Manga Summaries DBZ Chapter 56: Goku Returns! Again! Kuririn, Gohan, and Bulma hide in a cave as Freeza and his men fly by. Kuririn gets Bulma to confirm what he sensed: that Freeza and his men already have four of the dragonballs. Gohan and Kuririn talk about the little guy of the group who has far more power than Vegeta does. Bulma sees on the radar that they are heading for another Dragonball, which is in an area where Kuririn and Gohan sensed a Namek village. Kuririn changes into his Kame uniform and Gohan leaves his backpack in the cave with Bulma, who tells them that she will stay there in a Capsule House. Kuririn tells Gohan to suppress his chi and they head off to where Freeza and his men went (to watch what is going to happen). Meanwhile, Kame Sen'nin brings Goku the news about Vegeta being on Planet Namek, along with someone who is even stronger. Yajirobei shows up with seven senszu and feeds one to Goku. Goku immediately recovers and changes into his Kaio uniform. Then he takes the remaining six senszu and tells everyone he will go to Namek since he had Dr. Briefs work on a spaceship from the saiyajin space pod he came to Earth in as an infant. Goku leaps out of the window and rides Kinto'Un to Bulma's house. DBZ Chapter 57: Son Goku's Spaceship Goku arrives at Bulma's house and meets up with Bulma's mom, who tells him that she saw Dr. Briefs working on it but maybe they should take a look. She takes him to it and Dr. Briefs tells Goku it is almost finished and to come inside and have a look around. Goku wonders how it got so big and Dr. Briefs tells him he had to rebuild just about the whole thing. He shows Goku the artificial gravity generator and warns him about using too much gravity. Goku tells him he will not be able to beat the saiyajin unless he trains under 100G. Dr. Briefs tells him that it can fly and all he has to do is press the switch and he will get to Namek in six days. He then shows Goku where the kitchen, bedroom, bath, and toilet are. Goku asks what isn't finished and Dr. Briefs tells him he can't figure out where to put the stereo speakers. Goku tells him he doesn't care about the stereo because he wants to take off right now. Dr. Briefs asks what can be more important than the stereo and Goku tells him that his son and Dr. Briefs's daughter are in trouble and he needs to go help them out. Goku immediately takes off after Dr. Briefs teaches him how to fly it, before Pu'ar and Oolong are able to meet up with him. Goku immediately starts training under 20G, since he trained under 10G at Kaio-sama's planet. Meanwhile, Kuririn and Gohan decide to suppress their chi even more by walkind the rest of the way, and hide behind a cliff. They see that the Namekian buildings look just like their spaceship. They also see the three strongest: Zarbon, Dadoria, and Freeza. They notice the size of the dragonballs that Freeza's men are carrying and Dadoria almost spots them but they duck just in time. Some of Freeza's men force some Namekians out of a building. DBZ Chapter 58: Namekian Fear Kuririn wonders what they're going to do with the Namekians and Gohan asks him if they are saiyajins. Kuririn tells him they aren't, since the only saiyajins are Vegeta, Goku, and Gohan. Kuririn remembers that Raditz told them about how saiyajins exterminate the natives of hospitable planets and sell them to aliens and maybe the guys with the Namekian Dragonballs are in on that. The Namekians are suprised to see how many Dragonballs that Freeza has collected. Freeza asks them where the others are, to which they are silent. Freeza tells them that he will kill them if they are silent and the oldest Namek speaks in Namekian. Freeza tells him that he knows that they can speak their language as well. The Elder Namek tells him that the others are working in the field while the elderly and the children stay behind. Freeza asks where the other dragonball is and the Elder says they don't have anything like that. Freeza talks to Dadoria about how they were told by the second Namek they had killed that the dragonballs will only be given to great heroes. Freeza talks about how he was stubborn so they killed another Namekian to get him talking. Then he goes on to explain that they were told that there is a Great Elder of Namek who delegated 7 other elders, all dispersed over Namek with a Dragonball each. In order to get each of the seven Dragonballs you must have a contest of wits or strength or explain the reason for your wish and only after deemed worthy by each of the seven elders can you possess them all. Freeza says that he tried to do as he said but he would never give a dragonball to him so he killed him, which made it quite troublesome to locate the first ball. The three Dragonballs after that were much easier to acquire, Freeza says. Then, the Namekians call him a liar because they know that the elders would never give the Dragonballs to him. Freeza tells him 'they were quick to oblige when we did this', and tells Zarbon to demonstrate. Zarbon appears above a Namekian and kicks him in the face. Then, another Namek shoots a blast at Zarbon, who dodges, and the blast hits one of Freeza's henchmen. Zarbon jumps in the air and blasts the Namek who just shot the blast and lands, catching the dragonball. The Elder asks Freeza what he wants the Dragonballs for, and Freeza explains his wish is for eternal life for himself. Kuririn realizes that that is the same wish that Vegeta wants, so maybe Vegeta isn't with him on it. The Elder tells him he would rather die than give Freeza the Dragonball then, and Freeza tells him that maybe he will when faced with the deaths of his children. Dadoria then detects combat power and three Namekians head their way. DBZ Chapter 59: Showdown! The three Namekian warriors land and see that the rumors of dragonball thieves raiding their villages is true. Freeza has Dadoria check his scouter to see what their combat power is. Dadoria reports each of their combat powers to be approximately 1000. The village elder notices that Freeza's men were able to find their villages with their chi readers. Kuririn and Gohan know that the Namekian warriors are suppressing their chi. Freeza's weaker henchmen attack the three Namekian warriors, who, in turn, charge up and easily trash the henchmen. Zarbon tells Dadoria that there's no way they have 1000 powers, and Dadoria's scouter now reads the Namekian warriors to be at levels of 3000. Meanwhile, the village elder looks about to see that there are only three scouters left unbroken, including Dadoria's. Dadoria gets ready to do battle after getting permission from Freeza to kill the three Namekian warriors. The village elder then destroys Dadoria's scouter, flies up in the air, and destroys the other two. Zarbon realizes he was after the scouters and Dadoria becomes enraged. DBZ Chapter 60: Ten Seconds of Death It dawns on Kuririn that Freeza and his henchmen didn't know the location of the dragonballs, but used the scouters to find the Namekians and take the dragonballs from them. Dadoria flies up to kill the elder, but Freeza yells for him to kill the three young ones first. Dadoria flips down and tells the three Namekian warriors that he will kill them all in ten seconds. He goes behind one and shoves his hand through his chest. Then, he turns around and blows away another with a mouth-blast. The other one manages to evade Dadoria's attacks and hits Dadoria with a blast. When the smoke clears, Dadoria emerges and slams the Namekian into a rock mountain, killing him. Freeza tells the elder it is useless to resist or flee, so he should come down. The elder does so and Freeza tells him he should give them his dragonball as an apology for destroying their scouters, otherwise the children will die next. The elder tells Freeza to first promise not to do anything to the children, to which Freeza and Zarbon just smile. As the elder goes to get the dragonball, Gohan is almost unable to suppress his rage and Kuririn tells him not to even think about it because there's no way they could last against those guys. The elder hands his dragonball to one of Freeza's henchmen and Freeza asks for the elder where he could find the other two dragonballs. The elder refuses to betray a fellow Namekian, even if he has to die. Freeza tells the elder he and his children will now have to die after all and Dadoria attacks the elder.
