Majin Buu's Premature Birth

A gentle breeze blew through the sky, causing Majin Buu's cape to flutter in the wind, giving him a cool appearance.

"How about that? I'm the stronger one, right?"

Majin Buu stood with his hands on his hips, looking incredibly smug.

"My turn."

A brilliant golden light erupted from Son Goku as he instantly ascended to the peak of Super Saiyan 2, teleporting right in front of his opponent.

"Oh? You want to fight me too?"

"Yeah! You're strong, so I've been looking forward to a match with you."

Compared to the battle-hungry Saiyans, Majin Buu wasn't nearly as keen on fighting.

"Not fun, not fun at all. I'm hungry, I want to eat."

Majin Buu was incredibly childish; he'd been forced to fight ever since he woke up, and he hadn't even had a meal yet!

Uh, this left Son Goku at a loss.

"How about this? If you beat me, I'll treat you to a huge feast. How's that?"

As soon as he heard "huge feast," Majin Buu became instantly interested.

"Really?"

"Yeah!"

Son Goku then assumed a fighting stance. Majin Buu grew excited as well, white steam venting from the small holes on his head before he charged toward his opponent.

The two figures immediately clashed, trading punches and kicks in a fierce exchange.

A streak of green light cut across the sky as Gamos landed in the deep crater where Vegeta had been knocked.

Piccolo took out a Senzu Bean and fed it to Vegeta, who was on the verge of death, and the Saiyan quickly revived.

"What's going on? Why has Majin Buu appeared?"

Gamos was quite surprised to see Majin Buu. At this point in time, the Androids hadn't even appeared yet; how had the timeline jumped straight to the Majin Buu arc?

"Tch, who knows how this guy got here? Kakarot and I were having a spar, and we ended up beating a fat guy out of the ground," Vegeta grumbled with a cold snort.

Beating a fat guy out of the ground... that was quite a statement.

"That Majin Buu must have been sealed away. When Son Goku and Vegeta were fighting, a stray energy wave hit the ground and blew open a spaceship," Piccolo explained calmly.

"The ship was blown to pieces, and a giant pink egg was blasted out, which is where this fat guy came from."

The scene at the time had shocked everyone. Sensing Majin Buu's energy, they had all felt they were facing a formidable foe.

However, the opponent's energy had seemed somewhat sluggish, as if he hadn't eaten in three days and nights.

After some questioning, they learned his name was Majin Buu, and that he was incredibly powerful.

Then, Son Goku, that battle-junkie, had tossed him a Senzu Bean, which caused Majin Buu to skip the energy-collection process and revive perfectly.

Vegeta, who had long since grown tired of fighting Son Goku, had challenged him directly, leading to the scene they had just witnessed.

Gamos never imagined things would develop to this extent. With Majin Buu here, the Androids were nothing!

Give him two chocolates, and he could hang a Perfect Cell up and beat him to a pulp.

This plot had gone completely off the rails.

High in the sky, Son Goku was fighting intensely. Majin Buu was mostly just taking hits, yet the punches didn't cause him the slightest bit of damage.

Bang, bang, bang. Son Goku's fists struck the creature's large belly, leaving deep indentations, but the moment Majin Buu took a breath, he instantly recovered.

"Kamehameha!"

Son Goku unleashed his signature move, the blue energy wave piercing straight through Majin Buu's midsection. Majin Buu simply took a breath, and the massive hole in his stomach closed right back up.

"Hey, Gamos! Hurry up and lift this Gravity Magic off us! I'm going up there to give that guy a proper beating!"

Vegeta gritted his teeth. He was the proud Prince of the Saiyans, after all! Being beaten by a man from the future was one thing, and being beaten by a legendary Super Saiyan was another, but now this fat guy had popped out and beaten him too? Who could stand for that?

Watching the man grit his teeth, Gamos found it rather amusing. Looking at Prince Vegeta's aggrieved expression—he'd thought he was a king, only to find a whole crowd of people capable of thrashing him. One had to wonder about the size of the Prince's psychological trauma.

"Alright, right away."

Gamos fired a beam from his finger. A flash of white light flickered over Vegeta, and the Gravity Magic was dispelled.

Feeling a sudden lightness, Vegeta let out a comfortable breath.

"Finally, that damn gravity is gone. Now, this Prince can finally show his true power."

"Kakarot, switch with me!"

Vegeta shot into the sky and fired an energy blast at the pink fatty. Majin Buu couldn't dodge in time, and his head was blown off with a pop.

Just as Vegeta prepared to continue his assault, Son Goku blocked his path.

"This is my fight with him. You can't interfere."

"Are you kidding me? I've been getting pummeled for so long; now that the gravity is lifted, I naturally have to let loose a bit."

Just as the two were still bickering and arguing incessantly, Majin Buu, who had just regrown his head, grew angry as well.

They had promised to take him out for a feast once this fight was over, but it just kept dragging on. The guy he had just beaten into the ground had crawled back out—did they really think he had no temper?

"Damn it, damn it, I'm angry!"

Majin Buu clenched his fists and raised them above his head, gritting his teeth as white steam began to erupt from the holes in his head.

Majin Buu then used Instant Transmission to appear directly beside them, his sandbag-sized fists slamming into their heads.

With a bang, the two were sent flying, and Majin Buu's arms stretched out instantly, slamming them both into a deep crater.

Gamos lifted the Gravity Magic from Son Goku, allowing both of them to fight at full strength.

"Heh heh heh, now you know how strong I am!"

At that moment, two golden figures burst from the smoke, each landing a punch squarely on Majin Buu's stomach.

Majin Buu was sent flying instantly; Son Goku grabbed the antenna on his head with one hand and fired a blast of energy with his right.

Vegeta, not to be outdone, pressed his hands together in a lotus shape before him, a golden energy sphere condensing in his palms while golden lightning crackled around it.

"Final Flash."

Under their fierce assault, Majin Buu, still held by his antenna, was blown to pieces, yet the chunks of flesh writhed and suddenly transformed into over a dozen Majin Buus.

"Damn it, you two are ganging up on me."

An enraged Majin Buu initiated a group-brawl mode, and Son Goku and Vegeta were immediately subjected to a barrage of punches and kicks.

The two could only block helplessly, unable to mount a counterattack. In this moment, they finally experienced the brutal beating of reality.

"Damn it, Kakarot!"

Vegeta roared, his aura exploding as he countered, his right fist smashing into the face of one Majin Buu. He followed up with a sweeping kick to send another to his left flying, then used his left hand to blast a clone in front of him into smithereens.

Son Goku, having been called out, followed suit, using an explosive burst to break through the encirclement.

As the two unleashed their power, the surrounding pink flesh began to writhe, lunging directly toward them.

"Disgusting things."

Vegeta was the first to use Instant Transmission, vanishing from his spot, and Son Goku instantly teleported to the other side as well.

The two then fired blasts simultaneously, unleashing a frantic barrage of Prince Tactics upon the pink flesh.

Dust filled the air, yet Majin Buu's energy did not weaken in the slightest; instead, it grew even stronger.

"Big Bang Attack."

"Kamehameha."

Just as the two intended to unleash their ultimate techniques, Majin Buu's energy at the center of the explosion suddenly vanished, causing the two to stop their movements immediately.

The next moment, Majin Buu appeared behind Vegeta. Before Vegeta could even turn around, he felt his body being clamped by something, and he felt as if he were sinking into a swamp, unable to move.

It turned out that Majin Buu had used his massive stomach to completely envelop Vegeta's lower body, and like someone eating a snack, he continued to swallow the rest of his body upward.

"Can't move now, can you!"

Majin Buu was smug, but the next moment, Son Goku kicked him in the face.

Then, Majin Buu's face began to act like a swamp, swallowing half of Son Goku's body in one go.

With a series of crunching sounds, the two were squeezed by the terrifying force until their bones groaned.

"Vegeta! Use that move."

"Shut up, don't order me around."

Despite his words, the next moment, the two used the same technique simultaneously.

A figure emerged from Son Goku's body—it was identical to him.

The same happened with Vegeta; as the clones detached, the energy of the two originals weakened until it vanished entirely.

Majin Buu then felt the two bodies he had been holding suddenly disappear, followed immediately by two kicks landing on his own body.

"Oh? Is that the Multi-Form Technique? When did they learn that?"

Gamos looked toward Piccolo, who remained expressionless, though Gamos could still detect the surprise in his eyes.

"Ever since they saw you use magic, the two of them decided to learn some strange techniques. This Multi-Form Technique was the first, but I didn't expect them to use it as a 'golden cicada shedding its shell'—it's truly effective!"

According to Tien Shinhan's Four Witches Technique, one can split into four, and each clone is real, possessing one-fourth of the original's power.

But the two just now had only split off half, using the clone as the "real" body while drawing all their original power into it, thus completing the escape.

Vegeta assumed the stance for the Final Flash, and Son Goku squeezed in, placing his hands above and below Vegeta's.

The two fired their energy with all four hands, unleashing a terrifying blast—the strongest attack they could muster.

Majin Buu, having restored his body, looked at the terrifying attack and merely snorted, chanting:

"Kamehameha."

A pink energy Kamehameha was fired out, and the two terrifying energy waves collided.

"Holy crap, he learned it just by watching a few times? His learning ability is on par with mine."

Piccolo glanced at Gamos, who was busy bragging, and felt the urge to retort. However, upon reflection, it didn't seem like much of a boast; the guy's capacity to learn was indeed monstrous.

The energy from both sides was so overwhelming that the entire Earth began to tremble, the fluctuations sweeping across the whole planet.

"Alright, stop! If you keep fighting, there won't be an Earth left."

Krillin and Yamcha appeared, immediately transforming into Super Saiyan Blue. They dove straight into the focal point where the energy beams clashed, then each took a side, neutralizing the power entirely.
