Dragon Ball The Next

Goten opened his eyes, he realized that his whole body was aching and hurting.

It's like someone beat him up while he was knocked out, as just using all of his ki on Final Flash should not be this painful.

"Where am I?" He thought as he looked around.

He saw Trunks who was still unconscious.

And a short ugly-looking alien looking directly at him.

"You." Goten got up to attack the alien but he was held back by some kind of magic.

"You are such an interesting being. Do you want to my follower. I can give you what you want." The alien called Babidi said to Goten.

Goten frowned at Babidi.

He also noticed that there was someone as strong as him located nearby.

"Lord Babidi. Don't provoke this boy too much. His strength is no joke." A voice was heard.

"Oh. I have to introduce you to Dabura. Boy, this is Dabura. The former demon king. Remember his face. After all, you two are going to be working together in the future." Babidi said while smiling.

"And can you tell me about how you become stronger after eating this thing?" Babidi said as he showed the Senzu bean to Goten.

"!." "Wait. How did you?" Goten was in shock.

"And it also seems to have recovery abilities too. If you had more I would have tried feeding PuiPui, Yakon and Dabura to see if they would become stronger eating it. But since you only have one I cannot take such a risk." Babidi said as he looked at Goten.

He then focused the Senzu bean into Goten's mouth.

Goten tried to resist him but he was unable to and he was forced to eat the Senzu bean.

After eating it he recovered his ki and all the injuries on his body were healed.

He tried to break free and kill Babidi before anything was done to him but Dabira inserted a device into his body.

He tried to resist it but Babidi also seemed to be using magic on him to hold him down.

The energy he recovered because of the Senzu bean was slowly sucked away.

It was even more devastating as he knew that he had gotten stronger due to getting another Zenkai boost when he was healed.

"You bastards," Goten said as he lost his power slowly as it was drained away.

More than 90% of the power needed to revive Majin Buu was collected from Goten and Trunks.

They got energy from the fight Goten had with Trunks.

They also got energy after taking away the power that was left in Super Saiyan2 Trunks after he was defeated and a full-power Goten who had another Zenkai awakening.

"Hmm. It seems that someone is coming towards us." Babidi said as he looked at his crystal ball to see Goku and the others coming towards his place.

"Excellent. The power meter of Majin Buu is almost full. Dabura. You know what to do." Babidi said.

"Yes, Master," Dabura replied.

------------------------------

At that time.

Vegeta, Goku, Gohan, Shin, Kibito, and Piccolo were following the two bald brothers.

"Majin Buu. Is he that strong?" Goku asked.

"He is. He is way stronger than anything I have ever seen. He was able to kill all of the Kaioshin apart from me easily. And from what I have seen he is stronger than the two children that just fought by a huge margin." Shin said.

"Interesting," Vegeta said to Shin.

"We don't have much time yet. We have to stop Babidi before Majin Buu is revived. Otherwise, no one in the universe will be able to stop him." Shin said.

Goku and Vegeta seem to be interested in the power of Majin Buu because of how much Shin is praising him.

Then suddenly Dabura appeared in front of them.

"Dabura," Shin said as he looked at the demon king.

Dabura was a muscular demon with bright pink skin.

Just like other Babidi's henchmen he also has the mark of Majin on his forehead.

"Do you know him?" Goku asked Shin.

"He is the demon king who disappeared from the demon world. He is someone that even I cannot defeat on my own. I never thought that he would be working under Babidi." Shin said.

"But We should be able to take him down if we all work together," Shin said to Goku.

"Gohan. You can take care of him." Goku said.

"Huh?" Shin was shocked.

"Me?" Gohan was also confused.

"I know you have become weaker because you didn't train during the seven years I was gone. But I knew you still have that power buried inside you." Goku said.

"Fighting someone as strong as Cell would make you discover your power again," Goku said to Gohan.

"What? Are you serious?" Piccolo wanted to say something but he was stopped by Vegeta.

"For once I agree with Kakarrot," Vegeta said.

Vegeta has become much more mature than his old self because of the kid's influence but in the end, he still has the blood of Saiyans.

Of course, if he knew that 90% of the power needed to revive Buu he would have opposed Goku but he didn't know about that.

This one signal mistake by Goku and Vegeta would be the reason why Majin Buu is released back into the universe.

"I will put an end to this madness once in for all," Shin said as he prepared to join the fight but someone put a hand on his shoulder.

Shin knew the one who put his hand on his shoulder was someone that he could not beat.

So he was shocked when he saw that it was Piccolo. Not Goku or Vegeta.

"You can trust Gohan." Piccolo to Shin.

"You are fighting me? I don't know how strong those three are but I knew you are the weakest among all of them part from that Failure of a Kaioshin." Dabura taunted Gohan as he looked at Goku, Vegeta and Piccolo.

"My dad is watching me. So I can't let him down. I am using my full power." Gohan said as he transformed into Super Saiyan.

He was only Super Saiyan because at this point he was unable to transform into Super Saiyan 2.

But Dabura knew that Gohan's power would still be enough to fill up the remaining energy needed for Buu's revival.
