Chapter 62: Orochimaru's Torture

(Gohan, Raditz, Sakura, and Tenshinhan VS Orochimaru- Spinach Wastes)

As Orochimaru stood before Gohan and others' very eyes, he continued to laugh at them for some reason. He laughed ever since new two fighters engaged in fight together with Raditz and Gohan against him. 'That will save me a lot of trouble to find them and kill them.'

Sakura was wondering what she was supposed to do, since she just came to help Gohan and Raditz. It did not matter if her energy was restored since she defeated Yusuke, but she still worried because Orochimaru had gotten stronger than their previous fight. 'Either Naruto-kun will escape or Sasuke will arrive. They can beat Orochimaru. Although, Naruto-kun is definitely the one can beat him!'

As for Tenshinhan, he never fought Orochimaru, but he could feel powerful Ki from his foe. He knew that all of them could not take him on faster, but at least they could buy some time until either Sasuke or Naruto got here. He would try his best to fight. But this time, he would not be pressured by his enemy just like Nappa did to him. He looked at Sakura, Gohan, and Raditz, and thought, 'No matter how much strong he is, we need to beat him!'

Gohan glared at Orochimaru and clenched fists angrily. No matter how many times Gohan have seen many enemy who tried to kill his Father and others, he did not like it. He had experienced to come across Raditz, Nappa, Vegeta, Ginyu Force, Ginyu, Freeza, Hideo, and now this Orochimaru! Most of them did horrible things to do. Their desires were always the same! They existed to kill people for their own schemes! 'Hide-san, I promised you that we will stop Orochimaru and Daisuke! I won't let you die in vain!'

Raditz clutched his right arm, and stared at Sakura and Tenshinhan carefully. He was wondering how weaklings like them could handle Orochimaru. Even if they would fight Orochimaru together with Gohan and him, it still would not work. He wondered if they had their Death Wish. Suddenly, he just realized something, and thought, 'Wait a minute! They knew that they could not beat Orochimaru, but they wanted to buy time even with four of us? I get it!'

Orochimaru chuckled, "I guess you come here to buy some time until Sasuke-kun gets here, aren't you? Well, I suppose that's fine with me. That saves me a lot of trouble to find you guys anyways. I will let you entertain me for a while until Sasuke gets here. I want to show you anyways."

Sakura growled, "I won't let you mark Sasuke! I know what you're after anyways! But for sure, Naruto will come back, and defeat you! We will defeat you!"

"That's right! We will beat you, and get our Dragon Balls back!" agreed Gohan.

Orochimaru widened his eyes in shock because Sakura said something that might impact on him. He was wondering how an idiot like Naruto can come out of dimensional prison when Orochimaru said that it was nearly impossible for everyone to escape dimensional prison. Suddenly, he regained his senses, and scoffed, "I doubt you can beat me without Naruto! Besides, Naruto has no way to get out! Now are you telling me that you can beat me even within your current powers?"

Sakura nodded, "That's right!"

Orochimaru sighed, "No matter how many time I must repeat, but you won't understand. I assume there's only one so you will listen is to fight. You will understand once you die. You will realize why you cannot beat me."

Sakura clenched her fists and snarled, "I won't forgive you! You just ruined Naruto-kun's birthday!"

Orochimaru snickered, "So today is his birthday? Well, at least I gave him a present."

Sakura did not like how Orochimaru treated Naruto badly. She did not like Orochimaru at all since she first met him at Forest of Death. That bastard tried to kill them at Forest of Death, during the battle with Saiyan, and now this. She snarled, "What?!"

"Shut up, guys! We don't have time to talk. We need to kill him as soon as possible!" demanded Raditz.

Gohan looked up at him and shocked, "Uncle!" When he looked at Raditz's eyes, he could tell that Raditz was furious because of Orochimaru. He knew that Raditz wanted to kill Orochimaru badly. Then, he began to smile, and nodded, "Right! Let's fighting him!"

Tenshinhan stepped forward, and punched his own hand. He walked towards Orochimaru, and sighed, "I will go first! You should know what you're doing, guys."

Sakura and Gohan nodded, "Right!"

Raditz stared at Tenshinhan and thought angrily, 'Is he going first? He's trying to get himself kill, just so we can blindside attack him? That idiot!'

"So you're first?" asked an overconfident Orochimaru.

Tenshinhan stepped next to Orochimaru, and stared at Orochimaru. They were having staring lock-down at each other for a while. Finally, he replied softly, "That's right. I'm first."

"So, are you preparing to die first?" asked Orochimaru.

Tenshinhan smirked, "Why not we see who will die first?"

Orochimaru scoffed, "If you insist, I will glad to kill you here." They continued to stare at each other, almost as if they were readying to brawl seriously.

(Piccolo vs Daisuke- Spindletop Flats)

Piccolo caught both of Daisuke's punches, and began to grip their fists tightly. Daisuke screamed in pain, but he refused to give up. He forced himself to headbutt Piccolo's forehead, allowing Piccolo to release his fists. Afterward, Daisuke jumped forward, and tried to threw a punch around, but he failed to do it due to Piccolo's another avoidance.

The moment Piccolo ducked his head down; he had his chance to give another shot at Daisuke by delivering a hard elbow smash to the guts. Daisuke fell to his knees, as he screamed in pain thanks to Piccolo's elbow smash! He breathed hardily, but he could not seem to fight back, because Piccolo gave an upper-hand to him. Enraged, he immediately got on his feet, and gave an angry punch at Piccolo, who immediately vanished thin in air. He was surprised that he could not even touch Piccolo anymore.

Suddenly, he got punched in the face, and knocked away. Also, he saw that Piccolo teleported behind him. He tried to stop himself, but Piccolo was the first one to stop him with the Kiai Shout, forcing him to turn around. Once he turned around, Piccolo immediately kicked him up above the cloud. As soon as he went up above the cloud, he noticed that Piccolo was waiting for him above. Finally, Piccolo screamed before slamming him down with the Double-Ax Handle, bashing him under the ground.

However, the black blasts suddenly broke out the ground, and wiped all of hoodoos.

BOOOOOOM!

Daisuke emitted the black aura within his body. He glared up at Piccolo and snarled, "I, strongest demon there is, won't be beaten by the likes of you!" He powered up the black aura, and quickly flew up towards Piccolo.

Piccolo stared down at Daisuke and sighed, "No matter how many times you try to fight back, you will not beat me!" Then, he, as well, flew down towards Daisuke at high-speed. As soon as they connected their fist, the shockwave expanded largely. Then they began to exchange their blows, causing rapidly large shockwave.

(With Naruto- Dimensional Maze)

No matter where Naruto went, he would find more dead-end wall. He could not believe how very difficult it was. He remembered when he was in Konoha, it was not even really difficult. Now this maze was really more difficult than he thought. Everywhere he went, he could not seem to escape the maze.

He panted heavily, "Dammit! Is there really a way for me to get out? That bastard Orochimaru will pay for it! I wish I can walk through them!" Suddenly, he just realized something he just said, and chuckled, "That's right! I can walk through them!"

He made a hand seal, and shouted, "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" He created one clone next to him. Then his clone began to form large Rasengan. He shouted, "Rasengan." Then, he slammed large Rasengan on the wall, causing explosion.

BOOM!

That kicked up a lot of dust. He chuckled, "That should leave some hole! I can destroy every wall!" However, that was not what he thought it would be. The wall appeared to be intact as soon as the dust cleared.

He shocked, "W-What?! My Rasengan did not destroy it?! Are all walls a solid that cannot be destroyed?! Does that mean I have to get out of this maze in regular way?"

He bared his teeth and growled angrily, "Fine! I will have to do in regular way. I'm off!" He immediately ran off on way to find an exit.

(Piccolo vs Daisuke- Spindletop Flats)

Piccolo and Daisuke continued to exchange their ferocious blow, despite landing some blows on each other. They got some bruise on them. But Daisuke was only one who was really pissed off, due to Piccolo overwhelming him. Enraged, Daisuke delivered a hard punch to Piccolo in the guts, doubled him over. He could hear that Piccolo screamed in pain.

Daisuke chuckled, "Fool! I will pay you back for what you did to me!" Daisuke threw a punch, but Piccolo caught it. "W-What?!"

Piccolo snickered, "What's the matter? You thought you made a comeback? Well, you thought wrong!" Then he proceeded to punch Daiuske in the face, and guts repeatedly with free fist. He continued to beat him up like a rag doll. That left a lot of bruise on Daisuke. Not to mention blood as well.

Before Piccolo could throw a final punch, Daisuke suddenly blocked it with his free hand. He glared up at shocked Piccolo and snarled, "I thought I told you I won't be beaten by the likes of you! Just die already, would you?!" He screamed before uppercut punching Piccolo square in the jaws, sending him up above the cloud.

Then, Daisuke appeared above Piccolo, and grabbed his both arm and leg. He screamed before slamming his back on the knees three times, and bashing him to the ground with Double-Ax Handle. While Piccolo was being falling, Daisuke hurled red energy sphere onto Piccolo's stomach, bashing him onto the ground. That caused large explosion also.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Daisuke slowly landed on the ground and laughed, "You fool! I won't be beaten by you! I'm still strongest demon there is!" Suddenly, he could feel that there was an earthquake for some reason. He looked around him and confused, "What's that?" He spotted something that tunneled underground towards Daisuke. He was not sure what's that. All he could do was to wait for it to reveal or something. He was hoping that it was hedgehog, or worms.

However, that was not what he hoped. It was Piccolo, who emerged from the underground, and uppercut punched Daisuke, sending him up into the sky. Then, Piccolo rocketed towards Daisuke, and connected his fist to Daisuke's face harder, knocking him away. However, he was not done with that. He teleported in front of Daisuke, and kicked him away. Next, he teleported behind Daisuke, and kicked him up into the sky further. Then, Piccolo followed him up into the sky.

While Daisuke was being knocking away, he was in shocked and thought, 'How could this be possible? I thought I am far stronger than him! How can he give an upper hand on me? Dammit! I won't give up!' He immediately regained his senses and stopped him from being knocked away. He glared down at Piccolo and shouted angrily, "I won't give up! I refuse to believe that you're stronger than me! I will prove to myself that I'm really strong by killing you!" He raised his hands and began to charge up the red energy sphere. It was getting larger and larger.

Noticing that Daisuke was really pissed off, it was almost as if Daisuke was going to kill him. He widened his eyes and shocked, "W-What?! It's getting bigger! Never mind that, I must stop him at any cost!" He immediately stopped charging, and began to power up. He began to charge up the blue energy sphere with a single hand, while the other arm supporting the one that was charging.

(With Sasuke, Kuririn, and Yamucha- Elsewhere)

While Sasuke, Kuririn, and Yamucha were on way to help Naruto and others, they could sense that new two Ki joined Gohan and others' battlefield. Sasuke thought, 'Sakura, and Tenshinhan finally arrive there, huh?' Then he smirked, 'Buy some time until we get here! I will kill Orochimaru for sure!' He soared past the river, as the water erupted.

While Sasuke was in leading, Yamucha and Kuririn watched him flying faster. At least, they managed to keep up with him. They knew that Sasuke would not waste his energy by just flying before fighting with Orochimaru.

Yamucha frowned, "When I fought together with him, he said I'm really weakling! That jerk will learn that I'm strong, too!"

Kuririn scoffed, "I think he's right. You're weaker than us. I mean, Saibaman blew you up."

Yamucha glared at Kuririn and scowled, "Shut up! I didn't know he got some strength left to finish me off. Oh, what about you? You are weak too! Freeza blew you up!"

"Umm? Freeza never blew me up. Freeza blew Naruto up. Why would you think that Freeza killed me?" confused Kuririn.

Yamucha began to blush and gulped, "Forget what I said." Kuririn immediately laughed because Yamucha was really embarrassed. They continued to soar past the river.

(Tenshinhan vs Orochimaru- Spinach Wastes)

Tenshinhan and Orochimaru continued to stare at each other, while Gohan, Raditz, and Sakura watched them as they were ready to fight, too. But they had to wait for the right time to strike back. They knew the plan even without discussing about strategy.

Gohan frowned, 'Tenshinhan-san…'

'Whatever you do, try your best to stall him until he let his guard down!' thought Sakura.

Raditz clenched his fists and thought angrily, 'Am I going to believe that this weakling can stall him for a while?'

Suddenly, Tenshinhan and Orochimaru disappeared together! Just then, they appeared on mid-air, and connected their fist. Then, they teleported each direction they go. Every time they strike each other, they would teleport somewhere. Finally, they appeared on mid-air, but Tenshinhan was the first to throw a punch.

However, Orochimaru caught Tenshinhan's fist, and chuckled, "You are not even worth my breath, Tenshinhan-kun!"

Tenshinhan shocked, "W-What?!"

Suddenly, Orochimaru punched him harder in the face. Then, he spun kicked Tenshinhan in the guts, doubled him over. Next, he delivered an elbow smash to the face, knocking him away. He teleported behind Tenshinhan, and immediately stopped him with his only palm. Then hand was too close to Tenshinhan's face.

Tenshinhan widened his eyes and shocked, 'W-What?! He stopped me with just his one hand?!'

Orochimaru chuckled, "Looks like you cannot fight back. You're weakest in the group, don't you agree? I know! I can torture you for a while. I just invented new technique. It might work for you." Suddenly, he released Ki to emit the purple aura around Tenshinhan's body.

Tenshinhan looked around him and shocked, "W-What's this?! What?! I can't move!" He struggled to move himself, but he could not seem to do that. No matter how much he struggle, he could not free himself!

"It's useless! You're paralyzed! I invented my own technique to paralyze you. I haven't come up with the new name. It's Ki technique although. Once I find this dull, you're done for."

Then Orochimaru started with kicking him away. Next, he appeared behind him, and punched him in the face, knocking him away. Once again, he appeared in front of him, and punched him harder in the guts, doubled him over. He gave him a mighty uppercut, knocking him up into the sky. Finally, he appeared above him, and knocked him down to the ground with Double-Ax Handle. However, Orochimaru kicked him away before Tenshinhan could land with a hard fall. Orochimaru did the same thing. Rinse and repeat. He played around with Tenshinhan!

Gohan shocked, "Tenshinhan-san!" He was going to help Tenshinhan, but Sakura stopped him. He looked up at Sakura and shocked, "Sakura-san!"

Sakura bared her teeth and explained angrily, "Wait for it! Once he got bored with Tenshinhan, he probably already forgets about us! The moment he is about to finish Tenshinhan, we intercept him! As long as we remain silent for the time beings, that is."

Gohan nodded, "Right!" They watched Orochimaru continued to beat Tenshinhan up by playing around with him. Orochimaru was doing rinse and repeat attacks.

(Piccolo vs Daisuke- Spindletop Flats)

Daisuke continued to charge up, as his energy sphere was getting bigger and bigger. He shouted angrily, "Be perish, you bastard!" He fired a powerful energy wave at Piccolo.

Piccolo fired a very powerful blue energy wave shot from a single hand, with the other arm supporting the one that was firing the attack, at Daisuke's energy wave. As soon as they connected, they became beam struggle. Such as two powerful beams collided, they began to push forward each other. All they saw the world was like flash to them. Well, that was because of their beam struggle. That energy caused the world flash into their eyes. But they seemed not to shut their eyes. In fact, they did not use their vision to fight. They focused into their own energy, attempting to beat each other. However, Daisuke's energy wave began to push Piccolo's energy wave forward.

Piccolo shocked, "W-What?!"

Daisuke kept pushing his own energy wave towards Piccolo's energy wave. He laughed evilly, "To think you would counter this like that! Useless! Useless! You cannot defeat me!" He powered up more, and continued to push Piccolo's energy wave.

Piccolo could see that Daisuke's energy wave was too close to him. He widened his eyes and panicked, "Shit! He's too strong for me!" He had no idea what he was supposed, but he remembered that he told Naruto that he would beat Daisuke. He snarled, "I can't give up!" He screamed before powering his energy wave up, pushing Daisuke's energy wave forward. The ground suddenly broke up into the fragments of rocks. He refused to give up until he gave all-out for the final time!" He continued to push Daisuke's energy wave towards Daisuke.

Daisuke shocked, "W-What?! Impossible! How could I be beaten?"

Piccolo released his powerful Ki into his energy wave, and pushed his own energy wave towards Daisuke and shouted, "DIE!" Finally, Piccolo's energy wave dominated Daisuke's energy wave in beam struggle, and impacted him dead-on.

Daisuke shocked, "Nooo! I-Impossible! I'm strongest de—" His echo faded out.

BOOM!

Piccolo stared at his own energy wave fading out, and panted heavily, "He's finally died…" Then he scoffed, "You thought wrong. You're not really strongest demon there is. You're weakest demon there is!"

Then, he looked around, and began to sense Gohan and others' Ki. 'Gohan… I'm coming!' Then, he flew on way to help Gohan and others.

(Tenshinhan vs Orochimaru- Spinach Wastes)

Orochimaru appeared above paralyzed Tenshinhan, and knocked him down to the ground with the Double-Ax Handle. Once again, Orochimaru kicked him away before Tenshinhan could land with a hard fall. Next, he appeared behind him, and punched him in the face, knocking him away. Once again, he appeared in front of him, and punched him harder in the guts, doubled him over. He gave him a mighty uppercut, knocking him up into the sky. Finally, he appeared above him, and knocked him down onto the ground with Double-Ax Handle.

Orochimaru glared down at Tenshinhan and sighed, "Looks like you're out already. How dull. As I promised, I will finish you off!" He placed his hand at Tenshinhan and began to gather the energy around his hand.

Sakura widened her eyes and shouted, "Now!" She immediately charged up towards Orochimaru, together with Raditz and Gohan.

Orochimaru scoffed, "Oh, it's you again. I didn't forget about you." He immediately disappeared before Sakura could even hit him.

Sakura widened his eyes and shocked, "W-What?!"

Orochimaru immediately appeared behind her and chuckled, "Right here!" He chopped to her neck, bashing her onto the ground. She just went to unconscious. "What a weakling girl!"

Raditz shouted, "You bastard!" However, Raditz ducked his head down before Raditz could blindside punch him from the behind. "Impossible! How do you know I was even here?!"

Orochimaru quickly grabbed Raditz's tail, weakening him. He chuckled, "I got your tail!"

Raditz could feel that his strength started to drop rapidly. He growled, "You bastard! Grabbing my tail like that!"

Gohan cried, "Uncle!"

Orochimaru looked around, noticing that Gohan was coming to help Raditz. He scoffed, "I can't believe you choose to join Gohan like that. You should be punished. You will be finished off after I finish your nephew and others." He blasted Raditz onto the ground. He blocked Gohan's attack, and punched him in the face, knocking him away a little.

Gohan rubbed his blood on his mouth, and panted heavily, 'He's too strong! I can't fight him like that! But I have to stall him until Naruto-san, or Sasuke-san gets here!'

Orochimaru snickered, "Son Gohan! You will be my toy for a while. It should be fun!"

Gohan snarled, "Darn it!" He charged towards Orochimaru, and punched him. However, that punch did not faze Orochimaru at all. "What?!"

Orochimaru chuckled, "Is that best punch you can throw? I guess I overestimate you." Suddenly, he kneed Gohan in the guts, doubled him over. Then, he backhand punched Gohan away onto the ground. He went to land on the ground.

Gohan struggled to get up, but he managed to get on his feet. He glared at Orochimaru and panted heavily, 'Darn it! W… What should I do? I-I can't beat him… Darn it!' He stared at Orochimaru carefully. However, Orochimaru suddenly vanished. "Huh?! Where did he disappear to?!"

Suddenly, Orochimaru appeared behind him and chuckled, "I'm right here!"

Gohan looked around at Orochimaru and shocked, "W-W-What?!"

Orochimaru smirked evilly, "Brat, I told you that you will be my toy for a while!" Once again, he backhand punched Gohan, completely bowled him over. He slowly walked towards Gohan and laughed, "At least, you can be my toy until Sasuke-kun gets here! Be grateful you guys are first to witness that I will mark Sasuke-kun! Sasuke-kun will seek me someday! It will be no fun if you won't see me doing that, right?"

Gohan could feel that his legs began to tremble for some reason. Perhaps, that was because Orochimaru beat him up. He slowly got up on his feet and snarled, "I'm Son Goku's son! I won't be defeated so easily!" Suddenly, he leapt towards Orochimaru and attempted to kick him.

However, Orochimaru blocked it easily, and chuckled, "What's the matter? You can't seem to touch me at all, huh?" He deflected Gohan's leg before punching him harder in the guts. That forced Gohan to fall on his knees. Then, Orochimaru immediately grabbed Gohan's long hair, and pulled him up roughly. "You're nothing but a bunch of weakling toy!" He proceeded to punch his face repeatedly, just to torture him for fun.

While lying on the ground, Raditz slowly lifted his head, and witnessed that Orochimaru continued to punch Gohan repeatedly. He groaned softly, "Gohan…"

While lying on the ground, Sakura looked up at Gohan who was being beaten up. "Gohan-kun…" Gohan began to become unconscious soon, while continued to take beating from Orochimaru. Tenshinhan remained unconscious.

(Kame House)

Suddenly, Chichi widened her eyes and cried, "Gohan-chan!"

Bulma looked around at Chichi and asked, "What's wrong?"

"My Gohan-chan is in danger right now!" worried Chichi. Roshi remained silent, while Oolong, Puar, and Maroon stared at her.

Bulma chuckled, "Don't worry. He will be fine. I'm sure he will come alive!"

Chichi sniffed, "Please come back, Gohan-chan!"

"Geez, it's Naruto's birthday. Now he has to fight someone to protect the world," complained Bulma.

(With Naruto- Dimensional Maze)

In the search of exit, Naruto got confidence that he could get out of maze as soon as possible. As long as he got faith in himself, that is. Every time he went to every wall, he found dead-end wall. He was not sure if he had been there before. He felt like he went there many times. He was really frustrated that he could not even get out of maze when his friends were in dangerous right now.

However, he finally managed to calm himself, and thought calmly, 'No time to get angry! Where's wall I have been there? Where's wall I never been there before? I'm sure there's only one that I never been there! Dammit! I forget where one! I wish I could do something so I can memorize them!' Suddenly, he realized something and chuckled, "That's right! Someone told me the secret of Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!"

(Flashback Began- Kaioshin Realm)

"Do you know what's the secret of Kage Bunshin No Jutsu, right?" asked Minato.

"Huh? No?" confused Naruto.

"Well, how do I put that way?" wondered Minato. Then he smiled, "To say the word so you can understand easier... When you separate your clone faraway, you will know what he's doing once he's dispelling."

Naruto widened his eyes and shocked, "Really?!"

Minato nodded, "Yes… Kage Bunshin No Jutsu's purpose was not for fighting only, but it's also for searching. If you want to find a certain person, you have to use Kage Bunshin No Jutsu in order to find them."

(Flashback Ended)

Naruto grinned, "All right! I will use Kage Bunshin No Jutsu to find the exit!" Then he crossed his fingers and shouted, "Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!" He created a lot of clones! He shouted, "Line up, soldiers!" All of clones immediately line up like an army. He walked, and looked at each of his clones, and shouted, "We shall march, and find the exit! Understood?!"

The clones shouted, "Yes, sir!"

Naruto glared at them and shouted, "I can't hear you! Say it loudly!"

The clones shouted, "YES, SIR!"

"We will have three groups!" explained Naruto. "I will be in Group 1! Group 1 goes to the middle! Group 2 goes to left! Group 3 goes to right! If you see other paths, you will scatter into each new groups, and go to different wall! Understood?!"

The clones shouted, "Understood!"

Naruto pointed over yonder, and cheered, "All right! Go!" Then all groups scattered into different directions.

(Gohan vs Orochimaru- Spinach Wastes)

Orochimaru continued to punch Gohan in the face repeatedly. No matter how much powerful Orochimaru was, Gohan could not seem to beat him. Every time Orochimaru landed a punch, Gohan got new bruise, and blood on the face.

Sakura was in shocked, because Orochimaru would beat kid up like that. That was cruel of him to do that! She clenched her fists and sniffed, "Dammit! Why am I so useless? Why can't I fight back? Gohan-kun!"

Finally, Orochimaru punched him in the face once again. He chuckled, "I guess your Father won't come back to see you! It's such pity for him not to see you again. About time you die, huh? Once I finish with all of you guys, I will kill your Father and even your Mother!" Suddenly, Gohan widened his eyes, and began to power up. "W-What?! Impossible!"

Gohan snarled, "Don't you dare killing my Mother!" He created a small shockwave, forcing Orochimaru to release his hair.

Orochimaru widened his eyes and shocked, "Impossible! To think you have some strength left to fight back!"

Gohan continued to power up and shouted, "I won't forgive you!" Suddenly, he delivered a powerful punch to Orochimaru. Then, he delivered a barrage of punch to Orochimaru in the guts. Next, he delivered a hard uppercut punch, sending him up into the sky. After that, he rocketed towards Orochimaru and punched him away once again. Finally, he teleported above Orochimaru, and slammed him down onto the ground with Double-Ax Handle.

Orochimaru weakly got up on his feet, and glared up at Naruto. He growled, "Dammit!" However, Gohan immediately flew down after Orochimaru. Orochimaru clenched his fists and shouted, "Don't get so cocky!" He disappeared before Gohan could even touch him!

Gohan landed on the ground and shocked, "What?!"

Orochimaru appeared in front of Gohan, and delivered a hard kick to Gohan. Raditz and Sakura could see that Orochimaru gave his all-out just to kick Gohan. They also could see that Gohan spewed out the blood from his mouth and knocked onto the ground.

Raditz and Sakura widened their eyes and shocked, "What?!"

Orochimaru panted heavily, and growled, "I need to kill you before you increase your power more! You really hurt me! You're irritating me, brat! I don't have time to wait for Sasuke to arrive. I must kill you immediately!" However, Gohan struggled to get up, but he finally managed to get on his feet. Orochimaru widened his eyes and shocked, "What?! I could swear that I kick you too hard! How did you get up after taking that much damage from me?!"

Gohan panted heavily, "I… I… I won't… give…" Unfortunately, he fell backward on the ground, but he was still not unconscious. He could not get up anymore because Orochimaru kicked him too hard.

Raditz and Sakura cried, "Gohan/-kun!"

Orochimaru growled, "Damn it all! Time to finish you off!" He placed his hand forward at Gohan and shouted, "Die!" He furiously fired a powerful energy wave towards Gohan.

Raditz cried, "GOHAN!" He disappeared thin in air.

Sakura cried, GOHAN-KUN!"

Suddenly, Raditz got in way of Orochimaru's powerful energy wave, as he took that attack. He screamed in pain.

BOOOOOOOOM!

Orochimaru laughed, "Looks like your death is finally coming out!" However, as soon as the smoke cleared, Raditz stood in front of Gohan! He shocked, "What?!"

Gohan slowly opened his eyes and looked up at Raditz. He smiled cheerfully, "Uncle, you saved m—" He widened his eyes and shocked, "U-Uncle…?" He could see that Raditz was burned. He sniffed, "Why?"

Raditz chuckled weakly, "W-What's wrong? Why are you worrying about me? I'm already dead after all… Heh… to think I would save my nephew like that… My body… my body moved on its own accord…. D-Don't… die… Gohan…" Finally, he collapsed on the ground and passed away.

Gohan crawled towards Raditz and shook his body. He began to shred his tear, and cried, "Uncle… Uncle… Uncle!"

Orochimaru chuckled, "Why are you crying? Isn't he your enemy? He's the enemy who kidnapped you and tried to kill your Father two years ago!"

Gohan bared his teeth, and clenched his fists angrily. Glaring at Orochimaru, he got up and snarled angrily, "He may have kidnapped me, and tried to kill my Father before! But he has changed this much! He saved me more than twice! Don't you talk bad about my family! He's part of my family! I won't forgive you!"

Orochimaru chuckled, "That's more like it! That's spirit there! However, you should know better when to fight me. You should know your own consequence if you fight me right here."

Gohan crouched down and declared, "I will defeat you!"

Just before Gohan was about to start the move, he heard the voice cried, "Hold on!" He looked up at the voice, and found out that it was Sasuke, Kuririn and Yamucha. He greeted happily, "Sasuke-san, Kuririn-san, Yamucha-san!" Sasuke, Kuririn, and Yamucha slowly landed on the ground.

Sakura cried happily, "Sasuke, Kuririn, Yamucha!"

Kuririn smiled, "Gohan! I'm glad you're safe here." Then he looked at deceased Raditz, and sighed, "I guess Raditz joined the force with you to defeat Orochimaru." Gohan simply nodded. "How did he die anyways?"

Gohan frowned, "He protected me."

Kuririn shocked, "What?! He protected you? Wow! That was really… awkward…."

Orochimaru stared at Sasuke and smirked, "So, Sasuke-kun, you have finally come here?"

For first time since Orochimaru and Sasuke saw each other, they finally settled down right now! Sasuke folded his arms and sighed, "Of course. What do you think I would do else? I'm going to fight you!"

Orochimaru chuckled, "I see the future. The future is that I will mark you very soon. Be prepared, Sasuke-kun!"

Sasuke confused, "Future?" He was not sure if Orochimaru could see the future, or not. He assumed that Orochimaru cannot see the future at all. He would not mind if he played in that part. He scoffed, "Well, then. I see the future. The future is that I will defeat you!"

To be continued…

A/N: Yo! Vegeta's still sleeping, so he should be fine. HE will wake up tomorrow, and will forget what happens. Please not tell him what he just did. He will be pissed off.
