Freeza's actions were harsh but this was just how Freeza worked, after getting rid of Cold he managed go calm his anger down, and was now staring at Raditz.
Freeza's organs might have been torn and his bones might be shattered but neither his species nor he himself knew when to quit.
Picking himself off the ground, Freeza started to float in his buff form, his dense muscles keeping his shattered bones in place.
Glaring at Raditz and Gohan Freeza spat with resentment.
"Super Saiyan this, Super Saiyan that, I am sick of all you Saiyans!"
Rage overflowed from Freeza, he was in pain and was extremely upset over these monkeys jumping around before him.
This planet, these monkeys, the Dragonballs, everything can go to hell.
'He might try to do something drastic again.'
Thought Raditz, he had already stopped Freeza once from destroying Namek, he could do it again.
The only reason Freeza was still alive was so he can meet his end before the Saiyans, Raditz could end him anytime and so could Gohan.
Freeza's actual threat was significantly lower to Raditz, so now the question arose, who should be the one to end Freeza.
Raditz didn't mind doing it, but before he could suggest something Gohan took initiative.
"Uncle Raditz, I want to defeat him."
Gohan was shaken up and wasn't in a very good mood, he didn't master Super Saiyan yet so anger was still predominant in his mind.
Although Gohan would never hurt anyone, be it Cell or Freeza, he could at least defeat them until they can't fight anymore.
After that Raditz will take care of Freeza depending on the situation, thinking that Raditz waved his hand towards Gohan.
"Fine, you do that, let's see how a Super Saiyan fights."
"Thank you uncle Raditz..!"
*Whooosh*
Rushing towards Freeza Gohan punched out, in response to which Freeza countered back.
An angry buff Freeza was fighting a shining golden Gohan, Freeza was still going to get his fair share of golden PTSD it seems.
*Booom*
*Booom*
*Booom*
An intense battle was taking place, Super Gohan was a slightly stronger than Freeza at 100% full power, but Freeza was a genius, so the fight was pretty equal.
It could tilt either way depending on how Gohan handled the situation, but Goku had faith in him.
Vegeta had sat up by now and was panting while he watched the battle with clenched teeth.
"Raditz..! What did you mean by Super Saiyan before? How can Kakarot's son be a Super Saiyan too?!"
*Boom*
"Aaagh!"
Vegeta spat blood from the kick Raditz just delivered to his chest, spitting more blood Vegeta looked up with anger but Raditz stared at him coldly.
"It's not 'Raditz', that's King for you Vegeta, do not make me repeat myself twice."
"If you have any problem with my status, fight me and take it back, but before that, act like you understand what you even want to take back."
Clenching his teeth with anger Vegeta glared at Raditz, but he finally didn't talk back, it wasn't that he had turned over a new leaf but Raditz's words got to him.
If he was incapable of following even the most basic Saiyan tradition what kind of royalty did he even want to become.
He'll take his birthright back from Raditz the Saiyan way, this was a matter of pride.
Watching Vegeta keep mum, Raditz nodded to himself, good, the prince had realised his current position.
"Good, now that I have made myself clear it's time to talk about that boy, he's indeed a Super Saiyan."
Going into Ikari Raditz's eyes went yellow, pointing towards his eyes Raditz explained to Goku and Vegeta.
"I think that might be Super Saiyan, it's the same colour as my eyes after all. And after watching the boy transform I have some new conclusions."
"I think, any Saiyan can go Super Saiyan..!"
Vegeta almost gasped but held it in, and Raditz continued after letting that sink in, emphasizing his current transformation
"But what you see here is a different kind of power, unlike the boy I can grow stronger endlessly, I do not even know where my limit is at, if I even have one."
"As far as I can understand, my only limit is my control."
Shutting down Ikari Raditz's hair dropped down and he breathed out, meanwhile his message had shocked Goku and shaken Vegeta.
Dopping his head down for a bit, Vegeta then slowly raised it back.
"So that's it, getting endlessly stronger.. the difference between a legendary Super Saiyan and regular Saiyan."
Vegeta was currently trying to comprehend the sheer gap between Raditz and him.
Even if Raditz was right and he achieves Super Saiyan the way that boy did, he was still no match for Raditz, the yellow eyes form of him had no known limits.
Knowing that Vegeta had received a big hit to his ego, he didn't know what to do anymore.
"So.. that means I can do what Gohan did? Oh boy that's neat!"
Goku had a totally different mentality from the collapsed Vegeta, he showed a drastically different outlook to the same scenario which made Raditz smile.
This was why Goku could rise up from a mere single digit power level to his current 3 million, he simply had a way of looking into things which inspired confidence.
And it did inspire confidence, Vegeta's eyes shook and he seems to have found his way again, his collapsed body had found a new support and straightened itself back.
Raditz took all that into account and smiled at Goku.
"You can Kakarot, I think all of us can, I wonder how Gohan did it, it'll be good if he can transform at will."
Goku nodded with a proud smile of his own.
"Yeah, Gohan seemed to be having trouble going Super Saiyan on his own, but it's nothing he can't handle."
His faith on his son's ability was obvious to all and Raditz agreed with it, Gohan was much more stable headed compared to before, he would surely get the hang of it.
And when he does, Raditz would follow along and understand how he should go about triggering Super Saiyan himself.
But for now.
*Booom*
There was a fight to watch, a fight that was of great importance to every Saiyan alive.
