Chapter 52 - Chapter 52: Battle Against Videl

"Gohan, have you registered yet?"

"Not yet!" Gohan shook his head.

"Then let's go register now."

"Okay!"

Gohan nodded.

With that, Goku and the others headed to the registration area.

Because of the huge crowd, they had to stand in line for quite a while before finally reaching the counter.

"Name?"

"Son Goku."

"Age?"

"Twenty-nine."

"Address?"

"West City."

"Next!"

"Name?"

"Son Gohan."

"Age?"

"Ten."

"Only ten?" The clerk looked surprised.

"Yep!"

"According to World Martial Arts Tournament rules, contestants under fifteen must enter the youth division."

"The youth division?"

"That's right. It's a newly added rule."

"…"

Gohan was speechless.

He was clearly the strongest among them, yet he was stuck in the kids' bracket.

Goku chuckled, "Well then, Gohan, just go win the youth division."

Gohan nodded and stepped aside.

It was boring, but he'd only come along to make everyone happy anyway.

Because there were few participants, Gohan finished registering in just a few minutes.

Soon after, he spotted some familiar faces.

"Uncle Krillin!"

Krillin grinned, "Long time no see, Gohan!"

Just then, Goku and Chi-Chi walked over.

"Krillin! Tien! Yamcha! Chiaotzu!"

"Goku!"

Goku nodded.

"Krillin, you just arrived?"

"Yeah. Have you registered?"

"We're done."

"Good! We'll sign up and catch up later."

"Alright."

Not long after, Krillin and the others finished registering as well.

At that moment, an announcement echoed through the venue the youth division matches were about to begin.

"Youth division?" Krillin looked confused.

Goku nodded, "Anyone under fifteen has to compete there."

"Under fifteen… so Gohan…"

Goku nodded again.

"Dad, Uncle Piccolo, I'm heading over."

Goku smiled.

"Go bring back the youth division championship, Gohan!" Chi-Chi said excitedly.

Gohan gave a helpless smile and nodded.

Youth champion? If age weren't a restriction, he could win the adult division without even trying.

He headed toward the youth arena.

Facing nothing but children, he advanced to the finals effortlessly.

His final opponent was a girl around his age—Videl, the daughter of Mr. Satan.

Despite being only ten, she was already as tall as Gohan.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" The announcer's voice boomed.

"After an exciting morning, we've reached the youth division finals! The finalists are ten-year-old Son Gohan and Videl!

Though young, both come from famous fighting families—especially Son Gohan, whose father, Son Goku, is the reigning World Martial Arts Tournament champion!"

"The champion's son?!" In the stands, Mr. Satan immediately grew nervous.

"So… who are you cheering for?" The announcer shouted.

"GOHAN!"

"VIDEL!"

The crowd roared.

"Then let the youth division final—begin!"

"Hah!" Videl rushed forward aggressively.

Gohan stood still.

"System, how many moves should I take?"

"…"

The System stayed silent.

"Master, decide for yourself."

By then, Videl had already closed the distance and swung a powerful side kick.

Gohan shifted slightly and dodged.

Videl clenched her teeth and launched a flurry of punches.

"One… two… three…"

Gohan calmly counted as he avoided each strike.

When she reached the tenth attack, Gohan finally moved.

He swung his arm lightly.

A violent gust of wind blasted Videl straight off the platform.

The announcer froze.

The audience froze.

They had expected an intense fight not an instant victory. But in the end, these were still children.

"Owowow…"

Videl stood up, rubbing her sore backside.

"Videl is out of bounds! Son Gohan wins! He is the youth division champion and receives one million zeni!"

"Yes! Gohan won!" Chi-Chi jumped up excitedly.

Krillin and the others laughed. With Gohan's strength, even the adult championship would've been effortless.

"Piccolo, Gohan's finished. Let's head to our match area."

Piccolo nodded.

They left the stands.

Back on the platform, Gohan walked over to Videl.

"You okay?"

"I'm fine… but how did you beat me?"

"It was fist-force."

"Fist-force?"

"The wind created by my punch."

"Wind… from a punch? You're joking, right?"

Gohan smiled, "Believe whatever you want."

Videl snorted, "Son Gohan, next time we meet, I won't lose."

"Deal." Gohan grinned.

Seeing that smile, Videl frowned, "What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing. I'm just happy I won."

Videl said nothing more.
