Gohan could gain better control over his emotions during training with Whis. This is important because in battle, a clear - headed fighter is more likely to succeed. Whis could teach Gohan how to stay calm under pressure, which would enhance his performance in fights. Also, Gohan may learn some unique moves that are exclusive to Whis' training regime.
The theme of isolation also pops up. Sometimes, Gohan isolates himself to train, away from his loved ones. This gives him the space and focus he needs, but also creates internal conflicts as he struggles with the loneliness that comes with such intense training.
In this fanfiction, Gohan and Videl could start training together in a new environment, like a hidden valley.

But as time passes, he starts to adapt and even surprises Broly with his growth. They could form an unlikely bond through this training process, which could be a central theme of the fanfic.
One possible plot could be that Naruto and Gohan start training together. Naruto is amazed by Gohan's Saiyan power and Gohan is intrigued by Naruto's ninja skills.

Eventually, they team up to face a common enemy that threatens both their worlds.
One popular 'Gohan keeps training' fanfiction is 'Gohan's Ascent'. In this story, Gohan embarks on a journey of self - discovery through his intense training regime. He faces various challenges and overcomes them, growing both in strength and character.
Another challenge would be the level of power they start at. Gohan has extremely high power levels as a Saiyan, especially if he has access to his Super Saiyan forms. Naruto, while very powerful in his own right, might find it hard to keep up at first. This could lead to feelings of inadequacy on Naruto's part and pressure on Gohan to not accidentally harm Naruto during training.
