Seeing his useless minions being effortlessly eliminated by John Doe's clones, Frieza flew into a rage and decided to take matters into his own hands, intending to personally deal with John's clones.
But John instantly teleported in front of Frieza, and with a mighty "Boom," he caught Frieza off guard with a punch enhanced by the 20x Kaio-ken.
Frieza was sent crashing into a nearby mountain, causing a massive explosion of debris.
"Boom!" The debris pinning Frieza down was blasted away by his own energy, creating a deafening sound.
Although Frieza wasn't injured, he felt deeply humiliated.
Frieza shrieked, "What was that technique you used, suddenly disappearing and reappearing? I can assure you, it's not because of your speed."
"Teleportation!" John replied.
"Teleportation, indeed! It's truly worthy of its name," Frieza praised, but then his expression changed. "Hmph, the gap in our strength is not something you can bridge with a mere teleportation. I might not be able to hit you, but what about the others?"
Frieza's words startled John, and in the next moment, Frieza vanished from his sight, reappearing next to Vegeta.
Vegeta, who was engaged in a battle with Dodoria, had no idea that Frieza would leave his fight with John and attack him. Unprepared, he was struck by Frieza once again.
The powerful impact pierced through Vegeta's body, and he instantly lost consciousness, collapsing to the ground.
At that moment, Goku was suppressing the transformed Sabo, intending to finish him off. But when he turned his head, he saw Frieza attacking Vegeta and shouted, "Vegeta!" He teleported next to Vegeta and took out a Senzu Bean to save him.
Meanwhile, after attacking Vegeta, Frieza turned his attention to Gohan.
When Frieza attacked Vegeta, John was momentarily caught off guard. Seeing Frieza about to continue his assault on the others, he immediately teleported in front of Frieza.
Frieza had achieved his goal, forcing John to engage him in combat instead of avoiding the fight through teleportation.
However, for now, John was merely forced to fight Frieza, and teleportation remained a challenging issue to overcome.
Frieza's attacks were mostly evaded by John, with only a few landing on his body.
As John continuously teleported around Frieza, he said, "Frieza, although my current strength may not match yours, with my ability to teleport, you won't defeat me easily."
However, John underestimated Frieza's combat prowess. Just as John thought his teleportation was impenetrable, Frieza, anticipating John's position, executed a swift side kick, striking John's abdomen with force.
John clutched his abdomen, his face contorted in pain, as he stared at Frieza in astonishment. Frieza then extended his tail, wrapping it around John's neck and lifting him up.
Frieza, looking at the shocked John, boasted, "Are you surprised that I know where you appear?"
As he spoke, Frieza landed two heavy punches on John's abdomen, causing him to cry out in pain again.
Frieza continued, "Do you think your teleportation is unbreakable? No, every time you teleport, a powerful energy is released at your landing point. I just need to sense that energy to locate you."
"So, using teleportation in battle is nothing but a joke," Frieza said, tightening his tail around John. John struggled desperately, but he was choked to the point of suffocation.
By this time, Goku had already saved Vegeta and defeated Sabo. Seeing John captured by Frieza's tail, he left the enemies to Vegeta and the others and teleported near Frieza to launch an attack.
Frieza punched the spot where Goku had teleported, hitting Goku's face as he appeared, and Goku was sent flying.
Goku, undeterred, repeatedly attempted to attack with teleportation, but Frieza repelled him each time. John, struggling, managed to warn him, "Goku, stop using teleportation! He can sense our energy and know our landing points."
Frieza, seeing that John could still speak even while restrained by his tail, tightened his grip. John felt his breathing becoming more difficult.
Perhaps it was a stroke of luck, but John, like Son Goku in the original story, opened his mouth and bit down on Frieza's tail.
Frieza let out a loud shriek and released John from his tail.
John immediately flew away, coughing and clutching his throat. He felt like he had just escaped death.
Frieza, on the other hand, blew on the teeth marks on his tail.
"You damn fool, how dare you bite my tail!" Frieza exclaimed, flying towards John to attack him. John and Goku then teamed up to fight Frieza.
Of course, John took the lead, as Goku's strength at this point was not sufficient to face Frieza alone.
Frieza, facing their combined assault, held his ground and even pressed back against John and Goku.
However, at this moment, Frieza was the only one with the upper hand, as his minions had all been defeated by Vegeta and the Z Fighters.
Frieza was shocked to realize that his numerous minions couldn't defeat a few Earthlings. Enraged, he pushed back John and Goku once more and then turned his attack towards Gohan and the others.
"No, Frieza!" Goku teleported and blocked the purple energy beam aimed at Gohan.
The beam passed through Goku's body, spraying blood, and he fell heavily to the ground.
Krillin quickly fed Goku a Senzu Bean, reviving him.
However, this method of revival couldn't withstand Frieza's onslaught. Frieza stopped attacking John and instead focused his energy attacks on the Z Fighters and Vegeta. In a short time, all the Senzu Beans they had were exhausted.
Nappa was the first to die after the Senzu Beans were gone, becoming the first warrior to fall to Frieza.
Seeing that the Earthlings had no more Senzu Beans to save their comrades, Frieza smirked triumphantly. "Are you out? Haha... I thought you had countless beans, but it seems my killing is faster!"
