Part 2, Chapter 7: Clash! Showdown with Frieza!

Frieza!

Oh, I didn't think you would stay here to be killed by me. It does save me some time, however.

If you take that lady away, it may hurt our future plans... Return her to me, will you?

Eep!

Nrgh! Bulma! Get away from there!

R-Right, give your best...!

Oho? I'm afraid that's not allowed, young lady.

Come to think of it, maybe I should take one of your legs out of commission so you stop your wanderings, hmm?

...Stop it! Friezaaa!

Eek!

Heh, seems I'm just in time! Lord Beerus finally gave me permission to come and save Bulma!

Goku's here!

Who dares to parry my attack?!

That's Frieza all right... But it seems you're from an era where you don't know me.

Hmph, another rat who has been shown the real meaning of pain by the future me. Tsk, tsk, there are a lot of you.

I don't remember it that way... D'you really believe you were the one who came out on top?

Hah, treating me like some kind of ignoramus. There's no way I would meet such a fate.

Thought so... You Friezas are all the same, no matter what time you're from.

Ngh, this haughty speech coming from you makes me sick.

Very well... You seem to be allied to Shallot, so I shall give you the honor of being killed all together!

...I won't be fighting you.

Excuse me?

Shallot's gonna be the one to take you down. Right?

Goku..

Yeah, that's right! I'm the one taking that bastard down!

Here, take this, Shallot!

Wait, these are...?

The Senzu Beans. I was only able to get two, but they will come in handy.

Right, sorry but we gotta go now! We'll be waiting for your victory, Shallot!

Shallot, you can do it!

They...disappeared?! Just who is he...?

None of your business! Don't ignore me, Frieza!

...Very well. I'll simply find the lady later.

After cleaning up this Saiyan trash beforehand.

After all, I intend to slaughter every last Saiyan, no matter what era they are from.

Tch!

Sorry, Vegeta, Nappa... I didn't intend for you both to get involved too.

You're far too late for apologies!

Heh, jeez, you said it Vegeta. You sure are a handful, Shallot!

But it doesn't matter. He'd be able to find us whenever he pleased, anyway.

Running won't solve anything now. We stand our ground and we fight!

Ginyu Force, it's time!

Huh?! The Ginyu Force?!

Hmph... I had high hopes for you lot, you in particular, Shallot. It's a shame it had to turn out like this.

Time to brace yourself!

Nappa, Shallot! I'll leave the Ginyu Force to you!

Frieza's mine!

HEY! No way, man! I said I'd...

Shut up! This is our best chance of victory!

So forget about any personal stake you have in this and just focus on winning!

Tch, fine! Whatever! Then take this with you, Vegeta!

What's this? The Beans that strange guy earlier gave to you?

They're called Senzu... Take 'em. If you eat one, it'll instantly fix any injury you may have.

Quite the secret weapon you've got. We may actually have a shot at this... But you're sure you don't need one?

Don't worry, I've got Nappa watching my back. It's better for you to take them both.

Hmph, fine. Not that I need your sympathy. You better not cry about it later, you hear?

Is your little meeting over now? I hope it was worth the wait... It'll be the last you ever have!

Don't underestimate Saiyan strength!

Hey! I'm back, Lord Beerus!

Huh?! We're in the city? But how? How'd we get here?!

Heh heh heh! Instant Transmission! It lets me teleport wherever I want! I forgot I hadn't shown ya yet!

Well done, Goku! ...Wait, where's Shallot?

Ah...! Y'see, well... About that...

Shallot said he'd come back after smashing Frieza!

WHAT?!

Oh, dearie me...

Huh? Did I say something weird?

Ah ha ha...ha...

Why'd you just leave him there?! You should've brought him back kicking and screaming if you had to!

He's a Saiyan like me. I understand how he feels.

I don't give a crap how he feels! You should've prioritized my orders over his stupid emotions!

We all know who's stronger out of him and Frieza! You might as well have just killed him yourself!

Ya think so?

...?!

It's just a hunch really, but I feel Shallot will get there soon...

There? Get where?!

Just trust me on this one, Lord Beerus. ...And believe in Shallot, too!

Nngraah! Why are all you Saiyans like this?!

It's all on you if anything happens to him. Got it?!

Heh heh. Don't take this personally, li'l Shallot!

This is your fault for trying to one up on Lord Frieza!

You got that right. It's a shame, but we gotta do what we gotta do!

Rgh!

Hey, Shallot, don't sweat it! Let's take out these chumps then give Vegeta back up, got it?

Right, Captain, we await your orders!

You four are on standby! Soldiers, destroy these Saiyans!

...?!

HUH?! Are we not fighting, Captain?!

Silence! First, we watch!

Heh, do you really think these pieces of trash can stop us?

Ngh. Just as I thought...

Captain, we need to take them on!

Or, let me take them out on my own, Captain!

Hah! As if! If anyone's gonna take them on solo, it's me!

Whoa, whoa! Don't jump the queue! We're decidin' this with rock-paper- scissors!

Sheesh, do they ever give this act a rest?

GINYU FORCE! I said pay attention to the enemy!

?!

And the same goes for you, Shallot!

H-Huh, me too?!

I've been watching you, and you haven't been putting your back into it, have you?!

You don't seem the kind of brainiac who'd conserve his energy before fighting someone like Lord Frieza...

So c'mon! If you're gonna fight, let me see some sweat!

You gotta be kidding me... Ginyu's actually making some sense?!

Hey, Captain! Shallot's the enemy. Why're you giving him advice?

Yeah, Captain! Don't give him any unwanted confidence!

Yes, Shallot IS our enemy... However! He is also a former pupil of mine!

Which is why I can't stand to watch such a pitiful performance in silence!

Shut the hell up. I ain't pitiful! Keep your lousy comments to yourself!

I know what you're thinking, Shallot. The battle between Lord Frieza and Vegeta has drawn your focus away...

That's not all! You're also hesitant to fight us, your former squad! Am I right?!

Ngh!

And if that's not pitiful, what is?! Answer me, Shallot!!

Dammit...

Your dreadful combat style doesn't deserve the Ginyu Force to step in!

Grgh...! You're wrong...!

Can you still call yourself a warrior like that?!

!!

Remember, Shallot! Our days of training together!

Uhh... No, not that part...

But, alright, I get it...

Whatever happened then, it doesn't change the fact that we have to duke it out now.

Exactly. This is how things turned out, so I don't want you moving on with any regrets. Now come at us!

Alright. I heard you loud and clear! Don't think I'm gonna hesitate anymore!

I'm gonna take you all out, and keep moving forward!

Perfect answer!

Now then, Ginyu Force! Move out!

Yes, sir!

Ngrh! This is crazy... He was like a helpless baby only a little while ago!

Hee hee... You've finally learned how to throw a real punch, eh?

First two down! But we still got our work cut out for us!

Whoa, whoa! They took Jeice and Recoome out?!

Heh. Magnificent! Keep it up!

Uhh, Captain? Whose side are you on?!

Hm, isn't it obvious? The side of the Ginyu Force, and by extension Lord Frieza's!

But you must excuse me... It has been ages since I've seen a battle like this. I can't control my excitement!

If you have time to prattle on, then come at me, now!

Alrighty then. Time to take the place of those losers, Jeice and Recoome.

Prepare yourself for a schooling by none other than the vice-captain of the Ginyu Force!

Huh? But I thought Jeice was the vice-captain?

What?! No, you idiot, I am! Obviously! And I'm gonna prove it now!

(Guess he's not given up trying to climb the social ladder...)

Right, let me show you why they call me the Blue Hurricane! Try and keep up with this speed, Shallot!

I've improved, y'know... Now take this!

Hah... To lose to an ape... How shameful, ha ha ha...

I'm surprised a Saiyan like you could keep up with me... Aw man...

Well done, guys. Now leave the rest to me!

*pant* *pant* So the captain's finally gracing us with his presence.

Ginyu...!

Come to think of it, I haven't taken you on, one-on-one, for real yet.

So show me why they're at your every beck and call, Ginyu!

Heh, you're still as rude as ever, Shallot. But that's you through and through.

...However!

Haaaaaaa!

Whoa... Where did this Ki come from?

Isn't it obvious? You have no chance of beating the great Captain Ginyu. Now, steel yourselves!

Tch, I could smell he wasn't a pushover...

But, sheesh, this Ki is something else!

Keep it together, Shallot! We might have a little trouble with this one!

Heh, you don't need to tell me. I'm going all out!

Ginyu, get ready to taste everything I've got!

Very good, very good! This might just be the most exciting fight of my life.

Ngh... Unbelievable... To think he got THIS strong...

*pant* *pant* We...won!

*pant* Heh heh! When pushed to the brink, we always find a way to fight back!

Wonderful... You deserved this victory.

We may have lost in a fair battle... But our allegiance to Lord Frieza is not ending here!

Though we can't beat you one on one... It's not the same when the five of us are united!

Guys, wait a sec... Stop pushing youself!

We are the Ginyu Force! Loyal to Lord Frieza! We will not allow any who mean him harm to get anywhere near him!

I must admit I am a little ashamed to end our battle by outnumbering you...

Do you think me cowardly?

Pfft, as if. I understand, Ginyu. You lot also have your own unfaltering beliefs.

So, bring it on! I'll fight you right to the bitter end!

Heh, well spoken, Shallot. As the sixth member of the Ginyu Force, you will fall by our hands!

WAIT!

Hm?!

What's up, Nappa?

Shallot, are you really as dumb as you look? These fools already have their feet in the grave!

I'll take care of 'em! Now go give back up to Vegeta. Hurry!

What's this all of a sudden?!

Yeah, Nappa! Why're you spitting in the face of our resolve?!

Shaddap! I don't give a crap about that! We have more important things on our plate!

Wha...?!

That ain't all! Since when did you get all high-and-mighty over Shallot, huh?!

Let's get one thing clear! I'M his teacher, got it?! Not you!

Gimme a break...

Hah! To think that's what you'd have qualms with. Don't make me laugh. You're not WORTHY of being his teacher!

Yeah! ...Wait, no!

Ngrah, ANYWAY, Nappa, you can't beat all of them on your own!

Heh, forgotten my teachings already? I told you that you're a hundred years too young to be worrying about your teacher!

Hmph, I didn't say I was worried!

Listen, Shallot. What do you really want right now? Is it really to stay here and finish these guys off?

!!

If you get what I'm saying, then get a move on! Go!

Hey, what... Gyaaaagh?!

To think you'd choose to stay behind. Fueled by a teacher's pride, perhaps?

...

More importantly, what's the point of letting Shallot go to Lord Frieza?

His power level is not even close enough to take on Lord Frieza!

I don't care about that! Whether he's able to take on Frieza doesn't matter! What matters is that he wants to try!

All I did was grant my pupil his wish!

If he's going to risk his life, the rival's gotta be worth it! Heh!

So the reason you let him go was so that he could fight the fight he wanted to, even if it would be his last...

Ha ha, typical heavy-handed Saiyan kindness...

So, Nappa...

Do you intend to die here, today?

Heh. Beats me...

I always thought of you as Vegeta's simpleminded lackey... But I see I was wrong.

Very well! We'll devote the last of our lives to this battle too!

Dammit, he didn't go easy on me with that kick, did he!

Whatever, I need to find Vegeta... Over that side!

Huh?! What was that sound? Was it Nappa!?

..!!!

I can't sense their Ki... Neither Nappa's nor the Ginyu Force's...

No way...

Dammit... Those idiots!

*pant* *pant*

Ho? Seems you've gotten a little stronger even over this short fight.

But I'm afraid that won't be enough.

If only you Saiyans were a bit more faithful to me, you wouldn't have to die this way.

Don't make me laugh! I'd rather die a hundred times than swear loyalty to you!

Hey, Vegeta!

Kept me waiting long enough!

Vegeta... Nappa, he...

I know.

But listen. You're to focus on this fight now!

...How could the Ginyu Force be outstripped by mere Saiyans...

Mere Saiyans? Hah, you won't be able to keep saying that for long.

Shallot and I have already broken the limits of a normal Saiyan, and our power levels can grow even further still.

We're on our way to becoming the warriors of legend... The Super Saiyans!

Oh, Super Saiyan? You do like to talk big, don't you?

And you're starting to get on my nerves!

Ngh!

Tch!

(He's right... We just might have a chance at this, together! But, still...)

Very good. It seems you weren't just spouting hot air after all.

Quit observing and get serious, Frieza! Just transform already and show your true look!

Ahh, yes I forgot you learned about that from the little incident with Frost.

The fact that I am capable of such transformations!

Very well. If you wish to die that much, I'll give you what you want.

Now, have a glimpse of my transformation, and the unbridgeable gap between your power and mine!

Hraaaaaaa!

Graaaagh!

So this is Frieza's true form... This is ridiculous...

*pant* *pant*

Crap... This Ki is crazy. I don't believe it!

Indeed.

This is the transformation you were begging for!

Agh?!

No... Vegeta!

Urgh...!

Oh, my poor, dear Vegeta. To think you'd fall after one small blow?

I simply just can't control my overwhelming power anymore! Apologies if I overdid it...

You cocky...!

Seeing as I've gone to the effort of transforming, I might as well have some fun with the remaining monkey...

Dammit, Frieza, don't underestimate me!

*pant* *pant*

My, my, this is unexpected! You've given more of a fight than I thought.

Well then, I might as well refrain from holding back!

How about this?!

Aghhh!

Heh heh heh. Hey now, don't black out just yet! The best is yet to come...

Take that! And another!

Urk!

Galick Gun!

Nngh?!

Just...who?

Vegeta?! How? I left you for dead! You shouldn't even be able to move!

Oh yeah... The Senzu Beans!

Heh... To think a backwater place like Earth would have something as useful as this!

Hraaaaah!

Again I have beat back death... and have attained further power! I'm not the same Vegeta as before!

Heh heh heh!

What's so funny?!

Apologies. It seems I underestimated you, Vegeta.

However, watching your vain boasting is rather trying. Time to show you my real power and put you in your place!

My real power!

What does he mean, REAL power?!

Pfft... Ah ha ha ha! I didn't think the great Lord Frieza was capable of such pathetic bluffing!

No... You're wrong, Vegeta! I can smell it... Something bad is coming!

If there is one thing I can always commend you for, it's your senses, Shallot.

For you are correct! I have another transformation up my sleeve!

You what?!

Kaaaaah!

Whew...

This is impossible!

Heh heh heh! Feel honored, wretches!

You are the first to witness this transformation!

His Ki skyrocketed again!

Tch... It's still going!

Gaaaagh!

Tsk! Go to Hell!

Ooh, that was close!

Urk... He's even faster than just now!

Dammit! Our power gap is widening...

(I still have some stamina left, but Shallot's almost at his limit!)

(There's one more of those beans left...)

(I need to save it for when I'm close to death again, to raise my power level once more!)

Ho ho, Vegeta... You still have another ace up your sleeve, don't you?

...!

If that's the case, then the respectable option would be to wait...

But I'm not that kind!

Agh?!

Shallot!

You're half dead anyway, so let me help you go the full way! Ho ho ho!

Oh yeah? Let's see you try!

Ho ho ho, yes Shallot! That's the spirit!

Dance for me, until you can dance no more!

Urgh... Grngh!

Graaah!

Friezaaa!

Ngh... Nrrrrngh?!

Whoa, Vegeta!

Quick, Shallot! Eat this!

That's the last Senzu Bean! You saved me, Vegeta!

Alright! Full power!

(What's wrong with me?! Why did I choose to give that damn bean to Shallot instead of myself?!)

(Wait, Shallot's a Saiyan too... His power level should've increased by a mile with this! If we work together, then just maybe...)

Hmph, you've used that strange tool or whatnot to heal your wounds again, I see.

Don't play dumb, Frieza! You know we haven't just treated our wounds!

We are Saiyans! And now you've seen two of us surpass even death to raise our power levels!

The real fight begins now!

Nghn!

No way... I can see it! His movements were impossible to track earlier, but now...!

Good, Shallot! It seems the tides have finally turned in our favor.

Hmph. You Saiyans are a hardy bunch.

Heh, it's a shame you should learn the true dread of the Saiyan race on your deathbed, Frieza!

We'll destroy your strongest form and teach you not to underestimate us ever again!

...My strongest form?

?!

You were referring to this form as my strongest, correct?

What are you getting at...

My dear Vegeta, I still have one more transformation left.

The hell?! You gotta be kidding!

He has power above even this?!

Well, I need to thank you for entertaining me so much until now.

So behold! My last transformation...

My true form!

He's a monster...!

Dammit... And we really thought we could beat him?!

Whew...

I never did believe in the so-called legendary "Super Saiyan", the one said to be the strongest ever Saiyan.

But the fact that you have pushed me to use this form has made me realize that it may not be just a legend.

Saiyans are a dangerous bunch.

I will make sure to eradicate each and every last one of you.

...

It seems we were foolish...

Vegeta...?

Our fates are sealed...

Now then, I've gone all this way to transform! You'll play with me, won't you? Little Saiyans...

Agh, Vegeta, this is NOT good!

...

HEY! VEGETA! Are you listening?!

Oh dear, oh dear... It seems he's completely lost the will to fight!

But I must commend his brains. It is a wise move to make. I guess you are a prince, even if the prince of apes.

Shut it!

I'll start with you, seeing as you just won't give up. Have a taste of my benevolence!

Ngh!

You wanted to go down fighting, didn't you? Show me what've you got and DIE!

... It's over...

I thought Saiyans LOVED fighting? Come on, then!

Rgh... Dammit...

Dammit all!

...

It didn't even faze him!

Huh? Are you not going to attack me?

No way...

Oh, I see! That feeble attempt WAS your attack! Heh heh heh!

Urk!

My sincerest apologies. It seems the rift in our powers has been made evident.

...!!

*pant* *pant*

What's wrong, my dear Shallot? I doubt this can even be called a fight!

Shallot...

You won't even call this a fight?!

Don't talk like this is over! I still haven't given up!

...!!!

My, my...

I was looking forward to seeing your disgusting face be stained with despair at long last...

But you pitiful ape just never learn your place even at death's door!

Gah!

Your impudence infuriates me!

SHALLOT!

Gaaaaagh!

What? Vegeta?

!! ...Vegetaaa!!!

Vegeta!!

Grmph!

W-Why'd you do this?! Just why...

What the hell are you doing protecting me for?!

This... This isn't...

This isn't you, dammit!

Ugh... Ngh... I saw...in you...

True...Saiyan pride...

Pride?

Saiyan pride? Hah... Ha ha ha! Don't make me laugh, Vegeta!

Where's the pride in a pitiful race who submitted themselves to my every demand?

Yeah... You're not wrong... That pitiful state...of the Saiyans near me...

...is what caused our downfall...

We tossed our pride in battling away... and even worse...served our power as a tool to please Frieza...

I will not accept that...! That is not true Saiyan pride...!

Shallot... You are a Saiyan untainted by all that...

So...fight... Defeat Frieza... He must be taken down by a Saiyan's hands...for the sake of our pride...

Finally dead, huh?

Pride? Asking a kid like this to defeat me? Oh Vegeta, you did make me laugh, right to the end.

...

I guess the fear of death knocked a few screws loose! No one can defeat me! Ah, what a sad, pitiful end... Heh heh heh.

...

When it comes to battle, you better not hesitate in doing what needs to be done, unless you want to be on the losing side.

If you do, you better forget about any goals or pride, because you won't be able to protect a thing!

I realize now, Vegeta. You were ALWAYS fighting...

Even as a lackey to Frieza, you still tried to hold on to that pride.

Are you talking about his useless attempts to get a jump on me? What a pitiful excuse for pride.

Shut up!

But in the end, Saiyan pride will amount to nothing more than that!

I said, shut up!

Maybe you should worry about yourself instead of drowning in piteous delusions.

SHUT THE HELL UP!

What the!

What do you know?!

About Vegeta... About us Saiyans?!

What is this?! I thought Saiyans only transformed into Giant Apes!

Wait, no... This can't be?!

You will die here and now, Frieza! By my Saiyan hands!

I'm going to bring back Vegeta's and the Saiyan race's pride!

Hmph. You Saiyans are all apes in the end!

I don't care even if you are that legendary Super Saiyan...

I will not lose to some Saiyan!

I told you not to underestimate us Saiyans, Friezaaa!

No... No! Why is this happening? You're just a mere Saiyan...

A mere Saiyan? No, Frieza...

This is the power of...

A Super Saiyan!

Gah...Hrngh...!

... Heh... Heh heh heh! I'll admit it, it seems you MAY be a Super Saiyan.

I'd presumed it's just a stupid fairy tale...

But if it were to exist, then someone like Vegeta would be the one to transform.

...

So why...

WHY IS IT YOU?! Why did a stupid child like yourself transform into a Super Saiyan?!

I won't accept it!

I won't believe it! Damn it all!!

This isn't allowed to happen! It can't be! This is just a nightmare! I'm Frieza! Lord Frieza!

Stop your blubbing and come at me!

I won't forgive you, even if you get down on your knees and beg for it!

Nnnnngaaah!

Say your prayers! Frieza!

Listen! I'd rather finish myself off than have my end be at your hands...

I don't give a crap what you prefer! Either way I'm gonna crush you!

Heh... heh heh...! But I'm not going to die...

...! The Fruit of the Tree of Might!

Heh heh, in normal circumstances I wouldn't sink so low as to rely on such thing...

But I'd prefer the shame of using this than being killed by you!

...

I'll tell you one thing before I kill you. You strength was rather impressive, Super Saiyan...

But in the end, Frieza always wins!

Eat your damn fruit, I don't care! No matter how strong you get, I'll surpass it!

You'll eat those words!

I'm going to silence that loud mouth of yours!

You'll regret ever facing me, Shallooott!

This is the end, Friezaaa!

Urgh... *pant*

*pant* *pant* ...See who's pitiful now...

Whaaat?!

You forced your Ki up by transforming, and on top of that by eating that stupid fruit...

Your body can't take it anymore. It's falling apart... It's all over, Frieza!

No... No! DAMN YOUUUU!

This isn't possible! There's no way!

I'm the strongest in the universe!

That's all crap, Frieza. There's so many stronger than you in this era!

This isn't real... This can't be truuue!!!

Just give it up already!

And go die!

Aah... Aaaaagh!!

...

Ngh... Urgh...

*pant* *pant*

I did it... Heh... I won! How'd ya like that?!

I finally took back our pride as Saiyans...

Vegeta... Nappa...
