Goku: The Earth's Savior

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EF-d1hwXUF4

Goku before he fights King Piccolo

Son Goku has saved the earth time and time again and was willing to give the most precious thing everybody values: the gift of life itself. He put himself in the line of fire to save his beloved planet. Goku holds many titles: World Martial Arts Champion, The Saiyan Raised on Earth, and The Warrior of Legend, a Super Saiyan. But Goku has many titles some people forget to look at like father, husband, and friend. When his friends hear his name they think strong, amazing warrior, not willing father. Goku always pulls out all the stops and supports his friends. But there have been times when Goku has been that sideline supporter. He always goes above and beyond and seems to be the words "Pure Miracle" himself. Goku: warrior, friend, father, and Earth's savior.

He was happy to see his present self but never revealed his identity to the present Trunks. The present Trunks was amazed by Trunks' sword. Trunks left the crowd and started his way toward the ring.

He popped his hands open and let out all his pride in one last attack. " Tri-Beam ! ah...ah...ah" were Tiens screams of glory. Trunks dragged his legs with his arms.
