65 Raditz vs Freeza

Raditz's surprise attack didn't work and now he was alone with no help in sight, facing off against both Freeza and King cold at once.

'Fantastic.'

Looking at the father son duo, Raditz folded his hands and kept his cool.

"I didn't take you for a coward Freeza, you called your daddy dearest to fight against a little old me."

"Does the legend scare you that much..? How pathetic."

Words filled with disgust came out of Raditz's mouth, although he was not happy with this situation he still had to keep his mind in the game.

One slip up and he is done for.

"You...! You vile monkey-"

Stopping his words mid sentence, Freeza laughed with veins wiggling on his forehead.

"Your kind is just as crude as always, but then again what else can I expect from you Saiyans."

King cold laughed along in a low voice agreeing to his son wholeheartedly.

"The legend that my son has been going on about, I came here to see for myself."

"Are you supposed to be the legend? Is this what you were afraid of Freeza?"

Veins popping with anger Freeza maintained his smirk.

"Perhaps Vegeta was out of his mind father, look Vegeta, is this is your legendary super Saiyan?"

"This is who you believed would avenge your race, how pathetic."

*Boom*

Forcefully throwing Vegeta to a mountain with a flick of his tail, Freeza clenched his fists and bent down.

A pinkish purple energy was starting to leak from his body.

Raditz had almost killed him with his last attack, Freeza was pissed and wanted nothing more than to destroy Raditz with his own hands.

"You think you can take me on with such little strength?! Well guess what monkey!"

"What you see before you is only my first form!"

"Haaaaaaa!"

A massive amount of energy leaked from Freeza, it began rampaging throughout the area taking the surviving Namekians and Vegeta with it.

Raditz cursed watching the helpless Namekians getting caught and moved swiftly to save the peaceful bunch.

Freeza himself was now protected by King cold and cold was a threat Raditz couldn't ignore, he simply didn't know if cold could transform immediately like Freeza in ROF.

Cold was keeping an eye on Raditz all this time since his last sneak attack, so instead of brashly attacking Freeza again, Raditz saved the remaining Namekians first.

He wasn't really worried as he still had his Iakri, which was upto 10 times after his recent training, 15 million power level is enough to handle them until one of them is out of the picture.

*Woosh*

Finally bringing the last Namekian out of the blast's radius, Raditz gestured at them to leave.

Freeza had already killed all his men with this forceful transformation alone, even Zarbon was dead.

At least they don't have to worry about the soldiers attacking them again.

But the Namekians didn't leave immediately, Elder Muri came to Raditz and bowed.

"Thank you, Saiyan King."

Said elder Muri, who was now the defacto leader after Guru passed away.

Raditz once again waved at them, Freeza was almost done and cold was looking at them with curious eyes, which meant danger, a lot of danger.

"Leave at once, and take my companion with you if you can."

Pointing towards the panting Vegeta, Raditz told the Namekians.

Who nodded with a bit of struggle and quickly picked up Vegeta and started running away.

King cold still looked at them funny and then at Raditz.

"What is the point of this, after we are done with you we will finish them all either way."

"If they had stayed you worms could have tried fighting together? Perhaps that would let you understand your place."

King cold said with a smile, his words just as vicious as his intent and his sentence finishing together with Freeza's transformation.

Now two second form father son were standing side by side.

Raditz let out a breath, the father son had a strange dynamic, they clearly didn't trust each other yet they acted as if they did.

As long as one falls the other would transform instantly, Raditz's best bet was waiting until some help arrives, that was one of the reasons he let Vegeta go with the Namekians.

'Here's hoping the healed Vegeta insists on coming back or they get Goku, Piccolo or Nappa to support.'

Raditz was not arrogant enough to think he can take on 100% Freeza alone, much less take on both cold and Freeza.

His idea had been to get his potential boosted by Guru after arriving at Namek, but that went absolutely nowhere.

*Thud*

Sadly giving Raditz time to think wasn't Freeza's game plan, slapping his massive tail on the ground, Freeza stared at Raditz.

"Are you done gawking at me, monkey?"

Raditz knew he couldn't delay it any longer, they were ready to act and thankfully so was he.

Lowering himself into a stance Raditz's hair began floating up, his eyes started to glow yellow and his strength was dramatically increasing.

Although King cold and Freeza were wholly unaware as they didn't know how to sense ki, but that didn't mean they couldn't see him change.

"What's this? Is this the legendary Super Saiyan? You are looking different from the rest of the monkeys."

Said Freeza with no fear whatsoever, he didn't know Raditz had long shot up beyond his second form to somewhere beyond his third.

Right now King cold and Freeza were both in their second forms, although King cold was stronger than Freeza in his second form but he was still nowhere close to the 15 million Raditz was at.

"Is this the legendary Super Saiyan...?"

Smirking ferociously Raditz vanished and appeared before Freeza's shocked eyes.

"Why don't you try it for yourself Freeza!"

*Booom*

Freeza's cheek sunk and his body ragdolled across the grassland.

"You..!"

King cold was aghast before he too was grabbed by the horns and recieved a knee straight to his nose.

*Crack*

Cracking it instantly, before he could recover from his brain being shaken Raditz took his knee back and-

*Crack!*

Rammed into cold's face again, his grip tightly on cold's horns letting him flail around with no escape.

*Booom*

*Crack*

*Booom*

*Craaack!*

King cold was now in tremendous pain and doing whatever he could to push Raditz away, who was holding on with his full strength.

But as King cold's actions became more and more violent, something finally happened.

*Snap!*

"Aaagh!"

Cold's eyes became bloodshot, from his disgraceful treatment or from his horns which were now broken and held in Raditz's hands, he didn't know.

But instead of rushing back to Raditz like Freeza would have, cold backed away immediately.

'He's backing away..? He is different from Freeza alright, he is the one who would rather use tricks to defeat Trunks.'

Cold was a man who was more shrewd than he was a fighter, cold would say anything to get your guard down and then backstab you right after.

"Wait, Saiyan king-"

"Nope!"

*Booom*

Another punch hit cold's gut, his mouth opened wide from the sheer pain he was feeling but Freeza's race's resistance to damage was second to none.

Except for Buu maybe, but besides that Freeza's durability was the highest in Dragonball so far.

'Getting cut in half form waist down? He's fine, blowing up with Namek without defending himself? He's fine, getting absolutely destroyed by SS Iakri Broly? He's fine.'

No way was Raditz going to be convinced cold had taken any real damage before he actually kicks the bucket.

*Booom*

And so began Raditz's beatdown of cold and Freeza whenever he returned for some more, curiously this situation was eerily similar to Broly railing on Freeza.

With with Freeza being in the receiving end of Iakri, but Raditz knew this wouldn't continue for long, it was only a matter of time before one of them manages break the game.

Either by transforming or straight away going for the z fighters, he fully expected King cold to do this, but this would work out in his favour.

'All the z fighters are together against the Ginyu force, cold will only dig his own grave.'

Knowing that Raditz simply ignored the glint in cold's eyes and focused on Freeza more, cold needed to leave before he could give it his all against Freeza.
