Everyone stood in the cold silence, needing to know what they're going to do next. Most of the squadron were defeated except one, Ginyu. Him being the leader might cause some problems, not knowing what power he held.

Goku then pointed towards a direction, silently alerting everyone to turn towards him. "I can sense a strong ki," he announced. "That's probably where Frieza is" his words made Krillin and Gohan eyes widen in realization.

"B-but that's where the Grand Elder is!!" shouted the bald warrior. "He must be searching for the rest of the namekians to tell him what to do next!" he added as Gohan began to explain more of the problem.

"Once he finds out how to get his wish granted, he'll just kill the grand elder like he did to the others!" Before he could explain anything else, you felt an energy of ki heading towards you all.

"Someone's coming this way!" you quickly alerted as everyone turned to where you were staring, now starting to feel the ki as well. In the distance was a purple alien that wore the same armor as the others but had the squadron badge on its chest area.

"So this must be the leader" you lightly informed as you heard the beeping noise from his scouter. "I guess there's only one way to find out. This guy's power puts his teammates to shame" Goku added.

"I can't believe that two saiyans were able to defeat my squadron" he lowly exclaimed with a gruff and raspy tone. "One has a power of 5000, and the other, I can't get a reading on him"

The self-explanation caused him to emit a sigh of annoyance, he couldn't believe that his team was defeated so easily. "The two must be the type of fighters capable of bumping up their power level"

One side of his lips quirked up to form a smirk, feeling his interests rise up to fight you and Goku. "I never imagined that I, Ginyu, would ever have to show off my true power" his cold words hung in the air, causing Krillin and Gohan to take a defensive stance.

"Me and Nemui will keep this guy busy" instructed Goku. "Find the radar and start looking for the dragon balls. They're probably near their spaceship" the explanation earned him a nod from the two as they took flight.

"Vegeta, if you join in on the fight, we can probably tire him out and end the fight quickly" you added, making the shorter saiyan smirk, instantly liking the plan. You three turned your gaze towards Ginyu, already seeing him take a defensive stance.

Before the fight could start, Vegeta took off flying, causing the both of you to watch in disbelief. "Catch you later, you two!!" were the only words that could be heard as Goku received an elbow to the jaw.

"You're wide open!" taunted the purple soldier as he tried to catch you off guard by aiming a kick towards your torso, but you were able to dodge it in time. You aimed a punch towards his face, but he dodged and tried to pull a counter move, but you aimed a ki ball towards the ground, creating distance.

With quickness, Goku started throwing a barrage of punches, only landing a few of them. You moved forwards as you aimed a blow to the side of his torso, making him groan in pain and gain some more distance.

"Vegeta, you double-crosser..." muttered Goku. "You're both better than I gave you credit for..." he mocked. "If Vegeta hadn't bailed on the two of you, you might've still had the chance!"

A sharp exhale escaped your lips as you spoke telepathically to Goku. 'We're gonna have to settle this quickly' Goku silently nodded before replying. 'I know, if we take too long, Vegeta's gonna have the dragon balls for himself!'

As the both of you took a stance, Ginyu did the same action, ready to resume the fight. "If I knew you both were this cocky, I'd have taken the both of you down from the start!"Ginyu taunted.

"The truth is, Goku and I are quite alike. I, too, am able to control my power level at will" he then turned his gaze towards you, a full smirk fully forming on his lips. "And I couldn't get a reading on you, but I feel like you are definitely on the same level"

With no hesitation, you both felt his ki rise, watching a light purple aura fully surround him. Putting his hand forward, he sent out a large ki orb towards you both, aiming it towards the ground. You both succeeded in dodging the blast as you both rushed towards him.

While debris flew everywhere, it gave you time to attack him. He blocked Goku's kick towards the head but couldn't block the forceful knee that you aimed at his face. He quickly ducked to try and kick both of you, but you vanished out of the way.

Appearing in front of him, you three exchanged punches, kicks, and counters with new-found speed. Ginyu decided to take the fight in the air, making you both quickly go after him.

His eyes widened in shock, didn't know that you two could take flight faster than him. Feeling his frustration rise, he soared right towards you. You felt his arms firmly wrap around you, forming a crushing bear hug.

'What the hell is he trying to do...?!' You aimed kick after kick to his lower torso, making his hold falter. Aiming for another, he released you, making you fly a few distance away from him.

He stared at the both of you with a wicked look in his eyes, not believing what was going on during the fight. "Did you really think I wouldn't notice that the two of you were holding back your strength?"

He began to chuckle to himself. He wanted an actual fight, wanting to feel both of your ki at its fullest. "It's not often I get to enjoy a good fight, so don't patronize me by holding back!"

Goku turned his gaze towards you, already seeing that you were staring back at him as you both exchanged sly smiles. "Should we show him, Goku?" you lightly insisted as Goku excitedly nodded.

"Sounds good to me..." He turned his gaze towards Ginyu. "We'll show you both our full power" exclaimed Goku, watching a wide smile plastered on the purple soldier's lips.

You both stood in a charging stance as you both felt your ki skyrocket, causing Ginyu's scouter to rapidly beep louder and louder. He turned his gaze towards Goku. "90,000? 100,000? 110,000?!"

'It's still rising! How can he hold this much power?! There's no way his power level surpasses 180,000!' He then turned his gaze towards you, feeling body flinch when his scouter couldn't read your power level.

He felt the scouter overheating as it started to crack in multiple places before crumbling into many pieces. Ginyu stood there in shock, he couldn't believe what he had just witnessed.

"I... I can hardly believe it. Are you both at your true power?!" he exclaimed, now fully believing on how his squadron was easily defeated by the both of you. "Let us be clear..." you announced, breaking Ginyu's train of thought.

"What you just witnessed right now is nothing compared to what we can put out in short bursts" Your cold words made Ginyu freeze in place. 'T-there's no way!' he thought as he felt beads of sweat dripping down his forehead.

"D-don't tell me..." he paused, unsure if the words that were about to come out of his mouth would explain why you both have so much power. "Are you two super saiyans?!" he finally blurted out.

"Those are the same words Vegeta told us" you spoke as Goku emitted a hum. You both still didn't know what it could mean. "Look, I hate to say this, but there's no way that you can beat us" Goku spoke in a firm tone, wanting to hurry with the fight.

"What did you just say?!" exclaimed Ginyu, feeling his anger rise from the cockiness that was coming from the both of you. "You don't want to waste time fighting? You don't want to kill me?!"

You both stared at him with questioning looks, wondering what he was going to ramble on next. "You two haven't reached super saiyan at all?" A taunting smirk then landed on his lips, feeling his expectations rise.

"It's true that you're both stronger than I am... But I've been waiting for somebody like you guys to come around" he muttered lowly in a dark tone.

Somewhere, close to the Grand Elder's home.

Frieza can be seen in his mobile transportation pod as he soared his way towards the remaining namekian's location. Coming close towards the house on top of the hill, Dende can be seen flying right past him.

The small alien was contemplating he wanted to go after the small namekian, but since he was already close towards the needed location, he decided to ignore him. Landing next to the house, hopping out of his pod, another namekian walks out of the house.

"May I help you?" questioned Nail, feeling evil intent from the smaller alien. "My name is Frieza, and I have a wish that I would like to have granted with the dragon balls" he greeted, not wanting to come off rude.

He then explained that he was able to gather all seven of the dragon balls, but he couldn't get them to work. "I ask that you enlighten me... What must I do to have this wish of mine granted?"

"I must ask you to leave. I cannot help one as evil as yourself" Nail replied with an instance, causing Frieza's expression to falter a bit. "I think it'd be wise for you to be more amiable. After all, your life or death holds no consequences to me..."

The low threat made Nail slowly clenched his fists, seeing if he had to defend himself and the grand elder. "Before you do something, I must tell you this" Frieza let out a questionable hum, but he stood there and listened.

"The grand elder is inside the house, he is the creator of the dragon balls" Frieza took in the words, nodding his head to tell the namekian to continue speaking. "Remember this before you proceed. If you kill the grand elder, the dragon balls will disappear"

The smaller alien pondered for a bit before he turned his gaze towards the house. Without hesitation, two bright red lasers were fired from his eyes, aiming at the roof. Nail watched in shock as Frieza floated to the gaping hole he made on the roof.

"Indeed, it seems that you are telling the truth" he replied before speaking to the older namekian. "Grand elder, I suppose that you have no intentions of telling me either"

The elder replied with a hum, silently telling him that he wasn't going to speak about it as well. "Nail will not be bested as easily as you think" he spoke firmly. "He is nothing like the other you've killed"

The elder turned his gaze towards the younger namekian, speaking telepathically. 'I leave it to you, Nail. Try to buy as much time as you can' Nail gave him a firm nod.

'Yes, grand elder. I understand' he replied as the two turned towards Frieza, feeling his anger boil. "Very well... If you insist on being so obstinate" he threatened before continuing.

"I'll show you how terrifying I, the greatest warrior in the universe, can be!" he exclaims as he turns towards Nail. "You will regret for not speaking clearly to me" he muttered with an angered look in his eyes.

"Let us change locations. I wouldn't want the elder to get caught in the crossfire" Nail insisted, knowing that the elder was nearing his death. "Hoho, I somehow doubt that this battle will become that serious... Very well"

With that, they took flight, quickly somewhere they could fight. Nail hoped he would buy some time for the grand elder. After some time looking around, they both landed in an open area far away from the elder's home.

Nail took off his coat with quickness and began to power up, determined to win this fight. "Oh! That's quite impressive! Your power level jumped to 42,000" he exclaimed, but deep down, he wasn't even close to his level.

"It's true, you stand apart from the other namekians" he lightly praised him, making him even more surprised. "You would make a fine addition to my army. But allow me to give you a better idea of what you're up against"

Nail continued to listen to the smaller aliens' words, wondering why he was taking so long to get ready. "My power level is 530,000. But fret not, I don't plan to fight you at my full capacity" he lightly warned.

A playful idea then popped in his head, making him smile lightly. "I know! I will fight you with only my left arm. That may be somewhat entertaining..." The playful taunt caused Nail to grit his teeth in anger before rushing towards him.

He aimed his hand towards Frieza's neck, but he felt pain when Frieza didn't flinch. "I suppose this is all I could expect from 42,000..." Frieza slowly placed his hand on Nail's arm, watching fear envelope Nails' eyes.

With quickness, he tore off his hand. Nail's screams of anguish and pain echoed in the open area as he collapsed to his knees. "Oh my, that was quite rude of me..." he waited for the namekian to get up.

"I believe it would be best to tell me what I'd like to know before you get yourself killed" he insisted coldly, needing to know the instructions to gain his wish.

Nail didn't say anything as he screamed once more. A few seconds passed as he quickly regenerated a newfound hand, surprising Frieza once more. "My, my, even after being shown the difference in strength between us, you still wish to continue?"
