Clash of the Strongest!

Hmph.

Are Saiyans this sentimental?

That's unforgivable!!!

Such an annoying little brat...

I don't understand why you are so mad.

It's not like I killed YOUR father.

Hmph... But I don't mind being impulsive for a change...

...

Stupid little runt!

You're not even in the same league as Lord Cooler!

You'll have to get through us first!

Cooler's Armored Squad is gonna make mincemeat out of you!

You're not getting one step closer to Lord Cooler!

Like we'd ever lose to you guys!

We'll give you a one-way ticket to the Otherworld, Saiyan, Earthling and Namekian alike!

You see what that Saiyan kid did?

He lunged at Cooler all by himself.

Heh heh... He's the real deal, all right!

That kid really is like Bardock.

Guess we shouldn't be scared of a trifling Armored Squad, either...

Let's do this!

W-We did it!

Whew... Guess you never know till you try.

That kid, Goten, blew some serious wind into our sails!

Heh heh... You can say that again!

Heh heh heh...

It's... It's not over yet!

Mwa ha ha ha...! Die!!!

Special Beam Cannon!

Don't ever let your guard down!

Piccolo!

I bet he's gonna hog all the glory...

Oh well... Who does that leave?

...

I'll be the strongest in the universe once I defeat every last one of you.

Heh heh... I like my objectives straightforward.

Relax. I'll make this easy on you.

...

I'm gonna be the one to take you down.

No need to get everyone here involved.

I should warn you... I'm nothing like my little brother.

Shut your trap!

You're as good as I imagined.

Good enough to take down my brother, at least.

Tsk! He's way more powerful than when he was with King Cold.

Guess that means he really is the strongest of his clan.

Heh... What's the matter?

Are you... afraid of me?

In your dreams!

Look who's here!

Call all the cavalry you want. It won't change a thing.

I was planning on dis- patching you Saiyans quickly, anyway.

Heh... This is getting interesting.

But you're about to discover that no amount of wind in your sails can save you now.

Now then, show me the power of the Saiyans!

Wait a sec...

He can go Super Saiyan, too?!

Heh... Not too shabby, you guys.

I'm really glad you're on MY side!

Super Saiyans... Three in all...!

Here we come, Cooler!

This battle's about to get real!

I see... So you concealed your true power.

But that just makes this all the more interesting!

...

What?

Now then... Shall we begin?

D-Did he just transform?!

I'm sensing Ki that is off-the- charts!

Guess he, too, was saving the best for last.

Tsk... So the battle so far was just a warm-up?

Oh, don't feel so downhearted.

You can die content in the knowledge that you got to see me in all my splendor.

We were fighting someone THAT powerful all this time?

Full disclosure... I won't show any mercy, no matter how loudly you wail.

I'll show you a living hell!

Cut the big talk! We didn't come all this way to give up now!

Let's do this, Player!

What's the matter, Namekian scum?

You'll have to do better than that to defeat me!

I spared you that day, looking forward to an interesting twist ahead.

But I'm disappointed to see the limits of Earthling and Namekian power.

I hate to admit it, but there's nothing we can do now...

Well, Saiyans? What will you do now?

Grrr...

Now then... Let us see who truly is the strongest in the universe.

Ngh...

Bardock, Goten and I...

Even if all three of us take him, we're bound to leave an opening for Cooler to exploit.

Exactly. It was the same with Cooler and King Cold.

Goten and I will attack him first, deal whatever damage we can deliver.

We'll be counting on you for the knockout punch, Bardock!

You sure about this?

I've got plenty of fight left in me!

So be sure to finish him off!

Don't get yourselves killed!

Got it!

It doesn't matter how many monkeys stand before me.

You're all going down!

What's the matter? Is that all the power of a Super Saiyan?

We gotta deliver at least a little damage!

Dammit! I need more power!

Heh... Something wrong, boy?

I thought you said you'd never forgive me.

Well, boy? You don't seem so tough now.

Grrr!

Bwahahaha! It has finally dawned on you, hasn't it? There's nothing more you can do!

But there will be no mercy, even for a little brat like you!

Bardock... Th-Thank you!

...

Did Bardock just protect someone in the midst of battle...?

I...

I was never able to protect my comrades.

...

I won't let another one of them die under my watch!

I see... Protecting your fellow Saiyans... So that's your code of conduct, eh?

I notice it also raises your strength.

...

Only by defeating an enemy with their full power unleashed...

...does the title of "the strongest" hold any meaning.

What?!

(pant... pant...) (pant...)

We... We won...

Bardock...! He pulled it off!

Jeez... He really is something else!

Bardock! He did it!

Yeah... I'm sure glad he's on our side.

I should be the one thanking you.

This victory belongs to all of us.

Thanks to which I've achieved my objective of defeating Frieza.

As such, this is where I say goodbye.

Oh...

You guys will keep investigating this world, I take it?

I've finally reunited with my comrades, so we can resume our carefree wanderings.

This dimension- twisted world may vanish someday...

...but until then, I'm gonna enjoy the hell out of it.

Heh... I had fun too, kid.

Take care, my friends. And don't ever back down.

Um...

...

...

Would you like to join us?

Huh?!

Bardock?

I can't help feeling this was fate, what with so few Saiyans left in the world.

Whaddaya say, kid?

Sure! I'll join you!

Wait a sec. You sure about this, Bardock?

Are you really ready to be a glorified babysitter?

Heh... Who said anything about babysitting?

I simply invited him to join us.

Oh, brother...

Goten! Thanks for the Senzu Beans!

Take care!

Thanks! You too, Krillin!

Bye-bye!

By the way, didn't you say you had an older brother?

His name isn't Raditz, is it?

Huh? Why would he be called something weird like that?

Never mind...

...

They're gone...

They were all so powerful!

Yeah... It was only a short moment in time...

...yet it feels like we fought side by side for years.

Well, Trunks... We've defeated Frieza and racked up some serious combat experience.

Next up...

The evil wizard Babidi is a grave threat if he can wield such immense power.

I'm...I'm... alive?!

I guess Lord Frieza and the others must have been defeated...

...
