Fat Buu's narrowed eyes flew open, a vicious glint flashing within them. "You're so annoying. I'm going to make you disappear!"
Vegeta sneered and crooked a finger at him, his provocation unmistakable.
Veins bulged on Fat Buu's forehead as he charged forward!
With a cold snort, Vegeta's aura surged. He transformed directly into Super Saiyan 2 and met Fat Buu head-on at full strength!
Rumble!!
The already dilapidated spaceship was completely wrecked by their battle!
Vegeta and Fat Buu shot into the sky!
With Babidi dead, the magic sealing the three underground levels had been lifted. Vegeta and Fat Buu blasted straight through the spaceship and arrived above Earth, where they began fighting fiercely.
Shin and the others also flew out of the spaceship and landed on the ground, looking up at the two locked in fierce combat overhead.
"So powerful! Uncle Vegeta has Buu suppressed!" Son Gohan exclaimed.
In the sky.
Vegeta unleashed a relentless barrage, leaving Fat Buu completely unable to fight back. Yet Fat Buu remained relaxed, showing neither frustration nor anxiety despite taking the hits.
Bang!!
Vegeta drove out a heavy kick, sending Fat Buu flying!
Fat Buu smashed through several mountains in succession before barely coming to a stop against a towering peak!
Hovering high in the air, Vegeta stared coldly at Fat Buu buried beneath the rubble. He raised one hand, gathering energy in his palm...
"Big Bang Attack!"
As the words fell, surging energy erupted and blasted apart the mountain burying Fat Buu!!
Rumble!!
The earth trembled, sand and stones flew everywhere, and a massive crater appeared in the ground.
At the bottom of the crater.
Majin Buu pushed aside the rocks crushing him, stood up, and dusted himself off. The simple-minded smile on his face remained unchanged as he looked up at Vegeta in the sky. Though he said nothing, the provocation and mockery in his expression infuriated Vegeta!
"Take this!"
Vegeta raised both hands, gathering energy in his palms, then continuously fired dense barrages of ki blasts down at Fat Buu below!
Rumble!!
The ki blasts rained down like droplets. Fat Buu neither dodged nor defended, forcibly taking the full course of Vegeta's Prince's Fighting Style.
After a long while.
Vegeta stopped attacking and stared solemnly downward, but the dust and debris filling the sky prevented him from seeing anything below...
"Hm!"
Suddenly, Vegeta's expression tightened. In his senses, Fat Buu's energy was rapidly moving below. In the blink of an eye, he appeared behind him!
Vegeta was startled and hurriedly turned to block...
Bang!!
But Fat Buu was too fast. Just as Vegeta turned around, Fat Buu's size-forty-eight foot came flying in and slammed hard into Vegeta's face.
Vegeta cried out miserably as his body plummeted downward!
Fat Buu grinned, raised both hands, and gathered energy. Imitating Vegeta's earlier move, he fired a rain of purple ki blasts down at Vegeta below!
Rumble!!
The ground shook repeatedly. The earth for hundreds of miles around cracked apart, mountains and rivers overturned, and the scene resembled the end of the world!
Seeing this.
Shin shook his head and sighed. "If this keeps up, it's hard to say whether Buu will be defeated, but this planet definitely won't hold out first."
"Damn it! Vegeta, I'll help you!" Son Goku also realized the severity of the situation. No longer caring whether his friend would get angry, he directly entered the battle!
Buzz!
Son Goku transformed into a Super Saiyan, then flashed to Fat Buu's side as he was still using Prince's Fighting Style...
Fat Buu froze and turned his head, only to see a size-forty-two shoe flying toward his face!
Bang!!
Fat Buu was kicked away!
"Vegeta, are you all right?!" Son Goku shouted downward.
Buzz!!
A golden light shot into the sky as Vegeta, covered in blood and gasping heavily, flew up from below.
Vegeta glared at Son Goku and gritted his teeth. "Damn it, Kakarot! This is my battle. Don't interfere!"
Son Goku apologized, "Sorry, Vegeta, but if you keep fighting like this, Earth won't hold out first. I have to step in!"
At those words, Vegeta clenched his fists unwillingly. Finally, he snorted coldly and gritted his teeth. "Don't hold me back!"
With that, Vegeta charged toward Fat Buu!
Son Goku smiled and gave an "Mm," then raised his energy, transformed into Super Saiyan 2, and joined the battle as well!
Son Goku and Vegeta joined forces, and for a time, they suppressed Fat Buu.
Below.
Son Gohan stood with his mouth open in amazement. "So incredible! Whether it's Dad or Uncle Vegeta, both of them are so much stronger than me!"
Shin smiled. "Gohan, there's no need to put yourself down. In terms of talent alone, your potential far surpasses those two up there. With proper guidance and training, you'll soon surpass all three of them."
"Huh? I... I have that kind of potential? But I've clearly been training very hard these past few months, yet I'm still so far behind Dad and the others," Son Gohan said dejectedly.
Shin explained, "That's because you haven't been training properly. Those methods of yours are less like training and more like child's play."
"Huh? Supreme Kai, you seem to know a lot about me?" Son Gohan asked in confusion.
"Of course. I've been watching your family all along. Your father, Mr. Son Goku, is a very special individual. And Gohan, among all the mortals in the universe at this stage, your talent ranks second."
"Second? Supreme Kai, you flatter me." Son Gohan's cheeks reddened as he smiled shyly.
Shin asked with a smile, "Gohan, once this is over, would you like to return to the Supreme Kai Realm with me? With my guidance, you'll soon surpass your father."
"Well..." Son Gohan hesitated before saying awkwardly, "Supreme Kai, thank you for your kind offer, but I... still want to become a scholar."
Shin was somewhat speechless. It was rare for him to take such a liking to someone's talent, yet he had been refused.
"Fine. Since you refuse, I'll respect your decision," Shin said.
"I'm sorry, Supreme Kai. I've let down your kind intentions," Son Gohan said apologetically.
Shin shook his head. "Rejecting me is your own loss. You needn't apologize to me."
Son Gohan gave an awkward smile, unsure of what to do.
He looked up at the three fighting in the sky, changed the subject, and asked, "Supreme Kai, do you think Dad and Uncle Vegeta can defeat Majin Buu?"
Shin glanced at the three fighting overhead and commented calmly, "If Mr. Son Goku doesn't use his true power soon, the two of them will be defeated by Buu within a hundred exchanges."
"Huh? His true power? Dad... he hasn't used his full strength yet?" Son Gohan asked in shock.
Shin explained, "Judging by Mr. Son Goku's maximum energy limit, he is currently using only one quarter of his power. He is still far from going all out."
"What?!"
Son Gohan's mouth fell open. Looking up at his father in the sky, he said in shock, "Dad is already... incredibly powerful right now. The strength he's displayed has even surpassed Uncle Vegeta's, yet this is only... one quarter of his power?"
