"Hey Goten, how about we fight again, but you don't use your superpowers?"
"I mean, we can, but what's the point?"
"That's true!"
At noon, Trunks returned home and asked Vegeta for a way to counter superpowers.
"Superpowers?"
"Goten suddenly gained the superpower to control people, and now even I can't beat him. Dad, do you have any way for me to counter his superpowers?"
"Yes!"
"You just need to train properly and become far stronger than him. In the face of absolute strength, any superpower is useless!"
"Then… Dad, is there any other way?"
"No!"
Vegeta said angrily.
Trunks losing to Son Goten had already made him unhappy, and to top it off, Trunks was unwilling to train and improve his strength.
"Trunks, starting today, you'll train with me until you can defeat Son Goten!"
"Dad!"
Trunks was a bit reluctant upon hearing this.
"If you don't want to, I'll have Bulma cut your allowance in half!"
"Dad!"
"Alright, it's decided!"
In the afternoon.
Son Goten, bored, created some Mafuba bottles like the ones Master Roshi used in the Tournament of Power.
However, he was missing the sealing talismans.
The sealing talismans were the most crucial part of using Mafuba. Without them, even if the opponent was sealed into the bottle, they couldn't be contained.
Since the sealing talismans couldn't be created out of thin air, Son Goten had to buy some yellow paper and draw the talismans himself.
But he didn't need Mafuba right now, so he wasn't in a hurry. He could go to West City to buy some when he had time.
After creating the Mafuba bottles, Son Goten used Creation to make several orange-red martial arts uniforms and shoes. This would make it convenient for him to change whenever he trained in the future.
After finishing the clothes and shoes, Son Goten created some heavy training objects and weighted clothing, and then began his training.
The next morning.
Son Goten went to Bulma's house to play with Trunks and learned that Trunks had been forced into training.
Son Goten had no choice but to return home.
Back home, Son Goten, having nothing else to do, went to the back mountain to train.
There were only a little over four months left until Majin Buu appeared, so he had to get stronger as quickly as possible to reach a level where he could defeat Majin Buu.
His current strength had already reached Super Saiyan 2. His next goal was to defeat Son Gohan and Son Goku to obtain the Super Saiyan 3 Advancement Card and the Super Saiyan God Advancement Card.
However, Son Goku was in the Underworld, so he needed to find a way to revive him. Back then, after Son Gohan defeated Cell, Gohan and his group could have revived Son Goku, but Son Goku himself refused to be revived.
Time flew by, and a month passed in the blink of an eye.
During this month, Son Goten spent most of his time training.
On the back mountain of Son Goku's house.
Son Goten was currently floating in the air in a cross-legged position, meditating and training.
A figure appeared from a distance and walked over.
This person was Son Gohan.
Son Goten seemed to sense Son Gohan's arrival and opened his eyes.
"Brother!"
Son Gohan smiled and nodded.
"Goten, have you been training this whole month?"
"Yeah!"
"Then your strength must have improved a lot, right?"
"No, just a tiny bit!"
"That's okay, improving a little bit in a month is also normal!"
Gohan said with a smile.
"Brother, why are you here?"
"I haven't trained in a while either, so I wanted to come and train!"
"I see. Is it okay with your studies?"
"It's fine. Actually, I'm already previewing the books for my third year of high school!"
"Pre... previewing?"
Goten was stunned.
I guess I don't understand the world of geniuses.
"Yeah, for math, I've already previewed up to college level!"
"..."
"By the way, Goten, that training you were doing just now, it was Uncle Piccolo's meditation training, wasn't it?"
Goten nodded.
"Uncle Piccolo's meditation training is good, but physical training is still more suitable for us Saiyans!"
Goten didn't say anything after hearing this.
In the latest arc of Dragon Ball Super, Vegeta pointed out that their strength was actually close to Jiren's, but Jiren's control over his body far surpassed theirs, a point Whis also acknowledged.
This meant that both spirit and body were important for strengthening one's power.
Seeing this, Gohan immediately began to train.
The morning passed quickly, and it was almost noon.
Both Goten and Gohan were sweating profusely from their training.
Gohan figured he'd be called to study by Chi-Chi again in the afternoon, so he said to Goten.
"Goten, how about we spar again?"
"Spar?"
"Yeah, because I worked hard to get this half-day off from Mom!"
"Okay then!"
After speaking, both of them took a step back simultaneously.
"So Goten, shall we begin?"
"Mm!"
Goten nodded.
Seeing this, Gohan immediately charged at Goten.
Soon, Gohan was in front of Goten, thrusting his fists forward with all his might.
Goten also raised his fists and met Gohan's blows.
Bang bang bang!!
Their fists flew like the wind, striking each other with force.
After fighting for a while, Gohan threw a horizontal kick at Goten.
Goten instinctively blocked with his right hand, and Gohan's right fist took the opportunity to punch Goten in the face, knocking him back.
Goten clenched his fists tightly, and an incredibly powerful aura suddenly erupted from his body.
"Ha!"
With a loud shout, Goten transformed into a Super Saiyan.
"Super Saiyan!"
Gohan said, and he also transformed into a Super Saiyan.
Bang!!
Goten's body emitted a large amount of golden energy as he charged at Gohan.
Gohan also charged at Goten.
"Whoosh..."
Bang! Bang! Bang!!
Soon, the two arrived in front of each other at the same time, and began to fight fiercely.
Dust immediately kicked up all around them.
BOOM!!
With a violent explosion, both of them conjured golden energy blasts in their hands and clashed them together.
A dazzling, intense light erupted from the colliding energy waves.
The moment the explosion occurred, both of them retreated hundreds of meters back.
"You've got some moves, Goten! I didn't expect your power to become this great in just one month!"
Goten nodded slightly.
Then, the two figures flashed, instantly appearing in mid-air and continuing their battle.
"Whoosh..."
Bang! Bang! Bang!!
They rapidly moved through the air, attacking each other.
Because their movement speed was so fast, from a distance, it looked like ripples were appearing in the sky.
