Nappa crossed his arms over his chest, watching as the group remained hovered and poised for his attack. "Even combined you're not going to stop me."

"We'll just have to see." Sho said with determination.

Nappa smirked, letting out a chuckle. "You're going to regret crossing the Saiyans."

Piccolo growled, taking a stance. He shot forward, unleashing a barrage of punches and kicks. Sho and Tien came from the left, Yamcha and Krillin came from the right, Chaozu and Chi Chi came from the middle, all of them colliding with Nappa who remained rooted in his spot in the air. They circled him, closing off any gap he'd possibly have, then they flew into their combinations.

Krillin threw a whirling kick and Sho snapped his arms out in vicious combinations. Nappa fell into the rhythm of the battle, blocking and dodging the multitude of attacks. He could never be still for even a second, his foes were pushing him to the absolute limit, and to be still would welcome a direct hit. He slipped away from Yamcha's punch, dodging and parrying Tien's and Piccolo's barrage of blows, shooting towards Chi Chi and Chaozu.

He exchanged combinations with the two, breaking through their guard with his brute strength. As Chi Chi and Chaozu flew away from Nappa, struggling to stop their momentum, Sho and Piccolo came flying up side by side, throwing punches and kicks. Aiming high and low, they darted and shot around Nappa, forcing the brute of a Saiyan to pursue after them throwing a volley of blasts.

Sho turned, unleashing a quick barrage of blasts, intercepting each of Nappa's in rapid succession, shaking the landscape with debris and smoke.

"How about you stop running and fight!" Nappa hollered.

He threw a swiping kick at Yamcha, halting the man's advance in short and forcing him to backpedal away. Nappa couldn't seize the moment however, as Tien and Krillin came flying up to him, quickly going into an exchange of blows that shook the mountains around them and sent cracks rippling through the ground.

Nappa thrust his arm forward, sweeping it wide, and all at once a part of the landscape erupted, light scattering around with the debris.

Sho looked at the trench in the landscape. It had no end at all. He clenched his teeth, turning his furious glare onto Nappa.

"What's the matter earthling? Did I make you mad?" Nappa taunted.

Sho growled, eyeing Nappa with fury.

Nappa chuckled loudly. "Feel free to do something about."

Sho shot forward, driving a punch into Nappa's forearm. The brute of a Saiyan deflected the blow, snapping his own punch out, but Sho flipped over the attack and snapped out a high spinning kick. Nappa barely blocked the blow, gritting his teeth as he heaved against the force of the kick, forcing it off the side, he took the opening and threw a punch, skimming Sho's cheek.

Nappa charged forward, sweeping his arm. Sho swept his arm to the side, barely deflecting the strike and lunged in towards Nappa, slamming his knee into the Saiyan's gut.

Nappa took the blow, smirking widely as his eyes glinted. "Is that the best you can do?!"

Sho flew towards Nappa, bypassing everyone else in the process, and began to exchange combinations with the brute of a Saiyan. Flying left and right, Sho and Nappa began to blur in and out vision, forcing everyone to refocus and watch the two dart back and forth. Nappa was still stronger than Sho, but that didn't stop Sho from pushing the tempo every chance he got.

Nappa cracked his elbow off of Sho's fist, jumping back and away.

"Hey, cool it." Yamcha said, coming up beside Sho. "We need to take this guy on as a team."

Sho clenched his fists tighter.

"He has the advantage in the air. We need to get him on the ground." Yamcha continued, gripping Sho's shoulder. "Let's do this as a team."

"Secrets. You earthlings like to keep secrets." Nappa said, slowly taking a stance.

Sho took his own stance and shot forward, much to Yamcha's chagrin, who quickly flew after him, sweeping in from the side and peppering Nappa with blasts. Nappa shot away from the blasts, careening up towards Yamcha and unleashed a devastating punch. Yamcha's eyes widened, feeling the ki concentrated behind the fist.

To his surprise, Piccolo blocked the blow, pushing against Nappa.

Tien and Chi Chi flew up to one side of Nappa, Krillin and Chaozu flew up to the other side. They began to pepper Nappa with blasts, swarming the brute of a Saiyan with blitzing barrages. Then, to their surprise, Nappa shot out of the cloud, sweeping his arm forward with a chop, Sho hastily brought his guard up, but was sent sprawling towards the ground.

Nappa exchanged blows with Chaozu, Tien, Chi Chi, and Yamcha, his limbs rocketing back and forth in blocks, punches, and kicks. Piccolo, Sho, and Krillin shot into the melee, unleashing their own combinations, falling into the rhythm of the battle. They shot up, down, and to the side, forcing Nappa to pursue after them in frustration as each time he did, someone would strike him directly in the face.

Having enough of it after the third time, Nappa shot his limbs out, rapidly exchanging blows with Piccolo and Tien, breaking through their guard and sending them flying into nearby mountains. Nappa shot after Chaozu, who darted towards the ground, looking over his shoulder every few seconds to make sure Nappa was behind him.

He let his feet hit the ground, and he firmed himself into a stance, blocking Nappa's lumbering overhead strike.

Nappa began to push down on him, but Chaozu remained firm, and parried the blow, jumping back and away from the brute of Saiyan. Nappa chased after him, throwing a series of punches and kicks that had Chaozu jumping left to right, quickly bypassing the blows by inches each time. Chi Chi came flying up behind him as he blocked Nappa's chop, snapping her legs forward, smashing the Saiyan's defenses with punches and kicks.

Nappa blocked her kick, punching her towards the ground. He careened towards her, but at the very last minute he seen a blur too fast, and he was sent flying off to the side, crashing head-first into a mountain.

Chi Chi blinked, watching the Saiyan start to pick himself up. She had barely seen that blur of movement, and as she looked up, her heart leapt as Gohan stood hovered there in his stance, scruffy black hair blowing in the wind, his orange martial arts uniform proudly worn, his tail flicking left to right.

"Take that you jerk!" Gohan yelled.

"I'll get you back for that." Nappa said with a scowl, standing back up to his full height.

Everyone landed on the ground next to Gohan, taken surprise his great courage. Chi Chi wanted to scold him, she wanted to tell him to leave, but she knew it would be a moot point.

She just stood in admiration of her son, taken surprise by his courage.

"This guy just keeps pushing. We need to do something and quick." Tien said in between pants, gaining his breath.

"I might be able to get a hold of him with my telekinesis for a split second. Someone will need to strike his spine and break it." Chaozu said, laying out his strategy.

Piccolo stepped forward. "That'll have to be me. Him and I are equal."

"That leaves the rest of us to keep him busy." Krillin said with some wariness, smirking.

"Do you think you can handle it?" Piccolo asked, tone having little levity. "His blows are heavy."

"I can handle him." Sho said, eyeing Nappa with fury. He hadn't forgotten how the Saiyan tore a trench in the earth.

"Chaozu. Are you sure you can get a hold of him?" Yamcha asked, watching as Nappa began to stalk forward, the smirk never leaving his face.

Yamcha was tired of seeing that stupid smirk.

"Yeah. I'll be able to hold him." Chaozu said, tone firm.

Chaozu firmed his resolve, feeling Nappa's ki trembling through the earth with each step. He'd only be able to hold him for a split second, that would probably be all he could manage, but it would be enough. Enough to break the guard of Nappa where one powerful strike would break him at his foundations.

"Let's do it guys." Krillin said.

"Right." Gohan said.


Goku watched the arid wasteland pass by below him. He could feel the monstrous ki behind him keeping a steady pace. This guy was confident and determined to battle it out. Goku would make sure he didn't disappoint.

"This is a good place. No people or animals will be hurt this far out." Goku observed.

Vegeta smirked slightly noting that Goku was slowing down, growing tired of the flight himself, he vanished. He landed on a tall mountain overlooking the arid mountainous landscape.

Goku landed on a smaller mountain right below Vegeta's.

"Interesting. You chose this place to be where you make you final stand." Vegeta said, crossing his arms over chest. "You should feel lucky. It's not every day a low class gets to spar with a super elite. Not long after Saiyans are born their skills are tested. Scum who rank low are sent to outer worlds where the planet is weak. Much like you were Kakarot."

Goku smiled, not the least bit tempted swayed. "As a result I was lucky enough to come here to Earth. I'm grateful for that. Besides, even a lower class can surpass an elite if he puts his mind to it."

Vegeta chuckled, his smirk widening. "That's a nice attempt at humor." He took a stance. "Now let me show you a wall you will never have the ability to scale through effort alone."

Goku narrowed his eyes taking a stance. He leapt forward, closing the gap in mere seconds with a straight punch. Vegeta dodged to the side, throwing his own counter, Goku blocked it with a punch of his own. Vegeta leapt back, throwing out a quick combination, but Goku was quick and fired out his own series of combinations, ducking under two sweeping blows from Vegeta.

Vegeta leapt back, maintaining his guard as Goku fired off punch after punch. Vegeta shifted to the side, sweeping his leg out in a high kick, but Goku swayed out of the way and returned fire with his own kick. Vegeta flipped back and away from the kick, skipping across the mountains in leaps as he distanced himself, but Goku was quick and leapt after him, increasing his speed with each leap.

Vegeta leapt off a mountain, closing the gap between himself and Goku, taking the Saiyan by surprise, and landed a hook punch to Goku's jaw that had him sprawling back. Goku flipped back, leaping off of a mountain and soaring high into the sky. Vegeta appeared behind Goku in midair. landing a kick to his back that had Goku flipping forward and towards the ground.

He leapt off the ground, quickly scaling up a mountain. Vegeta was right in front of him, throwing out punches and kicks with rapid speed and precision. Goku traded blows with him, both of them soaring high into the sky, circling each other with each strike. Vegeta finally got through Goku's guard with a quick straight, unleashing a quick barrage of blows that had Goku reeling backwards, and finished the combination with a double overhand strike that took the wind out of Goku.

He flew towards the ground, quickly gaining control over his trajectory. Vegeta landed on the tallest mountain that surveyed the entire landscape, crossing his arms over his chest.

Goku smiled. "Impressive. His speed and technique already surpass mine."

"Come on. Show me all of that strength you've been hiding."

"I'll show you." Goku said, clenching his fists.

He focused to his maximum, clenching his fists harder. Goku strained as a white outline began to form around his entire body, surging into a multitude of colors before he was wreathed in a fiery red aura.

"KAIOKEN!" He clenched his teeth, snapping his hand up and forward.

Vegeta leapt off the mountain just as it scattered into pieces. Goku shot forward, moving with thrice the speed he had before, that it took Vegeta by surprise. He landed a solid punch across Vegeta's jaw, hammering blow after blow to his face, before leveling a straight that had Vegeta flying backwards. At the last second, Vegeta recovered and disappeared, appearing beside Goku and landed a high kick.

Goku fired a blast at Vegeta, jumping back and away with a push of his ki. Vegeta deflected the blast easily, darting in towards Goku and unleashing a quick straight punch. Goku moved to the side, dodging the punch by a fraction and leapt back again. Vegeta snapped two kicks forward, sweeping across the air, and Goku could only hastily dodge both before he returned fire with his own kicks.

Vegeta dodged and blocked the kicks, circling around Goku, using his superior speed to race around. Goku, wreathed in a fiery aura kept pace with him, firing off combination after combination. Vegeta met the charge with one of his own, nearly breaking through Goku's guard with a hard cross that had the Saiyan backpedaling.

Vegeta threw a kick just as Goku threw a knee, both of their limbs meeting in a thunderous clap of force. The mountains around them dispersed into pieces, sweeping back and away across the landscape.

They broke apart, hovering a few meters from each other.

"If that's the limit of what you have to offer then I'm disappointed." Vegeta said, retaining his cocky smirk.

Goku clenched his fists, laughing. This guy is brutal.

Look at him smiling and laughing. Perhaps he can raise his power even higher and he's trying to disguise it. Vegeta thought, maintaining his composure.

The wind gusted around them, howling in the silence of the landscape.

"Come on. Are you done already? I guess you're all talk and no action huh? Allow me to show you something before you meet your end. The overwhelming power of a Saiyan super elite. Even at your peak you're still no match for me." Vegeta goaded.

"Wanna bet?" Goku asked, excited by the challenge.


Kukyo watched the frozen wasteland pass by below her. She could feel the monstrous ki behind her keeping a steady pace. This Saiyan was truly confident and determined to battle it out. Kukyo would make sure she didn't disappoint.

"This is a good place. No people or animals will be hurt this far out." Kukyo said, looking for a place to land.

Vable smirked, noting that Kukyo was slowing down, growing tired of the flight herself, she vanished in super speed. She skipped across the air, landing on a tall mountain overlooking the frozen mountainous landscape.

Kukyo landed on a smaller mountain right below Vable's.

"Interesting. What made you choose this place?" Vable said, crossing her arms over her chest.

"These are the Tsurumai-Tsuburi Mountains." Kukyo said, smiling with pride.

Vable chuckled. "Sarpa. You and I would make a good team. There's no one in the universe who could touch us. We would rule the planets and you could have anything you wanted. Anything. Nothing would be out of your grasp. Well, what do you say Sarpa?"

Kukyo smiled, not the least bit tempted or swayed. "I have everything I could want right here on Earth. All I need is my family and friends."

Vable laughed, her smirk widening. "So be it." She took a stance. "You had your chance."

Kukyo narrowed her eyes taking a stance. She leapt forward, closing the gap in mere seconds with a straight kick. Vable dodged to the side, throwing her own counter spin kick, Kukyo blocked it with a reverse spinning kick of her own. Vable leapt back, throwing out a quick combination, but Kukyo was quick and fired out her own series of combinations, ducking under sweeping kicks from Vable.

Vable leapt back, spinning and whirling as Kukyo fired off kick after kick. Vable shifted to the side, sweeping her leg out in a reverse high kick, but Kukyo swayed out of the way and returned fire with her own reverse kick. Vable flipped back and away from the kick, skipping across the mountains in leaps as she distanced herself, but Kukyo was quick and leapt after her, increasing her speed with each leap.

Vable leapt off the ground, closing the gap between herself and Kukyo, taking the Saiyan by surprise, and landed a sweeping kick to Kukyo's jaw that had her sprawling backwards. Kukyo flipped, leaping off of a mountain and soaring high into the sky. Vable appeared behind Kukyo in midair, landing a kick to her back that had Kukyo flipping forward and towards the ground.

Kukyo leapt off the ground, quickly scaling up a mountain. Vable was right in front of her, throwing out punches and kicks with rapid speed and precision. Kukyo traded blows with her, both of them soaring high into the sky, circling each other with each strike. Vable pushed through Kukyo's guard with a quick kick, unleashing a quick barrage of blows that had Kukyo reeling backwards, and finished the combination with an ax kick that took the wind out of Kukyo.

She flew towards the ground, quickly gaining control over her trajectory. Vable landed on the tallest mountain of ice that surveyed the entire landscape, crossing her arms over her chest.

Kukyo smiled. "She's good. Far better than I expected. I'll get her though."

"What's wrong Sarpa? I was expecting a more interesting fight."

"You'll get one. I promise." Kukyo said, clenching her fists.

She focused to her maximum, clenching her fists harder, pushing herself into a squat. Kukyo strained as a white outline began to form around her entire body, surging into a multitude of colors before she was wreathed in a fiery red aura.

"Kaioken!" She clenched her teeth, snapping her hand up and forward.

Vable flipped off the mountain just as it scattered into pieces. Kukyo shot forward, moving with thrice the speed, that it took Vable by surprise. She landed a kick across Vable's jaw, hammering blow after blow to her face, before leveling a straight that had Vable reeling backwards. At the last second, Vable recovered, appearing beside Kukyo and snapping her leg up, landing a high kick.

Kukyo shot away from Vable, skipping across the mountains. Vable chased after her, smirking as she knew Kukyo was trying to draw her in. Kukyo landed on a mountain, lunging forward, letting out a cry of power as she accelerated. Vable raised her guard just in time, the kick barreled into her arm, sending a thunderous wave of force reverberating through her body.

Vable unleashed her own counter, sweeping in hard and fast with kicks. Kukyo moved left to right, snapping out her own kicks in quick bursts to break apart the rhythm and flow of Vable's barrage. After a full minute Vable changed it up and feinted, drawing Kukyo to the left, and she whirled around, lashing out with a back fist. Kukyo swept under the blow, returning fire with her own spinning kick that had Vable spinning hard and fast to intercept.

They broke apart as a thunderous wave dispersed around them, hovering a few meters from each other.

"That Kaioken is a neat trick, but I've encountered something like it before." Vable said, chuckling. "Don't tell me that's all you got. If it is, you better quit."

Kukyo clenched her fists, narrowing her eyes. Despite things looking so grim I'm actually enjoying the challenge.

Look at her. She's so calm. What kind of power could she possibly be hiding? I'll just have to make her show it to me. Vable thought, maintaining her composure.

The wind gusted around them, stirring in the silence of the landscape.

"Is that the best you can do? I got some bad news for you. You may be stronger than anyone else on this planet. But even at your peak you're still no match for me." Vable goaded.

"Wanna bet?" Kukyo asked, excited by the challenge.

"It's not every day a low level gets to spar with a super elite. Behold, the power of a Saiyan princess."
