The Mysterious Warrior from Space

"Raditz should be coming soon..." Kalan stared at the sky. It's has been almost a year since Kalan started teaching Videl. He didn't know the exact date Raditz came to Earth in the story.

"I guess it's best if leave a bit earlier." Kalan decided to disappear before Raditz came, if Piccolo were to rely on him instead of cooperating with Goku to defeat Raditz, then there wouldn't be any meaning for Kalan to wait for Raditz to come.

Kalan told Videl, Yamcha and Tien Shinhan he would be going somewhere far away to do some special training alone. Kalan also told Piccolo the same before dispersing his clone. Because of the difference in strength, Kalan had no trouble hiding from Kami's eyes.

...

*Boom* A spacepod crashed in a rural area, far away from the cities.

*Jii* The hatch opened and a man climbed out of the spacepod.

The man had long spiky hair reaching down to his calves. He wore Frieza Force's battle armor and a scouter. The man had a monkey tail wrapped around his waist, the man was certainly Raditz!

"S-Stop! W-Who are you?!" A farmer pointed his rifle at Raditz.

*Beep Beep* His scouter sounded.

"A battle power of only 5? What a planet!" Raditz ridiculed.

Raditz saw the man standing in front of him, he calmly walked towards the man, step by step.

"S-Stay back! I-I'm warning you!!" The flustered farmer yelled in warning. He had thought a meteorite had hit his farm and came to check the crater, never had he expected a man to walk out of the crater.

"Waaah!!" The farmer closed his eyes and pressed the trigger.

*Bang* A bullet flew toward Raditz' face.

*Dong* Raditz calmly grabbed the flying bullet, with a flick of his fingers, he sent the bullet back toward the farmer. The bullet hit him clearly in the head, blood spurted out as the man fell down dead.

"Hmph, a planet of weaklings." Raditz said arrogantly.

*Beep* His scouter sounded.

"Someone strong is close by, distance 4880... Is it Kakarot!?" Raditz turned his head to the direction the scouter pointed to.

Raditz flew toward the wasteland in the distance.

"What!? Someone powerful is quickly approaching!" Piccolo sensed a strong Ki moving quickly towards him. He turned his head toward that direction in alarm.

"So powerful! Is it Son Goku?!" Piccolo could only imagine his enemy, Goku could threaten him.

"No! It's too strong!" The closer Raditz came, the more alarmed Piccolo was. Raditz Ki was much stronger than he had expected, so much he lost all hopes in fighting against him.

*Tok* Raditz landed in front of Piccolo.

"Tch, you're not Kakarot." Raditz had thought he found Goku, unfortunately he had flown here for nothing.

"Who are you? What do you want?" Piccolo noticed Raditz' tail, the only ones he had ever seen with monkey tails were Kalan and Goku.

"Not with the likes of you." Raditz said haughtily.

"Then why are you here?" Piccolo clearly did not like the tone Raditz spoke to him with, but there was nothing he could do with the huge Ki of his enemy.

"Quite audacious, hehehe..." Raditz pressed the button on his scouter.

*Bibibip*

"A battle power of 733, quite high for someone on this backwater place, no wonder you're so cocky." Raditz looked down on Piccolo.

"What!?" Piccolo stared at Raditz' scouter in shock. He had measured his battle power once in Kalan's dojo and knew his battle power was over 700 with his weighted clothes on.

"Rejoice, I'll allow you to see what real strength is." Raditz showed a wicked smile.

Piccolo sweated bullets, Raditz' unrestrained Ki pressured him as he felt the hostility toward him.

"Hehehe." Raditz lifted his arm with his palm facing Piccolo.

*Beep Beep Beep* Suddenly, Raditz' scouter sounded.

"An even greater power is nearby!" Raditz turned his head to stare in the distance.

"There it is, distance... 12909." Raditz flew up and checked his scouter.

"The battle power is the highest on this planet, it has to be Kakarot's!" Raditz believed Goku as a Saiyan would be the strongest in this weak planet.

"Kakarot! Have you lost your pride? The pride of a Saiyan warrior!" Raditz chased after the target.

"Huff! Unbelievable! I was frozen in fear... Is he stronger than teacher...?" Piccolo dropped down on his knees, his forehead filled with sweat. Kalan had never shown his power to Piccolo. Raditz' unrestrainedly released Ki was the strongest energy he had ever felt in his whole life.

Because Piccolo never asked about the tail, so he had no idea what the tail represented. But what he did believe now was that, each and every person with a monkey tail seemed to all be incredibly strong.

...

Goku rode on his Flying Nimbus with Gohan, they could see the Kame house in front of their eyes.

Goku jumped down the cloud with Gohan in his embrace.

"Hey!" Goku waved.

"Goku!" Bulma and Krillin greeted him. Master Roshi was slowly walking out of the door.

"Eh?! A tail? Is that child perhaps... yours?!" Bulma asked shocked.

Goku introduced Gohan to his friends.

"So, is he strong like you?" Krillin asked curiously, he always felt Goku was too strong for a kid when they were young.

"Yep! Kalan also took Gohan in as his student." Goku said carelessly.

"My god! He's so lucky!" Krillin felt envious. He felt like he was the only one of their group that was falling behind.

"Chi Chi had originally wanted him to study since the world is now at peace and all. She was complaining about getting a decent job, but thankfully Kalan offered me to instruct in his dojo. Now, Chi Chi happily agreed to train Gohan into the strongest martial artist!" Goku smiled, Chi Chi was the one doing bills,in the past, she always complained about their non-existent income and wanted Goku to get a job as their money were running low. She couldn't always ask her father, the Ox King to help them out, now that they had their own family.

"Hmph, you guys only think about martial arts all day!" Bulma snorted.

Suddenly, Goku's body jerked as he quickly turned around and stared toward the distance.

"What's the matter, Goku?" Krillin asked confused.

"Someone's coming...! He's incredibly strong!" Goku had a seriously look as sweat perspired on his forehead.

"It better not be Kalan!" Bulma frowned.

"Such an incredible strength! It might be just as strong or even stronger than Kalan's. His aura is too violent, it's not Kalan." Goku looked anxious.

"What!? Just as strong as Kalan?!" Krillin was alarmed. Nowadays, Kalan was worshiped as the strongest man in the world. Who could be as strong as him or even stronger?

They could see a small dot quickly grow larger and soon enough, he landed in front of them.

"So we finally meet. You've already grown up, but I can still recognize you with a single glance. You look just like our father." Raditz said.
