Boom! A large explosion engulfed several Namekian Warriors.
"Alright, I've taken care of those annoying pests. Don't tell me I need to do everything myself? I can't
have my handsome self be blemished by their dirty blood." Zarbon said casually, retracted his outstretched hand and patted his clothes.
"Yes sir! Sir Zarbon, thank you for your assistance! We can handle the rest!" Dozens of Frieza henchmen bowed and shouted deeply.
The henchmen started surrounding the village and aimed their beam guns at the Namekians.
Swish! Raditz suddenly appeared right in the middle of the village with his two fingers pointing at his forehead.
"Raditz!" Zarbon yelled in shock. He had already learned that Raditz had annihilated the Ginyu Force and had a battle power of 620,000! Zarbon's own measly battle power stood no chance against Raditz.
"Oh, if it isn't Zarbon." Raditz gave a jeering look at Zarbon.
"Wait! Raditz!" Zarbon hurriedly shouted in panic upon seeing Raditz walk toward him.
"Not interested. Die!" Raditz was not in the mood to play around and pointed two fingers at Zarbon.
Bang! Large amounts of invisible and unconcentrated Ki gathered on Zarbon's body, turned volatile and exploded his body into mincemeat.
"Oh no! Sir Zarbon was killed by the traitor Raditz!" The henchmen yelled and escaped in panic.
"Where do you lot think you're going? Let's try this out. Clones!" Raditz looked at the several dozens of men running in different directions. He decided to try out the clone technique he had learned from Elder Souma.
Raditz split out 10 strands of his spirit and split out 10 clones from his body, each evenly distributed with 5,000 battle power.
The 10 Raditz clones looked curiously for a moment before they took to the sky and chased after the escaping men.
"Interesting..." Because he had split out a strand of his spirit to control each of his clones, he had some level of awareness of what his clones experienced. But due to the limited amount of spirits, the their control of their bodies and Ki was ridiculously weak and 5,000 battle power would suffice for them to fully control their power. Unless he was willing to split out a larger piece of his spirit, but that will in return weaken his control of his original body and Ki.
It wasn't like splitting his spirit in half, he would have one with 50% of his strength, instead, both his original body and his clone would be able to use about a third of his original strength regardless of whether Raditz distributed 50% of his Ki or not. Though he would gain the advantage of numbers, it was still a big loss of battle power. Because Raditz was not really interested in the clone technique, he had not furthered his practice on this technique to lessen the loss of power.
Half a minute later, the 10 clones returned and fused back into Raditz's main body.
Raditz spent a few minutes talking to the village elder and teleported back to Grand Elder Moori with a Dragon Ball.
Even though the enemies had been taken care of by Raditz, there was no telling if more enemies would show up. The villagers would make their way to Grand Elder Moori. Luckily the Namekians were born with enough Ki to fly even without training.
Raditz handed over the Dragon Ball to Grand Elder Moori. A few moments later, Goku and Piccolo teleported back with their group and also handed over their Dragon Balls.
"Good, now we got 4 Dragon Balls. Only Trunks' and Nail's are left." Raditz nodded.
Two Namekian kids kept staring at Piccolo curiously.
"Those two look like Dende... But then again they all look so similar. But since they're looking at Piccolo like that, I bet they feel that Piccolo resembles Nail a lot." Raditz thought.
"What do you want?" Piccolo frowned and asked.
"Ah! No! It's nothing. It's just that you look very similar to our big brother Nail." Dende and Cargo said sheepishly.
...
In a Namekian Village, several Namekian Warriors were besieging Nappa. Vegeta was confronting Nail.
"Damned! How dare you spill my noble blood!" Vegeta spit out some blood and wiped off the blood on his lips with his sleeve. His scouter had a reading limit of 24,000 battle power and had exploded upon scanning Nail.
"Evil being! You stand no chance against me." Nail said calmly.
"Damn you! Damn you! I'll kill you! I'll kill you!!" Vegeta roared.
"You're deluded, I'll send you to hell." Nail prepared to finish off Vegeta.
"Hahaha! I'll show you our real strength! The true strength of us Saiyans!" Vegeta said proudly and produced a Power Ball. His Ki lowered significantly, but it was worth it to transform into a Great Ape with this artificial moon.
"Burst open and intermix!" Vegeta threw the Power Ball up to the sky and clenched his fist. The fist-sized Power Ball exploded and a shining ball as big as the sun appeared.
"Hahaha!" Vegeta laughed and looked at the artificial moon.
"Hahaha! Great job, Vegeta!" Nappa had been badly suppressed by these several Namekian Warriors' great teamwork. He quickly raised his head and looked at the artificial moon.
The two Saiyans transformed into 20 meters tall Great Apes. Although Vegeta's Ki had lowered significantly from producing the Power Ball, the Great Ape Transformation amplified their current battle power by 10x had made up for Vegeta's loss.
"W-what in tarnation!" Nail felt their Ki rapidly increase, turned so huge and oppressive that they had eclipsed his Ki.
"Time for payback!" Vegeta said sinisterly and stepped forward with a wide savage grin.
...
Raditz and the team were just leisurely hanging around while waiting for Trunks and Nail to return with the two Dragon Balls before they would go after the last one held by Frieza.
"Do you feel that?" Gohan turned his head and looked at the distance.
Raditz, Goku, Piccolo, Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu all turned their heads in the same direction and looked deeply at the distance.
"Is that Frieza?" Krillin said in a worried tone.
"His Ki is so evil! It must be!" Yamcha said.
"It feels too weak though..." Raditz muttered in confusion.
"That's in the direction of Uibiko Village! Big brother Nail went to Uibiko Village!" Cargo and Dende shouted in worry.
Raditz even had the thought of waiting out for Nail to be half dead before bringing Piccolo over... But seeing the team raring to go, Raditz quickly shook off his useless thoughts.
"Let's go!" Piccolo clenched his teeth and shouted.
Everyone put their hands together, even Dende and Cargo grabbed Piccolo's clothes.
"Cargo! Stay here." Grand Elder Moori shouted.
"But..." Cargo looked at Dende.
"Dende can heal, our friends might need his help. But you'll get in their way. Be obedient and wait for them to return."
After Cargo stepped away, the team teleported over to that evil Ki.
Swish! The team appeared next to the feet of a gigantic 20 meter tall Great Ape.
"Saiyans!" The group immediately understood who they were. Both Goku and Gohan and seen the Great Ape Transformation as well.
"Raditz!" Vegeta's roar shook everyone's ears.
"Vegeta." Raditz looked up at the Great Ape.
"Nail!" Dende yelled and ran up to Nail.
"Dende!" Nail said weakly. He lied on the ground without any strength left, his lower body had been crushed by Vegeta's stomp.
"I'll heal you!" Dende put his outspread palms on Nail's chests. Moments later, Nail had regained all his strength, though his lower body was still crushed.
"Let me help you." Piccolo stepped forward and ripped off Nail's lower body.
"Ewww!" Gohan felt like vomiting from seeing the guts and all purple blood splatter around.
"Huff! Thanks." Nail clenched his teeth hard to endure the pain and thanked Piccolo for ripping off his lower body.
"HAAAAH!" Nail took a deep breath and clenched his fists hard, his blood vessels popped out as he clenched his teeth and shouted. Magically, he sprouted out a whole new lower body in a single moment. Disgusting greenish-yellow liquid spurted out with his newly grown lower body.
"This is so crazy! Are Namekians immortal?" Krillin said in shock.
Because Nail had to regenerate his whole lower body, his Ki dropped to a very low level and he was panting in exhaustion. Dende hurriedly healed Nail again and restored his energy.
"Piccolo, destroy that artificial moon." Raditz said to Piccolo.
Piccolo nodded and shoot a Special Beam Cannon at the brightly shining artificial moon hanging in the sky. The beam penetrated the moon, then as if the artificial moon lost its equilibrium, the whole moon distorted and compressed into a fist-sized ball before a thunderous explosion occurred.
Vegeta and Nappa reverted back to their human forms with great exhaustion. The Great Ape Transformation required a lot of energy, once the transformation ceased, they would feel the exhaustion.
"I'll kill you!" Piccolo gnashed his teeth after seeing the numerous Namekian corpses behind Vegeta and Nappa. The ruined buildings and scattered blood.
Piccolo flew to Vegeta and readied his knife-hand to stab Vegeta with.
"Wait! Piccolo, don't kill him!" Goku hurriedly shouted in shock. Due to Trunks existence, Goku did not dare to let Piccolo kill Vegeta.
"Why? Son Goku are you protecting him because you're fellow Saiyans?" Piccolo looked angrily at Goku.
"This..! I can't tell you, but just trust me! You can't kill Vegeta!" Goku was in a dilemma. Trunks had urged him to not tell others the identity of his parents, worried that they would become conscious of their future and change it.
While they were bickering, Vegeta had surreptitiously picked up his scouter and turned it on. Earlier, he had transformed into a 20 meter tall giant Great Ape and had no way to wear the scouter.
"Hahaha! Lord Frieza! Raditz is here!" Vegeta laughed sinisterly.
"Damn he's so scheming. If I didn't brink Trunks to Planet Namek, I would not dare to confront Frieza." Raditz at Vegeta in contempt for being so dirty.
"Damned bastard! He calling for Frieza!" Piccolo cursed and readied to kill Vegeta again. Although there were numerous Namekian corpses strewn around, this was still a Namekian Village, there are still many Namekians alive. If Frieza were to come and do battle with them, the casualties would be enormous.
