"Do Your Best, Super Gotenks-kun" is the four hundred and ninety-fourth chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1994 #49 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.

Summary

Gotenks flies at Boo, headbutting him straight through the temple's main structure and out into mid-air, surprising Boo. Gotenks comes at him again and Boo just barely manages to dodge a punch, and then grabs Gotenks' fist and slings him around. He tosses Gotenks through the temple floor, knocking off a big chunk of it. Boo screams out with rage, as Gotenks laughs at how mad he is and Piccolo laments over the temple's destruction. Boo curls himself up into a ball, and comes flying toward them. Gotenks dodges, and so Boo shoots straight through the temple floor out into the air again. Boo continues doing this, until the temple is completely destroyed, aside from the floor below them. Gotenks prepares to counter, but Boo busts up their remaining floor from underneath as he does his poses. Piccolo yells at Gotenks to just do it without posing. Gotenks disappointedly obeys and fires his Rapid Fire Super Donuts attack at Boo.

Gotenks shoots out a bunch of donuts, which surround Boo and trap him into a ball. Piccolo excitedly thinks Majin Boo has been sealed away, but Gotenks says he will break free soon, so they will have to damage him now. "Crashing Ultra Boo-Boo Volleyball!!!!" Gotenks wants Piccolo to help, and instructs him to say "Okay!" after he says "Here I go!" Piccolo reluctantly agrees. Gotenks says, "Here I go!", and Piccolo responds with "Okay!" Gotenks passes, Piccolo tosses, and Gotenks attacks, spiking the Boo volleyball down toward the Earth. Piccolo realizes his help was not actually necessary. Gotenks flies down after Boo, and laughs when he notices that he has left a large crater in the Earth, as though a meteorite had crashed down.

 "'''Do Your Best, Super Gotenks-kun'''" is the four hundred and ninety-fourth chapter of the ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' manga series by [[Akira Toriyama]]. It was first published in Japan in the 1994 #49 issue of Shueisha's ''[[Weekly Shōnen Jump]]''.
 ==Summary==
-Gotenks calls Buu out of the crater, knowing that his attack wouldn't be enough to kill him. He tells Buu to hurry up, since he won't be able to stay this strong for long, and it'll be an hour before he can do it again. Piccolo arrives, and Gotenks says maybe he was too strong after all and Buu really is dead. But suddenly a huge blast shoots up from the crater, barely missing Gotenks and Piccolo. Piccolo nervously notes that the blast had enough energy to obliterate the Earth in an instant. Gotenks is mad, and decides to fire some Rapid-Fire Die-Die Missiles down into the crater. Piccolo warns him that he'll blow up the Earth, but Gotenks isn't too concerned, since everyone's dead anyway. Piccolo yells at Gotenks that he could end up destroying a Dragon Ball, and if even just one ball is destroyed, then nothing can be restored.

-Gotenks stops, thinking Buu's probably been weakened anyway. Buu comes flying up out of the rubble, but not really weakened. Piccolo says he really is weakened; although not physically, but certainly in spirit. Buu's never fought anyone this strong before. Gotenks gloats and thinks Buu's scared, but Piccolo scolds him about being careless. Buu flies over and headbutts Gotenks off into the distance, and then chases after him. Gotenks dodges a punch, and then hammers Buu into the remains of a city. Gotenks flies at Buu, but Buu shoots a huge mouth blast at Gotenks. As the smoke clears, an angry Gotenks appears, burnt to a crisp. He decides to counter with his own mouth blast, which fries Buu in return. The two take to the ground, and Gotenks gets in a kick, blocks a punch, and gets in another kick, before taking the upper hand and absolutely pounding on Buu. Goku thinks Gohan won't even get a turn at this rate. Gotenks announces he's going to finish this and bust Buu up into tiny little pieces, and he won't be able to recover anymore, because he'll wipe Buu out with his ''ki'' this time. But then suddenly, Super Saiyan 3 runs out and Gotenks return to normal...
