A guide to all the sagas in Dragonball Z

The Saiyan Saga

The Arrival Of Radditz
It has been 5 years since the end of Dragonball. This is now the start of a brand new series and Saga. Anyway, the saga begins with an unidentified spaceship crash landing on the earth. When the door to the spacecraft opens it is revealed that the figure is none other then Goku's older Brother Radditz. After easily disposing of a farmer with his shotgun, Radditz turns on his scouter on discovers a strong ki reading, that belonging to Piccolo. Radditz then proceeds to fly towards Piccolo. On to Son Goku, who now has a 4 year old child, we later learn he is named Son Gohan, named after Goku's late grandfather. Gohan before taking a visit to see Goku's friends at the kame house demonstrates some very remarkable powers that Goku has never seen before.
Goku flying on top of Kinto cloud (Flying Nimbus) with his five year old son Gohan holding on to him (first time we see Gohan). Goku is flying towards the Kame house, when he arrives Goku introduces Gohan to Master Roshi, Krillen and Bulma. Meanwhile Radditz has just caught up to Piccolo, after a little talk, blocking Piccolo's ki shot and kicking his ass, Radditz flies off to find his brother 'Kakarot', Piccolo decides to follow him.

Radditz arrives on Kame House to confront his brother. Goku doesn't know him and asks what he's doing here. Radditz asks Goku why he hasn't prepared the Earth to be sold yet. He also reveals a secret that will change Dragonball forever, that Goku is a Saiyan (Saiya-jin). Goku says that he is an Earthling and he was raised on Earth, next Radditz finds out that Goku got rid of his tail (the true power behind a Saiyan) and that Goku bumped his head when he was a baby and forgot his mission. Radditz asks if Goku wants to help him take over the world, which Goku denies. Outraged, Radditz kicks the crap out of Krillen and Goku and kidnaps Gohan. When Radditz leaves with Gohan Piccolo arrives to the scene. He says that the only way Goku can beat Radditz is if Goku teams up with Piccolo, Goku reluctantly accepts Piccolo's offer. Together they fly off the find Radditz and to rescue Gohan.

Goku and Piccolo arrives on scene to battle Radditz. I'm not going to explain the scenes mainly because Radditz just beats the crap out of Goku and Piccolo easily (plus I can't remember the fights). During the fight Piccolo realizes that they can't beat Radditz hand-to-hand so he decides to power up his signature move, the Makankosappo (Special Beam Cannon). Piccolo charges up and fires it at Radditz which Radditz barely dodges. Radditz then knocks Piccolo flat on his green ass. When it looks like that the fight is over Goku grabs Radditz's tail causing severe pain to him. Goku has Radditz at his mercy but Radditz was clever enough to trick Goku into letting him go. Radditz then pounds on Goku.

Meanwhile, Gohan who is inside Radditz's spaceship, hearing his fathers cries gets all pissed off and destroys Radditz's ship. Gohan flys at Radditz and breaks through his armor. This really pisses off Radditz and he starts to advance on Gohan, this distraction allows Goku to grap Radditz from behind. Goku then tells Piccolo to charge up another Makankosappo, Which Piccolo readily agrees. Piccolo charges it up and fires it at Radditz, this time he gets a direct hit, the cannon goes through Radditz but also goes through Goku as well. This is Goku's first ever death in Dragonball. After the fight Piccolo tells Master Roshi that he's taking Gohan for a year of training, cause some point during the battle with Radditz, he finds out there are Dragonballs that can grant wishes. Radditz's scouter sends this information out to two other Saiyans, Nappa and Vegeta. The two Saiyans decide to travel to Earth the get the Dragonballs so that they can wish for immortality. This trip will take approximately one year to complete. That explains why Piccolo is training Gohan to help fight the Saiyans. Thus ends the first half of the Saiyan saga.

The Arrival of Nappa and Vegeta
There is not much to say about the year in between Radditz and the arrival of the two other Saiyans. Krillen, Tien, Yamcha, and Chao-zu went to train under Kami-Sami, Gohan trained under Piccolo, and Piccolo destroyed the moon :) . Goku, who is dead, goes to train under Kaio-Sama (King Kai) which is at the end of snake way. It takes him about 9 months or so to reach the end. Goku trains under King Kai until the Saiyans arrive. Goku also learns about his Saiyan heritage and about the ruthless nature of the Saiyans.

Tien, Yamcha, Krillen and Caozu are training under Kami-Sama, during this time they enter a room which takes them to this far away planet. On this planet, they get attacked by these two Saiyans, after being horribly beat by them, they are brought back to the room. Finding out that it was only an illusion and that the Saiyans that are arriving to Earth are twice as strong as the two they fought the four are determined to train even harder.

Present day, the two Saiyans have finally arrived, Goku has been wished back to life by the Dragonballs, but will arrive one day late. After the Saiyans destroy part of a city, they fly off to look for the strongest fighter on Earth, who is currently Piccolo.

The two Saiyans arrive to meet with Gohan and Piccolo who has just been joined by Krillen. Nappa and Vegeta decides to have some fun, Nappa plants six seeds which almost instantly hatches into six green Saibamen. Just as the fighting starts to heat up Tien along with Chao-Zu arrives followed shortly by Yamcha. Everyone decides to take place in a one on one battle between one of the Z fighters and the Saibamen to buy the time needed so Goku came come back. While all of this is going one there is a TV crew filming the fight live and everyone is at the Kame house watching.

During the fight all of the Saibamen are beaten, but at the lost of Yamcha, when a Saibamen attached to him and performed a kamikaze attack on Yamcha. Now it was Nappa's turn to fight. Nappa begins to fight against Tien first, and very easily beats him. During the fight Tien gets his arm cut off by Nappa, Chao-Zu then jumps into the fight and attaches himself to Nappa's back. Chao-Zu tries to end the fight by self-destructing, which he does but fails to take out Nappa as well. This enrages Tien and he gives it one last effort to beat Nappa with one arm. After Tien's defeat Piccolo and Krillen attack Nappa, but Nappa resists and beat them up also. Seeing his friends get beat up by Nappa Gohan throws a very strong ki blast at Nappa which Nappa barely blocks. This pisses off Nappa and he shoots an even stronger ki blast at Gohan. It looks like the end for Gohan when Piccolo jumps in and takes the hit for Gohan. Before his death, Piccolo tells Gohan that he has changed him and that he is no longer a bad person. With Krillen down and Gohan the only one left Nappa is about to win this fight when Goku finally arrives at the battlefield.

Goku, who has a senzu bean with him gives half to Krillen and another half to Gohan. Hearing that everyone was killed by Nappa really pisses off Goku. The following fight doesn't even need a description as Goku easily kicks the crap out of Nappa. Seeing his partner down Vegeta who hasn't down anything yet, throws Nappa in the air and kills him. It's like some sort of Saiyan honor to do that. Anyway, the main event has finally come, Vegeta versus Goku. Goku tells Gohan and Krillen to leave the battlefield which they do, by themselves now, Goku powers up to prepare to fight Vegeta.

The fight between Goku and Vegeta is pretty evenly matched, that is until Goku starts to use his kaioken technique. This gives Goku the advantage, and he starts to beat up on Vegeta. Vegeta sensing that he is losing to a low class Saiyan tries to blow up the Earth but Goku rejects his fireball with a kaioken x4 kamehameha. This really pisses off Vegeta and he decides to use a move that he has never had to do. He artificially creates moonlight which causes him to go Oozaru and increasing his power level 10 times. Vegeta then proceeds to kick the crap out of Goku. Meanwhile, Gohan and Krillen has decided to fly back to the battle area to see how Goku's doing.

Goku is starting to lose the fight against Oozaru Vegeta when Yajirobe, the coward who was hiding the entire time cuts off Vegeta's tail causing Vegeta to transform back to his Saiyan form. Vegeta gets ready to kick some major ass when Krillen and Gohan arrives to the scene, Gohan then begins to fight against Vegeta. This buys enough time for Goku to create a second Genki-Dama (Spirit Bomb). Goku tried to make one earlier when he was fighting against Oozaru Vegeta but failed on the attack. Goku who is very weak, transfers the Spirit Bomb over to Krillen. He tells Krillen to wait until the moment is right to throw the bomb. When Krillen gets that flashing feeling he knows the time is right so he throws the ball at Vegeta. Vegeta however, dodges the ball just in the nick of time. The bomb is now headed for Gohan, but Goku tells Gohan that he can block the ball and reflect it if his heart is pure. Gohan does reflect the ball and this time the Spirit Bomb makes contact with Vegeta.

However; Vegeta is not defeated, Vegeta is able to move out of the way of the bomb and he falls back down to Earth. When he lands he is very weak but is still strong enough to beat up Krillen, Gohan and Goku. All seems lost but somehow Gohan's tail seem to have grown back, Vegeta looks on n shock as Gohan glances at the artificial light that Vegeta created and turns Oozaru. In this form, Gohan is destroying everything around him and is able to get a couple of shots on Vegeta. Even though Gohan has no idea what he is doing. Vegeta manages to cut off Gohan's tail but Gohan lands on top of Vegeta. After Gohan to normal, we see Vegeta lying on the ground beaten up very bad. Bruised and beaten Vegeta tries to climb back into his spaceship but is stopped by Krillen holding Yajirobe's sword. Goku tells Krillen to let Vegeta go as he has learned his lesson. Vegeta climbs into his spaceship and flies off.

After the fight Master Roshi, Bulma, and Chi-chi arrive to the battlefield inside one of the capsule corp. planes to bring Goku, Gohan and Krillen back home. Thus ends the Saiyan Saga.

The Frieza Saga

Journey to Planet Namek
With Piccolo, Tien, Yamcha and Chaozu dead; Goku, Krillen and Gohan lie in hospital beds all injured but alive. This is the aftermath of the fight against Vegeta. Goku seems to have it the most as he is in a complete body cast, all you can see is his face. Everyone is wondering how in the world they will ever bring their friends back to life, because Piccolo died the Dragonballs have disappeared. When all of a sudden Mr. Popo, Kami's assistant appears, he tells everyone that before Kami died, he told Popo that there were other Dragonballs in the universe and that they were located on the Planet Namek. Everyone is overjoyed at this until Bulma tells them that it would take an extremly long time to get there by spaceship, way longer than their lifetime. After hearing this Mr. Popo tells them that he might know where a special spaceship is, it belonged to Kami when he arrived to Earth as a child.

Everyone agrees that Bulma should go with Mr. Popo to check out the spaceship. When they arrive to the destination Bulma finds out that the spaceship can take them to Namek in a few weeks, unfortunately the spaceship can only be operated if you know the Namek language. Mr. Popo, after being with Kami for many years, agrees to teach Bulma some of the Namek language that he has picked up. Pretty soon Bulma, Gohan and Krillen who, by the way, has fully healed of their injuries are about the take the spaceship to Namek. Goku who is still injured (but still trains against the doctors orders) is unable to accompany them.

On their journey to Namek, the three of them run into an invisible spaceship. That is where they first here of this evil and very powerful being named Freeza. After leaving, the group crash lands on a planet which they think is Namek. After waking up and meeting two Namekians, who by the way helps them to locate all seven Dragonballs. But it turns out that it was all an illusion, the two 'aliens' who posed as Nameks capture Bulma and force her to use the spaceship to try to get them to fly and escape from the planet. Fortunately, Gohan and Krillen comes in to save Bulma and all three of them escapes from the 'illusion' planet leaving the two aliens behind.

Meanwhile Vegeta has traveled to one of Freeza's planet base and has rejuvenated himself back to full health. When Vegeta learns that Freeza is already on Planet Namek collecting the Dragonballs Vegeta takes off in that direction to find Freeza and the Dragonballs for himself.

After a few more days of traveling through space the group finally lands on the real Planet Namek, they immediately start to look for the Dragonballs. After a little while Bulma sees on the Dragon Radar that there are four dragonballs flying together. Plus Gohan and Krillen sensed a very strong ki level flying towards them. The three hides behind a cave to see who it is. Only to see Freeza and his henchmen flying with four Namek Dragonballs. And to make things worse they're flying towards a fifth Namek Dragonball. Gohan and Krillen decides to follow them, leaving Bulma behind in a cave. Meanwhile, Vegeta has also landed on Namek and he too begins to hunt for the Dragonballs.

Battle for the Namek Dragonballs
Gohan and Krillen follow Freeza and his men to one of the Namek tribes. Hiding behind a hill, Gohan & Krillen gets their first glimpse of what Freza looks like. They also see what Freeza's men, Dodoria and Zarbon look like. Freeza is a ruthless person, he kills all of the Namek people forcing the High Elder to give up the Dragonball. Suddenly, three Namek fighters show up to defend the tribe, but Dodoria kills all three of them easily. But even after Freeza gets the Dragonball, he gets Dodoria to kill the High Elder. Fortunately, the Elder was able to destroy all of the Scouters on Freeza's men so they couldn't locate anymore Dragonballs, he also tells them that even if they get all seven Dragonballs, they will be unable to make their wishes. Dodoria is now advancing towards the Namek child who is basically scared shitless and is about to kill him as well. Gohan, after witnessing everything gets all pissed off and fly's in the rescue the kid. Gohan fly's in and kicks Dodoria right in the face, Krillen also fly's in, grabs the Namek child and fly's away with Gohan. Freeza tells Dodoria not to let them get away, Dodoria starts to chase after Gohan, Krillen and the Namek child.

On another note, Vegeta has collected one of the Dragonballs and has hidden it in a lake so Freeza won't be able to find it. Also sometime before or after this, can't quite remember, Vegeta meets up with one of Freeza's men, Kui. They fight but at the end Vegeta basically beats the crap out of Kui. On flying around looking for the other Dragonballs, Vegeta meets with Dodoria, who thinks that he has gotten rid of Krillen and Gohan and is flying back to Freeza. the two of them chat but they begin to fight. Not much in this battle either, they chat for a bit, then Vegeta kills Dodoria in a one-sided match. Vegeta then continues his Dragonball hunt.

Back to Krillen and Gohan, they introduce themselves to the Namek child and the child tells them that his name is Dende. The two tells Dende of the Dragonballs and why they need them. They also go back to where Bulma is and get the Dragon Radar from her. Dende takes Krillen to go see the highest Namek Elder, Guru while Gohan goes to look for the Dragonballs with the Dragon Radar.

While all of this is happening on Namek, Goku with the help of Yajirobe who has brought bag of senzu and giving him one has fully healed and is on his way to Namek. He goes to see Mr. Briefs, Bulma's father to get a spaceship. it turns out that Mr. Briefs has worked very hard on Goku's old spaceship (the one that he came to Earth with as a baby, and the same one that Piccolo destroyed) fixing it up quite nicely. It is now a very large spaceship, it also has a machine where it can increase the gravity in the ship up to 100x the Earth's natural gravitational pull. Goku immediately leaves for Namek where he is due to arrive in 6 days.

On his trip to Namek, Goku learns that his friends, Piccolo, Tien, Yamcha and Chaozu have arrived on King Kai's planet and has begun training with the martial arts master. Goku also encounters many obstacles. Like flying into an electrical storm and having the machine be stuck at 100G's, another is that the spaceship changed direction and was going to fly right into a star. Fortunately Goku, who started to train at 20G's (or twenty times the Earth's natural gravitational pull) and later moved up to 50 then 100G's, was able to pull off a kaioken X 20 with a kamehameha blast. This was strong enough to reverse to direction the ship was traveling. during the six days of flying, all Goku did was train, eat and sleep. Near the end of his travel Goku could fight at 100G's without difficulty. This is why Goku became so strong.

Meanwhile, Freeza wondering where Dodoria is sends Zarbon to find him. Vegeta flying senses Zarbon and goes off to fight him. Vegeta is looking good when Zarbon transforms which increases his power level a lot, and whoops Vegeta around pretty bad. Zarbon leaves the badly injured Saiyan in a lake and returns to report to Freeza.

Now back to the good guys, on Namek, Dende has taken Krillen to see to highest Namek Elder, Guru. This is the first time we also get to see Guru plus his bodyguard, plus Namek's strongest fighter, Nail. After telling guru of why the Earthlings have come to Earth to collect to Dragonballs, Guru agrees to help them by giving Krillen one of the Namek Dragonballs. Not only that, but Guru releases Krillen's sleeping power, which makes Krillen stronger than ever. With his new found power, Krillen tells Dende to wait with Guru, as he will go back to get Gohan and get Guru to release Gohan's hidden power as well. After reporting to Freeza what has heppened to Vegeta, Freeza is still unimpressed and sends Zarbon back to bring Vegeta back to the base.

Gohan, using the Dragon Radar from Bulma, has found the Dragonball that Vegeta has hidden at the bottom of the lake, and is taking it back to the cave where Bulma is. Vegeta has been taken back to Freeza's base, and is put in the rejuvenation tank. After sneakily breaking out of the tank, Vegeta cleverly hides all of Freeza's Dragonballs. Freeza, now very pissed off, gives Zarbon a one hour limit to bring back the Dragonballs and get Vegeta. He also calls forth for five of the universe's greatest warriors. The Ginyu Force!

After Vegeta escapes from Freeza's base and has hidden the five Dragonballs, he catches Krillen flying with one of the Dragonballs, Vegeta starts to follow after Krillen. Zarbon, who is searching for Vegeta, sees him following Krillen and begins to follow Vegeta. Now it's Krillen flying being tailed by Vegeta who is also being tailed by Zarbon. When Krillen lands Vegeta lands right behind and demands for the Dragonball when Zarbon lands behind Vegeta. Thus begins round two of the Vegeta Vs Zarbon fight. But this time Vegeta is not easily defeated, as we all know a Saiyan's power increases after every battle. Now Vegeta has little difficulty wasting Zarbon, even after his transformation. With Zarbon out of the way, Vegeta forces Krillen to give up his Dragonballs. Thinking he know has possession of all seven Dragonballs, Vegeta flies back to his hidden Dragonballs.

Back to Guru, Guru tells Nail that he should leave to help the Z fighters in the battle against the Ginyu Force. Nail disagrees with the idea of leaving Guru but leaves anyway. Guru also tells Dende to come forth, Guru puts a hand on Dende's head and gives him the power to heal others, this new skill that Dende has will soon be very useful later on. Guru also tells Dende to leave and find the Z fighters and help them to make their wishes, as the only way you can make a wish in with the Namek Dragonballs is if you say it in the Namek language. Dende flies off the find Krillen and Gohan leaving Guru by himself.

On his way back to Bulma, Gohan senses Vegeta's ki and quickly hides the Dragonball that he is carrying. Vegeta runs into Gohan and aftera little confrontation kicks Gohan right in the stomach knocking the wind out of Gohan, then flies away. Gohan, breathing heavily, laughs because Vegeta didn't notice the Dragonball, so Gohan continues to fly back. When he gets back Krillen and Gohan takes off towards Guru to get Guru to awaken Gohan's hidden power, and leaving the Dragonball behind with Bulma. While watching over the Dragonball, fireball blasts from Freeza causes the ball to roll over into the lake. Now Bulma must get the Dragonball back by going underwater and battling a giant crab. When Bulma gets the ball back and escapes from the lake she gets captured by two of Freeza's men who is going to take her to Freeza. But Bulma is able to trick the henchmen into searching for the Dragonballs for themselves. When they start looking the giant crab attacks the two soldiers allowing Bulma to escape with the Dragonball.

Vegeta, now goes to look for the last Dragonball that he hid underwater. Only to realize that Gohan had taken the Ball earlier but just not realizing it. Enraged, Vegeta flies off to find Gohan and Krillen. Both Krillen & Gohan senses Vegeta approaching them so Krillen decides to stay behind to hold off Vegeta so that Guru can release Gohan's hidden power. Guru releases Gohan's power, Vegeta is about to attack Krillen when he senses an extremely strong power level, The Ginyu Force! Vegeta tells Krillen and Gohan that they cannot possibly beat the Ginyu Force unless they wish Vegeta for immortality. With this newly formed alliance, Krillen Gohan and Vegeta fly off the get the last Dragonball from Bulma.

The Ginyu Force has finally landed on the Planet Namek: Guldo, Recoome, Jeice, Burter and Captain Ginyu do a little introduction and a Ginyu Force pose in front of Freeza, who tells them to bring back his precious Dragonballs. After collecting all seven of the Dragonballs, Vegeta demands Krillen to hand over the Ball so he can wish for immortality, but now Krillen is a bit hesitant to give up the remaining Dragonball to Vegeta. Pissed off, Vegeta is about to take the ball himself when the Ginyu Force arrives.

All five of the Ginyu force members have arrived to face off against Vegeta, Gohan and Krillen. Vegeta tells Krillen to destroy the last Dragonball which Krillen is about to when a split second later the Ball disappears and reappears in Guldo's hands. Shocked and very much frightened, Vegeta remains frozen as Captain Ginyu collects all seven of the Dragonballs and prepares to take them back to Freeza. The remaining four Ginyu Force members decides who will fight the Z fighters first by having a Rock, Papers, Scissors type of elimination game. It is decided that Guldo will battle first.

The Arrival Of Goku
Gohan and Krillen prepares to fight Guldo, it appears that Guldo is no match for them as he is always forced to perform his time freeza attack (he used the time freeza attack on Krillen when Krillen was about to destroy the Dragonball). It looks like Gohan & Krillen is going to win the fight when Guldo does his Mind Freeze, stopping Gohan and Krillen right on their tracks. No matter how hard they try, Gohan & Krillen is unable to move a muscle. Guldo is now ready to finish off the two warriors when all of a sudden he drops dead. Gohan and Krillen escapes from the spell wandering what happened when we see Vegeta standing over Guldo's lifeless body, (in the uncut version of Dragonball, Vegeta cuts off Guldo's head). The Ginyu Force members are surprised but not worried, no they have another Rock, Paper, Scissors game to see who will fight next. This time Recoome gets to go, Vegeta, thinking that he can take Recoome, prepares to fight him.

At the beginning of the fight Vegeta is looking good against Recoome, he gets in some good punches, hits him with fireballs and throws him into rocks. At the end Vegeta is breathing heavily, but Recoome is still standing like nothing happened. Now it is Recoome's turn to attack, he attacks Vegeta full force, and beating Vegeta to near death. Recoome is about to finish Vegeta off when Gohan and Krillen jumps in to save him. Meanwhile, freeza has collected all seven Dragonballs and immediately wishes for immortality. When nothing happens Freeza goes off to find Guru.

Now it is Krillen & Gohan's turn to fight Recoome, but is unable to do anything to him. With one kick, Recoome knocks Krillen out of the fight. Now it is only Gohan, he gets in a good couple of shots but Recoome proves to strong for the little Saiyan, Gohan is also downed by Recoome. When it seems like the battle is lost, a spaceship appears over the horizon. When the ship lands and the door opens, Goku steps out carrying a bag of senzu beans for the injured warriors.

Goku steps out of the ship trying to sense power levels, he senses Freeza's power and Ginyu's, but is unable to sense Gohan's. Goku finds him and realizes it almost at zero. Goku quickly flies to the battlefield, flying right past Jeice and Burter and ignoring Recoome. He flies stright to Gohan and gives him a senzu to revive him. Next he gives one to Krillen, Recoome is shocked to see that Gohan and Krillen is both standing and looking fine when a minute ago they could barely even talk. Goku touches Krillen's head and reads his mind, Krillen's mind tells goku exactly what has happened on Namek. With the last senzu, Goku gives it to Vegeta. Saying that if it wasn't for him, Krillen and Gohan would've been killed by Guldo. Goku now looks towards Recoome, Krillen and Gohan tries to warn him of Recoome's power but Goku is not worried. Recoome is about to get Goku with one swift attack but with one punch to the gut, Recoome is downed by Goku. Everyone is shocked at how powerful Goku has become in such a short time. Goku tells them it's because he has been training in 100 times Earth's natural gravity. Vegeta thinks to himself if Kakkarot has become the legendary Super Saiyan.

Jeice and Burter now fly in to try to fight Goku, but their attacks fail to even touch Goku. With one punch, Goku knocks Burter out of the fight. Now scared shitless, Jeice flies off to get Captain Ginyu. With Reccome and Burter down, Vegeta takes advantage of this and kills them both as Goku only knocked them out. Jeice arrives back to Freeza's ship, and tells Captain Ginyu about the new warrior. Ginyu leaves with Jeice to fight against Goku, but not before telling Freeza's men to bury the Dragonballs. Ginyu arrives on the battlefield and starts to battle against Goku, while Vegeta flies off to look for the Namek Dragonballs leaving Goku behind to battle Ginyu by himself. Gohan and Krillen flies after Vegeta to make sure Vegeta doesn't get the Dragonballs first.

Freeza has arrived to Guru's pad, he demands that Guru tells him how to use the Dragonballs. Nail arrives to the scene and tells Freeza to leave the area. Suddenly, Three Namek fighters fly in to try to protect Guru but Freeza beats them all easily. Nail tells that Freeza must fight him, but in another area far away from Guru if he wants to know how to use the Dragonballs. Freeza agrees and he follows Nail as he flies away from Guru.

During the fight with Captain Ginyu, Goku is hiding about two thirds of his full power. During the fight Ginyu tells Goku he knows that Goku is hiding most of his power and demands Goku to show his full power. Goku agrees and starts to power up, to his surprise Goku powers up to be much stronger than Ginyu and starts to pound on him. While Nail, Guru's bodyguard returns to Guru to help protect him as he senses a great danger heading towards Guru. Ginyu is losing this fight against Goku but still finds the time to laugh. Goku asks him why he is so happy, Ginyu replies to Gou that he has one more trick up his sleeve, with that Ginyu punches through his own chest, causing serious injury to himself. Goku is stunned at Ginyu's action, this buys enough time for Ginyu to perform his ultimate move, his body change. This move switches their spirits from person to person, now Captain Ginyu is in Goku's body and Goku is in Ginyu's body, which is, critically injured from Ginyu's self inflicting wound. Pleased with his new body, Ginyu and Jeice fly back to Freeza's ship leaving Goku behind.

Vegeta arrives to Freeza's ship looking for the Dragonballs, he goes inside to look for them and kills all of Freeza's men. When he comes out he see that Gohan and Krillen has uncovered the Dragonballs from underneath the ground. But Krillen and Gohan celebration is cut short when Captain Ginyu in Goku's body arrive with Jeice. Gohan and Krillen wanders why Jeice is with Goku, but nevertheless they tell him about the Dragonballs. Goku now arrives to the scene and tells Gohan and Krillen that Ginyu has switched their bodies and Ginyu is inside Goku's body. Gohan and Krillen is surprised and a bit confused. Ginyu tries to power up to full strength but only gets up to a max power of 23 000. Now Gohan and Krillen starts to fight Ginyu in Goku's body. Vegeta also steps out and challenges Jeice to a battle.

The fight against Jeice proves to be an easy one, as Vegeta's strength greatly increased from that senzu Goku gave him. Ginyu is barely keeping up with Gohan and Krillen's vicious attacks. When Vegeta announces that he is a Super Saiyan and beats Ginyu up quite bad. But Ginyu seems to be letting Vegeta beat him, as he is preparing to do another body switch, this time with Vegeta. Goku realizing this, throws a frog into the beam that Ginyu shoots out of his mouth, the frog hits the beam just before it can get to Vegeta. Goku is now back in his old self and Ginyu is in the body of a frog. Ginyu hops away and Goku lies on the ground badly injured.

Vegeta tells Krillen and Gohan to bring Goku inside Freeza's ship so that Goku can be put into a rejuvenation chamber, similar to the one that Vegeta was in. Krillen and Gohan also gets some new clothes, Saiyan armor, like the one that Vegeta wore in during the Saiyan Saga. Vegeta, who is rather tired, announces that he needs some sleep. While Vegeta is sleeping Krillen goes off to find Dende so that they can use the Dragonballs, while Gohan stays behind to look after them. Nail, lies defeated in front of Freeza, Freeza gives Nial one last chance to tell him the password for the Dragonballs. Nail laughs at Freeza and tells him that all this time was just to stall time so that Dende can get to Krillen and Gohan and help them make their wish. Enraged at this, Freeza flies back to his base.

Shortly after takeoff, Krillen meets Dende and the both of them go back to Gohan. All three of them decide to use the Dragonballs before Freeza comes back and before Vegeta wakes up. They move the Dragonballs far away from the ship and Dende calls out the Eternal Dragon. The only way to use the Namek Dragonballs is if you say the password which is 'Porunga' (name for the eternal dragon) and say your wish in Namekian. As the dragon emerges from the balls, he tells them that he will grant three wishes. Gohan and Krillen tries to figure out who they should wish back, when Gohan hears Piccolo's voice. Piccolo says that it should be him that they wish back, because if Piccolo comes back so will the Earth's dragonballs. Then with the second wish they should wish Piccolo to the planet Namek. So Gohan tells this to Dende and Dende uses the first wish to bring Piccolo back and the second to wish Piccolo to planet Namek. Piccolo disappears from King Kai's planet and reappears on Namek. He senses Gohan's ki and flies off towards him.

Arrival Of Freeza
On his way to Gohan, Piccolo meets with a badly injured Nail. After a little talk, Nail is able to convince Piccolo to fuse with him. This fusion makes Piccolo stronger than ever, with this new power Piccolo continues to fly towards Gohan. Meanwhile, Vegeta has woken and realized that the Dragon has been summoned. He flies to where the Dragonballs are and demands Dende to wish him for immortality. Dende is about to grant Vegeta's wish when the Dragon disappears and the Dragonballs turn to stone. Everyone is confused until Dende says that Guru has died and the Dragonballs are useless. Very much pissed off, Vegeta is about to kick some major ass when he freezes in fear. Freeza has just arrived and he does not look too happy.

Vegeta begins to battle Freeza, who is still in his first form, and does quite well. Vegeta boasts that he is a Super Saiyan, and that Freeza can transform. Freeza asks how Vegeta knew about this and Vegeta replies that Zarbon told him about it. Freeza is glad to show Vegeta his transformation. Freeza also tells Vegeta about his past and how he destroyed the Saiyan Planet. But what surprises Vegeta the most is when Freeza reveals that in his second form he has a fighting power of over 1 000 000. Freeza has transformed into his second form, Freeza now looks kind of like a demon with horns on his head. His power and speed increases greatly and Vegeta, who is very much afraid, backs off leaving Gohan and Krillen to battle. But Freeza's power is too much, with one swift move he attacks Krillen and impales him in the chest with one of his horns.

Gohan is enraged at the lost of his friend and launches a furious barrage of attacks onto Freeza. But after the smoke clears, Freeza is still standing and without a scratch. Now Freeza attacks Gohan and with just a couple of shots, knocks Gohan down. It looks like all is lost when Freeza's tail is cut off by a Kienzan (destructo disk), which was thrown by Krillen. Krillen seems to be back to perfect health, and Freeza wonders why. It was actually Dende how healed Krillen, as Guru gave him the powers to do so. Krillen, needing to buy some time so that Dende can heal Gohan, taunts Freeza and flies away; Freeza begins to chase after Krillen.

After a wild goose chase, Krillen comes back to the battlefield with Freeza close behind him. Gohan is now healed and joins Krillen. Freeza wonders how Gohan and Krillen have regained their health. Nevertheless he begins to attack them again. But this time a cloud of smoke appears, when it clears we see Piccolo standing there and looking stronger than ever. Piccolo begins to battle it out with Freeza, with each fighter getting in some good shots. Near the end of the battle, it looks as if Piccolo has the match won, until Freeza reveals that he has another transformation. Which Freeza uses to his advantage, in his new transformed state, Freeza looks kind of like the queen Alien in the movie 'Aliens'. Freeza proves to be too much for Piccolo and downs him. Krillen and Gohan is forced to help Piccolo battle Freeza even though they don't stand a chance against him. Dende goes to heal Piccolo and Piccolo jumps back into battle. Gohan however; was able to land some nice punches on Freeza, impressed by how strong Gohan is Vegeta reveals a plan that he has been devising the entire time. He tells Krillen to shoot a to beat him to near death and have Dende heal him, Vegeta figures since all Saiyans get stronger from a near death experience, he would be strong enough to take on Freeza.

Krillen is reluctant to shoot at Vegeta but when Vegeta advances towards him, Krillen shoots a fireball straight through Vegeta's chest. When Vegeta lands on the ground he tires to get Dende to heal him but Dende refuses to do so. Dende says that he cannot heal anyone who is evil, instead he flies away from Vegeta. Freeza decides that it is time for his final transformation, and so he begins his last and most powerful transformation. Piccolo now tells Dende that he should go and heal Vegeta, as Piccolo know it that they don't stand a chance against Freeza and they need Vegeta's power. Dende is reluctant, but he goes ahead and heals Vegeta. Freeza catches Dende healing Vegeta and realizes that it was him that was healing everyone.

After Freeza is finished with his final transformation, he immediately starts the fight by killing Dende, now nobody can be healed. Freeza begins to attack Piccolo, Gohan an Krillen when Vegeta jumps in. Vegeta says that he is now a Super Saiyan, and begins to power up. But soon Vegeta realizes that even his new powers is no match for Freeza. Freeza is much too strong and beats Vegeta to an inch of his life.

Goku, who's been inside the rejuvenation tank the entire time, has fully recovered from his injuries and is making his way to the battlefield. Back on the battlefield Freeza is about to give Vegeta the final blow when Goku arrives just on time. Freeza looks at Goku, and can't stop but to wonder that he has seen his face somewhere before. Freeza begins to shoot fireballs at Goku but Goku bats them away like they were nothing. Vegeta, lying on the ground laughs and says that Kakarrot is a Super Saiyan. Freeza, annoyed at Vegeta shoots a beam through Vegeta's chest. Vegeta, with only seconds left to live, tells Goku about his past and why he was so evil, he also tells Goku of Freeza destroying the Saiyan Planet and that he must be killed by a Saiyan. With those last words, Vegeta dies; touched by his words, Goku buries Vegeta and resumes his fight against Freeza.

Goku gives Piccolo an eye signal saying that he and the rest should get out of the area, which Piccolo obliges. Now that Goku and Freeza are by themselves they begin to battle. The fight between Goku and Freeza is a close one, after Goku is knocked underwater, a clever trick gives him the upper edge in the fight. The fight continues win no winner being decided, when Freeza tells Goku that he'll fight him without using his arms. Elsewhere on Namek, Ginyu, who is trapped in the body of a frog has encountered Bulma. Bulma thinking that the frog understands her builds a universal translator. She can understand what the frog is saying, since all Ginyu needs to do is say change takes advantage of this and switches bodies with Bulma. Now in the body of Bulma, Ginyu makes his way back to the battlefield.

Freeza who is still fighting without using his arms, gets roughed up by goku a bit and breaks his promise and gives Goku a hard right to Goku's jaw. Freeza tells Goku that he has only been using 33% of his full power (In the dub Freeza says that he was only using 1% of his full power, but English dubs are just a bunch of BS). Freeza begins to charge up to 50% full power. Ginyu in Bulma's body has arrived to where Piccolo, Krillen and Gohan is watching the fight. As Goku is getting beat up by 50% full power Freeza, Ginyu/Bulma laughs and is complimenting Freeza. Piccolo and the rest starts to suspect Bulma, Ginyu now with a sly grin on his face, turns around and prepares to do another body change, this time with Piccolo. Gohan figures out that Bulma is actually Ginyu, and sees Bulma in the frogs body. Gohan picks up the frog, and throws it into Ginyu's beam. Now Bulma is back in her oneself and Ginyu is back into his frog body.

Goku is no match for Freeza, after two separate visions, one involving Vegeta talking to him. Goku has come back but Freeza still resists his attacks, Goku now has no choice but to set up his ultimate attack: The Spirit Bomb! Goku raises his arms and begins to collect energy from Namek and the surrounding planets and stars. Freeza is unaware of Goku's attack and begins to knock him around. But Goku is still not fighting back, when Freeza finally notices the Ball he prepares to finish off Goku with a final blow. Until Piccolo jumps in to fight Freeza to stall time for Goku to finish powering up the Spirit Bomb.

While all of this is happening, Tien Yamcha and Chaozu are confronted on King Kai's planet by the four members of the Ginyu Force. The two groups begin to battle it out, until everyone realizes that the Ginyu force is no match for them. Thus Tien, Yamcha and Chaozu easily knock the Ginyu Force off the planet and down to hell.

The Legendary Super Saiyan
Despite Piccolo's efforts, he doesn't stand a chance against Freeza. Freeza is about to finish of the Namek when he gets hit with two fireballs, those belonging to Krillen and Gohan. Freeza is PO'd and gets ready to kill all three of them when Goku's Genki-Dama is finally complete. Goku yells at everyone to get out of the way and throws the ball at Freeza. The ball which is quite large, is dropping straight onto Freeza, Freeza looks up and is horrified at the size and power of the Ball. He tries to block it but the ball is too powerful for him and pushes Freeza down to Earth. The ball now explodes and Freeza's face does that instant vaporizing thing that most people do when they get caught in a fireball. The explosion knocks everyone back and leaves a huge crater behind. After the dust is cleared, Gohan and Krillen are standing and wondering where Goku and Piccolo are.

The field where Goku and Freeza were just battling on is nothing but a crater as water from the ocean begins to fill it up. When a green arm pops up from underneath the water. It is Piccolo, and he is holding onto Goku. Both Krillen and Gohan fly over to the two and they begin to celebrate their victory. But during this happy time, Krillen freezes in total fear, everyone turns around and sees that Freeza is still alive.

Freeza points a finger at Goku and fires a concentrated powerful beam of light. Piccolo jumps in to block the beam from Goku, the beam goes right through Piccolo's chest and he drops down unconscious. Goku, with the lost of Piccolo, begins to feel this great anger that he has never felt before. But the nightmare doesn't end there, with his next attack, Freeza points at Krillen and telepathically lifts him up into the air. Goku tells Freeza to stop this but Freeza clenches his fist and Krillen, who is screaming for help explodes. Freeza smiles and says that Gohan is next to die.

Goku is probably right now pissed off more than ever. So pissed that he begins to these body spasms, (or something like that). He has his fists and teeth clenched and he's making these weird noises like he's grinding his teeth. Lightning starts to surround the area and Freeza, who is curious at what is happening but is not worried. Goku's hair starts to change to a blond color and is starting to stand up. His eyes are also starting to change from black to green. Now comes the screaming part, all we can see is Goku's face. With this very loud scream, Goku is standing with a golden aura surrounding him, his hair is standing up and Golden, and his eyes are green, Goku's muscles seem to have tripled in size too. Goku is now a Super Saiyan!

Goku turns around and tells Gohan that Piccolo is still alive, take Piccolo back to the ship, find Bulma and get off of Namek. Freeza is curious at what has just happened but is not in the very least worried. That is until Freeza tries to shoot Gohan with a finger shot, and Goku instantly appears in front of Freeza, grabs his hand and crushes it causing Freeza to drop on one knee in pain. Freeza manages to get out of the grip of Goku and jumps to safety, but basically only got away because Goku let go. Now begins Goku's never ending ass kicking he gives to Freeza. Freeza is unable to do a thing, while Goku continues to launch his attack. Freeza manages to throw off some fireballs at Goku but Goku just stands there and acts like nothing has happened. Stunned at how powerful Goku has become Freeza launches an all out combination of punches and kicks but Goku just blocks every one of them with ease.

Freeza tries some more attacks on Goku but fails. With no other options Freeza creates this giant red ball. He tells Goku that he can breathe in space and that Goku can't. With that Freeza throws the ball down to Namek and the ball penetrates deep into the planet and destroys the core. The entire planet is engulfed in a gigantic explosion.

We now see King Kai standing on his planet looking pretty grim. He tells everyone that Freeza has destroyed the Planet Namek and that all is lost. When suddenly Kami-Sama speaks to him telepathically. Kami says that Mr. Popo is collecting the seven Dragonballs and that they can use them to bring back Namek. But King Kai realizes that since Kami is still alive that means that Piccolo is still alive as well, and that Namek is still in one piece. After some concentration, Kaio-Sama is able to locate Namek, which hasn't exploded yet.

Goku and Freeza are floating above the giant crater left by Freeza's ball, the crater seems to never end as it goes all the way down to the Planets core. Freeza says that he held back to much power and Goku says that Freeza couldn't go through the idea of destroying the planet. The two talk, and Freeza tells Goku that he has only been using 75% of his full power, and that the planet will explode in about 5 minutes. Goku says that 5 minutes is enough time to kill Freeza and the two begin to fight. The two trades some blows and Freeza begins to power up to 100% full power while Goku is standing still and letting him.

Goku hears the voice of Kaio-sama asking what the hell Goku is doing, and that he should finish off Freeza now before he reaches 100% power. Goku replies by saying that he wants Freeza to reach 100%, so that both of them will be at full power when they fight. And when Goku beats Freeza, it'll show him who is the strongest in the universe.

Freeza has finished powering up to 100% full power. With one swift move he lands a good right on Goku's face causing him to spit out blood. The two battle viciously and this time Freeza is getting in some good shots. But Goku was just warming up, and so was Freeza. Now begins the ultimate battle between good and evil on a dying planet.

The two warriors are fighting pretty evenly. On Kaio's planet Kaio is cursing at Goku for not attacking Freeza earlier, now there is no hope. Then Kami talks to Kaio, he says that the Dragonballs have been collected and that Mr. Popo is ready to ask the Dragon any wish. King Kai thinks about it and asks if more than one person can be brought back with the Dragonballs which Kami replies yes. Kaio demands that everyone who has been killed by Freeza be brought back to life.

The fighting is still going on between Goku and Freeza with only a few minutes left to spare. On Kaio's planet Kami wonders why King Kai wants this kind of wish. Kaio explains that if they wish everyone who was killed by Freeza on Nameck back to life, that will bring back Guru, even if it's for a short amount of time since he was about to die anyway. Kaio says that Dende was only able to ask for two out of three wishes from Porunga, before guru died. Just like on Earth. If Kami dies, the Dragon Balls turn to stone and can't be used, since Kami created the balls. On Namek, Guru created the balls. So when he died, Porunga vanished and Dende couldn't use his last wish. This means that if they use Shenlon to wish back everyone who was killed by Freeza, Guru will come back to life as well, even though Freeza didn't directly kill him. If Guru (who's Japanese name is Saichoro) comes back to life, Porunga should be already there since he disappeared in the middle of granting wishes. Then they can wish to have everyone teleported to Earth except for Freeza before Namek explodes!

Kami seems to understand all this and tells Popo to make the wish. Now on Namek, I forgot to add that Gohan has brought Piccolo to the ship and has also found Bulma, they are about to leave when Gohan pleads Bulma to stay and wait for his Dad to come back. Now back to the fight, Freeza who is, looking ultra super buff from his 100% full power continues to battle Goku. The two powers up these huge fireballs and shoots them at each other. The two match power against power for a few minutes. Goku launches a ball at full power to Freeza but Freeza somehow manages to push it off, and purchase Goku in the stomach as hard as he can. Freeza pushes Goku into the center of the Planet, then re-emerges from the ground by himself.

Gohan gasps and says that he can't feel his dad's ki anymore. Gohan walks to the door and gets ready to fly off the finish off Freeza. Bulma tries to convince them that they should leave, but Gohan tells her that if they go back to Earth, Freeza will follow and kill everyone there. Now Gohan must kill Freeza, with that Gohan flies off. By the way, just to let you know, on Earth: Chi-chi, Kame-sennin, Yajirobe and Puar was going to fly to Namek and bring everyone back but the spaceship keeps on breaking.

Now onto Namek, we see a village full of dead Nameks, when all of a sudden they all start to open their eyes and stand up. It looks like Shenlon has granted the wish. Dende also starts to get up. Now to Freeza, Freeza looks at the sky and thinks that he should get the hell off this planet. When he sees a glow from the distance, Gohan has shown up and says that it's his turn. Freeza laughs at Gohan and says that he has no idea what he's up against. Gohan powers up and flies straight at Freeza. But then flies away, Freeza appears in front of Gohan and Gohan flies off again. Meanwhile everyone has been brought back to life, that means Guru. Now the Dragonballs are back, and yes even good ol' Vegeta is back from the dead.

Freeza has realized that Gohan is trying to waste time so Freeza will remain on Namek when it explodes. Freeza knocks Gohan around but Gohan gets all pissy and lands in some punches. This surprises Freeza, Freeza powers up back to 100% full power again and gets ready to kill Gohan. When suddenly a golden aura appears, Goku has come back, it looks like Freeza didn't kill Goku after all.

Goku tells Gohan to get off of this planet. After Gohan leaves Goku continues the fight against Freeza. Meanwhile, Kaio has told Guru of his plan of wishing everyone on Namek except for Freeza to the planet Earth. But Kaio is interrupted by Goku, Goku says to wish everyone back except for himself and Freeza. Kaio asks why but Goku says that he should finish the fight now. Kaio agrees and tells Guru of the change. guru in turn, tells Dende to fly to Porunga and make the wish, which Dende does.

Vegeta still thinking that he is dead, gives himself a nice little kidney shot, just to test things out. He realizes that he is alive, he looks up and sees Freeza and Kakkorot fighting. Vegeta flies off to the battlefield. Freeza and Goku are busy fighting, (as usual) when Freeza notices Porunga in the sky. The greedy lizard stops the fight and flies to the dragon, Goku sees this and races up ahead of Freeza. Freeza tells him to back off but Goku just attacks him. Freeza is able to find an opening and kicks Goku, this gives him the time to fly to the Dragon. Freeza immediately wishes for immortality but the Dragon ignores him; instead, Dende who has just arrived, makes the wish in Namekian. Freeza gets pissed off at this and fires a blast towards Dende, but Dende disappears before the blast can reach him. Vegeta who has appeared on the battlefield was about to shoot a ki blast at Freeza also disappears before he can release it. Everyone on Namek has been teleported to Earth, now only Goku and Freeza remain.

Goku laughs at Freeza and says that Freeza forgot to make his wish in the Namekian language. Goku tells Freeza about the wishing back everyone back to life then wishing them all to Earth. Freeza is pissed x 100 and attacks Goku at full speed. Everyone is on Earth, Piccolo has been healed by Dende and asks where he is. Dende tells him that they are on Earth. Guru who is also on Earth fills everyone in on the details, I'm not going to write what he says as they are just information about the wishes and Goku fighting Freeza, blah blah blah, stuff like that.

Now back on Namek, I'll finish this quickly. Freeza tells Goku that there is only 2 minutes left before Namek goes bye bye. The two talk for a while, (they do that a lot during the fight) then they start the fight again. Now back on Earth, a bunch of meaningless events take place, Vegeta gives a speech about the Saiyan race and Piccolo has a flash back about the time he fought Goku. For the next few scenes it switches between Namek and Earth. Lets just skip to the end, as the fight I'm obviously not going to write about. Just watch it for yourselves, at the end of the fight Goku and Freeza are standing face to face, when Goku says that it's over. Freeza asks what the hell Goku is taking about and Goku replies by saying that Freeza's power has been dropping and that he isn't even a challenge to him anymore. With that Goku turns around and flies away.

The End Of Freeza
Freeza, not being able to accept the fact that he has lost creates a kienzan and throws it at Goku, dodges it but the disk continues o follow him like a heat-seeking missile. Goku tries to shake off the disk but it stays close to him. After a neat trick Goku shakes off the disk, Freeza this time creates two kienzans and throws them at Goku. Now back on Earth, Vegeta has this flash back of him, Radditz and Nappa destroying a planet and other stuff. Back on Namek Goku is trying to shake off the two kianzans, Goku flies straight towards Freeza. Freeza laughs and says that trying the same trick twice won't work. Goku fires a ki blast to Freeza's feet causing smoke to come up, Freeza jumps up just before the disks hit him. Now Goku and Freeza have this sort of a boxing match, Goku knocks Freeza down into a crater. But when Freeza tries to jump out of the crater he gets sliced in half by one of his own disks.

Freeza lying on the ground begins to beg for Goku to help him. Goku not knowing what to do gives him some of his own energy. Now Freeza can survive the explosion and go somewhere to hide. Freeza gets up and starts to laugh asking what Goku thinks he will do with the energy. Back on Earth Guru announces that is his time now to pass away, all of the Nameks surround Guru and plead for him not to die. But Guru quiets them down, he tells them that he is happy with the way things have turned out. The seven Namek dragonballs land on Earth. Guru says that the Balls have followed him here. He calls for one of the Namek elders to come forth, he touches his hand and transfers his 'Guru' powers over to him. Now he is the new Guru. guru dies a peaceful death, while everyone grieves.

Now on Namek, Freeza is taunting Goku and saying how Super Saiyan isn't enough to beat dying Planet. Goku responds by saying that it was enough to beat Freeza, and flies away. Freeza, trembling and all, stares up at Goku and starts to have these flashbacks. Flashbacks of the first time he met Goku and everything that happened during their battle. With this, Freeza shoots one last fireball at Goku who is flying away. Goku looks back and yells back at Freeza. Goku shoots a powerful fireball down on Freeza and Freeza vaporizes in the ball.

Freeza is finally defeated, but the battle is still not won. Goku must still find a way off the planet. Goku flies into Freeza's ship and tries frantically to make it work, but nothing happens. The ship falls down and into the lava. With only seconds left, Goku is left standing there, the only one on Namek. The Namek Planet finally explodes and Goku is still on it. Now in space, what once was a planet, is only an empty void.

130 days have passed, Vegeta and the Nameks have been living in the Capsule Corp with Bulma and her family. When the Dragonballs are reactivated they wish for Goku and Krillen's spirits to be brought to Earth, they do this because if they were to wish them back to life Goku and Krillen would be brought back on Namek. And since Namek is gone they would just die again. Porunga says that Krillen has been brought back but Goku can't because Goku is still alive. Everyone is overjoyed at hearing this. So for the second wish everyone wishes for Goku to be brought to Earth, But again Shenlon says that the wish cannot be granted as Goku refuses to be brought back and that he will come back on his own time.

Vegeta knows why Goku hasn't come back, as Goku wanted to train on other planets. With that, Vegeta goes inside Dr. Briefs spaceship and flies off to look for Goku. Everyone decides to use the second wish to bring Krillen back to life, and for the third wish they bring back Yamcha. Now another 130 days have passed and Tienshinhan and Chaozu have been brought back. With the third wish, the Nameks wish for them to be brought to another planet, so that they can start a new life. Everyone says their goodbyes and the Nameks disappear, except for Piccolo of course who remains on Earth.

 

The Cell Saga

Three years passed since Trunks' arrival. A lot has changed since then, Trunks from the future is now called Miari Trunks since Chibi Trunks is born, and Vegeta joins the Z warriors, but having the same attitude. Miari Trunks arrives from the future to find that there is another android, Android #16. The androids in Miari Trunks' timeline are #17 and #18. Also the creator, Dr. Gero, turns himself into Android #21. He is easily defeated by Vegeta who learns how to turn Super Saiyan during his training. Right before he dies, he issues the final command for Android #22 (Cell). Cell is made of single cells from the strongest warriors in the univerese. Cell breaks out of his test tube and seeks to absorb #17 and #18. When Cell finally absorbs the androids, he turns into Perfect Cell. No one can offer a challenge so he starts thinking of all the fights as games (Hence the title, Cell Game). Cell later announces that he will hold a tournament to the warriors that think they can defeat him.
The tournament begins. First, a fighter from Earth, who is really a coward that takes all the credit and is really weak, Mr. Satan. He gets defeated easily by a slap from Cell. Then, Son Gokou fights with Cell, the battle ends with the winner Son Gokou. But Cell gets so mad that he self-destructs and blow up the whole Solar System. He blows up killing both Gokou and Kaiosama. Everyone was sad, but the battle wasn't over yet, Cell somehow regenerated from just one cell from his body, and decides to take Gohan as his next challenger. He tries to piss off Gohan so that he will be more challenging. The plan works when he creates seven Baby Cells who kills his friends. And he kills #16 with a surpise attack. Gohan gets pushed off the edge and powers up and reaches SSJ2, then Cell realizes that he over did it. Gohan defeats the Baby Cells with just one kick to each of them. Son Gohan starts to attack Cell. As the battle goes on, Gohan's right arm gets crippled. He creates a Kamehameha, Cell then creates his own Kamehameha, a stalement is drawn only with the encouragement of his dead father. Son Gohan over powers Cell and kills him with only one arm! Everyone is wished back to life except Son Gokou because he was already wished back to life once. But Gokou was proud of his son and watched over him in the heavens, while King Kaiosama kept on yelling at Gokou for bringing Cell to his planet. Miari Trunks later returns to his own time.

The Buu Saga

Seven years pass since the Cell Game. Krillin marries #18 (who was wished to human by the DragonBalls) and has a daughter named Marron. Chi-Chi has a second son named Son Goten. Son Goten and Trunks (Chibi) turned SSJ at an early age. Son Gohan has a girl friend named Videl, the daughter of Satan ( Satan takes all the credit for killing Cell, this got him really famous ), Son Gohan is also a super hero named the Great SaiyanMan. During The Tenkaichu-Boudoukai, Son Gokou is granted a single day of life to meet with Gohan, Goten, Trunks, Chi-Chi, and all the Z warriors, including Vegeta. Two of Buu's slaves steal Son Gohan's energy, then a man named Kaiosen revives Son Gohan, he then tells of an evil demon named Buu trying to destroy the Earth. If Buu's slaves gather enough energy, he will be revived. Vegeta learning that he can become stronger by turning into Buu's slave, turns evil again. This time he is Majin Vegeta and can turn to SSJ2. This gives Buu enough energy to be revived. Gokou then learns to turn to SSJ2 and fights him and convinces him that good always triumphs over evil. Vegeta finally realizes and self-destructs in hope to kill Buu. Son Gokou then heads to battle aganist Buu. Son Gokou turns SSJ2, and SSJ3! But he still can't defeat Buu. Later, Son Gohan heads to the Kaoiu-sin's planet for training. Then before Son Gokou's time is up on Earth he teaches Son Goten and Trunks the fusion technique, then they get trained by Piccolo so they can be strong enough to beat Buu. Soon after Son Goten and Trunks fuse to become Gotenks, Gotenks turns SSJ1, and then, SSJ3! But Buu has made a twin of himself, but he is a lot more evil than Buu, he even absorbed Buu and thus turning him into Super Buu. Gotenks is defeating Super Buu, but Gotenks is an inexperienced and careless fighter. Buu absorbs Gotenks and becomes a lot stronger, and then he absorbs Piccolo. Dia Kaoiusin then sacrifices his life so Son Gokou can live. Gokou then gets a pair of Potara Earrings for fusion, this way the fused person won't diffuse in 30 min. Son Gokou now alive teleports to the battle. Then King Yama grants Vegeta life to fight Buu. When Son Gokou arrives to the scene he tells Son Gohan to fuse with him, Son Gokou then throws a fusion earing at Son Gohan. Son Gohan drops the earing and Buu absorbs Son Gohan, thus turning himself into Ultimate Buu. Then Vegeta comes to the scene. Vegeta then fuses with Son Gokou to become, Gogeta. Gogeta defeats Buu but purposely gets absorbed to rescue their friends. This somehow wears off the permenent fusion. They rescue Son Goten, Son Gohan, Trunks, Piccolo, and Fat Buu through Ultimate Buu's pores. All of the energy that Buu has taken restores him back to his normal form, Majin Buu. Then he destroys the Earth. Kaoiu-sin teleports to help Son Gokou teleport Vegeta, Satan, his dog, and Dende to Kaoiu-sin's planet. Vegeta gets angry because he rescued them instead of his son and the rest of the Z fighters. Son Gokou was speechless. But there wasn't any time for that, Majin Buu also teleports to the planet Gokou's on, and start to fight. Then Son Gokou starts to get beaten up badly. Vegeta jumps into battle so Son Goku can create a Genki-Dami. The Namek DragonBalls are gathered to wish back the Earth and to wish back everyone killed by Buu. The third wish is stored for later use. Son Gokou's Genki-Dami (Energy given by the Nameks, the people in the Heavens, and everyone on Earth) is ready to throw, Son Gokou throws it, and Buu pushes it back. Vegeta tells Dende to wish back all of Son Goku's strength back. Now with all his strength restored Son Goku throws back the Genki-Dami at Buu. Buu can't counter it any longer, so he is killed. Ten years after the battle aganist Majin Buu, Fat Buu is revived into an evil cleansed form called Uboo. Son Gokou decides to train him since he has great potential. Son Gohan and Videl get married and have a daughter named Pan. This concludes DragonBall Z.
