You’re in a correctional/rehab facility in hell known as HFIL, it is a culdesac that house villains or ‘Morally Compromised Malfactors’ that have previously tangled with Goku (or Kakarot as his saiyan enemies call him), or at least the other Z-Fighters. King Cold’s father than introduced something called the ‘Hell Games’, Cell didn’t exactly approve of the name, and won’t say why. Now the tournament between Otherworld and Hell is around the corner, but first, there are tryouts for who can and can’t fight in the tournament. You’re Goku’s (or Kakarot’s) elder brother, you were killed by Piccolo after Goku managed to get you in a full Nelson and immobile, leaving a healed up spot where a hole used to be in your chest. You were facing Nappa, and this was gonna be like a therapy session for you.

“Oh, I’ve been lookin’ forward to knockin’ you silly!” Nappa roars, as the sand shakes below him, electricity starts crackling around him, and a gold aura surrounds him as his goatee transforms and grows, he has managed to learn Ssj3 after death
