In the previous chapter the Z-Fighters: Krillin, Yamacha, Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Chiaotzu, and Tien encountered a strange enemy during the world martial arts tournament. During the encounter, Krillin dies as well as Yamacha, but Chiaotzu makes a drastic decision to save his friends.
Watching helplessly as their friends were being obliterated, Chiaotzu came up with a risky plan to get rid of the enemy threat, at least that was the plan.
Chiaotzu: "GoodBye Tien..."
Tien: "What?"
Chiaotzu sneaks behind the figure and latches onto its back, moments later Chiaotzu blows himself up in hopes it'll take out the strange enemy, but he was wrong. Tien screams and the figure is only merely stunned for a bit. Rukai looks to see the figures head on the floor but recognizes that the head was just a helmet. As the smoke clears, he sees a girl with long hair. Her eyes were black, and her pupils were orange. Zombie finally caught up to them and noticed the glare, he then pointed out that she is being controlled by the dilation in her eyes. Everyone looks back and is startled by his presence, neither of them knowing who Zombie was. Goku turns into super saiyan blue and charges a Kamehameha.
Zombie: "Using that will not work because of the suit of armor she has on, so save your energy"
Goku: "What do you mean? What does the armor have to do with anything it's just a scrap of metal."
Zombie: "No that isn't just normal metal, the metal the suit is made out of is alive and eats all energy attacks to build its durability."
Goku: "You lost me..."
Vegeta: "It would be something as painful as that"
Zombie: "I shall lend you a hand"
Vegeta started to scream as the area around him started to get dragged in. The sky and the clouds started to rip apart and Vegeta started to sparkle as his hair turned royal blue. Goku looks at Vegeta and gets inspired soon after Goku takes advantage of the moment to turn Kaioken Super Saiyan Blue to make his power skyrocket. The girl in the suit of armor vanished and appeared over Goku as she put her hands in the air and clenched them together slamming them down on Goku's head. Vegeta dashes over to hit her but misses, she swung her arms as fast as she could at Vegeta's face, but the impact didn't seem to affect him.
Vegeta: "Ha! Is that all you got, so pathetic"
Vegeta clenched his fist punching the mystery woman in the stomach spinning kicking her across the face sending her flying as she crashed into the ground. Rukai and Zombie watch the fight as they go over to Goku.
Rukai: "Hi man you gotta get up! They won't be able to fight her alone"
Zombie: "We can't just sit back and do nothing! I'm going to help him!"
Zombie charges up dashing up to the sky to join in on the fight. Rukai notices that Goku wasn't responding and basically out cold as piccolo shows up appearing in the skyline. He throws down to Rukai a bag with senzu beans in it telling him to give Goku one. Scanning the area piccolo goes off to get any remaining humans to safety as Rukai gets Goku back up to full strength.
Goku: "Whoa! That was some attack. This is getting exciting"
In the sky Vegeta and Zombie struggle to hold off the mystery women as over time all their attacks started to not faze her at all. It was almost like the armor she had on not only absorbed Ki blast attacks, but the fighter's energy as well making it her own. Unwilling to give up and be defeated by a girl Vegeta becomes enraged and charges up even more. Zombie looks at him impressed as he boosts his power as well.
Tien: "This is insane her power has shown no sign of decreasing! At this rate the others will get tired before they even put a dent in her"
Goku bursts right back into the fight throwing punches and kicks at the woman, but she dodges everything he throws at her. She leans back kicking Goku in the stomach causing him to gasp for air. Vanishing out of sight she comes up from behind knocking Goku against the stadium walls blasting him with a dark pink and purple Ki blast. Vegeta watches slightly shocked at how fast she was. Zombie cuts her vision off from Goku as he fires a powerful Ki wave at her sending her flying as he continues his attack by knocking her into the ground firing multiple Ki wave volleys at her.
Rukai: "This is crazy why is she so strong! There's no way that armor is supporting her this much in the fight. Something isn't right"
Confused and conflicted with the circumstances Rukai searches around for anyone or anything that seemed abnormal. Finding nothing around at all he takes way to the sky as he instances felt a heavy gravity shift in his body. As he looked around, he felt someone's presence near him as he turned to see another dark figure staring back at him. He grits his teeth charging at the figure swinging rapidly as it was just too fast. The figure stops one of his attacks placing its hand on Rukai's chest blasting him back, sending him flying into Goku as they both go crashing to the ground.
Vegeta: "What the!?"
As Vegeta looks back he sees the dark figure hovering over him; staring into his eyes before it back slapped him into the air then grabbing him launching him into the wall. Before he can fire off an attack at Vegeta, piccolo intervenes blasting the strange figure in the back charging and kicking it across the face sending the helmet on its head flying off. The figure started to laugh at piccolo's attempt and grab his helmet before it could hit the ground. The black figure charges a blast the size of a super spirit bomb. Piccolo charges a special beam cannon aiming at the mysterious male. The figure reflects the blast hitting a woman holding her infant trying to run away.
Rukai notices the woman's body fall to the floor and the baby is now crying and something would snap inside him. His power starts to rise dramatically, and he charged at the man swinging and missing before finally he landed a blow. Rukai keeps attacking putting dents into the armor slowly as Vegeta notices that Rukai's hair had become spikier and his aura went from dark blue to a crimson red. Through the fight the two unknown enemies would get a new order that replaces their old one.
Unknown Boss: "New objective, you see that boy attacking you? Capture him and bring him to me, he seems promising."
Unknown Male: "Right!"
Unknown Female: "Right!"
