Super Saiyan Third Grade Advancement Card

Boom!!

A moment later, Son Goten sent Gohan crashing heavily to the ground with a flying kick.

The ground immediately erupted in a cloud of dust.

When the dust settled, Gohan slowly climbed up from the ground and looked at Son Goten in the sky.

This was what he called improving his strength by just a little?

Goten got full marks for showing off.

Gohan looked at the sky. It was already nearly noon, so he decided to stop holding back and use his full strength to defeat Son Goten.

With that thought, Gohan clenched both fists, and an incomparably shocking aura burst from his body, rapidly rising.

The ground around him immediately began to shake violently under the influence of Gohan's aura.

Large amounts of sand and stone were swept into the air by the aura emanating from Gohan's body.

"Ah!"

Gohan let out a loud roar, and his aura suddenly surged upward.

Immediately afterward, the hair on Gohan's head stood even more upright. The flame-like aura around him turned into a blazing, fire-spewing aura, while lightning crackled around his body.

This was Super Saiyan 2.

Bang!!

Once his transformation was complete, Gohan immediately released his aura.

Kami's Lookout.

Piccolo, who was meditating, immediately opened his eyes upon sensing Gohan's powerful aura.

"Dende, did something happen? Why is Gohan suddenly releasing such a powerful aura?"

"No, Gohan and Goten are sparring!"

"Sparring? Does that mean Gohan transformed into a Super Saiyan and still couldn't defeat Goten?"

Dende nodded.

After hearing that, Piccolo clenched his teeth, feeling somewhat jealous.

Back then, he had also been the King Piccolo who made people tremble in fear.

Now, Son Goku and the others had surpassed him one after another. If he said he wasn't jealous, that would definitely be a lie.

West City, Bulma's home.

Vegeta also sensed Gohan's aura, but he didn't pay it any attention, because his current strength had long since surpassed Gohan's.

Mount Paozu.

Son Goten looked at the transformed Gohan and revealed a faint smile.

"Super Saiyan 2? In that case, I'll transform into Super Saiyan 2 as well!"

"Transform into Super Saiyan 2?"

Gohan was startled.

As soon as the words fell, Son Goten clenched both fists, and an incomparably shocking aura burst from his body, rapidly rising.

"Ah!"

With a tremendous roar, Son Goten transformed into Super Saiyan 2.

"Su... Super Saiyan 2!"

Gohan was shocked.

Son Goten had actually mastered Super Saiyan 2 just like him.

Back then, even he had only mastered Super Saiyan 2 at the age of ten.

And that was after more than a year of grueling training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

Counting the time spent in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, he had actually been eleven.

But how old was Son Goten?

Seven! At seven years old, he could already transform into Super Saiyan 2.

He could no longer imagine just what level Son Goten's strength would reach if he continued training.

Kami's Lookout.

Piccolo immediately revealed a look of shock as he watched Son Goten transform into Super Saiyan 2.

So that was why he hadn't been able to defeat Son Goten earlier. Son Goten's strength had long since far surpassed his own.

West City, Bulma's home.

Vegeta, who was still training in the gravity chamber, immediately revealed a look of surprise after sensing Son Goten's aura.

"Trunks, is this Goten's aura?"

"It... it seems like it, but how did his aura become so powerful? Did he go somewhere for special training?"

"Goten's aura is already stronger than Gohan's!"

"Goten's aura is stronger than Brother Gohan's?"

Vegeta nodded.

"Ever since Gohan defeated Cell, that kid hasn't trained at all. He's far weaker now than he was back then!"

"Is that so!"

Vegeta nodded.

"So, Trunks, don't you dare follow Gohan's example!"

For a moment, Trunks didn't know what to say.

Because he didn't particularly enjoy the dull life of training.

Thinking of that, Trunks suddenly felt a little "resentful" toward Son Goten.

If it hadn't been for him, Vegeta wouldn't have dragged him here to train.

Mount Paozu.

After being shocked for a while, Gohan asked Son Goten in the sky.

"Goten, when did you master Super Saiyan 2?"

"Three days ago!"

"Is that so!"

"Then, Brother, shall we continue fighting?"

"Oh... okay!"

Seeing this, Son Goten raised his left hand and used psychic powers to immobilize Gohan.

"M-my body won't move!"

Gohan was startled.

The next second, Son Goten appeared before Gohan and kicked him flying.

With a thunderous boom, Gohan shot like a beam of light and crashed heavily into the mountain behind him.

The mountain immediately crumbled, sending large amounts of sand and stone flying.

When the dust settled, Gohan immediately climbed out of the mountain.

"Goten, what was that just now? Why couldn't my body move all of a sudden?"

"That was a controlling psychic power!"

"A controlling psychic power?"

"Yeah, it's a psychic power that I somehow suddenly gained a month ago!"

Psychic powers were unscientific and had an extremely, extremely low chance of appearing.

So even though Gohan had some doubts, he could only choose to believe him.

Because even the technology of the Dragon Ball world couldn't completely figure out why some people developed psychic powers.

"Is that so!"

As Gohan spoke, his figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived before Son Goten and launched an attack.

"Whoosh..."

Son Goten's figure flashed, instantly appearing several hundred meters behind him as Gohan's right punch missed.

Son Goten raised his left hand and used his psychic powers again, rendering Gohan unable to move.

"M-my body won't move again!"

As Gohan spoke, he desperately tried to break free.

But no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't escape Son Goten's control.

In the end, he could only admit defeat.

"I concede!"

Son Goten nodded and lowered his left hand.

Then, he returned to his normal state.

Seeing this, Gohan also returned to his normal state.

"Ding! Congratulations, Master, for defeating Gohan. You have obtained a Super Saiyan Third Grade Advancement Card, learned Kamehameha... and received 100 Senzu Beans!"

Upon hearing that, Son Goten immediately used the Super Saiyan Third Grade Advancement Card.

Son Goten immediately felt an incomparably powerful force emerge within his body.

Just then, Son Goten suddenly heard Chi-Chi calling out.

"Gohan, Goten, time to eat!"

"Then, Goten, let's go back and eat?"

Son Goten nodded.

On the way back, Gohan spoke with Son Goten, feeling somewhat emotional.

"It would be great if Dad were here. If he saw how strong you've become, he'd definitely be very happy!"
