~ Elec in Chapter 68 of the Dragon Ball Super manga. |
Elec is the main antagonist of the Granolah the Survivor Saga of the 2015 Japanese martial arts fantasy manga series Dragon Ball Super.
He is the leader of the Heeter Force and Frieza's former business partner and rival. Elec is the one who orchestrated the extinction of the Cerealian race and framed Frieza, Bardock and the Saiyans for it and the death of Muezli, Granolah's mother. He is also Granolah's former boss and arch-nemesis.
Appearance[]
Like his siblings, Elec belonged to an unidentified humanoid alien race characterized by turquoise skin, pointed ears, dark cyan marks under the eyes, and light purple hair. Elec wears a long red jacket with golden lines, a white scarf in his neck, a blue sash around his waist, white pants, two blue boots with a white sole and a gold buckle on each and the Heeters' symbol on the left side of his jacket.
Personality[]
Elec is a strong believer in the power of absolute knowledge and intel, as he considers it greater than military might. He is very intelligent as he knows that the Dragon Balls were responsible for Frieza's resurrection and Granolah's new strength. Elec is also extremely manipulative and charismatic as he was clever in deceiving Granolah for many years into working for him and convinced him that Frieza and the Saiyans were responsible for his mother's death. He even schemed to have Goku, Vegeta and Granolah eliminate each other as he knows they are threats to him and his families' plans. Elec is highly sadistic and cold as he openly mocks Granolah on the death of his mother, while telling him that he could die like she did before shooting him in the back and nearly killing him.
Despite what he claims, Elec is very narcissistic, cruel and uncaring as he cares for absolutely no one but himself and shows no love or care for his family (especially Gas) and is abusive towards them both verbally and mentally and even physical when his plans start failing. Elec only sees his family as pawns and is willing to sacrifice them to achieve his goals of universal domination. He also doesn't care about his business partner Frieza and would scheme behind his back to one day overthrow him and take his place as supreme ruler of the universe.
Synopsis[]
Background[]
50 years ago, Elec orchestrated the extinction of the Cerealian race on Planet Cereal by making a deal with the Saiyans and Frieza Force to invade it. After the plan was successful, Elec and his siblings arrive on Planet Cereal to make preparations to sell it to the Sugarians and plot to eliminate and overthrow Frieza in the future when the time is right.
However, Elec and the other Heeters learn that a Namekian called Monaito along with two Cerealian survivors (Muezli and her son Granolah) are still alive but are at the mercy and protection of Bardock, who bargains to use Monaito. Elec finds their finding place due to Granolah's screaming and he shoots Muezli with his ray gun and kills her. Bardock witnessed this and fires back and forces the Heeters to make way for a contingency as Frieza himself is coming.
Elec orders his brother Gas to kill Bardock and the other two witnesses. Later, Elec notices a strange glow from the dragon Toronbo, as Elec goes to investigate it only to find that Gas had been defeated by Bardock. Exhausted from the battle, Bardock is unable to get to his feet and Elec shoots him through the arm where he stumbles off a cliff and into the forest below, although not before heavily hinting at the plans Frieza has in store for him and the Saiyans. Elec is then contacted by Macki who informs him of Frieza's arrival. For good measures, Elec fires several bullets in the forest, hoping to hit Bardock before stopping. Elec takes his battered brother and leaves the area.
Later on, Elec and the Heeters were able to sell the planet Cereal to the Sugarians. Several years later, he and Gas returned to Cereal, where they were greeted with hostility by Monaito. The duo note on how Monaito's Cerealian ward Granolah was getting stronger and Elec also notes on how the Namekian elder did not tell Granolah that he killed his mother. However, this causes Elec to blackmail Monaito into letting him recruit Granolah and have him join his ranks in the Heeter Force as a bounty hunter. As Elec warns Monaito that he will kill him if he tells Granolah the truth about his mother's fate.
Granolah the Survivor Saga[]
In the present day, Elec is seen in his base of operations, sitting on his throne and pleased to see Granolah arriving with Seventhree. After having Oil confirm the bounty, he congratulates Granolah on Seventhree's capture and has Maki give him his reward. When Elec is lecturing Granolah on the power of intel, he tells him that due to Frieza's resurrection, people are too scared to do business with the Heeters and because of that, Granolah doesn't have another assignment. When Granolah desperately asks Elec for Frieza's location, he tells him not to bother, as Frieza had come back far stronger than before, leading to Granolah marching up to his throne before Gas pins him down. Smirking evilly, Elec chastises Granolah for his arrogance, telling him to "chill out" but promising to lend him help due to a shared dislike of the Frieza Force.
After Granolah leaves, Elec reveals to his siblings that he believes the power Granolah had gained had gotten to his head, noting it could be dangerous if he ended up surpassing Gas, the pride and joy of the family. In order to safely eliminate Granolah, Elec mentioned Frieza's revival to him in order to string things along and have Frieza "ice the guy" for them. Setting aside those thoughts, he expresses his excitement to examine the data within Seventhree and remarks that they'll soon have the location of the ultimate info broker, Zuno.
When going through Seventhree's memory banks, they discover Zuno's location and the existence of the Dragon Balls. It didn't take long for Elec to realize that these were used to resurrect Frieza and Gas brought up the Namekians creating them and how a tribe lived on Planet Cereal. Elec also told his siblings that only one survivor lives who now happens to live with Granolah.
Much time later, Elec and his siblings host a party before it is interrupted by Granolah's return while demanding to know where Frieza is. Unfazed, Elec reminds him that he is nowhere close to Frieza's level. Irritated, Granolah claims he is now the strongest in the universe, but Elec waves him off and has Oil to try to throw him out but is surprised when Granolah uses a single tap to send Oil flying into a wall. Having now caught Elec's attention, Granolah is forced to fight Oil, but easily outmaneuvers and pummels the brute, sending him crashing through the base floor and disintegrating said chunk of floor with ease when Oil hurls it at him. He is then engaged by Macki, effortlessly dodging her ki claws before ensnaring her wrists with his scarf and slamming her into the floor before Gas cuts her free. Before Granolah can fight Gas, Elec stops the battle, saying Gas has no need to get involved.
Elec asks Granolah of his improvement, but the latter is unwilling to explain his newfound power to Elec, though Elec presses further, withholding the information about Frieza's whereabouts and claiming that if Granolah isn't the real deal and he is beaten by Frieza, the Heeters would have targets on their backs. After Granolah reveals how he used the Cerealian Dragon Balls, Elec confirms his suspicions about the planet having such items and their connection to the power up Granolah has. He then tells him that they actually don't exactly know where Frieza's location is, but that they'll get back to him and he should cool his head while he waits. Elec is surprised when Granolah reveals his life-reducing condition and that he only has 3 years left on him, taken back by the depths of his desire for revenge. With nothing else he can currently gain from them, Granolah leaves the Heeters be and takes off in his ship. At dinner, Elec and the othe Heeters discuss the new scheme to get rid of Granolah. Elec decides to pit Granolah against the Saiyans Goku and Vegeta, due to his grudge against the tribe.
Much later, Elec heads to Cereal with Gas in order to meet Macki and Oil, who have obtained the Dragon Radar and set up Goku and Vegeta to fight Granolah.
Macki tells Elec and that Granolah and the Saiyans have stopped fighting. Elec questions the sudden change and was annoyed when Macki revealed that it was Monaito meddling. He agrees to Gas requesting to simply kill them all, with both parties exhausted from their conflict. Elec decides to go summon the dragon while they handle the situation. Macki hands him the radar and spell needed; Elec tells Gas that he will make sure his wish fulfilled though his brother states he is fine the way he is. However, Elec states their plans depend on Gas who declares that he knows before he and Macki fly off.
After retrieving the last Dragon Ball, Elec summoned Toronbo, being amazed to see an actual wish granting Dragon. Seizing the moment, Elec wishes for Gas to be the strongest in the universe. However, he sacrificed the lifespan of his brother to make the wish successful. Very soon, Gas and Macki reach their foes, leading to him overwhelming them. However, Granolah's superior skills in battle eventually allows him to land a devastating blow on Gas who lays on the floor wounded.
Elec appears and explains to the confused Macki, that Gas is indeed the strongest in the Universe and by a large margin at that. Ripping off Gas's necklace, he tells him there's no point in being the strongest if all of his power is being sealed away. Gas begins to transform as his instincts take over and Elec tells him to endure it. After Gas goes on a rampage, Elec tells his brother not to forget his promise and Gas eventually regains his senses after being reminded of his previous loss to Bardock and undergoes an awakening. Pleased by the sight, Elec tells him to annihilate anyone who stands in their way.
As Gas prepares to attack the Saiyans, Elec gloats on this before Granolah sneaks up on him, seeking revenge for his mother and planet. However, Gas is able to teleport him out of harm's way before the blow lands. When Granolah attempts to blast Elec with a powerful attack, Gas once more appears to intervene, breaking Granolah's arms. Heavily injured, Elec appears behind Granolah and thanks him for all the jobs that he did for them, telling him as a reward he could die like his mother before shooting him in the back, sending him falling into the lake. Elec notes to Gas on stealing the kill but Gas was unconcerned because Granolah was nothing to him now. Gas thanks him for the wish and Elec tells him not to sweat it but does tell Gas to eliminate their remaining enemies, since they know too much.
When Goku and Gas begin to battle across the Universe, Elec orders Oil to get a lock on Gas's position who locates him in the Galactic Prison. Putting aside his little brother's fight for the time being, he tells Oil and Macki to mop up the remaining half dead stragglers first, but Goku arrives back on Cereal first. Realizing that they are no match for the Saiyan, Elec orders a retreat while they wait for Gas to return to them.
Shortly afterwards when Gas does arrive and confronts the Saiyans once more, Elec and his siblings watch the battle from aboard their ship nearby. When Gas is taken down by Goku, Elec approaches him and grabs him by the neck. He angrily asks Gas why he made him the strongest and he answers that it was in order to make the Heeters the greatest organization in the universe as well as to defeat the Saiyans. Elec tells him that the latter is incorrect, and that their true goal is to kill Frieza before insulting his performance in battle. Goku shows up, telling Elec that he does not need to force Gas to fight as he will happily fight him next time, but Elec tells the Saiyan that there will be no next time as Gas powers up further, taking on a severely aged appearance. The battles continue until Granolah arrives and with back up from Goku and Vegeta, they seemingly defeat Gas.
Annoyed, Elec attempts to leave on his spaceship and abandon his siblings, but Gas returns to his feet who looks even worse than before. Elec manically pushes Gas to finish off their enemies until Macki angrily appears before him and urges him to retreat for the time being as it is a battle that they can put off winning. Elec cruelly slaps his sister aside, claiming there will be no next time as Gas' life span is about to run out as making him the strongest in the universe meant sacrificing most of his brother's entire life. This revelation shocks everyone (especially Gas) and Macki and Oil are utterly disgusted by Elec's vile actions and turn against him, but Elec dosen't care as he once again angrily pushes Gas to hurry up and finish everyone off quickly before Frieza shows up.
However, Frieza arrives and proceeds to effortlessly kill Gas before turning to Elec and asking what business he had with him. Elec who is now nervous tries to explain that it was a mistake, but Frieza sees through his lie and realizes that he called him here so he that Gas would kill him. After Frieza tells Elec that he knows of his treacherous nature and that he is the weakest among his family, Elec arrogantly throws a punch at him only for it to be stopped with ease. Frieza then blasts Elec in the face and kills him for his actions, thus avenging Muezli and the Cerealian race and finally giving Granolah and Monaito peace at long last.
