[NARRATOR] Last time, on Dragon Ball Z!

Nappa and Vegeta continued their conquest of the planet,

much to the terror and dismay of Krillin and Gohan.

But Goku, having finally returned to Earth

with the new skills taught to him by King Kai,

put a sudden halt to the Saiyans' sinister plans.

Thanks a lot, Vegeta...

[NARRATOR] Not to be outdone, Vegeta took the shame

of his comrade's failure into his own hands,

and brought their partnership to an end...

Die!

[NARRATOR] Permanently.

[NARRATOR] Vegeta seems confident of victory,

but Goku still has a few surprises in store

for the evil Saiyan...

When the battle continues... today!

[VEGETA] So, Kakarot, are you ready?

[VEGETA chuckling]

[GOHAN whimpering]

I know a better place!

Wherever! Just lead the way!

[GOKU thinking] I've got to be careful...

There's no telling how powerful he is...

[KRILLIN] Well, there they go.

[GOHAN] Yeah...

[KRILLIN] Gohan, I, uh, I guess we'd better get going.

Hey, Gohan, try not to worry!

Your dad knows what he's doing,

he's got everything under control!

Really, I mean it!

Goku is the toughest guy in the whole world!

Hey, plus, you and I are a team!

We really did great! Don't you think?

Yeah!

[KRILLIN] Now, let's get you back to your mother.

I think she'll be pretty happy to see you.

Yeah, no one will get hurt if we fight way out here.

Kakarot...

I have a proposition for you...

[VEGETA] I'm only going to say this once,

so listen carefully.

I, Vegeta, Prince of all Saiyans,

would like to offer you, Kakarot,

the opportunity to stand beside me in this conquest.

With Nappa gone, I could use a good man!

[VEGETA] Think about it... We would rule the planets.

You could have anything you desired.

There's no one in the universe that could touch us!

[VEGETA] Nothing would be out of your grasp!

Well, what do you say, Kakarot?

I have everything that I could ever want

right here on Earth!

So, I'll have to say... no thanks.

Besides, I've seen how you treat your partners.

Not much job security...

[VEGETA chuckling]

Alright, then, so be it! You had your chance!

[GOKU] Hyaah!

[fighting sounds]

Raah!

[fighting sounds]

[GOKU yelling]

[VEGETA] Say goodbye!

Man, he's good! Far better than I expected him to be...

I'll still beat him!

Kakarot... What's wrong?

I was hoping for a more interesting fight!

You'll get one! I promise!

[GOKU grunting]

[GOKU snarling]

[GOKU snarling]

Kaio-Ken... Attack!

Ah?!

Ngagh!

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Haah!

Hmph!

[VEGETA] That Kaio-Ken Attack is a nice trick,

but I've encountered something just like it before!

Hah?!

[VEGETA chuckling]

Don't tell me that's all you've got?

If it is, you'd better quit!

[VEGETA laughing]

Heh. Funny... As grim as things look right now,

I kind of like the challenge!

[BABA] Look into my crystal ball,

with your own eyes, you'll see it all!

[chanting]

[BABA] Crystal ball, bring to our sight,

news of this important fight...

Uh, we're all waiting!

What's wrong with it?

You banging it around, that's what!

Alright! I've had it with you!

Bring it on, bow-head!

Wait, girls! It's not broken! Stop it!

I think the crystal ball is overwhelmed.

Goku and Vegeta are emitting

an inconceivable amount of energy!

This isn't exactly an ordinary fight!

So, it's started?

I mean Goku and that guy are fighting?

Yes, I believe so.

I know! We can check it out on the Scouter!

[ROSHI] Good thinking, Bulma! What does it say?

Let's see... Two huge power levels due west!

Only two?

Uhh... mm-hmm...

[CHICHI] Oh, Daddy!

[OX KING] There, there...

[CHICHI crying]

[thinking] Please, Dad... Be careful...

[VEGETA thinking] Look at him! Smiling and ready for more!

Who does he think he is?

What kind of power could he possibly be hiding?

Guess I'll just have to find out...

That's it? That was your best?

I've got some bad news for you...

You may be stronger than anyone else on this planet...

But even at your peak, you're still no match for me!

Wanna bet?

[VEGETA] Hah! No need to wager... Behold!

The true power of a Saiyan Prince!

[VEGETA growling]

[VEGETA snarling]

[VEGETA roaring]

Oh, man! What power!

I think the whole planet is actually shaking!

[TV NEWSMAN] Although our brave news team

has been reporting live on location

throughout this entire ordeal,

unknown technical difficulties beyond our control

have repeatedly interrupted our broadcast.

We can only assume that the fighting is still taking place,

and that these strange displays of power and abilities,

far beyond that of the human condition,

are behind the abrupt changes in the state of our planet.

In a related story,

world leaders from countries around the globe met today

to discuss possible plans of action

to deal with these super powered beings, hoping--

Well, I guess we'll never find out

what's going on out there...

Hey! Go sleep it off at home, blondie!

Can it, jerk... Fill 'er up!

That'll be your tenth! You got money?

[LAUNCH] Here...

Whu--!

The whole world's going down the toilet...

Which means all that cash is useless now anyway...

Hey... are you alright?

Well, if you don't want this money anymore... I'll just...

[LAUNCH] What's that?!

Guh! What's what?

What's that sound? Listen!

Uh... That's just static!

[distant rumbling]

[distant rumbling]

[crowd murmuring]

What's going on?

Look! Up in the sky!

[screaming]

[birds squawking]

That's freaky... What's wrong with them?

[VEGETA grunting]

Hunh?!

What power... Amazing!

[VEGETA growling]

[growling continues]

[VEGETA shouting]

[GOKU shouting]

[VEGETA yelling]

[yelling continues]

[GOKU panting]

[GOKU] I think it's finally over...

Whoa... That was incredible!

And now everything is calm... too calm...

[VEGETA] Kakarot!

Farewell... You're finished!

[GOKU shouting]

[VEGETA] What's the matter? Can't find me?

Haah!

Kaio-Ken! Times two!

Hraagh!

[VEGETA chuckling]

Well now, missed him... How nimble!

[VEGETA] Nice one!

[thinking] What an incredible level of power!

I'd better think of something fast...

I don't know how much longer I can keep this up!

I've got no choice...

If the Double Kaio-Ken Attack doesn't work,

I guess I'll try a triple!

Sorry, King Kai, but I don't see any other way!

[VEGETA] What's the matter, Kakarot?

You don't seem too eager to continue!

Don't tell me you already need to catch your breath?

We were just getting started!

[GOKU] Don't wait on me! Feel free to lead off anytime!

[thinking] Goku's insane!

This guy's beating him senseless,

but he just keeps coming back for more!

I know Goku's tough, but it seems like this time,

he's finally met his match...

[VEGETA] This staring contest is beginning to irritate me.

Are you planning on continuing our fight anytime today?

What's it going to be? I'm tired of waiting!

[thinking] Alright, I'll try the triple Kaio-Ken attack!

I sure hope my body can take it!

[VEGETA laughing]

I keep forgetting that you're an Earthling now!

You don't even have a tail, do you?

You let them operate on you?

What'd they do, get you while you were sleeping?

Now I see why you have no desire to join me on the hunt!

If we still had a home planet,

you'd be a laughing stock there!

[YAJIROBE thinking] Oh, man!

It looks like Goku's in big trouble!

I've got to help him somehow...

And I guess the best way for me to do that

would be to, uh... Hide! Somewhere over this way...

[thinking] Okay, this is it! Time to see what I'm made of.

[GOKU grunting]

Hmm?!

[GOKU growling]

Alright, here goes nothing! Kaio-Ken Attack times three!

What? No! I told him not to go over a double!

No matter what!

This isn't good. I don't know if his body can handle it!

I didn't have time to prepare him for that...

[KING KAI whimpering]

Oh, Goku... Please be careful...

[BUBBLES chattering]

[GREGORY] C'mon, Goku! You can do it!

[GOKU yelling]

Uh!

[CHICHI] What's it say?

Wow! Look at it go!

Hey, let me try it, Bulma!

Can it, Oolong! This isn't a game!

Goku's power level is rising rapidly!

At this rate he'll explode!

[BABA] Oh, my!

[CHICHI] Oh, no! Goku!

Seventeen thousand... Nineteen thousand... Over twenty-one!

Ahh!

[OOLONG] Whoa!

[CHICHI] Bulma, are you okay?!

Yeah, I think so...

[OOLONG] Whoa-hoa! Talk about overload! Man!

Uhh... ahh!

Huh?

[GOHAN whimpering]

[KRILLIN] Hey, Gohan, what's the matter? Gohan?

[KRILLIN] Let's keep moving... Come on!

We gotta get to Kame House!

[thinking] Daddy, what is that? Something's different...

[GOKU growling]

What? No way!

[GOKU growling]

Rraagh!

[NARRATOR] What new level of power has Goku reached?

And is this new power enough to stop

Vegeta's path of destruction?

Goku is determined to see this through to the end,

but, with the unpredictability of Vegeta,

what else might be in store for him?

Find out, on the next action-packed episode
