For the entirety of next month Raditz had done only two things, eat and sleep.
His Saiyan biology had kicked in a while ago and his body had started to heal itself.
His bones slowly grew back, his nerves reconnected, his organs reformed, and after a whole month of non-stop recovery, the giant hole in his abdomen was finally gone.
" Yup, don't feel a thing, I was feeling fine a week ago but decided to take it easy anyway, but it's no longer necessary, I am indeed completely healed. "
Said Raditz as he walked towards the fireplace, during this month, he had found a cave behind a waterfall to live in.
Well, found was a strong word, he has blasted a cave area behind a waterfall was the better wording, but who cares, he was here and he will stay here.
Bending down Raditz looked at the fireplace, there his armour was placed, the newly designed armor was still hot to the touch.
" Even if I healed from an impossible wound, my armour remained broken, thankfully I could reforge it, a simple heat treatment and ki blade cut gave me a pretty good shape. "
Raditz's armour was the old model, it had a lot of unnecessary parts like the plating covering his thighs, his wide shoulder pads and such.
The armor material itself was capable of melting as it was a stretchable rubber like substance, it was much stronger than that, but extreme heat could indeed reforge it.
And reforge he did, taking out all the unnecessary parts, Raditz first fixed the hole in the stomach area, then changed to a better more sleeker version of the armor.
" I based it off the armour worn by Broly, in the new DBS movie, mine is just a different colour, after all I can't control the original material's colour. "
Said Raditz, but that wasn't the only thing changed in his current choice of attire.
His entire get up was like Broly's, from the armor design, to the black body suit, to the royal looking fur attached to his waist.
Everything Raditz was wearing currently had taken inspiration from Broly, but he didn't do this just because it looked good.
No, it was done because this was the design reasearched by Freeza army after they experimented for years in the future.
" The most practical design for a big guy like me, I am six feet three with a well balanced frame, it's good I somehow managed to cover my whole body in that stretchable clothing. "
Neither Goku nor Vegeta grew this big, his only reference was base Broly, so he went with it, as for how he managed to make his small underwear into a complete sleevless body suit.
That was also a question of materials, this was the same type of material used in his armour but thinner.
That meant it was capable of expanding to great sizes whenever a Saiyan went Oozaru, Raditz capitalised on that and made himself a full coverage body suit.
" Alright, it isn't that hot to the touch anymore, it's almost warm. Time to get dressed. "
Raditz's hands went into the fire pit and he took out the armor, giving it one last look for any defects, not finding any Raditz took it over his head and got his arms into it.
The new armour stretched and accomodated his muscular arms, and then it stretched some more as it covered his muscular chest.
* Snap *
With a snap, it fit in place as it snugly covered his body once again, giving him full protection.
Raditz after wearing this armour now looked exactly like DBS Broly, or how he would look if he had super Saiyan three hair.
But Raditz was a guy of immense stature, it wasn't only his height, but his highly muscular build, the super Saiyan three hair suit him very well, instead of looking out of place.
" I want to see how I look now, this took a lot of effort. "
Said Raditz as he walked out the opening of his cave, the immense pressure of the water crashing on him didn't bother him in the slightest.
Walking through the water, he made his way away from the waterfall and to a place where the water was less disturbed.
Bending down he looked at his attire.
" I have brown instead of green, and black instead of purple, otherwise everything is indeed as I remember it, this brown fur is also pretty good to keep warm in the cold. "
Said Raditz as he bent down and washed his face, then took a deep breath and flew out of the water, using his ki he heated himself up.
Evaporating the water attached to his body, a nifty little trick he learnt when barbecuing using his ki.
" I need to see what I can salvage from my spaceship. I only took out my spare scouter back then, and Gohan blew it to shreds. But there are bound to be things remaining. "
After all, it was a spaceship, it regularly travelled through outer space, it wasn't something that would be vaporized because Gohan rammed out his way.
And he had two things in there he was sure would survive that attack.
" Raditz had two saibamen seeds stocked up in there. He just never used them, they are a violent bunch, and are as strong as him, at 1300. He was barley a match for one of them without going Oozaru. "
But even if original Raditz wasn't a match for these guys, he was, his recent experience gave him a zenaki boost, he was still weak enough to get them, and it pushed him from a power level of 1300 to a power level of 1500, a full 200 increase all at once.
This might not sound like much to people who are used to bigger power levels, but this was power equalling two master Roshi combined, Goku and Raditz were low class warriors, they had to fight for every bit of power they got.
" But that's fine, I will fight if I need to, my potential is unlimited, I am a Saiyan. "
To Raditz, this was a good enough beginning, he can go right now, and trash every single warrior on earth even without going Oozaru. It was all a matter of perspective.
Even if he let piccolo special beam canon him again, he can take it without dying this time around, that was how big of a difference this power boost made to his current situation.
It was only one month since his defeat, most of the z warriors didn't get strong enough to face even the regular him after a whole year of training, his current self would mop the floor with any of them.
* Whoosh *
Raditz flew without any aura flame covering him, and he flew at a normal speed, he wasn't in any hurry.
The upcoming Saiyan's weren't even his problem to being with. If the Z fighters somehow lose he would just join Vegeta and leave.
Taking it easy Raditz kept flying, and soon with his carefree flight, he came upon his spaceship remains, they were just as he remembered them, not disturbed by anyone.
" Hmm, it's a good thing it was destroyed, or bulma would have understood what these debris were and taken it away for research, let's see where is it..? "
Said Raditz as he bent down and began searching the metal parts.
* Brush *
* Clink *
Moving some more intact parts around, Raditz finally found the seeds, buried in the dirt were two green beans.
The two Saibamen seeds were safe and sound.
" Nice, I got two more helpers. "
Said Raditz, he didn't have the exact chemical solution to activate them, but water should work just fine.
Raditz now looked at the debris and decided to take them away.
" Telekinesis is definitely possible with ki, Chiaotzu can do it, Freeza can do it, Vegeta did it at namek, Goku can do it as well, but sadly I can't do it yet, so old fashioned way it is. "
Smiled Raditz as he used his hands to collect the debris in one place, then flew up for a better view, he again found some which were scattered far away.
After he collected all these in one place, he used a thin beam of ki to cut a chunk of a mountain rock in a bowl shape.
Putting it all in one place, he flew back, vaporizing the remainder of the rock the bowl shape was cut from, just to erase traces.
" Alright, time to see if I can fix this, shouldn't be too hard, even if I can't, there is Goku's and nameless namekian's spaceship as a reference, I should be able to do something. "
Whispered Raditz, his first desire after getting better wasn't revenge or something, it was getting the hell out of earth.
He was still a bad guy in everyone's eyes, sure these guy's are very trusting and he can easily worm his way into their group, he was Goku's brother after all.
But he would rather go to Mars, Saiyan's can survive even in the harshest of conditions, Broly survived for years as a child in Vampa, a planet said to be completely inhospitable.
As as long as the air has some amount of breathable Oxygen, Saiyan's were good to go, so until Raditz was confident enough in beating anyone that might come in the current timeline, he would like to get the hell out of earth.
