"Aracki!"
Seeing him, Gotenks immediately rushed forward.
Aracki let out an evil laugh, and his body suddenly vanished.
"He's gone!"
Gotenks was startled.
At that moment, the corpses of Goku and Vegeta suddenly appeared before him.
"Dad!"
Seeing their lifeless bodies, Gotenks' face twisted with fury.
"No... impossible! How could my dad die at Aracki's hands? This has to be fake, it has to be fake!"
Even as he said it, his eyes began turning red.
Suddenly, another Gotenks appeared before him, his eyes pitch black.
"Who are you? Why do you look exactly like me?"
"I am you," the dark Gotenks replied with a smile.
"You are me?"
"That's right."
"No, you're not me. I'm me!"
The dark Gotenks sneered and attacked without warning.
Gotenks hurriedly raised his arms to block.
"Who are you?"
The dark Gotenks gave no answer and continued attacking.
On Mount Paozu.
Gohan was teaching Lagss and Videl how to train when a figure flew toward them at high speed.
It was Majin Buu.
"Majin Buu!" Videl called out.
Majin Buu nodded urgently.
"Gohan, something terrible happened. Gotenks has been possessed by Aracki!"
"Aracki?"
"Yeah!"
"Then let's hurry and save him!" Videl said anxiously.
"Alright!"
Gohan placed two fingers on his forehead and searched for Gotenks' energy.
"Did you find him?" Videl asked.
"Yes."
Videl immediately placed her hand on Gohan's shoulder, and Lagss did the same.
"Instant Transmission!"
In a flash, Gohan brought them to Gotenks' location.
Gotenks hovered in mid-air, black energy pouring from his body. His pupils were dark, and a black diamond mark had formed on his forehead.
"Gotenks!" Videl shouted.
Gotenks smiled coldly.
"I am not Gotenks. I am the Great Demon King Aracki!"
"Great Demon King Aracki?"
"That's right. His body belongs to me now!"
Aracki laughed wildly.
"Aracki, get out of Gotenks' body immediately, or I won't go easy on you!" Gohan warned.
Aracki snorted.
"If you have the ability, Gohan, then come at me!"
"Fine!"
Gohan instantly rushed forward.
Aracki roared and charged as well.
Whoosh…
Bang! Bang! Bang!!
Their fists clashed at lightning speed, kicking up massive clouds of dust.
After several exchanges, Gohan increased his speed and sent Aracki flying with a powerful kick.
"Damn it!"
Aracki roared and charged again.
Gohan vanished and reappeared before him, unleashing a flurry of punches.
Bang! Bang! Bang!!
Aracki screamed repeatedly under the assault.
"Still not coming out?" Gohan asked coldly as he stopped attacking.
"No... I'm not leaving!" Aracki gasped.
Bang!!
Gohan kicked him again, blasting him into a nearby building.
The impact sent debris flying everywhere.
When the dust cleared, Aracki crawled out, sneering.
"Gohan, you may be strong, but do you dare kill Gotenks?"
Gohan narrowed his eyes and took out the Heaven-Reaching Mirror from the system.
"A mirror?"
Gohan smirked and aimed it at Aracki.
A powerful suction force erupted from the mirror, locking onto Aracki.
"No... don't!"
Aracki screamed as his spirit was forcibly pulled out of Gotenks' body.
In moments, he was sealed inside the Heaven-Reaching Mirror.
"What is that mirror?" Videl asked as she flew over.
"It's a sealing mirror," Gohan replied calmly.
"A sealing mirror?" Lagss repeated as she joined them.
"Yes."
"Then why didn't you use it earlier?" Videl asked.
"I forgot for a moment, and it consumes a large amount of energy to use."
"I see. Where did you even get it?"
Gohan smiled faintly.
"Like the Shadow Battle Axe, this mirror can change size at will."
Videl looked half-convinced but said nothing more.
At that moment, Gotenks regained consciousness.
"Brother Gohan, Sister Videl, Sister Lagss!"
They nodded.
Moments later, Gotenks defused back into Goten and Trunks.
"Brother, where's Aracki?" Goten asked.
"I've sealed him inside the sealing mirror."
"The sealing mirror?"
Just then, Majin Buu arrived.
"Majin Buu!"
"That's great, Goten. You're all okay!"
Goten nodded.
"Brother Gohan, can you tell us what happened?" Trunks asked.
"Sure."
Gohan explained everything briefly.
"Should we release Aracki and destroy him completely?" Goten asked.
"No. I have other plans for him."
"Other plans?"
"First, we need to gather the Dragon Balls and revive those who were killed."
"Right!"
The group went to Bulma's house to borrow the Dragon Radar and search for the Dragon Balls.
After collecting all seven, they summoned Shenron and wished back everyone who had died in Aracki's attack.
Later, on Mount Paozu.
After the others left, Gohan released Aracki from the mirror.
Aracki looked around cautiously.
"Where am I?"
"You're on Earth," Gohan replied calmly.
"Earth?"
"That's right."
