"Non-believers huh? I might just have to show you." — Frieza in "Fighting Power: One Million?"

Death Storm (ばっ!!!!) is a technique used by Frieza in his second form. Frieza raises his hand and opens it to release a light gray Exploding Wave.

Overview

While easily avoidable, Death Storm causes large scale planetary destruction and a very large tsunami that travels a large radius in all directions. Frieza uses this attack against Gohan, Krillin, Dende, and Vegeta after transforming into his second form, in order to demonstrate his claim that his power level in his second form is over one million after Vegeta expresses disbelief at his claim. They are all knocked back flying up into the air, but manage to survive, though Krillin is slightly injured because a rock had scraped his head. The island on which the attack is performed explodes, leaving only a small island which Frieza remains on.
