Gohan, Krillin, Ocarin and Vegeta watched as Piccolo and Frieza began to face off against each other. "I put my finger on it. But I sense something's different about Piccolo." Gohan murmured.
"I do as well." Ocarin replied, sensing something different about him.
"What are you two talking about?" Krillin questioned.
"The Piccolo I know would never do this unless he thought for sure he'd win!" Gohan said, smiling.
"Do you think he'll win?" Krillin said unsure.
"Would you cut the crap! There's nothing different about your stupid green friend and there's no way he'll win against Frieza, alright!" Vegeta growled. Gohan looked back down towards Piccolo with hesitation.
"B-But Piccolo said that..."
"He will win." Gohan looked at Ocarin, seeing her focusing on the fight, looking at Piccolo.
"So, you think you're pretty tough, huh? Well, it won't take me long to have you face first in the dirt begging for mercy!" Frieza smirked.
"You're all talk, Frieza." Piccolo scowled at him. Then he quickly vanished and reappeared right in front of Frieza before he could react, knocking Frieza straight into the air. The two began to clash against each other throwing punches and kicks. It created blasts of energy, blinding everyone and almost blowing them away in the air. Frieza darted back as Piccolo threw another punch at him.
"Come back here!" Piccolo growled and he grabbed Frieza before he could dodge Piccolo. Piccolo kicked Frieza knocking him away.
"Piccolo did it!" Gohan cheered. However, Frieza managed to grab hold of Piccolo's cape and slammed him right into the mountain plateau, pinning him down. Piccolo started to break free out of Frieza's grasp but Frieza quickly pulled away fired multiple energy blast at Piccolo, destroying the mountain as well. Ocarin and Gohan gasped in horror watching in worry.
"Piccolo!" Ocarin cried out. The smoke cleared and Piccolo stood up as he climbed out of the rubble, narrowing his eyes, glaring at Frieza. Ocarin sighed in relief and smiled, glad to see that he was alright.
"He's okay!" Gohan smiled as well. Frieza laughed as he looked down at Piccolo.
"You surprised me, my friend. I thought our time together has come to an end."
Just as the two were about to fight again, Vegeta suddenly took off, leaving Gohan, Krillin and Ocarin behind. "Vegeta!" Krillin called out. Frieza glanced over at the Saiyan prince seeing him trying to escape. He quickly teleported away from Piccolo and reappeared right in front of Vegeta, stopping the Saiyan in his tracks. Vegeta froze as he stared at Frieza. Frieza smirked and punched Vegeta in his stomach, knocking Vegeta back over towards Gohan, Ocarin and Krillin. He flew past them and crashed into another mountain below them.
Frieza turned back towards Piccolo. "Pardon me for the intrusion but I just had to take care of something. Time to wipe that smug look of that face!"
Piccolo charged at him, throwing more punches and kicks, landing a few on Frieza as he tried to dodge Piccolo's attacks. Then Piccolo began to rapidly fire energy blasts at him. Dende and Necke watched in awe as the looked at PIccolo, wondering who he was. How did he know their names?
Then more Dende stared at Piccolo watching his attacks. They looked so similar. Dende eyes widen in realization. "It's him! It's Nail!"
"What?" Necke asked.
"How do you think he knew our names!? Piccolo fused with Nail!" Dende pointed out to him.
Then Frieza manged to grab Piccolo and the two crashed into the water below, diving deep into it. Gohan, Ocarin and Krillin watched in concern as they waited.
"Any sign of Piccolo?" Gohan asked.
"I don't see him. But I can still sense him. I'm sure he's fine." Ocarin assured him. Then Frieza came out of the water and floated in the air just across them with a smug smirk on his face. Piccolo still didn't come up. Ocarin looked down at the water in worry. "Piccolo, where are you?"
"Aw, don't look so sad, your green friend is just fine and to prove it I'll bring him up for you." Frieza pulled his arm back and started to create an large energy blast. Piccolo came out from the water and Frieza and fired it at him. Piccolo was knocked back and collided into some plateaus. "Well, maybe I exaggerated on the "just fine" part, by hey, whose keeping score anyway?"
"Piccolo!" Gohan shouted in worry.
"Well, that takes care of your little comrade." Frieza smirked as he crossed his arms. Ocarin frowned at him. Then the mountains below them began to crumble and started to shatter, revealing Piccolo. Ocarin turned back to Frieza.
"You were saying?" She mocked him. Frieza's eyes widen in shock to see that Piccolo was still alive after that blast.
"What?!" He exclaimed. Piccolo floated into the air, releasing an large amount of energy levels as everyone stared at him in shock and awe.
"You underestimate my power!" He shouted at Frieza.
"We might actually stand a chance!" Krillin grinned, hopefully.
"Yeah!" Gohan nodded.
"It's like Vegeta said all we have to do is fight as one! Now let's go!" Krillin said and the three turned to Frieza getting ready to attack him all at once when Piccolo flew up behind them.
"You three stay put!" He stopped them. "Didn't I say that I'll take care of Frieza?"
"But we can all take care of him right now if we fight together!" Ocarin insisted. Piccolo glanced over at her.
"I have to do this. Don't argue with me." He said calmly. His soft tone took Ocarin by surprise. It reminded her of Nail. She nodded and Piccolo flew towards Frieza, attacking him again. He landed several hard blows and one on Frieza's neck, knocking him back. Frieza growled and rushed at Piccolo.
"You disgust me!" He grabbed Piccolo by his cape, lifting the Namekian into the air. Piccolo chuckled as he stared at Frieza, laughing in a mocking tone.
"Well, I guess you're wondering how I can anticipate your every move, right, horn boy?" Frieza's eyes widen and he gritted his teeth angrily.
"What did you call me?!" He exclaimed. Piccolo made a smug smirk at him.
"Is that the best that you can do against me, huh, Frieza?" Nail's voice came out from Piccolo's lips. Frieza's eyes widen.
"That voice!" He shouted as he stared at Piccolo in shock. Ocarin stared in shock as well before realizing why Piccolo was acting a little differently than normal. "Let's finish what we've started!" Piccolo and Frieza began to land more kicks and punches at each other, each blow evenly matched with the other.
"Nail?" Ocarin murmured softly. Gohan eyes widen and he turned to her and so did Krillin as well.
"What did you say?"
"Guys, I don't know how to say this. But that's Nail and that's his voice! I guess Piccolo must have fused or merged with him somehow." Ocarin explained to them. Gohan turned back to Piccolo staring at him in awe at his massive strength that he was able to hold his own against Frieza.
"Wow! So that's how he got so strong!"
"With our combined strength even you Frieza are no match for us!" Piccolo shouted at Frieza. "Now that I've released this ultimate power, it's time to finish this little game." He grabbed Frieza about to land a punch on him but Frieza used his tail to smack Piccolo away from. Piccolo was knocked down back onto the ground. He stood up and turned back towards Frieza. Piccolo's eyes widen and so did everyone else when they saw Frieza created a large energy beam and fired it directly at Piccolo. But Piccolo didn't move or attempt to dodge it. Gohan, Krillin and Ocarin and Vegeta watched as they saw the beam heading towards him.
"Piccolo!" Ocarin cried out.
"Piccolo move!" Gohan shouted. As the beam almost reached Piccolo, Piccolo threw back his arm and smacked the beam back. It deflected right back and exploded right into Frieza.
"How did-" Vegeta gasped in awe and so did everyone else as they waited to see if Frieza was truly gone. The smoke cleared, revealing Frieza with his arms crossed covering his face as he shielded himself from the blast but with some burns and scratches as well.
"No way." Ocarin shook her head in disbelief. "What's it going to take to defeat this guy?"
Frieza brought his arms down, glaring at Piccolo. "You're dead!" He growled.
Everyone saw Frieza land back on the ground in front of PIccolo. The two stared each other down, waiting to see who would make the next move. Then Piccolo heard Frieza chuckle and before he could defend himself, Frieza punched Piccolo in the face. Piccolo stumbled back and Frieza landed another punch to his face and a kick to Piccolo's side. Piccolo fell on the ground and Frieza lunged at him about to stomp down on him. Piccolo quickly pushed himself up and jumped into the air and Frieza followed after him, reaching his speed.
"What the?! No matter how quick I move, he still beats me!" Piccolo hissed, gritted his teeth.
"It's like Frieza is getting more and more powerful by each minute passing." Ocarin frowned. "I don't like this." Gohan cried out when he saw Frieza elbow Piccolo in the face knocking him back. Piccolo was sent flying back down, crashing into the ground.
"What do we do now?!" Gohan asked as he turned to Ocarin, Krillin and Vegeta.
"Don't worry, Gohan. It's just like they say. It ain't over until the fat lady sings." Krillin said.
"Well, I've say she's rung a few bars." Vegeta gritted his teeth.
"Come on, Piccolo." Ocarin murmured softly.
Piccolo climbed out of the rubble and out of the crater and stood up glaring at Frieza. His weighted cape was slightly torn. His purple gi had a small hole on it and he was covered in a few scratches. Frieza stood on top of a rock, smirking down at him, crossing his arms.
"Well, it looks like the tables have turned again, my friend. It's time. Are you ready for the taste of your demise because it's coming up right now." He smirked at Piccolo.
Piccolo off his weighted clothes and tossed his cape and turban on the ground and started to crack his knuckles and neck. "Alright, Frieza. I don't have all day." Frieza's eyes widen in shock.
"What?! You're serious!?" Piccolo smirked back at him, silently, chuckling. Frieza chuckled, darkly. "Well, I will give you points for courage. But that's all one can expect from a Namek!"
"Sticks and stones, Frieza." Piccolo said.
"What the-Piccolo! Are you crazy!?" Gohan shouted.
"I think I get it. Piccolo's going to gather all the strength from Nail and release it all on Frieza!" Krillin shouted.
"IT'S TIME TO FEEL THE WRATH OF ALL THE NAMEKS THAT YOU'VE DESTROYED!" Piccolo shouted at Frieza, furiously, as he started to gather his energy. His power level began to climb, getting stronger and stronger.
"You can do it, Piccolo!" Ocarin shouted.
"Go for it! I know that you can beat him!" Gohan shouted.
"I don't know about you but I'm ready. So, whenever you're finished powering up then maybe we can get started." Frieza said.
Piccolo charged at Frieza at a fast speed, colliding into him. Frieza flew up and Piccolo chased after him. Frieza dodged a kick from Piccolo from behind. Then Piccolo quickly appeared behind Frieza again and kicked him again. Frieza was sent flying down and Piccolo grabbed Frieza from behind so he wouldn't escape.
"Oh by the way, you cowardly clown, I'm only getting warmed up." Piccolo smirked and he sent the two of them plummeting and crashed Frieza into the ground. Gohan and Krillin cheered and Ocarin smiled. But she still had a bad feeling that something was wrong.
Dende and Necke watched from afar from their hiding spot, cheering as well, seeing Frieza crashed into the ground.
"Nail did it!" Dende cheered.
"Frieza's defeated!" Necke shouted.
Piccolo floated a little closer to the ground to the crater where Frieza had crashed as he was still buried inside the rubble. "And for good measure!" Piccolo fired multiple energy blasts at the crater, exploding it. Then everyone looked up and saw that Frieza was floating above them as he had survived the blast.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Piccolo hissed under his breath.
"I just wish that you could get it through your head. You can't defeat me!" Frieza smirked.
"Just watch me!" Piccolo shouted. Frieza laughed and dropped down to the ground and Piccolo followed, keeping his eyes on him wondering what Frieza was going to do next.
"You don't know how strong that I really am." Piccolo frowned at him as Frieza continued. "There is one thing that I should tell you about and that is my power to transform. You didn't my first transformation, but I have others and each time my strength becomes much stronger which means all of your attacks were completely pointless. Now that business is cleared up, I think it's time that I've finish you off!" Frieza landed on the ground and so did Piccolo, who braced himself for what was about to come.
"Now you'll see that I wasn't bluffing because now I will be transforming before your very eyes! After this one, I still have one more transformation!"
"You're full of it!" Piccolo spatted out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, with great honor I present to you the most transformation ever witnessed!" Frieza declared. He began to gather up his energy. Piccolo gritted his teeth as he sensed an alarming rise from Frieza's power level so did everyone else. Frieza laughed. "Take a good look, Namek, because after all you'll never live to see another." Frieza's body began to move as it stretched out wider, his armor getting thicker and harder and bulkier, his head began to grow longer and flatter while his horns started to disappear and reappear on his back.
"Piccolo." Ocarin murmured under her breath, getting more worried for him. Frieza laughed evilly.
"You seem pretty sure of yourself so why don't you come and get a piece of me? Looks like I'll have to get the ball rolling again." He quickly shot up at lightning speed into the air, catching Piccolo off guard. Then Frieza quickly came back down, flying towards Piccolo. Piccolo quickly dodged him and flew up and Frieza followed behind him. Piccolo quickly teleported a few feet away before Frieza appeared right in front of him.
"Well, hello there haven't we met before? It's been so long waiting for you." Frieza smirked as he mocked Piccolo. Gohan, Ocarin, Krillin and Vegeta followed after them.
"Frieza gotten a lot faster than Piccolo." Gohan frowned.
"Faster and stronger, Frieza's got Piccolo beat." Krillin agreed as well. Vegeta looked and noticed Dende and Necke below them, chasing after Frieza and Piccolo and smirked as he set his sights on Dende.
Piccolo gritted his teeth in frustration and clenched his fists tightly as he stared at Frieza. Then he charged at him again trying to land a punch or kick but Frieza dodged every single one of them. He tried to charge at Frieza again, but Frieza fired an energy blast at Piccolo, knocking him back. It was a lot stronger than before. Piccolo steadied himself back in the air and glared at Frieza who was laughing as he taunted him. Piccolo growled and shot towards Frieza. Frieza headed towards Piccolo and flew past him and kicked Piccolo in the back and started to landed more kicks and punches. Piccolo couldn't keep up as he tried to defend himself. Frieza was faster. Frieza kicked Piccolo in the face, knocking the Namek back in the air. Frieza laughed and flew over to Piccolo.
"Now, now you're not giving up already, are you?" He mocked. Piccolo glared back at him. "So you really though that your superior skill was going to save you? Well, you're a lot dumber than you look you inferior little Namekian. Looks like it's time to shut up and turn out the lights!" Frieza fired a blast into Piccolo's knee then another shot then he began to unleash multiple blasts at Piccolo's body.
"Piccolo!" Ocarin shouted.
Frieza laughed evilly as he fired rapidly more blast at Piccolo. He was getting too exhausted and growing weaker to escape them.
He was going to die if someone didn't do something soon!
