Goten was caught off guard as the Grand Priest suddenly appeared before him. Instinctively, he raised his arms to block the incoming attack.
BANG!!!
The impact sent Goten hurtling backward like a streak of light. The force of the blow reverberated across the battlefield, shaking the very fabric of the dimension.
The Grand Priest seized the moment, summoning a barrage of energy waves that hurtled toward Goten with immense speed.
Reacting swiftly, Goten clenched his fists and stopped mid-air, weaving through the torrent of energy with precision.
As Goten dodged, the Grand Priest's form flickered, appearing behind him in an instant.
Sensing the movement, Goten rolled his left eye backward, anticipating the attack, and swung his right elbow sharply.
The Grand Priest smirked as his body shimmered, becoming translucent.
"A clone!" Goten muttered, his strike cutting through thin air.
Before Goten could fully process the evasion, the Grand Priest materialized to his left, delivering a precise kick to Goten's chin.
Bang!!!
The force of the kick tilted Goten's head upward, sending him reeling backward.
Not relenting, the Grand Priest followed up with a powerful punch to Goten's abdomen, eliciting a sharp scream. Goten's body flew like a meteor, carving through the air before crashing into the ground.
Gritting his teeth, Goten slowed his descent, stopping mid-air as he gasped for breath.
"Ahhh!!!" he roared, reigniting his aura. In a flash, Goten accelerated, breaking past the speed of light as he charged toward the Grand Priest.
In a heartbeat, Goten was upon him, unleashing a flurry of punches at blinding speed. The Grand Priest dodged gracefully, parrying the blows and stepping back with measured precision.
Suddenly, Goten pivoted and unleashed a powerful sideways kick with his right foot, striking the Grand Priest squarely on his side.
Bang!!!
The impact sent the Grand Priest skidding to the left, though he quickly regained his balance and launched himself back at Goten.
The two clashed again, exchanging blows with such ferocity that shockwaves rippled outward, distorting the air around them.
BANG BANG BANG!!!
Goten retreated under the onslaught, blocking as best he could, though each strike from the Grand Priest carried immense weight.
Finally, the Grand Priest delivered a punishing kick, sending Goten flying backward once more.
Recovering quickly, Goten slammed his feet into the ground to halt his momentum, though his body trembled from the exertion.
If it weren't for my infinite stamina and recovery abilities from Majin Buu, I'd have collapsed already, Goten thought. But even the Grand Priest's strength must be waning after all this.
A flicker of excitement crossed Goten's face. If I defeat him now, I should be able to unlock the Super Saiyan 8 Advanced Card!
"Ahhh!!!"
With a renewed roar, Goten's silver-white aura surged around him, glowing with intensified brilliance.
The Grand Priest narrowed his eyes. "Such immense power..."
BANG!!!
Goten disappeared from his original position, reappearing in front of the Grand Priest in an instant.
The Grand Priest teleported, dodging to mid-air, but Goten was relentless. He followed, his fists blurring into phantom-like strikes that surrounded the Grand Priest.
This technique was Janemba's superpower—an ability to overwhelm with countless afterimages of attacks.
The Grand Priest chuckled softly, vanishing once more and reappearing behind Goten.
Sensing the shift, Goten spun, but it was too late.
The Grand Priest delivered a swift kick to Goten's back, sending him flying forward.
Goten screamed but quickly regained his composure, stopping mid-air. His breathing was labored, his energy stretched thin.
"It looks like I have no choice but to give it my all," Goten muttered, turning to face the Grand Priest.
The Grand Priest observed him with a confident smile, his composure unshaken.
Goten smirked in return, vanishing in a blur of motion.
The Grand Priest readied himself, raising a fist to counter the incoming attack. But before he could act, Goten activated the power of time, freezing the Grand Priest's movements.
"This is…" the Grand Priest murmured, his eyes narrowing as he realized the technique.
Seizing the moment, Goten struck the Grand Priest's abdomen with a powerful punch, sending him flying backward.
The Grand Priest recovered mid-air, his expression curious as he stared at Goten.
"Goten, how do you have the power of time?"
"Supreme Kai of Time taught it to me," Goten replied. "I haven't used it much until now."
The Grand Priest touched his chin thoughtfully. "Interesting. Even as the steward of the Zeno family, my understanding of time manipulation is limited."
Goten chuckled. "I didn't use it before because I wasn't confident I could defeat you. But now…"
"You believe you can win?" the Grand Priest asked, his smile widening.
"Yes," Goten said, his eyes blazing with determination.
"Very well," the Grand Priest said, his aura flaring. "Show me what you're capable of!"
The two charged at each other, meeting in a collision of power that shook the dimension.
BANG!!!
Their battle resumed with renewed intensity. Goten unleashed everything he had, combining his Ultra Instinct and time-freezing abilities to push the Grand Priest further than ever.
The Grand Priest, now on guard, moved with heightened awareness, countering Goten's strategies.
Suddenly, Goten activated Time Freeze again, halting the Grand Priest mid-attack.
But this time, the Grand Priest anticipated the move, vanishing just before the technique could take hold.
" Time Freeze "Goten shouted, expanding the effect to freeze the surrounding space.
Caught off guard, the Grand Priest was momentarily immobilized.
Taking advantage, Goten spun and struck the Grand Priest squarely in the chest with his right elbow.
The Grand Priest let out a grunt of pain, staggering backward as he clutched his chest.
