Chapter #19
A Force Beyond
Inside the dark laboratory filled with technology so advanced that there was no way any normal human (except for Bulma) could comprehend it. Android #20 touched its own arm, "This…is the power of the Big Gete Star."
The Android smiled, and then that dark smile turned into a twisted laugh. At last…power sufficient to wipe out Son Goku no matter how powerful he has gotten. #20 turned to Frost, "Send the ship to Earth."
Frost nodded, "Very well then, you have one day to prepare and complete your experiments."
Android #20 smiled, "Yes…one day will be enough."
Namek...
Nail landed on New Namek gracefully, "Elder Moori, what events have transpired here?"
Moori gave a sigh of relief, "Oh Nail, I am so glad you have arrived. You must have got the warning I sent to you?"
Nail nodded, "I'm surprised that you could use telepathy to that extent."
Moori smiled, "Only with Namekians that I am well acquainted and familiar with. Now, the threat here is greater than even Frieza."
Nail raised an eyebrow, "Pretty strong then, Frieza is still above my level, but I will try my best to help."
A Namekian warrior stepped up from behind Moori, "Take our power with you, only then may we defeat Slug."
Nail accepted his hand and felt a surge of power rush through him, and the Namekian warriors behind him merged with Nail as well.
The Namekian gasped, "This power…it's even greater than Frieza's!"
Moori nodded, "Now you have the power sufficient to defeat the threat."
Nail frowned, "Slug wasn't it? That name sounds oddly familiar."
"He was sent to Planet Slug because of his immense power as a Super Namek." replied Moori.
Nail's eyes widened in shock, "Super Namek? Heh, it'll be a good challenge for me."
Moori growled, "Be careful, he managed to get a wish from Porunga before we could wish the dragon back into the Dragon Balls. His power is tremendous; I wish you luck Nail."
The Namekian nodded, "Thank you Elder Guru. I'm confident that with the power that my brothers bestowed upon me I will beat Slug."
He flew off, enjoying his newfound abilities.
Slug's spaceship…
"Master, we have discovered a Namekian heading your way!" said a green, crocodile-like creature covered with a hood.
Slug got off his throne, "Ah, so is there another pathetic fool that wishes to challenge me?"
The Namekians had been troublesome; they had challenged Slug, and died. Slug growled, "Zeeun, see to this issue. I don't feel like killing these worms today."
The commander nodded, and sent his comrades Angila, Wings, and Medamatcha out to confront the warrior.
Nail detected a presence, "Ah, so you finally come out Slug."
The shadow laughed in a deep voice, "Hahaha! Do you really believe that someone as pathetic as you is worth sending to Slug?"
Nail raised an eyebrow, "Oh, so I have to get through his minions first."
The shadow disappeared, and in its place stood four warriors. The crimson warrior spoke first, "I am Commander Zeeun, but you can call me your death."
Nail smirked, "Confident aren't you?"
Zeeun smiled, "This is Angila, Wings, and Medamatcha. We are the strongest soldiers of the great Lord Slug!"
Suddenly, Nail appeared behind Wings. The Namekian aimed a kick that sent the soldier flying straight into a mountain. Medamatcha gasped, "Wha?"
Wings groaned, "Oh, you're getting it now Namekian!"
"I'll give him credit," grinned Zeeun, "He's fast."
Wings attempted another blow, but Nail was already gone. The soldier let out a gasp of shock, "Where the hell did he go?"
He was answered by a kick that directly hit his skull, fracturing it and breaking it. The soldier's eyes rolled to the top of his head as Nail stood over his dead body. Medamatcha growled, "Oh, you think you're tough?"
Nail invited the warriors, "Come at me, I've been waiting to test out my power."
Earth…
Vegeta panted. He had been training rigorously in the intense 400X gravity chamber. All of his muscles ached, but he forced himself to continue. Voices in his head urged him to transform.
It would be so easy.
Just transform!
Vegeta's muscles finally gave in. His hair stood erect and his eyes glowed green once again, "Damn it."
With an impatient swipe of his hand, he easily destroyed all the drones that stood in his way. The Saiyan Prince left the gravity chamber, sweating and tired. As he headed back to Capsule Corporation, he saw that even the humans were working hard. There was Tien, Yamcha, and Krillin; all in the Kaioken state. The three of them were striking at speeds that would have forced Frieza to use at least 60% of his power. Raditz and Nappa meanwhile, were fighting at levels beyond what they normally fought at, thanks to the accelerated power growth of the Saiyans.
Nappa panted, "Heh, I should be at least at Frieza's third form now."
Raditz growled, "Just you wait insect! I'll get stronger than Frieza's final form."
Suddenly, the sight of a gargantuan spaceship caught the attention of the warriors. Nappa scowled, "Is that Frieza's ship?"
Vegeta looked up, and immediately headed inside to get dressed for the incoming battle." Gohan sensed the presence as well, and gave a grim look towards his recovering father. The Saiyan left the house before Chi-Chi could scold him.
Frost's Spaceship…
#20 stretched its arms, "At last, revenge against Son Goku and his pathetic friends. Oh, how long I have waited for this moment."
The Android walked up and pressed the activate button for Projects #19 and #21, leaving #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18, His secret project, and #22 deactivated. The Android walked over to the Supercomputer, "If I fail, and that's a big if. Send these Androids out to battle to ensure the death of Son Goku."
The Supercomputer whizzed and whirred, accepting #20's command. The Android nodded to #19 and #21, and left the spaceship.
Earth…
When Gohan stood on the mountains, he observed three figures, "They must be the Ice-jins. But I can't feel their power levels. Wait…are those the Androids? But three?!"
Vegeta used Instant Transmission to travel over to North City, where the figures were headed towards. Nappa, Raditz, Trunks, Piccolo, Gohan and the humans flew to North City. Trunks was in distress, 'What, three Androids? There was never a thing like this in the future! My appearance has already screwed up so much already!'
North City…
The old doctor landed with a tap, "Well, Vegeta is already here. Let's say we give him a welcome?"
#21 nodded, and a ray of light started forming on his index finger. He fired it, and it caused a massive explosion, destroying at least ¾ of the city. #20 laughed, "That's better."
Vegeta emerged from the rubble, already in Super Saiyan form, "So, you mechanical dolls have come back for more."
#20 smirked, "And as you can see, we're stronger than ever."
Vegeta laughed, "If you mean that you've made a third screw-over, than yes, I assume you can use the phrase 'stronger than ever.'"
Before Vegeta could react, #21 punched the Super Saiyan in the abdomen. Vegeta's eyes widened in shock as #21 murmured, "Do not insult my master and his creations."
The Super Saiyan leapt back, "Well, he most certainly is more powerful than both of you were last time."
#20 laughed, "You make assumptions too soon Vegeta, now tell me, where is Son Goku?"
However, a blast in the back of #20's head caused him to look back in annoyance. The perpetuator of the blast was Son Gohan, "Somewhere safe."
#20 growled, "I'll go look for Son Goku, #21 and #19, distract these fools."
Vegeta powered up to his Ascended Super Saiyan form and teleported in front of Gero, "No you don't."
He landed a kick so powerful it knocked the skin off of the Android. #20 leapt back in shock and engaged Super Mode quickly, as he did that, the skin slowly repaired itself. This action was not unnoticed by Vegeta, who raised an eyebrow in surprise. #20 jumped towards Vegeta with incredible speed, but Vegeta dodged the attack and using his hands, boosted his feet directly towards #20. The attack propelled the Android back, but Vegeta teleported behind it. In the time of a lightning flash, #20 had attacked Vegeta, but Vegeta had already blocked and sent a brutal, gut-wrenching punch at #20's abdomen. The Ascended Super Saiyan laughed, "Is this the extent of your upgrades?"
#20 smirked, "Not at all, how about you try and destroy me?"
Vegeta grinned, "With pleasure."
The Super Saiyan sent a barrage of blows to each part of #20's body, but focused especially on the abdomen, in which he knew the chassis and artificial heart of the Android would be. The Ascended Super Saiyan punched #20's stomach, and with a sudden motion, fired a Gallic Gun through the stomach.
The warriors ceased fighting and Trunks smiled, "We've beaten one of them!"
#20 still smiled even when his lower body was nothing but ashes. Vegeta scoffed and tossed the body aside, "How pathetic."
However, the Android's body began repairing itself, and yell of shock from Gohan caused Vegeta to look back. #20 was now brand new, "Hahaha…thanks to the power from the Big Gete Star, I am now much more resistant in that area than before."
The Android rushed towards Vegeta again, but the Saiyan quickly powered back up and kneed the Android in the stomach brutally. However, this time he found that the Android's abdomen was much more protected. #20 began laughing, "#19, eliminate Son Goku!"
The Android began flying up, "As you wish."
Piccolo growled, "No, Goku's mine."
However, #21 leapt in front of him and dealt an incredibly brutal blow to the Namekian. Piccolo yelled in pain as the attack completely extinguished his breath. Tien scowled, "Looks like we'll have to get through you."
He rushed towards the warrior, and punched its chest without effect. Tien leapt back and smirked, "You don't have an absorber, just what I needed to see."
#20 sneered, "Sure, he doesn't have an absorber, but he has a weapon much deadlier."
The Android attempted to knock Vegeta to the side, but the Ascended Super Saiyan dodged the attack and sent a devastating kick to #20's back. The Android gasped in shock as it felt its metallic spinal cord give way, but it quickly repaired itself. Vegeta scowled, "So I'll have to destroy you completely eh?"
#20 growled, "You've gotten much stronger than I had originally thought you would; it seems that I must upgrade my Androids further."
Vegeta scoffed, "Who says that I didn't have a plan to destroy you?"
He flew up and punched #20 in the stomach, "Can the Big Gete Star regenerate your wounds faster than my attacks?"
#20's eyes widened in shock as Vegeta fired a massive flurry of ki blasts at point-blank range. The Android growled, but Vegeta snapped off one of his absorbers. #20 looked at Vegeta with fear, "Wha-?"
The Super Saiyan kicked the Android and teleported behind him with his other hand to the Android's hand, "Sayonara."
He snapped it off and began firing a blast to send the Android into oblivion. The energy wave destroyed the upper body of the Android, and Vegeta powered up to his maximum, "Ready yourself!"
He fired a volley of ki blasts as fast as he could. The Android attempted to absorb them, but the others went straight at its body. #20 growled in pain, "Damn you Vegeta!"
The Ascended Super Saiyan smirked as he saw the last remnants of the Android flow into ashes. #21 quickly focused his attention onto Vegeta. The Ascended Super Saiyan noticed his glare, "Send me a Senzu; you guys should go take care of #19."
Krillin nodded and threw Vegeta a Senzu. The Saiyan caught it and smirked, feeling renewed energy flowing in his veins. The Z Fighters departed, except for Nappa and Raditz who continued watching the fight. The Ascended Super Saiyan made the first move, with an impressive spin kick that led its way towards #21. The Android remained emotionless as it grabbed the spin-kick of Vegeta easily, "Analyzing Data-Opponent: Ascended Super Saiyan Vegeta. Threat Level: High."
Vegeta raised an eyebrow, "Stronger than the other Android eh? Perhaps you can put up a fight after all."
The Ascended Super Saiyan went in with a staggeringly powerful punch that knocked #21 back. The Android recovered and went in for a jab that forced blood to pour out of Vegeta's mouth. The Saiyan only grinned, "Finally, I've been looking for a real challenge."
He sent a spin-kick so quickly that #21 was caught by surprise instantly. The Super Saiyan smirked, "How about this? Final Flash!"
The Android's eyes flickered for a moment, and then it attempted to counter the beam. Vegeta smirked, "Is that it?"
He put just a little more pressure into the beam, allowing it to slam straight into #21. The Ascended Super Saiyan scoffed, "Pathetic."
However, he felt a hand touch his pectoral sides. The Saiyan turned around, only to be shot by an energy blast at point-blank range. Vegeta coughed out blood and growled, "Tch, I'm surprised that you didn't lose any energy at all from countering that attack."
Raditz scowled, "Is Vegeta…in trouble?"
A sweat bead dropped down Nappa's head, "How? That Android used so much power in that beam…and yet?"
Vegeta grasped his pectoral, which was now burned, "You're pretty tricky, aren't you?"
Near Goku's Home
Goku flew off, now completely recovered from the Heart Virus. For the past few days, he had been slowly recovering to the point where he could train in his basic Super Saiyan form with Trunks and Gohan. Now, he had fully recovered and flew off to join the battle in which he felt Vegeta's ki drop. However, a figure obstructed his path, "At last we meet, Son Goku."
Plains…
Sweat beads dropped down Trunks's head, "The Android's already there; I feel it! But Father's life force just dropped down!" the youthful Super Saiyan struggled with himself for a moment, and then rushed over, "I'm coming Father!"
North City…
Vegeta panted as the broken areas of #21 slowly repaired itself. Raditz yelled, "Take this…Double Sunday!"
Nappa scowled, "Raditz you fool!"
The attack didn't do any damage to #21, but the Android teleported behind Raditz. The Saiyan gave a look of shock as the Android began performing the Double Sunday pose. However, Vegeta kicked the Android back, "Hmph, so that's its power, being able to replicate other's attacks."
#21 smirked, "No Vegeta, that is not the major weapon Gero added to my arsenal. I also have infinite energy."
The Ascended Super Saiyan's eyes widened, "Infinite?"
#21 laughed in its cold mechanical voice, "Yes…infinite. My power will never deplete; it will remain, as your power dwindles and fades."
Vegeta powered up, "Well that just means that you're fit enough to be my punching bag!"
However, #21 punched the Saiyan in the stomach. Vegeta gasped as blood flowed out of his mouth. #21 kicked Vegeta back and sneered, "Vegeta shall be terminated."
Within one of his hands was a dark sphere of energy, "Darkness Cannon."
The sphere grew bigger and bigger. Vegeta panted, "No…"
' The Saiyan powered back up, "Final…"
The Android sneered as he fired the beam. The Saiyan prince yelled, "Flash!"
He heard a youthful voice behind him, "Finish Buster!"
#21's eyes widened in shock as he saw a Super Saiyan backing Vegeta up, but merely increased the power in his beam. Raditz powered up, "Double Sunday!"
Nappa leapt next to him, "Triple Saturday!"
Nappa's beam promptly split into three, giving the beam struggle an extra push. #21 scowled, "No…Gero created me to be indestructible!"
Vegeta yelled, "PUSH! Use all the energy that you can muster!"
The Android struggled, "No…no…no!"
Trunks panted, and then a sudden boost in power occurred. He had ascended to the level beyond a Super Saiyan. The four beams overpowered #21, and the Android was destroyed beyond atoms. Trunks panted, "I did it…I ascended."
Father and Son both collapsed in exhaustion. Raditz smiled, "So he's really Vegeta's son."
Nappa wasn't as light-hearted, "Still, that wasn't as easy as we'd have hoped."
Goku's House…
The Super Saiyan rammed his elbow into the Android, and #19 staggered back. Goku smiled, "Let's get to the real deal now."
#19 nodded and transformed into its Super Mode, while Goku powered up to an Ascended Super Saiyan. The battle started instantly, with Goku giving a spin-kick to #19. The Android recovered quickly and teleported behind Goku, only for the Ascended Super Saiyan to elbow it in the face. Goku smirked, "Your movements are too obvious."
The Android growled, attempting to find a way to catch the martial genius unawares. However, it felt as though Goku could see through every attack the Android had to offer. The Ascended Super Saiyan dodged and blocked as he himself fired his own volley of blows. #19 staggered back, but Goku was already behind him, and dealt a devastating spin-kick to the cyborg. #19 panted and scowled, "Impossible!"
Goku smiled, "Impossible?"
However, a beam pierced through #19. The Android gave a look of shock as its chest was pierced by the spiral beam. Piccolo smirked, "Another android bites the dust."
#19's eyes widened, "Piccolo…"
Goku powered up, "Now to finish these guys off for good! Ka-me-ha-me…"
#19 pleaded, "Please! Spare me!"
Piccolo spat on #19 as the rest of the Z Fighters arrived, "You're pathetic."
"HAAA!" the azure beam eradicated #19 completely until all that remained of the Android were ashes.
Piccolo looked surprised for a moment, "Goku? I thought that you wouldn't do that. Hmph, you're becoming closer to me than I thought." Piccolo also had a second thought, 'It never occurred to me that I'd be helping Goku and his friends. Tch, I've really grown soft.'
Goku panted, as though he had expended more energy on that fight then he normally would have, "I convinced myself that it's a robot. Also, I can't control this new power yet; it tampers with my emotions slightly."
He relaxed, "Well then, I guess we can all deserve a rest now that that's over!"
Suddenly, a ki signature greater than that of Cooler's forth form emerged. Piccolo was suddenly on guard, and gestured to the Z Fighters that he would take care of this threat. A reptilian being with features exactly identical to Frieza's third form slowly came into view. The Arcosian laughed wildly as he fired a flurry of Death Beams. Piccolo scowled and deflected them all as the Arcosian landed.
Piccolo growled, "So you're one of Frieza's."
The Arcosian frowned, "Frieza? He was a disgrace," the Arcosian's voice was raspier than Frieza's, and sounded like a reptile, "I am Tesla, one of the first ones affected by Polar's invention."
Piccolo cracked his knuckles, "I don't know what you mean, but I don't care either."
Tesla hissed, "I want to fight the Legendary Super Saiyan."
Piccolo teleported in front of him, surprising Tesla with his sudden speed, "You're not going to, and be aware, I'm not a 'good guy'."
Tesla growled, "How did a Namekian like you get so strong?"
Piccolo kicked the Arcosian back, "Don't underestimate a Namekian!"
He fired a volley of ki blasts, each causing some kind of bruise to Tesla. Gohan yelled, "Watch out guys!"
Krillin nodded towards Goku, "You should get some rest, after all, going against a being more than two times stronger than Frieza while you just recovered isn't easy."
Goku smiled, "You've got a point there Krillin," he put two fingers to his head, "Bye guys!"
The Saiyan instant-transmitted away as Tesla gave a yell of rage, "Out of my way weaklings!"
Piccolo slammed his fist into the side of Tesla's face, "And you're calling us weak?"
The Arcosian staggered back, only to be met by a combo of brutal blows, each sending another trickle of blood into the Arcosian's mouth. Piccolo smirked, "Bye."
However, the Arcosian had begun to undergo a transformation. Piccolo gestured to the Z Fighters to get ready, "The real fight's about to begin."
Tesla's appearance quickly changed, to which he resembled Frieza's final form incredibly closely. The Arcosian now had a blue crest upon his head, and purple skin down his body. A mouthguard covered his face, which reminded Piccolo of Cooler. He growled, "You've done it now."
Before Piccolo could react, a fist had entered his stomach and blood had dripped out of his mouth. The Namekian gasped in shock, and then clutched Tesla and attempted to knee him; only to have the Arcosian slip out of his grasps. Tien prepared himself, "Kaioken X15!"
A crimson aura embraced him as the human charged towards Tesla, sending a knee towards the Arcosian's face. Tesla was taken by surprise for a moment, and then grabbed the human and brutally kicked him in the gut. The human let blood dribble out of his mouth as the Kaioken aura vanished instantly.
Krillin gulped, "My turn, Kaioken X10!"
Yamcha was behind him, "Kaioken X7!"
The two humans rushed at Tesla, with Piccolo accompanying them. The three landed solid blows to the Arcosian. Tesla leapt back, "Take this…Darkness Flash!"
The violet beam of energy swirled at the Z Fighters, all three instantly dodged, with Piccolo scowling, "If that was a direct hit, we'd all have died."
However, Tesla was above them, and he punched Piccolo straight to the ground. The Arcosian laughed, "Not so high and mighty now aren't you?"
Piccolo growled, "This guy…he's stronger than Frieza."
Tesla laughed even harder, "Stronger than Frieza? Do you pronounce me as a fool? There is only one among us not more powerful than the Arcosian brat."
Krillin panted, "What do you mean?"
Tesla smiled, "Oh, I won't reveal too much just yet. Let's just say that I'm a trickle in an ocean compared to what you're about to face."
The human felt a gut-wrenching punch take over. Piccolo stretched out his arm and punched Tesla back, but the Arcosian dodged the attack quickly. Suddenly, he felt the presence of the Arcosian behind him and instantly dodged. The Namekian growled as the Death Beam singed his skin. Had he not reacted that quickly, then he would have been dead for sure.
However, Tesla was in front of Piccolo before the Namekian knew it, and he struggled to block a kick. Piccolo panted, "Come on guys!"
Tien powered up, "Piccolo, keep him there!"
The Namekian nodded as Tesla raised an eyebrow, "Oh, and what are you planning."
The Arcosian slipped away from Piccolo's grasp and charged towards Tien. The human scowled and yelled, "No time to waste, Kaioken X20 Kikoho!"
Tesla's eyes widened in shock as he felt the full force of the empowered Tri-Beam hit him. Smoke covered Tien's gaze, but the human knew at once that the Arcosian was not dead. A punch knocked the human out of his senses, and also knocked out his Kaioken aura. Tesla yelled, "DAMN YOU MAGGOTS! THAT HURT!"
His yell sent shockwaves of power equivalent to a hurricane swirling around Earth. Elsewhere, Goku's eyebrows furrowed while Vegeta began to regain consciousness. Tesla powered up, "All of you will die!"
An explosive wave covered the landscape as volcanic explosions erupted. He turned towards Piccolo, "Get ready Namek! Death Beam Barrage!"
The barrage of Death Beams caused Piccolo to remain only as a blur of purple and green. They were incredibly fast, so fast that Piccolo just barely was able to dodge them. Krillin yelled, "We're behind you Piccolo…Kaioken X10 Kamehameha!"
The red beam ploughed through the Death Beams, but Tesla deflected it easily. However, Piccolo was behind him, "Explosive Demon Wave!"
The attack rammed into Tesla's face, weakening the Arcosian even more. Tesla grabbed Piccolo's arm, and with a vicious motion ripped it off. Meanwhile, Gohan had been watching the entire fight, paralyzed with fear. Yamcha became frustrated, "What are you doing just standing there? Help us!"
Gohan gulped and nodded, "Masenko!"
The beam was deflected easily by Tesla, who didn't even bother to give the young boy his attention. Yamcha gritted his teeth, "At this rate, we're going to lose!"
He powered up, "Kaioken X10 Kamehameha!"
The crimson beam rushed towards Tesla again, but the Arcosian wore a cruel leer as he thrust Piccolo in the path of the beam. Yamcha's eyes widened in shock as the beam consumed the body of the Namekian. Tesla laughed, "Pathetic…simply pathetic."
Piccolo panted, his body full of burns and his clothes ragged. Using a great deal of his energy he regenerated his wounds, "Tch, watch where you're launching that wave."
Yamcha growled, "It's not my fault that he pushed you in the way."
Piccolo gave Yamcha a glare, and the human ceased arguing at once. Krillin mumbled, "What are we going to do now?"
Piccolo responded quickly, "Do the best that we can, and die all guns blazing."
Krillin nodded, "I have one technique that we can use, but it's really risky."
Piccolo smiled, "Just focus on the technique."
Krillin concentrated his ki into a disc, and Piccolo raised an eyebrow skeptically, "Just one?"
The human only nodded. Piccolo gestured to Yamcha to give him the last senzu bean. Yamcha complied reluctantly, and Piccolo devoured the bean quickly.
He charged over to Tesla, who seemed to realize the deadliness of the human's attack. The Arcosian got himself into a combat stance, but Piccolo was behind him before he knew it. Tesla growled as he felt two powerful arms lock him from behind. Piccolo yelled, "Krillin now!"
The human yelled, "Kaioken X10 Kienzan!"
Tesla's eyes widened in fear as the Arcosian attempted to struggle, "No…no…NO!"
The disc sliced through Tesla completely, and left a deep cut into Piccolo's abdomen that almost touched his intestines. The Namekian coughed out blood, and then slowly regenerated his wounds, "Heh, we did it."
Frost's Spaceship…
Froze timidly walked over, "L-lord Frost? We received report on Earth…the Androids #19, #20 and #21 have been destroyed."
Frost growled, "A minor annoyance, but send in #13, #14, and 15. If be needed, we can send in #17, #18, and the bug. Reports on Tesla?"
Froze gulped, "Tesla was killed."
Frost gave a snort, "How pathetic, killed by fighters only at Frieza level. Well then, send #13, #14, and #15; we'll see how it goes."
Glimpse Beyond
(A section that I make to give a preview of what will likely happen in the future of LOH.)
"No, Kakarot, finish him now!" Vegeta yelled.
Goku moaned, "But Veeeggeeeetttaaa, it's been SSSUUUCCCHHH a long time since I've fought someone seriously in this form."
The rectangular core gave a bright glow, but this time, something was different. The figure smiled, "Thank you for your powers."
Goku looked at the figure, one who now shared both his and Vegeta's powers. He powered up, "Well then, this can be fun."
The Super Saiyan Blue leapt off the ground eagerly to meet his opponent in battle. Vegeta powered up and growled, "Damn you Kakarot."
Elsewhere…
"Are you the one star?" asked Gohan.
"What if I am and what if I'm not?" asked the dragon.
Gohan powered up and growled, "You see, I'm not so fond of riddles."
Behind him, he felt a glow of light, and saw the fusion of Gotenks. Gohan powered up as Gotenks transformed into a Super Saiyan 3, "Get ready Gotenks, one star or not, he's going to be tough."
"Huhuhu," the dragon laughed, "You're so ignorant, believing that I'm just 'tough'."
He welcomed the Saiyans; it had been a long time since he had a fight.
