| Around 5 years have passed since the
end of Dragon Ball, and Son Goku is living with
Chi Chi and their 4 year old son Gohan. The story
begins with Goku and Gohan visiting Muten Roshi
and the rest of their friends. Soon Piccolo also
arrives to meet the Z gang. To everyone's
surprise a stranger lands with him. He reveals
his name is Raditz and he is Goku's older
brother. Raditz says that Goku is a Saiyan from
another planet. Raditz tries to make Goku evil
again so they could take over the universe.
However Goku has been brought up good and
refuses. Raditz becomes angry and kidnaps Gohan. Goku and
Piccolo decide to team up and rescue Gohan. When
they find him, at first their attacks do no good,
Raditz is too strong. But then Piccolo remembers
a move he had meant to use on Goku. While
charging up the attack, Piccolo accidentally
tells Raditz about the Dragon Balls. Raditz sends
a message to Nappa and Vegeta out in space so
they could find the Dragon Balls and wish for
immortality. Piccolo fires his Makankosappo (Beam
Cannon) while Goku holds Raditz from dodging. The
blast kills them both.
Nappa
and Vegeta would arrive in a year. The guardian
of the earth decides that Goku, who is now dead,
should be trained by King Kai. Piccolo decides to
take Gohan away and train him. Krillin, Yamcha
Tien and Chaozu have to train too.
Goku
is travelling along the Snake Way on his way to
Kai's planet. It is a long way, so Goku accepts a
ride from a demon. However he falls asleep and
lands in hell. The only way out is to defeat two
demons. Goku succeeds but still has to get to
King Kai's planet. When he finally gets there,
his training includes catching Bubbles and
whacking Gregory with a mallet while getting used
to 10x gravity. He then learns the Kaioken and
Genki Dama (Spirit Bomb) attacks from King Kai.
The
other Z warriors have been training at Kami's
lookout. Piccolo, while training Gohan, decided
to leave him in the woods alone. After being
beaten up and surviving by himself, Gohan's real
strength is revealed.
After
a year of training, Vegeta and Nappa land on
Earth, and destroy a large city. After meeting up
with Piccolo, Krillin, Tien, Chaozu Yamcha and
Gohan, Vegeta tells them that Piccolo is also an
alien from the planet Namek. The battle begins as
the Saiyans unleash 6 little aliens called
Saibamen. While fighting them, Yamcha is killed.
When the Saibamen have also been killed, Nappa
decides to fight. Tien and Chaozu try to attack
him but are both killed. Vegeta agrees to let
them wait for Goku, but three hours later he
still doesn't arrive. Nappa fires a beam at Gohan
but Piccolo blocks it and is killed, saving
Gohan's life.
Just
then, Goku arrives. He fights against Nappa and
is winning, until Vegeta gets annoyed and kills
Nappa for being so weak. Goku and Vegeta start to
fight. Goku is in the lead using his new Kaioken
technique, when Vegeta makes a giant energy ball
to mimic the moon and transforms into an Oozaru.
Now Vegeta in his ape form is in the lead. Goku
tries to power up a Spirit Bomb, but Vegeta jumps
on him. While Vegeta's back is turned, Yajirobe
appears and cuts off his tail, before running
away. Vegeta, now back to normal turns to Gohan.
Gohan manages to beat up Vegeta, and Vegeta goes
back to his space pod. Krillin wants to stop him
from escaping, but Goku being the good guy says
to spare his life.
Vegeta
flies away and Goku, Gohan and Krillin go to
hospital. Goku is the worst off of the three and
has so many broken bones he is in a full body
cast. Piccolo was killed in the battle and so
Kami has also died. That means there are now no
Dragon Balls on Earth. Bulma, Krillin and Gohan
decide to go to Planet Namek to wish everyone
back to life so the Earth Dragon Balls would come
back too.
