Chapter 17

A couple months passed as the group trained together and genuinely enjoyed each other's company. Kami had done as he promised and restored the dragon balls enabling Shenron to be summoned again. He had fully restored Shenron the first month, but he wanted to give the dragon balls time to expel the negative energy stored within them before another wish was made. The build up of negative energy in the dragon balls could be disastrous

They decided to go Dragon Ball hunting together in order to stay together. Everyone was also anxious to meet the man that raised Goku and Vegeta, so they wanted to help his revival in anyway they could. They noticed that 3 of the dragon balls were already assembled in the same place so they decided to get the last 4 first to prevent any wishes being made and then converge at the location of the others

After saying farewell to Kami and Popo, the group entered Bulma's plane and flew toward the location of the closest dragon ball. When they arrived at the first site, they could see many people on the ground searching for something. It was easily assumed that they were searching for the dragon ball as well and after a quick game of rock, paper, scissors it was decided that Tien and Chiaotzu would retrieve the dragon ball

With Tien and Chiaotzu

Tien scoffed and hopped out the plane that continued flying to the location of the next dragon ball with Chiaotzu in tow. The moment they reached the ground the group of soldiers noticed them. Suddenly they were both surrounded by about 30 people with guns pointed towards them

Putting their hands up in mock surrender, Tien watched as the group parted to reveal a tall, well built man with red hair. He looked annoyed, but Tien and Chiaotzu could feel the malice radiating from him

"Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Colonel Silver of the Red Ribbon Army. State your names and your purpose here and I may let you walk away" Colonel Silver said impatiently

"Relax buddy, we're just here for an item called a dragon ball. Once we find it then we'll be on our way" Tien said impassively before turning and starting to walk towards the soldiers

The soldiers all looked shocked at the three eyed man's boldness. They all raised their weapons and prepared to fire if he attempted to escape. Tien just looked at the men unimpressed before turning back to address Colonel Silver

"Hey, can you tell your men to move? I'd rather not have to move them myself" Tien said noticing the vein beginning to form on Colonel Silver's head

Without saying a thing he charged at Tien. Colonel Silver had grown tired of the man's disrespectful nature and decided to take him out himself, but as he hit Tien square in the jaw he realized he was outclassed. The pain in the hand used to hit Tien's face told Colonel Silver that this was no ordinary man. He looked at the unaffected Tien with fear slowly starting to form in his face. He took a few steps back to put more distance between them.

"Men fire your weapons these two must not be allowed to leave this place. They could cause problems for the army, we must neutralize them here and now" Colonel Silver shouted while running behind his men and out of the line of fire

Gunshots rang throughout the air as every soldier pulled the trigger of their weapons. The bullets soared towards Tien and Chiaotzu who just stood still as the projectiles headed towards them. When the bullets got close enough to almost touch them Chiaotzu simply raised his hand

All the bullets stopped dead in their tracks with an luminous light blue glow around them. Colonel Silver and his soldiers were shocked to see all the bullets floating in the mid air, but they were even more shocked to see that the reason behind that was the little boy that hadn't said a thing the entire time they were there

Chiaotzu looked up at his longtime best friend with a questioning glance

"Shall I kill them Tien?" Chiaotzu asked sending chills down the spine of every soldier there. He flipped the bullets back in the direction they came from keeping them still in midair awaiting Tien's order. The soldiers were terrified of the telekinetic power display in front of them and knew that their lives were in the hands of the two people that they had just threatened and fire upon

Tien pondered the question for a moment before shaking his head no. He and Chiaotzu had long since abandoned the Crane school assassination methods. They now had more honor than that and there was simply no reason to kill the men who were doing as they were ordered to do by their commander

Chiaotzu nodded in understanding before releasing his hold on the bullets letting them drop to the ground. Together he and Tien walked past the group who parted to allow the 2 to pass. Tien looked at Chiaotzu once again as he suddenly got an idea

"Hey Chiaotzu can you lift the rocks in the area so I can see the dragon ball?" Tien asked

Chiaotzu nodded and used his telekinesis to effortlessly lift the rocks in the surrounding area revealing the dragon ball sitting in a little patch of grass

Tien picked the ball up smirking at Chiaotzu who smiled back before dropping the rocks scaring the soldiers who were still spectating the power of Chiaotzu

"Great Job now lets fly back to the others" Tien said floating before flying in the direction the plane went in following Vegeta's energy signal with Chiaotzu in hot pursuit

When they were out of site Colonel Silver snapped out of his stupor and regained his senses. He ran back to his tent to call headquarters

"Hello this is Silver. We have ran into a problem, please inform the commander that there are more people after the dragon balls and they have powers. This could be bad…"

With Krillin and Yamcha

Meanwhile Bulma had dropped Yamcha and Krillin off at the location of the other dragon ball. They were at a place called Penguin Village and they were already getting acquainted with some of the citizens

The most interesting of these citizens was a little girl named Arale. She had easily destroyed the troops that were attacking her village and Yamcha and Krillin couldn't help but be impressed

Unfortunately her actions had forced the troops to call back up and the Calvary came in the form of General Blue. He was a young man with short blond hair with a superiority complex and Krillin instantly didn't like him

They were currently in a stand off with the dragon ball being in Yamcha's hand. They had found it moments before General Blue arrived and he demanded that they hand the ball over to him stating that he'll take it by force if necessary

Hearing this Krillin instantly stepped forward eager to meet the challenge. General Blue rubbed him the wrong way so he relished the opportunity to humbled the narcissistic blond

"You want the dragon ball Blondie? Then come get it" Krillin said getting into his fighting stance. He saw General Blue make a movement with his eyes then walk towards him with a smirk on his face

Krillin stared at him with confusion as he sent a slow punch towards him that Krillin easily dodged causing General Blue to gasp in surprise

"What!? You shouldn't be able to move! You should be stuck in my paralysis" General Blue exclaimed

"Oh so that's what that eye move was? Please your paralysis is nothing compared to my friend Chiaotzu's. I didn't even feel it" Krillin said laughing

General Blue began backing away from Krillin in fear as he realized he was drastically outclassed. Krillin looked towards Yamcha who was laughing at the fear in General Blue's eyes

"So can we keep the Dragon Ball or do you still want to try to take it from us?" Yamcha asked struggling to contain his laughter

General Blue looked at Yamcha in fear and frustration before turning and running away to contact the commander. He needed serious back up if he was going to continue trying to collect the dragon balls

"Should we let him just run away like that Krillin? This guy is giving me all types of bad vibes and I think he'll just be trouble later" Yamcha asked while thinking about charging up an energy beam in his hand. Krillin shook his head condescendingly at the older male

"He's no threat. Just let him leave, lets get out of here so we can catch up with the others" Krillin said

And with that the two friends took off towards the ki of Vegeta, Bulma, Launch and Raditz. Unbeknownst to them General Blue had managed to find his communicator

"Hello Commander, we have a problem…"

With Turles and Tarble

Turles and Tarble had been dropped off in the arctic and had successfully infiltrated Muscle Tower. On the way they met this girl named Suno who's mom fed them and told them about the famed Muscle Tower and how her father and the men in the village hasn't come back. During the time there Tarble had been getting closer to Suno. They became so close that Turles and Suno's mom had constantly teased the two whenever they were seen together

When men attacked the house Tarble had beaten them so viciously and warned them to stay away from Suno. It was the most vicious Turles had ever seen Tarble and Turles was still teasing Tarble about it on their walk to Muscle Tower which made the younger prince fire more than a few energy blasts at his friend

Now that they were in Muscle Tower, however, Tarble was releasing all his pent up frustration on the obstacles in front of them. He completely obliterated Buyon and Major Metallitron when they tried to stop the Saiyans from advancing

Turles took over when the Murasaki brothers were playing their little game. After threatening to blow up the entire tower they all came out of hiding with fear in their eyes. With no other options the oldest Murasaki brother released Android 8 to fight the two Saiyans before retreating to General White's control room

Currently they were in a stand off with the saiyans confused at Android 8's lack of a power level. They couldn't tell what they were up against and that worried them

"I do not wish to fight you" Android 8 said surprising the two Saiyans

"My scanners show that you two far surpass me in power so any altercation would lead in my swift destruction. A process that I would like to avoid at all costs so lets find a peaceful way to settle this" Android 8 continued

Turles and Tarble looked at each other starting a silent conversation with each other. After debating for a few moments they nodded finally reaching a decision

"Okay Android, we'll allow you to live a peaceful life if you agree to take us to the dragon ball that you have somewhere in this tower" Turles said

Android 8 nodded and led them to the generals control room. Once they opened the door they saw General White on his communicator seemingly calling for back up. While the thought of fighting more worthy opponents intrigued the saiyans they both knew that they didn't have the time for that seeing that Goku and Vegeta were very eager to revive their adoptive grandfather. Turles fired a beam at the communication device blowing it up causing General White and Murasaki to jump in fear. Noticing Android 8 with the intruders General White became livid

"#8 what are you doing helping them? You are a creation of the Red Ribbon Army and should be fighting to defend us from intruders, not lead them to our control room! Destroy them now before they take the Dragon Ball" General White commanded

Turles and Tarble turned to Android 8 with twin looks of amusement on their faces. As if daring him to try something. Android 8 looked back at the Saiyans with a kind smile that reassured the Saiyans

"General. I know that I was programmed to follow the directives of the Red Ribbon Army, but I was also built with a power scanner that allows me to see the difference in people's power. These two boys are far superior to me as I currently am. Also, I've never had the desire to fight anyone so I see no need to endanger my life when my defeat is inevitable. I advise that you concede as well and give them the dragon ball so that they can leave"Android 8 advised

"You miserable piece of junk! I told Gero that you were too soft and that you needed more upgrades. He's too busy working on his precious creations to improve the one's already made. I knew that you were the weakest out of the most recent bunch he's created, but you were always the most obedient and easy to control. I should've took my chances with the other more powerful models. You're a disappointment" General White seethed

Turles and Tarble looked back and forth between the Android and General in genuine interest for a few moments before resuming their objective

"Hey just give us the dragon ball and we'll let you live. We're not in the mood to kill you idiots and we're not going to go destroy your army, we just want our wish, so don't make it hard on yourselves" Turles said

"Oh and we also want you to release all the villagers that you have trapped here. A good friend of mine's father is here and I would appreciate it if they were set free. Know that this isn't a request, this is an order and if you refuse to obey there will be severe consequences" Tarble said letting his energy flare around him

Everyone but Turles looked at the young prince in fear. Seeing no other option General White does as he was instructed and released the prisoners from the village allowing them to return to their families after thanking the two young saiyans. He also gave Turles the dragon ball grudgingly

Turles thanked him sarcastically before he and Tarble turned to walk away but after they turned General White pulled out a gun and fired it at Turles while the Saiyan was unaware. Seeing this Android 8 phased in front of the bullet and grabbed it before it could make contact with the young saiyan

"What are you doing #8!? I almost had him. This is insubordination! You worthless metal piece of crap. When headquarters hears about this you'll be reprogrammed. You might even get scraped for parts" General White yelled

After realizing that Android 8 just caught the bullet aimed for him, Turles felt a newfound admiration for the android. The bullet wouldn't have even tickled him, but the Android didn't know that. It was the thought that counted to Turles

"Alright Eighter you've earned my trust. So I'll handle this guy for you. I advise you to leave the area" Turles said

Hearing this the eldest Murasaki brother zoomed off to gather his brothers and get them far away from muscle tower. They'd never work for the Red Ribbon Army again

Tarble just sighed and grabbed Android 8, who was still confused at the name 'Eighter', and flew out the window a few meters away from muscle tower

General White looked at Turles with a fearful expression

"I thought you said you wasn't going to kill me" General White said backing up into the wall

Turles shrugged before smirking at him

"I wasn't but things change. You tried to kill me first idiot" Turles replied

"You'll never have all the dragon balls. Gero will activate the other androids and they're far superior to #8. They'll destroy you" General White threatened while laughing maniacally

Turles had to admit that he was interested. He couldn't sense the power level of Eighter, but Eighter had power that far surpassed a normal human's power if he was able to move quickly enough to catch bullets . He was curious, but not curious enough to let the General live

"Eh maybe, but you won't be around to see them try" Turles said with a sinister smirk before incinerating General White along with the rest of Muscle Tower

Android 8 watched the scene in surprise. He knew the saiyan boys were stronger than him, but he didn't know the true extent of their power. He was impressed, but terrified; he hadn't seen power like this displayed since the last time the other androids were released

The Saiyans returned to Suno's house to see if her father made it back safely and was happy to see that Suno and her mom were currently enjoying their reunion with Suno's father. When the group noticed the boys at the door Suno ran to Tarble with tears in her eyes' giving him a big hug

Tarble blushed a bright red earning a smirk from Turles and a kind smile from Suno's parents. Android 8 just stared in confusion at the physical contact. It was so foreign to him, but he found that he thought the exchange was amusing

"Thank you, thank you, thank you for returning my father to me" Suno said with tears streaming her face

"Uh it was no problem Suno. It was our pleasure" Tarble said rubbing his hand behind his head laughing nervously. 'He's been hanging around Kakarot too much' Turles thought watching the action. Deciding he wanted to ruin the moment he interjected

"Yeah it was OUR pleasure. You know Suno I was there too and I was the one who destroyed Muscle Tower maybe I should get a hug too" Turles said teasingly earning a energy blast from Tarble that sent him flying outside into the snow

Suno and her mom laughed at the antics of the two saiyans. Turles walked into their house a few moments later to introduce Android 8 to Suno and her family

"Hey guys this is Eighter. He helped us out in Muscle Tower" Turles said introducing the Android

After a few more minutes of talking and Suno's family saying that Eighter could stay with them. Turles and Tarble bid the family farewell, but before they could leave Suno made Tarble promise that he would come back and visit them

After this the two saiyans took off into the air towards the ki of Vegeta and Raditz with Turles teasing Tarble almost the whole time

With Goku and Piccolo

Piccolo and Goku were currently following a pterodactyl that had eaten the bird carrying the ball. Goku had been growing impatient as they followed the bird, but he didn't want ruin Piccolo's first time flying in the open sky

"How's your first time flying outside the chamber?" Goku asked his friend still facing forward towards the large bird

"It's definitely different. I feel so light and free, I can definitely understand the appeal of flying slow to enjoy the sights. The Earth really is a beautiful place" Piccolo said surveying the area around them

Goku smiled at his friend before sensing danger. He saw a spear lodge itself in the birds chest before it plummeted to the ground. Thinking fast Goku and Piccolo dived after the bird to see where it landed and Goku was surprised to see the Ox King there slinging the huge bird over his shoulder

"Ox King? What are you doing here?" Goku asked once he and Piccolo landed

"Goku its nice to see you again. I'm just collecting food for the celebration today. Who's the kid with you?" Ox King replied

"Oh he's Piccolo he's our newest recruit and he's also a Namekian so Saiyans aren't the only aliens on the planet" Goku explained

"Piccolo? As in King Piccolo? Master Roshi told me and Gohan stories about him and his ruthless dominion of the planet. I never imagined that he'd be just a kid" Ox King said looking at Piccolo in amazement

"He's actually his reincarnation, eh it's a long story and Vegeta is better suited to explain it to you. In the mean time there's a dragon ball inside that bird's stomach please inform your chefs to get out so that we can make our wish faster" Goku said

"Of course Goku, so what are you going to wish for this time?" Ox King said curiously

Goku froze for a moment, something that both Piccolo and the Ox King noticed

"Grandpa Gohan was killed by Mercenary Tao. He won the fight, but he showed Tao mercy and Tao killed him once his back was turned. We are wishing him back to life" Goku said concealing his emotions

Ox King looked down sadly at the news that his oldest friend was killed. He looked at Goku with a look that offered sympathy. The Saiyan didn't care for the look, but the sentiment was appreciated

"I'm going to go gut and cook this bird, you're welcome to join us for the celebration feast" Ox King offered

Goku's expression brightened considerably at the mention of food. He eagerly accepted the offer of food and the Ox King laughed at his enthusiasm

"Okay well I'm going back to the village, you're welcome to come back with me to get the dragon ball from the kitchen the moment we gut it, but I'd like you to find Chi Chi too. She went out to collect apples from the old tree" Ox King said

"Piccolo can go back with you, I'll go get Chi Chi. I haven't seen her in a while" Goku said before searching for Chi Chi's energy and flying off leaving Ox King and Piccolo together to walk back towards the village

Goku had found Chi Chi still by the apple tree the Ox King mentioned. He had begun walking towards her, but she had yet to notice. She had still been collecting apples when he decided to make his presence known

"Hey" Goku said causing Chi Chi to jump and drop her apples. She turned around with wide eyes when she realized who the person was that snuck up on her

"Goku!? I've missed you" Chi Chi yelled running to him giving him a hug. Goku smiled while rubbing his hand on the back of his head

"I've missed you too Chi Chi. Sorry it took so long to visit, but I'm here now" Goku said

Chi Chi smiled at him as the two kids sat in the apple tree and talked to each other about anything and everything

While Chi Chi was talking about her mom, Goku couldn't help but feel sad for the girl. She barely got to know her before she passed. Goku also told Chi Chi about Gohan's passing and how hard it is for him to deal with that. Chi Chi comforted him and the two just sat together in a comfortable silence with Goku's tailed wrapped around Chi Chi's waist

They stayed like that for some time before Goku felt a sharp increase in Piccolo's power. He grabbed the startled Chi Chi and flew to the village explaining that something was going on

When the two got to the village they saw Piccolo, Ox King, and the villagers looking at a destroyed part of the village. Ox King and Piccolo seemed to be discussing something with a giant smile on the Ox King's face and a small smile on Piccolo's

"What happened here?" Chi Chi shouted causing everyone to look at her in surprise

"Oh nothing dear, everything's fine now thanks to our friend here" Ox King said placing his giant hand on Piccolo's shoulder

"I felt a rapid increase in your power a minute ago. Mind explaining what that was all about Piccolo?" Goku said surveying the destroyed land

"Sure no problem" Piccolo said recalling what happened

Piccolo's Flashback

'I can't believe Goku just left me alone with this giant man' Piccolo thought as he walked with the Ox King to his village

Once they arrived they were greeted by many people. Piccolo was naturally a little reserved as he hadn't ever been around that many humans before, and the Ox King could tell. He introduced him to the entire village and after a few odd looks because of his green skin, he was accepted by the group of people with open arms

After receiving the dragon ball from the chef Piccolo was going to go find Goku so that they could leave, but the Ox King noticed him beginning to leave and stopped him

"Where are you heading to Piccolo? You just got here" the Ox King asked curiously

"Oh I was just going to get Goku so we could go. We have what we came for so I see no reason to stay unnecessarily. I can sense his ki next to what I can assume is your daughter. Once we bring her back we'll be going" Piccolo said turning his head to look at the large man

"Oh so there's no rush. There's a celebration going on right now and if Goku and Chi Chi are together right now I don't think it'd be a good idea to interrupt them. Ever since Goku left the first time Chi Chi has been talking non stop about Goku and how they were going to get married one day. This is a reunion she's been waiting for and it'd be cruel to deny her this alone time with him" Ox King explains

"What is Married?" Piccolo asks confused

As Ox King explained the concept of Marriage and Love to Piccolo, the young Namekians eyes bulged out of his head. He suddenly understood the relationship dynamic between Vegeta and Bulma, and Raditz and Launch. Saiyans and Earthlings are very interesting creatures indeed

"Okay I'll stay here while they enjoy each other's company, but I don't eat food. Do you have any water?" Piccolo asked

"Of course" Ox King said leading him back into the place used for the festivities

Piccolo was actually enjoying himself during this time and he was learning how to have fun with other kids his age, but this all came to a halt as a booming voice was heard

"Ox King come out and surrender your dragon ball. If you refuse to comply with our demands we will open fire and destroy your village" A female voice said

Ox King frowned and stood up moving to head outside. Piccolo and a few of the adults followed him outside and there they were met with a young lady with violet hair and a bullhorn smiling at them. Behind her were at least 150 soldiers all with their guns aimed for the Ox King. There were also tanks there with their canons aimed towards him as well

"Who are you people?" The Ox King demanded

"I am Colonel Violet of the Red Ribbon Army. We have come for your dragon ball and nothing else. If you let us have it then you'll be fine, but if you refuse we'll have no choice, but to take it by force" she said pointing a gun towards them

The Ox King frowned at the methods that they would resort to and was about to voice his displeasure when he noticed Piccolo stepping forward towards Colonel Violet

"He can't give you the dragon ball because he doesn't have it. I do, and if you think you can take from me you're more than welcome to try. Just know that if you do make a move I'll assume you mean to kill me to get this" Piccolo said pulling out the dragon ball

He looked around at the soldiers before feeling a sting in his forehead. He looked in the direction of Colonel Violet in annoyance noticing that her gun is the one that had been fired

"Can't say I didn't warn you. I don't have the patience to play with you all individually so instead I'll make this quick" Piccolo said raising his energy

"EXPLOSIVE DEMON WAVE" Piccolo shouted firing a large energy beam that completely disintegrated the entire group of Red Ribbon Soldiers along with half of the village. Piccolo sweat dropped and turned to the Ox King with an apologetic look

"Sorry for destroying half of your village. I didn't mean to do that I just meant to destroy them" Piccolo explained frantically a little nervous that he would be mad

Instead of seeing a frowning face of the Ox King that he expected he was greeted by the beaming face of the Ox King

"I'm not mad at you. You neutralized the threat the buildings can always be rebuilt, but the lives you saved cannot be replaced" Piccolo gave a small smile at the giant man

That's when he noticed Goku arrive with a girl that he had assumed was Chi Chi

End Flashback

"Oh so that's what happened. Good job Piccolo, turning into a real goodie huh?" Goku said smirking at the young Namekian who ignored him causing Goku to laugh

"Alright Ox King and Chi Chi, its been fun to see and talk to you guys, but we have to get going to make sure Vegeta and the others don't wait too long for us to comeback" Goku said

Chi Chi made a face that immediately suggested that she wanted to go with them, but Goku's face quelled that argument. She knew that if she asked now he'd probably say no, so she didn't ask that instead she asked something else that's been on her mind

"When are you coming back?" Chi Chi asked with tears in her eyes. Goku smiled and hugged the young girl causing Ox King to smile at the scene and Piccolo to fly off muttering something about relationships confusing him

"Of course, I'll comeback to visit as soon as Gohan is revived Chi. I promise that I won't be gone too long this time" Goku promised while his tail lightly pet her head

"You better. You guys are gonna get married one day" Ox King said smiling and patting Goku's back

Goku looked at Ox King in confusion while Chi Chi buried her face deeper in Goku's chest to hide the deep red blush on her face

"Marriage? What's that? Is it some sort of food?" Goku asked confused

Ox King laughed as Chi Chi shouted

"Don't worry about that now just go back to Vegeta. I'll tell you when you get back" Chi Chi said

Goku nodded and took off quickly to catch up to Piccolo with the thought of Marriage on his mind

With Vegeta, Bulma, Raditz and Launch

Vegeta was pacing back and forth waiting impatiently for everyone to finish their dragon ball assignments so that they could raid the Red Ribbon Army base for the final 3 dragon balls, but Bulma and Launch said that it would be more beneficial to wait for the others to return. She said that it would be the fastest way to accomplish their goals. Vegeta thought that she was right at the time, but now he was agitated and wanting the dragon balls

Raditz had been meditating in the corner ever since they arrived outside the base. He knew that Vegeta was getting impatient, but Bulma's plan was the most effective way to accomplish their goals

They dropped the others off hours ago so he assumed that they had finished their tasks and were currently flying towards them now. They wouldn't be hard to find with Vegeta's energy flaring in irritation every 5 seconds

"Is his majesty still pacing around acting like a drama queen?" Launch asks as she sits down next to Raditz causing the long haired saiyan to smirk at the blond. He always did prefer her that way, but before he could respond to her question he felt an evil intent towards him, turning his head to lock eyes with the eldest Saiyan Prince

"Answer that carefully Raditz, or we'll have to use the dragon balls to revive you as well" Vegeta said smirking evilly at his best friend only to receive a swift smack in the back of the head courtesy of Bulma

"Would you stop acting like that? They should be here any minute. Calm down and have some patience, we'll get the 3 remaining dragon balls as soon as they arrive" Bulma said

"Don't you mean the fighters will go get it while you and Launch stay here because you're so terrified of the big and bad Red Ribbon Army?" Vegeta scoffed earning another smack in the back of the head

Suddenly the door opened revealing the rest of the fighters. They all sported their own dragon ball earning a pleased look from Vegeta and Raditz

"You guys finally showed up. Good now lets go get these final 3 dragon balls from the Red Ribbon base" Raditz said causing a look of shock to form on all of their faces

"Looks like we'll have a real fight on our hands because General White from the Red Ribbon Army threatened that we'd have to face Androids and the bad thing about them is we can't sense their energy so we don't know how strong they are. They might be perfect in testing out our new power, but they might also be very dangerous opponents" Turles said

The others recalled their multiple run ins with the Red Ribbon Army as well. After hearing their stories Vegeta knew that if he allowed them to stand then they will become a real problem in the future. Standing up he looked to his friends and spoke clearly

"Alright we leave now to take the dragon balls and to avoid future problems we'll destroy the Red Ribbon Army"

Everyone nodded and left the Capsule House leaving behind Bulma, Launch and their 4 dragon balls

Once they reached the gates, Vegeta stuck his hand out and blew down the gates with a small energy blast. The ten fighters looked as the smoke cleared to reveal 4 figures surrounded in a bright blue-green energy barrier

"We've been expecting you…"
