30. Eight fights for Namek




Takori made a fighting ring appear. He was pretty big. In fact, it was just a plain stretching for miles in all possible directions. However, there was a marker in each direction that should show the end of the battlefield. Takori also made a large house appear and a small tribune with eight seats.


Takori: "Everyone who does not fight goes into the house. You can watch from there. The eight fighters go to the stands and the ninth fighter also goes into the house, but is not allowed to watch!"


Son Goku: "What's the point?"


Takori: "You will notice that. So take your seats now!"


Chichi, Videl, Bulma, Bra and Marron went into the house and sat in front of a window from which they could see the fighting. Son-Goku also went into the house, but could not go into the room where the others were sitting. The fighters sat in their stands.

Takori: "First I'll send my fighter into the ring and then we'll play about which of you fights."


Vegeta: "And what should this game look like?"


Takori: "You draw tickets. In this box there are seven white balls and one black ball. There are fewer and fewer white balls when it is the turn of the next fighters. Logically, whoever gets the black ball has to fight!"


Vegeta: "Is there anything else we should know?"


Takori: "Well, ... he who gives up, is knocked out, leaves the area marked by me or dies."


Mister Satan: "WHAT? D ... D ... He's dying? ... Oh my god!"


Kuririn: "Until death ... I think that's a bit exaggerated!"


Gohan: "It doesn't have to get that far! We can give up at any time!"


C18: "But I don't think that each of us will just give up if there is no other way."


Takori: "So ... here is my first fighter!"

A being now appeared in front of the stands. His body seemed to be made of glass because it was almost transparent! He was very muscular and seemed combative.


Takori: "This is Tomei no. He will fight first. Now each of you draws a ball. The box has eight sides, which means that you all draw a ball at the same time, so that it becomes a little more exciting."


Everyone went to the box and reached into the eight openings in the box. Each of them grabbed a ball and when Takori gave the signal, they all pulled the ball out at the same time.


Pan: "Phew! At least not the first! Have fun Uncle!"


Son-Goten: "It's easy for you to talk! Why am I allowed to start ?!"


Takori: "The rest of you, please get back to your seats! Clear the ring for the first fight!"


Son-Goths: "Wish me luck!"


Pan: "Just think of Baresu, then you win!"


Son-Goths: "But only if we win and she is brought back to life ..."

Tomei no: "Quiet in the cheap seats! Come on! Let's get it over with!"


Tomei no immediately took the first stroke and Son-Goten, who was quite surprised, was only just able to avoid it. Tomei no gave him no opportunity to transform into a Super Saiya-jin. Son-Goten could hardly follow his opponent because he kept appearing and attacking him. That went on for a while and Son-Goten was not only clearly weakened but also desperate.


Son-Goten: "Damn it! I can't take it much longer! He doesn't even give me a few seconds to transform into a Super Saiya-jin ... Shit! What should I do !? But !." .. Takori said something about speed, strength and reason! Maybe he meant that his fighters are not perfect ... surely he wanted to draw our attention to that! So ... he's damn fast and also relatively strong .. . I have to outsmart him! "


Though his thoughts had been disturbed by Tomeio's attacks, he had found the right solution.But now he needed an idea to fool him.


Son-Goten: "All right! Let's try it! SUNLIGHTNING!"


As expected, a light suddenly blinded Tomei no and he could no longer see anything. Now finally Son-Goten had the chance to transform into a Super Saiya-jin. Tomei no did not have the ability to feel the aura of his opponent and therefore had to wait so long until he could see again and that was his undoing! Son-Goten attacked him immediately and Tomei no could hardly defend himself. Even when he could see well again, he was not up to the strength of a Super Saiya-jin, so a short time later he found himself outside the ring and thus the first winner was certain: Son-Goten!


Trunks: "Great! Now we only need to win four out of seven fights to ..."


Vegeta: "Better not be too early! Son-Goten would have almost lost if he hadn't seen through Tomei no!"

Takori: "Hmmm ... that means 1-0 for you! Well, ... I hope you don't get reckless! Here comes my second fighter! His name is: Tan."


Trunks: "Tan? And where is he?"


Takori: "He's already there ... now to your fighter!"


Like the first time, everyone drew a ball and this time Kuririn was hit.


Kuririn: "Oh no, ... already ..."


Takori: "Now please go into the ring!"


Kuririn went into the ring and waited for his opponent, who was still not in sight. There was nothing and no one to be seen in the ring, except for a puddle that was reddish in color.


Suddenly there was bubbling in the puddle and Kuririn, who had noticed it, went to the puddle and stared in amazement. It bubbled more and more and suddenly Kuririn stared at two eyes from the puddle. First he got a bump and jumped back a few meters. The eyes, including the reddish liquid, rose and stopped in the air.

Tan: "Blub ... blub ... blub ..."


Kuririn: "Blub? ... blub? ... blub? ..."


Somehow it all seemed a bit Spanish to Kuririn and as the blub, blub, blub got louder and louder, he noticed that he was suddenly surrounded by innumerable tans.


Kuririn: "Hey! ... I thought ... just an opponent ...?"


Takori: "This is an opponent who has broken up into many small ones. Clear the ring!"


Off we went. The little tans rushed towards him and Kuririn was frozen for a moment until he finally looked reality in the eye again. He dodged and fired energy attacks at the tans. All shots were hits and Kuririn had finally shot them all, but of course the Tans were far from defeated. The remains of them reunited and so all of the tans were regenerated.


The Tans made no move to attack Kuririn. They all went to one place and united in a huge tan.

Kuririn: "Oh shit!"


Kuririn's face was clearly asleep because this monster was anything but small and cute. Tan slowly approached Kuririn, who kept walking back. On and on, he went back until, without realizing it, he had reached the edge of the arena. He was too careless and when he hadn't paid attention to Tan for a short time, he was pushed out of the ring by him.


Takori: "That's what I meant with careless! You were impressed by his size, but you didn't notice that his fighting strength is very low! Now it's 1: 1! ... So, continue with the program!"


Trunks had to fight next and his opponent was Kyo, a giant who stood in the ring with his club and picked his nose all the time.


Trunks: "Well Hallelujah! Fortunately an easy opponent!"


Takori: "Ring free!"


Trunks attacked immediately. He flew towards the troll and swung out to strike! ... But the giant was faster. Before Trunks could attack him, the giant swung his club back to strike and hit Trunks right on the head.The first went to the ground and moaned about the bump.


Trunks: "Auauauauauauau ... wait a minute!"


Trunks lashed out again, but again the giant was faster and now Trunks already had two bumps. But he had also noticed that this giant's brain couldn't be bigger than a pea. If Trunks didn't attack, the giant didn't attack, but kept picking his nose.


Trunks has now turned into a Super Saiya-jin because he came up with a plan. He flew towards the giant and changed direction shortly before him. He did it so long and so fast that the giant began to stumble and went to the ground, where he lay confused and did not get up again.


Takori: "Well done! 2: 1 for you. The next fight will not be that easy by far! Now please draw the balls again!"


In the next fight, C18 fought. Her opponent was Aoi, a strange blue creature with an innumerable number of arms. The fight started and both immediately started fighting.They seemed almost equally strong, but Aoi clearly had a small advantage with his many arms. The fight lasted a long time, but in the end Aoi was ahead and C18 was pushed out of the ring and lost. It was easy to understand why she was annoyed about it.


Takori: "Now we're tied again! 2: 2! Now we're going to take a break. You can eat something and relax. Those who have already fought can go to the stands with the others."


Pan: "Tell me, what is my grandfather doing right now?"


Takori: "He's waiting in a room and he's probably having his stomach full right now!"


And so it was. Son Goku was busy eating. The table was filled with empty plates and it didn't look like it was already full.


Gohan, Vegeta, Goten, Pan and Trunks had just filled their stomachs full and now Gohan, Pan, Vegeta and Mister Satan left

back to the arena. The rest stayed in the stands with the others.


In the fifth selection round, Gohan drew the black ball. His opponent was really a weird guy. His name was Marui, he was small and round and had an abnormal number of eyes, so he could see every single movement of his opponent. He was also incredibly fast and could avoid any attack by Gohan. Marui didn't attack, just dodged. It was starting to seem strange to Gohan.


After a long fight, Marui grabbed the first time and he hit Gohan in the stomach. Everyone was worried that this fight would be lost, but shortly after the attack, Gohan laughed at Marui's blow.
