Dragon Ball Z : Lord Slug


Lord Slug is one of the legendary Super Namekians. A Namekian that has been traveling through space for a number of years after being banished from his home world for misusing his powers. Along with his crew of vicious fighters, he travels from planet to planet wreaking chaos as he goes. An asteroid alert is wreaking havoc all over the planet as it is going to destroy the entire Earth. Goku and Krillin go to deflect the asteroid off course so it doesn't hit Earth, but though they succeed, a spaceship lands on Earth. Slug's men attempt to carry out the same destruction there that they had at a countless number of other planets. The way they dominate a planet is to literally change its atmosphere, freezing the planet. By conforming it to their liking, they make it more suitable for themselves and almost unlivable for any other people, including the native occupants of the planet. Slug's men manage to gather the Dragon Balls knowing of their power because of his Namekian heritage and uses them to restore his youth and health; like King Piccolo before him, being fully restored gave him a far greater power.

Goku, Gohan, Krillin, and Piccolo square off against Slug's team and manage to defeat them all. The final battle against Slug is left in the hands of Goku. The battle is not going well for Goku, who is repeatedly beaten down by Slug, until he catches a punch from Slug and his anger causes him to power up into what King Kai interprets as a Super Saiyan(only with blach hair like a super saiyan 0.5). Goku then angrily attacked Slug in a fierce battle and thanks to his increased strength, is able to deal several effective blows to the Super Namekian. However, Goku is not able to control this power for long and regresses back to his normal form, though he does manage to break Slug's arm. Despite this, Slug is able to tear off his broken arm and grow back a new one, revealing his Namekian heritage to Goku. He then transforms into a giant, more powerful version of himself (something Piccolo was able to do once also) and proceeds to completely annihilate Goku until Piccolo steps in. He becomes caught by Slug's giant hands and cannot escape. Piccolo then rips off his own ears and tells Gohan to whistle in order to use Slug's ultra sensitive hearing against him. Gohan does as told and whistles, causing Slug great pain.

Exploiting a weakness of all Namekians; their extremely sensitive hearing, Gohan's whistling is able to bring Slug to his knees (Piccolo had earlier torn off his ears, so he isn't harmed by this strategy). Piccolo then transfers all of his power to Goku, rejuvenating him. Goku then uses the Kaio-ken attack and succeeds in knocking down the giant Slug. Goku then flies up into the sky to destroy the weather changing generator and absorbs energy from the sun to form a Spirit Bomb. Slug attempts to stop him, but Goku launches the Spirit Bomb and it hits Slug, sending him into the generator, destroying them both. The final scene involves Master Roshi waking up from his nap which he started before the aliens landed and he wishes that something interesting would happen.
