Chapter 73,the return of Cooler.
Two years ago, the legendary warrior, Cooler, was defeated by the King of Planet Bardock, Bardock. After two years of training and procuring a better army, Cooler had returned to take revenge on his old adversary.
Cooler's ship hovered high above the planet of Bardock, his elite squad of fighters and powerful army in tow. The citizens of Bardock took notice of the incoming ship and quickly prepared themselves for battle.
Raditz and Nappa, the loyal generals of the Saiyan King, sprung into action. They led an army to the front lines in an effort to avoid any incoming attack.
The King of Bardock, Bardock, proceeded to his personal ship and reached the hovering ship of Cooler. He was ready to face Cooler once again in a fight to the death.
'After two years of waiting and training, you have finally returned, Cooler,' said King Bardock. His entire body was filled with unwavering determination.
'Yes, King Bardock,' said Cooler. 'This is the end for you. I will be taking your kingdom and leave you homeless and soulless. I will not be defeated like last time. I have improved my form, my army is stronger, my squad is better trained, and I am smarter.'
'I do not fear you, Cooler,' said King Bardock. He flew towards Cooler and let out a loud battle cry. 'I may not be able to defeat you, but I will not surrender without a fight.'
The two warriors flew towards each other with great intensity, ready to fight for the kingdom of Bardock. Both warriors were determined to prove their strength and courage. Meanwhile, Raditz and Nappa led the army of Bardock to the forefront and defended the kingdom with their own grueling combat.
Chapter 74,war on planet Bardock.
The battle on planet Bardock was nothing like anyone had ever seen before. The bright saiyan sky, mixed with the deep smoke from the numerous battles below gave it a unique yet horrifying look.
The tyrant Cooler, the older brother of Frieza, had come to try and take the planet the old-fashioned way- by the force of arms. As their battle waged above the planet, a war began beneath their feet.
The Saiyan army was pitted against Cooler's forces. Even though they had been trained since childhood, the entire world was watching as the warriors fought ferociously, each hoping to gain the advantage.
The clash of steel on steel and the screams of pain and war cries filled the air as blood spilled everywhere. Among the fighting stood Prince Raditz,general Nappa, and sergeant Turles- all of whom had just unlocked their SSJ4 forms. And despite how powerful they seemed, they were finding it hard to keep up against the three best of Cooler's troops- Neiz, Dore, and Salza.
With each clash of ki and punch, the three of them advanced and pushed the Saiyan army further and further back. No matter how much the Saiyans tried to advance, Neiz, Dore, and Salza seemed to always be one step ahead.
As the battle raged on, Bardock intensified his fight with Cooler as he tapped into his SSJ2 form, yet he too was struggling against the armored tyrant. Despite the desperation he was facing, Bardock still managed to push back against the onslaught of blows, neither of them giving an inch to their opponent.
As the dust settled and the warriors of both sides stopped fighting, the dust cleared, and the world was able to catch its breath. The few remaining members of the Saiyan army and Cooler's forces were utterly exhausted, both having suffered heavily in the fight.
However, the fight between Bardock and Cooler still raged on. Their attacks became fiercer and their moves more powerful as the intensity of their battle reached its peak.
The Saiyan army held their breath and watched as the two forces clashed and sparks flew. Until, with a tremendous boom, the fight was over. The two were both grievously injured yet neither had fallen.
Chapter 75,the squad falls
The war between King Bardock and Cooler had raged for weeks. Bardock, the Saiyan King, had wanted to defend his people against the constant threat of invaders, so he formed an army of Saiyans from his own planet's best warriors. His son, Raditz, was the field commander and his best general, Nappa, led the ground troops. His strongest Sergeant, Turles, headed the advanced squad.
Cooler's army consisted of Neiz, Salza, and Dore and were formidable opponents with superior numbers and weaponry. Bardock had chosen planet Bardock as the battlefield where their confrontation was to take place.
The battleground was an atmosphere of confusion, chaos and fumes, with both sides giving everything they had. Raditz shouted orders to his troops as they navigated the barren landscape, dodging bullets and debris whilst attempting to take out their enemies. Nappa and Turles followed orders, driving the troops forward and chasing the allusive Cooler Squad.
Neiz and Salza saw what was unfolding in front of them, the fate of their team dangling by a thread. The Saiyans were winning and if they couldn't escape soon, they'd become prisoners of war. Dore, the youngest of the three, had a lot to prove and despite the odds, he stood his ground and fought bravely, determined not to disappoint his master.
The Saiyans were getting closer and it soon became clear that the Cooler Squad would have to retreat if they wanted to survive. But Dore, although terrified inside, would not give up, desperately trying to protect his friends.
Suddenly, a loud explosion filled the air followed by a dazzling display of rocket fire from the sky. The battlefield erupted into chaos and parts of planet Bardock's surface began to disintegrate. Raditz quickly ordered a retreat and it became apparent that Cooler had sent reinforcements.
Dore, knowing that this was his chance, frantically yelled at Neiz and Salza to run, as he attempted to cover their escape with a focused barrage of energy shots.
Raditz, understanding the situation, quickly yelled 'Let them go, it's not worth sacrificing more of our men to fight a losing battle'. Nappa acknowledged the order and ordered his team to stand back.
The Cooler Squad took the opportunity and escaped into one of their starships, watching in disbelief as their miraculous escape unfolded in front of them.
Chapter 76,the battle rages on
Bardock and Cooler had been at war with each other for years. They were determined to take control of each other's territory and resources.
A battle between them had been raging since the beginning of their war. Today, the two were on Cooler's spaceship, and Bardock had the advantage. He was able to sense and move at incredible speeds, while Cooler was not.
Bardock was attacking Cooler with his powerful punches and kicks. He was pushing Cooler back, trying to weaken him. With every attack, Bardock's power seemed to grow a little more.
The fighting went on for what seemed like an eternity, until Bardock decided it was time to end it. He unleashed an incredible Super Saiyan 5 transformation, and the power released was enough to take down Cooler. The combination of their attacks had weakened Cooler to the point that he could no longer fight. Bardock proceeded to pummel Cooler, sending him flying across the ship.
With one last blow, Bardock managed to knock Cooler out of the ship. He watched as Cooler's body fell through space, until it eventually exploded.
He thought he had won. He had defeated Cooler, and announced to Cooler's army that their leader was dead. Now the Saiyans owned Cooler's territory, planets, resources and army.
But something strange happened. As the explosion ended, we could see the remains of Cooler's body drifting in space. It was disfigured and mutilated, with only half the body intact and his insides completely exposed.
Then we saw a strange, robotic figure approach Cooler's body. It cautiously picked up the pieces of Cooler's body, and then proceeded to fly away with it. It was obvious that whoever this figure was, it had a plan for Cooler's body.
Bardock never realized that Cooler had somehow survived the explosion. He assumed that he had been killed in the explosion, and was satisfied with the thought. In his mind, the war was finally over.
But it turns out that he was wrong.
Chapter 77,the dragon balls
King Bardock was training in his chambers as usual when he was suddenly interrupted by an excited servant. 'My lord, my lord! There is a rumor going around that you can become immortal if you have the dragon balls of planet Namek!'
The King was in shock. If this was true, he would have the power to rule the universe forever. After some thought, he spoke. 'What are dragon balls?'
The servant was surprised by this question and scrambled to give an explanation. 'The dragon balls are magical artifacts scattered around the planet Namek. It is said that if one gathers all of the 7 balls, a powerful dragon will appear and grant one wish. Depending on what you wish for, you could become immortal!'
The King was fascinated and asked the servant to bring him his best scientists to research more about the dragon balls. After a few days, the scientists were able to gather some information. They informed the King that in order to gather all of the balls he would need to maintain a strong force and that he must build an alliance with some of the other Saiyan planets for safety. The King looked pleased, this was his way to immortality, and nothing was going to get in his way.
He quickly sent out messages throughout the kingdom and began summoning his most trusted advisors to start planning the voyage. All of his advisors, soldiers and subservient reminded Bardock that he must act cautiously and gather as much information as he could in order to succeed in his mission.
Chapter 78,off to namek
It had been three long and bleak years since the Z Fighters said good-bye to the beloved Goku and Gohan, taken away from them in an instant by Raditz. Without their leader, the Z Fighters had to adjust to life without the two of them, struggling no doubt; yet they used the sadness of their loss to inspire strength and train hard, hoping that one day they will get to see their beloved friends again.
Finally, after years of hard work and dedication, Bulma had finally finished her spaceship to go to planet Namek. Without wasting any more time, the Z Fighters gathered up their provision and began to prepare.
The first to go was Chichi, the wife of Goku and mother of Gohan. She looked different, her face filled with a new strength she had built up over the past years. "I'm coming for you Gohan," she said as she hugged her son's duffle bag tight against her chest.
Bulma, Chichi and Krillin soon said their good-byes to the rest and set off to the spaceship.
Bulma felt a tear come to her eye as she prepared the craft. "Do you think we can do this?", she asked quietly to herself.
"We have to", replied Chichi with a hint of determination in her voice. "We mustn't let them down, not this time."
Krillin scoffed quietly. "Those two were always too stubborn for their own good. I'm sure they'll be just fine."
The trio all shared a laugh, and no more words were needed.
The journey begun, they loaded heavy hearts knowing that they were soaring to bring back the joy and peace that had been missing from the Z Fighters.
Chapter 79,the long journey
Bulma,chichi and Krillin are travelling to namek to get the seven dragon balls to revive Goku and Gohan who they think are dead,and Piccolo who is dead and must be revived too bring back earth's dragon balls,and while they're travelling they encounter a monster and we see how strong everyone has become when everone does their part iBulma, Chichi and Krillin were traveling to Namek in pursuit of the seven Dragon Balls needed to revive Goku and Gohan, who they all believed to be dead, as well as Piccolo, who was confirmed dead and thus needed to be revived in order to bring back the Dragon Balls of Earth. Along the way, they encountered a powerful monster as they traveled across unfamiliar terrain.
Krillin quickly tested out his skills in battle, using his signature moves such as the Destructo Disc and Kamehameha Wave to engage in combat against the beast. However, he quickly found himself in over his head and had to resort to desperate measures.
Bulma, who historically had shown no interest in battle and relied instead on her superior intellect and science, had become a force to be reckoned with. She had been training for months prior, and had come a long way since merely learning how to fire a Kamehameha Wave. Now she took on the role of the strategist—observing the creature's movements and helping coordinate the tactics of her allies.
Chichi, who had previously been content with merely supporting the rest of her team as they fought, had been flinging her trademark energy blasts at the creature, doing her best to keep it occupied while Krillin and Bulma figured out their next steps.
"Krillin, I've got an idea!" yelled Bulma as she frantically directed her allies toward the creature's weak spots, "let's combine all of our attacks and aim for the eye!"
Krillin nodded his agreement and the trio focused their attention on the creature's bulbous blue eye. Chichi and Krillin began to focus their powers, a duo formation of Ki blasts trained on the fiend's peepers.
Meanwhile, Bulma fired up her newest invention, a miniaturized Kamehameha Wave blaster. As one, the three of them unleashed a powerful blast of energy at the eye of the monster. The powerful waves of energy washed over the creature like a tidal wave.
The creature shrieked in agony as it was blasted back by the trio's attacks. Its movements became increasingly sluggish, and soon it lay still on the ground. Its death throes were just beginning to fade away when Chichi spoke up: "we did it!"
The three heroes stood together, triumphant, strengthened not just by their successes in battle, but by their growing respect and mutual admiration. After a moment of celebration they proceeded onward, hopeful and confident, in search of Namek and the beloved ones that had been left behind
Chapter 80,arrival on namek
Bulma, Chichi, and Krillin finally stumbled onto the planet Namek after a long journey filled with lots of surprise bumps and turns of events. Skidding to a halt with their space-ship, the trio surveyed their surroundings cautiously.
"Let's head out," Krillin stated, his normally small frame now tense with anticipation. They'd come to the planet with one goal alone: to collect the Dragon Balls and use their wish to revive both Goku and Gohan who, against all odds, were believed to have perished at the hands of Raditz.
In the distance, a familiar voice echoed across the planet's serene landscape.
"Goku? Gohan?" Chichi said, startled by the apparition.
But before they were allowed the chance to identify the speaker, a loud popping sound pulsated through the atmosphere and a disorientated Goku and Gohan appeared before their stunned eyes.
Bulma gasped, "Goku! Gohan!"
"It can't be," Krillin whispered shakily. It'd been over a year since their presumed deaths.
And thus, the reunion impacted their mission. Goku and Gohan had been training with King Kai on how to use teleportation back on King Kai's Planet. As they explained, King Kai wanted them to use their newfound skill to teleport to Namek and find the Dragon Balls, not to wish for their own resurrection, but to wish for King Kai to become taller.
Shocked and in awe of their miraculous survival, the party got to work in their search for the Dragon Balls. But, their mission faced an unexpected twist when Nappa, Gine, and Turles, the powerful Saiyans, arrived at Namek with their own mission in mind; To locate the Dragon Balls so that they can grant King Bardock immortality.
"What a mess we have on our hands now," Krillin sighed.
Chapter 81,The fearsome Ginyu force
It was unlike anything they had ever seen before. Bulma, Chichi, and Krillin had traveled to the planet Namek to seek out the mighty Dragon Balls. However, they had never expected to find another group already searching for them: the Ginyu Force.
The Ginyu Force, who were Bardock's allies, had traveled in their ship to aide the same saiyans, Nappa and Raditz, who Bulma, Chichi, and Krillin were fleeing from. Now, here they were on the same planet, hot on the trail of the treasured Dragon Balls.
Bulma was aghast. They had thought they could make a silent journey to search for the Dragon Balls. Now, not only were they still in danger of being chased by the Saiyans, but they were also being tracked by the Ginyu Force.
'What do we do now?' cried Chichi frantically.
'We should hide,' said Krillin. 'If they can't find us, they can't get their hands on the Dragon Balls.'
Bulma fumbled around in her pockets before pulling out a peculiarly shaped object. 'Don't worry,' she said. 'This may just save us. It's my Dragon Radar. With it, we can locate the Dragon Balls before either group knows what hit them.'
With renewed hope, the trio set off. It wasn't long before the Dragon Radar began beeping, signalling that the first Dragon Ball was close. Quickly, they began searching for its hiding spot.
Suddenly, a loud scream interrupted their investigation. As the group quickly looked towards the direction of the noise, they saw the Saiyans attacking a village of Namekians. With no remorse, they slaughtered the poor Namekians, leaving behind nothing but destruction. The only thing they haven't taken was a Dragon Ball that had been hidden among the ruined devastation.
Seeing this horrid sight, Bulma, Chichi, and Krillin were filled with rage and terror. Just then, the Ginyu Force descended from the sky to join the Saiyans in their search for the Dragon Balls.
Fearfully, Bulma and her friends prepared to run. However, before they could make their escape, a voice from behind them shouted, 'Well isn't this interesting. Look who we have here: a group of humans searching for killer wish orbs.'
It was the leader of the Ginyu Force himself, Captain Ginyu. With a sinister smirk on his face, he approached the trio and stood menacingly in front of them.
'Now,' he said, his voice dripping with danger. 'If you cooperate with us, this whole situation can be settled without any casualties. So, what do you say? Will you help us in finding the Dragon balls
Chapter 82,second dragon ball recieved
The planet Namek was both calm and eerie. Bulma and Chichi, of the Earth, had found themselves drawn here in hopes of acquiring the Dragon Balls. Krillin had only joined them on the journey the day before, and the three were soon followed by their nemesis, the Saiyan Gine. Bulma, Chichi, and Krillin were close to collecting their second of the seven balls, when the Saiyans made their presence known.
Nail, the Namekian guard, was the only thing standing in their way. Gine was significantly more intimidating than her husband, and with one powerful kick she sent Nail tumbling to the ground. He lay motionless, his limbs twisted in a grotesque fashion. In a blind fit of rage, the Queen of Saiyans had claimed one of the Dragon Balls for the pair.
Raditz had no intentions of being left in the dust, and during the Saiyans' initial encounter with the Namekians he made his move to the sea. As luck would have it, he found the third Dragon Ball right away, and with three in tow, the Saiyans' goal was in sight.
Goku and his son Gohan, whom surprisingly to everyone had come along to Namek, were embroiled in a battle of their own. Nappa had approached the pair with empty threats and was locked in combat with the Super Saiyan. His Kaioken X10 technique proved to be more than a match for the Saiyan. They had scurried away in defeat, Dragon Ball in-hand.
Each group now had their own goals with the set of magical orbs. For the Saiyans, it was fulfilling the foolish endeavor of their king Bardock. For the Namekians, it was the only way to keep their world from utter destruction.
Chapter 83,namekian masoccur
Raditz, Nappa, and Queen Gine had spent the last few weeks searching for the famous Dragon Balls. Going around from village to village, they questioned everyone in the area, but had no luck. Still, the three of them were nowhere near giving up. With the stakes this high, and the reward so grand, they had to keep searching.
Meanwhile, Bulma and Chichi, along with Krillin, had also begun their search for the Dragon Balls. However, their journey quickly went south. As they walked about, hoping to find clues as to the whereabouts of the magical orbs, they encountered Commander Pace.
Standing in their way, Commander Pace couldn't help but sneer at the three humans before her. "Are you here for the Dragon Balls, you filthy humans?" She asked, her smirk growing. Knowing the power these Dragon Balls held, they had no choice but to affirm the Commander.
"Well I can't let you get them. You race of scum!" She shouted, as she charged towards Chichi and Bulma.
The two female fighters were forced into combat, while Krillin was easily knocked out with one hit from Commander Pace. With the dragon Ball hunter down, the Commander could now focus on Chichi and Bulma.
The two brave ladies fought off the commander with all their strength, resorting to every tactic and move they had in their arsenal. Commander Pace was determined to kill them and take the Dragon Balls for herself. She even utilized her power boost x20 technique, much to their dismay.
Despite her gargantuan power levels, the two human women's wits, strength, and courage overpowered the commander. With one final move, Commander Pace was defeated and left whimpering on the ground.
"Please, spare my life" she begged, tugging at the edges of Chichi and Bulma's clothes "..I can be useful to you. I was misguided. I want to change."
Surprised by the commander's request, Chichi and Bulma understood she was sincere in her wishes. With a nod of agreement, they left her and continued on their journey in search of the Dragon Balls, once Krillin gained consciousness.
From then on, Commander Pace accompanied Chichi, Bulma, and Krillin in their search for the Dragon Balls. During their travels, she told them her story and how she ended up in such a position. Despite her initial intentions, after realizing the power of the Dragon Balls, she changed for the better and wanted to
use the power granted by them for good.
Chapter 84,dragon ball found
Goku and his 6 year old son, Gohan, arrived in the wondrous planet Namek. For this specific mission, they were sent out with a special purpose, to find the seven magical Dragon Balls and wish King Kai to be taller. They had received this very imperative mission from King Kai himself, and were following his directions to complete it as soon as possible.
They were actually here to stay for a while and find the Dragon Balls. After some time of adventure and scoping out the planet, they had already managed to locate the first Dragon Ball, a remarkable feat for their already impressive resume.
After such an accomplishment, they were naturally excited and feeling optimistic about their chances of retrieving the other Dragon Balls as well. When it was time to find the second Dragon Ball, they found themselves in the presence of various Namekians. At first, the Namekians were a bit suspicious towards them, alien visitors who had come to their planet with their specific mission in mind.
But with some kind words, a bit of convincing and some explanation, they managed to gain some of their trust and eventually even their support. They had no way of knowing it at the time, but it wasn't the Namekians who were to help them out on their quest, not only then, but in the near future as well.
Goku and Gohan had no way of expecting it, but they were being aided by some of the people they had once met in the saiyan. There, they met a male Saiyan rebel, as well as a female Saiyan pacifist, named Leek. The male Saiyan was the one to offer the services of their rebel group, a group opposing the dangerous and oppressive empire the Saiyan nobles had set up in the area.
Leek, on the other hand, was the one to accompany them on this specific mission, offering her kind words of wisdom and aid whenever needed. She had known of the magical Dragon Balls and how their power could do much good to help many people, something the Namekian elders had mentioned to her.
The four of them soon located the second Dragon Ball. The team was feeling quite proud of their success and excited for the next stage in their mission to help King Kai. With the aid of each of the members of this group, they had already accomplished a significant part of their journey.
Chapter 85,Five dragon balls.
Gine, Nappa, Raditz and some other warriors had been on Namek for a while, their goal was to collect the dragon balls, and they had already killed many Namekians to get their hands on the powerful objects. They had managed to collect three of the dragon balls, but Commander Pace who thought to be working with Chichi, Bulma and Krillin who had two dragon balls, betrayed them at the last moment.
The time had come for her to reveal her true form, a Super Saiyan 4, she punched Chichi and Bulma with a powerful flurry of punches. Krillin tried to intervene but Commander Pace quickly slammed an energy blast into Krillin's chest, it sent him flying backwards and left him in a pool of pain on the commander was quick to take the dragon balls while Chichi and Bulma lay unconscious and she quickly transported them to the saiyan ship. There, she strapped them to a cold wall of the ship's prison basement, leaving them completely beaten and helpless.
Krillin, with an injury on his chest, was left standing in the middle of Namek, with all of the dragon balls taken away from them. He was all alone, having no idea what he was going to do.
Meanwhile, up on the ship, the Saiyans were rejoicing over their achievement and the fact that they had managed to capture Chichi, Bulma and their three dragon balls. They talked amongst themselves, commenting on how they were sure to have powerful dragon balls which could grant them powerful wishes and how they were even more powerful, with the addition of powerful Commander saiyans now have 5 dragon balls while Goku and Gohan still have two.
