Original subtitles

Last time on Dragon Ball Z Kai...

Sick of his cohort's incompetence,

Vegeta removed Nappa from the battlefield...

Then, as the fight between Goku and Vegeta began...

Goku quickly realized,

his only hope of matching his opponent's unbelievable power,

was to push his body to its limit.

Will it pay off?

Body, don't fail me now! Kaio-ken times three!

An All-Out Kamehame-Ha!

Vegeta's Terrible Transformation!

Kaio-ken... Times... Three!

Whoa... Awesome...

Take that!

Darn you...!

Wretched little...

How is this happening?

Crazy... Goku might just stand a chance of winnin' after all!

I refuse to believe this!

It's not possible for Kakarot's power level to exceed my own!

Are you kidding me?

Man, he's tough...

So much for trying to settle this quickly.

Just ignore the pain...

I belong to the upper echelon of the most elite

warrior class the universe has ever seen!

I will not be bested!

Certainly not by some low-born amateur like you!

I am the greatest warrior who has ever lived!

Using the Three-times Kaio-ken

really does a number on my body...

I don't think I can keep this up.

If this drags out for too much longer, I'm done for.

Blood... My noble blood spilled

by the sheer luck of such... such trash...

No, no, I will not allow this to stand!

I cannot allow this to stand!

Your insolence just cost you this world!

I'll blow it all to pieces

and there's nothing you can do to stop me!

He's gonna what?

Try to dodge this, if you can...

You might manage to save yourself,

but your precious Earth is doomed!

He's got me...! What can I do?

I've gotta risk it!

A Three-times Kaio-ken!

Kamehame-Ha!

Kaaaaaa...! Meeeeee...!

Haaaaaaa...!

It's hopeless.

There's no way you can stop my Gallic Gun!

Meeeee...!

Prepare to join this filthy orb in oblivion!

Haaaaaaaaa!

Impossible...! His blast is exactly like my Gallic Gun!

Kaio-ken... Times four!

Ahh...! No!

What the hell? Oh man... He...

He did it!

He actually did it! Ha Ha!

Goku, you magnificent bastard...

Huh...?

Yajirobe, what in the world are you doin' out here?

Well, uh... Someone had to keep an eye on you.

Strong as you are,

you almost got your butt handed to you a couple of times, huh?

I guess.

Yeah... But hey... way to launch that alien dude into orbit.

I knew you'd come through in the end... Nice one!

What happened? I barely touched you.

I may have pushed my body a bit past its limit.

Well I guess I'm not surprised. You were on fire...

Listen to me... You gotta get out of here.

It's not safe yet...

What are you talkin' about?

Uh...! You mean...

He's still out there somewhere.

No way that was all it's gonna take

to finish a guy like that off.

Yeah, who cares...? Let him come back if he wants.

I mean, you'll just blow him away again, right?

Well... Not necessarily... My body's pretty worn out.

That might have been all I had in me...

You don't say, huh... Uh, well, uh...

Oh, look at the time. I've gotta go...

Don't worry, though; I'll be here in spirit!

No!

No low class bottom-feeder can surpass me in strength!

It's unthinkable!

I am not just a Saiyan;

I am the culmination of everything superior

in the Saiyan race!

As much as I hate that's it come to this,

it seems I'm left with no choice...

I'll transform to a Great Ape and grind him to a pulp!

We'll see how cocky he is once he witnesses

the full extent of my power.

Fortunately, I planned our arrival

to coincide with the full moon,

but that was so we could wipe out

the inhabitants of this planet quickly.

I never imagined I'd have to transform

to defeat a single opponent...

Curse that Kakarot!

Wait a minute... Where is the full moon?

I should be able to see it now.

Search all you want;

there won't be a full moon out tonight.

Or ever again, for that matter.

Piccolo suspected you'd try something like this

and took steps to prevent that from happening

long before you got there.

Still, even in his normal form,

that Saiyan is more than a match for Goku...

But he has been weakened by the battle...

If Goku can muster up the strength for one all out attack;

he might still have a chance...

Wait! Of course! The Spirit Bomb!

Hit him with the Spirit Bomb, Goku, and you can't lose!

I don't like this. What's he doing up there?

Why won't he come down and fight?

This can't be happening! It's gone!

The stupid thing is gone!

How could an entire moon just up and disappear?

Bastard! The conniving little weakling knew what I had in mind

and took care to stack the odds in his favor

before the fighting even began!

So be it!

What I'll have to do might reduce my power level a bit,

but at this point, it's the only way.

Ha! And I think the look on his face

should more than make up for it...

It's about time he came back down...

The only way to take him now is with a Spirit Bomb...

I'm just wondering if I can stay focused long enough...?

Kakarot!

Rather clever of you...

blasting the moon right out of the sky;

but I'm afraid it was all for nothing!

What? Why would I do that?

Fine. Go ahead and play dumb...

But I'm curious... Do you even know why it is,

we Saiyans transform when we see a full moon?

Wait... We do what?

The moon appears lit only because

it reflects the light of the sun...

But when the sunlight is bounced from the lunar surface,

it causes a slight shift in the wavelength,

creating what we Saiyans know as a Blutz wave.

And when the moon is full,

their intensity is over seventeen million zenoes.

Uh, I'm afraid you lost me there...

Once seventeen million zenoes are absorbed

by the Saiyan retina, our bodies respond to

a biochemical reaction produced in the tail...

and we transform.

Among the elite of our race,

there are those capable of actually producing a satellite

with the emission of zenoes necessary to effect the change.

And as luck would have it, I am just such an elite.

Observe when my power ball mixes with

the oxygen in this atmosphere!

Sorry to have given you false hope, Kakarot.

This nonsense should've been over by now.

Let this be a lesson to all low class punks like yourself

who dare challenge their superiors on the battlefield!

When that power ball thing of his appeared,

his energy dropped...

Why would he risk a move like that?

What is he planning to do?

Heh, Ha!

He wha...?

Burst open and mix!

Wha... What is that? What have you done?

No, he didn't...

He... He did...! He created a moon!

Boy, would that long lost tail of yours

ever come in handy right about now!

Oh Goku, it's all over now.

Huh...?

What the heck was that?

Hey... See that?

Wait... It's hovering over where we just came from, isn't it?

What the...? It's so bright.

No... This isn't real!

Whoa... Do you feel that power?

But that could be good...

I mean it could be Dad's power, right?

No... Sorry...

There's no mistakin' where that energy's coming from.

It's crazy.

That guy's strength is totally off the charts.

What's goin' on down there?

My... dad is...

Hey!

I... I have to go back.

Uhh...

He needs me.

But... He told us to...

He told us to get outta there!

Look, I can't explain it,

but I just know that Dad's in danger...

If I don't help him, something terrible's gonna happen!

Oh, c'mon, man. Heh...

This is Goku we're talkin' about here.

I mean the guy eats danger for breakfast, right?

Besides, how could a couple of runts like us

help out someone as powerful as your dad?

Yeah... You're probably right, but...

So what? I have to go back!

That's all there is to it!

Hey, wait...!

Hold up! Wait for me!

So, then... What do you think?

Rather impressive, isn't it?

What the heck's going on here?

So... He's like... like some kinda ape monster?

How 'bout I let you in on a little secret?

When I adopt the form of a Great Ape,

my strength increases tenfold!

Now, Goku, you know very well

the giant gorilla monster lurks about during the full moon...

You have to stay indoors tonight.

Sound asleep if you can...

Well... Not to worry, my boy.

We can fix it so this little nuisance of yours

never grows back.

I'll warn you, it might sting a bit...

So that's why... It all makes sense now.

But if... if it's true...

If I really am like this guy...

Then... The monster that stomped my Grandpa Gohan to death

and smashed up the tournament grounds all those years ago...

That... That was me, wasn't it?

I owe it to you, Grandpa.

I owe it to you and everybody else to take this guy down

no matter how strong he is; even if it kills me...

And if I see you in the next world,

I'll make it a point of saying

I'm sorry for all the horrible things I must've done...

Alright Vegeta... Let's finish this!

I can't beat you when you're in that form...

But maybe... a Spirit Bomb can!

Dad, I'm coming!

Heh... Yeah Goku... He's definitely your son.

Huh...?

Ah...!

K-Kaio-ken!

Aw, what's the matter?

Come on! Am I too fast for you?

Oh come now, Kakarot... You can do better than that.

There's nothing I can do. He's just too quick for me.

Big as he is, the guy moves like a rabbit.

Not even a Kaio-ken times five would work.

And with speed like that,

I don't have time to make a Spirit Bomb!

Ha!

Too shy to make your move, huh?

Well then, guess I'll come to you!

The situation is desperate.

Now that Vegeta has taken the form of a Great Ape,

Goku's only hope is the Spirit Bomb.

Can he buy himself the time he needs?

Come on... I only need ten lousy seconds!

Give me ten seconds to concentrate!

Hey it's me, Goku!

Oh, man... I've gathered enough energy from Earth

to make a Spirit Bomb,

but Vegeta's attack was just too fast!

I don't know if I'll be able to...

You should know by now that it won't work...

not before I crush you with my bare hands!

Stop it! Put my dad down right now!

You little brat!

I'll teach you to go after my tail!

Next time on Dragon Ball Z Kai!

I will defeat you!

Goku on the Ropes!

Pin Your Hopes on the Spirit Bomb!
