01x13 - This is the Kaioken! The Critical Battle of Goku vs. Vegeta" / "The Power of the Kaio-Ken! Goku vs. Vegeta!

Post by bunniefuu »

Having returned, Son Goku overpowers Nappa!

Impossible! That was my greatest technique!

That's enough!

You're getting us nowhere!
I'll take care of him!

What?!

You're pathetic!

Imagine, me, actually having
to take action against Kakarrot!

Dokkan Dokkan We're in luck

Dokkan Dokkan Paradise

The Genki Dama bursts away

Go Go Let's do it

There's a wriggling, mysterious energy

I won't hold back, just you watch

I'll protect you with my life

Turn your courage to love into strength

We'll overcome crises with carry-through spirit

The tougher your opponent is,
the greater the excitement

Dokkan Dokkan We're in luck

Dokkan Dokkan Now's our chance

Whooshing along on the lucky wind

Dokkan Dokkan We're in luck

Dokkan Dokkan Tomorrow, as well

Your soul already knows the answer

Dragon Soul!

"This is the Kaio-ken!!
The Critical Battle of Goku vs. Vegeta."

D-Damn.

T-To think that I'd have to turn
over your execution to Vegeta.

Orders are orders. I'll let
Vegeta take care of you.

But I can't let it end with
me withdrawing like this.

Crap! The other two!

It's no use! I won't make it in time!

Kaio-ken!!

What?!

Damn...!

He ain't able to fight anymore.

Take him, and get yourselves
off of Earth, right now.

W-What was that just now?

For a moment, his speed
and power shot up sharply!

G-Goku, how did you do that?

Is that a technique you learned
from that Kaio-sama guy?

Yeah. it's called " Kaio-ken."

By controlling all the Ki in your body,
you amplify it momentarily.

If you do it right, your power,
speed, destructive force,

and defensive force all
multiply many times over.

T-That's awesome! As strong as you've become,

you can still become many
times stronger than even that?

--Yeah.
--Goku, you're such a tease!

This is no time to be playing around, right?

If you had that up your sleeve,
you should have used it from the start.

Sorry, I couldn't do that.

If I don't control it while
throttling my Kijust right,

I could really mess myself up.

Basically...

Just to press the point, at your level,

you cannot use the Kaio-ken too heavily.

If your control slips up,
you'll end up damaging your body.

Keep your power down to double,
at the most. Understood?

Performing a Kaio-ken beyond that
will put too great a strain on your body.

Put another way, your body won't
be able to keep up with the Kaio-ken,

and it will end up backfiring on you.

Mm-hmm, I got it.

And that's the story.

O-Oh...

V-Vegeta... h-help me...

T-Thanks...

Hmph, not at all.

W-What are you--

Vegeta! Vegeta!!

I have no need for a Saiyan who can't move!

W-What a Ki!

F-Father!

W-What's going on?!

Die!

V-Vegeta!!

W-W-What a monster!
He even k*lled his own buddy!

Gohan, Kuririn,

the two of you go on back to
the Kame House, right now.

R-Right.

Gohan, you heard him. Hurry, let's go.

B-But...

Gohan, he's too much for us.

We won't be of any help
if we stick around here.

And our being here will just distract Goku,

and make him worry over us.

Really, Father?

Sorry about that.

It looks like his strength
is greater than I thought.

O-Okay, I understand.

Oh, yeah. Goku, as long as you're fighting,

could you do it in another location?

It wouldn't do to let everyone's
bodies here get all messed up,

once we bring them back to life again.

Bring them back to life?

Piccolo is dead, so Kami-sama is dead, too.

The Dragon Balls are now gone forever.

I hate to say it, but they ain't
ever coming back to life.

Yeah, I know that.

K-Kuririn-san, by any chance...

W-What?

I'll explain it all to you later.

That is, if you're able to beat him, Goku.

If I can beat him, huh? Yeah.

I have to beat him, at any rate,

no matter what.

What are you waiting for?

What happened to all that
enthusiasm you had a moment ago?

Have you lost your nerve and
decided to huddle up and run away?

Okay then, well, I guess I'll
change locations, and do my best.

In any case, let me handle this.

Goku, sorry about always having
to leave our fate up to you alone.

Don't you dare go dying now, my good friend.

Yeah.

Father...

Gohan...

...after Daddy comes back home alive,

let's go fishing together or something, okay?

Okay!

It looks like you realize that
there's no use in running away.

We're going to change our battle location.

Suit yourself. it will all turn out the same.

Father...

I should have known as much.

He's following with confidence to spare.

Gohan...

Hey, Gohan!

--Yes?
--Let's hurry back to the Kame House.

Mm-hmm.

Let's stop worrying. We've turned
over the fate of the Earth to him.

It'll be all right, Gohan.
Goku is sure to take care of him.

Now, let's go. Hurry back and show
your mother that you're all right.

Right!

Here should be all right. There ain't
any people or animals around.

I see...

So this is the place you've
chosen to be your grave, is it?

You should rejoice.

After all, a lower-class warrior like you

is going to get toyed around
with by a super-elite.

Soon after Saiyans are born, their
capabilities as soldiers are tested.

The scum whose ratings are low

are then sent to worlds without
tough opponents, like you were.

In other words...

...you were an outcast!

And as a result, I was able
to come here to Earth.

I should be grateful. Besides...

...maybe even an outcast can surpass an elite

if he tries desperately enough.

That's a pretty good joke.

Well then, let me show you a wall

that you will never be able
to get over with effort alone!

What's the matter, Kakarrot?!
You can do better than that, can't you?!

You were giving more than
this when you beat Nappa!

Let me see it!

Impressive. He ain't even
taking this seriously yet,

but his speed and technique
are already beyond mine.

Show me, unless you've already
used up all your strength.

All right! I'll show you!

Kaio-ken!!

If that was the limit of what you've got,

I'm going to be very disappointed.

What a brute this guy is...

But then...

...for as much trouble as I'm in
right now, I'm starting to get excited.

He's laughing? Has he given
up hope, and turned defiant?

Or does he know he is capable of
raising his battle power even higher?

Well?! Are you done already?!

That appears to be all you've got.

Well then, allow me to show
you something before you die...

The overwhelming power
of a super-elite Saiyan!

That disagreeable grin of yours is
going to be wiped away soon enough.

What a Ki! it's as if the
entire Earth is trembling!

It's a full-on typhoon!

The air has stopped quivering.

A-All of the clouds have been blown away.

It's over, Kakarrot.

You fool! Behind you!

Kaio-ken, times two!!

All right, nicely dodged.

I made that one easy for you to dodge.

It wouldn't be any fun if you died too easily.

Damn, what power and speed he has!

Not even my times-two Kaio-ken
can keep up with him.

Ain't much else I can do, huh?

This may wreck my body,
but it's better than dying.

I ain't got any choice but to raise
my Kaio-ken to triple-strength.

I've already come so close,

so there's no point in not checkin'
them out, and what do I see?

That punk and Goku're both so strong,

it's like I'm havin' a nightmare.

Now then, once I raise my
Kaio-ken to times-three,

I wonder how long my body
will be able to hold out.

What's the matter, Kakarrot? Come and get me!

Either way, I've got no choice but to do it.

The way things are going,
there ain't any way I can win.

Don't you have anything else up your sleeve?

Looks like you messed with the wrong guy.

Even among the other Saiyans,
I was the most powerful man around.

No matter how much you may have trained,

you're still just an outcast!

You've only put off the time of
your defeat by a few moments.

This ain't good.

That Saiyan bastard has him
completely overpowered.

Maybe I'd better get outta here while I can.

Uh-huh, I oughtta beat it.

It don't do no good for me to be here, nope.

May my body withstand this!
Times-three Kaio-ken!!

N-No! You can't exceed
double-strength, Son Goku!

Then again, as it stands,
there's definitely no way he can win.

Imagine, that guy being so strong...

This battle... may be hopeless.

W-What's wrong?

H-Has something happened?

It's probably Son-kun,
but this battle power reading

I-Is rising like crazy!

--Goku!
--Goku-sa!

, ... , ... , ...

O-Oh, no...

W-What?!

Goku uses the forbidden triple Kaio-ken.

Will his body be able to
withstand this ultra-power?

Yeah! Break! Care! Break! As hard as you can

Fly away into the boundless skies

We'll hitch a ride on the jet stream,

and zip away to wherever we want

Being a daredevil is the best

Let's go tip-top! All right?

This eye-opening blue Earth of ours

is our irreplaceable world,
and we're not giving it up

Blast off a Kamehame-Ha

You were born

to protect the world in these uncertain times

Yeah! Break! Care! Break! As hard as you can

Go at it full power

Hope is my w*apon,

so believe in the future

Heya! I'm Goku!

My body's been worn ragged
from using this triple Kaio-ken.

How can your battle power be
greater than mine?! I won't have it!

I'll have to finish this fight
with a Genki Dama.

I'm going to settle this, right now, Vegeta!

That's what I was going to say!

I may hate how ugly it is,
but it's time for the big g*ns!

Next time on Dragon Ball Z Kai,

"The Impact of the Kamehame-Ha!
Vegeta's Tenacious Transformation."

I'm going to fight too, Father!
