Planet Imegga, Part II

"What was that?" said Trunks, startled, "I just felt an intense Ki!"

"Yes, I felt it as well," replied Piccolo, "and then it vanished... as quickly as it came. I couldn't even pinpoint its location. Whoever is giving off this Ki, he's good."

"T-This planet keeps getting scarier by the minute," said a frightened Pan, "I haven't felt a Ki this huge since I walked in on Papa's workout sessions with Piccolo-san..."

Trunks and Pan's stomachs then growled.

"Great, and now we're hungry too..." moaned the tired Trunks, "we're stuck on this backwater with a broken spaceship and some warrior we can't even track who's clearly good at covering his tracks. Great, just great..."

"I haven't had anything to eat since we blasted that asteroid," whined Pan, "I'm so hungry I can't sleep. Why, why does this bull keep happening to us?"

"You two should get some sleep," said Piccolo, "as a Namekian I need little more than water for sustenance, but even the food we have left on the ship won't fill your Saiyan stomachs. Much less if you're too tired to fight due to sleep deprivation."

"I know! I'll just sneak back into our spaceship and grab a bite!" said Pan, "Nothing puts you to sleep faster than a full course meal!"

"Pan, this is a highly advanced civilization," said Trunks, "and from the way that huge power concealed itself before we could even track it, I'm willing to bet he could be a pursuer. If you hog the food, that greatly weakens our arsenal because my strength would be halved. Just go to sleep for now. The funny thing about suppressing your power is that you can't fly fast while suppressed. I'm sure we don't have much to worry about for a few hours at least."

"But I'm so hungry..." whined Pan, before she shed a tear but accepted Trunks' reasoning. Trunks smiled, glad that he and Pan had come to a mutual understanding for once. He then fell asleep next to a window to be on the lookout for any threats, while Pan dozed off on the same mattress as the Imeggan family's kids. Piccolo meditated half-asleep, floating in the middle of the house. All seemed tranquil and peaceful, but outside, Gale and Sheela were heading toward the trio's location on a flying vehicle.

"We're closing in on the location Lord Don Kee pointed us to," said Sheela, the female henchman, "Redjic-sensei instructed us to keep ourselves suppressed, so they shouldn't be able to track us."

"Remember, Redjic-sensei said to raise our powers as high as possible if we ever get into a confrontation with the green one," said Gale, the short, bearded henchman, "but life is more important than the reward, so we should try our best to avoid confrontation and just take what we came for."

"We're almost there! Let's get off the ship!" said Sheela as she jumped off the ship, then landed on the desert floor with remarkable dexterity. Gale then turned off the ship's engine as they parked the ship a few miles' distance away from the town nearby. They then took out a pair of transmitters and split up, with Gale instructing Sheela, "I'll search in the desert nearby, you search near the lake!"

"Yes, sir! I'll head towards the lake on a scooter so I can join you as fast as possible if you were to find the ship!"

"Roger that," Gale said as he sprinted toward the desert.

Meanwhile at the house, Piccolo noticed a faint whirring sound outside.

"Trunks! Pan! We may have company, wake up!" instructed Piccolo.

"Augh... I was just getting a good night's sleep," said Pan as she rose from the mattress, "I don't sense any Ki either, Piccolo-san. Are you sure?"

"Pan, if we know anything about this planet by now it's that nothing here is as it seems," said Trunks as he slapped himself fully awake, "follow the sound of the vehicle! This could be our chance to find where Don Kee is, and threaten him to fix our spaceship!"

Piccolo generated a letter using magic materialization thanking the kind family for letting them stay, and after observing the insides of the house noticed a set of security cameras hidden behind the walls.

"Hmph!" grunted Piccolo as he used his psychic powers to destroy each of the cameras, "Now get a move on, the both of you!"

Piccolo then psionically opened the doorknob and stretched out his arm, using his heightened sense of hearing to quickly locate Sheela's vehicle and pin it onto the floor.

"W-What the?!" said Sheela as the scooter suddenly flipped over, causing her to fall off. Trunks and Pan then quickly surrounded her.

"That insignia on your chest... it's Don Kee's, isn't it?" said Trunks, "I remember seeing that same insignia on his servants on television."

"You're up to no good, aren't you? I don't think it's just a coincidence that you followed us here," said Pan, "so fess up or I'll have to punch you out!"

Cornered, and seeing Piccolo in the foreground, Sheela suddenly flared up an aura, powering up to maximum strength.

"Pfft, that's it?" said Trunks, "on your best day you couldn't hope to give me a scratch. You're making our job easier than we thought."

Piccolo noticed something was off and said, "Knock her out quickly, the both of you! It's like a morse code, she's calling someone here!"

Just as he said this, they suddenly felt a massive power from a distance, which then flew to where the trio were at in mere seconds.

"At last we meet, Namekian..." said the hooded figure, his outfit covered in smoke from the sudden stop from his high-speed flight, "It's an honor to meet and challenge you to a fight."

"T-This Ki..." said Trunks, "It's the same Ki we felt for an instant, far from here! This guy moved so fast, he caught up to this woman in the blink of an eye!"

"H-He's scary..." said Pan, "He flew so fast here, there's a huge tunnel like someone dug up a canal that's a thousand miles long!"

"It appears he's already familiar with us," said Piccolo, "were you observing us through those cameras I found in the house? A pretty clever trick if I say so myself. I never thought you'd have planted cameras into people's houses in secret. I didn't even think to search the house until I heard that woman's scooter and realized we were followed."

"Enough of the idle talk," said Redjic as he removed his hood, "I will see what you have, Namekian warrior."

Redjic moved toward where Piccolo was before Trunks or Pan could even see a glimpse of him disappearing and delivered a series of kicks so fast that Piccolo could not dodge all of them, and one took off his left ear.

"Is that all you have? For your power, you're surprisingly slow," said Redjic, "and I haven't begun to get serious yet. Don't tell me this is the limit of your strength?"

"Then we'll see how you do when you take two of us!" said Trunks as he powered up to Super Saiyan and launched a powerful beam of Ki from his right hand. It appeared to go straight through Redjic's stomach, only for Redjic's figure to suddenly appear half-translucent.

"Z-Zanzoken?! This alien knows it?" said Trunks as he then spat some blood from his mouth when Redjic's true body had appeared suddenly within punching distance of him and landed a blow on his stomach. Trunks backed off and said, "Piccolo-san! Let's both attack him together this time! This guy's too fast to hit! He got a good hit on me-"

Before Trunks could finish this sentence, his shirt ripped and five large bruises appeared on his stomach as he then grabbed his stomach in pain and collapsed to his knees.

"Five hits, lad," said Redjic, "you only saw the one. I will commend you for being able to stay conscious after that, however."

Just as Redjic said this, Piccolo shot a Ki wave at his direction, forcing him to dodge upwards. The blast tracked Redjic however, causing him to resort to deflecting the blast. Piccolo then shot a series of other blasts at his opponent, which Redjic all managed to dodge despite pausing to deflect the first blast.

"You disappoint me, Namekian," said Redjic, "all you're doing is wasting your energy. And I thought you might have some fight in you."

"Look around," said Piccolo triumphantly, "you'll notice something about your surroundings."

Just as Redjic examined his surroundings, he noticed hundreds of Ki bullets, including the first blast he deflected, had surrounded him and blocked off any room for escape.

"For speedy fighters like you, this attack is just perfect," said Piccolo, "now die!"

The blasts all surrounded Redjic completely and blew up into a massive explosion that instantly generated a huge flash of light that could be seen outside Imegga's atmosphere. The shockwaves spread so far that Gale, who had found OctoPUS 9000 at this point, was swept off his feet and was thrown several miles away.

"Awesome! That's Piccolo-san for you," said Trunks, "and without him, finding Don Kee and having our spaceship fixed is guaranteed!"

"Yay! There's a reason why he's Papa's old master!" said Pan as she clasped her hands together and rubbed her left cheek.

"Hang on," said Piccolo as he held his arm over Pan, "it's not over yet."

The smoke cleared and emerged from it a battered and bleeding Redjic. He was holding two broken spears in his hands, and then spat blood onto the desert floor.

"I see. In that moment of desperation, you sliced all of the blasts in half with those spears," said Piccolo, "and you only took half damage. I didn't think I'd find such a worthy adversary on a planet like this."

"Excellent, excellent work indeed," said Redjic, smiling evilly, "it's just what I'd expect from the Namekian who survived the carnage of Planet Namek's demise. Unfortunately, the same trick won't work twice."

"Maybe, but you're wounded now!" said Trunks, "and outnumbered! Can you really take the two of us in that state?"

"Hey! Don't forget about me," said Pan, "I'm Saiyan, too!"

"Ho, Saiyans, are you?" mused Redjic, "I see... that yellow-haired transformation must be the Super Saiyan form I'd heard in legends. It's a pity I'll have to kill you both. To think the legendary Super Saiyan and a great Namekian warrior would both be lost at once. I almost feel bad about what I have to do."

Redjic then grunted and generated an aura around himself, yelling, "HAAAAAA!" The entire planet shook as the houses around them were destroyed, one after the other. The kind family who'd let Trunks and the crew stay were swept in the hurricane caused by Redjic's power up, forcing Trunks to fly to their rescue. Exploiting this opening, Redjic flew to where Trunks was at and knocked him out with a heavy, unguarded uppercut. Trunks spat blood out of his mouth and fell onto the floor, forcing Pan to grab the villagers instead.

"Hey, that's dirty! He was off guard, you!" said Pan, "weren't you saying something about how you wanted a good fight?!"

"Don't misunderstand him," said Piccolo, "you probably did that so we'd challenge you at a later time when you can fight us both at your maximum, am I wrong?"

"Ho, as astute as you are skilled..." said Redjic, "Exactly right. In the shockwave your last attack caused, I felt my henchman Gale be swept away, but knowing that I had already been involved in the fight, he no doubt stopped suppressing himself and got his hands on your spaceship."

"What? You took the ship?!" exclaimed Pan, "Now we'll never get off this planet!"

"Wrong," said Redjic, "once you've treated the purple haired kid's wounds, come to meet me at Don Kee's castle. I trust you should know where it is, since I flew so fast here that the canal I created should lead right to it. I'll take all of you on at full strength then, and I'll win. If you win, I'd be glad to have Don Kee repair your spaceship so you can continue your search for the Dragon Balls."

"It appears you also strive to be the strongest warrior, stronger than anyone else," said Piccolo, "until my fusion with Kami, I had been like that as well."

"Now I understand why you are so powerful. You're not only a Namekian warrior who survived Namek, but the combination of two Namekians," said Redjic, "I almost want to finish things with you here, but it won't be as satisfying as crushing the both of you when I'm at my best. I, Redjic, shall take my leave for now."

Redjic then flew at teleportation-level speed toward Don Kee's throne, and then used his psychic powers to lift the unconscious Sheela and her vehicle and pulled them toward his location as well. Piccolo observed precisely where they were headed using Kami's divine vision, in case Redjic's trail did not necessarily come from Don Kee's palace itself.

"Take Trunks and Gill, Pan," said Piccolo, "Redjic is right. If we're going to defeat him, we'll need Trunks at full strength. Let's just look around to see that no one was killed in the shockwaves of this battle."

They placed Trunks on the same mattress Pan slept on during the night, and then tended to the wounds of the people around using bandages they found in some of the destroyed houses. The family that Trunks saved explained the situation to avoid any misunderstanding, allowing there to linger no enmity for the destruction of the town.

"We can't thank you enough, lass," said the family, "if we'd been caught in that hurricane we could've easily been killed"

Trunks, who'd barely regained consciousness, said to the two, "All people are woven of the same cloth, Earthlings and aliens alike. I should know, I'm actually a hybrid of two races."

"As we told you earlier we don't have enough to even feed our kids, but the grand elders of this town should have enough to at least fill your belly for breakfast. Follow us to where their house is."

Once there, Trunks finished dressing the wounds caused by Redjic and then grinded his teeth, saying "Redjic... I swore to direct my anger toward just Kaiba and nobody else, but I'll get you back for this. You ain't seen nothing yet! The fury of the Super Saiyan is upon you!"

"That's enough, Trunks," said Piccolo as he sipped a bowl of water, "anger will only cloud your judgment. Remember, he could've easily killed you and then come at Pan and then myself one at a time. The fact that he let all of us live in that situation is proof that we aren't dealing with a scoundrel. If you want to defeat him so badly, then treat yourself to a meal. You'll perform better."

Pan then said, "Bah! This food's nasty! But I guess it's the best we can hope to find around here..."

"We're sorry, but on this planet any sort of property ownership is strictly forbidden," said the village elder, "whether it be vehicles, utensils or even food. If it weren't, I'd wager all of the merchants forced into a permanent exile on this planet for falling to Don Kee's heavy interests and loans would have left. I could only preserve so much food because the villagers treat me as the glue that holds this town together."

Hearing this, Trunks powered up to a Super Saiyan once again as he ate an expired-looking chicken leg, saying "That fills my stomach for the time being. Don't worry, Redjic was kind enough to lead us to where Don Kee's palace is located. Before the night falls, your planet will be free. I assure you both. All people, all cyborgs, all robots... they deserve equality, freedom and the responsibility of making their own decisions. I can't forgive Redjic until I've paid him back for my humiliation, but who I especially can't forgive is Don Kee. That queer is going to get what's coming to him, you will see."

"Then let's get a move on," said Piccolo as he removed his weighted clothing, causing a loud thud and causing an armor-shaped hole to open up on the ground, "I'm itching to get my hands on them both as well."

The three then shook the kind elders' hands and flew straight toward Don Kee's palace, where they easily picked apart all of Don Kee's henchmen. They were soon on the verge of busting down the door to his throne room.

"Ahead of here lies Redjic, he isn't even trying to hide his Ki," said Piccolo, "are you two ready for this?"

"I was born ready, Piccolo-san! Don Kee's tyranny ends today!" said Trunks with fierce determination and intent, as he then blasted the door open. Once there, they saw Redjic meditating next to a frightened Don Kee, with his wounds from the previous battle disappearing little by little as he continued to glow in his meditative stance.

"Healing yourself before the battle, are you? I won't let you-" said Pan as she charged up a Masenko, at which point Trunks stopped her saying, "stop it, Pan. Whether he wounded me or not, he gave us the courtesy of having the chance to recuperate before this battle, and I'd hate to resort to attacking him before he can do the same. You take Don Kee, I'll get the first crack at Redjic."

"Hmph! It figures, I have to take the small fry! Oh well, here goes!" Pan said as she charged toward Don Kee's throne, at which point Redjic fidgeted and used his psychic powers to fling Don Kee out of the range of Pan's fist. She only ended up destroying his throne.

"Oh please, you won't get away!" said Pan as she charged toward the effeminate dictator, only for him to smirk and press a switch, which caused a triangle-shaped laser beam to trap Pan in a triangular prism, holding her in place with a heavily high-volt, electric restraining function.

"Gaaaaah!" screeched Pan as she cried out in pain. Don Kee, triumphantly smiling, then took out another remote which he then pressed, releasing a series of futuristic weapons from the walls that shot a series of missiles and lasers at Pan. Redjic blinked and caused all the high-tech weaponry to explode before they made contact with Pan however, as the last vestiges of his wounds then finally subsided and the glow around him faded, He then said, "Fool. These three aren't so fragile as to be killed by that. Leave it to me. The Super Saiyan and the merged Namekian warrior both die here."

"R-Redjic-sensei! Y-You're sure that you have a chance, right? D-Don't fail me, I specifically ordered you to kill the two besides the Namekia-" said Don Kee before Redjic then interjected saying, "SHUT UP! I told you once and I will tell you again, nobody gives me orders but the most powerful of warriors! And the strongest of them all will be me, not you and not them."

Redjic then flared up an aura and grunted at the top of his lungs, causing the planet to shake again as he entered his full power. He then said with an ecstatic smile on his face, "Now come on, the both of you! I trust that you've tended to your wounds? Judging by your ear being reattached, I'd say yes."

"You bet! You fall here, Redjic!" shouted Trunks as he transformed to Super Saiyan and then powered up further, saying, "This is the mastered state of a Super Saiyan, my full power! I can stay in this form indefinitely, and you'll regret giving me the time to recover from our last battle! Now take this!"

Trunks then formed a couple of Kienzan disks on both hands and launched them both toward Redjic, who instantly generated two blades from his arms and pierced both disks in the middle, at which point he shot them both toward Trunks. Trunks smiled and made the disks explode, saying "Those two blades were my attack! You're sadly mistaken if you think you can hit me with them-"

Before Trunks could finish this sentence, Redjic kicked him in the stomach saying, "After you were KO'd by my last attack off-guard, you'd think your actions would speed faster than your tongue. You disappoint me, boy."

Piccolo then powered up as well and flared up an aura around himself, saying "He didn't put his full force behind that attack, Trunks. You'll be fine. Now let's take this battle to the sky! If we destroy this town, we might not be able to repair our spaceship."

"G-Grrrrrgh... I'll make sure you pay for this Redjic, but Piccolo-san is right! Follow us, Redjic!" said Trunks as he flared his aura back up and flew toward the sky, at which point Redjic smiled and said, "As you wish. Your heads shall adorn the skies of Imegga with the red flower of your blood."

Redjic generated a spear and flew toward the Saiyan-Namekian duo, at which point Trunks revealed that he snatched one of Redjic's blades from earlier, using the smokescreen caused by his exploding Kienzans to conceal his action. Redjic parried him fairly easily, but praised him saying, "Ho, so the Super Saiyan is adept at not only hand to hand combat, but in swordsmanship as well," before continuing, "but you aren't at the level of skill of a true master! Ha!"

As Redjic said this, his spear was coated in his red energy, causing his spear to break Trunks' blade and slice his already-torn shirt in half. Trunks thought that he'd evaded the blow, only for blood to spurt from his forehead, revealing that the cut went deeper than he had thought.

"Now you die!" yelled Redjic as he jumped in for the killing blow, at which point Trunks took out the other blade that he took from Redjic, coated it in his yellow Ki as well, and shot it at faster than lightspeed. Redjic avoided the blow saying, "Clever, but not unpredictable," at which point Piccolo jumped in and kicked Redjic, saying "You're taking on the two of us! You'll be in grave error to think I won't exploit an opening."

Redjic smirked and said, "I know," at which point Piccolo's shirt was also torn, and he spat blood realizing that at the moment of his kick's impact, Redjic had stabbed his stomach. Trunks exclaimed, "Piccolo-san! Why you-" and charged at Redjic angrily, only to be kicked repeatedly in the stomach with Redjic's superior speed. Redjic then remarked, "Ho... I have to commend you for not losing consciousness after that. It appears Saiyans get stronger after a tough battle. Being KO'd by me has caused your power to improve by a margin," and continued saying, "but it was never enough to defeat me! Now die!"

Piccolo then shot a Makankosappo which Redjic narrowly avoided, but it grazed his face, causing greenish-blue blood to spurt from his cheek. Redjic then said, "Hmph! Been charging that attack while I was fighting the whelp, were you? But you made the fatal mistake of expending your energy while severely wounded!" Redjic then charged a considerable mass of Ki into his spear saying, "And now the greatest Namekian warrior dies a dishonorable death!"

Just then, however, Piccolo smirked and moved faster than he'd ever moved in the first battle, coating his hand with all of his Ki and managing to rip a large hole in Redjic's stomach as Redjic was in the stance of swinging his spear at full strength.

"Gwarrrrkh!" said Redjic as he spat out blood, at which point he wobbled and said, "H-How? How did you manage to move so fast while wounded?"

"I'll tell you," said Piccolo, "I wasn't in top form at the time we fought earlier. I train using weighted clothing. Your downfall was not knowing that your opponent was holding back just like you were in the last fight."

"B-But how? With those wounds, even if you were lighter you couldn't have attacked me so quickly-" Redjic said this as he noticed that Piccolo's stab wound on his stomach was completely gone, at which point Piccolo revealed, "That was the second miscalculation. We Namekians are able to regenerate any lost body parts, including holes to our stomachs- as long as we have sufficient Ki and our brains are intact. Your second mistake, and the greatest miscalculation- was not doing enough research on the abilities of my species. My self-healing abilities are more advanced than yours."

"F-Fuhuhuhu..." said Redjic as he tossed his spear aside and then concentrated the Ki he had focused on the spear into his palm, at which point he used the Ki to burn his wounds shut, stopping the massive blood flow escaping his stomach, and then spat more blood on the floor and then powered up as much as he could.

"Very well! I concede that you've won the battle of wits, but you won't win the battle of will! I shall blast you both to smithereens with my best attack! HAAAAAH!" said Redjic as he focused every ounce of his Ki into his palm and prepared to launch a massive blast. Piccolo then replied in turn, concentrating all of his energy into his palms and pointing them out toward Redjic saying, "Trunks! We finish this now! If we don't stop his blast, the planet will be erased!"

"Waaaay ahead of you," said Trunks as he got into his Final Flash stance and yelled his best attack's name, "Final Flash!"

"Gekiretsu Kodan!" said Piccolo as his massive attack joined Trunks' Final Flash, which stalemated Redjic's blast. Before long however, the strain of maintaining such a powerful blast caused Redjic to suffer from more internal bleeding, causing his attack to give way. Redjic was blasted with the full brunt of both of Trunks and Piccolo's most powerful blasts, leaving his clothing in tatters and rupturing one of his eyeballs, and causing him to fall on the floor, defeated.

"K-Kill me. I've already lost," said Redjic weakly as he continued, saying, "it'll be an honor to have dueled the legendary Super Saiyan and a merged Namekian warrior to the death."

Trunks, however, simply returned to his normal state and used his tattered shirt to dress Redjic's eye wound, saying "No need. I've already paid you back plenty for my earlier humiliation. Anger may be my weakest trait, but I'm working on getting over my flaws. I won't kill you."

"It was a good fight, Redjic. There are no hard feelings between us," said Piccolo as he then caused a glow to illuminate in both his eyes, ensnaring Don Kee in his psionic powers and bringing him to where Piccolo and Trunks were.

Don Kee then said in a muffled tone, "R-Redjic-sensei, quick! While he's busy holding me in place, kill him! You can kill the whelp after that-"

Redjic exploded into a fury saying, "You dishonorable scum!" and cleaved Don Kee in half with a karate chop, before then using his psychic power to cause the ground to split into a large fissure. Underneath was a humongous safe containing Don Kee's massive fortune.

"I am a warrior already defeated. To face my defeat honorably, I shall now guide you toward Don Kee's best scientists. They already have their hands on your ship and your radar, and both will be returned to you good as new," said Redjic, "but don't think this is over. I shall now take my leave from this planet to recover from my wounds and train myself even further. Next time I shall stand over you two victorious."

Piccolo grinned and said, "Hmph! We'll see about that," before offering the battered warrior a handshake and saying, "next time I'll defeat you one on one. And in fact, I shall see to it that Trunks can do it by himself. But I trust you won't make it easy?"

"Count on it," said Redjic as he guided them toward Don Kee's team of scientists, who fixed OctoPUS 9000 before the sun came down. The next day, Trunks, Pan and Piccolo delivered Don Kee's large safe back to the village that they'd found refuge in.

"The dictator who'd ruined so many lives in this planet is now dead!" said Trunks as he stood triumphantly over the large safe, "And all of the fortune he amassed with his dastardly deeds will now be returned to you! From now on, Planet Imegga will be a democracy! And the rights of all people, flesh or machine, will be restored to the fullest and most equal glory!"

The people of Imegga, watching this both in person and over television, embraced each other in a moment of utter bliss. Soon after, Trunks introduced to the team of scientists a spare capsule he'd held onto, allowing easy transport of spaceships for people who'd been stranded on Imegga to carry. The siege on Don Kee's castle was a success among successes.

Later that same afternoon, Trunks restocked their refrigerator with the most delicious of the food they'd taken from Don Kee's castle, and pumped up OctoPUS 9000 with enough fuel to last the six months they'd be on the journey saying, "Well, now that the detour is over, we can finally get started on getting the first Dragon Ball!"

"Gill! Gill!" said Gill the white robot as he suddenly emerged from the ground, and jumped onto the open entrance of their spaceship.

"You again!" said Pan with an irritated tone, "Thanks to you we don't even have our spare radar and hafta risk our Super one every time we try to find one of the Ultimate balls we're after, and you try to bother us again? Trunks, I wanna beat him up!"

"No need for that, Pan," said Trunks as he grabbed onto the robot saying, "robots may not be made of flesh, but they're thinking and feeling creatures with minds just like you. It'd be hypocritical to hurt this thing after we made that grand speech about equality. Are you hurt, little guy? I honestly used to be mad at you, but defeating Redjic and seeing Don Kee's dictatorship crumble put me in a good mood. I wouldn't mind you tagging along-"

Just as Trunks was saying this, Gill turned around and opened the component of his back containing a radar screen, and said, "Gill Gill! Dragon Ball detected in the direction of the north! Gill Gill!"

"Huh?!" said Trunks in shock, "I-It appears this guy can incorporate the functions of any mechanical object he eats! He's a walking, talking Dragon Radar now!"

"Hmph. So we did gain something for this detour. Another one to come with us on this quest," said Piccolo, "the Dragon Ball appears close by! Trunks, Pan, we find the first Ultimate Dragon Ball before the day is done!"

"YEAH!" said Trunks and Pan triumphantly as the trio started the spaceship on the journey for the first Ultimate Dragon Ball...

To be continued...
