Everyone stood outside in an open field near the residence of Gohan's family. The field was marked as though it was setting certain boundaries for an event relating to some sort of sport.

Goku: You got this area all fixed up like a world tournament championship! I guess living with Hercule allows this kind of stuff huh?
396Please respect copyright.PENANAz2f4b7fNak
Gohan chuckled at his dad's comment.
396Please respect copyright.PENANA0UeuTY5Bcb
Gohan: Yeah, we never get to use it though so this will be the first time it's ever put to use.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAzp6wrStNyF
Goku: Alright, let's make good use of it then!
396Please respect copyright.PENANAM3lgr9Gczx
He said as he got into his battle stance. Gohan did the same and prepared for battle.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAx3TzpzMTDR
Goku: Here I go!
396Please respect copyright.PENANAJNJppzyhxH
Goku dashed to Gohan as soon as he finished his sentence. He wasted no time in throwing a quick jab at Gohan. Gohan reacted just in time and blocked the blow. Goku followed up his punch with a kick to Gohan's side. The damaging blow staggered Gohan, leaving him vulnerable. His focused father took advantage of the opening and hit Gohan with an uppercut, sending him flying to the air. Videl, Chichi and Goten all watched on the sidelines as the two powerhouses went at it.

Chichi: Goku seems awfully intense. What if he hurts my poor Gohan!
396Please respect copyright.PENANAB98ksX2WbX
Videl: Don't worry Chichi, I'm sure this is just another thing between saiyans and their questionable nature. I trust Goku will know when to stop.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAxcbfG23SEK
The fight continued in the air with Gohan struggling to keep up.
396Please respect copyright.PENANA0320uyfGej
Goku: This isn't doing it, I need to push further.
396Please respect copyright.PENANADguxy4HV2g
Goku took a distance from his son and jumped into his super saiyan 3 form.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAaFXaMBIJ7d
Goku: Make me try, Gohan.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAFRImS7hzAt
He said in a taunting tone. Gohan understood the challenge and powered up to his ultimate form.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAtuPgeI42rc
Gohan: You seem really enthusiastic about this, dad. I won't let you down!
396Please respect copyright.PENANAH4Hwg7CiN7
Gohan proceeded, this time him being the one to commence the onslaught. He struck Goku's gut with enough force to cause shockwaves across the sky. Goku let out an expression of pain, but he quickly caught his balance and used the opportunity to grab Gohan's arm and toss him downwards following it up with a barrage of ki blasts. Gohan rushed through them all, knocking them into different directions as he made his way to Goku.
396Please respect copyright.PENANA0dDGuRaavM
Gohan: How's this dad!
396Please respect copyright.PENANAgfsa4kTFXG
Gohan reached the opponent above him and went in for a strike to the face. Goku barely stopped his fist after instantaneously transforming into his super saiyan blue form. He looked slightly annoyed.
396Please respect copyright.PENANA84kMq9U7mN
Goku: Alright Gohan, show me how well you do now.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAmDc2jbhwWP
He clocked his son with a well put kick in the jaw. He didn't hesitate to follow up with an elbow to Gohan's spine. The attack sent him crashing to the ground.
396Please respect copyright.PENANABaceNAwxN9
Videl: Gohan! Are you okay?
396Please respect copyright.PENANAVpyHKLs9XU
Gohan stood up slowly, wiping some blood off of his lip.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAoBm03CL97L
Gohan: Don't worry, Videl. He just wants a challenge, a warrior deserves a good battle!
396Please respect copyright.PENANANtCEnkois1
He said while struggling to stand.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAd2LsuMpqD8
Goku: You can do better than that Gohan.
396Please respect copyright.PENANA0Lz2h7jnjs
He claimed in a cold tone. Gohan stood more determined than before. He gained his balance and repositioned his stance.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAEraOpGz47R
Gohan: I'm ready!
396Please respect copyright.PENANAYOedkMgxHE
Gohan raised his aura and raised his hands to his forehead. He overlapped them together and focused his energy into them.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAYggxMUS1ox
Gohan: Masenko!
396Please respect copyright.PENANAT6ROnqYWvm
He released a massive yellow beam of energy to his father's direction. The blue warrior stopped the beam with the palm of his hands showing little signs of discomfort in the process. Gohan raced behind Goku and delivered a kick to his spine, he followed it up with a quick energy beam, blowing Goku even further away. He flew to where his father was headed and caught him with a chop to his neck. Goku took the attack and grabbed ahold of Gohan's arm, he then flipped him around, smashing him to the ground. Goku continued his assault with a punch to Gohan's gut. His eyebrow twitched as he watched his son struggle to fight back. After lots of struggle, Gohan kicked his father off of him.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAhK67S2FbzY
Gohan: Here's one even you can't stop so easily.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAt6gPyxmGC2
He got in position preparing to charge an attack.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAYBasbp2eQi
Gohan: Kaaa…meee..haaa…meee.
396Please respect copyright.PENANATxeZrFg5ku
Goku watched with seemingly no intent to stop the incoming attack.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAyT7JoP5FWn
Gohan: Haaaaa!
396Please respect copyright.PENANAdV6ZiKtdnW
The ferocious blue wave of energy made its way to Goku at a shocking speed, destroying everything in its path. Goku raised his arm as it approached him and swung at the mighty wave with all his force, completely negating it in the process.
396Please respect copyright.PENANA5dG3EP9vXI
Gohan: H-He stopped it with a punch.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAHyPpRa4Cjb
Goku's expression was even more annoyed than before. He rushed to Gohan, attacking him with a continuous barrage of punches and kicks. Gohan gave all his effort but was unable to avoid every hit, the rush continued until Gohan could no longer block any hit. Goku jabbed his elbow into his son's head, knocking him to the ground. Gohan looked up at his dad, shaking from the beating.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAI1csGBJdIp
Gohan: D-Dad?
396Please respect copyright.PENANAfvyHNmH98u
Goku punched him. Then he punched him again. He continued non stop, each punch more ferocious and brutal than the last. The punches began to draw blood from the enraged warrior's son. It wasn't long before Gohan's face got bruised up.
396Please respect copyright.PENANALXB4j8tcPN
Goku: You're weak! How dare you! You were gifted with a potential greater than my own and yet you throw it away, but you still have the audacity to call yourself my son? Look at you, laying there like the defenseless boy you were back in our fight with the saiyans. I should've known I wouldn't find a challenge with you.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAn92DTxFgIK
Chichi ran to the scene, yelling at the top of her lungs in fury and frustration.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAXH6lGeC81k
Chichi: Goku! You leave our son alone right now! What's wrong with you?
396Please respect copyright.PENANAaLc3pDCYDp
Goku stopped the pummeling and turned to his wife with a cold stare.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAonnKB9zmgy
Goku: This is your fault too! We're saiyans, we're meant to fight and you took that away from our son, made him reject his instincts and a few times made me reject mine.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAlb70HBA4vd
Chichi stopped in her tracks as soon as he finished uttering those last words. Her eyes watered up, the water soon turned to tears and the tears to sobbing. Goten held onto Videl in confusion and fear. Goku snapped out of his fit of rage and looked down at his beaten son who had almost completely passed out from his injuries. He turned to his heart broken wife and his frightened child. He shifted his gaze to his fists which were covered in blood. His breath grew heavy as he descended from his super saiyan blue form back to his base. He had a regretful look in his eyes as he looked around one last time before flying off far into the distance without a single word. He flew with no real destination in mind. He was once again lost deep in his thoughts.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAJuEEziuT4Z
Goku: Why did I do that? What's wrong with me?
396Please respect copyright.PENANAC2Ys9YH58c
He suddenly reached into his pocket and pulled out the rod the saiyan claiming to be him had gifted him. He glared at it for a good minute before continuing his thought process.
396Please respect copyright.PENANAMI2hKQwNIK
Goku: It's him! He must be the answer. I have to speak with him.
