan and Super Saiyan Goku. Tien Shinhan switched the battle to Ki attacks and fired his signature attack, the Kikoho. Tien Shinhan''s Kikoho was really strong. Once Tien Shinhan finished firing 6 Kikoho, the whole arena was gone, replaced by a deep and endless square pit. Since it wasn''t a life and death battle, Tien Shinhan did not burn his lifeforce to continue firing more Kikoho. The Kikoho was truly an overpowered attack unless one was on guard before or the difference in power was just too great. Once hit by the first Kikoho, one would stay as a helpless target until the attacker finishes all his Kikoho attacks. Goku slowly made his way out of the pit, he floated up. His orange gi had turned into rags, with blood painting his body. Tien Shinhan had exhausted all his Ki, the Kaioken had deactivated. But Goku was still a Super Saiyan, his Ki had dropped considerably, but a Super Saiyan was none the less still powerful. Tien Shinhan sighed and surrendered. Raditz was curious that if Tien Shinhan had fired over 10 Kikoho attacks, would Goku even still be alive by then? The final match Raditz vs Goku Raditz felt a bit bad, seeing how Goku was all bloodied and exhausted from the previous matches, while he had been breezing through his matches. Goku knew his condition well, he knew he could not fight for long, his stamina and physical strength was drained from the previous fight with Piccolo and Tien Shinhan. And his body was filled with injuries, especially from Tien Shinhan''s incredible 5x Kaioken Kikoho. Goku started the match by transforming into a Super Saiyan. Raditz also became a Super Saiyan. Goku was just in too much of a disadvantage from his previous matches, Raditz easily dominated the fight and knocked out Goku. It was unknown whether Chichi was just being polite to Raditz, or because her mother-in-law, Gine sat beside her, or because they were all living together as a big family, thus it didn''t matter who won the prize money. But Chichi didn''t cheer nor shout to either Raditz or Goku during the match. After training for 3 months trying hard to master the Super Saiyan state, Raditz could now stay in the Super Saiyan state with the lowest power for 2 minutes, the Half Power for 10 seconds, and Full Power for just a measly 1 second. Of course, the time for each state is when Raditz is in his peak condition. Bang! Vegeta punched the wall. He was at first confused by Goku''s transformation, his golden hair and sudden spike in Ki. But after seeing Raditz do the same transformation, he understood that this was the Super Saiyan Transformation. Vegeta was in a foul mood after learning that all three of Goku''s family had become Super Saiyans. A Mid-Class Warrior had become a Super Saiyan, even a Low-Class Warrior had become a Super Saiyan. Even a halfling Saiyan with a much weaker Saiyan heritage was a Super Saiyan. Yet he, the Super Elite Class Warrior, the Prince of Saiyans was not a Super Saiyan. Vegeta was still all banged up and weak. But he disregarded Airi who was supporting him and slowly floated away.

The announcer clad in black costume and black shades spoke into the mic. "This is Raditz, the big brother of the previous WMA Champion, Son Goku! And the Junior Division''s Champion, Son Gohan is also Goku''s son! Their whole family is a family of champions!!" The announcer said excitedly. The announcer then handed over a paper bag filled with 5 million Zeni. Everyone clapped and cheered. It was their most exciting WMA they had ever seen. Chichi was especially clapping hard and excited upon seeing Raditz receive the paper bag. "At least now they won''t mistake Gohan''s name for a meal during Cell Tournament." thought Raditz. Gohan was now well known to many people. The TV Announcer filming the Cell Tournament won''t now think Gohan is a lunchboy. Seeing that Chichi was looking fanatically at the paper bag in his hand, Raditz took out 1 million Zeni and put it in his clothes. Then handed over the paper bag to Chichi who hugged the money joyfully. "Seriously, aren''t you a princess..." Lampooned Raditz inwardly. Mr. Satan was staring at Raditz, Goku, and Gohan with stars in his eyes. "Great Champion! Please teach me your martial arts!" Mr. Satan went down on his knees and begged. Raditz ignored him and left. Mr. Satan then turned around to beg to Goku. "Ehhh... Sorry, but we''re kinda busy saving the world." said Goku. Clearly thinking of the Androids that were coming in 5 days. "I''m willing to pay 50,000 Zeni in tuition fees!" Mr. Satan bowed so deep his forehead hit the ground. "Goku!! Quickly accept him! Why didn''t I think of this! We''re a family of martial artists! Why didn''t we think of opening a dojo?" Chichi pushed past the crowd and pulled Goku. "But Chichi, we don''t have time to open a dojo right now. In five days-" Goku scratched his head. "It''s fine! Saving the world can wait! You need to put food on the table!" Chichi said decisively. "But don''t we have the prize money...?" Goku asked confused. Since Raditz had won 5 million Zeni. As long as they used it sparingly, it would last their big family of 5 a long time. "That''s Raditz money! Don''t you feel ashamed? We''re opening a dojo once we get home, immediately!" Chichi stood akimbo. Raditz, Goku, and Gohan stared at the paper bag filled with the prize money in Chichi''s hand but didn''t dare to argue. Thanks to Mr. Satan''s idea of paying tuition fees. Chichi started making a big recruitment banner for their family dojo. "The new Son Style Dojo is recruiting disciples! The big family of three Champions: Son Raditz, Son Goku, and Son Gohan." Were written on the big banner. "Hey... I don''t recall having a family name..." Raditz had apparently been renamed to Son Raditz just now. "Isn''t it fine? It''s better if we all have the same family name, it''ll increase the cohesion and popularity of our dojo." Said Chichi. Chichi quickly convinced Gine as well, now her new name was Son Gine. After staying behind and recruiting disciples for a whole hour, they managed to recruit 50 enthusiastic disciples. The annual tuition fee for adults were 50,000 Zeni, for juniors under the age of 15 were 20,000. They recruited 20 adults and 30 juniors, bringing their annual income to 1,6 million Zeni. Chichi''s eyes were shining with Zeni signs. Even calling herself a genius for coming up with such a method. Raditz asked Tien Shinhan how much their tuition fees were for the Tien-Shin Style Dojo. It was only 20,000 Zeni for adults, and free for juniors. Chichi felt a bit embarrassed, but she wouldn''t stupidly lower the fees now. The Son family brought their 50 disciples back to Mt. Paozu. Once they arrived back at home, they started building the dojo. After cutting down many trees and cutting numerous big boulders and even half a small mountain, they built the dojo a few kilometers away from their home. Even Piccolo was pulled in by Chichi to help build the dojo. She even tried to rename him to Son Piccolo, but Piccolo also hurriedly agreed to teach in the dojo when he was free before he was forced to be renamed. The dojo was done building the next day. Some people even moved over their families to live in Mt. Paozu. While others moved out from their home to live in Mt. Paozu. It couldn''t be helped, Goku''s family just lived too far away from the cities. It was pretty difficult to keep living in the city and commute for several hours each day to come to the dojo and then commute back home for yet another few hours. Everyone was smart enough to bring a house capsule before coming here, after they had chosen a good spot, the uncapsuled their house. Raditz didn''t mind teaching the disciples for a bit. Since the only part of his training was to master the Super Saiyan state, he was constantly training wherever he went. Piccolo was first responsible for teaching the juniors, but he was too fierce and Chichi kicked him out. Since Gohan was of similar age to the juniors, Chichi let him teach them. Videl who had lost to Gohan and cried in the Junior Division during the WMA, was now looking at Gohan with starry eyes. With her ability, she wasn''t able to tell just how strong Gohan was during the Junior Division. But now that Gohan was teaching the juniors, he would naturally reveal some of his strength. Videl had always been a martial arts enthusiast, maybe influenced by her father, Mr. Satan who wanted to become the world''s strongest martial artist, she herself loved martial arts. The juniors were so excited, they wanted to learn how to fly and shot out explosive energy attacks. But most of them were constantly asking when they could also transform into the "Golden Warriors". The transformation was so cool for these young fellows. Of course, that would never be possible. Since there were quite many juniors, Goku and Raditz would sometimes rotate and help Gohan in instructing the juniors. Then for the adults, Piccolo, Goku, and Raditz would rotate in that order every day and instruct. 50 Android Saga Begins Chichi was finally happy to be in a martial arts family. Now she was even pushing Gohan to train harder and gain even more fame so more people would join their dojo. There wasn''t much they could teach them in just 4 days. They had just begun to teach some basic training and work on their bodies. Like carrying weights and running laps around Mt. Paozu. Mt. Paozu had many scary beasts and giant dinosaurs roaming. During their first day of running laps, all the adults were screaming their lungs off, while the juniors were crying an ocean filled with tears. Videl was even snatched by a pterodactyl, Gohan jumped up and knocked down the pterodactyl and carried Videl down. It wasn''t in the Saiyan''s nature to waste food, they took a short break and roasted the big pterodactyl. Along the way, they met numerous beasts and dinosaurs, some were friends with Icarus and Gohan and even came forward to gently rub Gohan. Before they knew it, it was already time to fight the androids. Raditz, Goku, Gohan and Piccolo flew to an island 9 kilometers southwest of South City. The time was 9 o''clock, one hour before the androids would attack the city on the island. Raditz''s group wasn''t the first to arrive, Bulma, Yamcha, Krillin and Vegeta were already there. Bulma came because she was interested in seeing the androids. As a scientist herself, how could she not want to see an android created by Dr. Gero. And one that is so overwhelmingly powerful that even Future Trunks who is a Super Saiyan could not defeat. After waiting for a bit, Tien Shinhan and Nappa arrived. Vegeta stared with hostility at them, seemingly wanting to take revenge for his loss against Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu, as for Nappa, he was likely still angry over his betrayal. "Hey, Krillin. You don''t look well. What''s wrong?" Goku greeted cheerfully. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "How am I supposed to be in a good mood when we''re about to fight those monsters... We''re not all Super Saiyans, you know." Krillin was bummed. "Tien Shinhan, where is Chiaotzu?" Gohan asked. "I left him out, he isn''t ready for a fight like this." said Tien Shinhan. The Z Team waited until it was 10 o''clock. Yajirobe came flying in a hovercar. "Here, I brought you guys some senzu beans from Sage Korin." Yajirobe handed over a cloth bag filled with some senzu beans to Goku. "Wow, thanks a bunch! Give my regards to Korin." Goku said happily. "Well, have fun." Yajirobe jumped back into his car. "Huh? Hey, Yajirobe aren''t you going to fight?" Goku asked a foolish question. "Unlike you idiots, I''m not suicidal. As if I''m going to stick around with you guys!" Yajirobe turned on the engine and flew away. "Seriously. Goku you want to kill that fatty? He is only stronger than that Satan guy..." Raditz said. "Ahahaha! Is that so? That''s true, his Ki is too weak. Yajirobe, that fellow has been skipping training ever since we fought King Piccolo." Goku laughed foolishly and scratched his head. Boom! Yajirobe''s hovercar that had flown a fair distance exploded and crashed in the sea. Two tiny black dots hovered next to the explosion before flying down to the city below. "Yajirobe!" Gohan yelled. "Huh... That looks familiar..." Raditz muttered. The group was shocked that they could not sense those two''s Ki. "They don''t have any Ki because they are androids." Gohan assumed. Krillin went to check on Yajirobe since they could still sense his Ki, he wasn''t dead at least. Goku left the senzu beans with Bulma. "That''s a good idea, lest they get ruined in battle." Raditz nodded his head. The rest of the Z Team spread out and landed in the city. Since they could not sense the androids'' Ki, they would have to rely on their eyes. Raditz assumed the two androids were Dr. Gero and #19 and not #17 and #18. So he wasn''t in a hurry to find them and just leisurely walked around the streets. "Hey! Isn''t that Raditz? The Champion of the 24th WMA?" People recognized Raditz and started gossiping. "Raditz! Please can I have a picture with you?" A young man shouted. "Can I have your autograph?" A young girl waved a piece of paper. Raditz was pretty free so he cooperated. After everyone left, Raditz even went and bought an ice cream cone. Similar scenes happened to Goku, Gohan, Piccolo and Tien Shinhan. All of them had shined during the WMA and gained some fame. After a while, Yamcha''s Ki dropped so drastically that everyone knew something had happened to him. Everyone hurriedly flew to Yamcha. Only Raditz who was still eating his ice cream cone looked a bit out of place. Yamcha was lying on the ground with an arm thick hole in his stomach. "I''ll bring back and feed him a senzu bean." Raditz held the ice cream cone in one hand and grabbed Yamcha with his other hand and flew away. "It''s good that the story is following the original storyline here." Raditz smiled. The unknown was the most troublesome. Since the first two androids appearing was indeed Dr. Gero and #19, Raditz intended to take his time until #18, #17 and #16 appear. He wasn''t sure they would be able to defeat them right away, but as long as this timeline follows the original storyline, then these three androids were not evil. It matters little whether they defeat the androids or not. Since Raditz had taken Cell''s Time Machine, he had confirmed that Cell exists in this timeline. "Hm... I wonder if I can ignore the fact that the Hyperbolic Time Chamber''s door will disappear once I stay beyond 2 years in it. I''ve already entered for one year. So If I enter again and stay longer than a year this time, the door will disappear. Hm... If only I could prolong the time I can use Full Powered Super Saiyan but just a bit more, then I should be able to blow up a hole from that dimension and come back here. Though, my base battle power seems quite low as compared to Gotenks..." Raditz thought. Raditz was pretty sure that Gohan would be able to transform into a Super Saiyan 2 anytime soon. Gohan had trained much harder in than he did in the original storyline, there was nothing holding him back this time. Raditz was confident in himself as well, he still had another year to train in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, it was more than enough for him to increase the time he can keep the Half Powered Super Saiyan state. Even without Gohan, Raditz was confident in defeating Perfect Cell. Raditz arrived at Bulma''s spot and took back the senzu bean bag. He fed one senzu bean to Yamcha. Krillin had brought back Yajirobe who had almost drowned in the sea. There were a few loud explosions in the city, then everyone flew to a deserted area. Goku''s Ki spiked, he had become a Super Saiyan, but his Ki was erratic. "Huh...? Don''t tell me he actually got the heart disease now..." Raditz was speechless. He had urged Goku to take the medicine he got from Trunks even if he wasn''t sick. But since Raditz had spent most of the last year on training his Super Saiyan Transformation on his own. He didn''t know if Goku had taken the medicine. But from sensing Goku''s erratic Ki, Raditz was pretty sure Goku had ignored his words. "This is bad! Those, those guys. The androids can absorb energy!! I have to tell them!" Yamcha yelled and flew toward the Z Team. Raditz and Krillin also flew to the Z Team. Goku was dominating the fight against #19 until he fired a Ki beam which was then absorbed by #19. Goku was already panting, the only reason no one pointed it out was because Goku''s Ki was so big and he was dominating the fight. "Oh no! Watch out! Those androids can absorb energy with those round things in their palms!" Yamcha yelled. No one knew why he had continued watching the fight, and only warned after seeing #19 start absorbing Goku''s Ki beam. But once #19 absorbed the energy, he got a lot stronger and was now beating Goku. Raditz appeared behind Goku and pulled him back. "Hey, didn''t I tell you to eat your medicine?" Raditz threw Goku to the back with the rest of the Z Team who were watching the fight from the sidelines. "You are Raditz, the new WMA Champion. And also Son Goku''s elder brother." Dr. Gero spoke robotically. "You are up to date." Raditz raised his eyebrow. The WMA was just 5 days ago, to think Dr. Gero would be able to find out so quickly. "I, is it really the heart disease acting up right now?" Goku panted and held his chest where his heart was. Goku reverted back from his Super Saiyan state. "Go back and take your medicines before your condition gets worse." Said Raditz. "Alright." At least Goku was still obedient, he nodded and slowly floated away. "Raditz, you want to take Goku''s place?" Dr. Gero did not block Goku and instead focused on Raditz. Maybe because #19 had absorbed some of Goku''s energy and had empowered and boosted Dr. Gero''s confidence. Or he was warier of Raditz who had defeated Goku in the WMA and won the championship. "Sure, let''s have a warmup." Raditz started stretching nonchalantly. He was interested in fighting an android who he could not feel their Ki. It would be the first time he fights without being able to rely on his Ki senses. He will have to rely on eyes, so he thought it was a good idea to have a warmup fight before he fights #18 and #17. "#20, please permit me to handle Raditz." #19 said, seemingly greedy to absorb more energy. "That is fine, but be careful." Dr. Gero said. Raditz transformed into a Super Saiyan and started fighting #19. It didn''t take long for Raditz to get used to fighting with his eyes. #19 wasn''t too fast as he hadn''t absorbed too much energy from Goku. Whenever Raditz couldn''t see #19, he would dash forward and then turn around and block #19''s attack. Even if he didn''t know the exact location of #19, he was sure #19 would take the chance to attack his back where he can''t see him. After a minute and a half, Raditz had gotten used to fighting with his eyes, he did not play around anymore and suddenly appeared behind #19 and chopped off #19''s head with a knife-hand. #19''s head was still alive, Raditz stomped his head to pieces to make sure he stayed dead. Feeling the time limit approaching, Raditz hurriedly reverted back. "Raditz, I did not expect you to be this strong. But it doesn''t matter how strong you are, you will not be able to defeat us, androids." Dr. Gero said. "Dr. Gero, stop playing around, show me what you''ve got." Raditz ridiculed. Even though he had been using the name #20 to hide his identity, Raditz didn''t care and simply reveal his identity. Whether Dr. Gero lived or not, Raditz could still activate the other androids in Dr. Gero''s lab. "How did you...?!" Dr. Gero was alarmed. He quickly escaped. Raditz did not chase him, instead, he took out a senzu bean and ate it. The others were shocked by learning Dr. Gero''s identity that they forgot to chase after him. "Didn''t the future boy say there were two androids? What''s going on?" Krillin said. 51 Dr. Gero Escapes "Forget about that. He''s getting away!" Piccolo yelled. He was the first one to chase Dr. Gero. Everyone reacted and hurriedly chased after him. Raditz was the only one who hadn''t reacted yet. "Uncle Raditz? Are you coming?" Gohan turned around and shook Raditz. "Ah? Oh, yeah. I''m coming." Raditz nodded and followed. He didn''t feel urgent since all he needed to do was ask Bulma for the location to Dr. Gero''s lab. They chased down Dr. Gero to a rocky area filled with numerous rocks and cliffs. Since they couldn''t sense android''s Ki, after Dr. Gero hid himself, they had no way to find him. Everyone once again spread out to scout. After a while, Yamcha''s Ki hit rock bottom. "Aww, shit. He''s wasting all the senzu beans." Raditz blamed Yamcha. Everyone moved toward Yamcha as fast as they could. A few moments later, Vegeta''s and Nappa''s Ki also turned faint. Dr. Gero had hidden himself as soon as the Z Team came close. Then, after finding an opening, he started absorbing the other''s Ki. Krillin and Tien Shinhan carried Yamcha, Vegeta and Nappa to Raditz to feed them senzu beans. While Raditz was feeding them senzu beans, Gohan''s Ki suddenly spiked. Dr. Gero had found Gohan alone and targeted him. Unfortunately for him, although he kept up to date with the WMA, Gohan had joined the Junior Division and had not had the chance to showcase his actual strength. Because Gohan was just a 10-year-old kid, Dr. Gero had seen him as an easy target. By the time Raditz and the others arrived, Gohan had already caught Dr. Gero. "Tell me where the two scary androids are." Gohan kept Dr. Gero alive to find out where the two androids Future Trunks had warned them were. "I don''t know what you''re talking about." Dr. Gero''s eyes shook, but he kept a calm expression. Gohan was inexperienced as an interrogator, while Dr. Gero an old and experienced man. There was no way he would let out such important information. While they were trying to get information out of Dr. Gero, Trunks appeared in the distance, he was flying to the Z Team. "Who is this guy? He''s the one you''re fighting right?" Trunks asked confused. He had earlier seen the battleground of their earlier battle with #19 and even seen the beheaded body of #19. "You don''t know? That''s Dr. Gero!" Piccolo said. Since Dr. Gero created the androids, he assumed that Trunks had also met Dr. Gero. While the Z Team was losing their focus on Dr. Gero, he himself was trying to find an opening to escape and run back to the lab. Even without the Z Team''s focus, he was still surrounded by them. Just as his mind spun furiously to find a solution, Bulma arrived in the sky, riding on a hovercar with Yajirobe. "Hey, guys!" Bulma waved from the car. "This is my chance!" Dr. Gero looked at the hovercar. "I was speaking the truth when I said you had no chance of victory! #17 and #18 will be here to kill you all soon!" Dr. Gero shouted loudly and whipped a large ranged Ki beam like a rope and slug it at the hovercar. Everything it touched exploded. The attack covered several kilometers area. Raditz had forgotten the minor details in the storyline, but once he saw Dr. Gero look at the hovercar, he suddenly remembered that Dr. Gero would destroy the hovercar to put everyone''s attention on saving Bulma. Although Dr. Gero''s goal was to make sure Bulma was alive to distract everyone, Raditz felt that it was better to be safe than sorry. He quickly teleported into the hovercar and brought Bulma and Yajirobe out just before the hovercar was caught in the explosion. "Mother!!" Trunks was alarmed and hurriedly flew to the spot the hovercar was. "Hey, I got them." Raditz''s voice came from the ground. "Phew, that was a close one. Thank you, Raditz." Bulma heaved a sigh in relief after looking at the disaster created by Dr. Gero which had devastated the surrounding several kilometers far. Bulma was curious about the androids, she thought that android just now looked similar to Dr. Gero and wondered if it really was Dr. Gero as she did not expect a scientist to come out and fight. It took a while before the conversation moved to finding Dr. Gero''s lab. Bulma had heard rumors that Dr. Gero had built a lab in the mountains near North City. As the rumors were quite old, it was also possible that Dr. Gero had moved the lab already. Since it wasn''t safe for Bulma to be here, and she lost her only mode of transport. Krillin who was the weakest of the group was given the duty to bring Bulma and Yajirobe back home. The one who suggested Krillin was naturally Raditz. Yamcha, Vegeta and Nappa were also advised by the rest of the team to go back since their opponents were too strong for them. Yamcha thought it was a good idea to leave right now since he had almost died twice already. Vegeta and Nappa were unwilling to leave, maybe it was their Saiyan nature driving them to stay. But Raditz did notice that even though they did not have a fight and only had their Ki drained, both Vegeta and Nappa''s Ki had increased after eating a senzu bean. Raditz assumed that Zenkai was also able to unlock some of their hidden potentials similar to Guru''s ability. Everyone flew to the mountains near North City, Raditz, on the other hand, felt a craving for some food and made a short stop in North City and visited a few food stands. He got some grilled kebab and grilled lamb skewers. Since everyone scattered around scouting for Dr. Gero''s lab, this time no one gave Raditz weird looks while he slowly looked for Dr. Gero''s lab while eating his skewers. Unfortunately, none of them in Z Team managed to find Dr. Gero''s lab. Raditz even thought Krillin had some special affinity for finding the lab in the original storyline. But since he had already sent Krillin away, they could only continue looking. Half an hour later, Dr. Gero with two youths in tow appeared openly in the sky. The two youths were a young blond girl and a black-haired boy. He was openly challenging the Z Team. "Dr. Gero!" Piccolo yelled. "Ah! That''s #17 and #18!" Trunks said in shock. He could never forget the two androids that had slaughtered and brought his timeline into darkness. "What a beauty!" Raditz was staring dazedly at #18. Even drooling, others thought he was a foodie and was getting hungry again. Only he knew why he was drooling. Dr. Gero had a weird look when he saw Raditz holding a bunch of skewers while drooling. "They are the two terrifying androids you talked about? They are just two teenagers." Piccolo said in disbelief. It was too bad that they could not sense their Ki and get a feel for their power. Otherwise, Piccolo would not have asked such a foolish question. "Don''t let their looks deceive you. These two are terrifying beyond our imaginations!" Trunks looked tense. "#17, #18 kill them all!" Dr. Gero pointed at Z Team and ordered. No one else but Raditz noticed the small remote control held in Dr. Gero''s hands. "Yes, Master Gero." The two androids obeyed. But the way they talked felt unnatural. "Let me handle the boy!" Piccolo dashed to #17. "Alright, then I''ll handle the girl." Tien Shinhan nodded and dashed to #18. Piccolo and Tien Shinhan had worked hard during the three years and were brimming with fighting spirit. Raditz who was just about to quickly swallow all the food in his hands, seeing Piccolo and Tien Shinhan already blocking the androids, decided to take his time to enjoy the food while watching the fights. Piccolo tried to fight with his weighted clothes on, but #17 was just too strong. He quickly took off his turban and weighted cape and got serious. After he spat out some purple blood, he activated 2x Kaioken. Piccolo was toyed by #17 who was enjoying the one-sided battle. Piccolo got punched and kicked continuously. He spat out mouthfuls of blood. In anger, he pushed up the Kaioken to 3x. For a brief moment, he managed to defend most attacks, but he was still weaker than #17 and after a few moments later, even with 3x Kaioken, Piccolo got hit no matter how he tried to defend himself. A minute later, Piccolo was lying weakly on the ground. "Uncle Piccolo!" Gohan transformed into a Super Saiyan and fought #17. Tien Shinhan was also not a match to #18. His Kikoho did some damage to #18, but it still didn''t weaken her strength. It was unknown if it was due to her being an android that her power didn''t fall down after being injured or her just being resilient. Raditz fed a senzu bean to Piccolo and Tien Shinhan. He had finished his food and flew up to #18. "Hey, I''ll do you a favor. So be grateful, alright?" Raditz winked at #18. His eyes stopped by #18''s chest for a few more seconds. Tien Shinhan''s Kikoho had ruined her clothes, her chest was barely covered. "What?" #18 looked confused. Raditz disappeared and appeared behind Dr. Gero and snatched the remote control. Dr. Gero had served his purpose, to activate the androids. Raditz had no more need for him and put his palm on Dr. Gero''s back. An explosion emerged from Raditz''s palm, Dr. Gero was blasted away with some robot parts showing from his back. "Eh. He didn''t die?" Raditz couldn''t sense Dr. Gero''s Ki and had miscalculated his strength. He thought a surprise attack would be enough to kill him. But Dr. Gero had absorbed quite a bit of energy earlier and had powered up. "Damnit! My remote control!" Dr. Gero shouted in distress and looked nervously at #17 and #18. #18 smiled and blasted Dr. Gero into pieces with a Ki blast. "Why did she kill Dr. Gero? Aren''t they on the same side?" Gohan stopped fighting. Vegeta, Nappa, Piccolo and Tien Shinhan were equally confused by the other side''s internal strife. Now, both #17 and #18 looked nervously at Raditz who was holding the remote control.

"I don''t have any bad intentions." Raditz shrugged his shoulders. #17 flew back to #18 and stared at Raditz. "Hey, I did you guys a favor, shouldn''t you be grateful?" Raditz said playfully. "Thank you." #18''s face twitched. "No need to be so fake. How about you show me where Dr. Gero''s lab is? We had a real tough time trying to find it without any success." Raditz shrugged his shoulders. "Okay, follow me." #18 fell silent for a moment before nodding her head. "Raditz, what''s going on? Why did the androids stop attacking us?" Trunks couldn''t believe his eyes. Raditz was able to talk peacefully with the androids. Those androids which had caused mindless slaughter in his timeline. Looking at the remote control in Raditz''s hand, he felt the key lay on the remote control. "Oh, that? They aren''t bad people, they were just forced by Dr. Gero to attack us. I took the remote control which can shut them down from Dr. Gero. They don''t have any more reason to fight us." Raditz said casually and followed after the androids. The rest of the Z Team did not tarry and quickly followed after the androids. After flying for a few minutes, they found an inconspicuous cave blocked by a steel door. Boom! #18 blasted apart the steel door. "It''s here." #18 said while wondering what Raditz goal was for coming to Dr. Gero''s lab. "Let''s see... Oh! It''s here. #16." Raditz looked around and found a chamber written 16 on the surface with an android inside the chamber. Raditz naturally wanted to find Dr. Gero''s lab not just because he wanted to free #16 who was a really kind android. The main reason was to destroy the incubating Cell from his timeline. "It would be horrible if this Cell after taking my cells can also transform into a Super Saiyan 3 equivalent. And even worse if somehow after mixing all kinds of cells, manages to maintain the transformation much longer." Raditz thought. He wasn''t in a hurry to destroy Cell since none of the Z Team knew about Cell yet. Besides, Cell needed about 20 years to incubate before he was born. He could also take care of the Cell under the lab after the Cell Saga. "This is #16? Another perpetual energy type?" #18 looked curiously, earlier she had to follow Dr. Gero''s instructions and did not have the range of freedom to roam around the lab. "Let''s activate it." Raditz pressed the big button on the side of the chamber. "W-wait! Raditz!" Trunks'' eyes popped out. He was afraid of yet another terrifying android would exist in this world. But it was all too late, all it took was a light press on the button. Pssh...! The hatch opened and the big android #16 walked out and silently observed everyone. "Hey, #16 it''s the first time I''ve seen you active. How does it feel being outside after all these years?" #17 asked curiously. During his time in the lab, #17 had never seen #16 appear outside his sleeping chamber. #16 turned his head to #17 and simply smiled without uttering a single word. He had also seen the remote control in Raditz''s hand, but still appeared unfazed. "#18, why the stiff face. Smile more!" Raditz smiled playfully. "Yes!" #18 smiled stiffly. Raditz could see a trace of anger in #18''s eyes. "Well, I can guess you want this remote control, right?" Raditz waved the remote control in his hand. "Yes!" Although feeling wary of Raditz''s actions, #18 still played along. "I can give it to you." Raditz said casually. "Really...?" #18 had a dumbfounded look. "But it''s too boring if I just handed it over like this right?" Raditz said with a playful smile. "What do you want?" #18 asked warily. "How about a bet? If you win, you can have the remote control." Raditz said. "Raditz no!" Trunks was the first to stop the bet. If they lost the remote control, how would they be able to control the androids anymore? "Trunks, don''t worry. They aren''t our enemies, right?" Raditz shrugged his shoulders. Although he knew the androids from Future Trunks'' timeline were truly evil, these three in his timeline weren''t. "No! Raditz, you don''t understand just how terrifying they are!" Trunks refused to give up. "Trunks! You''re cockblocking me!!" Raditz burst out. "What?" Trunks had a foolish look. "Cough, nothing. Just stand to the side." Raditz felt embarrassed. "No! Wai-" Trunks still didn''t give up. After learning about the remote control, he just wished to hurriedly grab the control and deactivate all three androids immediately, before destroying them. Raditz teleported behind Trunks and knocked him out by hitting his neck. "Now I kinda understand why Vegeta got annoyed and had to punch Trunks..." Raditz muttered inwardly. Raditz handed over the unconscious Trunks to Tien Shinhan. "Alright, let us continue." Raditz cracked his neck and turned back to #18. Both #17 and #18 had a blank look. Only #16 looked serenely at everyone. "You still want the remote control, right? Let''s go outside first." Raditz waved the remote control and flew to the sky. Although Piccolo and Tien Shinhan had lost to the androids, they had trained hard and achieved much. During the fight, the gap wasn''t desparingly big, they could feel the android''s limits. They felt that if they trained a bit more, they would soon catch up to the androids. That was why they didn''t have anything against Raditz giving up on the remote control. They preferred to fight fairly. Of course, if the gap was desparingly big, their mindsets would probably change. Gohan also didn''t mind, when he fought #17 briefly, neither got the better of the other. Gohan knew that Raditz was stronger than him, and believed in Raditz. #17 and #18 hurriedly chased after Raditz. #16 followed along with the group, his thoughts were unknown to the rest. "How do we bet?" #18 asked. "How about a fight? Just you and me, one on one. No one interferes. The winner wins the bet." Raditz smiled. "Deal!" #18 smiled. She felt that Raditz was overestimating himself. Earlier when he had ambushed Dr. Gero, even though she could not follow his movements when he appeared behind Dr. Gero. His attack was too weak, so weak that the ambush did not even manage to kill Dr. Gero. "Oh by the way, if you lose, you got to kiss me." Raditz hurriedly added. "No problem!" #18 didn''t believe she would lose. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Hey, Piccolo, hold these for me. And also can you fix her clothes?" Raditz handed over the bag of senzu beans and the remote control. He didn''t want an accident to happen to either of them. "Don''t lose." Piccolo smiled and took the items. Then he pointed two fingers at #18. A beam hit her and her clothes were repaired. Raditz didn''t mind if her clothes were to fall apart during their fight if they were the only two at the scene. But he didn''t want the rest of the people ogling at her chest. "Ready?" Raditz flew down to a clearing. "Yeah." #18 followed down and nodded. "HAA!!" Raditz became a Super Saiyan. "His hair turned blond and a strange glow is wrapped around his body just like that strong kid." #17 shot a look at Gohan and muttered. "#18 will lose." #16 stared at Raditz for a moment before saying. "So you can talk. I thought you were mute." #17 looked at #16. "That might not be true. We still don''t know how strong Raditz is." #17 did not agree with #16 without first getting to see his strength. Raditz knew just how strong the androids were, normal Super Saiyans could not beat them. Not to mention, they had unlimited energy. A long protracted fight was disadvantageous for him. Especially since he could only keep his Super Saiyan state for a maximum of 2 minutes. Raditz punched #18 first, he attacked faster than she could. He knew his only advantage was his stronger power and speed. Since he could not follow the androids'' movements completely with his eyes, and his Ki senses were "blind" he just had to bash her before she could even counterattack. Raditz mixed with some Ki attacks here and there, it didn''t take long before #18 was laying on the ground. After a whole minute, she had lost her fighting capability, her clothes were turned into rags once again. Trunks had woken up again and was shocked that Raditz was able to handle one of the androids by himself. "#16 you were right." #17 said. "Hey, you lost the bet." Raditz patted #18''s face. #18 opened her eyes and got up with a disappointed face. "Hey, you forgot something." Raditz reminded. "?" #18 had a blank look. "My reward." Raditz smiled. #18''s eyes opened wide, only now did she remember the kiss, she had ignored the fact earlier when she had full confidence in winning the fight. She took a step forward and gave a quick peck on Raditz''s cheek and left with a crafty smile. As if she had found a loophole in the bet. "Ah?" Raditz felt cheated. "That''s also a kiss!" #18 hurriedly said and walked back to her companions. "Fine." Raditz decided not to be petty and rubbed his left cheek where he got kissed. "Anyways..." Raditz took back the senzu beans and remote control from Piccolo. "This whole thing was just a joke." Raditz laughed and crushed the remote control. "Raditz! Why did you destroy the remote control!?" Trunks'' eyes popped out. #17 and #18 stared wide-eyed at Raditz. They were shocked by his actions. "Don''t worry, they aren''t bad people. And even if they do something bad, we just have to beat them up." Raditz said nonchalantly. "You''re starting to sound like Goku." Tien Shinhan smiled and looked at Piccolo. Goku had said something similar during Piccolo Jr. Saga when he defeated Piccolo. "Hmph! I''m still Kami''s evil incarnate." Piccolo snorted. "Alright, see you later. Don''t forget to visit me when you''re free! You know where I live right?" Raditz waved to #18. "Interesting fellow. #18 I think he likes you." #17 said with a smile and flew away. "Hmph! Don''t think that I''ll feel grateful for that! Long-haired weirdo!" #18 chased after #17. #16 didn''t say anything, he gave the Z Team a gentle smile and followed the two in front. "That''s it? So much for the scary and terrifying androids?" Nappa looked confused. He had heard so much about the androids from Tien Shinhan. Yet everything ended just so easily. "It''s true that they don''t look evil like the androids from the future... I think it''s because this timeline has changed. But we should still keep an eye on them." Trunks said. This time, when he came back to the future, as he was extremely worried about how different the past was. He had immediately gone to ask Bulma what to do. Only after Bulma explained that each timeline was independent and unable to affect another, was he able to relax. His existence would not be wiped away even if no Trunks is born in the timeline he traveled back to the past. "Let''s continue training. Next time I won''t lose to the androids." Piccolo said and flew back to the dojo. Raditz and Gohan followed Piccolo back. "I agree. Next time, I also won''t lose." Tien Shinhan strengthened his determination. Next time he also would not lose to the androids. With a smile, he flew back to his dojo with Nappa. Since Trunks couldn''t so easily trust the androids, he decided to stay a little longer and observe the androids. He followed Vegeta back home. Little did they know, that they would not have so much leisure to train...
