Z Fighters

The battle below had already ended...

Piccolo seized the instant Amond's high-speed spinning attack stalled and fired a beam from his eyes, destroying Amond's Scouter. The explosion's smoke blocked his vision, allowing Piccolo to seize the opening and launch a fatal strike.

After a year of grueling training, Piccolo had greatly increased the firing speed of the Special Beam Cannon. After a brief charge, he could fire it, and one shot pierced straight through Amond's heart.

Krillin and Yamcha also worked together remarkably well, driving Dez into a dead end. The Spirit Ball's tracking ability combined with the Destructo Disc's powerful cutting force eventually left Dez attacked from both front and back, and he fell under the double assault.

Elsewhere, Tien Shinhan used the Solar Flare to blind Kakao, then fiercely suppressed him with a Kikoho, nearly blasting through the ground and sending him deep underground.

Gohan and Chiaotzu had been struggling to hold on and were at a disadvantage. But the brothers Reiz and Lakasei made a mistake. Eager for slaughter, they pummeled Chiaotzu until he coughed blood and collapsed, then fired Kikoho to finish him off. And so, Gohan erupted...

Never clash beams with the Son family, and never make Gohan angry. That was an eternal truth.

The enraged Gohan moved at incredible speed and threw himself in front of Chiaotzu. His furious Masenko blinded them and shattered their bodies. The poor brothers' expressions froze on their lifeless faces as they screamed three words before dying: "Impossible."

The warriors gathered together, carried Chiaotzu to Nappa, who was unable to fight, to rest, then flew toward the top of the Sacred Tree.

Raditz saw them.

"Raditz, what do we do now? This Saiyan's Ki is unimaginably strong. I'm afraid even if we attack together, we won't be a match for him," Tien Shinhan said worriedly.

Forget attacking together. Even ten of us would be useless. Raditz looked at Turles's enormous figure and shook his head.

"Damn! Isn't this Saiyan technique way too terrifying?"

"Is there no way? If we cut off his tail again, we can deal with him, right?"

"Easier said than done. He must be guarding against that now. One mistake, and we could die." Piccolo was even more cautious. He knew cutting off the tail would not be easy.

Raditz took a deep breath, then suddenly looked at everyone, sharp light gleaming in his eyes. "It isn't impossible, but everyone has to contribute. Remember, we only get one chance! Like this..."

After Raditz briefly explained the battle plan, everyone felt that this was the only way.

"Let's go."

With Raditz in the lead, everyone lined up across the ruins. Their faces and bodies bore wounds of varying severity, their clothes were tattered, and they were covered in dust. They were about to face an overwhelmingly powerful enemy and might very well die because of it, yet every one of them looked resolute. It was the kind of courage that would not change expression even with a Kikoho aimed at their brow.

The wind brushed across their cheeks, carrying a faint chill. The Great Ape's white-light barrage had ended. The time had come.

"Haha, I never expected to fight alongside so many people." Krillin charged out, using laughter to ease the unease in his heart.

"Maybe this is the last time. Cherish it." Tien Shinhan was the second to set off.

"We can win!"

With Raditz's loud shout, everyone else scattered and attacked!

Running in front, Krillin threw out a Destructo Disc. The spinning disc sped toward Turles's tail; if it hit, the battle would end.

A fierce wind came from behind, Ki waves surged, and the Destructo Disc was only a few meters from Turles's tail. The powerful impact was practically against his body. At that moment, Turles moved!

His feet moved!

His steps twisted strangely backward and to the side, and he flexibly turned his waist to conceal his tail. Who could have imagined such a massive body could move so nimbly? The Destructo Disc grazed past Turles's hip and shot into the sky.

The next second, his powerful waist snapped him back into position like a spring, and he fired a beam of surging energy toward Krillin!

"Get out of the way!" Seeing things go wrong, Raditz fired an energy blast first, knocking Krillin aside.

Turles froze, not expecting such a move.

But immediately afterward, a roar came from the sky. Gohan unleashed Masenko. Its weak power did not concern Turles at all, and he laughed as he raised his head, facing Gohan directly and taking the attack head-on.

Boom!

An explosion went off on Turles's face, but he was completely unharmed.

"Brat, you dare challenge me with that little strength?"

"What about this?"

Tien Shinhan shouted from behind Turles's head. Instinctively, Turles turned to look, only to find himself facing a Solar Flare!

The blazing light instantly turned his vision white, robbing him of sight. At that moment, Krillin had already prepared a second Destructo Disc and hurled it out!

This time, Krillin aimed at the base of Turles's tail, intending to cut it off outright. Wouldn't it be even better if he sliced off half his ass?

Just as the Destructo Disc was about to succeed, Great Ape Turles suddenly fell over, rolled once, and dodged the slash again.

"Damn it, it failed!"

"You trash actually used such tricks." Turles blinked repeatedly, slowly regaining his vision as his fury intensified. If he had not thought quickly, he really might have been caught in their sneak attack.

In his rage, he leaped up, rapidly swinging his fists. He blasted Tien Shinhan away and knocked him down in one blow. Then he turned, opened his mouth, and fired a shockwave at Gohan. Gohan panicked and did not know what to do.

Just as the white shockwave was about to swallow Gohan, a faint glow collided with it at the boundary, blocking the blast! Piccolo and Goku appeared beside Gohan. Both gave it their all and protected him. Ki thundered and exploded, wind howled all around them, and countless fragments of earth rose and were swept into the vortex of energy.

Raditz seized the chance to leap up, while Yamcha spun gracefully through the air and dashed forward at top speed.

"Solar Flare!" Tien Shinhan's cold shout rang out from the sky once more.

Turles was shocked, but he did not dare turn around again. He directly fired energy blasts into the sky, striking Tien Shinhan once more.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Tien Shinhan appeared before him again! A duplicate created by the Multi-Form Technique!

"How..."

Before he could finish, the Solar Flare's light swallowed him. At the same time, Krillin fired another Destructo Disc, while Piccolo extended his arms and wrapped them tightly around Turles's body, pinning him in place.

Their coordination was flawless.

Opportunity would not come twice.

Turles was utterly astonished. This chain of attacks exceeded his expectations. He had planned to eliminate Tien Shinhan first, then deal with Gohan, but who would have thought their ultimate moves were so bizarre? Now his body was restrained and he could not see. The situation was incredibly dangerous. Forget cutting off his tail—they might even slice open his body.

The Destructo Disc cleaved down with murderous intent, splitting even the ground with a long crack...

"Get the hell away from me!"

Turles gritted his teeth as a surge of furious Ki suddenly burst outward, shattering Piccolo's arms and blowing them into pieces. Piccolo barely held on, but before that overwhelming power, he had no choice but to fall back.

Not only that, Turles immediately stepped forward and erupted with Ki, forming an invisible barrier that deflected the Destructo Disc!

The Destructo Disc flew into the sky once again, and everyone's hearts suddenly went cold.

It was over...

"It isn't over yet!"

Yamcha's fingers danced as the massive Spirit Ball flew in from beyond the sky, caught the Destructo Disc, and used the Spirit Ball's energy to forcibly press the Destructo Disc back toward Turles!

Just a little more!

The Spirit Ball did not have enough power to break through the Great Ape's Ki barrier!

At the critical moment, Vegeta appeared. His attack had finished gathering power and shot straight at Turles. Raditz's full-power Shining Impact Wave, unleashed in his x5 Kaio-ken state, followed close behind. The attacks of the two Saiyans shattered the barrier!

The air shook, the ground exploded apart, and rocks and soil shattered!

The Destructo Disc shot forward and touched Turles's tail! At that very instant, Turles regained his vision and used astonishing power to knock the Destructo Disc away. Blood seeped from his tail, but it still had not been severed.

"Hahahahaha!"

Turles laughed wildly and without restraint. In contrast, everyone else was out of options.

"Hahahahaha... Ha... Ah..." Turles's expression suddenly changed. His body stiffened and slowly began to transform...

Behind him, a katana cleanly sliced through his tail.

"Y-Yajirobe?!"

Everyone stared in stunned disbelief.

Sure enough, at the crucial moment, you needed a Yajirobe.

There would be team-ups and solo runs alike.
