Dragon Ball - Legacy of Gine Vol. 10

Episode 54 - The Appearance Of A Powerful Mysterious Youth!! 

It has been 10.5 Months since the Namekian's left for their new Planet and Kakarot has yet to return. At the Son Household,Gohan is preoccupied with studies. Chi Chi has retired as a Z-Fighter and has resumed duties as a full-time housewife and mom . 

Gine,however,is sick. Chi Chi and Gohan are taking care of her. Chi Chi even massages Gine's feet to make her feel a bit more comfortable. Gine loves this and tells Chi Chi that Bardock used to massage her feet whenever he was in the mood - which wasn't often. But says that he gave good ones. Chi Chi tells her that Kakarot massages her feet whenever she asks and that he sort of enjoys it,because he knows that she'll reward him with a great meal for it. Gine giggles.

At Capsule Corp,Bulma,Yamcha,Puar,and Oolong  are chatting about random stuff like a Cat Food Commercial that Puar hates. Bulma thinks about Vegeta. Suddenly,Vegeta's space ship (the one he wished for) lands in Bulma's Yard. Bulma and Co. race out to meet Vegeta,with Yamcha ready to fight.

An agitated,Vegeta exits the ship. He had hoped to find Kakarot in Space,but failed and is angry about it. He decides to take his frustrations out on Yamcha,but Bulma stops him and convinces him to stay at Capsule Corp. for a while.

Meanwhile,out in space,King Cold,Father of Frieza is on his way to Earth,intending to conquer it and to avenge his pride,which was decimated when Frieza was killed. The Z-Fighters sense King Cold,who they believe is a stronger Frieza,coming.

The Z-Fighters (and vegeta,though minus gine) head to Cold's arrival spot. King Cold arrives with a bunch of grunts. Vegeta is surprised that Frieza isn't there,but it's King Cold instead. Vegeta explains that King Cold used to run the Planet Trade Empire,until he retired and gave it to Frieza.

Before they could do anything,a Mysterious Youth appears and warns King Cold to leave or die. King Cold just laughs and tells the Boy that all who get in his way of Conquest will suffer. He sends his grunts after the Boy,but he easily takes them out with some impressive Sword techs. The Z-Fighters are surprised at the strength of this guy.

The Boy warns King Cold to leave or end up like his soldiers. King Cold is impressed by the Boy's strength and offers him a position in his Empire. The Boy refuses. King Cold tries to convince him more,but it fails. King Cold tells the Boy that if he won't join him,then he will be treated as an enemy.

The Boy tells King Cold that he's gonna regret not heading home when he had the chace,but it's too late for him now. The Boy shocks everyone by transforming into a Super Saiyan. King Cold tries to defeat the Super Saiyan himself,but the Youth easily kills him and destroys his ship.

After reverting to his normal state, the teenager spots the Z Fighters and says that Kakarot will be arriving nearby soon. Despite their skepticism, the Z Fighters agree to join him in awaiting Kakarot's arrival. 

The Z-Warriors question the Mysterious Youth about his origins,but he refuses to say. After three hours of waiting, a space pod crash lands on Earth and Kakarot emerges from it. There is no time for celebration, however, as the Mysterious Youth pulls Kakarot aside to talk with him in private.

After testing Kakarot's Super Saiyan powers, the Boy reveals that his name is Trunks and that he comes from an apocalyptic future 20 years from the present. He also reveals that he is the future son of Bulma and Vegeta.

He further informs Kakarot that in three years from now,on an island south of South City,a pair of deadly androids,built by Red Ribbon Army creator,Dr. Gero,will begin a rampage on Earth and all of the Z Fighters will die in the battle,except for his Mentor,Gohan,who is killed at a later time.

He then reveals that Kakarot will be infected with and die from a radical alien heart virus six months before the Android's arrival. Knowing that Kakarot is a "True Warrior",Trunks gives him the antidote for the virus,which is non-existent in this time,but does exist in his. Trunks instructs Kakarot to take it when the virus attacks.

Piccolo hears the whole conversation using his special hearing. Kakarot promises that he and the other Z-Fighters will train hard for the next three years to prepare for the Androids' assault. Trunks then returns to the future in his time machine. 

At Vegeta's request,Kakarot tells the others what happened to him after Planet Namek's destruction. Kakarot explains that after hijacking a Space Pod,he found himself traveling aimlessly in space. He eventually crash landed on a planet called Yardrat and was nursed back to health by it's friendly inhabitants.

He also reveals that he learned Instant Transmission from them. After a talking about the upcoming fight for a few minutes,The Z-Fighters (and Vegeta) go their separate ways to each begin preparing themselves for the androids' assault.

Piccolo has accepted Kakarot and Gohan's invitation to train with them,Gine joins them after getting better. Tien and Chiaotzu train in the mountains. Yamcha trains in a Gym in West City. Krillin makes Master Roshi train him some more. And Vegeta trains in a Gravity Chamber that he forced Dr. Brief to make for him. Determined to become a Super Saiyan,Vegeta starts to train at 300x Gravity. 

---------------------------------------------------------- 

Episode 55 - The Undetectable Android Assault Begins!

After three years of intense training,the Z-Fighters meet on a cliff over the Island South of South City. Bulma is also there and has brought a Baby with her. She reveals the Baby's name (Trunks) and the father (Vegeta). Gine and the others are shocked that Bulma and Vegeta would get together. Piccolo asks where Vegeta is?

Bulma tells them that Vegeta is out in space,doing some last minute training. As the time approaches, the Androids are nowhere to be seen. Yajirobe arrives to deliver Korin's new batch of Senzu beans to the others,and as usual refuses to fight. As soon as he departs,his ship is shot down and crash lands in the ocean. The ones responsible are The Androids,who the Heroes couldn't detect. 

Gohan reveals that since the Androids are robotic,they don't have Ki,so they can't be detected. Gine agrees with this. Kakarot gives the Senzu Beans to Bulma for safe keeping. As Gine,Kakarot and the others search the city for their enemies,Gohan rescues Yajirobi.

And yes,for the first time,Gine is traveling barefoot in the City. This is an emergency,so it's okay. The Androids,Androids 19 and 20,are seeking Kakarot. eventually,Yamcha runs into them and becomes their first victim.

Yamcha has his his energy absorbed by Android 20 then impaled by him. The others arrive just in time to save him,and Kakarot eventually persuades the Androids to move to a new location to fight after a large portion of the city is destroyed.

Krillin takes Yamcha back to Bulma for a Senzu Bean. As Gine,Kakarot,Piccolo,and Tien take the Androids to a new location to battle,Krillin revives Yamcha with a Senzu Bean. However,once Yamcha reveals the Androids' ability to absorb energy,he,Krillin,and Gohan head off to warn the others.

Meanwhile,it is revealed to Kakarot and Gine,by Android 20,that the Androids were created solely for the perpose of Killing Gine and Kakarot for destroying the Red Ribbon Army. He explains that in order to make the Androids optimal for killing the Saiyan's,Dr. Gero,using miniature spy robots,analyzed Gine and Kakarot's fighting techniques and developments in strength.

Gine asks 20 if Gero researched them when they were on Namek? Android 20 tells the Barefooted Saiyan woman that there was no need to,as Dr. Gero had already gathered enough Data to work with. 

Kakarot is amused at the fact that the Androids are unaware of his ability to transform into a Super Saiyan,which He gladly demonstrates in front of them. A battle then ensues between Kakarot and Android 19,and though Kakarot has the upper hand,He soon appears to be losing energy.

Eventually,Kakarot is seen clutching the left side of his chest and is breathing heavy. Gohan and Gine both realize that it's the doing of the Heart Virus. Gine is upset with her Son for forgetting to take the medicine that the Future Boy gave him.

However,Piccolo notes that the virus is attacking Kakarot's heart much later than the Boy had predicted. As Kakarot struggles to stay conscious,19 prepares to finish the battle by absorbing Kakarot's remaining energy. 

Suddenly,Vegeta arrives,saving Kakarot by kicking the Android in the face. Vegeta blasts Kakarot for being stupid by not taken his medicine. Gine escorts Kakarot back home in order to administer the heart antidote to him.

Vegeta then faces off with the Androids, and much to everyone's surprise, transforms into a Super Saiyan. It is revealed that,the transformation comes from a need,not a desire. He Needed to be the Greatest Saiyan Warrior Alive,and to do that he Needed His Pride Restored,and for that He Needed to Kill Kakarot,and to do That,He Needed to become a Super Saiyan.

Vegeta beats up 19 and finishes him off with his new "Big Bang Attack",leaving nothing but the Android's head. Android 20 then escapes into the nearby cliffs,planning to use the terrain to launch a surprise attack on the Z Fighters.

----------------------------------------------------------

Episode 56 - The Shocking Revelation of More Androids!

The Z Fighters follow Android 20 and split up to search for Him. Frustrated at his enemy's deceptiveness,Vegeta fires a large ki blast at the cliffs,planning to level the area. Seeing this opportunity,Android 20 emerges from his hiding place,only to absorb Vegeta's blast and run away before Vegeta can catch up.

The Android then sneak attacks Piccolo from behind and begins to drain his energy. Gohan senses his Namekian Mentor being attacked and stops the Energy Drain. Gohan and Android 20 fight as Piccolo recovers using a Senzu Bean.

Piccolo joins in and Android 20 finds himself greatly overwhelmed by the Duo. Gine arrives back at the Son residents and tells Chi Chi about what has happened. She also advises that both of them take some of the medicine,just in case the virus is contagious.

Meanwhile,Trunks returns from the future. On his way to help the others,he gets disturbed by the remains of Android 19,revealing that this was Not one of the Androids of Death from his time. He begins to wonder if Time itself was altered. 

Trunks soon arrives at the current battlefield,and also seems not to recognize Android 20. Realizing that he has no chance of victory,20 decides to retreat to Dr. Gero's laboratory. He tells the Heroes to enjoy their Victory,because once he unleashes Android's 17 and 18,"No One Will Be Safe". This revilation shocks the heroes.

Android 20 laughs evill as hey launches a huge blast that engulfs most of the area - including Bulma's ship,to cover his escape. Bulma's ship plummets towards the ground,but Bulma and Baby Trunks are saved by Future Trunks.

As the dust settles,Android 20 is nowhere to be seen,and it is assumed that he plans to return to the laboratory to awaken Androids 17 and 18. Trunks reveals that 17 and 18 are the 2 Androids causing havoc in His timeline. t

Trunks than confronts Vegeta for failing to protect his family. Vegeta blasts back,telling him that he has other things to worry about.

Bulma then reveals that Android 20 is actually the Androids' creator,Dr. Gero,who has seemingly converted himself into an Android. The group then plan to find the lab and destroy the Androids before Gero can activate them.

Vegeta also sets off to find the lab, but with the intentions of fighting the Androids as a demonstration of his power. Trunks leaves to stop his father,while Piccolo finally unveils the truth of Trunks' origin to the rest of the group. He knew this because he overheard the conversation between Trunks and Kakarot.

Meanwhile, Piccolo,Krillin,Yamcha,and Tien split up and search the mountains where Gero's lab is rumored to be located,while Gohan takes Bulma,baby Trunks,and Yajirobe back to Capsule Corp. During his search,Krillin is attacked by Dr. Gero,but is spared when the evil scientist senses Piccolo nearby and escapes.

Dr. Gero finally makes it to his laboratory,with Krillin in hot pursuit. Tien,Yamcha,Piccolo,Vegeta,and Trunks soon locate him and break into the lab. However,the Heroes (and Vegeta) are too late and Dr. Gero has already activated Androids 17 and 18 (a black-haired man,and a blonde lady). Trunks confirms that those are indeed the 2 Androids that devastated his world.

Although initially appearing loyal,the duo demonstrate their independence when 17 destroys Gero's remote,ensuring that he cannot deactivate them again. 18 attempts to activate Android #16 - a fully mechanical model deemed a failure by Gero. 

Trunks is horrified at the existence of yet Another Android. Dr. Gero threatens his Androids and tries to stop them,but ends up getting blasted through the chest by 18 and getting his head crushed by 17. Dr. Gero is dead.

In an act of desperation,Trunks launches a large ki blast at the Androids,hoping to destroy 16 before he is activated. Although the entire lab is decimated,both Androids and 16's pod remain intact. 18 awakens 16,who reveals that he was designed to fight and kill Gine and Kakarot. 

With nothing better to do,Android 17 and 18 decide to seek out Kakarot and Gine and watch 16 fight and kill them. They don't get too far,as Vegeta interrupts them and challenges them to a fight. But only 18 steps up to face Vegeta.  

----------------------------------------------------------

Episode 57 - The Power Of The Androids Is Absolute!

It takes a bit of doing,but Super Saiyan Vegeta eventually defeats 18. However,the Bionic Blonde reveals that she wasn't using any power at all. The others arrive and are warned to let the fight be 1-on-1 by Android 17. After powering up to her Maximum,18 just beats the hell out of Vegeta. She attempts to finish the Saiyan Prince off,but Super Saiyan Trunks interferes to save his Father.

17 sees this and beats up Trunks. When Yamcha,Tien,and Piccolo get involved,he beats them up too. Krillin watches the horror. And Android #16 simply observes the nearby birds. After the fight,the Androids advise Krillin to use heal his Friends with some Senzu Beans before it's to late.

Krillin tries to reason with the Androids,but it fails. 18 thinks Krillin is cute that he's so concerned for his friends and gives him a kiss on the cheek. The Android trio then leave. Krillin feeds the remaining Senzu beans to each of his fallen comrades.

Vegeta flies off in anger, having been beaten. While Trunks explains to the others that the Androids of the future are different from the ones they just fought. The Androids of the present are not only more powerful,but they seem to be less cruel. And that Android 16 didn't even exist in his timeline.

As the heroes are thinking about what to do Next,Piccolo gets an idea that disgusts him,but he has no choice but to execute it. He flies off without telling anyone. However,Krillin thinks he knows what Piccolo is up to. He reveals that he thinks Piccolo wants to re-merge with Kami,tso that they'll have a fighting chance. He explains that he learned a while ago that when they were one,Kami and Piccolo were the most powerful being in the Galaxy,but lost that power when they split.

Krillin's hunch was correct,as Piccolo heads to Kami's Lookout to merge with the Guardian,believing that it's the only way to stop the Androids. However,Kami believes that the Androids are not entirely evil and that the only reason they fought against the Z-Fighters was because Vegeta attacked first.

Kami then decides to wait and see what happens,as Piccolo sits down waiting until Kami agrees to merge with him.

----------------------------------------------------------

Episode 58 - And The Horrors Just Keep On Coming!

Knowing that the Androids are likely to come to the Son residents,our Heroes move Kakarot to Kame House via Sky Van (something that Bulma gave to Kakarot and Chi Chi on a recent Wedding Anniversary). Gohan returns and joins them. Krillin doesn't think that the Androids are too bad,but Trunks tries to tell him otherwise.

Back at Capsule Corp,Bulma has just returned home and after putting Baby Trunks down for his nap,she removes her shoes and socks to relax barefoot. Bulma had her pretty feet recently pedicured,so her toenails are painted a nice shade of blue.

She suddenly receives a phone call about one of her company's products. She is sent a photograph (via fax) of what appears to be Trunks' time machine. She quickly contacts the Z-Fighters and tells them about the Mysterious Machine. She sends them a picture and Trunks wants to investigate,he takes Gine and Gohan with him.  

The Saiyans arrive at the area and begin their investigation. Bulma soon arrives as well. Trunks discovers that the Machine is the exact same one he traveled through time in,but reveals that they Bulma was only able to make one. He also recognizes it because of the word 'Hope' engraved on it - A word that Bulma wrote on the machine itself.

Meanwhile,Kami realizes that the evil he felt four years ago wasn't the Androids,but a monster with malevolent intent,who must've arrived in that time machine. Meanwhile,Trunks,Gine,Gohan,and Bulma are investigating the other time machine,when Gohan notices a strange shell that has been cast off by an unknown creature.

The Saiyan trio leave to report back to the others. Bulma returns home. On the way back home,Bulma watches a news broadcast about thousands of people in nearby Gingertown,who have inexplicably disappeared,as if they simply melted away in their clothes.

Kami also watches in horror as the people are killed,and finally decides to merge with Piccolo. Mr. Popo tries to get Kami to change his mind,but Kami tells Popo that everything will be alright and that Piccolo is far from being the monster that his father,Demon King Piccolo,was.

After the merging,Piccolo states that he is neither Piccolo nor Kami anymore,but a Namekian who has long since forgotten his name. After saying a "Farewell" to Mr. Popo,He departs from the lookout.

The Nameless Super Namekian arrives at an empty,ghostly-quiet Gingertown,where the monster steps out of the shadows to confront him. In the monsters possession is a man,begging for his life. While staring down the Namekian,the monster pierces the man he'd been dragging and appears to absorb him through his tail,leaving only the Man's clothing. This action sickens the Super Namekian. the Monster tells the Nameless Namekian that he's next and calls him by the name we all know him by - Piccolo.  

Meanwhile,Gine and the others sense multiple Ki from one area and get confused. The Ki that they sense are from - Kakarot,Krillin,Tien,Gohan,Gine,Vegeta,Piccolo,and King Cold. At Kame House,where the others have gathered,watch the news of whats happening and are horrified.

Krillin and Trunks decide to check things out,so they head toward Gingertown. Meanwhile,The Super Namekian and the Monster begin fighting. Piccolo has the advantage,but is surprised when the monster uses Piccolo's own Special Beam Canon technique on him.

The two exchange blows,and then the monster states that the Super Namekian only has the upper hand because he  has not yet reached his "perfect form." He then surprises everyone by powering up a Kamehameha and launching it point-blank. 

the Super Namekian barely dodges the quick and powerful attack. The Monster launches a surprise Masenko that his foe obliterating his arm. Sensing he has won,the monster states that his name is Cell and reveals that he is a Bio-Android from the future,created by Dr. Gero.

Cell explains that he was created from the cells of the greatest warriors - which include Goku's,Piccolo's,Vegeta's,King Cold's,Tien's,Krillin's,Gohan's,and Gine's -as a special project. And when Dr. Gero had passed on,he had his Computer continue his work. And after 24 years,he was finally born.

The Super Namekian asks how Gero got the DNA in the first place? Cell reveals that Dr. Gero had microbots all over the various battlefields to collect samples. Cell furthermore reveals that by absorbing Androids 17 and 18,he will achieve his "Perfect Form," making him "indestructible.". 

He knows this because it's in his "programming". Cell reveals that once he becomes Perfect,he will become the "Supreme Master of The Universe!!" and that "All Will Bow To Him in His Perfection!!". When asked why he traveled back to this Period. Cell reveals that in his own time,Trunks destroyed the androids. So he killed Trunks and stole his Time Machine,with hopes that the Androids would still be around in the past.

Having learned Cell's identity and intentions,The Super Namekian regenerates his arm and prepares to fight. At this point, Trunks and Krillin arrive, and Cell realizes he has no chance of winning. He surprises everyone by using Tien's Solar Flare technique to blind them,and then flees. Vegeta,Yamcha,and Tien soon arrive.

The Super Namekian - now preferring to go by his former name of Piccolo - explains everything he's learned. Meanwhile,Cell heads toward Nickytown to absorb more people,until his power exceeds that of the Androids.  

----------------------------------------------------------

Episode 59 - The Monster's Road To Perfection!


After Piccolo debriefs everyone on Cell's objective,Vegeta states that he intends to develop a power that surpasses even that of a Super Saiyan. Trunks and Krillin decide go to Dr. Gero's laboratory to destroy Cell in the present time. Once there they they discover a set of blueprints for Android 17. In hopes that the prints will allow Bulma and Dr. Briefs to uncover a weakness in the androids. They take the prints,and after destroying the developing Cell and the rest of the laboratory,they leave.

Trunks goes to find Vegeta while Krillin delivers the prints to Bulma. Back at the Son Residence,the Andoids search for Kakarot and Gine has come up empty. But it wasn't a total loss for 18,as she found a new outfit in the house.  

16 reveals that Kakarot is now located at Kame House on Kame Island. So the Androids go there.

Several days go by,during which Piccolo and the others are unable to locate Cell. However,back at the Kame House,Chi-Chi,Gine,and Master Roshi start hearing thunderous booms on the island and rush to the window to find a fully recovered Kakarot launching Kamehameha blasts into the horizon.

The 4 share a joyous moment before Kakarot turns serious and states that,While he'd probably fare a bit better against the Androids than Vegeta,Cell is much more powerful. And that it's Cell that worries him the most. Also like Vegeta,he states that he Can win against Cell once he reaches a level that's beyond Super Saiyan. And He knows just were to get that kind of training in a single day. Gine is interested in achieving this as well and she thinks she knows where Kakarot's referring too.

After hugging it out with Chi Chi and giving her a kiss,Kakarot uses his Instant Transmission ability to see his friends. Gine follows using her own Instant Transmission. Kakarot reunites with his friends in the Sky Van and tells them what he intends to do Next. He takes Gohan to where Trunks and Vegeta are. Gine follows.

Kakarot reveals to Vegeta and Trunks of a place where they can get a Years worth of training in a Single Day. Vegeta is interested,as is Trunks. Gine even convinces Vegeta to let Trunks train with him. Moments later,the Quintet of Saiyans arrive at Kami's Lookout,where the Hyperbolic Time Chamber is. 

The chamber only has a capacity of  3,so Gine allows Vegeta and Trunks to go in first. When Trunks and Vegeta step inside the chamber,all they see is a vast amount of nothingness. While this is going on, the Androids arrive at the Kame House and ask for Kakarot and Gine's whereabouts. Piccolo refuses to tell them. He challenges 17 to a fight on a Nearby Island.

After some banter,the fight begins. Piccolo overpowers 17 and tries to finish him off, but 17 manages to dodge the attack. Back at Kami's Lookout,Vegeta and Trunks are due to be coming out of the time chamber any minute now,which will reveal if it is possible to reach a level beyond Super Saiyan. 

Meanwhile,Bulma is hard at work trying to figure out Dr. Gero's Android 17 prints. Back on the island,Piccolo and Android 17 continue fighting each other. After #17 gets serious,it turns out that he and Piccolo are evenly matched.

Cell senses the two fighting and starts making his way towards them,stating that his power level is now higher than theirs. Krillin, and the others at Kame House,receive a call from Bulma saying that she has completed the switch to shut down the Androids and wants a Foot Massage for her efforts. Krillin tells Bulma that he'll think about massaging her feet and that he'll carry out the "Android Shut-Down" operation,as he wants to prove that he can be a hero too.

Bulma tells Krillin that she's on her way to Kami's Lookout to deliver some things and to meet her at half-way there. Krillin leaves to meet Bulma. Meanwhile,back at the battle,17 tells Piccolo that since his stamina and power level will never drop, he will be the victor of the battle.

However,Cell arrives at the scene,leaving Piccolo shocked. Meanwhile,Kakarot,Gine,and Gohan are still waiting for Vegeta and Trunks to come out of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

Dragon Ball - Legacy of Gine Vol. 9

Episode 50 - Pay Back Time For The Saiyans and Namekians Starts Now!

The Z-Fighters watch in horror as Vegeta is getting beat to death by Frieza. Suddenly,Kakarot and Gine arrive,much to the relief of Gohan and Krillin. Gine,despite never seeing this form of the Tyrant,she knows that it's him thanks to the familiar ki that she senses.

Frieza stops his assault on Vegeta and recognizes Gine as the wife of that "Radical Idiot" Bardock. Gine takes offence to that and tells Frieza that she's been waiting for this moment for a long long time. Frieza just laughs and tries to kill Gine and Kakarot,but they dodge his attacks and knock him back.

Seeing this,Vegeta realises that Both Kakarot and Gine have both become Super Saiyans and begins to laugh at Frieza's misfortune. Telling Frieza that his Worst Nightmare not only has come true,but has amplified - because Kakarot and Gine are Super Saiyans. 

This news shocks Frieza. Vegeta does some more taunting,but Frieza kills him for it. With his dying breath,he tells Kakarot and Gine that the only way to win this battle is for them to shed their gentleness and embrace their Super Saiyan nature. He reveals to them that Frieza is the one who destroyed Planet Vegeta. Gine already knows this and tells Vegeta to save his strength. 

Vegeta pleads with them to avenge the Saiyans,which he calls the "Greatest Race". With that,Vegeta dies. Kakarot thanks Vegeta for his help and gives him a small burial. Gine tells Kakarot to leave with the others,and that She will be handling Frieza. Kakarot argues,but Gine insists as a matter of principle. She wants to make Frieza pay for killing her Husband and her people.

Kakarot reluctantly allows this and joins the others,who watch the fight from afar. Gine powers up and attacks Frieza. The Barefooted Saiyan Woman gives it her all,but Frieza,feeling that a Saiyan Woman shouldn't warrant any additional strength,only uses 2% of his power.

The battle is even,so even that it annoys Frieza. Frieza powers up to 20% of his maximum power. The battle is now in Frieza's favor,but once Gine activates her 50x Kaioken,the fight becomes even again. Kakarot wants to fight,but realizes that respecting his mother's wishes is more important than battle lust.

Frieza grows tired of "these games" and tells Gine that it's time to finish her off. He powers up to 50% and brutalizes Gine. Kakarot jumps in and attacks Frieza. Frieza fights Kakarot as Gine recovers. Gine thinks it's time to test out the Spirit Bomb. So she gets into a stance.

As Gine is forming the Spirit Bomb,Kakarot is fighting Frieza using his x50 Kaioken and is winning. Frieza becomes frustrated and powers up again,this time to 70%. Kakarot is now at a disadvantage. Gine telepathically asks Krillin,Gohan,and Piccolo to lent her some of their energy for the Spirit Bomb.  

The heroes do that,but it's still not enough,so she focuses on drawing energy from Namek and it's neighboring worlds. She also draws energy from Namek's 3 suns. Gine eventually finishes the Spirit Bomb,a very huge one and throws it at Frieza. 

Frieza tries to block it,but the huge energy ball consumes him. The Spirit Bomb explodes destroying the island where Frieza and Kakarot were fighting. Gine and the others search for Kakarot,praying that he's alright. Kakarot emerges from the water,beat up,but still alive.

AS the heroes are ready to get Bulma and Chi Chi and head home,Frieza re-emerges and shoots a death beam at Gine,nearly killing her. Our heroes are shocked to see Frieza alive and in decent shape after being hit with Gine's Spirit Bomb.

Frieza tells Kakarot that the Spirit Bomb was quite a powerful move,but it's slowness allowed him to barely escape it. Kakarot,seeing his mother nearly dead,brings him grief and rage. Those emotion's amplify to the extreme when Frieza kills Gohan. This action causes Kakarot to become a Super Saiyan.

Piccolo,Krillin,and Frieza are shocked at Kakarot's new Transformation. Kakarot orders Piccolo and Krillin to take Gine,find Chi Chi and Bulma and leave,and that he'll join them later somehow. They try to argue,but Kakarot just snaps at them and just tells them to do it. 

With hesitation,Krillin and Piccolo leave with Gine. Kakarot turns his attention to Frieza,with intent on killing him.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 51 - Super Saiyan Kakarot's Revenge!!

Frieza doesn't understand what had just happened? He wants to know what this means? Kakarot attacks Frieza promising to end him for what he did to his mother and son. Frieza and Kakarot begin their battle,with Kakarot having the advantage.

Frieza is getting beat,so he powers up again,this time to 90% power,but even That's not enough to defeat Super Saiyan Kakarot. Frustrated beyond belief - not to mentioned badly beaten - Frieza generates a evil looking ball of energy.

Frieza goes on about how sometimes it's the smartest who wins and not the strongest. He then slams the ball into Namek's core,to Kakarot's shock. Despite fatally damaging the core,the ball was too weak to destroy the Planet outright. 

Eveyone on Namek starts to feel the effects of the dying world. Frieza tells Kakarot that even though his "Death Sphere" was too weak to destroy the Planet outright,it only has 1 Hour left to live. Kakarot thinks that 1 Hour Is plenty of time for him to kill him,gather his Friends,and return home.

Frieza powers up to 100% of his maximum and the fight continues. Frieza fares better against Kakarot this time. Meanwhile,Krillin and Piccolo return to Kakarot's ship and place Gine on a bed in Kakarot's Room. Piccolo tels Krillin to find Bulma and Chi Chi and that he'll watch over Gine. Krillin leaves. Piccolo tells Gine that she has earned his respect. Meanwhile,somewhere on Namek,Chi Chi and Bulma (both still barefoot,btw) are playing cards and are talking about Kakarot and Gine. 

Meanwhile,on King Kai's Planet,King Kai is informed by Kami on Earth that Mr. Popo has gathered all seven of Earth's Dragon Balls. Upon learning of the Earth's Dragon Balls' ability to resurrect multiple people with a single wish,King Kai asks that the Balls be used to resurrect all those who were killed by Frieza and his minions - including the Grand Elder,Guru.

Kami thought that Guru died of natural causes,but King Kai reveals that Guru died of a broken heart thanks to Frieza killing his people. He also reveals that with Guru back,the Namekian Dragon Balls will return as well. Then they can use that final unused wish to transport everyone from Namek to Earth,except for Frieza,leaving the Tyrant to die with the Planet. 

Kami thinks this is a very risky plain,but has faith in his superior. Kami relays the plan to Mr. Popo,who is about to summon Shenron. Mr. Popo then summons Shenron to fulfill King Kai's first wish. Shenron has some trouble doing this,but he eventually revives all who were killed by Frieza and his Minions. Gohan and Vegeta are included,as is the Grand Elder. 

The Namekian Dragon Balls suddenly reactivate. King Kai immediately contacts the Grand Elder and quickly informs him of the situation. The Grand Elder then sends Dende to Porunga in order to use the final wish to teleport everyone on Namek to Earth, except for Frieza. However, Kakarot,telepathically, requests to remain on Namek as well, so that he can finish Frieza once and for all.

King Kai objects,but Kakarot is insistent. King Kai relents and alters the Wish. Guru contacts Dende,who's nearest to the Balls to make the wish. As Dende is making his way to Porunge,Frieza sees the Dragon and quickly rushes to him,asking for Immortality. Dende arrives and asks Porunga to teleport everyone to Earth except for Frieza - in Namekian,of course.

Porunga grants the wish and teleports everyone to Earth except Kakarot and Frieza. The Dragon Balls and Porunga disappear as well,following their creator to Earth. Kakarot realizes that the wishes must be given in the Namekian Language. Pissed beyond pissed,Frieza rages and promises to make Kakarot's end as painful as possible.

Kakarot is ready for the Final Battle.

Episode 52 - Final Battle On The Vanishing Planet!!

Back on Earth,Bulma,Piccolo,Chi Chi,Vegeta,Gohan,Krillin,and the Namekian's are surprised to be on Earth. Dende heals Gine. Gine wonders where Kakarot is. Grand Elder Guru tells her that the Saiyan,Kakarot has elected to stay on their dying homeworld to end the evil warlord,Frieza.

Vegeta is pissed to learn that Kakarot has become a Super Saiyan and needs to become one too. Gine wants to help her Son and is about to go to Namek via Instant Transmission,but is talked out of it by Moori,a Namekian Elder.

Back on Namek,as the Planet is falling apart,Kakarot and Frieza continue their fight. Both seem to be equal,but the reality is,Kakarot's Super Saiyan Strength is slowly overwhelming the Icey Tyrant. Kakarot eventually gets the upper hand and beats Frieza up very badly. His ego shattered,his pride destroyed,and his body battered beyond belief,Frieza in a rage,launches his final attack at Kakarot - The Death Saucer. 

Kakarot,sees this and destroys the attack and fires a Super Kamehameha at Frieza,vaporizing him into nothing. King Kai tells Kakarot that he has 15 minutes left until Namek explodes. Kakarot hightails it back to his ship,avoiding falling mountains,rising waters,and magma geysers.

When he reaches his ship,he sees it being swallowed up by the Earth. Kakarot curses and heads back to Frieza's ship. Back on Earth,Gine,Krillin,Piccolo,Bulma,and Gohan are starting to worry about Kakarot. Meanwhile,Guru dies again,but before he does,he transfers his power to Elder Moori and makes him the Guardian of Namek and preserver of Namek's Dragon Balls.

Back on Namek,Kakarot attempts to use Frieza's ship to escape,but,thanks to Vegeta damaging the engine earlier,he can't. With only 5 minutes left,Kakarot searches for a way off Namek. He sees 5 Space Pods - pods that belonged to the Ginyu Force. Kakarot jumps into one of the Pods,randomly pushes a few buttons and jets off Namek. 

King Kai has seen it all and is relieved that Kakarot has escaped Namek,which soon explodes. However,His relief turns to worry when he sees that Kakarot is traveling aimlessly through space and that he can't do anything about it.

Following Namek's destruction,King Kai telepathically  informs Bulma and the others on Earth of Kakarot's current situation. Kakarot's friends and Family are horrified and pray for his safe journey home.

Vegeta asks Bulma if She knows someone who can Built him an adequate Space Ship,so that he can find Kakarot and learn how he became a Super Saiyan. Bulma tells him that she sure does and tells him that she'll take him to see her Dad later. 

Dende reveals that the Namekian Dragon Balls take 130 days to re-activate,which is almost equal to a Years time on Namek. Bulma is thrilled. Elder Moori asks Bulma if she knows a place that they could stay until they relocate to another world. Bulma knows just the place.

Hours later,Bulma and Dr. Brief take the Namekian's to the Brief Family's super sized Villa. It's big enough to hold 150 People and its secluded. Vegeta asks Dr. Brief if he has a Space Ship that he can use? Gine scolds Vegeta and tells him to be patient. Bulma thinks Vegeta's cute and tells him that if he wants he can stay with her family for a while. Vegeta declines.

130 days later, the Namekian Dragon Balls become re-active. The first wish is to bring Kakarot Home. Porunga tells them that he can't and that Kakarot is refusing to return home,but will at a later time. Vegeta demands Bulma give him a Space Ship,but Bulma tells him later.

Gine asks Dende to have Porunga revive Raditz,to everyones surprise. Porunga refuses and tells Gine that he can't revive anyone who's been dead for more than a Year's time. Gine is disapointed and even saddened a bit,after all Raditz was her First Born. Bulma asks Dende to have Porunga rebuild the City that the Saiyan's destroyed. Porunga does this and the City is restored. 

For the Next wish,Vegeta,demands Dende to tell Porunga to give him a space ship. Porunga grants the wish. After launching into space in his new ship to find Kakarot,the final wish is made - the revival of Yamcha. Puar is happy to have her master and friend back.

The quartet decide to move to somewhere safe.  

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 43 - Gine And Kakarot's Space Training!

It's been days since Bulma and Co. went to Namek and things were Not looking good. First they found out that Vegeta had recovered and is on Namek. Then they were attacked by 2 thugs,who destroyed their ship. Then they found out that some Super Strong Evil Guy (Frieza) is also on Namek - And has secured 5 of the Dragon Balls.

Back on Earth,Kakarot and Gine are talking about Namek,suddenly Master Roshi comes in and tells them that he just got a transmission from Bulma,but the news is dire. Roshi tells them everything that Bulma has told them. Upon hearing this,Gine and Kakarot are shocked and Need to go Namek to help everyone.

Thankfully for them,Yajirobe arrives with a fresh bag of Senzu Beans. He gives one to Kakarot and the Saiyan busts out of his cast. The fully healed Kakarot changes into his Gi and thanks Yajirobe. Gine takes the Senzu Beans and thanks him as well.

Master Roshi asks how Gine and Kakarot will be getting to Namek? Gine tells him that Dr. Brief had converted Kakarot's space pod into an awesome spaceship. Kakarot can't wait to get to Namek. After saying good-byes,Gine and Kakarot fly off to Capsule Corp.  

Once at Capsule Corp, the Saiyans meet Dr. Brief,who's just finished their ship. The Ship is a slightly bigger version of the one Bulma and Co. used,but this one has "Capsule Corp. 1" on it. He gives them a small tour of it and tells them how to use the Gravity Machine,a feature that both Kakarot and Gine requested.

And according to Dr. Brief,the Mother/Son duo will be on Namek within 5 days. Gine and Kakarot are happy and leave for Namek immediately. Once in space,Gine pulls off her shoes and stretches her cute unpainted toes,relieved to have her feet free. This gives Kakarot a laugh and asks his mom if she's ready to train? Gine tells him that she is. 

Meanwhile,on Namek,Gohan and Krillin managed to save a small Namekian child,named Dende,from Frieza's minions. Bulma and Chi Chi give them some hope when they reveal that Kakarot and Gine will be arriving on Namek in 5 days. News they got from Dr. Brief. 

As this is going on,Vegeta has fought and Killed Dadoria,he then attacks a Namekian village,kills everyone,and steals their Dragon Ball (the 4-star ball). He then hides the Ball from Frieza's men in a near by lake. Seeing that the situation is dire,Dende takes Krillin and Chi Chi to see the World's Guardian and Great Elder,Guru. Gohan stays behind to protect Bulma (and to rub her pretty feet,when she asks).

Back on the Ship,Gine and Kakarot are training at 50% Gravity and are doing great. They get a telepathic transmission from King Kai,telling them that Yamcha,Tien,Chiaotzu,and Piccolo have all made it to his place and will be training them for a bit.

Kakarot and Gine tells King Kai about their mission to Namek and how there will be strong and deadly enemies waiting for them. King Kai checks the Nemekian Landscape and gets scared. In a panic,he tells them that once they arrive on Namek,to grab their friends and leave,because Frieza is there.

Upon hearing Frieza's name,Gine grows angry. King Kai explains that FRieza is the most dangerous and most powerful warlord in the Universe and that their chances of victory against him are slim-to-none. And to make things worse,Frieza already has 5 of the Dragon Balls.

Gine tells King Kai that Frieza's as good as Dead. And that She and Kakarot are training for Him and Everything the "Little Bastard" has. King Kai doubts that any amount of training will be satisfactory against Frieza,but wishes them luck anyway.

Gine tells Kakarot that it's finally time to bring Justice for the Saiyans,because they are going to kill Frieza,the one responsible for their Planet's genocide. Kakarot remembers Gine talking about him when he was Younger,as well as his Father talking about the tyrant. 

Gine is done talking and continues to train. Kakarot follows. Back on Namek,Vegeta fights Zarbon and loses when the pretty boy turns into a massive beast. Upon hearing that Vegeta may have found a Dragon Ball,Frieza has Zarbon fetch him for interrogation.  .

Meanwhile,Dende,Krillin,and Chi Chi arrive at Guru's place,where they meet Guru and his Son,Nail (who looks like Piccolo). After telling their story,Guru realizes that the Earth's Dragon Balls were created by the Child of his Brother Katas,who escaped Namek during the a horrible and deadly storm. But questions how Katas' powerful son would die in a fight with a Saiyan - unless that Saiyan was a Super Saiyan.

Krillin reveals Kami and Piccolo's backstory,a backstory Kami told him a while ago. Guru is shocked that a Namekian would divide himself into 2 to resolve an internal conflict and as a result,his power was split between the 2 beings.

Guru then gives Chi Chi and Krillin his 1-Star Dragon Ball and unlocks their hidden potential.

Chi Chi and Krillin leave to tell Bulma and Gohan. Meanwhile,Vegeta has been taken to Frieza's ship for recovery,so that he can be properly interrogated. This backfires,as immediately after recovering,Vegeta terrorizes the ship,outsmarts Frieza and Zarbon and steals the Dragon Balls by throwing them through the window of Frieza's quarters.

After that,the Saiyan Prince stealthfully makes his escape. Meanwhile,Bulma picks up a lone Dragon Ball on her Dragon Radar and Gohan leaves to retrieve it. It's the one that Vegeta hid. Speaking of,the Dragon Balls that Vegeta stole from Frieza have all landed on a single island. 

Back in space,Gine and Kakarot continue their training,sparring with each other in 60x Gravity.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 44 - Go,Go,Ginyu Force! Mighty Militant Ginyu Force!

Vegeta sees Krillin and Chi Chi with the last Dragon Ball he needs and pursues them. He confronts and threatens them,but is soon confronted by Zarbon. After killing the pretty boy,Vegeta demands them to hand over the ball. 

Krillin,seeing that they have no chance against the Saiyan Prince,yet,give Vegeta the Ball. Vegeta decides to spare them and leaves to collect the Ball that he hid. He gets a tongue-lashing from Chi Chi and Bulma for this. But there's still some hope,Gohan has found the Dragon Ball that Vegeta hid.

Meanwhile,sick of the incompetence of his flunkies,Frieza has summoned his special task force to Namek,the Mighty Militant Ginyu Force. The Ginyu Force is stated for arrival in just 3 days. 

Back in space,Gine has mastered the x50 Kaioken and Kakarot has mastered the x20. They now feel that they are ready for 90x Gravity. Gine masters the art of shooting energy blasts through her bare feet and has created the "Feet Super Kamehameha".

Meanwhile,Gohan has got Vegeta's Dragon Ball and Vegeta is pissed. Chi Chi and Krillin take Gohan to see Guru to get his power unlocked,while leaving the Dragon Ball with Bulma. Vegeta sees them and follows.

As Gohan is getting his hidden power unlocked,Chi Chi and Krillin have a face-off with Vegeta. Vegeta senses Gohan's new power and heads to him,with the intention of killing the boy for stealing his Dragon Ball. 

Gohan and Nail come out to confront Vegeta. Krillin and Chi Chi arrive as well. Guru tells Dende that 5 malicious "Souls" are headed toward Namek. Dende leaves to warn everyone. Vegeta realizes that Frieza has summoned his Ginyu Force. Vegeta tells the heroes that the only way to win is to have the Dragon Balls grant him Immortality. 

Our heroes hate the idea,but Nail reveals that the Dragon Balls of Namek can grant 3 wishes. The heroes reluctantly decide to go with Vegeta's plan and join forces with him. They take the 4-Star Dragon Ball from Bulma and head off to where Vegeta's Dragon Balls are.

Meanwhile,Gine and Kakarot are training at 100x Gravity. Kakarot has mastered the 50x Kaioken. As this is going on,The Ginyu Force has arrived and after some instructions - Retrieve The Dragon Balls and Bring Him Vegeta's corpse - The Ginyu leave for their mission.

Long story short,the Ginyu Force meet up with our Heroes and Vegeta. And after Guldo and Burter steal the 2 Balls that Vegeta and Krillin were holding,Captain Ginyu takes all 7 to Frieza. The fight for survival begins. Guldo is up first and is obliterated by a Double Super Kamehameha/Masenko combo by Krillin,Chi Chi and Gohan.

Recoome is up next and is assaulted by Vegeta, However the big Brute is unfazed and lost only took a small amount of damage. Recoome counter attacks with a brutal assault on the Saiyan Prince. Back in space,the Training is complete and Kakarot and Gine are eating a big lunch. After that they get cleaned up,get dressed in fresh new Gi's,and await their arrival on Namek.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 45 - Kakarot and Gine on Namek!

Vegeta had been beaten up terribly by Recoome. Chi Chi and Krillin as well. Gohan,enraged at his mother and friends brutal beat-downs,manages to do damage to Raccome. However,Recoome can take way more punishment that what Gohan was dishing out and eventually beats him up and breaks his neck.

Meanwhile,Frieza is having a hard time activating the Dragon Balls and deduces that there is a Password involved. So he leaves to find the some Namekians to get it from them. All while,Captain Ginyu watches over the Dragon Balls.

Gine and Kakarot's ship finally arrives and the 2 Saiyans rush toward the battlefield. Pissed at what Recoome has done to her Family and Friend,beats the hell out of Recoome and breaks his neck with a kick. The Barefooted Saiyan Woman then goes after Burter and Jiece and beats them down too.

Vegeta is shocked on how powerful Gine has become and wonders if she has become a Super Saiyan. Kakarot gives Gohan,Krillin,and Chi Chi Senzu Beans. Chi Chi and Krillin tell Kakarot and Gine everything. Gine gives Vegeta a Senzu Bean. Krillin and Chi Chi question this,but Gine argues that even though Vegeta and his family sold out the Saiyans to Frieza,she believes that there's good in everyone - even Prince Vegeta. Plus they may need his help against Frieza.

Meanwhile,Captain Ginyu tries to contact the Ginyu Force for a status report,but fails. He then tries to detect their Power levels using his scouter,but doesn't recognize any of the powers levels present. He realizes that something's wrong and after telling the Grunts to bury the Dragon Balls,just in case,he leaves to check on his men.

Back at the battlefield Vegeta kills the 3 Ginyu Force Members and blasts Gine for her softness and tells her that she'll never be a True Super Saiyan. Gine tells Vegeta that she isn't focused on becoming one,she's only interest in killing Frieza - though admits that being a Super Saiyan would help.

Vegeta tells Gine that No one can win against Frieza now that he's immortal,thanks to the Dragon Balls. Krillin counters this by telling Vegeta that he doubts Frieza has used them yet. He explains that on Earth when you call the Dragon,all kinds of crazy stuff happens such as a blackened sky,wild thunder and lighting,and a very loud Dragon's roar that could be heard for at least 5.9 million miles.

Kakarot deduces that the Namekian Dragon Balls must use some sort of "Password" system,unlike the ones on Earth. Chi Chi is happy that there's still a chance to revive everyone. Vegeta rains on everyones parade by telling the heroes that Captain Ginyu,leader of the Ginyu Force and Frieza's #2,is headed here now.

Kakarot senses Frieza on the move far away from his ship. Gohan realizes that with Both Ginyu and Frieza away from the ship,the Dragon Balls are unguarded. Kakarot tells Gine,Chi Chi,Krillin and Gohan to find Bulma and get the Dragon Radar. Once Captain Ginyu arrives,the heroes leave for Bulma's area. Gine wishes her son luck and warns him about Captain Ginyu's Body-Change ability. Vegeta just bolts.

After a brief introduction sequence,the fight begins. Meanwhile,Vegeta is plotting on his way to Frieza's ship. He plans on letting the "Goody-Goods" summon the Dragon for him,then he will kill them all and steal their wishes.

Meanwhile,Guru,The Grand Elder senses that in a few short hours the evil Frieza will be at their Doorstep and requests for Dende to help the Earthlings summon Porunga,the Namekian Eternal Dragon. He unlocks a new ability within Dende - the Power of Healing. 

Dende quickly leaves. Gine and Co. arrive where Bulma is and ask for the Dragon Radar. She gives it to them. Krillin promises her a foot massage later to make up for leaving her. Gine wants one too,as does Chi Chi. Krillin tells them he'll think about it. 

After a small chat,Gine,Gohan,and Krillin leave for Frieza's ship. Chi Chi decides to stay with Bulma to keep her company. Back on the battlefield,Ginyu and Kakarot are in a heated battle. But they Ginyu is curious on how strong Kakarot truly is? 

Kakarot obliges,but as to not be a show off,he only powers up to 70% (sans kaioken). Ginyu is shocked to find out that at 70%,Kakarot's Power level is 190,000 (surpassing his own maximum power level of 120,000).

Ginyu realizes that Kakarot is a Super Saiyan and freaks out. Kakarot tells Ginyu that there's no need to fear him and that if he apologizes for the Ginyu Forces evil and leaves peacefully,he'll be spared.

Captain Ginyu questions this,but Kakarot means every word. Ginyu realizes that Kakarot is not a true Super Saiyan,because he lacks the killer instinct. He shakes off the fear and regains his composure and continues the fight.

Ginyu is beaten. He turns on some crocodile tears and begs Kakarot to spare him. Kakarot doesn't believe Ginyu's tears,but will spare him anyway. Just as Kakarot is about to leave,Ginyu uses his "Body Change" ability on his foe. The attack catches Kakarot by surprise and now...Kakarot is Ginyu and Ginyu is Kakarot.

Ginyu (in Kakarot's body) mocks Kakarot (in Ginyu's body) for being soft and lame,but promises to use his power well. He then leaves laughing evilly. Kakarot can't believe what has happened to him and that he must warn the others.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 46 - The Mighty Monkey Man Is The Mighty Militant and The Mighty Militant Is The Mighty Monkey Man!

Vegeta arrives at Frieza's ship and after killing the remaining grunts,he goes inside to wash up and get new armor. All he has to do now is wait for the "Goody-Goods" to arrive and use the Dragon Balls. Then he will kill them and steal their wishes.

Gine,Krillin,and Gohan arrive at Frieza's ship and find that the Balls are buried. They dig them up and try to summon the Dragon using as many "Passwords" and "Chants" that they can come up with. Vegeta,watching from afar,grows very annoyed. 

Suddenly Kakarot arrives and sees that the Dragon Balls have been dug up. Krillin tells Kakarot that they need help coming up with a password for the Dragon Balls and asks him to come up with some. Gine and Gohan sense that something's amiss. Gine realizes that Ginyu has used his Body Change on her son and warns Krillin that Ginyu has taken over Kakarot's body. Vegeta can't believe this.

Upset that his surprise is ruined,Ginyu (in kakarot's body) goes on the attack,but is shocked to see that his attacks aren't as powerful as he had hoped. Kakarot (in ginyu's body) arrives and warns everyone that Captain Ginyu has taken over his body and needs help getting it back. Ginyu just mocks Kakarot and powers up,but still his strength isn't as great as he had hoped.

Kakarot tells Ginyu that the reason why he's having trouble with his body,is because when he swapped bodies with him,he only managed to swap their minds and that the heart and soul still remain. So Ginyu's Mind and Kakarot's Heart and Soul are totally incompatible.

Ginyu is pissed. Meanwhile,Frieza has arrived at Guru's Place,where he is confronted by Nail. Frieza introduces himself and wants to know how to use the Dragon Balls. But,Nail tells Frieza that he doesn't aid Tyrants and Terrorists. Frieza takes great offense to those remarks and demands to know how the Dragon Balls work,before he loses both his patience And his temper.  

Guru telepathically tells Nail to by Dende time to reach the Earthlings by facing Frieza. Nail agrees and challenges Frieza to a fight on a Nearby island and that if he wins,he'll reveal all that the Tyrant wants to know about the Dragon Balls.

Frieza and Nail arrive and Nail powers up. His power level,according to Frieza's scouter,is 55,000. But Frieza boasts that his power level is 300,000 minimum and in this form alone. He reveals that his maximum power in his current form is approximately 600,000+. He also reveals that he learned how to conceal his power at will via his day-long training session.

Note: You Read Correctly,Frieza actually trained in this Universe during the Z-Era AND He knows how to raise and lower his power at will. Sure he only trained for a single day,but Frieza is much stronger than he was in canon. And,keep in mind that,until the Super-Era,Frieza has never trained a day in his life.  

Back at Frieza's ship,Ginyu is taking a beating,but sees Vegeta watching and realizes that Vegeta's heart is similar to his,so he decides to take Vegeta's body. Ginyu challenges Vegeta to a "Knockdown Dragout",the Saiyan Prince obliges.

Ginyu is beat up badly and is about to change bodies with Vegeta,but Kakarot sees what the Ginyu Force Leader is trying to do and gets in the way of the Body Change Beam. This action returns both Ginyu and Kakarot to their original bodies.

Ginyu attacks Vegeta and gets beat badly.He tries his Body Change again,but this time,Gohan was ready for it and tosses a Namekian Frog in the way of the Beam,resulting in Ginyu's mind being in the body of a Frog and vice versa. And like that,The Entire Ginyu Force has been defeated.

Vegeta mocks Kakarot's battered state,but makes a truce with the "Goody-Goods" until Frieza is dealt with. He then takes our heroes into the ship to get healed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 47 - The Ultimate Warlord's Ultimate Wrath!

Vegeta places Kakarot inside a rejuvenation chamber inside of Frieza's ship. He tells them that judging by Kakarot's height and weight,the healing process should take about an hour. He then decides to give Gohan,Krillin,and Gine new Armor. The heroes change into the armor. While Gohan and Krillin's armor look like the same ones in official canon. Gine's armor is a Lady-sized version of Raditz'. And of course,Gine forgoes the boots.

Vegeta questions why Gine must be barefoot? Gine tells him that it helps her fight more efficiently and that she's comfortable like this. Vegeta just scoffs and tells her to do as she pleases.  Krillin leaves to search for Dende,as he may know the Password to use the Dragon Balls. Gine is gonna stay by her Son's side during his recovery. Vegeta tells Gohan to guard the Dragon Balls and be a look-out for Frieza.

Vegeta decides to take a nap. Meanwhile,Krillin has found Dende. Dende reveals that Guru has given him the appropriate incantation to activate the Dragon Balls and that it's in the Namekian Language. The 2 head back to Frieza's ship.

Frieza continues his domination over Nail. The tyrant is getting pissed,tired of being denied what he wants. He demands Nail to tell him how to activate the Dragon Balls. Nail curses the tyrant out in Namekian. Frieza demands to know what Nail has just said and tells him to stop talking "gibberish".

Realizing that Frieza is unable to speak Namekian and sensing that Dende has made it to where the Dragon Balls are,he tells Frieza that the Password is Porunga,but that even with it,he Still won't get his wish. He also adds that his nephew Dende has already delivered the password to the Heroic Earthlings.

A Pissed off Frieza beats on Nail some more,this time to near death. He then leavers for his ship. Frieza contacts the Ginyu Force,but fails. Frieza's pisstivity level is greater than it's ever been. back at the ship,as Vegeta is napping,Krillin,Gohan,and Dende move the Dragon Balls to a nearby island to make their Wishes - behind the Saiyan Prince's back.

Dende summons Porunga,the Namekian Eternal Dragon.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 48 - The Wrath Of Frieza and The Resurrection Of Piccolo!

Our heroes are in Awe at the sight of this huge creature. Dende reveals that all wishes must be made in Namek,so if you don't speak Namek,you can't use the Dragon Balls. Porunga asks what their wishes are?

Gine senses and sees the Dragon out from a window and is happy that their wishes are gonna come true. Krillin asks Dende to revive everyone killed by The Saiyans. Dende translates the wish to Porunga,but Porunga tells them that their Wish is unacceptable,because the Guardian of Namek,Guru created him,and resurrecting multiple people with a single wish,exceeds Guru's power.

Our heroes are upset about it. King Kai,watching events from Otherworld,is also annoyed. Piccolo vulonteers to be revived first. Everyone agrees with this,as if Piccolo is revived,than Kami will be too,and the Earth's Dragon Balls will return.

Piccolo contacts Gohan telepathically via King Kai. He tells Gohan to use the 1st Wish to revive him,and explains that with him revived,Kami and Earth's Dragon Balls will comeback. He then tells Gohan that for the 2nd Wish,he wants to be brought to Namek,as he wants to take on Frieza himself and make him suffer for killing so many Namekians.

King Kai objects to that 2nd wish,but Piccolo doesn't care. Gohan asks Dende to have Porunga revive Piccolo. Dende makes the wish and Piccolo is alive again. They then make the 2nd wish to brig Piccolo to Namek. Unfortunatly,the heroes weren't specific with Where on Namek they wanted him,so Piccolo is brought to an island far way from the Ship.

Vegeta awakens and sees the Dragon. He realizes that he's being tricked and rushes out to confront the Earthlings,too angry to sense that FRieza is coming. Frieza sees the Dragon too and is Beyond pissed. He vows to make Everyone who's crossing him suffer a "Zillion Hells".

Vegeta confronts the heroes and treatens to kill them for going behind his back. Gohan tells Vegeta that there is 1 wish left and that it's his. Suddenly,Frieza's energy can be felt by everyone. Having no choice,Krillin has Dende grant Vegeta's wish for Immortality.

But,before the wish could be made,Porunga starts to vanish and the Dragon Balls become stone. Dende realized what has just happened and begins weeping. Guru,the Grand Elder,Guardian of Namek,and Creator of Namek's Dragon Balls - has just died.

No time for tears or mourning,however,as Frieza appears before them. Frieza is pretty angry that they robbed him of his dream of immortality. Frieza and Vegeta get into a verbal brawl,which leads to an actual one. 

Frieza is impressed at Vegeta's strength and powers up to 100% - in his current form. Vegeta starts having some issues,but Gohan and Krillin jump in. Gine senses Frieza's power and is antios to settle things with him,but has to make sure her Son,Kakarot,makes a full recovery first.

Frieza nearly manages to beat the trio. Frieza is shocked to see that 2 Earthlings and "Saiyan Monkey" could give him this much trouble. Vegeta tells FRieza to transform if he's having issues. Frieza is surprised Vegeta knows his secret and admits that he uses lesser forms to fully surpress his "Devestating Power",which even He has trouble controlling.

After thinking it over,Frieza decides to do it. As Frieza is transforming,Piccolo comes across Nail. Nail convinses Piccolo to fuse with him,as it will be Piccolo's only chance right now to defeat Frieza. Piccolo,now with extra power due to the fusion,rushes off to the battle.

Frieza has finished transforming and reveals that his current power level in this form is over a million - at minimum. This shocks Vegeta and Gohan,but frightens Krillin and Dende. Frieza then decides to scare them by revealing that his maximim power in this current form is 2 Million+.

Gine senses Frieza's power,as does Kakarot. But they both can't do antyhing about it yet. Gine picks up another presence - a benevolent one that is just as strong as Frieza. Back at the battlefeild,Frieza impales Gohan with one of his horns and then tosses him into the aside. He then is attacked by Krillin and Vegeta.

While this is going on,Dende heals Gohan. Frieza sees this and tries to kill the Namekian child for interfering,but Piccolo shows up and challenges Frieza.

Episode 49 - The Warlord's True Power Is Unleased!

DEnde is surprised and happy that Piccolo is a Namekian. Piccolo fights Frieza and is an almost one sided fight in Piccolo's favor. But after Frieza powers up to his max,the battle becomes even. Gohan jumps in and turns the tide a bit,thanks to the Zenkai boost he recieved after being healed.

Frieza has had enough and transforms yet again,to the horror of his enemies. Frieza's new form was grotesque,but super powerful with a power level of 4 Million+ minimum. Vegeta,having seen Dende heal Gohan,comes up with a risky plan. He tells Krillin to criticaly injure Him,so that when the "Namekian Brat" heals him,he'd get a Zenzai Boost.

Krillin doesn't know what that is,so Vegeta explains that when a Saiyan is healed from a great wound,they recieve a Zenkai Boost that makes them stronger than they once were. Krillin refuses,but after seeing Piccolo getting defeated by Frieza and Gohan struggling against the tyrant,he changes his mind. Krillin fires a big blast through Vegeta's torso.

Gohan is shocked by this. Frieza is amused and since he has regained his good mood,he decides to give everyone a special treat - Death At The Hands Of His True Form! As Frieza is transforming,Dende heals Piccolo. Krillin and Gohan meet up with the 2 Namekian's and explain what Vegeta had told him about "Zenkai Boosts".

Vegeta,bleeding,comes by and tells Dende to heal him. Dende refuses,telling Vegeta that he's as guilty of murdering his people,as Frieza is. After some convincing from Piccolo,Dende heals Vegeta. Frieza finishes his transformation and imediatly kills Dende with his Death Beam.

Outr Heroes attack Frieza,but are no match for the Tyrant's speed. Vegeta tries his luck and has a better time,but,despite the Zenkai Boost,is still no match for Frieza and is beaten up badly. Meanwhile,Kakarot is finally healed and both He and Gine head to the battlefeild.

Dragon Ball - Legacy of Gine Vol. 7

Note: Characters Power Levels are a bit higher in this Universe. (Ex. Raditz now has a power level of 2,300. while Kakarot has a power level of 450. and Gine has a power level of 1,400.) 

========================================================

Episode 33 - Heeerrre's Raditz!!!!!

5 years have passed since Piccolo was defeated and Gine is living out a peaceful life with her Son and his family. Gine (wearing a green and pink version of her son's gi,but barefoot),Kakarot and her new grandson,Gohan are on their way to Master Roshi's place for a reunion.

However,peace is about to be shattered,when a pod-like space ship crash lands on earth. A nearby farmer,goes to investigate. A wild-haired man,named Raditz,exits the ship and is perturbed at the fact that "they've failed" when he is confronted by the farmer.

Raditz kills the farmer and soon the device on his face (the scouter) detects a strong power. Raditz leaves to investigate,believing it to be one of the ones that he seeks. He runs into Piccolo,who is shocked at Raditz's power. After an altercation,which leaves the Namekian reeling,Raditz picks up 2 even stronger powers,which he knows belongs to the ones that he seeks.

Gine,Kakarot,and Gohan arrive at Kame House,where they meet Master Roshi,Bulma,and Krillin. Kakarot introduces Gohan to everyone. Bulma (who is barefoot at the moment,with pretty pink pedicure),notices that Gohan has a tail.

Gine explains that since Gohan is part-Saiyan,he was born with it. And that they wanted to remove it,Chi Chi objected,despite being warned about the Oozaru transformation. And that as a remedy,Chi Chi has Gohan go to bed early.     

Note: It happened off-screen,but Gine has told all of their friends about Her and Kakarot's origins.      

Kakarot reveals that he,Gine,and Chi Chi have been keeping up with their training. He also mentions that Gohan has potential,but Chi Chi doesn't want Gohan to get into Martial Arts and wants him to be either a scientist or a scholar instead. 

Bulma also notices the 4-Star Dragon Ball on Gohan's hat. Kakarot reveals that he and Gine have been collecting them for fun and have the 1-Star and 7-Star Balls back home. 

Suddenly,Raditz arrives. Raditz sees Gine and tells her that it's been a while. Gine instantly recognizes Raditz and asks what he's doing here? Raditz tells Gine that he's here to talk to Her And Kakarot about their piss-poor "Job Performance".

When everyone is wondering who the man is and what he's talking about. Gine introduces everyone to Raditz,a Saiyan Warrior,her eldest Son,and Kakarot's brother. This shocks Bulma,Roshi,and Krilin. This revelation surprises Kakarot. Raditz berates his mother and brother for failing on their mission to exterminate everyone on this planet. 

Gine and Kakarot are disgusted by the idea and Gine explains to Raditz that she refused her mission because genocide and grand theft are wrong and wanted to raise Kakarot to be good. Raditz has always been sickened by his mother's attitude and berates her for it. However,he gets pissed when he sees that both Gine and Kakarot lack their tails.

Gine explains that She had them removed a long time ago,because she wanted her and Kakarot to live in peace,without worrying about transforming at the sight of the full-moon. Raditz blasts them for doing this. Kakarot wants to know what Raditz wants? Raditz reveals that,besides judging them on their "Earthling Extinction/Planetary Take-Over" Job Performance,he also has come to recruit them for a job. 

Raditz reveals that when the Saiyan homeworld,Planet Vegeta,was destroyed by a Super Nova,a few Saiyan's managed to survive and that He is working with 2 of those survivors - the Prince and his General.

Raditz tells them that He and his 2 Saiyan allies are part of a "Planet Trade" Organization,which goes to other planets,either enslaving or killing it's inhabitants,and preparing the World to be sold to other races. Gine has always hated the Planet Trade Organization and refuses to work for them.

Kakarot also refuses. Raditz notices Gohan and the fact that he has a tail. He asks Kakarot if the boy is His? Kakarot tells him that he is and to leave Gohan out of this. Raditz tells him "Too Bad" and that if Kakarot and Gine aren't "Gung-Ho" about the job,then he'll make them "Gung-Ho" by holding the boy hostage. 

Gine warns Raditz if he dares to even touch Gohan,he'll regret it. Raditz knocks Gine out with a chop,prompting Kakarot to attack. Raditz defeats Kakarot and kidnaps a frightened Gohan. Raditz tells Kakarot that he and Gine have 24 Earth Hours to reconsider his "Humble Request". Should they refuse - the Boy dies!

Raditz escapes with the frightened Gohan,leaving everyone helpless and in horror. Bulma checks on Gine and reveals that She will be alright. Kakarot wants to make Raditz pay,but will need help. Piccolo makes a surprise appearance and offers his assistance. Piccolo wants to rule the World,but can't as long as Raditz is alive,but he can't beat him alone.

Kakarot chastises Piccolo for his life goals,but agrees to team-up with him - at least,until Raditz is dealt with. And so an alliance between rivals was made.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 34 - Gine Joins The Battle. 

A few minutes after Piccolo and Kakarot leave to confront Raditz,Gine regains consciousness,but falls down once she stands back up. Gine sits down until she regains her composure. She asks what happened and Roshi tells her. 

After Gine regains her composure,she leaves for the battle. When she finally arrives,she sees that Kakarot and Piccolo are struggling. Kakarot is down and Piccolo is charging up an attack. Raditz sees his mother and warns her not to interfere. Gine searches for Gohan and finds him in Raditz ship.

However,before she could attempt a rescue,Gine is attacked and beaten by Raditz,to the horror of Kakarot. Kakarot gets up and grabs Raditz tail,weakening him. But,Raditz makes Kakarot lose his grip. Raditz,regains his strength and beats on Kakarot. Gine jumps in for the save. Gine and Raditz fight,but Gine is eventually defeated.   

Things are looking bleak,but suddenly,a very angry Gohan bursts out of Raditz' pod and powers up,shocking everyone. Gohan,wanting to save his Dad and Grandma attacks Raditz with a flying head-but and breaks off his armor. Exhausted of power,Gohan is now unconscious.    

Kakarot swiftly grabs Raditz from behind and tells Piccolo to fire his attack. Raditz calls Kakarot a fool and asks how he expects to dodge the attach,while holding him in place? Kakarot reveals that he doesn't and that he's gonna sacrifice himself to protect this World. Raditz calls Kakarot stupid. GIne tries to talk him out of it. Piccolo doesn't mind this,though,as this situation convenient for him.

Gine,too weak to do much,watches in horror as Piccolo fires his corkscrew beam,the Special Beam Cannon,through the chests of both of her Sons. Kakarot releases his grip and falls back. Raditz falls forward - both men with bloody holes in their chests.

Piccolo is relieved that it's over. A dying Raditz,blasts Kakarot for his decision,but Piccolo reveals to him that Kakarot will be brought back to life soon,while the the evil Saiyan will suffer in hell for eternity.

Raditz wants to know how it's possible? Piccolo tells him about the Dragon Balls. Raditz is pleased and tells Piccolo that his 2 Saiyan Allies have heard the conversation though the Scouters and will come to Earth to get a wish. Gine asks when the 2 will arrive? Raditz tells her that Prince Vegeta and General Nappa will arrive in about one earth year. 

Before dying,Raditz reminds everyone that his allies are much stronger and much more skilled then he is. Suddenly,Master Roshi,Krillin,and Bulma arrive in Bulma's craft. Meanwhile,on a desolate planet,Prince Vegeta and General Nappa decide to visit Earth to use the Dragon Balls to gain Immortality. They leave for the year-long journey in their space pods.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 35 - Preparing For The Saiyan Invasion.

Piccolo informs Master Roshi of what happened,while Gine,Bulma,and Krillin mourn the death of Kakarot. Gine soon goes over to check up on Gohan,who,to much of her relief,is alright. Kakarot says his final good-byes to his friends and mother,before disappearing. Gine also disappears. Piccolo reveals that this was Kami's doing and that the Guardian of Earth must have something special in mind for Kakarot and Gine.

Everyone is relieved and is ready to go home,but Piccolo has a demand - he wants to take Gohan away for some special training,because earlier the boy showed signs that he might be the most powerful on this planet and that they will need all the help they can get to defeat the upcoming Saiyan Menace.

Kakarot's friends object,but Piccolo just takes the kid anyway. He also threatens to kill them all violently,should they decide to be heroes and attempt a rescue. Piccolo flies away with Gohan. 

Meanwhile,in the Otherworld,Gine and a dead Kakarot are standing with Kami in front of a Giant Man,sitting at a Giant Desk. This guy is King Yemma,the Ruler of Otherworld and Judge of the Dead. Kami tries to convince King Yemma to let Kakarot and Gine seek training from King Kai.

Gine feels honored to be chosen to train with a Kai and thanks Kami for choosing her. Kami tells her that they will need all the help against the Saiyans that they can get. After thinking it over,King Yemma decides to allow both Gine and Kakarot to journey down Snake Way to meet King Kai.  Both Saiyans are excited. Yemma tells them to wait outside and that a guide will take them to Snake Way in a few minutes. Gine and Kakarot thank King Yemma and leave.

Meanwhile,Piccolo has taken Gohan to an open area in the wild with the intent on training him. The first part of Gohan's training is wilderness survival. Gohan doesn't want to do it,but Piccolo leaves him no choice. And so,Gohan's training begins. Piccolo eventually takes some pity on the boy and secretly gives him apples.

Later that night,Gohan looks at the full moon and transforms into an Oozaru. Piccolo then remembers what Gine said about Saiyan transformations,so he destroys the moon and removes Gohan's tail when the boy transforms back. 

Piccolo gives Gohan a new outfit and a sword. He then tells the kid that after 6-months of wilderness training,he'll teach him how to fight - the hard way. He then leaves the boy to his wilderness training.

The next day,Yajirobe visits Kame House with an invite to train at Kami's and to bring Tien,Yamcha,and Chiaotzu with him. He also tells them that,according to Korin,Kakarot and Gine are gonna be training in the Otherworld and to Not wish them back until the Saiyan's arrive.

After Yajirobe leaves,Chi Chi arrives and asks where Gohan,Kakarot,and Gohan are? 

She is told everything by Roshi. Chi Chi decides to train hard,so that she can defeat Piccolo and get her son back and that she'll worry about the Saiyans later. Roshi likes her initiative.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 36 - Special Training Against The Saiyan Threat..

As Kakarot and Gine are traveling Snake Way,Gine laments on how She couldn't save Raditz. Kakarot assures her that there was nothing that she could've done and that killing Raditz was the only way to stop him. Butpromises to revive him with the Dragon Balls if she wants. Gine would like that.

The 2 Saiyans continue there journey. Back on Earth,Kami has gathered Earth's Strongest fighters - Krillin,Yamcha,Tien,Chiaotzu,and Yajirobe or special training against the incoming Saiyan Invaders.

Meanwhile,Gohan is slowly mastering his Wilderness survival training. Piccolo,watching from a far,is pleased.Chi Chi is doing her own training. Chi Chi is wearing a purple version of Kakarot's outfit,but with one omission - footwear. Yes,Chi Chi decided to train and fight barefoot like her mother-in-law. She is determined to find Gohan and defeat Piccolo.

On Kami's look out,training begins and as Chiaotzu is in deep meditation,the other 4 are sparring. Yamcha is sparring with Tien and Krillin is sparing with Yajirobe. Each fighter wearing weighted clothing to enhance their training. 

Back in the Otherworld,Gine and Kakarot have finally reached the end of Snake Way and find nothing. Kakarot is disappointed,but Gine sees a planatoid in the sky. She thinks that that's where King Kai lives. So the 2 Saiyans jump up to the planet and are dragged down by the gravity.

Kakarot has issues moving around the Planet,due to the gravity,while Gine doesn't. She mentions that the gravity here is only slightly greater than that of Planet Vegeta's. They soon meet King Kai,who they request training from,so that they can defeat the 2 Saiyans that are on their way to Earth.

King Kai will only train them if they pass 3 tests. The first is to make him laugh with a joke. Both Saiyan's struggle with that,but eventually come up with something.

The next test is to master the gravity by catching King Kai's pet monkey,Bubbles. Gine catches Bubbles with low difficulty,amazing King Kai. Gine reveals to him that both She and Kakarot are Saiyans. King Kai believes it. Kakarot,meanwhile,is having some issues due to the gravity,but eventually catches the Monkey.

Back on Earth,Gohan's wilderness survival training is complete and now Piccolo is teaching him how to fight - the hard way. Gohan's gi gets destroyed,so Piccolo gives him a new one -one that resembles his own. It was during this time that Piccolo was beginning to warm-up to Gohan. Kami senses this too.

Back on King Kai's,Gine and Kakarot take the Final test - Hit the speedy Cricket Gregory with a mallet. This exercise was to improve the Saiyan's hand-eye coordination - which will be very important later. Both Gine and Kakarot pass.

After passing all 3 tests,King Kai decides to trains them in the art of Kaio-ken. After King Kai reveals to them that the Saiyans will be arriving on Earth in 4 months,the training begins. Back on Earth,Bulma and Co. have found all 7 Dragon Balls and are waiting for the right time to use them.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 37 - The Arrival Of The Villainous Prince and his Brutal General. 

3 months have past and Chi Chi is finished with her training. She is ready for Piccolo and heads to where He and Gohan are.

Note: Thanks to prior training,Chi Chi can now sense ki,fly,and shoot energy blasts.     

Chi Chi interrupts Piccolo and Gohan's training. She wants her Son back and is ready to defeat Piccolo to do it. Piccolo senses that Chi Chi has gotten stronger. Gohan pleads with his mother to let him continue training and that Piccolo isn't really that bad. But Chi Chi refuses to hear it and attacks Piccolo.

Chi Chi and Piccolo fight,despite Gohan's pleas. Chi Chi demonstrates the ability to shoot energy through her feet,which impresses Gohan. The fight is close,but Piccolo ends up winning. And in a moment of kindness decides to spare Chi Chi and allow her to train with him.

Back on Kami's Lookout,the training is complete,but the warriors - sans Yajirobe - decide to train more on Earth. Back at King Kai's,Gine and Kakarot are sparing with one another and have already learned the Kaioken. King Kai is very pleased at his students and is ready to teach them his Ultimate Technique - The Spitit Bomb.

After a month's time,Gine and Kakarot have completed their training. King Kai tells them that the Evil Saiyan's will be arriving on Earth tomorrow,but has some dire news - by the time Gine and Kakarot return from Snake Way,the Villains will already be on Earth.

Gine tells Kakarot that there's no time to waste and that they must contact Master Roshi and Bulma to wish him back with the Dragon Balls. King Kai allows Kakarot to telepathically contact Master Roshi to tell him that the Saiyan Invaders will be arriving tomorrow and that he and Gine won't be joining the battle until the day after.   

Master Roshi tells Goku that the Dragon Balls have all be collected and that they are ready to make the Wish. After some minor small talk,Kakarot ends the transmission,while Master Roshi and Bulma summon Shenron to revive Kakarot. 

Kakarot has been brought back to life. King Kai gives Kakarot a new Gi,which is the same as his old one,but with the 'Kai' insignia on the back.

Gine decides to stay to master her training and wishes her son luck. Kakarot leaves King Kai's Planet for Snake Way. King Kai tells Gine that for Saiyan's,She and Kakarot are quite pleasant. Gine is ready to master her training. King Kai has another technique that he wants to teach her that he didn't have time to each Kakarot. Gine is ready.

Meanwhile,the next day,The Evil Saiyans,Prince Vegeta and General Nappa,arrive on Earth,crash landing in the middle of a City. After destroying the city as part of their "greetings",Nappa and Vegeta decide to fight Earth's strongest fighters before searching for the Dragon Balls.

Their fighter search brings them to Gohan,Chi Chi and Piccolo. Nappa is surprised that Earthlings could be this strong as his scouter reads 2,000 for the kid;1,300 for the woman;and 2,400 for the Green Man. Vegeta recognizes Piccolo as a Namekian and asks him the location of the Dragon Balls?

Piccolo tells them that he doesn't know and informs them that the Balls have already been used,so it'll be another year before they're active again. Nappa is annoyed by the news and plans on taking out his frustrations on our heroes. Krillin arrives and is ready to fight. Tien,Chiaotzu and Yamcha soon follow.

Vegeta gets a fun idea - well,fun for him anyway. He tells Nappa that they haven't watched a good fight in years and orders his General to bring out some Saibamen. Nappa takes out 2 small bottles - one containing seeds,the other containing liquid.

Nappa plants the seeds and "waters" them with the liquid. Moments later,7 small green plant-like space mutants rise from the ground and are ready to fight.  

------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 38 - A Grave Day For Earth's Heroes!

The Battle with the Saibamen begin. One tries a kamakaze attack on Yamcha,but fails and is the 1st one destroyed. All but Gohan kills a Saibaman. Gohan is still unsure about his capabilities as a warrior,so Piccolo and Chi Chi manage to beat and kill the Saibaman who was attacking him.

Vegeta is impressed at the strength and skills of Earth's warriors and has Nappa go next. After powering up,the big Saiyan General kills Yamcha with a sucker punch and deflects Krillin's Super Kamehameha. Meanwhile,Kakarot is racing down Snake Way and Gine is continuing her training with King Kai.

King Kai is impressed with Gine's abilities and how she has mastered the x2 Kaioken. Gine wants to go even further beyond with the technique and go for x10. The barefooted Saiyan Woman continues her training,while her Earth friends get beaten and killed.

Back on Earth,Nappa kills Chiaotzu with a mouth blast. He kills a vengeful Tien by beating him to death after blocking his Tri-Beam. Krillin,saddened and angry at the loos of his friends,screams out Kakarots name and tells him to hurry up.

Curious to meet Kakarot for the 1st time,decides to pause the battle for 3 hours,so that they can wait for him. But warns that the fight will continue regardless whether Kakarot shows or not. He also tells the Earth Warriors to be both Grateful And Lucky.   

Kakarot is still on Snake Way and is annoyed that it's taking him so long to get back home. Back on King Kai's Planet,Gine is taking a break from training to Eat. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 39 - Kakarot Strikes Back With A Vengeance!

3 Hours have passed and Kakarot is still on Snake Way. Vegeta tells Nappa to show no mercy. Nappa is ready to kill. Piccolo comes up with a last ditch effort plan - Grab Nappa's tail and weaken him. This fails,as Vegeta explains that Nappa and Himself have evolved and rid themselves of the weakness.

Nappa beats up Piccolo for grabbing his tail. He then goes after Chi Chi and Krillin,who double team him. Gohan,finding the strength to fight,joins in to protect his mom and friend. Meanwhile,Kakarot has reached the Check-In Station and is taken back home by Kami. After receiving some Senzu Beans from Korin (his last 4),Kakarot rides the Nimbus into battle. He eats one of the Senzu Beans and commands Nimbus to "Go Turbo".

To Gohan's horror both Chi Chi and Krillin are beaten to near death. Gohan grows Enraged and powers up (to a power level of 4,000). He fires a Masenko that weakens Nappa. Vegeta is surprised at the half-breed's power. But after that attack,Gohan is exhausted.

Nappa commends Kakarot's Kid for his power and that he's earned the right to die like a 1st Class Saiyan Warrior. Gohan is too weak to to anything. Nappa fires a blast at the young warrior,but Piccolo jumps in the way,protecting him.

After a heartfelt speech to Gohan,Piccolo dies. Gohan powers up again,but attacks Nappa directly,he is defeated. Suddenly the Nimbus Cloud saves Gohan. Kakarot is back. On King Kai's Planet,Gine is training hard and is informed by King Kai that Kakarot has made it to the battle. Gine is glad.

King Kai tells Gine that it's time to teach her that other Technique he promised to teach her - Instant Transmission,a teleportation move that he learned from the 1st King of the Planet Yardrat. Gine has heard of the Yardrats and has read that they are a mostly passive people,with low fighting powers,but that they make up for it with amazing abilities,such as healing. 

King Kai is amazed by Gine's knowledge. And So the training begins. Back on Earth,after healing Krillin,Gohan,and Chi Chi with the Senzu Beans,Kakarot beats the hell out of Nappa. Vegeta,sick of his General's ineptitude,kills him outright. 

Vegeta challenges Kakarot to a fight. Kakarot tells His family and friend to go back to Kame House. They object,but Kakarot is insistent,so they go. Kakarot and Vegeta leave for another place to battle.  

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 40 - Clash Of The Saiyan Classes!

Vegeta and Kakarot have their battle on some nearby cliffs. Meanwhile,Gine has mastered the x3 Kaioken. After she does so,she practices Instant Transmission. King Kai watches the battle on Earth. Meanwhile,Kakarot has beaten Vegeta with a 2x Kiaoken. Pissed at losing to a "Low-Class Clown",Vegeta powers up his "Galic Gun" to destroy Kakarot and the area.

Kakarot counters with a "Kaioken x3 Kamehameha",despite King Kai's objections to never go over x2. The beam struggle goes into Kakarots favor and it blasts Vegeta into the sky. Back on King Kai's Planet,King Kai tells Gine that Kakarot has damaged his body using the 3x Kaioken and will need help very soon.

Gine tells her Son to "Hang In There". Back on Earth,Vegeta has returned and decides that he's gonna finish Kakarot as an Oozaru. After realizing that the Moon has been destroyed,he creates a Blutz Wave Ball,an energy ball that perfectly emulates Full Moonlight. 

He uses the ball to transform into an Oozaru. Noticing that something is wrong,Gohan,Krillin,and Chi Chi go to help Kakarot. Kakarot decides to use the Spirit Bomb. He makes one,but it's canceled out when Vegeta grabs him. Krillin,Gohan,and Chi Chi arrive and try to fight back,but their attacks are useless.

Suddenly,from out of nowhere,Yajirobe comes in from behind Oozaru Vegeta and cuts off his tail. Vegeta reverts back to his normal self. Meanwhile,Gine has completed her training and has gotten the hang of Instant Transmission. King Kai gives Gine a new Gi. It's similar to her old one,but with the Kai Emblem in the front and back. And,per Gine's request,he didn't include footwear. 

Gine thanks King Kai and uses Instant Transmission to get back to the Check-In Station,to King Yemma's surprise. She then uses the technique to teleport back to Earth. After being healed by Mr. Popo (via Senzu Bean),Gine teleports to the Battlefield.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 41 - The Invasion Ends And A New Adventure Begins.

Gine arrives,to Vegeta's surprise. Seeing her friends and loved ones beaten down,Gine gets enraged. Vegeta taunts Gine and mentions that not even Kakarot's Spirit Bomb was enough to defeat him and neither will She. Gine beats the living hell out of Vegeta using a x3 Kaioken.

Gine places her bare foot on Vegeta's tells Vegeta to leave and to never return again. She also tells Vegeta that his father was a damn idiot for selling out their race to Frieza. She delivers one final stomp before walking away.

A battered Vegeta summons his Space Pod via remote. Gine and the others watch as the Saiyan Prince escapes. Gine leaves to check on Gohan and brings him to Kakarot. Krillin and Yajarobe,no worse for wear,join her.

Master Roshi and the others arrive in a sky craft. Korin is there too,he reveals that he informed Master Roshi and Bulma of everything and that he's out of Senzu Beans,so the Surviving Warriors will have to go to a hospital. 

Soon,out heroes collect their dead friends,and place them in Capsule Coffins. Later,our heroes reflect on the battle. Gine tells them that,even though Piccolo and Kami are dead,there may still be a chance to revive everyone killed by Nappa and Vegeta.

Gine reveals that kami and Piccolo are Namekians,a race of intelegent and remarkable people who are the originators of the Dragon Balls. So all they need to do is go to Planet Namek and use It's Dragon Balls.

She also mentions that they can modify Her space ship to get there - or Nappa's or Kakarot's. Bulma asks if the Planet still exists and it's location if it still does. Gine tells Bulma that the location of the World,according to one of the books she read on Namek,is 9054YX. Although she's sure that it exists.

Kakarot telepathically contacts King Kai to confirm is Mother's info. And King Kai confirms everything. Our Heroes now have a new Goal - Planet Namek!

Dragon Ball - Legacy of Gine Vol. 6

Episode 27 - Training In The Heavens 

On Earth,the "Child" of King Piccolo,also named Piccolo,is out and about and training to defeat Kakarot. Meanwhile,Tien,Chiaotzu,Yamcha,Krillin,and Chi Chi have left Master Roshi's to train together. They eventually meet Bora,who tells them of Korin Tower,where they can get some great training.

So,our 5 heroes head to Korin Tower,where they Train with Korin. Oh and,Yajirobe trains with them as well.   

Back on Kami's Lookout,as Kakarot is doing some sparring with Mr. Popo,Gine asks Kami for special training,so that she can one day defeat Frieza. Kami tells Gine that He's heard of Frieza through the words of other Planetary Guardians and knows that he will be defeated one day.

Gine thanks Kami again for allowing Kakarot and Herself to train here and asks if he doesn't mins her being barefoot,as she finds it comforting and efficient for fighting. Kami tells her that he doesn't mind,but does question her attitude on "Fair Fighting."

Kami tells her that,while Fair Fighting is a very noble thing,that nobility needs to be set aside when fighting truly evil beings. Meaning she could've killed Piccolo easily,even though it would cost him his own life,as well as the Dragon Balls.

Gine asks Kame what he means? Kami tells her that King Piccolo and Himself were connected spiritually,and if Piccolo dies so does He and vice versa. But that since King Piccolo had most of his essence transferred into his "Final Son",Kami gets to live and the Dragon Balls remain active. 

Gine doesn't understand this "Connected Spiritually" concept much,so Kami explains further. He tells Gine that King Piccolo originated as the evil mess that lived within Him,born out of His own frustration with the Human Race's greed and ignorance. 

When He sought the Guardianship of Earth,his predecessor,saw his potential,but warned that He could never become a Guardian unless He extracted the evil within. And so,He did,but that Evil took a Physical Form - The Evil King Piccolo. 

Gine thinks she Understands now. A few minutes later,Kami and Popo take Kakarot and Gine to a room. Kami tells them that inside the room is the Hyperbolic Time Chamber,where Warriors can get a full years training in an entire day. 

Gine is amazed at such a place exists. Popo leads the 2 Saiyans in. Gine and Kakarot are amazed at their new surroundings and are shocked at the high gravity and lack of oxygen in the room. Mr. Popo tells them that,with the exception of the livable "Temple",the Time Chamber is all endless space.

Gine doesn't think they'll last too long,but will try to anyway. Meanwhile,Piccolo senses that Kakarot is growing stronger and Will surpass him,so Piccolo Jr. decides to invade Kakarot's Training session and kill him before He gets too strong.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 28 - The Mean Green Intruder From Hell. 

Piccolo Jr. arrives at Kami's look out and is confronted by Mr. Popo and Kami telling the Son of the Demon King that he's unwelcome here. Piccolo Jr. tells them to bring out Kakarot. And when they refuse,Piccolo Jr. demands them to bring his enemy out.

But,Kami and Mr. Popo stand their ground. Piccolo is ready to fight,but Krillin,Tien,and Yamcha arrive and reveal that Korin has taught them how to sence Ki and that they have sensed Piccolo Jr. and are ready to defend Kami's lookout and Kami.

Piccolo tells them that he has no interest in any of them at the moment and only wants Kakarot. Kami finally tells Piccolo Jr. that Kakarot and Gine are training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and will be out tomorrow. But Piccolo Jr. refuses to wait and demands to be taken to Kakarot NOW!

The heroes are ready to fight,but Kami just tells them to return to their training at Korin's,and that he and Mr. Popo will deal with "Demon Jr." Despite objections,the 3 heroes leave reluctantly. Kami tells Piccolo Jr. that he'll take him to Kakarot.

Kami takes Piccolo to the Time Chamber,but takes the long way for stalling purposes. Kami telepathically communicates with Gine and Kakarot,telling them that Piccolo Jr. is here and wants to fight and kill them. He tells them that he's taking the long way as a stalling tactic and to hurry up and finish training,because the the stall tactic isn't going to last.

After a few minutes,Kami leads Piccolo Jr. to the Chamber. Suddenly,Kakarot and Gine exit the Chamber,stronger and more experienced than ever. (even though they've only spent only 5 hours,Earth Time,in there).

Kami tells them to fight somewhere else and that his "Holy Sanctuary" isn't a "Battlefield". Gine agrees and tells Piccolo that they'll fight him in the Time Chamber,which Kami objects to. But,Gine insists,since She and Kakarot trained in the Chamber,it's only "Fair" that Piccolo Jr. gets a turn too. Plus,Gine wants a better sparring partner for Kakarot.

Kakarot is interested in seeing what Piccolo Jr. can do. Kami lets Piccolo Jr. into the Chamber,but requests that Gine forget about "Fair Play" and defeat Him. Gine tells Kami that She won't be making promises,but Will prevent Piccolo from destroying things.

The 3 enter the Chamber,ready to fight. Kami wishes our heroes luck.
