Dragon Ball Universe

by AnimeKitten14

Inspired by the popular manga series by Akira Toriyama and the anime adaptation by Toei Animation. Instead of the story you're used to of Raditz to Buu (or Pilaf to Omega Shenron for some), this is a completely original story featuring many characters from the original timeline, as well as brand-new ones.

1. Introduction

Welcome to the world of Dragon Ball as you've never seen it!

In this universe, the story has unfolded in a completely different way from the manga and anime. The Saiyans were a treasure-hunting species that lived not long ago, pillaging each and every planet they could find.

That would soon change when the sinister Dr. Gero made his appearance. Gero researched the Saiyans and discovered the plans of the deceased King Vegeta. Their plans would eventually lead them to the Planet Earth, putting himself in danger.

After his shocking discovery, Gero sent an army of small, bug-like creatures known as the Cell Army to wipe out the Saiyan race on their very homeworld. The Saiyans, despite being known as the strongest species in the universe, stood little chance against Gero's army.

That brings us to Earth in the year 2520. Goku, a Saiyan himself, fights for the people of Earth while Dr. Gero remains in hiding as he has for 20 years. Meanwhile, the Z-Fighters, Goku's allies, aid him in defending Earth against any evils that appear.
