Chapter 26: The Battle of Ginyu Special Corps Begins!
(Other World- Check-In Station)
"What? You want to see what's going on Planet Namek?" asked Enma, looking down at the three figured people.
Bardock nodded, "Yeah, I saw the vision. Kakarrot will fight with Freeza, so I want to know what's going on Planet Namek today. It has to be today. I can tell that."
"That's right. Kushina and I want to watch as well. Naruto is there right now with his teammate," agreed Minato.
Kushina nodded, "Please, Lord Enma-sama."
Enma sighed, "If that's what you want to," and pointed at the door on his left side, "then go to that room, and you will see the big television. I will send ogre to set the channel for you. Please wait for the ogre in that room. He will set the channel for you." Bardock, Minato, and Kushina went into the room and waited for the ogre.
(Planet Namek- Freeza's Spaceship)
Freeza sat on the hover-pod that hovered above the spaceship looking at Ginyu Special Corps finished making a pose. He chuckled, "Well done, everyone. I have been expecting you."
"Thank you very much, Freeza-sama." Ginyu appreciated, "Please tell us what our mission is this time."
"The traitor Vegeta has taken the Dragon Balls that I had gathered, and fled," said Freeza.
Ginyu shocked, "Vegeta…"
ReaCoom looked at Butta and chuckled, "Hey, that's that Saiyan, right?"
Butta nodded, "I hear he's quite the arrogant bastard, for someone who doesn't have that much power."
Ghurd frowned, "Vegeta has betrayed Freeza-sama…"
"However," Freeza sighed, "for whatever reason, his battle power is starting to rise higher and higher." Ginyu Special Corps pushed the button on their Scouters to check the whereabouts of Vegeta. "Although, he should still be no match for you. Please rough him up so as not to kill him, and bring him back here. I would like to force him to tell me where he has hidden the Dragon Balls."
Ginyu chuckled, "That will be a simple task. Our Scouters are already tracking Vegeta. He appears to be traveling at high speed not too far from here."
Freeza noticed that Ginyu raised his eyebrows in puzzled. He asked, "What is the matter?"
"Who might these other five who are with him be?" asked Ginyu. "They appear to have a fairly high battle power."
"Two of them? Ah, those must be the three children who interfered earlier, but for two of them, they probably are friend with them," said Freeza. He chuckled, "So they have teamed up with each other, have they?"
"What are we to do with them?" asked Ginyu.
Freeza replied, "You are to kill them."
ReaCoom cheered, "Lucky!"
"Hooray! Hooray!" cheered Butta and Jheese.
Ginyu nodded, "Understood. Let us go thoroughly enjoy ourselves."
However, Ghurd seemed not to be happy.
(Flashback Began)
At the random Planet Freeza, inside the building, Vegeta stepped behind Ghurd. The small green alien with four-eyes glanced over his shoulder and sighed, "At the heart of it all, you are no more than just a Saiyan monkey, kneeling under our rule. Don't go thinking you're on an equal level with us, just because Freeza-sama has taken a liking to you!"
Vegeta laughed, "As perfect as Freeza-sama might be in everything else, there's still one thing that I can't comprehend. And that's how someone as useless as you are has been admitted into the Ginyu Special Corps."
Ghurd turned around at Vegeta and snarled, "What?! Try saying that again!"
Vegeta turned around at Ghurd and mocked, "Don't breathe next to me. It stinks so bad, I can't stand it."
Boiling up with the anger, Ghurd growled, "I'll show you whether or not I'm useless!" He almost attacked Vegeta, but Freeza blasted him from behind and stopped him from doing it.
Freeza sat on the hover-pod and frowned, "This is no time to be playing around…Vegeta-san." He casually hovered above Ghurd and chuckled, "A very planet has been found. It should sell at a high price. Let us go see it- just the two of us."
Vegeta bowed before Freeza and smirked, "As you wish." Then Freeza left them until he was out of their sight. He glanced over his shoulder at Ghurd and chuckled, "Looks like you got away with your life. You're a lucky one, at least." He laughed before he ran off to catch up to Freeza. Ghurd got up on his feet and began to get angry with Vegeta.
(Flashback Ended)
"That miserable Vegeta…" muttered Ghurd.
"Oh my, what's the matter, Ghurd? Do you have to go potty?" asked ReaCoom.
"No, it's nothing," replied Ghurd.
Jheese picked up the briefcase and said, "Freeza-sama, the Scouters you ordered are in this case." He placed the briefcase on the spaceship next to Freeza.
Freeza smiled, "Well done."
Suddenly, all of five arranged together just to line- up. "Well then, we will be off," said Ginyu. Then they began to dance on the spaceship.
They shouted, "Special Corps!"
Then Butta and ReaCoom bumped their shoulder together, Ghurd was with Jheese, which made Freeza sweat-dropped. They finally went to huddle together. They shouted, "Ginyu! Fight!" It was almost as if they were in some kind of football or something. They finally blasted off into the sky on way to catch Vegeta and others.
(With Vegeta and others- Elsewhere)
Vegeta and Z-Fighters were flying on way back to Vegeta's Dragon Balls location. Vegeta widened his eyes and thought, 'They've started moving.' He could sense that five of them were flying towards Vegeta and others. "T- they're fast! Hurry! They're going to overtake us!" said Vegeta.
'These strong guys are coming at us, one after the next…' thought Gohan. Then he frowned, 'There's nothing we can do! Father!'
'They're really strong. I might be weakest in the group, but I need to fight too!' thought Sakura.
(Outer Spacer- Goku's Spaceship)
The computer said, "20 minutes to arrival at Planet Namek. 20 minutes to arrival at Planet Namek.'
Goku was still sleeping on the bed, but he heard the clock alarmed. He felt annoyed so he pulled his blanket over his head. The clock still alarmed, so he had an enough with it. He picked it up and checked what time right now was. He finally woke up and yawned. He went to brush his teeth, wash his face trying to wake up, and then picked up the tattered clothes. "All right."
He put the tattered blue weighted clothes on, and realized it was tattered. "Oh yeah…" He decided to remove the tattered clothes off, and dropped it on the floor. He went to open the closet and smiled, but suddenly, he scratched his hair in confusion. He chuckled, "Kaio-sama didn't have to send me so many of them."
Indeed, a lot of orange Gi was hanging in the closet; the blue weighted clothes were on the shelves under the Gi. His clothes band was on second shelves, and his pairing of shoes was on the final shelves under the second shelves. He finally put them on.
He sighed, "Someone even more incredible than Vegeta, huh? Stay alive, everyone. Ten more minutes…" Then he stared outside the window at the space. "It's funny. I don't feel any fear. What am I so relaxed for?"
'There's going to be someone unbelievable out there…and yet, nothing. Maybe training in all that outrageous gravity has made me crazy,' wondered Goku.
(Planet Namek- With Vegeta and others- Elsewhere)
Vegeta and Z- Fighters were flying on way back to Vegeta's Dragon Balls location. "Over there!" said Vegeta. They landed on the ground while Vegeta running to the remaining five Dragon Balls and laughed. "We've got them all!" Then he looked at Z-Fighters and said, "Come on!" He noticed that Z-Fighters were still stay away. He growled, "What's the matter?! Get over here, now!" Sasuke gripped the Dragon Balls to his chest. "Why, you!"
Naruto sighed, "No matter how I think this through, it's not right."
"Right. How can we let this guy have eternal life?" agreed Kuririn.
"I don't trust you, Vegeta. If you have obtained eternal life, you would probably kill us," said Sasuke. Then he thought, 'I didn't want Vegeta or Freeza to obtain eternal life, because it has to be only me! Besides, we need to bring friends back to life first, then I can use Earth's Dragonballs to grant me an eternal life.'
Vegeta glared at Sasuke and scowled, "Don't give me that now!" He walked towards Sasuke and demanded, "Hurry up and turn over your Ball!"
"I refused!" said Sasuke.
"We don't have time to dawdle!" growled Vegeta. Then he raised his hand in prepared to finish Sasuke off. Suddenly, Ginyu landed on the ground behind Vegeta. He stopped thrust at Sasuke and turned around at Ginyu. Other remaining four guys landed next to Ginyu, shocking Vegeta and others.
Ginyu chuckled, "Yo, Veggie-chan."
"It's been a long time, huh?" greeted Butta. Ginyu Special Corps were laughing at him which made Vegeta angry.
"Dammit! And I was so close!" said Vegeta.
Kuririn shocked, "They're fast! They were so fast, I didn't even know they were approaching!"
"So they're finally here!" said Naruto.
Ginyu chuckled and asked, "By any chance, is that one of those Dragon Ball things?"
ReaCoom glanced over his shoulder and said, "There are five of them lying over there."
Vegeta glared over his shoulder at his new allies and scowled, "This is all because you were so slow!"
"Shut up!" said an annoyed Sasuke.
Kuririn looked at Vegeta and shocked, "H- how can you say that?"
Ginyu folded his arms and chuckled, "Freeza-sama will be overjoyed by this. You have to get all seven Dragon Balls together, right? There are five of them behind us, and you've got two of them. That's all of them, isn't it?"
Kuririn was so trembled and thought, 'W- what Vegeta said was true. I'm no match for them!' then he looked at Ginyu. 'And that guy is exceptionally amazing, even among these guys.'
'What should we do? How can we beat them like that? Their powers are so overwhelming, except for that four-eyes guy,' thought Naruto.
Vegeta clenched his fist and scoffed, "Y- you think we're going to just hand them over to you?!" Suddenly Ghurd stepped towards Vegeta which confused Kuririn.
Ghurd chuckled, "You seem to have it all wrong. Without Freeza-sama's power, you can't do anything! Watch what you're saying!"
Vegeta growled, "What?!"
"Come on! Come on!" mocked Ghurd.
Sakura raised his eyebrows and confused, 'That guy… that guy alone is really not all that tough. W- why is that guy mixed in with them?'
"Stay back!" said Vegeta. Then he chuckled, "You smell so bad, I can't take it."
Ghurd shouted, "Die!" as he tried to charge towards Vegeta, but ReaCoom grabbed his head to stop him.
"Whoa!" ReaCoom dropped him on the ground and said, "Don't go acting on your own, Ghurd. It's not like we've decided that he's not your prey yet."
"Why don't you hand that over right now, Vegeta?" demanded Ginyu. "Although, even if you do hand it over quietly, we have no intention of turning a blind eye to you."
Vegeta stared at One-Star Ball and chuckled, "You guys may be able to search for people with your Scouters, but I doubt you can search for these."
"What of it?" asked a curious Ginyu.
Suddenly, Vegeta jumped and shouted, "This is what!" as he threw the Dragon Ball further away from him.
However, unfortunately, it seemed like time was now slow, Butta flew toward s the Dragon Ball which made Vegeta and rest of Z-Fighters shocked. Butta finally caught the Dragon Balls, and then he disappeared. Before Z-Fighters could turn their head and Vegeta could land on the ground, Butta landed behind Ginyu and others.
"I'm back," said Butta. Vegeta and Z-Fighters glanced over their shoulder at them and shocked. Rest of Ginyu Special Corps was laughing at him. Vegeta clenched his fist in anger.
Ginyu chuckled, "That's too bad. It looked like you were trying to throw it far away." Then he glanced over his shoulder at Butta and said, "Unfortunately for you, Butta's speed is the fastest in the universe."
Gohan shocked, "T- that's impossible!"
'W- what an incredible speed! Even if I activate my Sharingan, I don't think my eyes can pick it up!' shocked Sasuke.
Ginyu chuckled, "Now then, the other one…"
Vegeta glanced over his shoulder at Sasuke and demanded, "Destroy it!"
Sasuke raised his fist, and snarled, "Damn it all!" as he prepared to thrust his fist in order to destroy the Four-Star Ball. However, before his fist could land on the Dragon Ball, it already disappeared! Sasuke widened his eyes and shocked, "What?!"
Gohan shocked, "The Dragon Ball…"
It was Ghurd who took the Dragon Ball away from Sasuke. Kuririn confused, "H- how?"
Vegeta growled, "So the rumors were true, were they?"
Naruto looked at Vegeta and confused, "What do you mean, rumors?"
"They say that Ghurd is able to control and stop time, momentary though it may be," explained Vegeta.
Sakura shocked, "T- that can't be true…"
Ghurd chuckled, "It's true, all right."
"Well then," Ginyu chuckled, "that makes all of them. Now, for your turn. We're going to give you plenty of tender loving care."
Jheese nodded, "And when he says tender loving care, he doesn't mean patting your head, and tossing you up in the air. He means we're going to hurt you."
Ginyu stared at Jheese and scowled, "you don't have to explain that!"
"Vegeta, is fighting them the only thing we can do?" asked Kuririn.
Vegeta sighed and replied, "You must have realized running away would be futile. Having you guys around is better than nothing. Even knowing the extent of your power you showed me on Earth will be useless except for Naruto and Sasuke, I'll still be counting on it."
Ginyu glanced over his shoulder at his four men, and said, "I'll take Vegeta. You guys decide who gets the other five unknown pipsqueaks by rock-paper-scissors."
"Why do you always do this?" asked Butta.
"That's not fair!" objected ReaCoom.
"You can't do that, Commander Ginyu!" said Jheese.
Ghurd nodded, "Yeah!"
"You took the tastiest piece last time, too, didn't you?" complained ReaCoom.
"You can't do that!" said Butta.
"Let me have him! I owe him one!" begged Ghurd.
Ginyu sighed, "I guess I've got no choice. All right then, I'll take the Dragon Balls to Freeza-sama. You guys take care of the rest on your own."
His four men cheered, "Hooray!"
Ginyu looked at them and asked, "I'm nice to you, aren't I?"
"Yeah, you're the best!"
Ginyu nodded, "Well, first will be Vegeta," then he glanced over his shoulder at Gohan, and said, "second will be…" which startled Gohan.
"Those guys are a set," said ReaCoom, startling Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura. Naruto and Sasuke were preparing to fight against them in case if they were going after them. ReaCoom chuckled, "All right, let's go!"
The four men began to play rock-paper-scissors and shouted, "Rock, paper, scissors! Tie, go again! Tie, go again!"
"Couldn't we get away now?" asked Gohan. Ginyu watched his men playing rock-paper-scissors, the winner would get to face against Vegeta.
Finally, they finished playing rock-paper-scissors, the winner was ReaCoom. He cheered, "Hooray! I get Vegeta!"
"D- damn it!" disappointed Ghurd.
Ginyu chuckled, "Cheer up, it's better than him not getting killed at all."
"Understand," ReaCoom said, "that's how it goes. But I'll let you strike the finishing blow."
Ginyu levitated all of Dragon Ball around him, and chuckled, "Now Freeza-sama will be able to gain youth immortal." Then he flew away with all seven Dragon Balls on way back to Freeza's spaceship.
Gohan charged up the yellow energy sphere around his palm hand and snarled, "I won't let you have them!" as he prepared to throw it.
"Stop!" cried Vegeta. Gohan stopped throwing the energy and stared at Vegeta in confusion. "Don't waste your energy! Right now, concentrate only on defeating these guys, instead of worrying about him, you idiot!"
Gohan frowned, "But…"
Sauske sighed, "He's right. We need to defeat these guys first, and then we can go after Freeza if he hasn't been granted a wish, that is."
Vegeta glanced over his shoulder at Kuririn and said, "Hey, come here a minute." So Kuririn did do as he said and walked over to him.
ReaCoom squatted down behind Ghurd and chuckled, "Oh, oh, a strategy meeting, huh?"
Vegeta looked at Sakura, Gohan, and Kuririn for a few seconds. Then he finally spoke up and said, "That Ghurd guy that you'll be fighting has a low battle power, but he uses supernatural abilities. Don't let your guard down."
Kuririn nodded, "Yeah."
"By the way, is Kakarrot really not here on this planet?" asked Vegeta.
"No, he's not." Kuririn replied, "But he is headed here."
Vegeta growled, "Hurry and get here! He may be an infuriating bastard, but if we can get another ally, it will add some to our potential for battle." ReaCoom and Ghurd were stretching in preparation for the fight soon.
'We came here for the Dragon Balls without the fighting. We didn't come here just to be hunted by Freeza or his men. Damn it!' thought Sakura.
Gohan clenched his fist and thought in anger. 'Why in the world did we even come here to this faraway place? Far from being able to get the Dragon Balls together, we're instead letting the bad guys get eternal life! Darn it!' They noticed that ReaCoom and Ghurd were approaching them so they had to get in defense position.
ReaCoom chuckled, "Huh? This is disappointing, huh? Ghurd, you go first."
"Tch…" Ghurd sighed, "What am I, some kind of battlefield garbage-collector? What can I do? But ReaCoom, make sure you really save some for me!"
Vegeta bared his teeth and snarled, "They're the same ludicrous bunch as ever!"
Gohan, Sakura, and Kuririn ran in front of Vegeta. Kuririn sighed, "Gohan, remember the image training we did on the spaceship."
"And be sure to not let your guard down, Gohan-kun," said Sakura.
Ghurd looked down at the ground and sighed, "This looks like it's going to be over in no time." He walked towards them.
"All right, let's go!" said Kuririn. Sakura and Gohan nodded. He yelled, "Release your Ki!" Suddenly, their aura rose up, confusing rest of Ginyu Special Corps. They picked their powers up from their Scouters except for Ghurd.
Ghurd confused, "What's this?"
Then Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura were erupting into the sky as ReaCoom, Jheese, and Butta were watching. ReaCoom folded his arms and chuckled, "A leadoff attack, huh? Ha! Well, I doubt it will do any good."
Vegeta, Naruto, and Sasuke also stared up at them. "Gohan! Sakura-san!" cried Kuririn.
Sakura and Gohan nodded, "Right!" Just as Sakura, Kuririn, and Gohan launched the Kamehameha Wave and Masenko Blast at Ghurd.
Ghurd chuckled, "Fools!" as he put his hands out and inhaled a lot of air. Then, he yelled, "Stop!" and quickly closed his mouth to hold his breath. Suddenly, the time froze. The blast stopped. He ran in another direction to flee the oncoming blasts. 'You brats!' Ghurd noticed that Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura disappeared. He shocked, 'T- they're not there! W- where are they?!'
Finally he saw that they had already flown off into another spot in the sky after firing their blasts. 'There they are! All the way over there! Did they move in that one instant?' He tried to hold breath longer. 'Dammit, I can't hold my breath any longer…' Finally, he let his breath out, releasing his opponents from their time frozen imprisonment. Their blasts collided with the ground.
BOOM!
Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura noticed that Ghurd had moved from his previous spot. As Ghurd ran on the ground to avoid the debris, ReaCoom, Jheese, and Butta had to jump out of debris and black smokes. "Those tiny bugs are better than we thought, huh?" admitted ReaCoom.
Butta's scouter blinked and noted, "Their rating on my Scouter…" He chuckled, "It's a rare species that is able to change their battle power without transforming."
Jheese looked up at Vegeta, Sasuke, and Naruto who were hovering above them, and chuckled, "You've got some nice friends there, Vegeta-chan!"
Vegeta shocked, "Those guys' speed and power is incomparably better than the last time we fought. But still…"
"Yeah, we are not weaker than you thought." Naruto sighed, "We're now stronger, and still train to get stronger to defeat you, Vegeta."
Sasuke chuckled, "Hmph, that bastard can freeze the time. He could kill them if he wanted to when he freeze times."
Kuririn shocked, "Incredible!"
"You've increased your destructive power several steps over what it was before, Gohan-kun!" complimented Sakura.
Gohan smiled proudly, "That's all thanks to having Grand Elder-sama unleash my power!" Then he looked down at Ghurd and said, "But that guy fled all the way over there."
"I'm sure he must have stopped time again. Let's go, guys!" said Kuririn.
Gohan and Sakura nodded, "Right!"
As Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakrua proceeded to attack Ghurd again, he became frustrated as he watched them phased away in the sky at blazing speed. He shocked, "Oh! They vanished!" They kept phasing away in the sky at blazing speed. He looked around every time they phased away. He began to dizzy.
Once again, he closed his eyes and shouted, "Stop!" He froze time in the hope of attacking them, but when he opened his eyes, he noticed that they were right in front of him when he managed to freeze time. He widened his eyes and shocked, 'They're already here?!' He ran back but he stopped. 'W- wait, there's no need to run away.' He turned and looked up at froze Gohan. 'All right, I'll start with that pipsqueak over there.'
As Ghurd tried to charge an attack, the ground below him cracked, and he toppled from struggling, forcing him to halt his time freeze. Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura were once again left in awe as they looked for their opponent.
Ghurd raised his head to become surprised and shocked, "Oh, crap!"
"Over there!" said Sakura.
Kuririn and she cupped their hands and shouted, "Kamehame-Ha!" They fired the blast at Ghurd, who dodged two blasts. Just then, Gohan fired a Masenko at him. Ghurd rolled on the ground as he dodged a few blasts thrown his way from them.
Kuririn clenched his fist and groaned, "Oh, man, we almost had him!"
On the mid-air, an impatient Butta looked at ReaCoom and asked, "What are we going to do with Ghurd? He's having trouble with them."
Jheese took a deep breath and sighed, "At this rate, we're going to have to redo our bet."
ReaCoom raised his fist and chuckled, "All right, I'll bet this bar of chocolate that he finishes it in the next minute." Then he picked the chocolate bar from his armor to show it to Butta and Jheese.
"Okay, I'm in," said Butta.
Ghurd was completely out of breath and was gripping his stomach. He growled, "Damn it! Attacking while keeping time stopped consumes energy too briskly!"
(With Bulma- Elsewhere)
Bulma contacted Muten Roshi through the radio-phone and sighed, *I don't know what's going on! They took the Dragon Ball they worked so hard to get, and flew away with it! And Vegeta was with them!"
Roshi shocked, *What? Vegeta was with them, you say? What on earth does that mean?*
Bulma sighed, *If I knew that, I wouldn't be letting it get to me, would I? I can't stand anything that's been happening lately.*
*So you say, but didn't your space capsule get all busted up? Whoops… There's no way you can come home, is there?* asked Roshi. Then he smiled, *But then, it's been six days since Goku took off from here, so he should be arriving pretty soon.*
Bulma confused, *Huh? I can't hear you very well!* Suddenly, she scowled, *I know!* She hung up on him in anger.
"Really! What is everyone thinking tossing a lady aside like this?!" muttered Bulma angrily. Then she looked up at the sky and frowned, 'Son-kun, hurry and get here.'
(Gohan, Sakura, and Kuririn vs Ghurd- Elsewhere)
"Look, Gohan, Sakura-san! Every time he stops time, he gets more worn out!" said Kuririn while flying through the air together with Gohan and Sakura.
"All right, let's keep attacking him like this!" said Sakura.
Gohan nodded, "Right!" Suddenly, they transported themselves rapidly through the Namekians skies.
Suddenly, Ghurd shouted, "S- stop!" He froze time once again. As he held his breath, he stared at the face of his opponents. He turned into smirk. He tried to attack them with his hands, but he couldn't hold his breath any longer. 'I- it's no use! I don't have enough energy! All right…'
Again, Ghurd ran away from them. 'I think I'll go hide somewhere and rest for a bit.' He scanned through the area. 'Let's see, let's see…' He found the boulder and smiled, 'Behind that rock!' So he ran behind a boulder in order to seek refuge. He sat on the ground, and rest as his body leaned against the small boulder, and released his breath so he could resume breathing.
Suddenly, Gohan, Sakura, and Kuririn reappeared somewhere where Ghurd previously was at. Sakura shocked, "He's gone!" Starting to get frustrated, they went to look for Ghurd somewhere within this area. They spotted a small boulder.
"Over there!" said Gohan. They quickly spotted Ghurd behind a ridge.
Ghurd ran off and shocked, "How did they know I was here?!" Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura had no time to wait so they quickly followed them. However, Ghurd turned around and shouted, "S- s- stop-"
They kept blasting at him. As Ghurd's rotund body bounced on the ground, he became aggravated. As he moved out from the dust, Kuririn ambushed him with another Kamehameha wave. Ghurd managed to roll on the ground again to dodge the blast's impact. He then picked himself off the ground, still shaking.
ReaCoom chuckled, "Hey, Ghurd!"
"This is disgraceful!" Butta disappointed, "You're going to bring shame upon the Ginyu Special Corps!"
"Ghurd," ReaCoom chuckled, 'you dummy! If you get yourself beaten by those pipsqueaks, I'm not going to play with you anymore!"
"You'll have to take your 3 o'clock snack separately, too!" joked Jheese.
Ghurd became frustrated and started to shake. "I- I just got a little bit careless!" he said, "I'm going to put these maggots away right now!"
Kuririn, Gohan, and Sakura continued to approach him. "All right, now's our chance!" Kuririn said, "Let's charge him, Gohan, Sakura-san!"
Sakura and Gohan nodded, "Right!" Then they flew towards Ghurd as they increased the speed.
Ghurd shocked, "T- they're coming again! All right, if that's how they want it, I'll use my trump card!" He tightened his hand into a gripping position as he secured his attack.
Suddenly, Kuririn, Gohan, and Sakura were frozen in midair, their bodies barricaded in the sky, although time was not frozen. Ghurd had frozen their bodies, concentrating his aura on them distinctly while he could freely move around. Kuririn, Gohan, and Sakura struggled to free themselves from the deadly force that entangled their aura, but to no avail. Even Vegeta, Naruto, and Sasuke became surprised of Ghurd's technique.
"What is this?" confused Kuririn.
"My body won't move!" said Gohan.
"What did you just do?!" demanded Sakura.
Ghurd laughed, "It's my paralysis technique! No matter how hard you struggle, you can't move!"
Kuririn, Gohan, and Sakura do not share his enthusiasm as they continued to struggle. Kuririn grunted, "Dammit!"
"I can't move!" said Sakura.
Ghurd continued to laugh and mocked, "What happened to all that energy you had earlier?"
ReaCoom, Butta, and Jheese landed on the ground. ReaCoom chuckled, "Looks like Ghurd is getting pretty anxious. He's using his paralysis technique, which he doesn't show off that often."
"And against those three sawed-off little bugs, too," said Jheese.
Then Butta looked at ReaCoom and said, "Hey, ReaCoom, the chocolate." ReaCoom looked at him in confusion. He reminded ReaCoom, "That bet you just made. One minute has long passed."
"All right." ReaCoom glared at Ghurd and disappointed, "Ghurd, you piece of crap!" Then he tossed him the chocolate nut bar. Butta caught the bar with joy.
Vegeta stared down at Kuririn, Sakura, and Gohan, and scowled, "T- those idiots! After I told them to watch out for his supernatural powers, they go launching a frontal assault."
Sasuke sighed, "I agree with you for once, but you never told us about his paralysis technique other than freezing time!"
Naruto pointed at Vegeta and nodded, "Yeah! He's right! If you have had told us about his powers, then they would have dodge this one!"
"It doesn't matter! They should not have gone launching a frontal assault in first place anyways!" said Vegeta.
Ghurd stared up at Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura who were still struggling to free themselves from his power. He laughed, "I'm going to get you good for all the embarrassment you've caused me." He created a hailstorm of debris complied directly from the ground, and hurled it directly into Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura in order to hurt them.
ReaCoom chuckled, "Way to go, hand power!"
"Get them! Get them!" said Jheese.
"No need to hold back!" said Butta.
Ghurd was too busy enjoying himself as he continued to brutalized Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura with rocks. He then flew into the air and approached the entrapped Gohan. He pinched and pulled on Gohan's cheeks and chuckled, "Your flesh is so soft, huh?" He went to pull on Gohan's cheeks more. He could see that Gohan was very angry with him.
He chuckled, "All right," as he pulled his fist and said, "now it's time for the 100-blow punishment. I'm going to hit you a hundred times!" He began to pound Gohan's face ruthlessly. "1…2…3…4…" He jammed his knee and fist into Gohan's face, and his knee and elbow into Gohan's stomach a few times. "5…6…7…8…9…"
"Gohan-kun!" worried Sakura.
Ghurd continued to pound Gohan ruthlessly, and counted, "15…16…17…18…"
"G- Gohan!" cried Kuririn.
As Ghurd snickered, he shifted his attention to the incapacitated Kuririn. "I'll do it to you, too, just to be fair." He pulled on his ears, making Kuririn screamed in pain. He chuckled, "You give me my due!" Then he began to pound on Kuririn more.
"Stop it!" cried Sakura.
That got Ghurd's attention and looked at her. He chuckled, "Hey, don't worry. I will bestow you a present, too!" He slowly flew towards Sakura, and chuckled, "Oh, look! You got huge forehead there! Do you have a boyfriend? Nope, I don't think so!"
Sakura growled, "You bastard!"
Ghurd then punched right into her face, and snickered, "Here's my present!" as he continued to pound on her body just like he did to Kuririn and Gohan. Finally, Ghurd ran out of breath just from pounding them.
An impatient ReaCoom yelled out, "Hey, Ghurd, how long are you going to keep this up? You're holding up the next fight! Hurry up and finish them off!"
Ghurd nodded and began to scan thoroughly the area. "Okay… let's see…" He spotted a tree on the ground, and flew toward it. He chuckled, "All right…" He landed on the ground next to the tree. "This tree will do."
Ghurd used his telepathic skill to pop off the tree's leaves and left a sharp stump. As he prepared to hurl the stump at Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura, he chuckled up at them. "Hey, you guys! I'm going to skewer you! You might be good if I cooked you up and ate you!" They continued to struggle although it seemed hopeless. "Yeah, I bet you'd like to escape, huh? What's the matter? If you don't run away soon, this huge skewer is going to run you through!"
"F- Father! Uncle Piccolo!" panicked Gohan.
(Check- In Station- With Bardock, Minato, and Kushina- The Television Room)
The footage of television showed Gohan, Sakura, and Kuririn was stuck in Ghurd's paralysis technique. "Kakarrot's kid! Get out of here, or you will die!" worried Bardock.
"Yeah, but how can they get out of that technique? It seems to be impossible for them!" said Minato.
"How could he so cruel to them?!" shocked Kushina.
"Vegeta! What're you doing?! What're you waiting for?! Save them, you bastard!" growled Bardock.
(Kaio's Planet)
As Tienshinhan, and Chaozu were training, and Kaio was eating in front of Bubbles and Gregory, Yamucha walked up to him and asked, "Hey? Where did Minato and Kushina go?"
"They went to Check-In Station because they wanted to watch what's going on Planet Namek," replied Kaio.
"Why? Why can't they watch Planet Namek from you?" asked Yamucha.
Kaio sighed, "Well, because they thought it's best for them to leave me alone so I can train you guys easier."
However, Piccolo sensed Gohan was in trouble. He opened his eyes and shocked, 'Gohan! G- Gohan is in danger!'
Kaio stared at Piccolo, and thought, 'Piccolo, are you sensing the Ki on faraway Planet Namek?' Then he stared back down at his meals and used his knife to cut the beef. 'Still, there's nothing that you can do with your power as it is now.
Suddeny, Piccolo's meditation was cut off as he began to flare up with power, causing the planet to shake. He was angered due to his emotional attachment to Gohan.
"Piccolo!" cried Yamucha.
"I can't eat with this knife!" Suddenly, he erupted with laughter. "Yeah!"
(Planet Namek- Gohan, Sakura, and Kuririn vs Ghurd)
Ghurd stared up at them and chuckled, "Can't you move? You poor things. All right, I'll take care of the kid in the yellow outfit first with this thing, and then I'll use a different supernatural power on the other two!"
Kuririn began to panic and still couldn't move due to Ghurd's paralysis technique. "G- Gohan, Sakura-san, can you do anything?" asked Kuririn.
"I- it's no use!" said Sakura.
"My nerves are all paralyzed!" replied Gohan.
Ghurd laughed, "Here goes!" as he hurled the large and sharp stump in order to impale them, he began to laugh out loud.
"Sakura-chan!" cried Naruto.
A blazing blue light ripped clean through Ghurd's neck, suddenly surprising him. This shattered his paralyzing hold on Kuririn, Gohan, and Sakura, who managed to dodge the oncoming stump in the nick of time.
Gohan looked around at his two teammates and smiled, "Kuririn-san! Sakura-san!"
Kuririn smiled, "Gohan!"
"We're still alive!" gloated Sakura.
Vegeta was responsible for the blast that shredded Ghurd's neck. He landed behind him as the Ginyu member's head fell off his shoulders and rolled on the ground. Ghurd's decapitated head had a surprised reaction as his fellow Ginyu members became surprised at what had happened. Ghurd's body now toppled on the ground.
The ruthless Vegeta walked toward Ghurd's head. Ghurd glared up at Vegeta and growled, "T- that was dirty, Vegeta! T- this was supposed to be a fight between me and those kids…"
Vegeta chuckled, "That's something that you guys decided for yourselves. You think there's such a thing as fighting dirty in a war?"
"T- to think that I would be done in by a lowbrow monkey bastard Saiyan like you…" an angry decapitated Ghurd said. "It's infuriating…"
Vegeta raised his hand and scoffed, "Hmph. You're the last person I want to hear that from." This prompted Ghurd to scream as Vegeta blasted what remained of his decapitated head to smithereens.
Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura landed on the ground next to Naruto and Sasuke. Kuririn sighed, "Who would have thought we'd ever be saved by you?"
Gohan smiled, "Thanks."
"Yeah, without you, we would be died by now already," agreed Sakura.
Vegeta stared at them and scoffed, "Don't get me wrong. Do you think I deliberately rescued you? I just had the perfect chance to kill that grubby bastard Ghurd, that's all. This is no time to be feeling relieved." Then he stared at three remaining Ginyu members. "Brace yourselves. We won't get lucky this time."
"Yeah, the real battle is about to begin!" said Naruto with the smile on his face. He only heard "Hm…" from Sasuke.
Jheese yelled out and scowled, "Hey, hey, hey! Ghurd got himself wasted!"
Butta frowned, "T- that is a problem…"
ReaCoom shocked, "Our Ginyu Special Corps fighting pose won't be as beautiful with one of us missing!"
ReaCoom began to pull off the same pose where he first arrived and shouted, "ReaCoom!"
Next, Butta did do same as he did when he first arrived, and shouted, "Butta!"
Same for Jheese, he shouted, "Jheese!"
Just then, they pulled off some poses together and shouted, "Ginyu Special Corps!" They blushed with embarrassment.
"S- sure enough, it's not beautiful," said ReaCoom. He sighed, "We'll have to have Commander Ginyu think up a new pose for the four of us."
"Putting that aside, we have to decide who is going to take out those three runts in Ghurd's place," wondered Jheese.
ReaCoom pointed at himself, and reminded, "I still get Vegeta, you know."
ReaCoom pointed at Jheese and said, "All right, Jheese, rock-paper-scissors with me."
Jheese nodded ,"Okay!"
They shouted, "First time is rock! Rock-scissors-paper!" They began to play rock, paper, scissors to figure out who fights who. "Tie, go again! Tie, go again! Tie, go again!" They still went on and on.
"W- what could those people be thinking?" confused Gohan.
"Yeah…" Kuririn agreed, "I can't figure out their character one bit."
"Looks like they are playing rock-paper-scissors to see who will win. The winner will get to face against us, aside from Vegeta," assumed Naruto.
"The real hell starts now," said Vegeta.
(Check-In Station- With Bardock, Minato, and Kushina- Television Room)
Minato sighed, "Whew… I thought they were going to be done in for."
"I don't know who this Ghurd is, but I heard he just joined Ginyu Special Corps lately. I can't believe how pathetic weakling he is! At least, Vegeta killed him to save Kakarrot's kid and others!" said Bardock.
Minato stared at him and deadpanned, "Well, you killed a lot of people when you were alive, right? I am still surprised Lord Enma-sama allowed you to be Hell Guardian, instead of being sent to Hell."
"Yeah, whatever." Bardock sighed, "The real battle is about to begin!"
"Well, this Vegeta guy is unlucky. He's going to fight that whatever-his-name-is guy," said Kushina.
"ReaCoom…" Bardock replied, that got Minato and Kushina's attention. "His name is ReaCoom. He is tough bastard, and he loves to toy with his opponent and taunted them often. He is nothing but a brainless fighter. Now we will watch that ReaCoom beat Vegeta up."
(Planet Namek- Vegeta Vs ReaCoom)
Vegeta stood ready to face the next member of the Ginyu Special Corps. ReaCoom stood next to his comrades Jheese and Butta. He began to laugh as he stepped forward. Vegeta was frustrated and began to channel his energy, while maintaining an angered face.
ReaCoom slowly walked towards him and chuckled, "Okay, Vegeta-chan, now it's our turn." He stopped walking and stared at two Earthlings and three Elementians. "You five little pipsqueaks there, give Vegeta-chan a hand. Use as many dirty tricks as you need to."
"Hey, ReaCoom! Don't kill the little ones! We're going to kill them, after all!" intervened Jheese.
Butta chuckled, "Leave a little treat for us, too!" ReaCoom only waved at them to agree.
Naruto growled, "Dammit!"
"Why, that jerk!" snarled Gohan.
ReaCoom began pulling off some goofy poses, starting with flexing his arms. "Ginyu…" He then clapped his hand above his head, "…Special Corps…" then he raised his fists to his right side. "ReaCoom!" Finally, he lifted his left leg while his right left remained stood on the ground as his both arm drew to his either side. He made a goofy pose that looked like 180 angles.
As Ghurd's deceased body lied in front of them, Kuririn, Gohan, Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke were confused at ReaCoom's goofy gestures.
Vegeta began powering up with intense fury. His power surged through him as his aura sparked around him. ReaCoom's scouter began going haywire as Vegeta unleashed his rage.
Jheese shocked, "Hey, what's going on here? Vegeta-chan's power level just rose to upwards to 37,000!"
The winds blew over the Earthlings and Elementians coming from Vegeta's unbelievably power-up. Vegeta furiously and rapidly dashed at ReaCoom's face, punching him extremely hard, shattering his scouter, and sending him sprawling into the sky. He then flew over ReaCoom and landed on the ground, then dashed towards ReaCoom once again, bashing him down. He raised himself into the sky, then flew back down towards ReaCoom, and fiercely nailed ReaCoom into the ground, cracking his armor.
He grabbed the fallen ReaCoom by his leg, spun him around in the sky at rapid speed, and tosses him aside like a rag doll, sending him colliding into the mountains. Vegeta's ruthless attack wasn't finished. He charged a double blast, combined his arms in perfect unison, and fired a gigantic amount of energy at the mountains, seemingly obliterating everything in the blast's path.
Naruto widened his eyes and shouted, "Get down!" as Earthlings and Elementians ducked down to avoid the enormous blast's effects.
BOOM!
Vegeta unleashed the blast nonstop, and shouted, "More! More! More!" The ray was burning through the path. Humongous explosions were left everywhere.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Jheese, and Butta avoided the dust and debris. Vegeta was breathing hard and was still furious. That kicked too much dust up.
Sasuke got up, and shocked, "H- he got him."
Kuririn got up and cheered, "Incredible… He ended it all in one instant. Vegeta had ridiculous strength, all right."
Jheese and Butta were a bit frustrated as they stared at each other. Butta shocked, "Hey, it couldn't be, right?" Everybody thought ReaCoom was defeated until Vegeta, Gohan, Sasuke, and Sakura were completely shocked.
Sakura was filled with complete panic, and said, "A- a Ki! H- he's alive! That guy is alive!"
"S- she's right! That guy is still alive!" shocked Gohan.
Naruto widened his eyes and shocked, "H- he couldn't be… N- no way…"
"T- that's monster!" trembled Kuririn.
"That idiot Vegeta's power was not enough to finish him off!" muttered Sasuke.
They all saw ReaCoom with all his armor burnt off, and his clothing incinerated, standing in a cloud of dust striking an effeminate pose. ReaCoom chuckled, "Hi!" as he maintained his pose as if nothing had happened.
Vegeta was completely annoyed and his reaction was filled with complete fury. Naruto and Sasuke were filled with fury as well. Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura's confidence was completely shattered.
Gohan shocked, "H- he's taken hardly any damage at all!"
ReaCoom laughed manically, "That's enough for the warm-up exercises."
Jheese had to put napkins on his mouth and nose to prevent the dust from going through his nose. He complained, "ReaCoom is trying to look cool, and we're getting all dusty over here!"
"Our cleaning bill is going to be outrageous," said Butta.
Kuririn shocked, "W- what kind of monster is he?"
"How is it that we have to get the Dragon Balls back from someone like this?" wondered Sakura.
"Even so, if the only thing that would keep Freeza from getting the Dragon Balls, then it is a miracle!" said Kuririn.
(With Ginyu- Elsewhere)
Commander Ginyu was on his way back to Freeza and he was playfully juggling the Dragon Balls in midair. One of the balls slipped from his hands and he flew down to grab it. He sighed with a relief as he flew on his back to Freeza again.
"That was close, that was close. I almost screwed up. I have to make sure to deliver these to Freeza-sama," concluded Ginyu as he continued to rush back.
(Freeza's Spaceship)
Freeza was viewing screen data about Planet Namek. The computer said, "Environment: moderate; culture level: low; practical resources: none; scouting industrial space, commercial space, and residential space."
Freeza chuckled, "Such a worthless planet, huh? Perhaps I will make it a planet for exiles. There are any number of planets like this one in the universe. I doubt there would be any value in going to the trouble of developing it. I will be acquiring the Dragon Balls shortly, so I will have no further business here." Then he smirked, "I know. As we are leaving, I will turn this planet into fireworks."
"F- fireworks?" asked the green aliens that looked like Appule from earlier.
"Yes." Freeza responded, "To celebrate my eternal life. A big, flashy 'boom.'" Then he asked the green alien soldier, "Are there any other planets we can sell for development at a high price?"
The green alien soldier nodded, "Y- yes, sir, I will investigate at once." Then he began monitoring other planets on the big screen.
'Dragon Balls… how delightful…' thought Freeza.
(Vegeta vs ReaCoom- Elsewhere)
ReaCoom chuckled, "Well, should we get started?" He was prepared to unleash his own onslaught as he stood confident. He posed directly and shouted, "ReaCoom Kick!" and nailing Vegeta right in the chin with his knee. This sent flailing a very long distance.
Gohan, Kuririn, and Sakura were surprised except for Naruto and Sasuke who knew that was going to happen. "V- Vegeta-san!" cried Gohan.
Vegeta bounced himself back and almost immediately dashed right back at the relentless ReaCoom. As he collided with ReaCoom, they traded blows at rapid succession up into the midair. Vegeta's punches were extremely swift, but ReaCoom still managed to block every one of his speedy maneuvers.
ReaCoom blocked the heavy impacted and chuckled, "Good! That's pretty good, Vegeta-chan! You're better than I thought, huh?" Then he raised his arm and yelled out, "ReaCoom Elbow!" before nailing Vegeta right in the head, pummeling him to the ground.
ReaCoom followed this attack with a powerful combo, bashing his fist into the ground as Vegeta barely dodged his impact. ReaCoom relentlessly hounded Vegeta in midair, madly trailing him as both their auras were fired up intensely. Vegeta managed to skyrocket a bit farther and turned around in order to charge a blast.
Vegeta launched a blast at ReaCoom, which made Kuririn cheered. "He got him!"
ReaCoom shouted, "Speed Up!" as he proceeded to dodge the blast and appeared behind Vegeta, and chuckled, "Yoo-hoo!" as he nailing him down with a powerful strike, and sending him into the water below.
Butta folded his arms and cheered, "Way to go, ReaCoom!"
"Whoo! Whoo!" cheered Jheese.
ReaCoom waved at them and chuckled, "Thanks, guy!"
Earthlings and Elementians began to panic thinking that Vegeta had died or something.
ReaCoom was still smiling down at Vegeta and was proud of his successful attack. The water below was silent as puddles were left from the impact of Vegeta's body.
"V- Vegeta-san…" worried Gohan.
"Can't be…" shocked Sakura.
Naruto began to panic and shocked, "No… You can't die yet! Did you forget that Goku wants you to stay alive so he can face you again?!"
Sasuke clenched his fist and growled, "No! Stay alive so I can kill you next time on Earth!"
ReaCoom stared down at the water and chuckled, "What's the matter, Vegeta-chan? You can't possibly be finished after that, right?"
Suddenly, Vegeta furiously zoomed out of the water, impaling ReaCoom in the stomach, raising him into the sky and continuously bashing him nonstop. ReaCoom's eyes temporarily go blank and his jaw dropped because of Vegeta's instant hit. However, after Vegeta kept hitting him, he came back to his senses, and sported a wicked smile.
Jheese and Butta were smiling to themselves in the distance knowing that Vegeta would not be able to defeat ReaCoom anyways.
ReaCoom grabbed Vegeta once more and chuckled, "You're still pretty spirited, huh? Good for you!" He then proceeded to dive-bomb Vegeta directly into the ground below, shocking rest of Earthlings and Elementians. Vegeta was implanted into the ground, face first.
ReaCoom grabbed Vegeta's limb body by his leg and yanked him out. "Hey, now, are you okay?" asked ReaCoom. He compared Vegeta to a vegetable ready to be picked. He chuckled, "Don't tell me you've kicked the bucket already, have you?"
As he continued to laugh and taunted the battered Vegeta, he was surprised by a sneak attack from Vegeta, a blast directly in his face. This knocked ReaCoom down again. However, Vegeta could barely stand up and toppled to the ground, completely beaten.
Vegeta struggled to get up as Earthlings and Elementians watched. Kuririn asked nervously, "D-did he get him?"
"No, feel his Ki, you idiot! He's still alive," said Sasuke.
Naruto clenched his fist and snarled, "Yeah… He's still alive. Dammit! At this rate, Vegeta is going to get killed! We need to do something soon!"
Vegeta's face was completely bloodied. When he glanced over his shoulder at ReaCoom, he widened his eyes and shocked. Suddenly, ReaCoom proceeded to jump right up with quick formation and style. He maintained his posture although his hair was now burnt and much of his clothing had been torn to shreds.
ReaCoom chuckled, "Okay…"
Sakura shocked, "I- It can't be!"
"I told you! He's still alive! He's tough bastard!" said Sasuke, clenching his fist in furious.
ReaCoom laughed enthusiastic, "Nice, nice, that's more like it. There's the reason why Freeza-sama adored you so much, long ago, huh? But why would you turn your back on him, Vegeta-chan?"
Jheese chuckled, "ReaCoom is the same as ever, huh?"
"He's got a nasty personality," agreed Butta.
"What freak!" shocked Kuririn.
"Yeah, he's a monster!" agreed Sakura.
ReaCoom stared at Vegeta and mocked, "Don't you have any techniques with more panache than that? If not, then it's about time I killed you. Is that okay?"
'Y- you monster! Damn it… To think he'd be this strong…It's almost as though he's treating me like a toddler…If it keeps going like this, I'm going to get killed by him…' thought Vegeta while breathing hardly trying to get some oxygen in him.
Naruto sighed, "G- Guys…" Everyone looked at him. "I- If Vegeta gets done in, then it will be our turn to get killed next."
Kuririn nodded, "M- make no mistake, there's no way we can beat him. I'm sure that not even Goku could."
"At this point, it's all or nothing. Let's charge him!" said Naruto. Everyone only replied with their head nod, except for Sasuke who was still scowling.
"Are you telling me that I should save Vegeta's life?" asked Sasuke angrily. "There's no way I am going to save him!"
Naruto sighed, "Nobody asked you anyways! You can stand here and became coward, then brace yourself!"
Sasuke spat out of his mouth and sighed, "Fine!"
ReaCoom began to pull off another pose and chuckled, "All righty…" as Vegeta became agitated while bleeding profusely. He shouted, "Your life is mine!" as he crouched while his left arm was little behind his back and his right arms drew outstretched to his side.
Jheese chuckled, "There it is! ReaCoom's 18th final pose."
"Poor Vegeta-chan." Butta snickered, "The life of a flower is so short, huh?"
(Outer Space- Goku's Spaceship)
Goku was still on his way to planet Namek. Goku was preparing to fight soon as the capsule was getting closer and closer to its destination by every minute.
(Planet Namek- Vegeta vs ReaCoom)
ReaCoom lifted his right leg while he raised his right hand above his head and his left arm flexed close to his face. "Okay, I'll finish you with this."
"All right… let's go, guys!" said Naruto. "Vegeta doesn't have the strength left to avoid ReaCoom's quick attacks."
"ReaCoom…" ReaCoom held his arms upward and proceeded to extending his jaw and shouted, "…Eraser Gun!" as he launched a massive mouth blast towards Vegeta.
To be continued…
A/N: Hello, guys! That's all, folks! Minato, Kushina, and Bardock are here to watch their fights! I just want them to watch them fighting Freeza later, that's all! :D
Okay, now I'm looking forward to next chapter! :D.
