Best chapter yet! That was incredibly intense! Nicely done! You are getting great at this,I hope to see more Sleepless Knights soon!

I'm looking forward to reading more! I wanna read more. I want to know if they figure out that Android 17 was the one to kill Krillin. The idea of hiding the Dragon Balls in places relevant to Goku is ingenious, honestly.

Is this whole 17/Krillin episode going to replace the three month waiting period before the Satan Games, I assume?

I want to see more of Hirudegarn-centered stuff. We're 24k in with minimal information on Hoi, Hirudegarn, and Tapion. Well, good chapter. I hope this gets continued relatively soon.

Hercule is smart for letting three months pass, but Bulma is even smarter for excluding Vegeta from the competition.

Hercule won't have Piccolo on his side, but I think Yamcha, Tien, Krillin, Chiaotzu, and some fifth party will do nicely to make things interesting.

I wonder who Saiyaman will choose to side with? Harriman cronies? Tapion? Could he get Piccolo perhaps since Piccolo has a reputation as being evil?

The Hercule sensei thing is beginning to really intrigue me. I've got literally no clue who it could be that Hercule is taking lessons from. This is really mysterious...

Nice chapter.

I highly doubt the mystery voice is Saiyaman; why would he thoroughly expose himself like that? I don't really know who I think it is but I somehow have no idea.

I liked the Piccolo/Vegeta/Gohan sequence, although I'm a little surprised nobody else caught the flare of Gohan's ki. Krillin? Yamcha? Tien? Anyone?

The Videl sequence made me a tad bit sad but overall worked well.

Nice job.

So Hercule is just less than three times as strong as Videl, eh? Makes moderate sense. Piccolo and Vegeta far outclass Gohan, which I expected. I also kind of want to see if the rest of the Z-fighters realize that Gohan is actually maxed out at that power level.

I'm happy Bulma cussed out Videl the way she did and that they blackmailed Videl into doing their bidding. Nice there.

This Satan Games spectacle should be interesting. Can't wait until they get started. Perhaps we'll get more information on the guy chasing the Z fighters soon and maybe a Tapion reappearance at some point?

At this point, the Saiyaman/Videl interactions make me pretty happy.

Good chapter.

Well, guess I was right XD Gohan needs to stay awake to prevent Hirudegarn from being released and Tapion is searching for the solution. Vegeta's little demonstration was fascinating.

Saiyaman wearing the Piccolo Daimo (spelling?) insignia will be cool next chapter.

I kinda forgot Bulma had healing tanks but that works out nicely. Everything about this story screams mystery and intricate plot, including Hirudegarn being released much earlier than in canon.

Nice chapter. Can't wait to see what Bulma wants.

Well, Hoi with Hirudegarn needs to be one of these guys behind the scenes. I must imagine that Tao or someone of that ilk except much stronger with more governing power is the guy out to take down the Z-fighters. Is it perhaps a Z-fighter training Hercule? Roshi perhaps? I wouldn't be surprised at all if Roshi were training Hercule to take down Gohan/Saiyaman...

I don't think Videl's plan to take down Saiyaman via Vegeta is going to work considering Vegeta knows Gohan and won't concern himself with remedial tasks such as this. We shall see, however, if Vegeta proves me wrong.

Great chapter. Lots of plots occurring simultaneously.

This chapter was the best so far. I was afraid both Bulma and Vegeta were going to hide the fact they knew Saiyaman on a personal level. Is Bulma aware of whatever Gohan's situation is? Or is she not really in the know regarding why he's become a super-villain?

Vegeta handling Videl so easily should throw a wrench in Videl's idea that she's the third strongest in the world. Now she'll be questioning exactly /why/ Vegeta doesn't stop Saiyaman, but she might realize eventually Vegeta knows his intentions aren't destructive and doesn't want to step in.

This keeps getting more interesting, keep up the good work!

Judging from the title, and the music box, ima guess that Gohan can't sleep but still needs to be a guardian angel and commit crimes to stop Hirudegarn from being launched.

If he's only told Piccolo and Vegeta...then Bulma, Dende, and Chi Chi don't know? I can't imagine a mother knowing her son has become a super-powered villain and not knowing the rationale behind his actions.

This is an intriguing concept thus far; I wonder if the DNA search will turn up any meaningful results? It's worth the thought.

Nice chapter.

This unique Gohan is a villain? Not a take I think I've seen before. Ever. Will be interesting to see what, exactly, led Gohan down this path. Obviously it'll have to do with the music box he broke. I kinda really badly want to know what happened.

If Gohan and Videl are to become friendly, this is one hell of a way for them to learn of one another. Why would Videl even attempt to fight him? Where's Hercule, anyway? With the Delivery Boy on the loose I have to imagine Hercule would be a bit different.

Good chapter. The fight scene was well done.

All right. So, I'm thinking the music box is Hirudegarn and the gang Videl speaks of is 'H' either for Hoi or Hirudegarn, right? Should make things interesting if I'm right. Of course, I could be wrong lol.

Nice first chapter. Didn't notice any grammar issues, Gohan seems in-character and realistic, and I enjoyed the portrayals of Sharpner and Erasa for sure.

I assume they're in early High School, right? If Gohan's 15, that makes them 14/15ish, so freshman or sophomore year of High School-ish.

This unbreakable music box was a little bit of a surprise, but Gohan going to high levels to take it down came as more of a shock.

Nice concept, interested to see where you take it.

Interesting story and truly unique I like the twist of Gohan having to play the bad guy in order to keep the world safe and I'm guessing the evil being helping Hercule is probably that little alien priest dude (I can only really faintly remember the movie but I remember a small weak guy who was bent on releasing Hirudegarn) and his plan is for Hercule either weaken Gohan enough or to kill him so Hirudegarn is released. In a way this is great training for Gohan solely having to rely on his skill and technique rather than his power (even tho compared to normal humans is still immense but weakening).

Perhaps he'll be at a whole new level when he's able to get his full power back as his Saiyan genes that allow him to get stronger after taking a beating will kick in and would have accumulated from all the hits not to mention he kind of is in a near death state by his standards with his low power.

Anyway great work and really interested in how this story will continue to play out and I can't believe Krillin is dead poor poor Krillin, until the next one.

Interesting story

I'm definitely looking forward to reading more. About your earlier chapters-even though there were grammatical problems, I had no problems reading through it because you structured it well. I could more or less know what was going on. And now this chapter is a huge improvement from your earlier ones, kudos Keep up the great work.

Great job, its good to see this updated again! It is a shame Krillin died, is he really gone for good? I really liked him and thought he was going to play a major part in this! I guess not, oh well. Good job and I hope you continue soon!
