Snake Way

When Gohan first flew towards King Kai's planet, Goku was leaving him in the dust. But know that Gohan had trained with his living body while Goku trained with his dead one. The tables had turned. Gohan had around two to three fold the stamina and ki reserves then his father had. And you could see the difference when they were flying.

"Gohan!" Goku panted "Don't wait for me! If you have the speed, don't be afraid to use it!"

Suddenly, Gohan got an idea "Dad! Use the Kaioken!"

Goku raised and eyebrow "But wouldn't that strain our bodies to the point of near exhaustion?"

"That's exactly what we want!" Gohan continued "If we completely destroy our bodies getting back, then we can just eat a senzu bean! So we won't only get home faster, but we will get a zenkai boost for our efforts!"

Goku looked at his son and nodded.

"KAIOKEN TIMES TWO!"

A crimson aura shot off of the two as they doubled their speed down the winding path.

Deserted Desert (the pun is real)

Nappa charged at the remaining Z fighters with a furious roar. But the earth-born fighters were prepared and were just able to dodge the massive saiyan.

"Heh, you runts are pretty fast" Nappa chucked "But that's all you can do. Run!"

The saiyan picked a target. Unfortunately for Krillin, it was him.

Nappa charged the monk at a blinding speed. With little time to react, Krillin crossed his forearms in an x-shape to attempt to block the saiyan's attack. Nappa's fist collided with Krillin's blockade. Creating shockwaves that echoed throughout the desert.

To Krillin, it felt as if he blocked a giant freight train barreling at him. The monk was sure that he had at least slightly fractured something in his arms as he quivered backwards in pain.

Nappa took advantage of his slight recoil and grabbed the monk's head and threw him into a rocky outcrop.

Piccolo took advantage of Nappa's brutality and kicked him as hard as he could in the neck while the saiyan threw the monk. The kick didn't even phase Nappa and he punched Piccolo in his unguarded gut, knocking the wind out of him.

"Well, would you look at that" Nappa noticed "They have a Namekian here"

"He's probably the one responsible for the dragon balls" Vegeta continued "So don't kill him"

Piccolo looked up in shock "I-I'm and alien?!" he mumbled to himself.

"Hey green bean!" Nappa shouted "Just because I can't kill you, doesn't mean I can't beat you within an inch of your pitiful life! But first..." Nappa turned towards the remaining fighters "I'm going to 'play' with your friends!"

Tien and Chiaotzu got into their fighting stances as Nappa rushed towards them. The two former Crane students sidestepped the brute and launched their assault. But due to Nappa's sheer size, strength, and speed. Their attacks did nothing. Nappa swung his two massive arms backwards, sending Tien and Chiaotzu flying backwards.

"Not bad" Nappa grunted "That tickled"

"Chiaotzu!" Tien shouted "Use your telekinesis!"

"Right!" The little emperor replied as he closed his eyes and went into deep concentration.

"Wait, telekin-" Nappa was stopped short by a stinging sensation down his spine, he then realized that he was completely paralyzed. He could only watch as Tien floated upwards to prepare his attack.

"Tri-Beam!" Tien shouted as a golden energy began to crackle around his palms.

Even though Nappa couldn't check his scouter, it didn't take a fool to realize how much energy was being condensed into one point. The only thing he knew was that this was going to hurt.

"HAAAA!" The golden energy expanded and shot out of Tien's palms directly towards a Nappa who couldn't even put up his arms in defense. The beam hit its mark, creating a gigantic golden explosion of light and energy.

When the smoke settled however, Nappa stood. His armor was torn to shreds and he was bleeding heavily on his right side.

Nappa seethed "I'll get you for that three-eyes!" he roared as he furiously charged Tien.

Tien fought valiantly against the fury of Nappa. But eventually his form faltered for a split-second, and that was all the time that Nappa needed to clop the triclop's hand clean off his body.

Tien fell to his knees as he clutched his now partially amputated arm and howled in pain.

Nappa chuckled deviously "If you make me bleed, then I make you bleed!"

Chiaotzu clenched his fists to the point of drawing blood as he saw Nappa's cruelty towards his best friend.

"You bastard!" the little emperor shouted at the saiyan as he charged towards him with all his might "That's my best friend!"

Nappa avoided the rage-induced attack with ease "aww" he mused "how cute, avenging your buddy? Well I guess you just wanna be dead faster, huh?"

Chiaotzu turned around and sent a fury of punches and kicks at a rate he didn't think possible. But again, Nappa was able to dodge, block, and counter all of them.

Chiaotzu was running out of options, Nappa would soon kill him along with Tien once he ran out of stamina. He realized that their was only one way he could help. The little emperor fazed out of Nappa's sight and reappeared behind the saiyan as he latched onto his back.

"What are you doing you little runt!" Nappa roared as he began to smash into outcrops to rid himself of the fighter.

Tien realized what his friend was about to do and tried to stop him. "Chiaotzu!" he screamed "don't do it!"

"I'm sorry Tien" Chiaotzu told his friend telepathically "But this is the only way"

Chiaotzu began to give off a bright, white glow. And suddenly, exploded point blank onto Nappa.

"NOOO!" Tien wailed "CHIAOTZU!"

"D-did he do it?.." Krillin asked no one in particular

"I... I think so..." Piccolo mumbled in response.

But in the thick smoke of the explosion, the three remaining fighters heard a chuckle.

The Z fighters eyes widened in shock as they saw Nappa emerge from the blast, relatively unharmed.

"Not bad" Nappa smirked "For a runt like himself" The saiyan flew down in front of Tien. "Ha! How does it feel to know that your little buddy's best efforts didn't even hold a candle to mine!"

"Y-you monster..." Tien looked up with pure hatred and rage in his eyes. "YOU MONSTER!"

The triclops swung his fist at Nappa. The saiyan was just able to get out of the way as Tien's fist brought down an outcrop. Tien then shot towards Nappa and sent out a set of punches and kicks that neither Krillin nor Piccolo could follow. But somehow, Nappa could as he dodged, blocked, and parried all of his attacks.

Nappa, deciding he was done, caught the arm that Tien was punching with and threw his other arm in his gut. The triclops doubled over in pain as Nappa unleashed a relentless assault upon Tien finishing with an axe handle that sent him into a crater.

Nappa chuckled shot a ki blast at Tien, vaporizing him "Well you were fun while you lasted" he looked over at the now two remaining Z fighters "Now, who's next?"

Krillin growled "When Goku gets here, you'll be sorry!"

Nappa narrowed his eyes at the monk.

"Wait Nappa"

The saiyan turned around to see Vegeta landing next to him.

"When you say Goku, do you mean Kakarott?"

"Yeah" Piccolo responded "Why do you ask?"

Vegeta smirked "Then we will wait three hours for him to arrive, if he does not show, Nappa will kill you"

So, the Z fighters waited for a sign that Goku would arrive, hoping that he would come quickly, or they would be dead.

Snake Way

"There it is!"

Gohan had been flying down Snake way for nearly the past twenty four hours. It would have been two days if it weren't for his use of the kaioken to fly faster. The child had been able to push it all the way to times five while Goku could only go to times three. Therefore, Gohan arrived at the check in station a couple of hours before his father did.

"Alright!" Gohan shouted as the check in station came in to view "I just hope I make it there in time"

The demi-saiyan reached the building in seconds to see Kami standing next to King Yemma.

"Gohan! Grab onto my hand!" The guardian of earth shouted. Gohan did as he was told and arrived onto the lookout.

"I got these senzu beans from Korin" Kami quickly stated as he tossed a bag at Gohan "Hurry towards the battle, I'm not sure how much longer they can last"

"Right!" Gohan jumped off the lookout and headed towards the battle.

Deserted Desert (;_;)

It had been one hour since Vegeta had decided to wait for Goku and everyone was beginning to get a bit pent up. Nappa, the saiyan who had killed nearly all of the Z fighters. Was punching the ground in anticipation. Krillin, the monk who had taken out most of the saibamen. Was sitting on a rather large rock and contemplating his situation. Piccolo was being himself as he meditated peacefully in a corner. And Vegeta was toying with his scouter when the piece of hardware went off.

Vegeta put the device back on his head and observed the horizon with a startled look. "Someone is coming this way with a power level of 5,000!"

Nappa gave Vegeta a questioning glance.

"5,000?! That can't be right!" Nappa barked

"If he works together with the others, they could be a serious threat" Vegeta looked towards his partner "Nappa, kill the others off"

"But what about our wish-"

"It doesn't matter!" Vegeta furiously roared "We'll just go to Namek and get our wish there!"

"Whatever" Nappa narrowed his eyes at Piccolo "I'll start with you!"

Although Piccolo was strong, he couldn't hold a candle to a full powered Nappa that needed to get a job done. The namek managed to dodge the first few attacks but was easily overwhelmed by the sheer size and strength of his opponent. Nappa finished his attack sending a massive punched towards Piccolo, creating a gnash in the soil that seemed to be as long as a football field.

"Time to finish you off!" Nappa shouted "HAA!" out of seemingly nowhere, a giant blue beam shot out of Nappa's palms and towards Piccolo. But right as it was about to hit the namek, a golden ki blast landed on top of it. Completely consuming Nappa's blast and exploded harmlessly in front of Piccolo in a plume of dirt and smoke. When the smoke cleared, instead of seeing a charred and burnt Namek, the two saiyans saw a child standing in front of the unharmed Piccolo.

Gohan had arrived.

Finally done! Sorry guys! Stuff got in the way of posting this chapter, but hopefully I made it epic enough to suffice!

That one guy

Great story so far, keep up the good work. And by the way, the super kaioken is an actual thing. Goku used kaioken as a super saiyan, and that resulted in the super kaioken. He used it one while fighting pikkon.

Thank you for your review. I know that the Super Kaioken is an actual thing. I'm just thinking of using it in a more cannon way and not just as filler.

Lightning-Phantom-Storm

Great job. Will Goku still get his heart virus and if so will it be Gohan to bring back the medicine, since your going to pair Goku with Bulma. Unless, they get together when he comes back from Namek. And they have Trunks. Still making so Trunks can come back from the future and give Goku the medicine. If Goku gets the heart virus. I'm going ask about what will happen to Vegeta, because I feel like that its going to be secret until you reveal it in the story, of course.

Thank you for your review. Yes Goku will still get the heart virus but I'm not sure yet who will bring the medicine. As for Vegeta... You're right it is a bit of a secret, but I can tell you one thing, he will be around during the Cell Saga.

Dyton

That was intense. So the saiyan invasion has begun. Nice chapter. I can't wait for the next chapter. Though do you really mean 'West City'?

Thank you for your review! Why wouldn't I mean West City? Did I say the wrong City? D:

Zyphrost

Oh, sorry for the power level confusion... I thought that the base power was 9000... I looked again and it was 6000... But then it was too late... *Exhale* Nice chapter. A little short on the description, especially the fight scenes, but hopefully Goku Vs. Vegeta should make up for that. Also, it IS going to be Vegeta Vs, Goku isn't it? How would they spark a rivalry otherwise? As for the Super Kaioken, Goku uses that as well... In the Otherworld Tournament, during his fight against Pikkon, he goes Super Kaioken for a brief moment. Also, SSJ3 doesn't seem like it can be achieved w/out training in the Otherworld. Vegeta is stronger in GT than Goku at the end of DBZ but he still can't reach SSJ3. There must be some form of ritual like the one Old Kai did with Gohan to unlock that state. How many Sagas do you plan on writing? You gonna do Cell and Buu as well? Or stop at Frieza? I don't think it's such a good idea to let Gohan ascend to SSJ right after Namek blows up. I mean, unless Vegeta is stronger than Gohan after Namek and starts bullying him as well as taunting him, he might go SSJ for a brief second to teach Vegeta a lesson but not to fully master it...

Thank you for your awesome review! Yeah, those fight scenes are really filler. So these next fights should really up the ante. And yes, it will be Goku vs Vegeta. As for SSJ3, I'm not sure what will happen. My personal belief for ssj3 is that you have to exert a lot of power in your SSJ/SSJ2 form and your body adjusts to the sheer amount of power their body exerts. So I believe that if someone who has mastered the SSJ2 from absorbs a gigantic Genki Dama, they can go SSJ3(hint, hint?).
