The Man Who Killed Frieza Was Son Goku

Beckett was surprised.

It was a real accident.

He had always believed that he was the last remaining Saiyan, but he never expected to see a new Saiyan other than himself in a universe near his original universe coordinates.

"Watch your tone, stranger."

As the only henchman Beckett brought along on this trip to seek revenge, Woz held out his chubby little hand to Trunks, raising his index finger to indicate that he was not allowed to disrespect Beckett.

Who are you?

Android 17, feeling ignored, frowned, clearly annoyed.

If Beckett hadn't given him an unusually mysterious and powerful aura, he would have slapped him long ago.

"You too, watch your tone when you speak to His Highness Beckett." Woz, who was originally facing Trunks, suddenly turned his attention to Android 17, whose face had darkened instantly.

Do you want to die?

Android 17 squinted, a murderous intent stirring within him.

The last person who dared to speak to him in this tone was Vegeta, but he died later.

Admittedly, Beckett struck him as mysterious and formidable.

But Android 17 didn't think he couldn't kill him.

It'll just take a little more effort; at worst, we can call in more people, including Android 18. If adding Android 18 doesn't work, we can keep calling in more people—there are plenty of androids.

"Your His Highness Beckett, the scan results for this man are very strange."

"Based on the information available, he appears to be a Cyborg."

"Parts of his body have been modified into mechanical parts, and there is also an energy furnace inside his body that seems to provide a continuous source of energy for his activities."

After glancing at the rather impolite Android 17, Woz turned around and had already assessed his physical condition to a great extent.

"Cyborgs?"

Beckett's indifferent gaze annoyed Android 17.

It's like a god high above, capable of deciding life and death with just a few words.

Android 17 hates this feeling.

He should have been the hunter.

"Just a failed product." Beckett simply ignored Android 17. He'd seen Cyborgs before; his former sister Nebula was a genuine Cyborg, to say the least.

His goal, from beginning to end, has always been the same...

"Frieza, where is he?" Beckett, whose back was completely exposed to Android 17, turned his gaze to the anxious Bulma.

"Frieza?"

Are you sure?

Bulma, who also responded to Beckett in English, resolved Woz's earlier concerns about the language barrier.

"He's already dead." Bulma, barely suppressing her panic, revealed the truth directly.

"He's been dead for a long time, probably ten or twenty years, but I can't remember the exact number."

"If you're looking for revenge against Frieza, I think you're probably too late."

Bulma glanced out of the corner of her eye at the Planet Vegeta escape pod that had landed to Beckett's left, and a guess began to form in her mind.

He's Saiyan, he has an escape pod, and most importantly, he seems to have a deep-seated hatred for Frieza. So Beckett's identity is obviously obvious.

[Dead...?]

Beckett was unusually distracted.

Before setting off, he thought about many things related to Frieza, but he never considered the possibility that Frieza was dead.

"Hello!"

"Danger!"

"Careful!"

Bulma's sharp voice suddenly rang out in the night sky, and the previously ignored Android 17 seized the moment when Beckett was distracted and made his move.

The five fingers that had once killed Saiyan moved unimpeded all the way, as if they were about to pierce Beckett's head in the next second!

Buzz!

[What?!]

Just as the attack was about to succeed, Android 17's expression suddenly changed when his fist was only a step away from Beckett.

He had nowhere left to go.

Android 17 felt as if he had fallen into an endless swamp, unable to move forward or backward.

What's going on with this force?!

Why, why can't I move at all?!

Android 17 stared wide-eyed, meeting Beckett's cold and indifferent gaze head-on.

Thump!

Turn around and deliver a whip kick.

Android 17 had been terrorizing Earth for over a decade, suddenly smashed a deep crater into the ruins of the ground!

"Who gave you the courage to attack me?"

Step... step... step...

As the smoke cleared, a disheveled Android 17 clutched his broken Mechanical Arm as he watched the figure approaching him.

His eyes were filled with terror.

"This power..."

"Impossible..."

"Impossible..."

"Impossible!"

That utterly irresistible force caused Android 17 to experience the fear of death for the first time.

It is not air, nor is it any form of energy utilization on Earth.

But it was so enormous that it disoriented Android 17, causing him to completely lose the will to resist.

"Disappear."

Gazing down at the android slumped in the deep pit, Beckett's face was cold as he stretched out his right hand and clenched it in the air.

Bang!

Machines and flesh flew together! Parts and blood splattered everywhere!

"Celebrate!"

Staring blankly at Beckett's back as he effortlessly annihilated Android 17, Trunks' shock was quickly dispelled by Woz's celebratory shouts.

"The great Lord of the Dark Order, the strongest New God in the Multiverse!"

"The Super Saiyan God Beckett, who surpassed everything!"

"A war that transcends the universe—uh..."

"What was it again, a war...?"

Woz was annoyed when he stumbled over his hymn, but the "Complete Collection of His Highness Beckett's Congratulatory Remarks" that he pulled out from his belly pocket left Trunks and Bulma speechless.

What's going on here?

It even comes with its own celebratory theme?

So much prestige?

"Um, um, if I may ask, this—"

"I want to know how Frieza died and who killed him."

Now, tell me.

He easily dealt with Beckett's turn on Android 17, and his imposing gaze caused Trunks and Bulma to break out in a cold sweat.

"No problem." Bulma nodded vigorously, realizing what was happening.

"However, this story might be a bit long, and you might need to sit down and listen slowly." Bulma, who also had doubts about Beckett, made an inviting gesture towards Beckett and Woz.

"Mother--"

"Trust me, Trunks."

Trunks was about to say something when Bulma stopped him, and he could only watch helplessly as Beckett, a stranger, brushed past him.

"The person who killed Frieza was called Son Goku."

"Like you, he is also Saiyan, and can be considered a survivor of the explosion of Planet Vegeta."

"Speaking of which, you and he do look a bit alike."

Upon entering the house, Bulma handed Beckett a photo of herself with Son Goku Krillin Master Roshi, and others from her younger days.

In the photo, Son Goku, with an umbrella and bandages wrapped around his head, Krillin, still short and bald, Master Roshi, the lecherous Master Roshi, and Bulma, with her face full of collagen, all smile at the camera, reuniting after a long separation.

At that time, not many things had happened yet, and Bulma had not yet met Vegeta.

That year, the world was still good.

"Is this Saiyan named Son Goku your husband?" Woz asked curiously, holding the photo he had taken from Beckett.

"No, of course not. Why would you think that? Goku and I are just good friends."

Bulma smiled and shook her head.

"My husband's name is Vegeta, a prince of the Saiyan race."

PS1: When I read the manga back then, I genuinely believed that Goku and Bulma would be a couple as adults...

After all, the man is handsome and the woman is beautiful.

When they reunited at the World Martial Arts Tournament venue, the grown-up Goku and the youthful and energetic Bulma were a perfect match!

PS2: I'll see if I can manage to write another chapter tonight...
