As expected, Goku refused to do so, and alongside his former-rival Piccolo, faced off against Raditz. Kidnapping Goku's young son, Son Gohan, Raditz flew off and instructed to kill 100 humans before they met again, if he wanted his son back.

Goku refused, and so Raditz took drastic measures. Repulsed, Raditz gave Kakarot (now named Son Goku) the chance to join him without causing any harm. Raditz quickly searched for Kakarot's power level, and found him at a place called Kame House, where he was living among the humans.

Raditz quickly set out to Earth on his own, to find Kakarot, who he assumed had already conquered the planet.Īs Raditz arrived on Earth, he was surprised to find that civilization was still existing as usual. That's when an idea came to Raditz, as he recalled that his younger brother, Kakarot, had been sent to a planet called Earth shortly before Planet Vegeta was destroyed. Raditz knew that they needed an additional member to their team. However, as their conquest continued on, they were faced with more and more powerful resistance. That group would travel together for several years, pillaging and wiping life off of each planet they came across, and Raditz believed that the three of them were a formidable team unbeknownst to him, however, both Vegeta and Nappa considered Raditz a weak and unnecessary addition to their team. That group of three would soon become a trio of high-class fighters, serving under the Frieza Force to conquer planets. As Raditz grew older, he began distancing himself more and more from Bardock.įinally able to rebuild his reputation, Raditz would become friends with the Prince of Saiyans, Vegeta, and watched over by Nappa. Born on Planet Vegeta, Raditz grew up extremely distasteful of his position of a low-class Saiyan warrior, and knew that his relation to his father would mean that he would be stuck that way forever.

Raditz is the older brother of Son Goku, and first son of the legendary Saiyan warrior, Bardock. I do think you would have found the life of a Saiyan to be quite invigorating. I didn't come here to kill you, but it seems you have left me no choice. Alright then, you can have it your way, Kakarot.
