Vegeta Saga
One Year after Goku's death the Saiyans arrive on Earth, looking for the dragon balls. The Earth's special forces arrive after Napa destroys a small city. Soon the media and the military arrive to watch over the monumental battle. Vegeta and Nappa, the two saiyans, decide to employ the help of their Saibamen, small green men who grow out of a seed planted in the ground in a couple minutes time. Piccolo, Gohan, Krillin, Yamcha, Tien, and Choazu decide to fight the Saibamen one at a time. Vegeta agrees to those terms and the tournament like battle ensues. Yamcha beats a Saibaman, but while his back is turned, it jumps from the ground and latches onto him. It self-destructs, killing Yamcha in the process. Krillin gets really mad and fires off a blast that starts the end of the Saibamen. Once the team has beaten the Saibamen, the bigger of the two saiyans, Nappa, steps up to battle.
No one is even able to touch Nappa, who proves way to strong and fast for the outclassed humans. Choazu comes the closest when he attempts to pull Nappa into an alternate dimension (kill him), but Nappa blocks just in time and Choazu ends up dead. Tien goes into a rage, and launches a suicide attack against the giant alien. Before Nappa finally kills Tien, he chops his arm off. Nappa is a little bruised after the fight with Tien but he is pretty unharmed. Just as Nappa goes to fight against the remaining 3 fighters, Vegeta calls a time out to give Kakorot (Goku) time to arrive on the scene. The 3 hour time out expires and the fighting resumes. Nappa launches a blast at Gohan, and Piccolo jumps in front of the blast and takes the shot. Piccolo dies from Nappa's blast, but Gohan is spared. Nappa's assault continues against Gohan and Krillin. Enter Goku!!
Goku makes sport of Nappa for a bit before eventually Vegeta, sick of his partner's incompatence, kills Nappa. That leaves Vegeta and Goku to battle it out. The fights runs to a stalemate until it looks as if Goku has the upper hand when he starts to form a Spirit Bomb. But then, Vegeta pulls out his ace, a blast of energy meant to mimic the full moon. Vegeta goes into Oozaru and starts to convincingly win the fight. Eventually the cowardly Yajirobe comes to the rescue cutting off Vegeta's tail. Goku blasts him with a kamehameha, wearing himself and Vegeta out.
Afterwards, Goku donates to Krillin the remaining energy of his Spirit Bomb and tell him how to use it. Krillin throws the bomb but Vegeta dodges it. Luckily, Gohan deflects the blast back to Vegeta for a direct hit. After the dust clears, Krillin attempts to finish off Vegeta with Yajirobe's sword. But, Goku stops him and they allow Vegeta to fly away on his Saiyan spacecraft to fight another day.
