Honestly, compared to Mystic Gohan's 9 trillion battle power, Goku Buu's 9.6 trillion didn't feel overwhelmingly impressive.
Still, after a brief internal complaint, Zeru felt a strange sense of excitement.
In his previous life, when he first saw Gohan Buu, he had wonderedāwhat if Majin Buu had absorbed Goku instead? How strong would that version be?
Now, he had witnessed it firsthand.
It wasn't the invincible existence he had imaginedābut it still fulfilled a long-held curiosity.
"Uncle Zeru, leave Majin Buu to me."
Mystic Gohan spoke calmly.
"Alright."
Zeru had no intention of intervening anyway. He wanted to see just how strong Goku Buu really was.
"Eat! Eat! I'll eat all of you! Wahahaha!"
As Zeru and Gohan spoke, Goku Buu bounced around in the air, his face full of excitement.
The next momentā
He vanished and appeared in front of Mystic Gohan.
Bang!
A heavy punch shot forward.
Bang!
Gohan remained calm, meeting the attack with a punch of his own and sending Goku Buu flying.
Then he followed up, engaging in close combat.
"Gohan really has grown stronger!"
Supreme Kai Shin and Kibito exchanged glances below, smiles of relief appearing on their faces.
They weren't fools. They could clearly tell that after absorbing Goku, Majin Buu had reached an unimaginable level of power.
And yetā
Gohan was keeping up.
Their clash was evenly matched.
That alone was enough to shock them.
Boom!
In the sky, Mystic Gohan began increasing his power.
The longer he fought, the more pressure he felt.
Majin Buu's body was absurdāhis regeneration even more so.
Gohan understood that if this dragged on, he would eventually lose.
So he stopped holding back.
Bang!
Another close-range clash.
This timeā
Gohan was sent flying.
Goku Buu pressed the advantage, charging forward and unleashing a one-sided beating.
"Super Kamehameha!"
After a brutal barrage, Goku Buu unleashed a massive blue beam.
"Ah!"
Gohan cried out in pain.
"Gohan!"
Shin and the others panicked.
"Eat! Eat! I'll eat you all!"
Goku Buu laughed wildly, staring at the rising mushroom cloud.
Whoosh!
He rushed straight into the explosion.
Flash!
A light flickeredā
And when it fadedā
Everyone froze.
Goku Buu was gone.
In his placeā
Gohan Buu stood.
"He⦠he absorbed Gohan?!"
Supreme Kai Shin's voice trembled.
"Interesting⦠looks like Gohan Buu really is the strongest form."
Zeru chuckled softly.
"It's over⦠even Gohan's been absorbed. This universe is doomedā¦"
Kibito's face turned pale.
"Haā¦"
Amid their despair, Zeru let out a yawn and slowly flew toward the sky.
His targetā
Gohan Buu.
At this moment, Gohan Buu's battle power had reached 40 trillion.
That level was practically the peak.
Beyond thisā
Only Dragon Ball Super-level fighters could suppress him.
Well⦠except one.
The ultimate fusion warriorā
Vegito.
But Zeru doubted Vegito would appear now. After all, Goku had already been absorbed. Without him, there was no fusion.
"You're finally stepping in."
As Zeru approached, Gohan Buu spoke.
Unlike his attitude toward others, there was a hint of unease in his voice.
Sweat formed on his forehead.
He was wary.
"Don't panic."
Zeru grinned and transformed into Super Saiyan 2.
His battle power rose to 6.7 trillion.
"I admit you're strong. But I'm not weak either! Comeālet me defeat you and eat you!"
Gohan Buu forced confidence into his tone.
But the moment he finished speakingā
Zeru vanished.
In a single secondā
Over a hundred strikes landed.
"Hm?"
Zeru frowned.
Despite the barrage, Gohan Buu only looked slightly pained. His body showed no real damage.
"My regeneration far exceeds your damage!"
Gohan Buu sneered.
"Oh? Really?"
Zeru smiled.
Thenā
He transformed again.
Not Super Saiyan 3.
Butā
Super Saiyan 4.
Boom!
One punch.
Just oneā
And Gohan Buu collapsed completely.
His body split apart.
Goku and Gohan were expelled.
All that remainedā
Was the original, small Majin Buu, staring blankly.
Thenā
His expression changed.
He turned and ran.
"You're not getting away."
Zeru pointed a finger.
Erasure.
The evil Majin Buu was wiped from existence.
All that remainedā
Was the good, chubby Majin Buu.
"You⦠you're not going to kill me?"
He looked around nervously before focusing on Zeru, his expression innocent.
"Why would I kill you?"
Zeru smiled. He had no Hostility toward this version of Buu. If anything, he found him rather cute.
"Mr. Zeru⦠what about him�"
Supreme Kai Shin approached cautiously.
"The Buu left now is pure good. Don't worryāhe won't do anything bad."
Zeru reassured him.
Relief washed over everyone.
Though they still looked at Buu with lingering fear.
And just like thatā
The Majin Buu saga came to an end.
Afterward, Zeru stayed in the Dragon Ball Super timeline for another three months. He had hoped to see Vegito, but unfortunately, without a dire enough threat, Vegeta refused to fuse with Goku.
It was a shame.
But not a big one.
There would be opportunities in the future.
On this day, Zeru prepared to return to his main timelineāthe GT world.
But just as he was about to leaveā
A voice echoed in his mind.
"Zeru⦠Lord Beerus had a very strange dream."
