"I got you," Vegeta said as his body turned into dust and disappeared and Buu looked horrified.
"I can't recover. What is going on?" Buu said in shock.
The attack that Vegeta used in exchange for his life was so powerful that Buu's cells continued to burn even after the attack was finished.
It would take an hour or more before Buu could regenerate his body.
But despite this, no one is willing to fight Buu even with most of his body gone as he was still the most powerful being on earth.
"Curse that Vegeta. Not only did he damage my body to this extent, I also couldn't even absorb his power." Buu was very angry.
--------------------------------
Back at Kami's lookout.
"Vegeta died," Piccolo said in shock.
Chichi, Bulma, Bra, Videl, Yamcha, Krillin, 18, Marron, Shin, Kibito, Dende, Mr Popo, Master Roshi, Yajirobe, Oolong, Paur are all there as they wait for the situation to unfold.
Goten and Trunks were still knocked out from their energy getting absorbed and it seemed like they would not wake up anytime soon.
"Vegeta died." Tears started to fall from Bulma's face when she heard Piccolo's words.
"Dragon balls. Can't we just use the dragon balls to revive my Daddy?" Bra asked as she grabbed her mother's dress.
She is normally spoiled but she returned to just being a little girl when she heard about her father's fate.
"I am not entirely certain. If his soul is still not cleansed we have a shot. If it's already been cleansed and entered the reincarnation cycle it would have been too late." Piccolo said.
"Vegeta has done so many bad things in his life so his soul getting cleansed immediately after dying is a possibility." Piccolo continued.
"What about my Gohan? And what happened to Goku?" Chichi asked in a desperate voice.
"I am not sure about Gohan's situation. But Goku is still alive." Piccolo said.
"Damn it. I want to help them fight this new enemy but ....." Yamcha said in anger.
"If only we were stronger." Krillin was also angry but even Android 18 who is one of the strongest beings in the world would not be able to take on someone that Goku and Vegeta could not beat.
At that moment someone arrived.
It was Tien Shinhan and Chaiotzu.
But the one who Tien brought was someone that everyone was hoping to survive.
"Goku," Chichi said as he ran to aid him.
"Chichi," Goku replied.
He was not unconscious. It's that that he is paralyzed temporarily.
"Here Goku have a Senzu bean," Yajirobe said as he gave the Senzu bean to Chichi.
"Is that the last one?" Goku asked.
"Well, there are still two left," Yajirobe replied.
"Then that will be enough," Goku said.
"Piccolo. I want you to take the kids into the Hyper Bolic Time Chamber. Fusion is the only way we can take down Buu." Goku said.
"Fusion?" Piccolo asks.
"Goku san. Where is Gohan?" Chichi asked Goku in the midst of all of the chaos.
"He was absorbed by Buu," Goku replied.
"Buu. What the hell is Buu?" Chichi asked Goku.
------------------------------
"Uhh." Goten opened his eyes and noticed that he was on a bed.
He looked around and saw Trunks who was sleeping near him.
"You are awake." Yamcha and Paur greeted the boys.
"Yamcha?" Goten asked.
He was not entirely sure about Yamcha's identity since he had never seen him before but when he saw a blue cat floating near him so he made a guess.
"So you are Goten," Yamcha said as he rubbed Goten's head.
"Where am I?" Goten asked.
"You are in a place called the Hyper Bolic Time Chamber. Currently, there is a threat outside that even your dad could not deal with," Yamcha explained.
"Piccolo and Goku are outside to guard this place while I and Puar teach you this technique called Fusion dance," Yamcha said to Goten.
Goten realized what was happening.
Majin Buu has awakened.
But he tries to calm himself down. Knowing that Gohan will get his Ultimate form.
He thought that as long as he did not let him and Trunks get absorbed by Buu they would win without having to get to a situation where Goku had to use a Spirit Bomb.
He didn't know that the story that he knew had been altered to the point where he could not rely on Gohan, Goku or Vegeta anymore.
"We will wait until Trunks got up. Then we will start our training." Yamcha said to Goten.
-----------------------------
At that time in a place called the scared world of Kais.
"Where are we?" Bra asked.
Bra, Dende and Marron are taken to this place by Supreme Kai as the earth is too dangerous for them to live.
Bra was chosen to come here personally by the Supreme Kai himself as he saw the potential inside her.
Marron and Dende are there because all the people from the lookout asked the Supreme Kai to take them away.
Dende is the reason why dragon balls exist and Krillin and 18 wanted to protect Marron from the threat of Majin Buu.
"Supreme Kai. Why did you bring all the mortals here? Since Buu is released there is no hope for the universe. We should have just let them perish with their planet." Kibito said to Shin.
"Kibito. Apologise to our guests." The Supreme Kai said to Kibito.
He looked angry so Kibito bowed at Bra, Marron and Dende.
"I am sorry." He said.
"It's alright," Marron replied.
"What do you mean it's alright? He told us to die with our planet." Bra was angry. She just lost her dad and now an ugly old man was telling her to die along with her planet.
"Calm down. Being angry would not do any good." Dende said as he tried to calm down Bra.
Despite her small size, she is only weaker than Shin here so if she decided to go after Kibito a huge fight would have occurred.
"Follow me," Shin said as he led the group towards a place where a sword was located.
"Supreme Kai. Surely you are not thinking of doing that." Kibito said in shock as soon as he saw the sword.
"Young lady. I wanted you to try pulling the sword out." Shin said to Bra with a smile on his face.
