Kakarott having ordered everything stored inside the main ship and secured closed the entrance and chartered a course then took off in the direction of the new saiyans location.

Putting the ship on auto pilot once they were out of the solar system she went to kitchen facilities where all the sayains were sitting.

She heard Raditz talking "What? You've only ever drank blood to stay hydrated. Are there no places to get water on Vampa?"

Broly "well I'd never seen it before until Kakarott gave me some."

Raditz "at least you weren't alone, After I purged my planet I was stuck there for a year alone, my pod must have been tampered with, because the space travel components refused to turn on. I damn well nearly went insane."

Seeing His sister he smiled. "oh hey sis, just getting to know Broly"

Kakarott smiled back which then shifted to concern "man that sounds rough, a whole year alone?"

Raditz "Yeah, That was the lowest point in my life."

Nappa stroked his handlebar moustache looking concerned" yeah when Raditz eventually came back to Vegetasai, the Planet Trade Was rife of Rumors that you killed all your Partners, " turning to Raditz "then when we met you at the formation of our Squad with My Prince," he said looking towards Vegeta like a father would to a son in disappointment before turning back to Raditz " you had the highest power of every other low class child, but man, were you Paranoid. Unlike every other saiyan I met, you refused to sleep in the pod transforming bed, instead preferring to sleep on the hard ground, with a pillow sized rock as a pillow. I still Remember what you told me after a few months, comfort dulls a persons reaction time, you never know who's gonna kill you during the night."

Kakarott "Raditz You are alright now? Speaking about this? "

Raditz "Yeah, Turns out all I needed was a person I knew would have my back."

Kakarott curious "Did you kill Your PTO Assigned partners?"

Raditz face lost all emotion, both positive or negative "Yes, after the First one tried to kill me in my sleep on the last day of the purge, because apparently Saiyans had made him the last of his race. After that the second partner, I thought might be different, I was wrong, He tried to kill me when I was injured and asleep for the prestige of killing a saiyan, so the third partner, after the Purge, I attacked them preemptively. After that I flew back to Planet Vegeta, hoping that the people there won't try to kill me."

Kakarott "Why were you picked up by the PTO and not other saiyans?"

Raditz shrugged "They were the closest and probably only ship in the area, fun fact on the ship I found out out that my Pod's programming code was corrupted, there was nothing wrong with the mechanical systems"

Kakarott "So where did you learn to repair and modify your pod then, in the PTO ship?"

Raditz "No I only Picked up the entire pod coding programme, I have printed multiple copies of it, so I can just type out and replace corrupted sections. I learnt how to Repair Pods at base planets, by watching the engineers do their thing."

Vegeta Scoffed "Raditz's only use"

Nappa again looked at Vegeta in disappointment, but again said nothing.

Gero heard and added smirking "Well that puts a new spin on the term Grease Monkey."

At the word Monkey Nappa, Raditz and Vegeta narrowed their eyes, all three raised their hands in unison charging a ki ball to fire.

Raditz snarled "How dare you call me a Monkey, Now DIE."

Kakarott reacting quickly vanished in front of Gero raising a block, just in time as the three ki blasts were fired simultaneously hitting her ki Sheild.

Kakarott yelled angrily "WHAT THE HELL?, WHAT WAS THAT FOR?, GERO DID NOTHING WRONG."

Calming her voice she continued "He was just trying to be witty and a poor example of a comedian as usual."

Raditz seethed "I've had it with being called a monkey, day in day out, by Frieza and subordinates, Monkey this, Monkey that, I really wanna wring their necks for it. No one calls me a monkey anymore and lives."

Nappa nodded his head in agreement as did Vegeta all too subtly.

Kakarott "Well don't take your anger out on Gero, the term Grease Monkey is a popular one to that is instantly associated with mechanics, a profession on earth for repairing all sorts of vehicles, there was no malice in his words."

Raditz kept his narrowed eyes on Gero "Alright, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, This Time, but if you call me a monkey again, it will be your last."

Kakarott then called out Surprising everyone in the ship to meet in the kitchen. "URGENT MEETING IN THE KITCHEN NOW."

Lotus, Chadwick and Planthor entered the kitchen soon after looking worried.

Kakarott noticing everyone assembled "As of right now, the word monkey will not be used to describe us saiyans in any way shape or form, if you do I may not stop any of the other saiyans from incinerating you in retaliation. It may seem harsh, but to them the word is a slur, similar to how African people were called Nigers in ancient history. They have been called as such every day of their lives, I was only just successful in preventing Raditz, Vegeta and Nappa from simultaneously incinerating Gero because he called Raditz a grease monkey. I may not be there next time, so watch what you say to anyone, saiyans have incredibly acute hearing with even more acute accuracy."
