Chapter 56 - Chapter 56: Killing Part 1

As Vegeta continued his intense battle against Frieza, it became increasingly clear that, despite his bravado, he was taking the brunt of the punishment. Frieza's superior skill and speed allowed him to land blow after blow, sending Vegeta reeling. But, as the fight went on, something inside Vegeta began to stir. The humiliation of being beaten so thoroughly fueled his rage, and with each punch, Vegeta's anger and pride grew.

Frieza, reveling in Vegeta's suffering, laughed cruelly. "Is this the mighty Saiyan prince? Pathetic!" Frieza taunted, his voice dripping with arrogance.

Hearing this, Vegeta's anger erupted. His muscles bulged, and veins began to appear on his forehead and arms. With a powerful yell, his combat power surged dramatically, forcing Frieza to pause and reassess the situation.

Realizing Vegeta's newfound strength, Frieza's expression darkened. He finally understood that Vegeta had managed to push himself beyond his previous limits, and this was no longer a simple fight. "Hmph, so you've managed to grow stronger in your anger," Frieza remarked with disdain, but his tone had a hint of caution now.

Without hesitation, both warriors charged at each other. Fists collided in mid-air, sending shockwaves through the battlefield. To Frieza's surprise, the impact sent him flying backward, crashing through the landscape as he was pushed back by Vegeta's power. Vegeta didn't relent—he pressed the attack, launching a relentless barrage of punches and kicks, forcing Frieza to go on the defensive.

Each strike from Vegeta landed with more power than the last, making Frieza angrier by the second. Eventually, in a fit of frustration, Frieza sneakily lashed out with his tail, catching Vegeta by surprise. The tail wrapped tightly around Vegeta's waist, pinning his arms to his sides and leaving him vulnerable.

"You fool!" Frieza sneered as he punched Vegeta repeatedly. Each hit was powerful, and Vegeta struggled to break free. The mocking grin returned to Frieza's face as he took pleasure in the Saiyan's helplessness. "Is this all you have, Saiyan? You dare challenge me?"

Realizing he was trapped and unable to escape, Vegeta quickly focused his remaining energy and summoned a concentrated ki blast. With a roar, he directed the blast at Frieza's tail, severing it in one clean strike.

"Arghhh!" Frieza screamed in agony as his tail was cut off. He staggered backward, clutching the bleeding stump where his tail had once been. The pain and humiliation enraged him, and his composure shattered.

Vegeta, now free, smirked as he stood tall, his pride restored. "Looks like I just took away one of your toys, Frieza. How does it feel to be the one in pain for once?"

Frieza's eyes burned with hatred, but before he could retaliate, Vegeta took the opportunity to charge up one of his signature attacks. Raising both hands, Vegeta gathered his energy and began to power up his **Galick Gun**, the air crackling with purple energy.

"This is the end for you, Frieza! I'll send you to the same place I sent your brother!" Vegeta shouted with confidence, pouring every ounce of his power into the attack.

Frieza's eyes widened as the purple beam of energy shot toward him. He barely had time to react as the beam struck him with full force, engulfing his entire body in a blinding explosion of light. As the smoke cleared, Frieza's figure was no longer visible.

Vegeta stood, breathing heavily, a proud smirk on his face. "Heh... that's what you get for underestimating the Saiyan prince." He thought for a moment that he had finally defeated his hated enemy.

But just as he was about to celebrate, a chilling voice echoed from the smoke. "Is that the best you can do, Vegeta?"

The smoke dissipated, revealing Frieza—bruised and bloodied, but very much alive. His eyes burned with a mixture of rage and disbelief. "I've had enough of this game. You'll pay for this humiliation!" Frieza's power surged once again, his aura turning a deep, malevolent shade.

Vegeta's smirk faltered. "Impossible... how is he still standing?"

Just as Frieza prepared to unleash his vengeance on Vegeta, the blue-haired Super Saiyan, Trunks, suddenly appeared in front of him, moving at incredible speed. Without hesitation, Trunks swung his sword in a clean, swift motion, and before Frieza could react, his body was sliced into pieces. Frieza's expression twisted in shock and disbelief as his body was reduced to fragments, and with a final, chilling gasp, he was completely destroyed—killed by Trunks' powerful sword strike.

The battlefield went silent for a moment, as everyone, including Vegeta, stared in stunned disbelief. Vegeta's face twisted with anger. His long-awaited moment of revenge was taken from him in an instant. He clenched his fists and yelled furiously at Trunks, "Why did you do that?! He was mine! I was supposed to kill him!"

Trunks turned to face Vegeta, still in his Super Saiyan form, and replied calmly, "You couldn't finish him, so I had to. If I hadn't stepped in, you'd be dead right now."

Vegeta, his pride wounded, growled in frustration. "I didn't need your help! I was about to—"

But before Vegeta could finish his rant, Trunks had already turned his attention to the ongoing battle between Goku and King Cold. Without wasting any time, Trunks dashed toward King Cold to assist Goku. Vegeta, consumed by his anger and frustration, followed behind, determined to confront Trunks and claim his place in the battle.

As King Cold launched his massive Qi bomb at the battered and bloodied Goku, the situation seemed dire. Goku, barely standing after enduring the overwhelming power of King Cold, was helpless against the impending attack. The air was thick with tension as the bomb sped toward him, threatening to end the battle for good.

Just then, Trunks, the blue-haired kid in yellow Super Saiyan form , appeared in front of the blast with incredible speed. Without hesitation, he gathered his energy and fired a powerful Qi blast of his own, colliding with King Cold's attack. The two energy forces clashed violently for a moment, before Trunks' blast overpowered the bomb and sent it careening off into the distance, saving Goku from certain doom.

With a calm yet determined expression, Trunks turned and gently picked up Goku, who was barely conscious. "You've done enough," Trunks said softly, recognizing the strength Goku had shown in the fight. "Let me handle this now."

Goku, weak but still alert, nodded in silent agreement, his body unable to continue. Trunks flew him to a safer location, away from the battlefield, laying him down gently. "Rest here. I'll finish this," Trunks said, before flying back toward King Cold.

King Cold, watching from a distance, sneered at the sight of Trunks approaching. "So, you think you can challenge me, boy?" King Cold growled, his voice full of arrogance. "I'll crush you just like I did that Saiyan."

Trunks landed in front of King Cold, his aura flaring up as he prepared for battle. "You're underestimating me, King Cold. That was your first mistake."

Without another word, Trunks charged toward King Cold, his sword in hand. King Cold, taken aback by the boy's speed, barely had time to react as Trunks swung his sword with incredible precision. The blade cut through the air, forcing King Cold to block with his arms.

The two clashed in mid-air, Trunks' fierce determination meeting King Cold's raw power. Sparks flew from their exchange, but Trunks was faster, sharper, and more focused. King Cold, though powerful, struggled to keep up with the young warrior's relentless attacks. Trunks' Super Saiyan transformation gave him the edge, and with each strike, King Cold was pushed further and further back.

Seeing his advantage, Trunks taunted, "You're not as strong as you think, Cold. Your reign ends here!"

King Cold's eyes widened in rage, and he unleashed a powerful energy wave, trying to overwhelm Trunks. But Trunks dodged with ease, his speed far surpassing King Cold's. In an instant, he was behind the tyrant, raising his sword high.

Before King Cold could react, Trunks swung his blade down, cutting through the air with lethal precision.

The battle was nearing its climax, and it was clear that Trunks had the upper hand. King Cold, despite his immense power, was no match for the young Super Saiyan's incredible speed and technique.

The sword blade infused with qi cut through King Cold body killing him instantly .
