Chapter Summaries

Son Gohan questioned Shenron about the limits of Super Saiyan God and struggled to figure out how to strengthen its power of the heart before leaving. Meanwhile, Sorbet and Tagoma revived Frieza, who learned how much the Frieza Force had dwindled and demanded to know why they had waited so long to bring him back.

• Son Gohan asked Shenron whether Super Saiyan God's power boost was fixed, and Shenron said growth depended on the individual before departing.
• Son Gohan caught the Four-Star Dragon Ball and considered whether strengthening the power of the heart could increase Super Saiyan God's potential, but he left without finding an answer.
• Sorbet warned Tagoma that reviving Frieza was necessary and explained the damage Frieza's absence had done to the Frieza Force.
• Frieza emerged from the regeneration chamber, learned that less than one-tenth of his army remained, and dismissed the deserters.
• Sorbet explained that he and Tagoma had used Earth's Dragon Balls and a regeneration chamber to revive Frieza.
• Frieza asked why Sorbet and the others had waited so long to revive him, chilling everyone in the cabin.

Frieza learned about the powerful enemies the Saiyans had defeated and resolved to train before taking revenge on them. Six months later, Jaco warned Bulma that Frieza and an army of tens of thousands would reach Earth in one hour.

• Frieza dismissed Sorbet’s concerns about consolidating the army and said he intended to kill the Saiyans who had defeated him.
• Frieza shot Tagoma for interrupting him, then spared him and ordered him to remain crawling until he understood the lesson.
• Sorbet told Frieza that Son Goku and Son Gohan had defeated Majin Buu and fought Beerus, prompting Frieza to plan six months of serious training.
• Six months later, Jaco arrived at Bulma’s house and warned her that Frieza’s fleet would reach Earth in an hour.
• Bulma grabbed Jaco by the neck in disbelief, and Jaco explained that he had rushed to give her as much warning as possible.

Son Gohan prepared Earth and five hundred Saiyan warriors to face Frieza’s enormous, newly trained force. Frieza arrived above Earth and realized its people had been evacuated, but he still planned to find them after killing the Son family.

• Son Gohan told Bulma to use the Dragon Balls to evacuate Earth’s inhabitants, summon the battle-ready Saiyans, reinforce Earth, and contact the Musli Empire to raid Frieza’s home territory.
• Son Gohan spoke with Jaco about the Galactic King, then left as Bulma began carrying out his orders.
• Bulma evacuated Earth’s inhabitants, and Shenron brought five hundred Saiyan warriors to Son Gohan; he told them they would fight the Frieza Force, and they roared for its destruction.
• Son Gohan sensed Shenron’s reinforcement of Earth and detected Frieza’s densely condensed ki approaching with tens of thousands of soldiers.
• Frieza arrived in the sky above Earth, learned from Sorbet that the Earthlings had likely been relocated with the Dragon Balls, and said he would kill the Son family first.

Son Gohan led five hundred Super Saiyans into battle against Frieza’s vastly larger, enhanced army while he and Frieza watched. The armies clashed, and Tuck confronted Shisami, blasting him back despite Shisami’s training under Frieza.

• Frieza sent his tens of thousands of soldiers against Son Gohan’s five hundred Saiyan warriors before facing Gohan himself.
• Son Gohan ordered the Saiyans to attack, and all five hundred transformed into Super Saiyans at once.
• Tuck split the Saiyans into three groups with two companions and led the charge against Frieza’s forces.
• Tuck charged toward Shisami, who refused to retreat and met him with a punch.
• Tuck overpowered Shisami and sent him flying, leaving Shisami shocked by the strength of the Saiyans.

Tuck fought Shisami, whose training in Hell had made him powerful enough to challenge Tuck and unleash a devastating beam. After their attacks collided, Tuck used Instant Transmission and Solar Flare to blind Shisami, then gathered his aura around his fist for a move that surprised Son Gohan.

• Shisami unleashed his full power and briefly gained the upper hand against Tuck, who welcomed the challenge.
• Shisami fired a powerful red beam, and Tuck countered with his Annihilation Energy Cannon; their collision killed more than a thousand Frieza Force soldiers.
• Frieza watched the battle and declared that he would kill Son Gohan and Son Goku before exterminating the Saiyans.
• Tuck used Instant Transmission to appear behind Shisami and blinded him with Solar Flare.
• Tuck concentrated his golden aura around his right fist and launched Saiyan Fist, a technique Son Gohan had not taught him.

Tuck defeated Shisami and led the Saiyans in routing Frieza’s forces, then challenged Frieza despite Son Gohan’s warning. Frieza easily blasted Tuck away and told him to stop interfering with his fight against Son Gohan, but Tuck prepared to reveal his true strength.

• Tuck’s layered-energy punch broke through Shisami’s defenses and blasted him apart.
• Tuck led the five hundred Saiyans in driving back the Frieza Force until they were exhausted, then they used Senzu Beans to recover and transform again.
• Frieza dismissed Sorbet’s concern for his soldiers, and the Saiyans defeated the remaining Frieza Force troops as they fled.
• Tuck asked Son Gohan for permission to challenge Frieza, and Son Gohan advised him to prepare before letting him go.
• Tuck attacked Frieza in Super Saiyan 2, but Frieza repelled him with a wave of energy and told him to stop interfering with his fight against Son Gohan.
• Tuck stayed in place and declared that he would show Frieza his true strength.

Tuck transformed into Super Saiyan 3 and fought Frieza, using precise ki control before revealing that he had mastered the Kaioken. Frieza was briefly knocked back but threatened to kill Tuck if the Kaioken was his final trump card.

• Tuck ate a Senzu Bean, transformed into Super Saiyan 3, and challenged Frieza while Son Gohan watched.
• Son Goku and Vegeta sensed Tuck's power from the Planet of the God of Destruction as Whis offered to project the battle.
• Frieza effortlessly dodged Tuck's attacks in his basic form until Tuck suppressed his ki and refined his control during the fight.
• Tuck's improved ki control forced Frieza to defend against his attacks with his tail, though Frieza remained impatient.
• Tuck unleashed the Kaioken and struck Frieza hard enough to knock him back several meters, prompting Frieza to threaten him.

Tuck used partial Kaioken to overwhelm Frieza briefly, then tried to transform into a god when Frieza’s final form proved too powerful. He failed to reach Super Saiyan God but attained a demigod state and faced Frieza again.

• Tuck used Kaioken in bursts across parts of his body to pummel Frieza, then unleashed a thirtyfold Kaioken energy barrage that Frieza brushed aside unharmed.
• Frieza transformed into his final form and advanced through Tuck’s attacks, leaving Tuck facing an overwhelming gap in strength.
• Tuck dispelled Super Saiyan 3 and attempted to become a god, but instead entered a black-haired base form with ki beyond Super Saiyan 3 that Son Gohan identified as demigod rank.
• Tuck charged Frieza in his new state, and their fists collided with enough force to send faint ripples outward.
