Kikono

Kikono (キコノ) is a character in the *Dragon Ball* series, first appearing in the movie *Dragon Ball Super: Broly*. He is a veteran scientist in Frieza's Force, having served under Frieza since the time of King Cold. Kikono possesses exceptional scientific capabilities, inventing many of Frieza's Force's military equipment, including scouters, battle armor, and spaceships. Despite being a scientist, Kikono participates in many of Frieza's Force's operations, such as investigating the legends of the Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan God. He ultimately concludes that these are merely legends. Although he has no compassion for Saiyans, he objectively evaluates their fighting potential. In *Dragon Ball Super: Broly*, Kikono is tasked by Frieza to investigate the Dragon Balls, and is ultimately shocked to learn that Frieza's wish is to make himself 5 centimeters taller. Kikono serves as an advisor and technical support within Frieza's Force, making him a key figure behind the scenes.
