Background

Turles is a powerful Saiyan warrior who bears a striking resemblance to Goku, and his father Bardock. Growing up on Planet Vegeta, Turles was enlisted into the Saiyan Army (which fought under both the Cold and Frieza Force,) where he gained immense power and skill; though he was still viewed as a lower-class fighter. One day, no longer wishing to serve the army, Turles left Planet Vegeta on his own accord.

Not soon long after, however, the entire planet had been blown up by Frieza. Turles knew Frieza was behind it and developed a deep hatred for the tyrant, but continued on with his life nonetheless. Eventually, Turles founded the Crusher Corps.; an intergalactic group of space pirates who traversed the galaxy in search of a mystical seed known as the Seed of Might.

Turles had heard the stories of the Tree of Might, a divine tree that granted unbelievable power, and was seeking it out. Eventually, the Crusher Corps. miraculously came across a Seed of Might. However, Turles knew that he would have to plant the Tree somewhere that was incredibly rich with life, and so he headed to Planet Earth.

After arriving on Earth and planting the tree, he was met with much resistance by the Z Fighters who resided there. Along with his Crusher Corps., Turles was able to knock out the Z Fighters and continue on their quest to each the Fruit from the Tree of Might. However, fellow Saiyan, Son Goku, still stood in Turles's way.

Turles beat down Goku on several occasions, even nearly killing him after he got a bite of the Fruit of Might. However, Goku was able to gather a Spirit Bomb with what little strength he had left, and tagged Turles with it. Rising up in a blinding ball of ki, Turles was killed and the Tree of Might crumbled.

Attack Potency: Metropolis level (Potency) (His confirmed power level is only slightly higher than that of Saiyan Saga Vegeta, thus making them comparable; Vegeta's power level is 18,000, making him far above the likes of Nappa who casually destroyed a city and stood within the blast without having any damage, and Raditz who can cause explosions dwarfing the mountains, which results in these levels of energy), Higher as an Oozaru (The Oozaru transformation makes a Saiyan’s power level ten times greater than before). Varies: Skill with Strongest Charged Blast (Charged Blast have one focus all of their energy into one single point, putting the blasts power far beyond what their peak strength is, allowing them to destroy things they couldn't prior with their regular attacks, this also allows them to use charged attacks that can stop enemies far beyond their level, such as Tien Shinhan pushing back Semi-Perfect Cell with his Neo Ki-Ko-Ho, along with stopping an attack shot from Buu absorbed Gotenks. Strongest charged blast can gather ki to shoot out blast far beyond what the character is normally capable of, with blasts capable of seriously damaging/destroying the Earth along with completely obliterating the opponent. Charged Blast also rely heavily on emotional states for example Gohan not believing in himself was having Cell overpower him in a beam clash) | At least Metropolis level (Potency) (Was able to defeat Tree of Might Son Goku in Kaioken x10; Goku’s base power was confirmed to be 30,000).

Equipment

EquipmentClothing

Items

• Fruit of the Tree of Might: Fruit bore from the Tree of Might, which Turles has been longing for. Eating from it bolsters his muscle mass and multiplies his power level nearly fifteen times over.
• Seed of Might: A seed that Turles carries around. When planted in fertile soil, it will grow the legendary Tree of Might in an instant.
• Tree of Might: The Tree of Might itself, which can only be planted on a planet brimming with life; like Earth. It sucks the life out of the planet it is planted on in order to sustain itself and bare fruit.

Vehicles

• Turles’ Spaceship: Turles’s spaceship, which he and the Crusher Corps. use to traverse the cosmos.

• Saiyan Armor: Having been a member of the Saiyan Army, Turles was given armor similar to that worn by the Frieza Force. He likely altered it to be more personalized. This armor is unbelievably durable, but also incredibly stretchy; the armor can stretch so much that it fits around Turles when he turns into a Great Ape.
• Scouter: Technology developed by the Tuffle race, but adopted by the Saiyans after the Tuffles were wiped out. This advanced piece of technology can detect the presence of life forms, calculate anyone’s battle power, and can also be used for telecommunication.

Notable Techniques

• Flight: With a mastery of Ki control, Turles is able to fly at incredibly high speeds.
• Ki Blast: Using Ki, Turles can concentrate it into a ball that he uses as a projectile attack.
• Kill Driver: Turles forms a large electric ring of ki that he launches at his opponent, and explodes on contact.
  • Hyper Kill Driver: A more powerful version of the Kill Driver.
• Sudden Storm: A barrage of purple ki blasts blast out of Turles’ palm, which home in on the foe like missiles.
• Force Explosion: A large ki blast that Turles forms and throws with one hand, that results in a massive explosion.
• Meteor Break: Turles launches an opponent into the air before smacking them down towards the ground. Before they land, he appears beneath them and knees them in the stomach, and then smashes them back into the ground. He finishes by stomping on their head and blasting them with a purple ki blast.
• Power Ball: Turles forms a large ball of concentrated Blutz Wave energy, which he throws into the air as a sort of artificial moon. This sparks his transformation into a Great Ape.

Other

Standard Tactics: Turles will employ hand to hand combat along with ki attacks. If he is pressured he will take a bite from the fruit of the tree of might.

Weaknesses

• Standard Ki Weaknesses: Ki users that do not have sufficient training over their emotions put their power within a mental lock, thus affects to their emotions can seriously limit their powers, their emotions can also have them instinctively block using the full power of their attacks out of fear of the destruction along with lack of confidence in themselves. If a Ki user is inflicted with any kind of status, disease, or poison, powering up or transforming will put further strain on the body and can speed up the process of poison. Users of Ki Sensing cannot sense beings that invisible, even if the character is in front of them attacking them, they have a hard time countering them due to being invisible. Users of Ki Sensing also have a harder time sensing the true being using illusions, requiring them to focus in on energy fields to see who is moving and who is casting the illusion. Due to the nature of ki draining stamina and energy, Dragon Ball characters ki usage requires them to usually use their higher levels of energy in short bursts, using a large amount of ki overtime can greatly weaken them to the point that characters far lower then them can actually harm them with attacks. Taking large amounts of damage can greatly deplete a ki users attacks, making it where attacks that would otherwise kill massively weakened characters, only pushes them back. Ki users cannot put all of their ki and strength into an attack if parts of their body are broken/injured, they also lose half of their chi if something like one of their arms are badly injured or broken.Ki users that are able to ki sense cannot do it when their guard is dropped, such as when Vegeta was able to sneak attack Son Goku during the end of their fight in the Buu Saga. Despite some ki users being able to reach blasts that can destroy planets through charged attacks or techniques, they have not shown to be able to tank such blasts themselves, with attacks that have destroyed several planets in the series always killing the character. Even characters such as Majin Buu's body cannot withstand the energy of a planet exploding. Using ki volley attacks come with the caveat of their aim being rather poor, making it harder to hit moving targets. If ki users are at all possessed, even by accident, their true self will be sleeping within, with the possessor needing to awaken them. Even if awoken, they are immobilized and unable to move without the possessor giving them the ability to, even with them wanting to wake up, they cannot do it. Specific waves can can suppress a ki users power, and put their consciousness to sleep. If Ki users stamina is broken, they will unable to be able to continue fighting for a short while, this will also cancel out any ki attack they were attempting to use, including ultimate's, this also adds on that ki users guards are down while charging ultimate attacks. Their stamina can also be broken if a character moves far too fast and surprise attacks them while they're charging their ki. Ki Users can also be grabbed out of charging their attacks. When ki users radiate their Ki at its highest, their body is also freed the most, making them open to attacks and making them easy to possess.
• Unique Weaknesses: Turles is extremely overconfident in his own abilities and looks down upon others, which usually leads to his downfall.

Codex Statistics Questions

Q: What about the planetary feats in Dragon Ball?

A: Planetary feats are normally done through their strongest charged blast, where they can gather ki to shoot out blast far beyond what the character is normally capable of, with blasts capable of seriously damaging/destroying the Earth along with completely obliterating the opponent, though they themselves are never capable of leaving this unscathed.

ExamplesNon-Planetary Showings

Frieza throws a destroy the planet death ball attack but it doesn't destroy the planet. Goku then interestingly notes the reason the planet didn't blow up is because Frieza was too scared of getting caught in the blast . Vegeta's final flash is noted it's going to destroy the planet and Perfect Cell, who is beyond Vegeta, couldn't tank the blast and had to dodge it last second or it would've killed him. Goku's kamehameha was going to destroy the earth and Cell cannot tank this blast, needing to regenerate. Semi-Perfect Cell explosion was consistently noted it was going to destroy the planet and Gohan and it killed Goku. Ultimate Gohan dies to an attack that destroys the earth, his guard was up too since this was when he was fighting Super Buu. Kid Buu shoots a blast trying to destroy the planet, with Vegeta noting he's going to take himself out with it if he lets it off. In Dragon Ball GT, Great Ape Baby Vegeta shoots a super galick gun that he claims will destroy Earth, when Goku is hit by it, he is knocked out to the point that he can't move for a good while, Elder Kai and Shin later state that Baby is going to shoot another blast that will destroy the planet on, greatly injuring Baby if he's caught in the Blast and will kill everyone on the planet if done. Frieza destroyed the entire earth, killing Vegeta in the process. In the Dragon Ball Super Manga, Gohan tells Goku that he doesn't need to hold anything back and can go all out because anything that happens to the Earth can be restored with Dende and the Dragon Balls. Yet, none of Goku's all out attacks destroy the planet but just heavily causes shockwaves around it. Semi-Perfect Cell unleashes a several blast that destroys several islands Android 16 notes that the attacks are just strong enough to not kill Android 18.

In the fight of Trunks vs. Mecha Frieza, who is far stronger than his final form, Mecha Frieza immediately goes for his strongest attack, the Supernova. In the original Z anime King Kai even states this is ten times stronger than the power he used on Namek:

• DBZ Kai Version.
• Original DBZ Anime Version. The attack is directly noted that it could destroy the planet, but doesn't because Trunks catches it, when Mecha Frieza proceeds to detonate it, the explosion is massive but the planet is still intact, implying Frieza must target the core in order to destroy the planet.
