"Yaaah..."

Frieza raised both hands, his face filled with madness. Before the eyes of Son Goku, Son Wuling, and the others, a massive stretch of land rose into the air under Frieza's control, blotting out the sky and sun.

"This is way too ridiculous!"

The corner of Son Wuling's mouth twitched. Frieza's telekinesis was truly terrifying. From what he could sense, the land Frieza had lifted was probably half the size of Earth. More importantly, the ki covering it was enough to easily destroy Namek.

"Frieza, are you trying to destroy Namek?!"

Son Goku shouted at Frieza.

After noticing the situation, King Kai hurriedly contacted Krillin and told him not to summon Shenron for the time being. If Son Wuling and the others could not withstand Frieza's attack, reviving the Namekians would be pointless anyway.

"Hohoho... Dodge, then! Dodge! As long as you dare to dodge, all of Namek will turn into cosmic dust! Hohoho... Our Frieza Race can survive even in space! Hohoho... Die along with Namek!"

Frieza let out a crazed laugh. The repeated appearances of Son Wuling and Son Goku had nearly driven him mad. He had completely forgotten why he had come to Namek in the first place.

Son Wuling's eyes were bright and lively. Even now, he wore a faint smile, showing none of the panic Piccolo, Son Gohan, and the others had.

"Frieza, don't you want immortality? Don't you want the Dragon Balls anymore? You should know that if the Grand Elder dies, the Dragon Balls will disappear along with their creator."

Frieza seemed to have expected this. He let out his signature laugh. "Hohoho... Son Wuling, I knew you would say that. But I already learned the whereabouts of the Dragon Balls from Vegeta's Scouter. The third planet in the Solar System, Earth, also has Dragon Balls. And not only that, I'll kill every last Earthling on Earth as well! Hohoho..."

"Frieza..." Son Goku roared furiously at Frieza as he came to Son Wuling's side with Piccolo and Son Gohan.

Son Wuling stopped the enraged Son Goku and Son Gohan. Looking as though he had Frieza completely figured out, he burst into laughter.

"Y-You, what are you laughing at?" Frieza roared angrily, glaring at Son Wuling as he demanded an answer.

Son Wuling laughed. "Can't you see that Piccolo is also a Namekian? Then of course he knows where Earth's Dragon Balls came from, idiot!"

"What?!"

Frieza froze. The fury filling his heart was instantly extinguished by Son Wuling's words. He looked toward Piccolo. Piccolo was a Namekian too, and he was with them.

Son Wuling continued, "When that happens, you can forget about immortality too. Oh, right, your final form looks pretty short. Why not make another wish on the Dragon Balls to grow five centimeters taller? That way, no one will notice, and they'll just think you're still growing."

Son Wuling's words made Frieza explode with rage once more. Frieza truly wanted to tear Son Wuling's mouth apart. He hurled the continent-sized slab of land, which covered an area nearly half the size of Earth, at Son Wuling and the others. However, he had withdrawn the ki gathered on it. Clearly, for the sake of the Dragon Balls, Frieza had given up on destroying Namek.

Son Wuling raised a hand, forming a Destructo Disc hundreds of meters in diameter before hurling it toward the slab of land.

"Goku!"

Son Goku hurriedly nodded, spreading his hands in the same stance as Son Wuling.

"Tenfold Kaioken!"

Son Goku and Son Wuling gathered power for Kamehameha together. After the Destructo Disc split the massive landmass in two, it continued onward without losing momentum, flying toward Frieza.

"What?!"

Frieza desperately tried to dodge, but his tail was still struck by the enormous Destructo Disc and sliced clean off. He let out a scream of agony.

Son Goku and Son Wuling's Kamehameha had also reached their peak.

"Haah..."

The two thick Kamehameha blasts shattered the divided landmass and continued toward Frieza without losing momentum!

"What..."

Frieza condensed two Death Beams in his palms and collided with Son Goku and Son Wuling's Kamehameha.

At that moment, heaven and earth lost their light. The force radiating from the collision between the Kamehameha and Death Beams nearly blew Piccolo away, making it difficult for him to keep his footing.

"Haah..."

Son Wuling and Son Goku shouted furiously. A massive explosion erupted at the center of the clash between the Kamehameha and Frieza's Death Ray.

Time and space seemed to freeze at that moment. The sparks spreading from the explosion engulfed Frieza, Son Goku, Son Wuling, Piccolo, and Son Gohan alike.

Rumble...

Namek shook violently. The earth and mountains shattered, and everything in the path of the shockwave was annihilated and scattered like dust!

The former land and mountains had completely turned into a desert. Son Wuling and Son Goku's martial arts uniforms were now in tatters as they crawled out of the sand. Son Wuling and Son Gohan were even spitting sand from their mouths nonstop. "Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey..."

"How is everyone?!"

Once the gritty feeling in his mouth was gone, Son Wuling turned around and asked Son Gohan, Son Goku, and Piccolo.

"I'm fine!"

Piccolo, Son Gohan, and Son Goku brushed the sand off themselves and replied.

"Hehe... Wuling, you really saved us. Otherwise, that guy Frieza would probably have destroyed Namek outright."

The orange upper half of Son Goku's martial arts uniform was nearly gone, leaving only his blue undershirt.

"As long as he still wants the Dragon Balls, he won't... Danger!"

Son Wuling's expression suddenly changed. He sensed Frieza flying up from underground. His power was immense, and he was incredibly fast! He was coming for Son Gohan and Piccolo.

"Get out of the way..."

Son Wuling unleashed his ki, blasting Son Goku, Son Gohan, and Piccolo far away.

Bang!

Frieza's hand pierced straight through Son Wuling's chest. The muscles across Frieza's body bulged as he unleashed one hundred percent of his power.

"Hohoho... I was originally going to deal with that little Saiyan brat first and leave you for last so I could play with you slowly. But since you were foolish enough to do this, I'll send you on your final journey. Let's see how you revive this time!"

Frieza used his telekinesis to lift the dying Son Wuling into the sky. Without leaving behind a single word, Son Wuling was reduced to ashes. Blood rained down upon the yellow sands, and Frieza let out his signature laugh.

Suddenly, a tiny seed-like object struck Frieza on the head. Frieza caught it instinctively, thinking it was part of Son Wuling's corpse, but it was not.

"W-Wuling..."

"Uncle Wuling..."

Son Goku and Son Gohan clenched their teeth, unable to believe what they were seeing. Darkness and fury filled their hearts.

"Wuling..."

Piccolo clenched his fists unwillingly, glaring at Frieza as though fire might burst from his eyes.
