NOTE: This is the final part of World's Strongest, the next movie will be named at the end of the chapter. The next set of movie choices will appear in the next chapter.
Now to answer some questions...
1. Stop asking for Dragon Ball Z Abridge. I will not write a fic about them watching it nor will I ever plan to. This is not a debate.
2. I did say before that they WILL watch History of Trunks and the Bardock Specials. They WILL NOT watch "Yo Son Goku and his Friends Return!" because that movie is actually canon to them and they know Tarble exists.
3. Everyone getting on each other's asses for what happens in these films isn't really harsh since they're like this with one another anyway. And it isn't like they're all gonna stop being friends and stuff.
4. If I decided to have them watch GT, it will be a fic seperate from this one. This is no promise that I'll do one, but if I get into the mood to make one I will.
5. All movies from this point forward are going to be three parts. I feel better giving you guys something than making you wait for my ass to find the time to finish one long ass chapter.
With all of that said...please review and enjoy.
Chapter 5: World's Strongest Part 3
Goku, Krillin, and Gohan run through an empty corridor to locate their friends. Both Gohan and Krillin are still feeling the effects of being frozen in solid ice, shivering as they run.
"Dad looks just fine though," Goten comments.
"He warmed up through fighting, Goten," Trunks told his best friend.
"Oh!"
"By the way, Goku, is Master Roshi up ahead?" Krillin asked.
"Yeah. They said he was all the way inside. Let's keep going as far as we can!" Goku responded.
Dr. Wheelo watched with anticipation as Goku and co. made their way to his location.
"Ugh! I'm already tired of hearing this overgrown brain," 18 complained.
"You and me both, 18," Krillin agreed.
The three finally arrived at the main lab of the evil lair. Goku runs to rescue Bulma, but is prevented by an invisible force field that shocks him full of electricity. It knocks him back, causing shouts of worry from his son and friends.
"I shouldn't have thought it would be that easy," Yamcha sighed.
"When has it ever been that easy?" Tien asked.
"We deserve to have it easy at least once," Yamcha replied.
Kochin's laughter echoes within the lab, the lights and monitor cut on, revealing the interior to the three. "Glad you could come, strongest guy in the world."
"Who are you!? Where's the Old Timer!?" Goku demanded.
"Would it kill you to show me a little respect!?" Roshi yelled at Goku.
"But, you are an old timer," Goku responded, simply.
"Master Roshi is sleeping quietly," Kochin answered.
"He's dead!?" Goten cried out, shocked.
"No you idiot! We already know he's not dead!" Trunks yelled.
"Oh yeah, you're right," Goten giggled.
Kochin revealed that he would be altering Roshi soon to be just like the other bio-warriors. When he finished speaking, Gohan noticed Dr. Wheelo in the back. Krillin stutters, wondering what it was.
"Father, that's a human brain!" Gohan pointed out.
"That's the brain of Dr. Wheelo, the devilish scientist who plotted to conquer the world fifty years ago with his mad scientific power!" Bulma explained.
"How rude of you to call the greatest mind of the century a devilish scientist!" Kochin defended his master.
"Yeah, because trying to take over the world and turn people into hideous creations isn't devilish at all," Bulma rolled her eyes. She was happy that their versions of Wheelo and Kochin were dead, they give scientists like her a bad reputation.
"You are devils, for carrying out your own selfish research, just because you're the one who says you can!" Bulma shouts. She turns around to glare at Dr. Wheelo. "How can you go on living, even taking on that form!? You should have perished a long time ago!" Bulma tyrates.
"Wow, I don't think I've ever seen Mom take something this personal before," Trunks gaped at his Mother's fierceness.
"Of course she is, Trunks. What they're doing is the same as insulting our Saiyan race. Your Mother has pride and she has no problem showing it," Vegeta smirked, proudly.
"Aw! If that isn't the nicest thing you've said, Vegeta!" Bulma hugged him.
"Kuh! Let go! People are watching!"
Krillin asked Wheelo if he really can live as just a brain. Kochin proclaims that they've managed to perfect it for the sake of their own goals.
"For us to enjoy the outright freedom in this world, we must alter all the worthless humans, and make you kneel before Dr. Wheelo. In order for us to realize this ideal world, and with our ambitions only half fulfilled, I arranged for the faller Dr. Wheelo's brain to at least go on living. It was our dream that one day, Dr. Wheelo and I would rule the world. However, the eternal ice and snow had Dr. Wheelo completely locked inside. The heavens must have been jealous of Dr. Wheelo's unlimited power and noble thinking. But thanks to the Dragon Balls, the time of our vengeance has arrived!" Kochin monologues.
"Whis?"
"Yes, Lord Beerus?" Whis answered.
"Keep a count for every time the Dragon Balls cause an issue for these mortals in these viewings," Beerus requested.
"May I ask why, Lord Beerus?" Wish asked, already knowing his next words.
"If it proves that these Dragon Balls continue to prove as a nuisance for the mortals, then that could mean even more trouble for me. If I deem the counter too high I'll just destroy the ones here on Earth and Namek without a second thought," Beerus explained.
"Hey wait! You can't just do that!" Bulma protested.
"I can and I will, unless you have something in mind, Bulma?" Beerus gazed at her.
"I do in fact! If once we're done with these viewings and see that the Dragon Balls are a problem, then you have free reign to destroy Earth!"
"WHAT!?" Everyone else looked at her as if she went crazy.
"And if they don't prove to be an issue?" Beerus looked interested now.
"Then you have to promise to never threaten to destroy us or anything of my choosing ever again!" Bulma placed the bet on the table.
"Fine, you have a deal. Just know that there are no take backs here, Bulma," Beerus leaned back in his seat.
"Hmph, I know that!" She turned and sat back down in her seat. Vegeta instantly got into his wife's face.
"Bulma! Do you have any idea what you've just done!?" He shouted.
"We'll be fine, Vegeta. Never doubt your beautiful wife," Bulma winked.
"Son Goku, I want your body, the strongest one in the world," Dr. Wheelo revealed.
"You what?" Goku gasped. Bulma explained that he plans to use Goku's body to take over the world.
"It'll be like swapping your low-grade brain for Dr. Wheelo's high-grade brain," Kocin said.
"So brain surgery?" Videl guessed.
"Don't be ridiculous! My brain and my body belong to me!" Goku refuses their plan.
"That will not do! Your body belongs to me!" Dr. Wheelo declared.
A red beam similar to the one that trapped Piccolo, ensnared Goku, causing him pain. Goku tried to break out, but it was too much for him to break out of. Gohan shouted for them to stop hurting his Dad.
"Then bust him out of there! Don't just stand around!" Hercule shouted.
"It's most likely a force field preventing those inside or outside from breaking in," Gohan tried to explain.
"Hmph! If I was there I'd have busted out in jiffy!" Hercule proclaimed.
"That should just about do it. Let that other man dispose of him," Dr. Wheelo commanded.
"I'm not gonna let you get away with it!" Gohan charged forward, but was knocked down by Wheelo's shout. Krillin tried to assist, but Piccolo with red eyes appeared in front of them.
"P-Piccolo?" Krillin gasped.
"So, they did capture him. Judging by his red eyes, he's definitely under mind control," Bulma assumed.
Piccolo groaned at the embarrassment of it all.
Scene shifts to Roshi slowly walking down the steps, to Goku managing to break out from his bonds. His feat amazed both of the evil scientists, confirming to Dr. Wheelo that Goku was the perfect body to take.
The mind controlled Piccolo and Goku stared each other down, ready to fight. Gohan rushed forward, not seeing the difference in his teacher.
"Mr. Piccolo, you came for me, right?" Gohan asked.
"Gohan! Don't get close to him!" Goku shouted.
Piccolo backhanded Gohan to the side harshly.
"How come Goku noticed and Gohan didn't?" Trunks asked.
"Because, Goku has the experience while at this time Gohan doesn't. He's young and blinded by his admiration for me," Piccolo answered. Gohan frowned at that, he didn't think his admiration for Piccolo would be an issue.
Piccolo dropped the weighted clothing and charged Goku. Krillin panicked looking back and forth between the two, since he was caught right in the middle. He ducked out of the way right before the clash.
"Don't say it," Krillin told 18. The cyborg didn't say anything; she placed her hand on his and held it, making him feel better.
Piccolo attacked the Saiyan relentlessly, while Goku dodged each of the punches. Backflipping away while Piccolo followed closely. Their fight is now going airborne within the lab.
"Mr. Piccolo! Father!" Gohan said. He and Krillin turned around to see Kochin bragging about how making Piccolo their servant was thanks to their science.
"Hmph, I'd like to see you try it now," He spat.
Gohan demands that he turns Piccolo back to normal and Kochin refuses, stating that Piccolo was now the servant of Dr. Wheelo. Gohan cursed his helplessness of the situation and watched as his Father and Teacher fought.
"Stop it, Piccolo!" Goku yelled. His scream didn't work, since Piccolo charged at him again. Hitting him with a sweeping leg kick, then a knee into his ribs. Gohan attempted to try and convince Piccolo to stop.
"Do you really think your words are going to work?" Vegeta rolled his eyes.
"It worked on you," Goku said.
"Shut your mouth, Kakarot!"
Bulma demands that they rescue her, to which Krillin tries to find a way past the barrier. Bulma suggested that he should try to cut the power source off. Gohan continues screaming for Piccolo to stop fighting his Dad. When the controlled Namek's eyes shift down at him again, Goku's concern returns.
"Gohan! Get away from him! He ain't the same Piccolo he usually is!" It was too late and Piccolo punched Gohan in his face, before he could strike again, Goku stopped him.
Both Piccolo and Gohan are uncomfortable seeing something like this happen to them. If it was just training then fine, but Piccolo was being forced against his will to attack them. Gohan felt his anger bubbling up at Dr. Wheelo and Kochin.
Videl placed a comforting hand on his shoulder to calm him down.
Their battle continues with both clashing equally, but Gohan continues to interfere, drawing Piccolo's attention. Piccolo attacks Gohan once more, charging a powerful demon wave at Gohan, the boy freezes in fear from the attack.
"GOHAN!"
Goku flips in and redirects the attack away from his son, but it leaves him open for Piccolo to attack him. Soon they once again are tangled in a mesh of punches and kicks. Tears build up in Gohan's eyes as he watches his Father and Piccolo battle. His gaze shifts over to Dr. Wheelo and his sadness turns into anger.
"It's all...it's all...IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!" Gohan roars in fury, generating a shockwave that rocks the entire lab.
"He always needed a push to get his head and heart ready," Piccolo smirked, seeing Gohan's resolve strengthen.
"I won't let you get away with this!" Gohan declares.
"Kid, what can you do?" Kochin mocks the young half-breed.
"Stop, Kochin! Do not provoke him any further!" Dr. Wheelo warns.
"This is all your fault!" Gohan repeats.
"Kid, you should go home and suck at your mommy's teats!" Kochin continues to laugh at the boy.
"Why I...kick his butt, Gohan!" Chi-Chi yelled. Nobody mocks her baby like that! Nobody!
"Kochin stop!" Dr. Wheelo warns again.
"This is all your fault!" Gohan yells just as Kochin opens the head of his cane. He presses a button and releases a power energy blast right at Gohan. The boy pushes back against it with his own willpower, dispelling the blast and creating more shockwaves. The shockwave was so strong that it almost destroyed Dr. Wheelo's container and cracked Piccolo's mind control device.
"Just break that crown thing and Piccolo will be freed!" Dende said.
"Yeah, then they can kick that brain's butt together!" Marron added.
"Do brains have butts?" Goten wondered.
Kochin attempted to reach for his cane, but Krillin knocked it away. "Release Bulma!"
The old man smirked, raising his hand at Krillin and, and breaking off the fake skin to reveal a metal hand. His arm shifted into a gun and he began firing at Krillin. The bald monk started running away and dodging the bullets. He ducked beneath Bulma's cage to not get shot. The scientist ducked down on instinct at the oncoming bullets, even though the shield was protecting her from them.
"He's lucky that the shield was protecting her," Vegeta grumbled.
Kochin got so ahead of himself with his shooting that he ended up destroying the generator for Bulma's cage. However, she was still chain in. Kochin got ready to shoot at them again, but Roshi showed up in time, breaking the arm gun.
"Good job, Roshi," Vegeta complimented.
"Yeah, thanks, old timer!" Bulma and Trunks said.
"Hehe! See, this old man is still worth something!" Roshi puffed his chest.
Piccolo's mind control crown fell apart as well, freeing him from their capture.
"And Mr. Piccolo's free!" Gohan smiled, happily.
"Mr. Piccolo!"
"Gohan…"
Everyone turned at the sound of Dr. Wheelo laughing. Smoking was coming out of his container. "I wasn't expecting my turn to come. You guys are promising." The lab began to shake and rumble from Dr. Wheelo's movements. Soon a giant body burst through the wall, Dr. Wheelo's massive brain inside of it.
"So, he had an exo-body this whole time! What's the point of having Goku's if you have that!? That's much more intimidating looking than that idiot!" Bulma pointed over at Goku. Who was busy stuffing his face with crab legs.
"Hey! Goku, where did you get those crab legs!?" Beerus demanded.
"MMFFHMG! RRGMMMGDFF!" Goku replied.
"He said he got them from the bar over there," Chi-Chi pointed at the seafood bar.
"How did you even understand him?" Vegeta asked.
"Live with him for as long as I have and you pick up things," Chi-Chi answered.
Dr. Wheelo stepped on the ground next to Kochin, breaking it and sending the assistant to his death. As he fell his body came in contact with a giant surge of electricity, it burnt off his skin to reveal a metal exo-skeleton. His body exploded right after.
"That's how he lived for so long, he managed to replace his own skeletal system with something that would last longer," Bulma said.
"Well, good riddance anyway," Videl said.
"Son Goku, if I had your body, I would have no use for this ugly one. I am about to be reborn as the mightiest, the most exalted, and flesh and blood Dr. Wheelo!"
"You've got to be kidding!" Bulma freaked out from the sight of Wheelo's body. All of the fighters got into stances, ready to fight Dr. Wheelo.
"I sense an incredible power," Goku said.
"Oh, come on! How strong could that brain possibly be?" Hercule scoffed.
"That's the guy who controlled me to do as he said? He's going to pay! He's going to pay for that!" Piccolo roared.
"Good! Time for some payback!" Piccolo agreed with his younger self.
Piccolo charged in at Dr. Wheelo, but something made his body freeze in place and he was smacked into the ground.
"Ok...he might be pretty strong…" Hercule gulped.
"What was that about payback, Namekian?" Vegeta teased.
"Shut up!" Piccolo yelled, flustered.
"You think I can be defeated by you!?" Dr. Wheelo jumped in the air to attack the other Martial Artists.
"A Kamehameha blast!" Roshi commanded his former students. Goku and Krillin followed his league, getting into position.
"Kamehame…"
"HA!" All three fired their attack at the same time, hitting Dr. Wheelo directly on, creating a gigantic explosion.
"Did it work!?" Yamcha asked.
"IT DIDN'T WORK!" Goku cried out.
"Welp, so much for hoping," The ex-bandit sighed.
Everyone moved out of the way, however Roshi was smacked into a wall, taking him out of the fight.
"It was once again fun while it lasted," The old man sighed.
Dr. Wheelo opened one of his claws and shot Krillin with a ki blast, taking him out of the fight as well. Bulma poked her head out from her hiding place, looking concerned for Krillin.
"Daddy!" Marron shouted in concern for her Father.
"It's ok, sweetie! I'm right here!" Krillin reassured her.
"So I ain't going to have any effect unless I use Kaioken, huh?" Goku said to himself. Suddenly he heard Gohan screaming and saw his son charging into the fight. "Stop, Gohan!"
The boy didn't listen and tried to attack with the Power pole, but he was instantly defeated. He fell right into Piccolo's arms. Goku caught the Power Pole and landed next to Piccolo. Dr. Wheelo attacked them, but they dodged the strike
"It was a good shot by my younger self," Gohan chuckled nervously.
"You did your best," Videl told him.
"And it wasn't good enough," Vegeta's cut dry response broke the lovey dovey atmosphere.
Bulma was helping Krillin sit up when Piccolo landed next to her and laid Gohan down on the floor.
"Extend, Power Pole!" Goku screamed. He used the pole to trip Dr. Wheelo while Piccolo rained down a storm of Ki blasts. It didn't work and Wheelo used his massive body to crash Piccolo into the ceiling.
Goku grits his teeth in anger at seeing Piccolo get defeated. "I'll do all I can while my body holds out! Kaioken, times three!" Goku shouts. His body glows dark red and he attacks Dr. Wheelo, taking off one of the Doctor's arms.
"Ka...me...ha...me...HA!" He fires his best attack at Dr. Wheelo. The Doctor strikes back with his own blast, the Ki attacks clashing dangerously. Goku was almost overtaken by Wheelo's attack until…
"TIMES FOUR!" With the added level of Kaioken he completely overpowered Dr. Wheelo, destroying the entire evil lair. Dr. Wheelo was sent flying into the stratosphere.
Most of the audience was cheering at Goku's victory over Dr. Wheelo. Enjoying the epic clash between the Earth bound Saiyan and the evil scientist.
Vegeta grumbled, being reminded of his first fight with Goku on Earth.
Goku was breathing heavily, his entire top torn off while the lab crumbled around him.
"You got him, Goku!" Krillin congratulated.
"No, not yet. He's still alive," Goku responded, looking up towards the sky.
"What!? He survived all of that!?" Yamcha complained.
"Boo!" The kids all yelled.
Within Earth's atmosphere Dr. Wheelo floats, chuckling at how strong Goku is. "Not bad, Son Goku. At this point, I'll use all of the energy that I can produce, and blow you and the rest of the earth away!"
"Why do bad guys always gotta blow up the Earth when they lose?" Trunks asked his Dad.
"Because they have no honor," Vegeta answered.
"But, Vegeta didn't yo-" Goku was cut off by Vegeta throwing another crab leg in his direction. The Earth Saiyan caught it in his mouth and ate it.
The large pillar within the destroyed lair began glowing, building up energy. Goku turned to all of his friends, telling them to run away. Gohan asks what his Father plans to do.
"My last resort! I'll stay here and let him have it with a Spirit Bomb!" Goku answered.
"That's going to take some time. Not sure if Wheelo will give it to you," Krillin said.
"Then we'll just have to make time," Piccolo countered.
"The ground, the seas, the skies, and everything alive throughout the earth…" As Goku chanted, the others were running away from the crumbling base. "Each of you, share with me a little of your energy! Not for my sake, but for everyone's sake!" Goku requested. He raised his hands up and felt the energy of the planet flow into him. "I'm starting to gather a little energy from everyone. A little more and I can make the Spirit Bomb!" Goku smiles at the warm energy he had gathered from the planet.
"What does he plan to do?" Dr. Wheelo asked, scared.
Goku clenches his fist and prepares to throw the Spirit Bomb. Before he could, Wheelo rains down a torrent of Ki blasts, hitting Goku dead on.
"Crap! I knew he wasn't gonna let him do it!" Krillin exclaimed.
Gohan turned around at the sound of his father's screaming and saw the lab get blasted even further to bits. Krillin says that Wheelo's energy continues to grow and Goku is seen lying on the ground defeated.
"What are they gonna do now?" Dende asked.
"The only thing they can do is fight," Piccolo answered.
Gohan gets angry and screams, he flies towards the sky to fight Wheelo. Looking to his left he sees Piccolo ready to do the same. "Mr. Piccolo?"
"We're going to stop him with all our might!" Piccolo's words hardened Gohan's resolve.
Pan cheered on her Uncle Piccolo and younger Father. Clapping her hands joyfully.
Wheelo was shocked by this development with Gohan smashing into him and Piccolo shooting a mouth beam point blank at him. The glass case for his brain began to crack even more. Krillin emerges from the clouds, ready to kick some ass...in a different film, because Wheelo easily bats him aside.
"OH COME ON!" Krillin complains.
Piccolo grits his teeth and Wheelo laughs triumphantly. "May you and the rest of the earth become space dust!" The mad scientist prepares to launch his final attack.
Goku is seen standing on his feet with a smile on his face. In his hands is the Spirit Bomb, ready to be fired. "It's warm...it's so warm…"
"Is that what it feels like, Dad?" Goten asks.
"Yeah, all of the good energy from the planet is like a warm blanket placed over your body. Almost like you can fall asleep on the best bed ever," Goku explains.
Dr. Wheelo launches his final attack down at the planet, much to the dismay of the Heroes. Goku doesn't look worried at all.
"To all of you on the planet, thanks! OFF YOU GO!" Goku throws the bomb into Wheelo's beam. The Spirit Bomb easily overpowers Wheelo's attack. Gohan and Krilln stop in place as they feel the energy within the Spirit Bomb, all of the people and lifeforms who gave their energy to stop Wheelo. The attack hits Wheelo and obliterates him completely, bringing his ambitions to an end.
"Isn't it ironic that Wheelo wanted to rule the planet, and the world itself rejected his wishes," Gohan said.
"When you say it like that it almost sounds poetic," Krillin laughed.
"At fitting punishment for someone of his standards. His evil ambitions are purged by the light of the world," Whis added.
"Hey! Over here! Over here! He's alive!" Roshi yelled.
Everyone stood over Goku as he woke up. He sat up and saw that they won. Piccolo paused in his departure. "Gohan did well." The boy looked as if Christmas had come early by Piccolo's compliment.
"Dr. Wheelo did have one commendable point," Roshi said.
"Huh? What are you talking about?" Bulma questioned.
"He did say I was the greatest in the world," Roshi grinned.
"And here you are, its greatest lecher, huh?" Bulma commented. The viewing ended with everyone laughing at Roshi's expense.
Everyone laughed at Bulma's burn, while the old man grumbled about getting made fun of for his hobbies.
When the laughing ceased, Bulma got up from her seat. Is everyone ready for the next one?" She asked.
"YEAH!"
"And our bet is still ongoing, Bulma," Beerus reminded.
"Yeah yeah, I know," She replied and started the next one up.
The double helixes began to twirl once more spinning together before exploding into multiple stars. The screen turned black and a title appeared on the screen in front of everyone.
WRATH OF THE DRAGON
