c62: Fierce Battle! Super Saiyan Gotenks
Back at the celebration banquet, a surge of unfamiliar battle ki pulsed in the distance.
"That's... Gotenks' energy signature and Luya's too!" Krillin blinked in surprise, setting down his drink.
"They're fighting?" Piccolo narrowed his eyes, locking onto the aura waves. "But why?"
Krillin shook his head. "Must be a sparring match. And knowing Goten and Trunks, they probably challenged Luya first. He's not the type to pick fights at a party."
Everyone nodded, understanding exactly how impulsive the two young Saiyans could be.
Bulma and Chichi were less amused.
"What? Those two vanished again?!" Bulma clenched her fists.
"That Trunks!" Chichi huffed. "And Goten too! They always do this during important events!"
"Vegeta!" Bulma snapped, turning to her husband, who stood quietly with arms crossed. "Go get them! The food's about to be served!"
"Hmph…" Vegeta hesitated, clearly annoyed but in the end, he vanished with a flicker of Instantaneous Movement, not willing to argue with his wife.

Meanwhile, far from the party, the battle between Luya and Gotenks was escalating rapidly. The lakeside had become a storm of shockwaves and energy bursts.
Though Luya initially held back, he now found himself genuinely impressed by Gotenks' potential.
"They're improving fast… That's fusion for you."
"Ha-ha! Now take this!" Gotenks shouted, launching a spiraling punch where his forearm spun like a torqued drill, mimicking one of his flashy original techniques.
Luya crossed his arms to block.
BOOM!
The force of the impact blew him back several meters, digging twin tracks into the soil. He stopped himself mid-slide, arms buzzing with numbness.
"…Nice shot," Luya said with a grin, rubbing his forearms.
"Heh!" Gotenks smirked, cocky as ever. "Told ya we're strong!"
Luya took a deep breath and then clenched his fists.
"Alright… playtime's over."
He shouted, a pure white aura bursting around him dense, fiery, and rising steadily. The grass beneath him flattened under the weight of his ki.
It was similar in nature to the divine aura of Super Saiyan God, though not quite the same, he wasn't there yet.
But he was close.
"Eh?!" Gotenks tensed as the ground beneath his feet cracked. "That ki—it's different!"
[Ding! Passive Skill Activated: Strongest Super Saiyan Talent!]
Luya's system notification rang in his mind as his ki spiked again.
I'll use this chance to push my limits.
"Let's go!" Luya vanished with a sharp burst of air.
Before Gotenks could react, Luya's fist smashed into his face.
THUD!
"GAH!" Gotenks tumbled through the air, spinning before landing in the lake with a splash.
He rose moments later, clutching his cheek. "Owww! That hurt!! You punched me before I was ready!"
Luya shrugged. "I warned you."
"You jerk! Fine! Now I'm really mad!" Gotenks growled. "Get ready for my ultimate technique!"
He took a deep breath and began to exhale rhythmically, arms extended. Glowing, ghostly versions of himself emerged with comically sinister faces.
"Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack!"
Six ghost clones floated in the air, cackling menacingly.
Luya's eyes narrowed. He recognized this move. If even one ghost touched him, it would trigger a devastating explosion.
"I'll have to be careful. Their detonation power is no joke… Gotenks used these to almost destroy Buu's body."
"Get him!!" Gotenks yelled.
With that command, the ghosts surged toward Luya like spectral missiles.
Luya's eyes narrowed with focus. Then, without hesitation, he extended his arm and unleashed a series of rapid-fire Ki Blasts from his palm.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As soon as the energy blasts collided with the translucent ghost clones, they exploded on contact each blast triggering a fiery eruption midair.
"What?!" Gotenks growled, clearly displeased, then puffed out his cheeks and exhaled again forcefully.
This time, over a dozen new Ghosts emerged in a burst of white smoke, giggling mischievously. With a shout, Gotenks commanded, "Go get him!!"
The ghostly doppelgängers surged toward Luya like kamikaze missiles.
Luya's expression remained composed. In the next instant, he burst into motion, vanishing with a sonic boom as he weaved through the air with pinpoint precision, dodging the incoming ghosts with swift aerial maneuvers.
From the distance, Gotenks directed the ghosts like a puppeteer, laughing as he watched them pursue Luya. "Hehehe! Let's see how long you can dance, Luya!"
BOOM! BOOM!
Some of the ghosts collided with each other during the chaotic pursuit and detonated prematurely, filling the sky with explosions.
Then, with no warning, Luya sharply changed direction and charged straight toward Gotenks.
"Eh?" Gotenks blinked, surprised, then narrowed his eyes. "Tch! I know what you're planning! But I'm not falling for that!"
Luya simply smiled. In the next instant, he was directly in front of Gotenks—faster than the fusion warrior expected!
Reacting instantly, Gotenks fired off a punch fueled by Super Saiyan energy, while the ghost clones continued flying in blindly from all directions.
Just as Gotenks' punch was about to land, Luya smirked—and suddenly swerved, avoiding the attack entirely. Their fists passed within centimeters of each other.
Then whoosh!
Luya vanished using Instant Transmission, disappearing in a blink without even attempting a counterattack.
Gotenks froze for a second, confused until his eyes widened in horror.
The ghost clones he had forgotten about were still homing in on Luya's last position… and they were right next to him!
"Uh-oh…"
KABOOOM!!
The chain of explosions detonated directly on top of Gotenks. A shockwave surged through the air as thick smoke billowed outward, obscuring the entire scene.
Luya reappeared dozens of meters away, floating calmly as he watched the smoldering smoke cloud.
He narrowed his eyes. "Is it over…?"
"HA!!!"
A loud battle cry rang out as a burst of golden energy erupted from the center of the smoke, piercing through it like a beam of sunlight.
Emerging from the light, Gotenks' form had changed—his hair had grown down to his waist, his eyebrows had vanished, and arcs of blue lightning danced around him.
Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks!
His aura raged around him like wildfire, shaking the air.
Luya's brows furrowed slightly. "He reached Super Saiyan 3 already? Impressive..."
Gotenks grinned cockily. "You forced us to get serious! Not bad, not bad!"
Arcs of crackling energy surged across Gotenks' body. "Now let's see how you handle this!"
In a flash, he disappeared and reappeared right in front of Luya, pointing two fingers like pistols.
Pew! Pew! Pew!
From Gotenks' fingertips, thin, laser-like Ki beams shot out in bursts unpredictable, bending, and zig-zagging.
Luya clenched his teeth and weaved through the air, narrowly dodging them. The attacks were wildly erratic, designed to confuse and overwhelm.
While darting through the beams, Luya charged a Ki sphere in one hand. Then, gritting his teeth, he rushed straight at Gotenks, ignoring the danger.
Seeing this, Gotenks pulled back and charged his own signature move.
"Ka…me…ha…me…"
Bright blue light gathered between his palms, and then
"HA!!!"
A brilliant Kamehameha wave surged forward, roaring like a tsunami of pure energy.
Luya met it head-on, thrusting forward his charged energy sphere.
BOOM!!
The two attacks collided in mid-air, causing the air itself to tremble. Energy rippled violently from the point of impact, shaking the trees and lakewater far below.
Luya gritted his teeth, his feet skidding back from the force.
Gotenks smirked. "Gotcha now!"
He poured even more power into his beam. The Kamehameha swelled in intensity, pushing Luya back.
"Not good!" Luya muttered, and quickly thrust out his other hand, generating a second energy blast to reinforce the first.
With both arms forward now, he struggled to hold the Kamehameha at bay.
> This fusion brat is more dangerous than I thought!
But Luya refused to yield. Sparks danced around him as his aura began to surge once more…
