The Legend Of Kaiser
A.N: Sorry for the late update. I know you guys were looking forward to this chapter so I apologize. I have been really busy with college work and there are a lot of other things going on in Kaiser's derpy life. On a more important note. For those of you, who live in New Jersey, New York and all the other places that will get affected by the hurricane, please stay safe and I will remember you all in my prayers. For those of you who don't know, New Jersey and other surrounding areas will be hit by a hurricane. Please take a few moments out of your life to pray for them. A very close and important friend lives there and I care a lot for her but I can't do much from here except pray. Please pray for her and all those who will be affected by this. Anyways, here's the chapter.
Chapter 48
We are Saiyans
Vegeta was shaking with excitement. He couldn't believe how lucky he was. He would get to fight his rival in the end anyway since there was no one in his bracket who could take him on and win but the thing that got him this excited was that he was the one who would expose Mr. Satan for who he truly is.
The other Z Fighters were also somewhat content with their match ups. The girls were slightly disappointed because they weren't going to get far, especially 18. She was a realist and she knew that as powerful as she was, she couldn't hope to beat Goku. He was far too powerful for her. Videl and Brila would easily win their first matches but they couldn't hope to win their second one. Videl would eventually end up fighting Kaiser and Brila would end up fighting Vegeta.
The two shot each other a disappointed look and sighed. "Look at the bright side V." Brila sighed. "You won't have to fight an arrogant prince." She said getting a growl from Vegeta.
"I'll be fighting his son. It's just as bad." Videl replied.
"Why are you being so mean to me?" Kaiser said jokingly. "I thought we were tight!"
"Oh shut up! Don't you dare go easy on me and don't you dare lose your fight!" Videl threatened him.
"Hey hey!" He chuckled, trying to defend himself. "Do you have such little faith in me? I have no intention of losing my match and I won't go easy on you. Happy?"
"A lot! Since Vegeta is going to beat the crap out of my father." She said that last part quietly.
Gohan watched everything with a smile when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned around to see his mentor smiling down at him.
"It'll be fun to fight you again kid." He grunted.
"I am looking forward to it Piccolo." Gohan replied with a smile.
The announcer cleared his throat as an act to get everyone's attention. Once he was sure that everyone was paying attention, he went on with his announcement. "Quite the interesting matchups we have here. Ms. Videl Satan and Spopovitch!" He announced getting their attention. "Are you two ready to fight right now or do you wish to rest?"
"I am ready." Videl said instantly.
"Get on with it!" Spopovitch growled rudely.
"Very well! I shall call you out in a few minutes." The announcer said as he made his way to the ring to tell the crowd about the matchups.
Spopovitch shot Videl an evil look and stormed off to his partner. Videl ignored it and turned her attention to her three best friends who looked somewhat concerned.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
"I remember this guy from the last tournament we entered and his power level was pitifully low but now…" Kaiser trailed off as he examined Spopovitch and his partner more closely.
"I beat him up last time. The only difference is that he's lost all his hair and he's now on steroids." Videl argued.
"Be careful though. There's something off about him and his partner." Gohan said.
"I suggest you beat him up swiftly and knock him out of the ring." Brila suggested.
"Nope, no need for that." Kaiser said with a smile. "They're not a threat to any of us. They are quite weak actually. They seem to be getting power from some external source but that power isn't very strong so don't worry yourselves with it."
"What an interesting assessment." A voice spoke from behind the Z Fighters. "However I do think that you are underestimating those two."
They turned around to find out that the voice belonged to the short man with pale purple skin. He and his partner stopped in front of Goku. The short man, who they identified as Shin, held out his small hand to Goku. Said Saiyan looked at him quizzically but shook his hand nonetheless.
"It is an honor to meet you Goku. I have heard a lot about you and I can tell just by shaking your hand that you have a pure soul." He said with a suspicious smile. Kaiser picked it up and wondered what his true intentions were.
"Thank you." Goku said as he scratched the back of his head.
Kaiser was snapped back to reality when Shin made direct eye contact with him. "You are my first opponent and I look forward to fight you." He said as he put his hand forward.
"I'll be your first and last opponent." Kaiser said with a smirk as he shook his hand.
"Over confidence can be dangerous you know." Shin mused.
"Maybe but I can sense how powerful you really are after shaking your hand." Kaiser smirked. Shin raised an eyebrow, clearly impressed with the Saiyan's sensory ability.
"I see." Shin said silently. "Well, I look forward to our match." He said as he took his leave.
"So how powerful is he?" Brila asked. Kaiser told them before that he was no big deal but things seemed to be different now.
"Things will not be as easy as I thought they would be. He can mask his ki quite exceptionally." Kaiser explained but before he could go on, the announcer's voice reached their ears.
"Ladies and gentlemen! It is time to begin the first match of the adult division!" He said making the crowd cheer in response. "Our first fighter is no stranger to us! She's the daughter of the most decorated martial artist on the planet! Please help me welcome Ms. Videl Satan!"
The crowd erupted in cheers as Videl walked towards the ring, waving occasionally to the crowd. She entered the ring and waited for her opponent to join her.
"Next we have someone who has been quite consistent in the past tournaments but he never managed to win. He was also beaten by Videl in the last tournament. He is none other than Spopovitch!"
The crowd booed at him making him snarl in response. Videl studied him carefully while he made his way to the ring. He had a very angry expression and he was breathing angrily too.
"Just what happened to him?" Videl thought to herself as Spopovitch finally entered the ring.
"Contestants! Begin!" The announcer cheered and jumped out of the ring.
Videl decided to play it safe and took a defensive stance. Kaiser had specifically said not to worry about this fight but she wasn't going to take any risks. Spopovitch breathed angrily as saliva threatened to escape his mouth. Videl felt sick at the sight of his face but ignored those feelings when she saw Spopovitch sprint towards her.
If she hadn't been trained by her Saiyan friends, Spopovitch's speed would've meant trouble for her but that wasn't the case this time. She dodged his stampede at the last second nearly making him fall out of the ring. He turned around and snarled at her and sprinted towards her again with a right hook.
Videl remained calm and dodged his fist. Spopovitch snarled at her again and prepared for another right hook but before he could move another inch, Videl drove her fist into his gut making him wince in pain.
"M-Master…why…" He whimpered in pain. Videl didn't know what he was babbling about but it didn't concern her.
"Give up before I humiliate you." Videl said sternly.
He snarled at her again, yet weakly, and delivered another blow which had missed its target because Videl had dodged again. She decided to end it swiftly with a roundhouse kick that was powerful enough to send him flying out of the ring.
"Your winner by ring out! Videl Satan!" The announcer cheered. The crowd cheered with delight and Videl gave them all a wave and a smile and made her way back to her barracks.
Spopovitch slowly got up to his feet with the help of Yammu and they took off to some unknown location. Kaiser saw them take their leave and could still sense their presence on the island and he also, like many others, also picked up Spopovitch's words when he got winded by Videl. He was so lost in thought that he didn't even notice the pig tailed girl standing in front of him.
"Ahem." She said as she punched him hard enough for him to snap back to reality.
"Oh sorry. Congratulations on your victory." Kaiser said with a smile.
"It wasn't much of a victory. You better win yours." Videl said.
"Hn." He grunted. "I am not going to lose."
"Good luck love." Brila said as she planted her lips on his.
"I am definitely going to win now." Kaiser smirked.
"Good luck K." Gohan said as he put his hand on his best friend's shoulder. He gave him a nod and shot a glance towards Shin who was looking back at Kaiser. It was as if he knew that Kaiser was going to look at him.
"Ladies and Gentlemen! It is time for our second match. After seeing a very one sided first match, I am positive that you guys would love to see something more exciting!" He said. The crowd agreed by hooting. "Then help me welcome our two new contestants! One we know absolutely nothing about but something tells me that he's no pushover! Give it up for Shin!"
The crowd cheered half heartedly but Shin paid no heed to them. He gracefully walked into the ring and waited for his opponent to join him.
"Our next contestant is not much of a stranger to us. He's related to the famous Bulma Briefs. Not much is known about him except for the fact that he's not just rich, he's pretty powerful too! Please help me welcome Kaiser Briefs!" He cheered as Kaiser made his way to the ring. All the women there squealed as hearts formed in their eyes. Kaiser ignored them and kept up his stoic expression as he made his way to the ring.
He stopped at the opposite side of the ring and studied his opponent carefully. Shin was standing calmly at the other end with his hands tied behind his back. Unlike their previous meeting, he had a serious expression and his muscles were tense. Kaiser couldn't determine his opponent's feelings but it didn't matter to him.
"Contestants! Begin!" The announcer said as he stepped outside of the ring.
Kaiser unfolded his arms and jumped into his stance. Shin however, didn't change his posture. Kaiser grunted in annoyance. He did not like to be ignored. He was going to use extreme speed for this one.
He shot towards Shin with blinding speed and as expected, he didn't falter but Kaiser had counted on this. He used his Instant Transmission in mid flight and appeared behind him. Shin's eyes widened when he sensed Kaiser behind him. This was something he hadn't counted on. Kaiser smirked at Shin's bewildered face and went on to plant a right hook on Shin's face that sent him flying towards the other end of the ring. He quickly jumped to his feet and rubbed his bruised cheek in order to ease the pain.
"You've underestimated me." Kaiser grunted.
"It seems as if I have." Shin sighed. "I did not think that you were capable of such a thing."
"I am capable of much more."
"So am I." Shin said as he dashed towards Kaiser. Kaiser jumped into his stance and retaliated against the pale's man fury of punches and kicks. Kaiser found it quite difficult to block his attacks because he was very fast and very powerful.
Shin didn't stop pressing and Kaiser found it more difficult to dodge to counter him. After dodging Shin's right hook, Kaiser jumped back and shot a few ki blasts at Shin who blocked them effortlessly but Kaiser teleported behind him and proceeded with a roundhouse kick that Shin narrowly avoided and countered with a roundhouse kick of his own but Kaiser dodged it and planted an uppercut on Shin's chin that sent him flying upwards.
"FINAL FLASH!" He yelled as he shot a ki blast upwards at Shin. Shin gathered his composure at the last second and dodged it at the last second but little did he know that Kaiser was already above him. He hammered him back to the ground. Shin landed on all fours, chipping a few tiles in the process. Upon looking up, he saw himself at Kaiser's mercy as the Saiyan prepared in front of him with a right hook.
Shin let go of all his restraints and silently charged up to his maximum before Kaiser's fist reached his face. Shin caught his fist, much to Kaiser's surprise, and drove his fist into Kaiser's gut. His eyes widened with pain as he was sent tumbling back.
"So you were holding back. I should've known. You're the first one to mask your ki so flawlessly. Maybe I could learn a thing or two from you." Kaiser grunted as he wiped the blood off his cut lip.
"I am aware of your Super Saiyan transformation." He said shocking not only Kaiser but also every other Z Fighter in the barracks.
"And?" Kaiser said after a few moments.
"I want you to transform for me please."
"Only if you push me that far." Kaiser said with a smirk.
"Then I will do so." He said calmly as he dashed towards Kaiser with a left hook. Kaiser dodged with great difficulty and tried to counter it with a left hook with his own but Shin jumped over and behind him with a roundhouse kick.
Kaiser jumped over it and backhanded Shin who caught his hand and drove his knee into his back. Kaiser flinched and stumbled forward. Shin took this to his advantage and unleashed a fury of punches and kicks. Kaiser was too slow to regain his composure to block any of Shin's attacks.
Kibito watched everything with a smirk on his face. Everything was going as planned. Of course his master was stronger than the Saiyan. He wasn't too sure about his Super Saiyan transformation but he was sure that even that transformation wasn't going to pose any threat. He glanced over to Spopovitch and Yammu who would've attacked Kaiser when he would transform but thanks to the sound beating the girl gave him, they would wait till he would recover.
His eyes then shifted over to the Z Fighters who, to his surprise, were very calm. He thought that they would've been slightly worried but they showed no concern. Only the girl with the long black hair who had kissed him earlier winced whenever Kaiser got hurt. He didn't know what to make of this situation.
With a final right hook, Shin knocked Kaiser to the other end of the ring. Kaiser fell flat on his back and let out an annoyed growl as he jumped back.
"I hoped that things could've been simpler." He said as he cracked his knuckles. "First let me ask you something." He grunted.
Shin eased his body and gave the Saiyan a nod. "Is that all you have?" Kaiser said with a Vegeta like smirk. Shin raised an eyebrow at his words.
"Yes. This is my full power." Shin replied calmly.
"Then I am disappointed. You are weak." Kaiser said almost maliciously. Shin frowned in annoyance and was about to dash towards Kaiser when he felt Kaiser's energy spike immensely. His eyes widened when his energy reached levels he never thought were possible for a Saiyan.
Kaiser exploded into his Super Saiyan form, shell shocking the crowd in the process. Silence filled the island, they were all in disbelief. Then one voice broke the silence. A voice Kaiser remembered vaguely, the voice of the little girl he had met in the last tournament, Teacon.
"It's Bardock!" She cried.
Then another voice said, "Kaiser Vegeta Briefs is Bardock!" One by one the crowd chanted the same thing over and over again realizing the fact the fighters from the last tournament had all participated in this one.
"Alright Shin. Hit me with everything you've got." Kaiser said with an intimidating smirk.
"You're too arrogant for your own good." Shin spat.
"And you're underestimating me." Kaiser growled.
"As you wish." Shin said with annoyance. He charged up his fist and unleashed on the son of the prince. His right hook hit him square on his face but much to his horror. Kaiser's head didn't even move an inch. Shin stepped back in disbelief and before he could do or say anything else, he was backhanded across the ring.
"I-Impossible." Shin gasped.
"This is not even a tenth of my power."
"It can't be!"
"Well it was a nice warm up but I have to end this now." Kaiser said as he took a stance.
"W-Wait!" Shin said as he put his hands up.
"What?" Kaiser grunted.
"I am the Supreme Kai." Shin said hoping that Kaiser would calm down.
Piccolo's eyes widened when he heard that name. He knew who the Supreme Kai was and what his role was in the universe. He was too shocked to do or say anything because his mind kept asking him the same thing over and over again. "What on Earth is the Supreme Kai doing here?!"
The rest of the Z Fighters were oblivious to who he was and paid no attention to him. Kibito was shaking in his boots to see his master at the mercy of this Saiyan. He just couldn't believe it.
"What did you say? The crowd is making a lot of noise." Kaiser said with a provoking smirk.
"I am the Supreme Kai." Shin said again with a pleading tone.
"And I am Kaiser Vegeta Briefs." He said as he winded the Supreme Kai and kicked him out of the ring.
"Your winner by ring out! Kaiser Vegeta Briefs!" He cheered making everyone jump with joy. Kaiser jumped back to his base form and helped the Supreme Kai up to his feet.
"You're strong but you underestimate your opponents." Kaiser said with a smile as he offered a hand.
"I have indeed underestimated you." Shin said as he took his hand and lifted himself up.
The two walked back to the barracks but not before Kaiser gave the crowd a wave and his usual smile. Upon entering, Kaiser was jumped by Brila who locked her lips with his.
"Are you hurt?" She asked as she scanned his body for injuries.
"Nope." Kaiser smiled. "Hey Shin!" Kaiser called out to him. Shin turned his head to Kaiser and signaled him to go on. "Is purple your actual skin color or is it make up because I don't want any stains on my clothes." Kaiser said jokingly.
Shin suppressed a growl and turned his head from one end to the other.
"Well done K." Gohan said as he patted his back.
"It was nothing. He wasn't that strong." Kaiser chuckled.
"You'll get to fight me next." Videl smirked. "I know I am not going to win but I'll be sure to get a hit on you."
"We'll see but don't count on it though." Kaiser smiled as he turned his head to see whose turn it was now. "Who's fighting now?"
"Didn't you see Krillen and that fat guy go out just now?" Brila asked.
"Who cares about Krillen?" Kaiser said jokingly. "It should be a quick match though."
"It was. It's already finished." Gohan said as he saw Krillen walk back in. He turned towards his father and said, "It's your turn now dad."
"Right. Hey 18, no hard feelings right?" Goku said with his usual goofy grin.
"Whatever." 18 grunted as she walked out to the ring when she heard her name being called by the announcer.
"Hey Goku." Krillen said. "Go easy on her will ya?"
"Sure thing." Goku said as he walked out to the ring when his name was called.
Kaiser leaned back on the wall as he waited for the match to begin. Brila leaned on him as she watched the match with the love of her life. Kaiser smiled at her and put his arm around her. He turned his head to Gohan and Videl only to find them doing the same thing.
"BEGIN!" The announcer said as he jumped out of the ring.
"I hoped I would get to fight you some time." 18 said with a smirk. The thought of hurting Goku didn't bother her too much. It was out of the question to kill him not only because she knew that he was her ally, also because he was much stronger than her now.
"It's funny because I never got to fight you, 16 or 17." Goku chuckled.
18 just grunted and shot a ki blast at Goku who effortlessly slapped the ki blast into the sky. 18 shot towards the dead hero with a right hook which he also dodged. She growled at him and unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks which he kept dodging, much to her annoyance.
Goku had enough and decided to put pressure on her by countering swiftly giving her a small window to dodge or block but of course he was still holding back. Goku found an opening and drove his fist into her gut making her flinch slightly. She knew Goku would unleash hell on her now so she used a ki blast as a decoy to get away but Goku used the Instant Transmission to teleport behind her and he proceeded to tackle her to the ground.
18 bounced off the white tiles and dashed towards Goku with a low kick that Goku jumped over but as he turned around, he saw 18's fist very close to his face. He dodged at the last second and hammered his fists onto her back making her yell in anguish and sending her down on the tiles, cracking a few tiles in the process.
18 slowly got up to her feet only to find Goku standing right in front of her. She threw her fist at him which he caught easily. He decided to end the match by driving his fist into her gut with a little power that was strong enough to send her flying out of the ring.
"Your winner by ring out! Goku!" The announcer cheered. The crowd exploded in cheers having remembered Goku from the old days. Goku scratched the back of his head as he gave them his usual grin. He jumped out of the ring and held a hand out for 18. 18, reluctantly, took his hand and stood up.
"It was fun 18." Goku grinned.
"Fun for you." She grunted as the faintest smile appeared on her lips.
"Finally! The match we've all been waiting for." Kaiser said excitedly.
"Hell yeah!" Videl roared. She was really looking forward to this.
"I hope that oaf will remember this beating." Brila added.
"Seeing who'll provide the beating, I doubt that he would ever forget." Gohan chuckled.
"Of course. This human will pay for tarnishing the sacrifices we had to make that day." Vegeta growled.
Mr. Satan was on the verge of pissing himself. What was he supposed to do now? He couldn't make up any other excuses because then people would start to get suspicious. He didn't want to really fight his guy either because he wasn't the type to go easy on anyone. Maybe he could just retire after this tournament. That wouldn't make him look to bad and knowing these people, they would knock him out in just one hit like Cell did but… they wouldn't kill him…would they?
"Mr. Satan sir?" The security guard said jolting the afro man back to reality. "It's time for your match."
Mr. Satan swallowed needles and gave him a nod. He was still in his own barrack and it was about time that the announcer called him and this Vegeta out to the ring.
Maybe he was over thinking. Maybe this Vegeta and the Vegeta from the last tournament were different people. This one had black hair and the other had golden hair but those thoughts didn't fool him. The Vegeta who was going to be his opponent was the real deal.
Kaiser was envious of his father. He wanted to fight and secretly kill Mr. Satan. He had only ever admitted this to Brila that he felt immense rage towards that man. Not just because he stole the credit for killing Cell but spitting on his brother's and half brother's grave. It infuriated him to no extent but he managed to keep it to himself until Brila saw through his illusions. He hoped that his father would beat him senseless. He hoped his father would crush him. He hoped he—
He mentally slapped himself for the negative thoughts that were accumulating in his head. "Calm down. He's just a human. He's not worth it." He thought to himself only to find that his palm was bleeding. His nails had dug into his skin and it caused him to bleed a little. He looked around hoping that no one saw this but he found Brila looking at him with a concerned look. He gave her an apologetic smile and looked down in shame.
"It's okay. Just calm down." She said sweetly. Kaiser gave her nod and saw his father head to the ring once his name had been called out.
The crowd didn't dare to make a sound as Vegeta showed his face to the world. He smirked faintly with delight. "Damn right humans. Who's your daddy?!" He thought to himself as the smirk evolved into a more evident smirk.
"Videl…" Gohan said gaining her attention.
"Yes Gohan?"
"You are okay with this right?"
"Okay with what?"
"Your father fighting Vegeta."
"Of course! Why wouldn't I be?"
"Because no matter what he did to you, he's still your father."
"He deserves what's coming to him. He had done too many wrong things." She scowled as her father shakily made his way to the ring.
"I suppose you're right." Gohan sighed. He wasn't particularly fond of revenge because of his experience with Cell.
"Contestants! Begin!" The announcer said as he, yet again, jumped out of the ring.
"I-I can't f-fight this g-guy! He'll kill me!" The false hero thought to himself as he began sweating profusely. "I have to give up! I have to make some sort of excuse!"
With that idea, he turned his head to the announcer and opened his mouth to speak.
"Oh no you don't!" Vegeta growled as he drove his fist softly into Mr. Satan's gut completely winding him in the process. Said human stumbled back while clutching his stomach.
Vegeta smirked at him. Mr. Satan slowly looked up to see Vegeta's maniacal expression. He tried to run out of the ring but the prince cut him off and slapped him across the face which was powerful enough to send him flying out of the island but Vegeta dashed to the other side of the ring and caught him by his hair. If Mr. Satan momentum would've been higher, his hair would've been ripped out but Vegeta was being a little delicate with him – wanting to torture his prey a little longer.
Mr. Satan tried to speak. He tried to yell. He tried to say those two words that would save his life but he couldn't find the strength to say anything.
Kaiser smirked at this delightful sight and he was expecting everyone with a similar expression but what he found surprised him. They didn't look too happy. Why? Why weren't they pleased with this? What was their reason? Even Videl winced a little when Vegeta delivered a blow to the human.
What was wrong with them?! No, what was wrong with him? That was the right question. This wasn't him. He's not supposed to feel happy when someone else is suffering. He felt ashamed of this. He snarled silently to himself – realizing how much worst he is than Mr. Satan.
"Do you know how I felt when you took the credit for killing Cell?" Vegeta snarled at the human. "My sons died that day." He snarled again as he burst into his Super Saiyan.
"Super Saiyan?! Why is he doing that? He'll kill him!" Videl gasped. She had seen enough. As much as she hated him, she couldn't see him suffer anymore.
"That fool…" Gohan growled.
"He's letting his feelings get in the way." Brila added rather calmly. She knew Vegeta well enough to the point that he wouldn't kill anyone.
Goku kept on a serious expression. He could understand the prince's feelings but this wasn't the time or place to show those feelings.
The crowd gasped when Vegeta had transformed into a Super Saiyan but they gasped even louder after Vegeta delivered blow after blow to their champion.
"Do you know pain now, you wretch!" The prince spat.
Under the swollen eyes, Vegeta could see tears of pain stream down Mr. Satan's eyes. He couldn't care less. He wanted to beat him up even more. He grabbed his shirt and lifted him off the ground and drew his fist back, waiting for the right moment to unleash it.
"S-Someone please tell him to stop." Videl sobbed. She couldn't help it. She didn't want to see him get hurt anymore but no one answered her. They didn't know what to do.
Vegeta unleashed his fist and it was just inches away from his face when he heard someone's voice telling him to stop.
"DAD! THAT'S ENOUGH!" Kaiser yelled. Silence filled the crowd but Vegeta's eyes remained fixed on the human.
The son of the prince had seen enough too. This isn't how he was raised. He wasn't going to just stand there and let this go on.
Vegeta took a deep breath and jumped back to his base form. He retracted his arm and threw Mr. Satan out of the ring. The crowd was silent. To them, Mr. Satan was a God, a hero! And they just witnessed their hero fall and his opponent didn't even break a sweat.
But this opponent; was he a hero or a villain?
"Your winner by ring out and knockout. Vegeta Briefs." The announcer said half heartedly. The blonde announcer didn't like Mr. Satan but he wasn't quite fond of what he had just witnessed.
Vegeta couldn't care less about the silence that filled the crowd. He knew why his son had stopped him from fatally wounding that human and he was thankful for it. He was starting to lose control and he didn't like losing control.
Just before he entered the barracks, he heard something he would've never expected to hear.
"VEGETA!"
It was a chant. Someone chanted his name.
"VEGETA! VEGETA!"
"OUR HERO!"
"OUR SAVIOR!"
"YOU'RE THE MAN!"
"HERCULE IS A FRAUD!"
"LONG LIVE THE GOLDEN FIGHTERS!"
More and more people chanted his name and soon, half of the arena filled his name. Vegeta scanned the crowd for the first person who chanted his name. His eyes fell on the same girl who had asked for his autograph. Teacon –that was her name. A faint smirk formed into his lips as he entered the barracks.
As he entered, he saw Videl with bloodshot eyes. He was slightly confused because he thought that she wanted this. She must've felt some sympathy for him after all.
"I thought you wanted this." Vegeta grunted.
"I…I thought I did…" Videl whispered. Gohan strengthened his old on her in order to comfort her.
"And you?" He asked his son. Kaiser looked at him for a few moments before answering.
"This is not us." Kaiser said evenly.
"We are Saiyans."
"We aren't animals."
Vegeta wanted to say something in return but he knew his son was right but no one would hold this against him. Every Z Fighter wanted to see Mr. Satan suffer but they didn't know how they wanted to see him suffer.
"Okay people!" Kaiser said in his cheerful tone. "Let's not let this bring us down. We have exposed Mr. Satan for what he truly is and that's all that matters. Dad let out some aggression and he deserved to and what happened, happened. There's no need to cling on the past and let's move on." Kaiser smiled at his friends.
Everyone could tell that the mood had softened in the barracks and smiled had resurfaced on those lips that were capable of smiling.
"You're next Bri." Kaiser said as he gave her a good luck kiss. "Good luck and don't let him touch you. He's filthy." He spat.
"Don't worry Kaiser. I'll win." She kissed him back.
"I would say good luck but I doubt that you'll need it." Gohan chuckled.
"Of course she doesn't need it. She'll kick the guy's ass without breaking a sweat! Ain't that right Bri?" Videl smirked.
"Hell yeah!" She giggled.
"There goes your opponent." Goku remarked as Yammu was called to the ring. "Finish him off as soon as possible." The veteran Saiyan advised.
"Don't be a fool Kakarot. If the human could beat his partner, there's no doubt that she'll beat him." Vegeta grunted.
"I suppose." Goku grinned.
"Don't worry Goku. This will be easy." She said as she heard her name being called. She gave everyone a smile and rushed out to the ring.
The crowd, more specifically the males, hooted when Brila walked towards the ring. She gave them smiles and waves just before she entered the ring.
"Contestants! Begin!" The announcer said excitedly.
"Do me a favor and quit." Yammu grunted. "I don't take pleasure in hurting weak people."
"You underestimate me." Brila countered.
"I can sense your power. You are weak and you're a girl too."
"You talk too much."
"Let's get this done with." He spat as he threw himself at Brila. Brila kept her word and didn't let him touch her. She jumped over and behind him and shot a ki blast which was strong enough to send him flying into the wall.
"Jerk." She spat.
For Yammu, it happened all too fast. He sat up on the lush green grass realizing that he had been knocked out of the ring by a girl. He wanted to get back into the ring and beat her up but that wasn't what he was here for. He scowled and disappeared from the scene.
"Your winner by ring out! BRILA!" The announcer cheered. The crowd cheered in delight. They laughed and enjoyed themselves when Brila had knocked her opponent out so easily.
Brila gave the crowd a few smiles and a few waves and made her way back to the barracks. She was greeted by Gohan and Videl who embraced her in a hug. They congratulated her and she thanked him and then she turned to Kaiser.
She walked up to him and he smiled at her. He put his arms around her and pressed his lips on hers for a few moments. "Well done."
"Thank you Kaisy." She said as she turned her attention to Gohan. "It's your turn now Gohan."
"Yes." He said excitedly.
"Good luck kid." Piccolo said as he put his hand on his student's shoulder.
"Thanks Piccolo. Good luck to you too."
"Good luck Gohan." Videl said as she gave him a kiss. "I don't think you want one, right Piccolo?"
Piccolo merely grunted and walked out to the arena upon hearing his name being called.
"Have fun G." Kaiser stated. Gohan gave him a nod and walked out to the arena when he heard his name being called.
"I think I should set up a barrier. These two have gotten stronger over the years." Kaiser said as he focused his energy on creating a barrier.
"Hey Kaiser." Brila said.
"Hm?" He said as he watched student and mentor trade blows.
"Where's Rosaria? I haven't seen her since we got here. She did say that she would come, didn't she?"
Kaiser let that information sink in as he thought about it carefully. It's true. She wasn't here and she wasn't on the island either. She did say that she was going to make it. Did something more important come up? It was possible but if that were the case, she would've informed him but she didn't.
"I don't know. She's not on the island." Kaiser replied unsurely. He had a bad feeling about this but he couldn't explain it. Something was wrong and for some reason he believed that this was the Supreme Kai's doing.
"I hope she gets here soon. She's missing some good fights." She said as she saw Gohan transform into a Super Saiyan." Looks like he's gotten serious."
"Yeah, this match will be over soon." Kaiser grunted.
"I always get chills when he transforms." Videl giggled.
"It is pretty cool isn't it?" Brila added.
Piccolo was panting heavily. He had removed his weighted clothing but even so he was no match for him. He wasn't displeased. He was happy. Gohan had truly come a long way from when he trained him and it made him so proud. He dodged a right hook and planted his fist into Gohan's palm – his face being the original target.
Gohan countered it with his own right hook that sent the Namek flying but he regained his composure quickly and shot out his signature attack.
"SPECIAL BEAM CANNON!" The green giant yelled as he shot a yellow spiral at his pupil.
Gohan powered up a little and cupped his hands together for his signature attack. "KAMEHAMEHA!" He growled and it instantly pushed Piccolo's attack and knocked him out of the ring.
"Your winner by ring out! GOHAN!" The announcer cheered making the crowd explode in cheers. They immediately recognized him as the winner of the last tournament.
Gohan helped his mentor to his feet and helped him to the barracks where they both were congratulated on the splendid match.
In the otherworld…
Lila sat in front of the visual pool. She watched all the matches with joy and felt immense pride when her son had stopped Vegeta from fatally wounding Hercule but like Kaiser, she also had a bad feeling about things but what bewildered her more was that the Supreme Kai was there. She hadn't ever met him but she heard that he was the highest in terms of ranks when it came to Godhood.
There must be a reason why the Supreme Kai was there but she didn't know what it was. She was snapped out of her senses when she sensed her mate and best friend materialize and to her surprise, they were actually injured.
"What happened?" She asked with concern.
"Turns out this Janemba was stronger than we thought." Bardock spat.
"He forced Bardock to go Super Saiyan 3." Soba said calmly. "I would've used my full power too but he didn't need my assistance."
"Sounds tough." She remarked.
"It wasn't that heard once I transformed. He whopped both us when I was Super Saiyan 2 and blue boy here was at half power." Bardock grunted getting a snarl from said blue boy.
Lila giggled and hugged them both. "At least you two are okay and that's all that matters."
Back on Earth…
Kibito had just defeated his opponent with no difficulty. He just punched him on his stomach – knocking him out in the process.
"Ladies and Gentlemen! The first round has come to a conclusions and the second round will begin in thirty minutes. Get your snacks now!" He announced as he retreated to his quarters.
"A Saiyan dominated tournament this is." Gohan remarked.
"True." Brila said.
"We got four and a half Saiyans. Two humans and one…" Videl wasn't quite sure what the pink guy was.
"He must be from a race where their social ideology is retarded. I mean, who the hell has pink skin?!" Kaiser exclaimed.
Laughter was shared in the barracks as the Z Fighters prepared for the next round.

A.N: That's it for this chapter. I hope you guys liked this chapter and I apologize for the late update. Certain things have transpired in the real world but since this chapter is longer than the usual, I hope you guys can forgive me. Again, remember the people who suffered because of the hurricane in your prayers.
ProManic: I am so glad you're back! I was missing your funny reviews. I know but I personally wanted Trunks to win. I guess I should've asked what the public wanted. He did beat him up quite a bit and Mr. Satan's thoughts on his match will be there on the next chapter. Please keep them long. I like reading long reviews. Kaiser is not the type to wuss out as you'll see. Kaiser doesn't care who he is. He is Kaiser Vegeta Briefs! He isn't very strong. He's quite weak actually and he got his ass handed to him by Videl. You'll have to wait and see. I can't promise you anything however I do like your idea. I don't think they will. I don't see any point in making them Super Saiyan 2s but that remains to be seen. Mr. Satan will be revealed as a fraud. I am not quite sure but I do have some ideas for Tarble. It will be a humorous chapter though.
VegetaFan4Ever: First of all, I am so so so so so so so so so so sorry for not replying to your PMs. I have said why I couldn't in my PM but I am still very sorry. I have gone through your PMs and I thought I should reply to your review first because I want to save the most important part for last. I hope you had fun. Tell Gabi I said hi :3 Worry not Kitty, you will go again soon. Thank you. I knew you would love that. I did especially for you because I know you're a huge Vegeta fan, well… that's kinda obvious lol. Damn! I should've done that! Then I could have had Trunks AND Goten beat up Hercule. Y U NO PRESENT THIS IDEA EARLIER. And I took your suggestion about your character's current whereabouts. I will give you credit for it when I get to that chapter. I remember. Those were the golden days. Back when I was very young. Not that I am old right now. Great. Now people think that I am some old man who has nothing better do than writing DBZ fics -.-. I AM 18 PEOPLE!
