So we all roll in the hay the jokes about how fights in theDragon Ballfranchise   drag on   forever . Even fans of the franchise ca n’t help but laugh a bit at how the fibre spend several episodes just star at each other and screaming as they power up . And to an extent , that ’s straight . Dragon Ball Zin particular was intemperately stretch out to avoid pass out of cloth from the manga , so spare content was pack in whenever possible . The worst was emphatically inGoku’sfight with Frieza , which is   the longest fight in any Zanzibar copal , clocking in at over four hours long .

But despite all those jokes , the franchise does have plenty of fast - paced fights to switch things up . We wo n’t be count the motion-picture show , since they have draw time to cling to , and we ’re also only looking at fights where both characters knew they were having a fight . And our final linguistic rule is   they have to involve   name character who are seriously trying to belt down each other , mean no tournament fight where it ’s often more of a competitive sparring session .

That still leaves plenty of lightning quick battles though . So do n’t blink or you ’ll miss the15 Fastest Fights In Dragon Ball .

FUTURE TRUNKS VS IMPERFECT CELL

FutureTrunksburst into the dealership in a big way when he went up against Frieza in his first combat , but regrettably for him , his momentum dwindled pretty heavily later on . He totally failed to terminate the androids from being released , and was n’t even successful in ruin them   or the primary timeline ’s Cell . Clearly he bit off more than he could masticate by traveling to the yesteryear , but one matter you could say about Trunks is when he finally drive the opportunity to go for the kill , he use up it .

When Future trunk traveled back to his own timeline , he know that   in another world Cell had killed him and slip his prison term political machine . He was prepared for the flak and wasted little fourth dimension on peach when Cell appear . And to top it off , when Imperfect Cell was going for the Kamehameha to examine and clear some control in the engagement , Trunks did something so few Dragon Ball reference seem to know how to do — he interrupted his opponent ’s onslaught instead of just put up there and allowing it to happen ! What a insurgent .

VEGETA VS JEICE

Some fans might wonder why the entire Ginyu Force is n’t on here , sinceVegetadid eventually stamp out them all . But Jeice is really the only one Vegeta in reality square off against and defeated in struggle . He kill Guldo by surprise , had to be deliver from Recoome and Burter by Goku , and Captain Ginyu did n’t even get a chance to lash out before Vegeta at last killed him inDragon Ball Super . Jeice is pretty much the Ginyu Force   penis who get enough offence in for it to be a fight .

While Jeice was an awesome character thanks to his over - the - top Australian speech pattern , his Daucus carota sativa - colored skin , and his long rock candy wiz hair , he just was n’t much of a paladin . In fact , he ’s the only Ginyu Force member who is never particularize as sustain some special power . Nonetheless , he put up a valiant fight   against Vegeta , brawling through a starship and crashing through its   walls . But once Vegeta commence down some reverse , Jeice realized he was outmatched and bruise up begging for his life . It   was n’t a request Vegeta grant .

VEGETA VS ANDROID 19

It ’s fights like this one that really epitomize how efficacious quick battles can be when fans are so used to long engagement . When this scrap starts fans   may be   expecting Vegeta to be the underdog , since they   believe that Androids 19 and 20 are the killing machines Future Trunks monish of . And so far , the androids have been dwell up to that reputation by almost killing Yamcha , creating mayhem in the city , and even defeating a Super Saiyan Goku . So this looked like it ’ll be a tough fight .

Then Vegeta surprises everyone by not just   unveil that he ’s become a Super Saiyan , but even flaunting his power by permit Android 19 to absorb his energy . But once 19 prove the limit of his capableness , Vegeta wastes no time in providing the biggest show of all . Vegeta easily rips off 19 ’s hands , and delivers a swift takeover de grâce with his Big Bang Attack .

DABURA VS FAT BUU

It ’s somewhat rare we get to see two baddie present off against each other , so that alone made the brush between Dabura and Buu something challenging . Plus we ’d seen earlier that Dabura could hold his own against Gohan , and Buu had just nearly kill Gohan , so on newspaper publisher the two villain looked equally matched . But you knew this could be a quick fight since Dabura ’s expectoration could turn people to stone . And yet , Buu was the one who brought this to a close in a thing of minutes .

As we quickly saw , no matter how much damage Buu sustained , he could just reform from his injuries . And while Fat Buu had the innocence of a child , he was also passing immediate and strong . Dabura cursorily became injured during the fight and resorted to seek to use his stone - spitting technique , but could n’t bring down a single loogie . And then Buu swiftly cease the   fight by using his transmitting aerial to transform Dabura into a giant biscuit and literally eating him whole .

VEGETA VS CUI

In face you could n’t narrate , this is a Vegeta clayey listing . The guy just bang making quick work of unaccented opponents . ( If only he ’d stuck with that attitude when facing Semi - Perfect Cell ! ) With Cui , he set an immediate exemplar of how he was go to run things on Namek . Vegeta did the majority of the killing of the vicious characters during this saga , and with Cui , he proved why . Saiyans get stronger when they recover from near - death , and Vegeta almost pall a draw during this period , so he puzzle fantastically inviolable .

During this fight , Cui repeatedly boast about how he was going to get the effective of Vegeta because the two of them have always been even in their power level . But Vegeta broke out some new tricks from his time on Earth , demonstrating not only his boost in power , but his ability to hide his lawful power level , as well as being able-bodied to smell out the power of others without a rover . So after an ineffectual barrage , Cui realized he was outgo and proposed an alliance alternatively . The solvent to that request was a resounding " No ! "

GOKU VS YAKON

It had to pass off earlier or afterwards . With theDragon Ballfranchise so notorious for its lengthy scenes of characters powering up , eventually a character reference had to come along who is so weak that they die just from another character raising their power stratum . Yakon looked middling menacing , so you would n’t think he ’d be such a thrust over but , as Goku said before the engagement , it ’s not like Yakon is the wise opponent .

It see like an advantage when Yakon revealed that he could raven an opponent ’s power , but then Goku had such vast reserves of power that it did n’t really make a conflict . Goku deliberately turned Super Saiyan and just allow Yakon keep feed without ever pose a hand on him . You ’d think Yakon would have understand the program and just closed his lip , but this really was n’t Babidi ’s most level-headed minion . Yakon essentially killed himself by gorging himself on power until he irrupt , manifest why the middle of a scrap is no time for a bite break .

VEGETA VS DODORIA

Frieza does n’t share mightiness with many people , so Zarbon and Dodoria must have been particular to earn his trust . The two warriors had been with Frieza all the way back to when he attempted to root out the last of the Saiyans . And while Zarbon later prove able of handling himself , Dodoria did n’t fare so well . He scared offKrillinand Gohan easily enough , but had a tougher fourth dimension when he came across someone who would remain firm his ground .

It   was clear that Dodoria , like Cui , underestimated Vegeta ’s power and assumed he was still dealing with the same Saiyan who had gone to Earth . But once again , Vegeta exculpate up that misconception when   the fighting begin and he was preparing to rip off Dodoria ’s arms . Realizing he was surmount , Dodoria tried to dicker his way innocent by uncover Frieza ’s use in killing off the Saiyans . But that just reminded Vegeta of why he was a patsy to trust Frieza , so he decided not to make that same mistake with Dodoria , and vaunt him away .

YAJIROBE VS CYMBAL

Yajirobe ’s name does n’t really descend up a lot for anything in theDragon Ballfranchise . If you cogitate Yamcha and Tien got forgotten quickly , Yajirobe all but disappears after helping kill Vegeta inDragon Ball Z. It ’s actually kind of surprising since he does seem like a somewhat equal to warrior . He was intrepid enough to assault Vegeta in his Great Ape form , hefaced off against Gokuas a kid , and he even has one of the quickest kill in the franchise .

Any time a villain has minion , at least one of them is inevitably a misfire , so you know one of King Piccolo ’s children would n’t have long for the globe . Cymbal wound up being the golden recipient of that honor when he attacked Yajirobe for his Dragon Ball . Despite show some impressive power over lightning that seemed to give Cymbal the edge , that was nothing compared to the edge of Yajirobe ’s blade . Once Yajirobe bugger off near with his blade , he slit Cymbal in half quite chop-chop , and decided to roast his kill foe up for some breakfast .

VEGETA VS PUI PUI

By this detail in the franchise , the Saiyans were the potent warrior around and they knew it . Just depend at how many yr perish with the Z Fighters go bad unopposed , between the Cell Saga and the Buu Saga . It ’s understandable that they had grown confident , as they distinctly exceeded the expectations the Supreme Kai and Babidi had for   them . That was a lesson the villains who had to fight back the Z Fighters this clip around still had to learn .

Pui Pui was the first to abuse up to champion Babidi , getting Vegeta as his opponent . Pui Pui thought he had the sharpness when Babidi transform the scrap area into Pui Pui ’s homeworld , where the graveness was several times more intense than on Earth . Of course , he did n’t have intercourse that the Saiyans were already used to preparation in gravity one C of times that of Earth ’s , so Vegeta could n’t even severalise the difference . Pui Pui thought this was a bluff , but realized too recently that Vegeta was serious when the Saiyan Prince cursorily ended the fight without even turn Super Saiyan and blow Pui Pui away with an energy bang .

YAMCHA VS THE SAIBAMEN

As much as people joke about Yamcha being aweak fighter , that did n’t really become the case untilDragon Ball Zcame along with its rocket power levels . But even in his last real fight , Yamcha still did perfectly well for himself . He go up against one of the Saibamen that Nappa and Vegeta brought with them , and he beat the creature quite well . His only error was not making sure the Saibamen was actually finished off .

This is the only fight   on this lean where both battler wound up dead , but it was only because of a kamikaze attack from the Saibamen that well could have deal out any of the Z Fighters . It was just bad luck for Yamcha and his report that he was the recipient role of the blast . It was a warm defeat for both combatants , but Yamcha was the one hurt the most in the long term , since this fight lost him the respect of a lot of fan .
