Raditz gazed at Gohan and thought how to bring out the hidden power that his nephew has. He wondered how long will it take for the boy to access that power and control it, and there was always a question how to prepare him to kill a person. It was painfully obvious the kid never even said something wrong to someone never mind killed. Raditz sighed and placed a hand over his face, he was on this planet for twenty minutes with his nephew and he already had a headache. He prayed to whatever god there is to give him enough patience to deal with the kid. He took a better look at the boy when he noticed how slowly the boy ate his meal and also noticed the disgusted look on his young face
"What's wrong boy? Eat it faster, I don't want to waste all the day here, you need to train" Spoke Raditz with a rough voice which caught Gohan's attention, who was close to crying. He didn't like the food and he wanted his mother's delicious food
"I-I don't like it, I-I want my mom's food!" Said Gohan between sobs which angered Raditz. A big vein popped on Raditz forehead, he didn't have the patience for this foolish behavior. The saiyan stood up and closed the distance between himself and his nephew which scared the little boy
"Don't you dare cry here, got it!? Do you want the others to think you are a weak little shit!? I said many times to you already that you're a saiyan, not a weak earthling! And forget about your mother, it's also her fault your father died, don't forget that!" Stated Raditz with a dangerously low voice which scared Gohan and made him froze on the spot. Raditz backed away from the kid and when he noticed that the boy didn't want to eat anymore he grabbed Gohan by his shirt and carried him outside the cafeteria and walked towards the training room. While they walked toward the room, Gohan remained quiet and thought about everything that was going on. Inside his mind, he couldn't but think about what this man, his uncle said about his father, mother and the humans. Was it really true that humans were at fault for what happened to his dad? Wasn't his uncle the evil one, but he didn't kill his father and even for a moment he was sure that he saw the sadness in his uncle's eyes when they talked about his dad. Even tho he was mean, he also protected him and gave him food. Gohan mind was racing while his feelings were mixed about his uncle who was a very scary person. Without Gohan noticing they arrived in front of the training room, Raditz smirked and walked inside when the doors opened. When the tall saiyan entered inside, there were two soldiers at the control panel talking when they finally noticed Raditz and immediately stood up and bowed
"Is someone inside?" Asked Raditz as he looked at the two soldiers who sweated in fear because of the tall saiyan in front of them
"N-No sir, we received a note that you will train so we made it ready for you" Answered the one soldier on the left while the other one on the right confirmed what his comrade said. Raditz just nodded as he walked towards the entrance of the training room and before he entered he stopped and turned toward the two soldiers
"I don't want any interruptions, understood!?" Said Raditz as he stared at the two men who squealed and nodded on which the saiyan laughed and walked into the room with his nephew. As they entered inside Raditz put down his nephew who looked around the room. The room was huge and very bright, the ceiling and the walls were white while the floor was red
"Stop daydreaming and take off these ridiculous clothes you have, now!" Demanded Raditz on which Gohan flinched and immediately obeyed his uncle. He was about to take off the top when he remembered that he received these clothes from his mother and was again on the verge to start crying when he remembered what his uncle said. His eyes watered, but he didn't let the tears escape and took off his top and gently put it on the floor nicely wrapped. As soon Gohan moved away from his clothes, Raditz fired a tiny beam from his index finger and burned the clothes
"Ahh, why did you do that!? Those clothes were from my mommy!" Yelled Gohan who was about to cry, but there was something else, he was angry at Raditz. Raditz just glanced at the boy when he noticed that, the saiyan smirked and walked towards the boy who backed away a little
"I said forget about that and your feelings towards Earth and it's people, it's time for you to show me that power you have" Said Raditz who saw the change in Gohan. The young Gohan was confused because he didn't know what the man in front of him was talking about, what power? He's only a kid, he doesn't have any power
"I don't have any power, I don't know what are you talking about. I'm only a kid" Stated Gohan to Raditz, but the saiyan wasn't surprised by this. He had a feeling that the kid didn't have any idea what kind of power he has in his hands, yet another thing those filthy humans did, they would do anything to screw up such potential, but Raditz wouldn't let that happen. Oh no, they screw up his younger brother already and he will not allow the same with his nephew
"Boy listen, this is another thing those humans did to you and Kakarot. You have the power, you're a saiyan, but they wanted to let that power rotten away, just like they did to Kakarot!" Exclaimed Raditz who tightened his fist and gritted his teeth. If there was anyone he despised the most that would be the humans and Frieza. Gohan saw the anger on his uncle, but what he also saw behind that anger was sadness in those black eyes. He was more and more sure that his uncle was not at fault here because if he was he wouldn't behave and feel like this. Gohan snapped from his thoughts when Raditz continued his speech "Look here kid, who do you think made a hole in my armor?"Asked Raditz his nephew who's eyes were wide open. Was his uncle trying to say that he made that? Impossible, there was no way he did that, that was a mistake
"W-Was it me?" Asked Gohan as he pointed at himself on which Raditz smiled and nodded "But that's impossible, how was I able to do it?!" Yelled Gohan in disbelief, how was that possible? The boy looked at his hands and then back at his uncle who was smiling at him and walked toward him
"Like I said before, you're a saiyan and we are born with the potential to grow up to be the strongest beings in the universe. Even tho you have some human blood inside you, it's mostly Saiyan since you were born with the tail, but let's see how to bring out that power, hmm.." Explained Raditz and also thought how to bring out the boy's power. As he was thinking Gohan was surprised by what Raditz said and glanced at his tail which waved behind his back. He stared at his tail when he gently caught the tail with his little hands. He watched his tail and thought about what his uncle said, he really was more of a saiyan than an earthling, even his father said some time ago that he wanted his tail to grow back, but he needed to cut it off. Which make Gohan wonder, was his father forced to cut it off? The more he thought about the more he was sure that his uncle was maybe right, but he couldn't bring himself to think that his mother was also involved into this. Gohan snapped from his thoughts and didn't want to think about this anymore. The boy looked at his uncle when he noticed the smirk on the man's face, which he didn't like. He was sure that his uncle was up to something and he had a feeling it would be something bad
"So kid, do you still wanna cry like your weak daddy, huh!" Said Raditz who laughed at the boy who was shocked to hear something like that. How could he say something like that about his dad at times like this, he thought he was sad about his father
"H-He was n-not.." Gohan tried to say something, but he was interrupted by Raditz who once again said something bad about his father which made Gohan very angry
"Do you want to end like him, ha? A weak crying piece of trash! Maybe I should kill you before you end like a human, just like your weak willed clown of a father ended to be. What do you sa..." Before Raditz was able to finish the speech, his scouter started to beep and when he looked at the scouter the tall saiyan sweated and wide opened his eyes "I-I can't believe it, the boy's power level is skyrocketing!" Yelled Raditz who glanced at the boy who had a mad expression on his face while his fists were strongly closed and his aura was visible a little before it flared wildly around him
"D-Don't talk a-about my dad.. LIKE THAT EVER AGAIN!" Growled the young Gohan who turned his aura into the blast and fired it toward Raditz who was surprised by this, he never expected this. The tall saiyan snapped from it and put both hands in front and blocked the blast which exploded at the impact. Raditz was forced to use a good portion of his power to stop the blast and that made him uneasy. If he doesn't raise his power level quickly he was sure the boy would surpass him and that would be humiliating. As the smoke cleared Raditz looked at the boy who snapped from his anger and fell on his butt. The boy stared with his eyes wide open at his uncle who tried to catch a breath
"You see it now boy, you have the power, but since you weren't sure in yourself I needed to provoke you. From tomorrow you will train with me every single day, you have the potential to be even stronger than prince Vegeta" Stated Raditz who walked towards Gohan who still needed time to process everything that happened. His uncle was right about his power, he really did have such power and that made him happy, very happy. He didn't know why, but he felt good and wondered if this meant to be a saiyan, but then he wondered who was this prince Vegeta. The way his uncle talked, it seemed that he was someone important
"Umm, sir, who is prince Vegeta?" Asked Gohan who surprised Raditz by this question, but then again it was a matter of time before he learns about the prince and the former general
"First of all, you will call me Raditz or if you want uncle, not sir, I'm your dear uncle after all" Raditz said it with a smirk on his face and continued "Well, besides you and me there are only two more saiyans left alive. One of them is the former saiyan general Nappa and the other one who's in charge of our little group and the strongest one is the prince of our race, Vegeta" Explained Raditz on which Gohan nodded and could only wonder how strong they were and how would they treat him. Raditz noticed that this scared his nephew and couldn't but sympathize with the boy. They only have two weeks for training and if he isn't prepared till then, no he will be and they will start right now!
"Stand up boy, we will begin with your training today!" Shouted Raditz who surprised Gohan by this sudden news. Gohan obeyed his uncle so he stood up and waited for his uncle to say something while he wondered what will he need to do today. He never trained before and he was a little nervous, yes he knew he had the power, but he was never permitted to train because his mother never approved that. Once again he figured out that this time his mother didn't want him to do that and she even yelled at his father who spent most of his time training. Gohan looked at his uncle, who had a stern look on his face "I want you to do 50 push up and 50squats! It's time for those tiny arms and legs of yours to grow" Ordered Raditz only to surprise Gohan. That seemed too much to the young boy, he was sure that he can't do that much push-up or squats
"B-But I'm not sure if I can, I never trained before and that seems to much for my age" Spoke Gohan only to irritate Raditz even more than he was. He glared at the boy with the look that if it could it would pierce right through you
"You will do it and that's final! We have only two weeks to bring you in shape and besides when I was in your age I was already powerful enough to be sent on a mission! Get on with it or you wish that I add more to the list" Stated Raditz on which Gohan squealed and dropped on the floor and started with his push ups while Raditz observed the boy who at least, knew how to do proper push-ups. As Gohan was trying hard to do his training, Raditz decided to join with him as well, so the older saiyan dropped on the floor which surprised the young boy and started with his own push ups
Two hours passed and Raditz finally walked out from the training room with Gohan who was on his back, asleep. As he walked out he wasn't bothered with all the soldiers who angerly stared at him because they waited for their turn, he just walked out and headed toward his room. As the tall saiyan walked he couldn't but take a glance at the little boy on his back. The boy had the same face as Kakarot when he was in the incubator before he was sent away. Raditz let out a low growl because he was still mad and sad about his brother demise, but he quickly tossed those feelings away. He doesn't care about that anymore, he has a more important mission now. To raise the boy to be a real saiyan, the one his brother never was and eventually travel back to earth with the boy and together kill the humans. Raditz snapped from his thoughts when he saw that he's in front of his room and walked in. As he entered inside the lights automatically turned on and illuminated the room. The room wasn't that big and it only had a small bed and a small bathroom which was on the right side from the bed. Raditz immediately approached the bed on which he gently dropped Gohan and walked towards the bathroom to take a shower before he returned to the training room, but this time alone
