Freeza Saga
Years ago, Freeza killed Vegeta, the Saiyan king, and conquered the Saiyan Planet. Then, he used the primitive Saiyan inhabitants as mercenaries to conquer other planets. Vegeta's son, named after his father, also worked for Freeza despite the fact that he was the Saiyan Prince. A legendary hero rose. His name was Bardock, and his story is told in the Lonely Final Battle. The tragic fate of the Planet Vegeta and the Saiyans were at hand, and only few Saiyans were left now. After the Vegeta Series, only two pure Saiyan breeds were left. One was the Saiyan Prince, Vegeta. The other was Bardock's son, Gokou...
After the death of Raditz, Vegeta learns from the message from Raditz's scouter that Dragonballs existed. Later, he figured out that Namek Dragonballs also existed. After getting beaten by Gokou, Vegeta retreats to Freeza's planet to recover. Now, he carries on the new goal of gathering the Dragonballs for himself to be granted the wish of immortality. He also plans to kill Freeza. Freeza is also in search of the Namek Dragonballs to become immortal and begins to terrorise Namek for the Dragonballs. Meanwhile, Bulma learns about the Namek Dragonballs PoPo, Kami's assistant. With the hope to gather the Dragonballs to wish their friends killed in the Vegeta Series back to life, Gohan, Klilyn, and Bulma venture off to Namek on the spaceship that Kami rode on to travel to Earth years ago. Great battles on Piccolo's home planet are to take place...
Gohan, Klilyn, and Bulma learn that Vegeta is also on Vegeta and also learn about Freeza. Gokou is informed of this and recovers from the battle against Vegeta by eating a senzu bean from Yarijobe.
Using Gokou's old space pod after it was enhanced by Dr. Briefs, Bulma's father, Gokou travels to Namek. At the same time, the deceased Yamcha, Tenshin-han, Chaou-zu, and Piccolo are training with Kaiou. Meanwhile, Vegeta begins his fight against Freeza. With strategic actions, Vegeta kills Dodorian and Zarbon, Freeza's right and left hand men, and steals the captured Dragonballs from Freeza. However, Vegeta  learned from Dodorian that the Saiyan planet was not destroyed by a meteor as stated, but by Freeza. Ambitions to kill Freeza are strengthened. Freeza learns of Vegeta's betrayal and calls forth the Ginew Squad. Team Ginew, consisting of five members who constantly pose in funny dances, have a reputation as being powerful warriors of destruction.
Gokou finally lands on Namek. The Z warriors now have a new enemy, one who must be defeated for the safety of the entire galaxy. Everyone plans to defeat Freeza, but Freeza is too strong. Realising that he himself cannot defeat Freeza, Vegeta joins the Z warriors, but boasts that it is only to insure that Gokou survives the battle so that he could kill him personally. Team Ginew is killed by the combined forces of Gokou and Vegeta (except for Ginew, who accidentally turned into a frog when he tried to swap bodies with Vegeta and Gokou threw a frog in his path). Then, follows the fights against Freeza himself. To everyone's surprise, Freeza has the ability to transform into a few stages. With each physical transformation, Freeza's power increases. Klilyn is killed in battle and Gokou becomes enraged in an anger so deep that he too undergoes a transformational power-up. Gokou's hair becomes golden and spikes up, and he reaches Super Saiyan level for the first time. The tides of battle now turn to Gokou.

After a fierce battle, Freeza is defeated. He does not give up and fires an energy ball at Gokou. Gokou returns it a single energy blast, Freeza is blown. Freeza learns the true powers behind a Super Saiyan. The Z warriors are back on Earth. The dead Z warriors are granted back to life. Everyone thinks that Gokou was killed in battle, but Gokou really escaped to planet Yardrat, where he learned how to teleport. Cold, Freeza's father, learns about Freeza's defeat and quickly gathers Freeza's body parts, which are floating around in space. His henchmen quickly re-ensemble Freeza. (This is why Freeza was half robotic.) Freeza tells his father about Gokou and his powers, but his father doesn't believe him. Cold continues to boast that he is the universe's strongest warrior and best space conqueror, and can never be defeated.
The villains land on Earth to seek revenge for Freeza's defeat. The Earth becomes endangered once again. All of a sudden, a figure appears out of nowhere. It is adult Trunks, but no one knows who he is or where he came from. He turns into his Super Saiyan level and aids the Z Warriors in their battle. Trunks single-handed kills Freeza and Cold with the aid of his sword. Trunks tells that Gokou is not dead, but will appear in front of them in a matter of minutes. Everyone doubts whether or not to believe this stranger. In a few minutes, Gokou lands on Earth in one of Team Ginew’s capsule. Trunks introduces himself to Gokou as Bulma and Vegeta's son. He grew up and travelled back in time to prevent his chaotic future. Trunks tells about deadly androids. He carries heart attack medicine for Gokou. Trunks also tells when the androids will appear. The Z warriors start training.
