Chapitre 114: Ch. 114: Prepping for Frieza

"Kakarot's daughter, what did you do!?" Vegeta asked me, stopping his attack upon seeing Ginyu's body start ribbiting. Meanwhile, I picked up the real Ginyu and sealed him into his body.

"Ha, Vegeta, that frog in Hanna's hands...? That's the real Ginyu."

"No way." Vegeta let out a laugh, seeing Ginyu caught in my hands like a bug. "Give him here, I think it's time for squished frog." 

"He's pretty slimy, Vegeta. You sure you want to get it all over you?" I asked him. Vegeta looked at the frog in my hands again, before scoffing. "You're right. He's not worth it. It'll be better for him to spend a long, full lifetime dragging his belly through the mud."

"Huh. So much trouble, now just a frog." Piccolo muttered, watching me let Ginyu's frog-self go. There was nothing else that Ginyu could do, now. If I were Ginyu, I'd have learned how to surpass my frog-body's natural limits and use ki, even if it took me years, in order to try to live a normal life, but Ginyu wasn't strong-willed enough to even try. Maybe one day, he'd become the king of Capsule Corp's pond, but that was the greatest thing he could strive for in this life anymore. He'd been defanged for sure.

"You want trouble, just wait until Frieza gets here. You'd better all be ready, because he'll kill all of you weaklings." Vegeta replied to Piccolo's muttering. "Nappa, get Kakarot into the back-up resuscitation pod. We need him to recover before Frieza gets here, and from the look on Raditz's face, you're out of whatever you used to heal the rest of us." He ordered, walking back towards the gangplank entrance to Frieza's ship.

"And what will you be doing?" Piccolo stopped him.

"Taking a nap. Is that okay with your highness?" Vegeta asked sarcastically, "Since we don't know where the Dragon Balls are hidden, I'm going to take a nap while the rest of you look for them."

"And what makes you think we'll wake you up once we're ready to make our wish?" Piccolo asked him.

"If I'm not immortal when we face Frieza, then we won't have a Super Saiyan on our side during the fight. Frieza will kill you all, and you're not stupid enough to take that risk. Plus, if I sense anybody leaving this area, I will catch them, and you will not like what I do next." Vegeta answered confidently. With that, he disappeared into the ship.

Krillin was the first one to talk after Vegeta disappeared into the ship. "Good thing he doesn't know about the Dragon Radar, huh?" He joked.

"Vegeta's a lot of things, but he's not wrong about this." Nappa told Krillin, unexpectedly jumping to Vegeta's side. "We were told that we get three wishes. One of them needs to be Vegeta's conditional immortality." He said, working with Raditz to pick up the half-unconscious Goku. The two of them ambulated him into the ship while they talked about the benefits and drawbacks of making Vegeta immortal.

Eventually, they came to an impasse. I didn't want to vote, Nappa, Raditz, and unexpectedly Piccolo were pro-immortal Vegeta, while Gohan, Krillin, and Goku were anti-immortal Vegeta, even conditionally. We ended up deciding to use one of the wishes to wish our friends back, a second one to evacuate all the non-combatants on Namek to Earth, and then wait and see whether we'd use the third wish for Vegeta or not. I knew it wasn't going to turn out that way, though. I could tell that Frieza was currently beating on Nail, which meant that he'd be here before we finished the journey to the Namekian village that we'd need to get to in order to make the wishes at all.

Mentally making sure that Goku's recovery time would be in the Core Girls' hands, I spent the few minutes that we had left before Frieza got here helping everyone else dig up Dragon Balls that wouldn't get to be used before Guru died.

...

'Mr. Guru.' A voice echoed in Guru's head. He immediately knew who it belonged to.

'Mrs. Hanna's subordinate. Thank you for ensuring that a village full of my children is still surviving.' Guru immediately thanked Chelsea for the fact that some of his children were still alive in the village that Nappa had been protecting. While it wasn't Hanna's plan, it was because of Hanna's interference that they were alive, so Chelsea accepted the thanks graciously, but that wasn't why she'd contacted Guru.

'It is all because of my Mistress, but that is not why I am contacting you. We intend to use our own powers to bring the rest of your children back to life once it is safe for them, but if the Namekian Dragon Balls are used, it may put a thorn in the Mistress's plans.' Chelsea explained to Guru.

'I see. So you have a power similar to my own Dragon Balls that you plan on using. It eases my mind to know. Do you want me to make the Namekian Dragon Balls inactive until you say otherwise?' Guru asked her.

'I wish, but there is a chance that, if you consciously make the Dragon Balls inactive, then the existence of Mistress's plan may come to light, and the ones meant to fight Frieza may learn that they have a 'safety net' of sorts. That would be really bad for Mistress. We were planning on temporarily killing you at a certain moment.' In canon, Guru had died just as the wish for Vegeta to become immortal had been vocalized, stopping Porunga from granting it.

But this time, it was safer to ensure that it was impossible for any wishes to be granted at all. They likely wouldn't just wish one friend or another back, after all. They were probably just going to wait for the Earth Dragon Balls to be usable again and use the other two wishes for something more 'Frieza-killing' centered. It was entirely possible that they'd make both Goku and Vegeta temporarily immortal, or something just as stupid. That needed to be avoided at all costs, but every single Namekian on the planet, even including Piccolo, would likely be able to tell when Guru died.

If Guru was alive, yet the Dragon Balls weren't, then they would likely deduce that he was getting orders from someone who'd offered him something big, so Shay's bringing the planet's populace back to life would end up being seen as a 'payment to Guru,' rather than a 'random whim.' 

'I understand. That is fine.' Guru immediately agreed to Chelsea's proposal. It perturbed him that he'd be killed, but he didn't fear anything more than losing his children, not even temporary death, so he'd follow Chelsea's instructions to a tee, even if it meant lying to Dende and watching Nail suffer and die.
