At the Kame house.
"Oh. So you are going to be entering the tournament too." Bra said to Andriod 18.
When she is not tormenting Goten or spending time shopping and reading Bra usually spends her time at Kame's house.
It was the place Marron her best friend lived there.
It was also surrounded by sea making it an ideal place to relax.
"Hmm. I wonder if I should participate too." Bra said.
"Please don't. Since Piccolo is also going to participate I don't even know if I can get fifth place. If another Saiyan participate in it I would be lucky to even make it to the knockout rounds." Kurullin said to Bra.
"They are separating kids and adults. So you don't have to worry about that." Bra said to Kurullin.
"Really." Kurullin was a relief when he heard about it.
"Why don't you participate too? Marron." Bra said to her friend.
"No way. You can Turn into Super Saiyan and I just started training. I would be burned to toast." Marron said to Bra.
The truth is that Bra would not be able to keep up with Goten and Trunks even if she is insanely gifted. That is if she did not have a Master.
Vegeta didn't train her as he didn't want her to get hurt so she had to find an alternative.
However, there was no one on Earth that would be powerful enough to train a Saiyan kid apart from Vegeta and Piccolo.
Other than the two warriors that are as strong as them.
Android 17 and 18.
Android 17 usually stays in a faraway place on an unknown island because of his work and his ki could not be sensed so it was extremely hard to search for him.
So Bra decided to train under Android 18 who stays in Kame's house with her husband, daughter and her husband's master.
She agrees after Bra gives her money for training lessons.
However unlike Goten and Trunks who trained over 12 hours a day for seven days straight Bra usually trains for about two hours on the weekend.
And her training time is even less than that if there is something she wants to do on that day.
"Why don't you enter too? It could be a good experience." Kurullin said to Marron.
"You can just give up if it's too much for you. I mean although Goten, Trunks and Bra are entering it means that you have to avoid only three people. This means that you could at least even make it to the final if you are lucky enough." Krillin said to Marron.
18 was not against Kurullin's suggestion nor she supported it.
She did not want to see her daughter hurt but she knew that what Kurullin said was right.
"Fine. But I am giving up as soon as I meet any of you three." Marron said to Bra.
Like father like daughter. Android 18 thought as she looked at her husband and daughter.
------------------------------
At that time.
Goten looked at Trunks who was sparring with Vegeta in his Super Trunks state(Super Saiyan grade 2).
Trunks can use Perfected Super Saiyan but he usually uses Super Saiyan grades 2 and 3 over it as he prefers the extra power that comes with the transformation.
While Goten sticks to Perfected all the time.
However, Goten was able to match Trunks's firepower now even if he was in Grade 3 as his growth was quicker than Trunks.
Currently, he is the stronger one among the two by a decent margin.
Trunks is strong enough to defeat Perfect Cell before he becomes a super perfect cell but it is still not enough to match Goten who can be compared to Gohan in his prime.
But what is surprising is Vegeta's strength.
If Goten was a 5 when it comes to strength Vegeta would be a 7 while current Gohan and Trunks would be 3.
Not only that Goten predicted that Vegeta could stack up to 10 if he was enraged.
He was not sure of how strong Goku would be in Ssj3 but he expected it to be around 12.
This means he did not expect Vegeta to win even in ideal conditions but he was still surprised by his growth.
As Vegeta was not even comparable to ssj 2 Goku without Marjin boost in the original timeline.
While this Vegeta would beat ssj2 Goku without much difficulty.
As Goten was thinking about the strength of his possible opponents, his phone rang.
It was Chichi.
"Hello. Mom." Goten answered.
"Goten. Did Gohan tell you about the tournament?" Chichi asked him.
"Yes," Goten replied.
"Are you excited? You are going to meet your dad." Chichi said.
Goten could hear the joy in her voice as he smiled.
Mom must really like Dad. Goten thought in his mind.
"I heard from Gohan that are going to participate in the tournament right?" Chichi asked Goten.
"Don't spend the prize money on too much candy. But more importantly. Don't get hurt." Chichi said to Goten.
"Don't worry mom. I won't." He lied as he breathed.
He knew that things were going messy in the tournament and he had no intention of sitting out.
-----------------------------------------
At the Capsule Corporation.
Trunks continued to train in the gravity chamber even after Goten and Vegeta stopped training.
He was training under 300 gravity which is something that even Vegeta would struggle to train under.
"I have to become stronger." Trunks said as he motivated himself.
He knew he was lacking compared to Goten but he didn't want to lose.
He knew he had to become stronger.
He was desperate and it was showing.
After Goten wished for the tail, his growth accelerated leaving Trunks behind.
The gap between Trunks and Goten continued to grow since then until it reached the current point.
More. I have to push my body more. Trunks thought as he endured the hash training.
Until he collapsed. Due to exhaustion.
Luckily for him, Mai saw that he was knocked out of the gravity chamber and was able to get him out before he sustained any major injuries.
"Trunks. Are you okay?" She asked.
"Mai. Is that you?" Trunks asked as he got up.
"I told you not to push yourself too much. What if I was not there? You could have gotten seriously injured." Mai scolded Trunks.
