Chapter 41; The Plan
Piccolo was fast but not fast enough to help Vegeta it would seem. After celebrating his new found power after his fusion with Nail/Guru the Namek began to head towards the Ki signatures of the Tyrant Lord Friezia and the King of Sayian's Vegeta monitoring the battle the whole time as he tested his new found speed without the aid of the Kao-Ken technique.
The Super Namek arrived just in time so see Friezia use his telekinesis to hold Vegeta in place before smashing the Sayian kings ribs with a devastating punch. The Namek knew he had a choice to make at that moment he could I've jump into the fight now and save Vegeta from further injury or he could use this opportunity to charge up his signature attack that he used to vanquish Raditz and Goku with well over a year ago hoping it will be enough to defeat the seemingly invincible tyrant.
"What are you staring at Namek! Here to witness the death of the King Of Sayians !" The voice spat in the back of Piccolo's mind as Vegeta sent a telepathic message.
Piccolo was shocked he hadn't thought he had been spotted but on careful inspection he noticed the Kind Of Sayians was looking past his tormentor directly at the Namek himself even though he was still being tortured Vegeta had the concentration to send another angry message.
"You better run along you Green freak once he has had his fun with me he will come after you" Vegeta mentally growled.
Piccolo couldn't help himself his warrior pride couldn't help but respond to the Sayians taunts.
"Actually I was thinking about if I was going to save your little runt ass or focus on a powering up a technique to finish off you and Friezia in one go! But since your being a smart mouth and I just remembered you ordered the killing of many of our people I think I will go with plan B" Piccolo's voice was smug and confident and the Namek enjoyed the momentary look of shock on Vegeta's face.
"Do you really believe you have a technique that can kill Friezia!" Vegeta responded a challenging tone mixed in with a pained voice.
"Yes problem for you is it will take me around five minutes to charge it to guarantee its success I doubt you will last that long" Piccolo replied back bluntly.
"Hahahahaha is that a challenge Namek!" Vegeta replied back "Just hurry up and charge that attack of yours... and you better hope that your right otherwise Friezia will be the last of your worries"
The Mental connection cut off Piccolo flouted high up in the air positioning one of the three hot Namek suns in between himself and the tyrant Friezia in the hope that if the Frost Demon decided to gaze his way the blinding light would obscure him from view. Without wasting a moment more and appreciating the sacrifice the King Of Sayian's was making the son of the Demon King Piccolo bent his knees in mid-air arched his back before placing two fingers to his forehead. A powerful aura cackled around the Namek as lightning crackled around the finger tips held to the green skinned man's forehead.
Piccolo watched Friezia slowly torture Vegeta with emotionless eyes the Namek honestly didn't care that the Sayian was feeling pain as far as he was concerned he deserved it after what he had done to not only the Namek race but also the many other races he had tormented over the years. But Piccolo couldn't help but respect Vegeta for the true warrior he was.
Vegeta had fired a beam into the Frost Demon's face and wrapped his body around the tyrants body before yelling out at the Namek.
"I held my end of the bargain Namek! I gave you the five minutes you needed you better hope that blasted attack works because if it doesn't I'll break you in half! "
"Fool" Piccolo mentally scolded the King. The Namek had wanted the element of surprised to get a clear shot of the tyrant and he still needed more time to guarantee that his attack would be deadly to Friezia. But it was too late now all Piccolo could do was attack.
"Special Beam Cannon" Piccolo roared firing his attack.
The beam pierced the chest of Friezia just as the Frost Demon had turned around before it pierced though Vegeta's chest red blood splattered out of the King of Sayians stomach as his body fell limply into the Green Namekian sea. The water and blood mixing to create a brown colour. The Frost Demon mouth was hung open in pure shock his hands stiff at his side.
The after-image of Friezia faded out of sight much to the dismay of Piccolo. Who was suddenly taken aback by the appearance of the tyrant himself in front of him. The Frost Demon's arms were crossed over his perfectly white chest a scowl upon his face.
"I was enjoying my little game Namek and you took that away from me" The Frost Demon growled his tail flicking wildly left and right in annoyance. "I don't no what has annoyed me more the attempt on my life or the fact you killed one of my best pet monkeys.. that right is reserved for me alone."
With deadly precision the Frost Demon swung his body round intending to smash the pathetic Namek to send his lifeless body flying off into the distance.
Crack! Piccolo caught the tyrant's tail in his powerful green hand before quickly tightening his grip on the appendage so the Frost Demon couldn't move it. The look of shock on Friezia's face was priceless to Piccolo and the Namek allowed a small smirk to cross his face before he swung the tyrant over his shoulder down towards the water below. Just as the Namek had released his opponent he moved his hands and interlinked them above his head as a yellow ball of energy began to form.
"Masenko-ha" Piccolo cried as he threw his hands forward and fired the yellow wave.
The beam struck the back of Friezia smashing the tyrant into the green ocean below causing waves to fly into the air.
Friezia was in a state of shock and didn't really feel much apart from a painful stinging sensation from the wave attack that sent him crashing into the ocean but even this did little to distract the tyrant from his thoughts.
"This is just typical I wait patiently for years for a warrior to even match a percentage of my true forms power and two come at once. I expected Vegeta to eventually make it especially with all the training facilities I supplied to him. But a native from a back water planet like this? How is that even possible? And why didn't he appear earlier when I was murdering his people? it's actually lucky he didn't if he came at the same time as that other powerful Namek he could have killed me before I had a chance to transform... Well I suppose I can find the answers to my questions the traditional way. "
Noticing that he was surrounded by the green water of the Namek's ocean Friezia considered for a moment how he would approach the Namek who had manage to put him under the surface of the water. The tyrant could use his speed to suddenly appear behind the Namek and tap him on the shoulder showing the green man just how out classed he was or the tyrant thought was the more dramatic approach a true display of his strength and power with also a little hint of his flair.
Well... Frezia did fancy himself as a showmen and someone who was able to give him a challenge however tiny in his true form deserved some "Special treatment".
Crossing his right foot behind his left and stretching his arms out to his side the Frost Demon prince bowed his head ready for his introduction to his "audience". The tyrants eyes glowed blue as a thin purple aura hovered around the outline of his body before the tyrant using his telekinesis split the ocean water in half. Both half's going in the directions the tyrants fingers were pointing. Not even a droplet of the green coloured water remained on his skin. Slowly a small smirk on his perfectly white face Friezia rose up into the air to the same height as the Namek but as he did so he also lifted the oceans water with him. Leaving the ocean floor bear for over one hundred miles of square feet. But the tyrant had not only lifted the ocean water sea creatures that were native to the Namek's water were visible still swimming in the water as the Frost Demon continued his assentation.
Piccolo had his guard up as the Namek watched the tyrant arise from the ocean. The Namek wanted to spit in disgust as how Friezia was holding himself as if he was some kind of god the Namek wanted nothing more than to smash the Frost Demons face in but his martial arts Instincts told him to wait to see what the tyrant was planning and try and feel out just how strong he truly was. It would be foolish to underestimate the tyrant especially since so far every time a new challenge was presented to his power Friezia would suddenly present a new transformation.
Having reached the same height of the Namek Friezia slowly raised his head revealing to Piccolo or the first time his blue glowing eyes. The tyrant could see that the Namek had his guard up obviously spooked by the Frost Demon's show of power and the tyrant chuckled in his mind as he thought of the voice he would put on. It would be godly.
"It has been a long time since I have met someone who could throw me at five percent of my power. For that I must congratulate you Namek " Friezia's voice was dark and husky seeming to coming from everywhere and nowhere as if he was a disembodied god talking down from the heavens. "The lightening's not right " The Frost Demon thought as he sent small vapours of water into the air to block out the sun with black clouds lightning suddenly started to crash down from the ssky moments later.
"What a show off" Piccolo muttered to himself clearly disgusted at Friezia's display. The Namek wanted to attack then but he thought it would be best to let the tyrant get on with his show and get carried away dropping his guard even more. The Namek born on Earth began channelling his energy to his hands.
"But I do wonder, how is it you manage to gain such sense what is your secret? Some kind of sacred water perhaps" Friezia voice was still disembodied but the last part was clearly sarcastic little did the tyrant know something of that existed on Earth.
Piccolo remained silent his expression neutral his emotions completely in cheek his sole focus on channelling his energy into his hands and watching Friezia to make his move.
"Silence is not an option Namek! Speak now or suffer the consequences! Who knows if I am satisfied with your answer I may let you join my ranks" Friezia voice was laced with venom but truth be told the tyrant was actually beginning to enjoy himself having found a new plaything. "Let's just hope he's not as fragile as Vegeta" The tyrant thought to himself.
Their was another moment of silence as Friezia stared menacingly at Piccolo trying to get the Namek to speak up. Their was something oddly familiar about the Namek now the tyrant was getting a decent look at him but the Frost Demon couldn't place it besides he was getting bored and wanted to continue with his entertainment.
"I warned you" Friezia roared throwing his hands forward in front of himself.
The ocean water went flying forward in front of the Frost Demon before arching inwards towards Piccolo. The Namek tried to avoid the attack but he couldn't avoid a whole oceans worth of water. The Namekian sea engulfed him.
Friezia's eyes glowed brilliantly blue as his purple aura expanded around him as he slowly but surly began to compress the ocean water around the Nameks body.
Inside the Namek ocean Piccolo mouth was clamped up as he held his breath he could feel the water pressure rising as the liquid became more compressed. The Sea creatures began to come closer and closer towards him. The warrior from Earth was sure the tyrants intention was I've to drawn him or crush him under the force of the ocean but Piccolo wasn't prepared to wait and see.
Throwing his hands forward the Namek released the energy he had been storing in his hands and fired towards the Frost Demon. The blast of energy smashed out of the ocean and flew towards Friezia. The Frost Demon smashed the attack away with his left palm but the attack was enough to break the tyrants concentration. As the ocean came crashing back down to the planets surface and flooded the land as it desperately began to move flow back to it's old location. Piccolo covered the distance between him and Friezia and smashed the tyrants jaw with a terrifying right hook.
Purple blood flung out of Friezia's mouth as his head swung violently to the left due to the force of Piccolo's punch. Crunch! The Namek smashed his left knee into the tyrants stomach doubling the white skinned monster over. Piccolo interlocked his hands and axe hammered Friezia's back sending the Frost Demon flying downwards towards the newly reformed sea.
Friezia was done playing around. Powering up to twenty percent of his true forms power. A purple aura burst around the tyrants body as he righted himself in mid-air and immediately flew up and uppercuted Piccolo smashing the Namek directly under his chin drawing blood from the green man. The Namek tried to claw at the Tyrant's face as he was driven upwards by Friezia's uppercut but the tyrant had already forced the Namek backwards away from him by landing an elbow smashed against Piccolo's chest.
Air gushed out of the Namek's lungs as he was flung backwards but he kept his awareness up and blocked Friezia follow up punch. The shock wave from the impact echoed around the landscape as Piccolo draw in a breath and ignited his own drawing forth most of the power he had in him to match the strength he felt from Friezia.
The two began to exchange blows at super sonic speeds. If anyone had been around the area at the time they wouldn't have been able to keep up with the Namek or the tyrants movements all they would hear was the clash of fist or feet against flesh whenever a blow had manage to slip under the other defence.
After over nine thousand blows were exchange all done in under two minutes the two opponents separated from eachother in mid-air and stared each other down their posture was mirrored both flouted side on their arms crossed a cocky smirk upon both of their faces as if victory was assured. The only difference was their breathing Piccolo was breathing slightly heavier and their was small blankets of sweat on his brow where as Friezia hadn't even broken a sweat and his breathing was completely normal.
"I'm impressed I haven't had to use twenty percent of my power to fight an opponent outside of my family for over fifty years. Let alone have they been able to match me. It would be such a waste to kill a fighter of your ability wouldn't you rather come work for me I'll even allow you to have your own planets that you can name after yourself and do as you wish and I have never made this offer to anyone before so I am being more than generous" Friezia's voice was calm and business like as he spoke as if he was in a board meeting.
Piccolo glared at the tyrant with a gaze that sent daggers he was completely shocked that the tyrant had the audacity to invite him to work under him after he had wiped out his people. Even if Piccolo was still stuck in his evil ways he wouldn't have accepted the offer wanting to rule under his own power but now he was simply disgusted. Spitting into the ocean floor the Namek removed his weighted clothing and flung it into the sea.
"Thanks for the offer but i'll think I'll pass. I came here to kill you and I intend to carry that out" Piccolo growled moving into his demon style stance as his dark purple aura burst around him.
"What a pity throwing your life away like this. You could have been a lord and now your just going to be dust. I predicted that I can destroy you with twenty-five percent of my power." Freizia voice was bland and almost disappointed as he two moved into his stance as he powered up to twenty five percent. "I can't promise your death will be quick but I can promise it will be painful."
The tyrant moved forward intending to close the distance and deliver a power charged right kick into the Namek's stomach however before the tyrant could get within three foot of the green skinned man. A right fist smashed against the left side of the Frost Demon's cheek causing purple blood to splatter out of the tyrants mouth.
Piccolo had used his ability to stretch his limbs to any length at will to his advantage catching Friezia off guard with the right handed punch the Namek then sent withdrew his right fist as he extended his left foot at the same time the left foot cracked into the Frost Demon's stomach doubling him over in pain.
"You Barst-" Before Frieza could shout out his insult Piccolo's left hand grabbed the tyrants throat gripping around the Frost Demon's neck.
The Frost Demon lips turned into an angry scowl the grip around his throat did nothing to hamper him the Frost Demon race had evolved beyond the need to breath in order to survive it was just a luxury they par took much like how Namek's didn't need food to survive but ate out of pleasure. However the Tyrant didn't liked to handle in such away it was disrespectful.
Grabbing Piccolo's wrist the Tyrant vice grip drew purple blood as he dug his perfectly black nails deep into the Namek's green flesh. Instead of releasing his grip as the Frost Demon expected him to the Namek began to retreat his left arm at the same time he extended his right the result was the collision of Piccolo's right fist connected against Friezia's nose.
Unsurprisingly the nose lost the collision purple blood sprayed outwards as the tyrant's head snapped back. If Friezia was angry before he was pissed now. Instantly powering up to thirty percent of his power without even thinking the tyrant summoned a razor blade of Ki around his hand much like one of his brother's underlines used and slashed at Piccolo's left arm.
Purple blood splattered every were as the green limb fell to the ocean with a splash. Before Friezia could grin in satisfaction at what he had done a powerful left knee smashed against his right temple. Piccolo had ignored the pain of his left arm being decapitated Guru's memories of his battle with Friezia letting him know not to give a tyrant anytime to recollect himself after any attack. So as soon as he felt the Ki blade sliding though his arm Piccolo had flung himself forward.
Now that Friezia was flying backwards though the air the Namek took the second need to gather his energy to regenerate the limb. To Piccolo's pleasant surprise the fusion had another benefit other than a power boost it also granted him greater regenerative abilities. But he didn't allow himself to get pre-occupied in admiration for his new abilities he could feel the Frost Demon had already surpassed his own power. The only way to win the fight at this time was to keep up his attacks while he had Friezia off balance and deal enough damage to deplete the tyrants power.
Fazing out of sight Piccolo moved above the still moving form of Friezia his hands locked together ready to jack hammer the tyrant towards the ground. The Namek saw the glint in Friezia's eyes to late the Frost Demon had been waiting for the Namek to make the next attack. Lifting his arms out straight a small smirk upon his face the tyrant shouted out one of his favourite techniques one he hadn't used in a while.
"Imprisonment ball!" The tyrant cackled immediately a bright light burst out and surrounded Piccolo.
The Namek was shocked by the sudden ball of yellow that surrounded him but his reflex's took over he immediately swung both his hands out to his sides and fired two beams of energy against the walls of his prison both of which rebounded off the wall and smashed against Piccolo forearms which the Namek had instinctively lifted up to block the attack.
Friezia casually floated up to an up right position as he wiped blood from his face the Frost Demon then folded his arms over his chest as he smiled at Piccolo smugly.
"You like it? I came up with this technique a few decades ago. Nothing you do will be able to get out of it and all your energy blast will rebound onto you. I can hit you as much as I like from outside but if the ball hit's anything else. BOOM! It explodes. It simple is a wonderful technique I normally reserve it for my brother you should feel honoured that I used it on you"
"Excuse me if I don't feel thrilled" Piccolo grunted as he eyed the sphere around him. It was clear the attack was based on Ki being mixed with telekinesis if he could just concentrate for a few moments he was sure with his knowledge now increased by Guru he would be able to dispel the attack.
"How rude" Friezia growled uncrossing his arms and cracking his knuckles as me clenched his fists. "I suppose I have to beat some manners into you!"
The tyrant smashed his right fist into the Namek's stomach Piccolo tried to react to block but found his body was suddenly frozen as if an invisible force was holding him in place restraining him. What was restraining him was obviously Friezia telekinesis but Piccolo didn't know how it worked or figure a way to fight it as he was distracted by the sudden pounding Friezia gave to his abdomen. The tyrant sent quick powerful punches in the Green Man's stomach bending him over in pain before delivering a right handed upper-cut which connected just under Piccolo's chin.
Piccolo was flung upwards into the air. Friezia flashed out of sight appearing above Piccolo's flight path interlocking his fingers together ready to jack hammer the Namek down into the ocean floor.
Blood dripped from Piccolo's mouth as he was souring to the air towards the oceans surface the Namek's body was accelerating faster and faster as he descended.
"If the ball hit's anything else. BOOM! It explodes" Friezia voice rang though Piccolo's mind as his eyes closed shut ready for the immediate impact bracing himself.
Suddenly the Namek stopped in mid-air opening his eyes Piccolo saw that Friezia had stopped him just an inch before he hit the ocean floor. The tyrants arms as they always were when he spoke to what he consider inferior beings were folded across his chest a smug grin upon his face.
"Did you really think I would let our little game end soon?"Friezia chuckled before flicking his tail upwards and sending the ball flying into the air again.
The Tyrant then began to have a little completion with himself a mini-game of tennis so to speak. Were he would knock the ball in one direction dace in front of it and knock it back to it's previous location. The game was amusing the tyrant but the Frost Demon quickly grew bored and thus with a flick of his tail he sent the yellow imprisonment ball which held Piccolo down into the ocean.
Boom! The explosion echoed around the landscape as shock wave's of the attack caused the ground of the beaches that lined this part of the Namekian ocean to crack. Water sprayed down from the sky like a waterfall as the Frost Demon held his hands open in front of his body to embrace the cold salty water. It was quite a soothing sensation and was really quite pleasant.
Crack! The pleasant sensation was cut short as a strong Namkian fist implanted it's into Friezia's stomach. The tyrants eyes were bulged open as his body was doubled over by the force of the blow. Piccolo appearing completely unhurt even his injuries for their previous battle having had mysteriously vanished had timed his moment to catch the tyrant off guard. The green giant from Earth smirked as a purple light began to illuminate from within his closed fist.
"You didn't really think you could kill me that easily!" The Namek growled before firing the beam point blank into the Frost Demon's chest.
The blast exploded against the tyrants pure white flesh scoring his skin as he flew backwards into the air.
"This is impossible!?" Friezia thought to himself as he continued to fly backwards in the air "I use that attack on Cooler every time we spare and he is injured by the explosion... his power maybe nothing to mine but ... It can't be!? Could this Namek really be stonger than Cooler? I may need to take this fight more seriously than I first thought"
His fist clenched tightly into fist's the Frost Demon twisted out the way of Piccolo's right kick that had been aimed at the tyrants back. Friezia placed his elbows to his hips. Piccolo moved to charge the tyrant but was stopped by a strong wave of energy which smashed into him as a dark purple aura collided into him.
"Raaahhahaaaaaaaarraaa" Friezia roared as he powered up to half his true forms power. "I hope your ready Namek only a few have ever experienced me using fifty per cent of my true power!"
Piccolo was stunned by the statement and the amount of power that radiated of the Frost Demon. The Namek knew if this was just fifty per cent of Friezia's power he would have to rely on the Kao-Ken technique in order to just keep up with the tyrant. However before the Green giant could summon the familiar red aura he was accustomed to having around himself.
The Tyrant Lord Friezia was upon him. The white skinned Frost Demon was not taking any chance now as he pummelled Piccolo's body with punches that was so fast to the Namek that to block a single hit would be like a normal everyday human trying to catch a bullet while blindfolded. The power behind the punches was drawing blood as the Namek's skin cracked and broke apart staining the left white hand of the Lord with purple blood.
All Piccolo could do was grunt in pain as the hit's continued to rain out on him spit flew out of his mouth every time Friezia smashed him in the stomach. Blood every time a fist connected to his face. Finally after a couple of minutes into the beating the Namek manage to lift his arms up in a cross shape in front of him in an attempt to guard his face and body from sustaining any more damage.
"Do you think your puny guard will stop me" Friezia cackled as he sped up his assault throwing faster and harder punches into Piccolo's forearms.
Within seconds the Namek's broken arms fell limply to his side as the tyrant quickly flipped backwards away in the air before flouting up right his right foot just behind his left ankle as he raised on of his right matalic index finger to his lips. A small ball of purple energy appeared just above the index finger.
"Special Beam Cannon" Piccolo cried.
The Frost Demon was taken aback he could hear the Nameks voice from behind him but that was impossible the Green skinned man was in front of him covered in purple blood. This moments distraction was enough time for Piccolo created by the multiform technique who had been the first to fight Friezia until he got thrown away in the imprisonment ball technique to land his signature attack on the tyrant.
The Special beam cannon pierced though the middle of Friezia's chest. Purple blood splattered out of the Frost Demon's mouth as blood dripped down his chest. The small ball of purple energy that was just above the index finger disappeared into nothing as Friezia moved his hands to the whole of his chest and then looked at his blood soaked hands in utter shock and confusion. His eyes wide as pain burned though out his insides.
The smirked upon the Piccolo's in front of him face filled Friezia with angrier and the tyrant was fury was turned up even further when the Namek began to chuckle.
"You didn't really think I didn't have a trick or two up my sleeve? My father was a Demon King he wrote the book on underhanded tricks." Piccolo laughter grew louder and stronger district the pain he was in from his previous beating.
The Frost Demons face grew bright red in angrier but just before he could speak the other Piccolo the one who had shot him with the Special Beam Cannon technique appeared behind the tyrant before jack hammering Friezia into the ocean below. The tyrant smashed into the ocean floor with a huge splash sending a wave of water seven feet into the air. As quick as a flash the original Piccolo ripped off his duplicates broken arms. Purple blood squirted out the two holes created by the lose of the Namek's arms before the Green giant regenerated them.
"Lets finish this!" The two Piccolo's said in unison as they stretched their hands out and began to fire dozens of Ki blasts down into the Ocean.
The planets ocean would be the tyrants watery grave.
