Part 15, Chapter 4: Shallot's Rage!

I don't believe this...!

It can't be... Giblet...

There's no way Giblet can be dead! He just can't be!

No... No-no-no-no...!

Hey, old guy, what're you standing around for?! We gotta get to Giblet, now!

If we can get him some help, he might...

I see... So you were also an associate of the dearly departed Giblet.

!!

You needn't bother... I'm afraid he's beyond helping...

He was already at death's door before engaging us in battle, after all.

And then he made use of a power that only further put his life in jeopardy. Death was the only possible outcome.

No... He's not...!

I'm sure he has no regrets about dying in battle. He comes from a warrior race, after all.

Now then, Paragas, you're aware of our next target, I presume?

Y-Yes, Lord Frieza! We will head towards Giblet's twin brother, Shallot!

What?!

!

We'll ready the ship for departure at once! Will you be accompanying us, my lord?

No, I can travel faster on my own than on a ship, so I'll be going ahead of you.

I see...!

Also...

And do be sure to bring these two along for the ride, yes?

I may need to make use of them again... Ku, ku, ku...

Yes, my liege!

Grr...!!

Well then, I'll be taking my leave. Do try your best to join me as soon as possible.

You heard Lord Frieza! Get on the ship, on the double!!

Don't you bark orders at me! You bastards... You killed Giblet and Buu...!

Hmph. Do you honestly think you're in any position to be talking back to me?!

Wha?!

Get these insubordinate cretins on the ship, now!

Gah... Grr...!!

D...Damn it...!

Nrrrgh...!

C...Cheelai...

Draaah!!

That's the last one! Stupid jerks wasting my time...!

I gotta get over there... I can't keep him waiting!

Sorry to interrupt when you're in such a hurry...

?!

Oh, my. Look at how easily you scattered all my men to the wayside. It appears I was right to come when I did.

Frieza...!

Now then, I do have to wonder who it is you're rushing off to see? Fu. fu, fu...!

Grr...! Where the hell'd you come from?! I'm not in the mood to deal with you!

What's this? You're being rather acrimonious. It's not like you at all.

The Shallot I know would be thrilled at the chance to settle the score with me, right here and now.

Am I not correct?

Damn...!

Outta my way, bastard!!

Well, now! In the short interim since our last meeting it appears you've reached a new plateau of strength. How remarkable.

Giblet also showed me some amusing power. It appears you're keeping pace. Fufu...!

?! What'd you say about Giblet?!

It appears we're ready to begin!

And take this!

Gah...!

Grah... You slimy...!!

Frieza! You fought Giblet!? Tell me what happened to him! Now!

Dear me, this won't do. You really ought to know you can't allow yourself to get distracted...

...in the midst of battle!!

Gwah!?

I was looking forward to seeing what you'd be capable of with this new power of yours. Sadly you're clearly not invested in this fight.

Damn...you....!

In any case, that should be long enough. I believe I've done enough fighting here.

What the hell're you on about?! Why'd you lose your gold form?!

Hmph! You truly are single-minded.

You haven't even noticed that we have some new arrivals.

What...?

Allow me to introduce you to my subordinates.

This is Paragas, and his son... Broly.

?!

B-Broly...?

Shallot...

What're you doing here?

Did I not just tell you? He's my subordinate.

...

What...

What's going on here...?

...

I remember you said you were gonna look for your old man. What happened?

Hmph. It appears you were of aid to my son recently. I suppose thanks are in order...

...! So you're Broly's father?!

That I am. My name is Paragas. A Saiyan serving under the mighty Lord Frieza!

You're kidding me! Broly and his dad are buddy-buddy with freakin' Frieza?! No way!

"Freakin' Frieza"... I don't care for that turn of phrase at all. Heh, heh, heh...

Whether or not you choose to believe it is up to you, young Shallot.

It makes little difference to Broly's mandate, wouldn't you say, Paragas?

Quite right, sire!

Broly, this is an order! Kill Shallot! This instant!!

?!

Nnngh... Ugh...

Hrmph! It's far too late for you to hesitate! There's no turning back! And you know that!

Go!! Brolyyyy!!

...!

Wrooooaahhh!!!

H-Hey, wait a minute! Broly, stop!!

Daaaaah!!

Gah...!

Dammit! I don't understand what's happening!!

You're working for Frieza and trying to kill me?!

Why?! What the hell's going on with you, Broly?!

Urg... Ugh...!!

Urraaaahhh!!

Huh? What's wrong with that bastard Shallot? He's looking awful sloppy out there.

Heh, heh, heh! I'm not surprised. Broly's as strong as they come, and Lord Frieza's also there to throw him off his game!

If he keeps it up and beats Shallot to a pulp, the Paragas unit's reputation will go through the roof! Let him have it, Broly!!

Look at these lowlife jerks running their mouths! Someone oughta shut them up!

It's only natural Shallot isn't fighting well.

A fight to the death with a friend is just awful...!

Grrrr...! We gotta stop 'em somehow!

There's no way! Not with Frieza out there...

Guh...!

B-Broly! You...You protected me...?!

Ch...Cheelai...! What happened?!

Hm, I'd say that worked out quite well...

You little...! That was you, wasn't it?!

Ho-ho! How could you possibly suspect me?

But...if you hadn't been sneaking around, then perhaps none of this would've happened... Fufu...

If I go out there...

I'll just make everything worse...! What should I do?

Cheelai...

Daaaaaah!!!

Ngrah?!

Fwahahaha!! What's the matter? Is that all you've got?!

I must say, you fought better during our little scuffle a moment ago.

Guh... Ugh... Broly... Are you really... Why...?

Come on now, monkey! If you don't stop hesitating, you'll be killed in no time at all...

...by your dear friend Broly! Ho, ho, ho!!

...Ngh! Cut the crap! Broly would never do that!

Are you quite sure of that? All of you brats are the same: completely spoiled!

I have raised Broly to be the ultimate fighting tool! He'll fight anyone I command him to and obliterate them from existence!

That includes you, regardless of any friendship you may have! And it applied to your twin brother as well.

...! You mean Giblet...? And what do you mean "applied"?!

Yes, that's the one! He stood before Broly and lost his life! By my command!

No... There's no way that's true!!

Stop lying, you bastard!!!

Oh, ho, ho! What a pitiful sight. Surely that nose of yours sensed it the moment Broly joined us!

Giblet's scent must be all over your dear Saiyan friend!

!!

And now, Shallot, Broly will send you to join your brother!!

Ugh...Urgh...!!

B-Broly...!

Enough chatter! Let the battle continue! Broly, attack!!

Graaaaah!

Wroooooh!!!

Raaaaah!!!!

Gwah?!

Fu, fu, fu... This is rather one-sided. You must still be in shock over learning of your brother's passing.

Graah...!

Hmph! Pathetic.

Your brother's death is no excuse for such an unsightly display! I never knew a Saiyan could be so spineless!

Ku, ku, ku...! Quite the reaction indeed! It turns out I was right to leave this task up to the two of you.

And while I hate to cut their reunion short, perhaps it's time to have Broly finish the job.

Paragas. Would you be so kind as to have Broly use that power again?

With pleasure, my lord!

It's finally the end of that cursed Shallot...! I can hardly wait to witness it firsthand. Ho, ho, ho!!

Broly! It's time! Show Shallot the same power you used to kill his worthless brother!!

!!

Argh... Urgh...!

I won't hear any excuses! No matter what, it is your duty to follow my orders!

U...Ugh... Grrraaah...!!

Broly, come on! Are you really okay with this?!

...?!

Are you really okay living your life this way? The way he wants you to? I know you aren't!

Ah... I...

Hmph! Stop wasting your breath. Broly is merely a tool at my disposal! He has no say in how he lives!

I'm ordering you, Broly! Finish him! NOW!!

Nrgh...

Nrrr...

Raaaaah!!

...!! Stop it, Broly! Don't do it!!!

Gaaaaah!!

Heh...heh, heh...! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!!!

Haaa...!! Haaa...! Guh...Grah...!!

...

You... You...

You damn idiot!!!

Ahhhhh!! Uraahhh!!

Graaaaah!!

Ack!

Ah ha ha ha!! This is exactly how Broly killed your beloved brother! How does it feel?!

...

I see...

I'm supposed to believe you used that damn Dark Ki...

...and killed Giblet? And to top it off...

...it wasn't even your decision. You were "just following orders"? Is that it?!

...!

What a load of bull!!

And you have the nerve to call yourself a Saiyan?! Huh, Broly?!

Gwaaaaah?!

What?! It can't be...! How could he do that to Broly?!

My, oh my... How very bothersome indeed.

...! Lord Frieza...?

Calm yourself, Paragas.

What you've just witnessed is nothing more than one of Shallot's patented, emotionally-charged attacks. It's nothing to be concerned over.

...! I see...! Ha, ha, ha...!

...

My word. You just don't know when to give up. Your brother shared the same irritating trait.

He too cried and shouted to the bitter end. Only to be killed by Broly.

And you'll share the same fate. You're just delaying the inevitable.

Shut your mouth...!

I beg your pardon?

You haven't stopped flapping your gums since you got here, and you're dead wrong about everything.

I'm his twin, so I know better than any of you...

Giblet... ...ISN'T DEAD!!

...?!

But that's not what's important right now! Broly's the one who's got me pissed off! It's got nothing to do with you!

SO BACK OFF, FRIEZA!!

Gwah!!

L-Lord Frieza...?!

Grr...!

Hmph... Ha, ha! You truly believe your twin brother still draws breath?

I cannot believe you would attack me with such absurd delusions.

This is exactly the sort of thing I hate about you...

...and the entire Saiyan race!

I'll make you regret laying your hands on me, you filthy ape!

KIYAAAAHH!!

DAAAH!

Why you...

...miserable waste of atoms!!

Gwah?!

How dare you speak to me with such impudence!!

If you truly wish to die by my hand so badly, then so be it!

Now begone, you infernal monkey!!

Graaaaah!!

Hmph! Watching Saiyan monkeys tear each other apart is the greatest theater I could ask for. Alas it was I who had to end young Shallot's life.

Nrah... WROOOOH!!

What the?! How could you possibly withstand such an attack?!

I don't have time to play around with you, Frieza!!

I thought I told you to BACK OFF!!!

GUAAAAAH!!

I can't believe it... He overpowered Lord Frieza?!

...

W...What is this? Just who is this brat?!

Wrooooooh!!

...! Broly!!

Well, look who's back! You ready to pick up where we left off?

Haaah...! Haaah...!!

(Of course! I still have Broly! I don't need to worry! Just calm down...)

Ha... Ha, ha, ha! You're tenacious, I'll give you that! But you don't seem to know when to die! Don't think that just because you landed a lucky shot...

Stuff it, old man...

...or do you want me to kick your ass too?!

What?!

K-Kill him, Broly!! Kill Shallot, and do it now!!

Urgh... Gah...!

Raaaaah!!

...!

What kind of half-baked attack was that?!

Don't you dare underestimate me!!

Wh...What the...?!

Nrgh?!

"Just following orders"...using a dark power you don't want...!

You don't even want this fight!

So there's no way someone like you could kill me!
