Chapter 11: Satan family
Mr Satan after losing a whole bunch of his water content from all the sweating, finally remembered where he saw this thing.
" Are you the previous world champion..? Goku..? "
Satan knew this tidbit because his managers had once thought of a gig where he would beat up an actor wearing a fake tail.
As tail was something the previous world champion used to have, according to the old data they gathered.
Satan was thankful that he didn't do this gig, he thought it was unnecessary, his presence alone would send this Goku fella cowering back home.
" Goku? Close but not quite, I am his older brother, Raditz, and I am much stronger than him. "
Satan remembered the old data that said Goku blew up the whole arena and shivered.
He always consoled himself saying it's all a trick, they buried something underneath to go boom and make a scene.
But he had to take this seriously now, he was standing before someone more powerful than the guy who blew up the entire stage.
" Good you understand your position Satan, the title you hold is clearly not your own, how are you going to compensate me for this? "
Raditz said as he folded his arms and his tail went back behind his fur waist cloth.
He usually hid it behind the fur covering for better concealment.
" I will give it you Mr Raditz! You can have my champion title! I'll announce it right away! "
Mr Satan said as quickly as possible, he had much to care about right now, money he can make again.
Raditz smiled at Satan, and said lightly.
" That alone isn't enough, I am stronger than you, I can take it from you myself. "
Mr Satan once again gave his chips.
" Money! I have all the money! You can have that too! "
Raditz laughed loudly at that and created an energy ball in his hands, it was glowing a soft purple.
" You see this Satan? This here is enough to destroy the moon, I can travel space Satan, I can burrow into the earth down to it's core. "
Scattering the energy gathering in his plam, Raditz siad lightly.
" In this world there is nothing out of my reach, that includes money, I used to take over planets and sell them Satan. Your money doesn't matter to me. "
Satan and his wife shivered, Raditz used to take over planets and sell them?! To whom?
" Are you an alien? "
Asked Satan's wife softly, this was such fascinating information.
Raditz looked at her and nodded.
" Maybe, Maybe not, you just need to know, before I came here, I used to take over planets and sell them to the highest bidder, all alien. "
Looking at the fascinated face of Satan's wife, Raditz smiled.
" The universe is teeming with them, all kinds of creatures exist. "
Satan and his wife both nodded, Satan with fear and his wife with fascination.
Raditz didn't speak anymore, he was only giving Satan time to figure out his sand here.
Now that time is given, it was Satan's turn to speak.
" Mr. Raditz, then you can take everything I have. You can take it all, I'll do anything you want me to do! "
Satan now decided to give up everything he owned even his own self, that was the practical maximum he can offer.
He will come down to the streets but that was a small price to pay, he was confident he will make it big again.
Raditz tapped his seat and looked at Satan for a while, all the while the couple sat awaiting judgement, finally, after what felt like hours to Satan, Raditz spoke.
" I see.. fine then, from now on you shall work for me, even if you were to die, I'll pull your soul out of otherworld, you have my word. "
Raditz looked at Satan with his patent Saiyan smirk, he can't do this right away, but he really can do this later, Dragonball's aren't that hard for him to get.
Satan's wife immediately held Satan's hand and turned pale, are they about to sell their souls?! Her husband was just called Satan, this soul selling and buying was something entirely new to them!
Satan himself was a shivering mess and tried to smile it off, wondering if this was a joke but every passing second he understood it wasn't.
" Mr. Raditz, can you I take his place instead? "
Said Satan's wife with a small smile, she was about to die soon anyway, so she figured she was the best person to give her soul.
" No! Honey! Take me, take me! "
Satan's hesitation immediately went away as he scrambled to do what he figured was selling his soul.
" You know what, I have a better idea, I'll take everyone under my command equally, you, your wife and.. your daughter. "
" No! Please! "
" Mr Raditz! "
Both husband and wife were like ant's on a stove, they almost scrambled to Raditz, their daughter Videl wasn't something they ever wanted to implicate.
Raditz frowned, there might be a misunderstanding here.
So he decided to take a look at what had them so scared, and was then speechless reading their thoughts, that was not the kind of deal he was speaking of.
" Sit down, you do not understand what I can give you, it is not something you want to refuse. "
Putting up his finger, he said clearly.
" First, whoever works for me will have my protection, you will be always be safe unless I fall, even in death I can even pull your soul out of the otherworld. "
Satan's wife's eyes widened, so if she promised, can she live?! Can she watch Videl grow up!
Not giving any chance for the couple to speak, Raditz raised another finger.
" Second, I only need Satan to work for me, but sooner or later, you and your family will die of old age, leaving Satan alone, my offer was only to keep you all together. "
Staring at the stunned duo Raditz said lightly.
" Remember this, except Satan neither of you bring anything I want to the table, but even so, I decided to give you an opportunity to show your talents, now tell me, if you accept or not. "
Raditz stopped after clarifying the misunderstanding, and the couple looked at each other.
Then Satan and his wife had a conversation with their eyes, something which Raditz heard anyway because he was just that awesome, ki for the win.
" Mr Raditz we accept.. what do we have to do? I'll bring Videl, she is in the bedroom. "
Said Miguel, that was the name of Mark's wife, looking at her, it was obvious where Videl got her courage from.
" You don't need to do anything, as long as you accept, and don't betray, my promise will stay valid. "
Raditz said lightly, and they both nodded quickly, betrayal? What a joke, no way they would do that to someone who can manipulate life and death.
" That so, then welcome, you both are under my wing now, Satan, now we have some things to discuss, the world needs a new champion. "
Reaching a deal with the couple, Raditz started laying out his plans, Satan will use his mind and natural charisma to push Raditz up the path of fame.
Raditz will be taking the place of world champion, the place which Satan held via deceit, and this time the world champion will actually hold his weight.
