"Vegeta Makes His Appearance" is the three hundred and forty-third chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1991 #43 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.
Summary
Everyone is shocked to see Vegeta, and Piccolo says that Vegeta got in the way to keep him from helping Goku earlier; he was only pretending to be hurt, saying there is no way an attack of that caliber could have defeated him. Vegeta says he saw everything. He tells Kakarrot he was stupid for turning Super Saiyan even though he knew his body was in danger. It only sped up the heart disease's effects. He then tells Kakarrot his objective will be him to the end, and kicks Goku across the ground. Piccolo catches him. Vegeta tells someone to take him home and give him his medicine. Gohan volunteers, but then Yamcha steps in and regretfully says he probably would not be much help here. Piccolo says it is like a virus, so Yamcha might want to take some medicine too in case it spreads. Then Yamcha flies off with Goku over his shoulder.
No. 20 tells No. 19 that he does not have to follow them, for now these noisy flies need to be taken care of. It has gotten interesting with the addition of Vegeta. Kuririn then wonders, "Wouldn't it be better if we fled for the moment? I mean... The guy from the future said without Goku, all of us, even Vegeta, get killed. The circumstances are a bit different, but isn't it still pretty much the same?" Gohan says if they run away, they will just do more of what they did to that city. Kuririn realizes they will have to hold on until Goku gets healed, but Piccolo says things are not exactly like what that boy said, since the time Goku's disease surfaced was considerably off. Piccolo figures his coming back in time may have subtly changed history. No. 19 asks if he can take care of Vegeta. No. 20 thinks he is being greedy after all the energy he absorbed from Goku, but gives him the okay. No. 20 decides to take care of the other four though. Vegeta says he has been watching everything, and knows how they absorb energy from the palms of their hands, so he will just have to be sure and avoid that.
No. 19 says Vegeta may have seen the situation, but he has not heard the details — they already know all of Vegeta's fighting techniques. Vegeta says they looked really surprised to see Kakarrot as a Super Saiyan, so he figures their data does not include anything from the fight with Freeza up to the present. Then he wants to know if artificial humans feel fear, and then suddenly transforms into a Super Saiyan. Everyone is shocked, and Kuririn says he thought you needed a calm heart to become a Super Saiyan. "My heart was calm... Calm and pure... Pure evil, that is... I wished for nothing but to get strong... And so, I repeatedly trained intensely... Then, I realized my own limits... With my anger at myself, I suddenly awoke...as a Super Saiyan!!! I was overcome with joy... At last, the time has come when I have returned to being the Saiyan prince who has surpassed Kakarrot..."
No. 20 thinks he will just end up like Son Goku did, and No. 19 chuckles, then charges at Vegeta. He hits Vegeta in the face with a hard punch, knocking Vegeta back a bit, but not off his feet. "So that's your level... I didn't mention it, but... When I become a Super Saiyan, I grow even more brutal... And I get a little excited... You don't feel pain, do you? How lucky." Vegeta kicks No. 19 in the stomach, elbows him in the face, and then kicks him across the ground.
