==Summary==
==Summary==
Yamcha tells the others that the youngsters are about to try Fusion, and so everyone walks over to watch. Yamcha says they’re going to try it outside, since while fused, they could have such an incredible ''ki'' that they’d blow up the inner shrine. Kuririn is convinced they’ll likely become a very strong warrior, but wonders what they’d look like. Kame-Sen’nin thinks they already look similar, so they probably won’t change too much. But then again, they could look like a completely different "macho man". Chi-Chi wonders what their name will be, either "Gotenks" or "Trunten". Bulma says it won’t matter, since they’ll only be fused for thirty minutes.
[[Goku]] readies the boulder, and [[Gohan]] thinks he can slice it like tofu. But [[Shin|Kaiōshin]] thinks they should test it with something harder and makes a big cube appear out of thin air. He tosses the cube over to Goku and explains that this is the hardest metal in the universe, [[Katchin Steel]]. Goku taps it a bit and is quite impressed. He asks Gohan if he is ready, and then throws the block of Katchin Steel at him. Gohan swings the sword at it, but... the [[Z Sword]] breaks when it connects with the block. Everyone is completely shocked, and Goku blames it on Kaiōshin, but Kaiōshin says that the legendary sword was supposed to hold the greatest power. Gohan thinks the legend may have been exaggerated, as he drops the sword's broken remains.


Piccolo instructs the boys to match their ''ki'', and begin. "Fu...sion... Ha!!!" There’s a big flash as the two begin to fuse. Everyone looks up, and standing before them is a large, pudgy kid. Everyone is shocked. Bulma hopes they can return to normal, while Kuririn doubts this is the stronger-than-Majin Buu-warrior that Goku mentioned. Yamcha gets it: an eye for an eye, a fatty for a fatty! The kid begins running, but stops five seconds later, panting hard. Kame-Sen’nin thinks this was a failure, and Piccolo realizes why, scolding the kid about Trunks having his fingers out instead of a fist. Piccolo tells him to turn back, but he doesn’t know how. So, they’ll just wait the thirty minutes. Everyone talks to him, and they find out his name is Gotenks.
Gohan does perk up and say his physical strength has gone way up, since the Z Sword was so heavy. Maybe that was the source of the greatest power, and Kaiōshin agrees that Gohan has probably powered up greatly. Goku is unsure if that is enough to beat [[Majin Boo]], though. An [[Elder Kaiōshin|old man]], in a Kaiōshin outfit, suddenly shows up, scaring the heck out of everyone, and says that is not it. Everyone wonders who he is, and the old man says he is a [[Kaiōshin]] from fifteen generations ago. A long time ago, a very strong and evil [[Beerus|person]], maybe not at Majin Boo's level, sealed him away in that sword. The person was afraid of his 'fearsomeness'. Goku thinks the old man does not look so awesome, and decides to test him by shooting a blast at him. It hits the old Kaiōshin right in the face and he hits the ground hard.


After thirty minutes, Gotenks splits back into Trunks and Goten. Everyone tries to talk to them, but Piccolo says they’ll have to talk later. Now, they must fuse again. "Fu...sion... Ha!!!" (Trunks’ finger is slightly off at the "ha" part.) Another flash, and... tada! This time a very frail kid appears, and everyone realizes it was another failure. Piccolo scolds them about the finger being off, and thinks they’ll have another thirty minute wait, as Gotenks stands there wheezing like an hold man. Once again, "Fu...sion... Ha!!!" Kuririn comments that it seems like the author has been taking it easy up until now, with the panels of the Fusion pose being almost "copies" of each other. Toriyama appears behind him, saying that he hopes the Chief Editor will pay him in-full for this page.
The old Kaiōshin gets up, and starts calling Goku all kinds of dirty names. Goku figures he is just an old windbag. The old Kaiōshin says the bad guy was not afraid of his "power", but his fearsome abilities. Goku is curious, but the old Kaiōshin says he is not telling, sticking his tongue out. Goku offers him some sexy books if he tells, but the old Kaiōshin says he can just watch girls bathe or get undressed with his godly eyes. Goku then offers him a chance to touch the breasts or ass of a real woman, thinking he is the same type as the [[Turtle Hermit]].


After the flash, a decent-sized, normal-looking warrior appears. Everyone is blown away by his ''ki'', except for the ladies. Piccolo thinks this is great, and in another thirty minutes, they can try it as Super Saiyans. "Hehehe... Aren’t you underestimating me? I’m enough to defeat Majin Buu as I am now." Piccolo says he’s stupid, not knowing anything about Buu, and he definitely can’t win as he is now. "Don’t toy with me. Okay, I’m going to show you right away. Majin Buu’s corpse, that is." Gotenks flies off, ignoring Piccolo’s protests. Piccolo thinks he’s an idiot, and he’ll be killed. Kuririn wonders if he can’t actually win, though, as Yamcha agrees that he was certainly very confident. But, Gotenks soon returns all beat up, and everyone falls over. Piccolo says they’ll fight Buu tomorrow, but for now, they need more training. Meanwhile, Old Kaiōshin continues his funky dancing around Gohan, who looks miserable.
Gohan is curious about what he is up to, and so Goku says that when Gohan gets back to the lower world he can ask his girlfriend, that [[Videl]] girl, to do it. Gohan freaks out and objects. Goku relents and asks the old Kaiōshin if instead he would mind an older woman. Goku tells Gohan to tell [[Bulma]] the circumstances, and Gohan thinks he cannot ask her something like that. Goku asks the old Kaiōshin if his ability can beat Majin Boo, and he says it is not definite, but most likely it can. Goku says she could save the universe just by getting felt up a little, and Gohan thinks that is sexual harassment. Besides, even if they can save the universe, he will be killed by Bulma. But Goku is not listening to Gohan and shakes the old Kaiōshin's hand.
 
Now that it is settled, the old Kaiōshin explains his super ability. No matter how amazing of a master you may be, he can bring out all of your hidden power far beyond your limits. Goku thinks he has heard of that ability before, but the old Kaiōshin insists no one else can do it well beyond the limits like this. He looks at Gohan, seeing that he was the one who pulled the sword out, and says that he can surely make someone who could pull out that sword and swing it around into the strongest in the universe. Though, he had thought the one who would free him from the sword would be a Kaiōshin, not an Earthling. Kaiōshin solemnly apologizes.
 
The old Kaiōshin tells Gohan to stand there, and not to move. Then, he starts doing some funky dancing, circling around him. Gohan tries to ask about this, but the old Kaiōshin tells him to be quiet for this important ritual. Goku asks how long this will take, and the old Kaiōshin says five hours for the ritual, twenty hours for the power up. Goku decides to take a nap, while [[Kibito]] and Kaiōshin realize they should probably stay awake. Gohan does not like this at all. Meanwhile, [[Trunks]] and [[Goten]] are still practicing [[Fusion]], and [[Piccolo]] says they have nearly perfected it. Now he wants them to test it, and tells them to match their ''[[Ki|ki]]'' exactly. Trunks is doubtful that the two of them can really fuse. Piccolo shouts that it is time to begin.

Summary

Goku readies the boulder, and Gohan thinks he can slice it like tofu. But Kaiōshin thinks they should test it with something harder and makes a big cube appear out of thin air. He tosses the cube over to Goku and explains that this is the hardest metal in the universe, Katchin Steel. Goku taps it a bit and is quite impressed. He asks Gohan if he is ready, and then throws the block of Katchin Steel at him. Gohan swings the sword at it, but... the Z Sword breaks when it connects with the block. Everyone is completely shocked, and Goku blames it on Kaiōshin, but Kaiōshin says that the legendary sword was supposed to hold the greatest power. Gohan thinks the legend may have been exaggerated, as he drops the sword's broken remains.

Gohan does perk up and say his physical strength has gone way up, since the Z Sword was so heavy. Maybe that was the source of the greatest power, and Kaiōshin agrees that Gohan has probably powered up greatly. Goku is unsure if that is enough to beat Majin Boo, though.
