42 Chapter 40 - The Advent of Saiyans

Four flaming balls appeared in the sky out of nowhere and hurled towards the inner city. The howling sound of a meteor alerted everyone before it crashed uplifting debris everywhere. The civilians barely were able to get out of the way and prevent any serious injury.

The crowd gathered around the four craters discussing what it could possibly be.

"An attack! Bombs and missiles from those Soviets!"

"Magic! Wizards in an epic duel crash-landed here!"

"ALIENS! ITS THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!"

One outlandish claim triumphs the one previous and it went on for a while. All the commotion stopped when the door of the sphere burst opened revealing a person inside. His flame-like hair flowed through the wind as he looked around at the vermin that surrounded him.

"Hmph, a decent planet littered with trash." Flying up, he looked down with contempt. His allies also left their pods and met up with Vegeta.

"There is a high battle power not far from here, one of 10,000. Not too bad for a low-class Saiyan like Kakarrot.

At the sound of Kakarrot, Vegeta's forehead had a small vein spurt out of nowhere. The girl beside him that reported the battle power snickered at the short man's seething anger. Short objectively speaking of course since she was around the same height as him.

"Let's go there this instant! I want to see this traitorous Kakarrot for myself and show him what the power of Saiyan royalty truly is!"

Vegeta took off in that direction instantly. The 3 others just looked at each other before taking off to join him.

---

Four power levels were approaching him and fast. He asked all the others to stay out of this racial feud by turning down their power levels. He was getting anxious feeling not knowing who these two new Saiyans were. From their power levels that he was able to detect, the two new power levels were in the middle of the pack, fairly stronger than the last and fairly weaker than the first who was rocketing towards him at mach speed.

Raditz was beside him waiting as well. Gohan and Bulla were in the distance looking over at the fight like it was a picnic.

Vegeta came first like a fiery missile to their location. When he arrived, he was even more infuriated when Goku and Raditz were just waiting for him to show up.

"So you are Kakarrot the low-class Saiyan? I will show you what will happen when you insult the Prince of all Saiyans!" Vegeta was flying at him like a raging bull. Raditz took a step back but realized he didn't need to when Vegeta's fist was stopped with Goku's hand.

"Impossible! A Saiyan elite like myself unable blocked by a simple grab from trash like you?" Vegeta pulled his fist back and jumped away. He felt no resistance from Goku and when he turned to look at him, he still has the same calm expression.

Vegeta was now sweating bullets and have Goku a fierce expression.

'We have been tricked to come here!'

His only option was to wait until his subordinates arrive to make the situation more towards their favor.

"You are quite strong Kakarrot, unexpected coming from a pod baby. How did you grow so strong? Why do you want us Saiyans here?" Stalling the play by asking some questions. It will also give him some insight as to why Goku obviously provoked him here.

"You figured out that I wanted you here for a reason, as expected from the ruler of all Saiyans. I will tell you after some introductions." Vegeta was feeling more uncomfortable by the second. Thankfully, the others came right on schedule.

One after another they landed next to Vegeta. Shock could not describe what he was feeling when he saw the two girls that accompanied the tall bald man. They were people that physically could not be in this universe, people that should be either babies or not born yet!

"Caulifla...that man is looking at us weird..." The slightly taller one with a pineapple hair looked towards the shorter one with worry.

"Hmph, that is probably Kakarrot. Pervert probably has never been with a woman like his brother Raditz."

"Hahaha! Raditz you traitorous bastard! I finally have a reason to kill you after all these years and you are damn sure that I will!" The tallest one of the group, Nappa, stepped forward ignorantly to approach Raditz.

"Nappa stop!" Like a well-trained dog, Nappa stopped in his steps. All three of his Saiyans looked at him strangely. He didn't explain why and motioned for Nappa to come back. Before he can, however, Goku interrupted him.

"It's alright Vegeta, Raditz would actually like to fight Nappa alone." Vegeta knew something was going on behind the scenes. The most likely scenario is that Goku trained Raditz similar to himself. This means that Nappa was going to lose but it would give him some insight on what kind he has gone through and how much he has grown because of it.

"Haha! It looks like your brother wants to give you a quick death! You have always been beneath me and now you will be forever beneath me when I bury you in the ground!"

A big bad bully. That is what Nappa was to Raditz. Since the day he was assigned to be with him and Vegeta to the day that came to seek Goku. Always living in fear of dying and finally, he felt liberated.

"HA" Raditz had fury in his eyes as he rushed towards Nappa. Underestimating his enemy, as usual, Nappa just stood there, menacingly!

"Go, Uncle Raditz!" Everyone finally took notice of the two hybrids on the other hill. Their tails caught the attention of the prince making him sweat even more.

The sudden intake of pain was surely a surprise. Flying through the air, he stabilized himself and saw Raditz following up his attack. He punched back with his hand coated in ki, but all he punch was air. Raditz flew behind him incredibly fast and closed his fist to hammer him back to the ground.

"Wow, are you sure this is the useless Raditz that we know? His power level is close to mine! Nappa you weakling, do yourself a favor, and renounce your Saiyan heritage if you are going to lose to a low-class like Raditz!" What drugs did this guy take?

"Shut up you infuriating sl*t! I will show you woman that I am worthy of being Vegeta's right-hand man...wait, wait Raditz!" Nappa emerged from the ground by crawling. He was extremely frightened at the enormous strength that his little partner suddenly gotten.

(Flashback)

"Hahaha! This is too funny!" Nappa was laughing heartily. He was watching his partner getting beat up by a small green germ. The Saibaman ran up and tackled Raditz to the ground and left him with a black eye. He got off and ran back towards Nappa.

"Uhhh." He was dizzy and got back up. He looked at Nappa resentfully but when their eyes met he shrunk back.

"Hmph." Nappa took out more seeds from his pocket. Planting then watering them, three more Saibamen grew from the ground. "Go get him."

---

Raditz landed near Goku and planned to finish Nappa off. He put both his hands up and purple lights started to emit from them.

"Double Sunday!"

Two beams of light with spirals came rushing towards Nappa at record speed. He didn't have enough time to dodge so he could only block. A fume of smoke came Nappa's location until he was sent flying back.

Landing right before Vegeta, he had burn marks all over him from the blast. Coughing a little bit, he opened his eyes and looked up towards Vegeta.

"Raditz is too strong. Please help me Vegeta." Vegeta didn't even look at Nappa but straight at Raditz. His growth was too astonishing and he was trying to decipher how he could have possibly gotten this strong.

Finally looking down at his own general, he scoffed at the weakness and uselessness of him. He and the girls were on the elite class and he was a middle-class; now beaten by the weakest of the bunch. The disappointment was immeasurable. Reaching out his hand, he assured Nappa that he was a benevolent leader.

That was until he was thrown in the air. Everyone knew what was coming and frankly, no one cared. You live the life of a dog biting every dog smaller than you, you will eventually provoke the wrong one. And no one will care.

"I have no need for weaklings like you!" There was no need for grandeur as all he needed to finish off the Saiyan was a ki blast. Goku did nothing to stop it or have a change in emotion. Vegeta is evil but with his intelligence and emotion, he was able to change his outlook in life. From all he knew of Nappa, all he cared about was the thrill of the fight and torture. He was brainless and ruthless. He did not care if he survived or not.

Raditz was on a high, obliterating Nappa was incredible for his self-confidence. The way he thrashed the big man around, he felt like he could beat Vegeta no problem.

"Come at me Vegeta! I will show you true hell!" He was able to rush off into battle once more until Goku stopped him.

"Brother..."

"You have improved a lot with training your body and learning ki, but you can't face him." His excitement was popped like a balloon and was able to protest until he saw the look in Goku's eyes. it was saying that he wasn't weak, but not strong enough.

Goku has been training his brother in gravity and learning about the wonders of ki. He however noticed a very important detail that affects his training. Although he had the motivation and drive, his innate talent was nowhere near Goku's or Vegeta's. It took him longer to endure higher gravity and harder for him to learn techniques.

His growth was improving by leaps and bounds no doubt, but Goku and Vegeta's talent are through the roof compared to normal Saiyans.

"Getting called back by your little brother? Too scared to face someone actually strong? You have gone lower than I thought Raditz despite your power boost!" Caulifla mocked Raditz relentlessly. She never really toyed around with Raditz as Nappa did, she mostly mocked anyone she could, even Vegeta. With her near-prodigal talent, she was the only one able to keep up with Vegeta.

"Shut up! My brother is stronger than all of you combined! With his help, I was able to have my revenge on you! Kakarrot, surely I can match Caulifla!"

Rolling his eyes at his brother's battle-hungry side, he gently pushed him and gestured to the kids. He conceded and went to sit with the kids who had popcorn in their hands.

Vegeta stepped forward and without saying anything, he motioned for the girls to also leave the scene so he could fight. He might've blocked his punch earlier but surely he isn't that much stronger than him. As transparent as a window, Vegeta's thoughts escaped towards everyone there.

They were Saiyans, rough, and tough, but they were also girls wanting to enjoy a battle between two powerhouses. The picnic blanket was large enough for the girls to join and they did when the cute little kids waved them down. Better than standing or sitting in the sand.

Caulifla could not stand kids so she sat at the very edge of the blanket while Kale sat next to her and Gohan. Gohan was extremely friendly to everyone he meets only being mischievous with Bulla sometimes.

He handed Kale a bucket of popcorn and she looked at it curiously. She popped one in her mouth and stars started to shine in her eyes. Thanking the little man, she started chowing down.

"K-Kale what is that? Is it that good?" Looking like a chipmunk, she gave Caulifa some as well. Taking some, she also loved the buttery taste and they both looked like they were watching a movie.

'This is my only move, he is a low-class Saiyan so surely he hasn't trained his mind in that form. It will equal the playing field.'

Conjuring a small round power ball in his hand, he sent it flying behind the spectators so that they wouldn't transform. It would be a 4v3 if that happened and he didn't want to risk to see if those kids were monsters either.

Transforming into the Ape Form, everything was bigger and better than before. Hair was everywhere but also covered by his stretched armor. The only way for his opponent to win was to also transform but lose his sanity in the process. Genius!

Well, technically, he didn't need to transform to beat the Giant Ape before him but he looked at the 'moon' to humor him. Vegeta expected a Giant Ape vs. Giant Ape, not whatever was happening right now...
