[NARRATOR] Last time on Dragon Ball Z!

Frieza's elite fighters, the Ginyu Force,

raced across the galaxy toward Planet Namek,

equipped with new scouters to speed

their evil master's search for the Dragon Balls.

Meanwhile, Krillin and Gohan

continued their journey to see Guru.

I guess we can risk picking up the pace a bit.

We should be far enough away from Vegeta now

that he won't be able to sense us.

Yeah, and not only that,

my dad should be getting here any minute now!

He'll need our help!

[KRILLIN] Let's go!

[NARRATOR] Unfortunately for our heroes,

Vegeta was much closer than they realized!

[VEGETA] Ah! I've found them at last!

[NARRATOR] And with six Dragon Balls already in his possession,

the Saiyan Prince was determined

to have the seventh at any cost!

They'll get no mercy from me! They're dead!

[NARRATOR] Now, with Vegeta hot on their trail,

Krillin and Gohan need Guru's help more than ever.

But even if Guru can unlock Gohan's hidden power,

are any of these warriors ready to face the Ginyu Force?

Keep it up, Gohan! We're getting close!

Guru's house should be just ahead!

Right!

[thinking] I don't know...

If Guru can release Gohan's powers,

there's a chance he'll be strong enough

that we can take on Vegeta.

But the more I think about it, I'm not so sure...

[VEGETA yells]

[VEGETA chuckles]

[thinking] That guy is like a bottomless pit...

Somehow, he keeps pulling out more and more power!

[KRILLIN growls]

[KRILLIN thinking] But if we can just get Gohan powered-up

before Goku gets here,

maybe the three of us can beat Vegeta together!

9,999...

[GOKU grunts]

[GOKU] Ten thousand!

Wow! All that, and I'm not even tired!

So much for hundred times gravity!

[GOKU] I can't turn up the machine any higher...

Well, all right, then!

I guess I'm as ready for Planet Namek as I'll ever be!

In that case, it might be a good idea

to get used to normal gravity again...

[alarm beeping]

[GOKU] Huh...?

[beeping continues]

Huh?

Huh...

[GOKU laughs]

I can't believe I've gotten this much stronger!

Incredible! I don't even feel this gravity at all!

It's almost like I'm weightless!

I feel light as a feather!

Watch my speed!

I feel good!

[GOKU laughs]

Just watch me now!

This is great!

I bet I could power up my Kaio-Ken attack

times ten, no problem!

Huh?

[GOKU] A wise man once said,

"The harder you train, then the stronger you smell!"

[GOKU laughs]

That's better. Now, time for something to eat!

Let's see... What am I in the mood for?

Ah! Just what I needed!

What's this doing in here? It's no good...

There! Now that's what I'm looking for!

A sports drink! It's much less filling

and tastes great!

[GOKU snoring]

[VEGETA chuckling]

[thinking] I have them...

They won't be able to hide from me this time.

[KRILLIN] Gohan! There it is!

Dead ahead! On top of that tall peak!

That's Guru's house!

I can't believe we actually made it!

[KRILLIN laughs]

Hold it, Gohan!

I think we got ourselves some company!

[GOHAN whimpers]

It's Vegeta!

I-I know... What do we do?

Gohan...

I'll stay here and try to hold him off for a while.

I want you to go on ahead to Guru's house without me.

But, Krillin...

Don't argue! Just go! Now!

[KRILLIN growls]

[GOHAN whimpers]

Right!

[KRILLIN] Okay. Come on, Vegeta.

[KRILLIN] Guh...

[thinking] How can I compete with that?

Well...

Wh-What do you want, Vegeta? How did you find us?

What do I want? Oh, I'm just here to say hello...

Don't play ignorant with me.

I want the four-star Dragon Ball.

The one I had hidden in the lake.

And I know you've got it.

[KRILLIN] I-I don't know what you're talking about!

[VEGETA] Hmph... Is that so?

Well, we'll just see about that.

Ah... Such great power...

[VEGETA chuckling]

Huh? What's that?

There's a huge power-level coming from that mountain.

So, that's where you were headed.

Is that where you've hidden the Dragon Ball as well?

No! You're wrong!

[KRILLIN] Vegeta! Nooo!

[GURU coughing]

[GURU] I can feel that you have truly amazing hidden powers.

The strongest I've ever felt!

Please! I have to hurry! It's Vegeta! He's right outside!

Are his intentions pure?

[GURU] Hmm.

What is this place?

Hey! Stop right there!

I'm warning you!

Leave now.

Hmph. I don't think so.

[GOHAN panting]

[panting continues]

[GOHAN whimpering]

[screaming]

Ha-ha!

[thinking] Gohan! Guru did it!

That power... There's only one person that could be...

So! You've come to settle the score at last, have you?

Here I am, Kakarot!

Uhhh...

[VEGETA] Huh?

[VEGETA chuckles]

What?!

[VEGETA] You?! But your... Your power level...

What is this place? What have you done?!

[KRILLIN chuckles]

[VEGETA chuckles]

Huh?

[VEGETA laughing]

What? Am I supposed to be scared now,

just because you've gotten a little "power boost"?

It changes nothing!

You're still nowhere near my level.

So go ahead if you want! Attack me!

Your move.

What is it, Guru?

[GURU] Dende, my child...

What's wrong?

Please... You must go and warn the others...

I can sense that there is an

incredibly powerful force approaching our planet...

[GURU coughs]

Are you all right, Guru?

[GURU] Go, Dende. Quickly!

Right!

Hey... Hey! Listen!

Guru just told me there's some kind of powerful force

headed straight for us!

What?

What in the...? Who's this Guru?

Hey! He's right! Something is coming!

Yeah! That power level's huge!

Wait! I know! It's Goku!

I knew he'd be here to save us!

Kakarot?!

[GOHAN] I dunno... Are you sure, Krillin?

It feels like there's more than one...

No! Not them!

[VEGETA] One... Two... Three... Four... Five...

It... It has to be... Damn it all!

Frieza's called in the Ginyu Force!

You! No more time for games!

Give me that Dragon Ball right now!

I... I can't! I don't have it!

Tell me where it is!

Tell me, and I promise no harm will come to you,

or your friends!

But if I don't make my wish

before they get here, we're all dead!

[KRILLIN] What do you think we are? Stupid?

You put him down. Right now, Vegeta.

Listen to me! Don't be a fool!

These are no petty henchman Frieza's called,

it's the Ginyu Force!

Five men each as strong as I am.

Maybe even stronger!

And in a few moments, they'll be here

with their new scouters.

They'll find us and kill us all!

No... I-I don't believe you!

[VEGET] Do you feel that power?!

None of us are strong enough to face that!

We only have one chance.

We have to use the Dragon Balls to make me immortal!

[NAIL] I fear what the Saiyan says may be true.

This is an evil presence that approaches...

Here's the deal: We use the wish on Gohan!

The boy may have power,

but he doesn't have the fighting experience!

It has to be me!

I can't do it! That would mean...

our entire search would be in vain!

But you would still have two more wishes.

[VEGETA growling]

Didn't you know?

The Dragon Balls will grant you three wishes.

Uh... Three? Are you sure about that?

Not... just one?

We're wasting time!

The Ginyu Force will be here any second!

We have to use the Dragon Balls now, before it's too late!

You're not giving the orders here, Vegeta!

Nail, are you absolutely certain

that we'll get three wishes?

Yes.

Let's go, then.

But, you try anything funny

and the deal's off, you got it? Follow me!

[GOHAN] Hey! Wait up!

This is crazy!

Just fly as fast as you can!

So then, have they gone?

[NAIL] Yes. But even if they do get

the Dragon Balls in time,

I don't much like their chances.

Can't you help them?

[GURU] Dende's right.

I think you should join them in this battle.

It might help their chance at victory.

But what about--?

[GURU] Don't worry about me, my son.

I don't plan on leaving this world just yet.

[GURU chuckles]

[NAIL] I will do as you wish.

[FRIEZA giggles]

[FRIEZA] At last, my precious Ginyu Force

has finally arrived. And right on schedule!

[FRIEZA laughs]

[VEGETA] We're running out of time!

The Ginyu Force has landed!

[thinking] Just a little farther...

[BULMA sighs]

I just wish they'd hurry up and come back...

[BULMA screams]

Hey, what's the big idea?!

[KRILLIN] Sorry! No time to explain, Bulma!

I need the Dragon Ball!

[VEGETA] Quickly, now! Follow me to the others!

Hey, hang on a second! Come back!

What's going on?!

Do you have any idea what I went through

for that stupid Dragon Ball?!

You could at least fill me in!

Come on! I'm going nuts here!

Come back here! Youuu...!

Krillin and Vegeta... Ugh!

What the...? What was Krillin doing with Vegeta?!

[FRIEZA chuckling]

[FRIEZA laughing]

[growling]

I'm Recoome!

[hissing]

Burter!

Oh, yeah!

I'm Jeice!

[growling]

[yells]

Guldo!

Captain Ginyu!

Now! You! See! The! Power!

[ALL] Of the Ginyu Force!

[FRIEZA] Uhh...

Well, that's quite an entrance, boys.

[ALL] Heh!

[NARRATOR] With the Ginyu Force by his side,

is Frieza on the verge of taking over the universe?

Or will Vegeta's new alliance with Gohan and Krillin prove

to be a sufficient deterrence?

It's a race for survival, and every second counts!

Can our heroes get to the remaining Dragon Balls

in time to summon the Dragon and make their wish?

There's only one way to find out...

Tune in for the next exciting episode of Dragon Ball Z!
