Two Saiyan Warrior Arrive (Dragon Ball Z Nappa Saga)
The dragon ball z story continues with two Saiyans Nappa and Vegeta, landing their Saiyan space pods at the midst of a city named Metro East city. Nappa regarding Earth’s people as insects instantly destroys a major portion of the city with just one attack (show-off). Vegeta simply warns him to not make a mess before getting the dragon balls, and also for the sell value of Earth.
Both Saiyans detect more than two life forms on their Saiyan scouter, surpassing power level beyond 1000, and being amused over Earth’s low gravity. They reach the place where Piccolo, Gohan (5 years old) and Krillin are present. They casually divulge the secret of Piccolo’s origin to be a Namekian.

Nappa scouter scouted Gohan’s power level as 981, for Piccolo it is 1220 and Krillin’s power is 1083. Thinking about Earth’s fighters power boost capability, Vegeta and Nappa remove their Scouters. Nappa implants six seeds in the ground. From them, six humanoid Saibamen sprouts up and quickly surround the three people.

Chiaotzu, Tien Shinhan and Yamcha also arrived at the place. Tien Shinhan first battled a Saibamen and easily defeated it. Tien Shinhan’s power level is beyond 1200. Vegeta instantly destroyed the defeated Saibamen, whereas Nappa was a little surprised to see that Saibaman was overwhelmed even though its power level was over 1200, which was Raditz level.
Another Saibamen confronted Yamcha. The Saibaman showed its ability to spray acid from its skull and also displayed decent combat skills. Yamcha eventually defeated it but got hugged (historic meme moment) by the Saibaman and exploded. Yamcha’s power was around 1200.

After Yamcha’s death, Krillin started his assault against the remaining four Saibamen by quickly killing 3 of them with his full ki blast. He also ki blasted the two Saiyans. The last Saibaman is one-shotted by Piccolo. But to the group’s horror, Nappa and Vegeta are unharmed despite Krillin’s full power attack. Nappa gets excited and enters the fight.

Nappa begins his assault releasing his energy creating a minor Earthquake on earth. He starts first by cutting Tien Shinhan’s left hand and bashing him on the ground. Krillin who tries to intervene gets interrupted by a blast from Nappa creating a large crater. Looking at Tien’s constant misery, Chiaotzu grabs Nappa from behind and self explodes to kill Nappa.
Despite this, Nappa is unfazed. Tien fights back with greater momentum but all in vain. Piccolo and Krillin intervene to save Tien Shinhan. They used tactics to counter Nappa, but the plan fail due to Gohan chickening out at the last moment and not giving the final blow to Nappa.

Tien Shinhan gathers his remaining strength along with his life energy, and blasts a final Tri-beam attack on Nappa and dies. Nappa endures the attack with slight burns and only his Saiyan armor is damaged. After Tien Shinhan’s death, Vegeta asks about Goku. Getting the information about Goku’s delay in arriving from Piccolo, he stops Nappa to wait for 3 hours.
Nappa still wants to attack but Vegeta orders him not to. On asking about the wait for a Saiyan traitor, Vegeta tells Nappa that he wants Kakarot (Goku) to feel despair when he sees his son and friends, dying before him and then begging for death. Instead of waiting idly, Nappa goes on a rampage by killing a nearby tv crew.

It turns out stronger Saiyan bloodline warriors can train this weakness regarding their tail (s**t happens). He easily (elbow drop on the skull) defeats Piccolo and kicks the approaching Gohan. Krillin uses his new technique Destructo Disk (Kienzan) on Nappa. Sensing the danger Vegeta warned the ignorant Nappa to dodge it.
The Destructo Disk missing Nappa bisected a small cliff in half like tofu. Nappa ki blasted Krillin dealing heavy damage to him. Gohan fights back but in vain. Piccolo and others detect Goku’s energy signature. Hearing their conversation Vegeta uses the scouter, detecting a nearby approaching power level of 5000.
