"Two Deadly Battles" is the four hundred and fifty-eighth chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1994 #11 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.

Summary

Babidi is shocked and tries again, but Vegeta still refuses. "Like I said... I only want to fight Kakarrot... I am a pride-filled Saiyan prince... You think you've taken me as your servant...!!! Even if you control my body and mind, my pride alone is not as you thought!!!" Babidi thinks someone so full of pride is a first, but Dabra assures him that Vegeta's only purpose was to take energy. If Kaiōshin should make it to them, Dabra will kill him. Kaiōshin can't believe that Vegeta was able to defy Babidi like that. Goku hadn't realized Vegeta wanted to settle the score that much. Dabra suggests that Babidi open the door for Kaiōshin, so that they won't risk Majin Buu being revived at less than full strength.

They prepare to hop down the hole, but first, Goku gives Gohan one of the two remaining senzu, and tells him to eat it now. Goku also tells him to get angry like he had when fighting Cell, as it will bring out the depths of his power. If he does that, there's no one he can lose to. Gohan is sorry this all had to happen on his one day here, as he and Kaiōshin hop down the hole. The floor panel to the next floor is open as well, and they continue down until they reach the bottom. They arrive in the room with Majin Buu's ball, where Babidi and Dabra are waiting. Kaiōshin and Babidi snidely greet each other, and he tells Gohan he'll fight Babidi.

Goku and Vegeta stare each other down. Goku says he doesn't want his damage to be received by Majin Buu as energy, so he's going to end this at his highest power. Vegeta is curious to see the fruits of his training in the Heavenly Realm. Goku then powers up, with electricity flying all around his body, and Vegeta says he's even stronger than Gohan was "back then" before powering up himself. Goku thinks he needs to end this soon. Vegeta says he'll kill him, as he throws a hard kick that Goku barely blocks. Vegeta pulls back, and then throws a punch that Goku catches. Goku throws his own punch with his free hand, which Vegeta catches with his free hand. They attempt to knee each other, until Vegeta head butts Goku and knocks him away. Goku recovers, and then kicks Vegeta, sending him crashing into the ground. Vegeta comes back from the impact, and the two of them smirk at each other.

 ==Summary==
-Babidi suggests they all return to the surface, as Majin Buu will soon be at full power and might destroy the ship when he emerges from his ball. Kaiōshin agrees, even though he won't allow that to happen. "Papparapa!!" They are suddenly transported outside, along with Majin Buu's ball. Babidi asks Dabra if he can defeat that Earthling, and Dabra says there is no doubt. Gohan remembers his father's words and tries getting angry as he turns Super Saiyan. Babidi says he won't be done in like Papa, as he has greater magic power than Papa and Dabra's here this time. The meter on Majin Buu's ball begins beeping, and Babidi looks down to see that it's already full. Babidi is extremely elated with excitement.
+Babidi is shocked and tries again, but Vegeta still refuses. "Like I said... I only want to fight Kakarrot... I am a pride-filled Saiyan prince... You think you've taken me as your servant...!!!

If Kaiōshin should make it to them, Dabra will kill him. Kaiōshin can't believe that Vegeta was able to defy Babidi like that. Goku hadn't realized Vegeta wanted to settle the score ''that'' much. Dabra suggests that Babidi open the door for Kaiōshin, so that they won't risk Majin Buu being revived at less than full strength.
-Kaiōshin can't believe Goku has already taken so much damage. Gohan realizes it must be because his father and Vegeta are likely both fighting at the level well beyond Super Saiyan, and so the damage must be incredible. Meanwhile, Goku takes a punch to the face, and then Vegeta takes a punch to the face. The two of them clash, and a cloud of smoke builds up around them. Trunks and Goten wonder if those incredible ''ki'' belong to their Papas. Trunks wonders what's actually going on, since their locations keep changing.

-Goku and Vegeta break, and catch their breath. Goku says they're equals, and figures Vegeta has trained even more than he had. "No... You may think I had special training better than yours, but you're a genius far greater than I. That difference has never changed. ...I knew it. When you were fighting the monster that Babidi sent... It was a shock... So I secretly decided then..." Goku realizes it. "Yeah. People who knew the two henchman of Babidi's at the Budōkai said they had gotten much stronger than before. I remembered that, and I thought it out. ‘If I were under his control, the difference with you would be gone'... That's how it was. I resorted to something I didn't like..."

-Goku asks if the pride-filled Vegeta would really let himself be controlled just because he wanted to get strong? "I... I... I wanted to return to my former self!!!! I wanted to return to the cruel and cold-hearted Saiyan that didn't care about anything, and fight you thoroughly!!!! I didn't like it... Without realizing it, I was influenced by you all. I became calm... I even had a family... It didn't feel bad. I grew to like this snug little Earth... S-So, I let Babidi control me. ...I needed to return to my original evil self... Because of this, I now feel really good..." Goku wonders if that's really true, as smoke starts to shoot up from Majin Buu's ball.
