I'm Gohan!

"Uh…" Gohan sighed as he pondered with half-closed eyes, a month had already passed in the hyperbolic time chamber.

All this time he spent meditating on the floor, trying to make his body, mind and spirit adapt to the conditions in the room.

Since the most difficult thing was not to make the body resist, but to make the spirit capable of withstanding the endless emptiness of that place.

Piccolo used the first three weeks to adjust to the environment. Right now, his body was supporting the gravity and pressure of the room.

Once he achieved that, he decided to call Gohan to fight him, but seeing that he was meditating, he trained on his own.

He created a clone and began to fight with it for several hours. When he got tired, he would go back to the living area to rest and then come back.

But he knew it was insufficient for him. He was tempted to launch an attack at Gohan but at the same time he was curious as to what the brat was doing.

'Looks like I'm ready now' the boy finally opened his eyes and slowly got up from the ground, "It's time to test my power... HAAA!"

Piccolo stopped training him when he felt a huge Ki and turning around he saw an explosive aura surrounding Gohan. So he smiled slightly.

'He has become more powerful than he was, that brat is not common!' Piccolo walked towards him, eager to see the result of his meditation.

"Yes! This is amazing!" the boy jumped high feeling quite light, "My body feels light, but I'm not fully adapted yet"

He still had to work his body quite a bit under this gravity. In the manga, Goku performed difficult physical exercises to strengthen himself.

'I don't want to demand too much from my body either, if I overtrain the consequences wouldn't be so good' Gohan reasoned cautiously.

He really had no desire to end the entire year there in the room. With the overload of gravity, the scant air in the place, added to the ultra divine water... he would need a little rest.

He was only four years old! Such a sudden load on his body wouldn't be good. But for now, he would take advantage of the time he would spend in there.

"Hey brat! Fight me!" Piccolo yelled crossing his arms. Gohan looked up at the Namekian, "Let's see how strong you are now!"

"Aren't you afraid it will end like last time?" Gohan asked with a smirk and Piccolo looked at him with a vein on his forehead.

The minor scrutinized him and realized that Piccolo's power had grown enormously, reaching almost a thousand units in just one month.

And that was pretty good, Piccolo's power doubled in no time. But Gohan's current strength was extremely monstrous.

'My maximum power exceeds a thousand units!' exclaimed the minor with a big smile seeing how Piccolo threw a ball of energy at him.

Piccolo was stunned when his attack pierced through Gohan, as if he were a hologram. He gritted his teeth in annoyance at that.

"Come on! It was just a cheap trick!" the little boy's voice sounded behind him and then he extended his arm to reach him, but missed on the spot.

The minor saw that there was a hole in the Namekian's defense and stretched out his leg to kick his side. And he didn't realize that this was a trap.

"You fell dwarf" Piccolo whispered, catching the boy's leg, who widened his eyes for having been such an idiot, "Now you'll pay what you did to me before!"

And he began to spin around Gohan's body, just like he did on his day. But Piccolo wouldn't be merciful as he was.

PAM!

"Ugh…" Gohan groaned in pain as Piccolo's fist slammed into his stomach, and he was instantly thrown into the air by the Namek.

"Gaah!" Piccolo yelled, launching a blast of energy from his mouth that hit the little boy squarely. An explosion resounded in the place.

Piccolo crossed his arms with a smile, he was finally able to give the brat back the humiliation he had made him suffer. He now felt calm.

'He shouldn't be able to get up for at least several hours' Piccolo sat on the ground to meditate, but he felt something a bit strange.

He looked up and noticed that the smoke from the explosion was dissipating. And then, he saw the lesser Son sheltered with his arms crossed.

"Uh, if I hadn't raised my Ki I'm sure I'd be hurt now" Gohan smiled nervously and fixed his eyes on Piccolo, "Hey, I'm here!"

"What?! That attack contained all my power" demanded the namekian without understanding how that dwarf had been able to resist it.

He was sure that he hadn't dodged it. He had seen how Gohan greeted him directly, so how come he came out totally intact?

"Kiai Keshi, I simply increased my power to the maximum to neutralize your attack" the boy replied with a slight shrug.

In the manga, it was usual for an attack not to affect someone with a higher power. But Gohan resorted to Kiai Keshi, or 'Ki erasing'.

Piccolo felt as if Gohan was taunting him, so clenching his teeth he began to fire several Ki blasts at him.

Gohan received them all directly, he wanted to push his durability to the limit just like his father did in his training for Namek.

And what's better than receiving several attacks from someone with almost a thousand units of power? And so he didn't avoid them, he would continue to put up with them.

"That foolish dwarf wasn't lying...so his power is still superior to mine?" With that thought, Piccolo got even angrier.

Gohan raised his eyebrows in surprise as Piccolo brought two fingers to his forehead to gather energy; he intended to throw the Special Beam Cannon at him.

'That will make it more interesting' Gohan inquired going towards Piccolo, of course he wouldn't give him time to complete that deadly attack.

Piccolo noticed that and smiled closing his eyes. Suddenly a clone came out of his body and flew towards Gohan, much to the younger Son's surprise.

"What the hell?!" Gohan didn't have time to react as Piccolo's clone grabbed him completely immobilizing him, "Damn!"

"You fell into my trap brat, you won't be able to break free!" Piccolo commented with a devilish smile and Gohan's face discolored.

With a shout, Piccolo fired his Special Beam Cannon towards Gohan, who had no choice but to receive the attack, but he knew that it wouldn't affect him that much.

Another explosion resounded and soon a layer of smoke covered the area. Piccolo breathed a little agitated, he had used up a good part of his Ki.

'I don't think he was able to resist it' Piccolo expressed himself looking at the smoke still present, 'That was my most dangerous attack'

Although he had not gathered all the Ki possible, he was still powerful. If Gohan had been able to withstand it…he didn't want to imagine it.

"But there's something you didn't count on" the boy's voice sounded through the smoke and Piccolo's body tensed when he heard him, "You look like a rookie!"

After a few seconds, Gohan's body became visible. He had some superficial injuries but none were serious.

'This is impossible! Not even Goku had that inexplicable stamina!' Piccolo was speechless, this child never ceased to amaze him.

"By creating that clone you lost a certain amount of energy, and therefore the Special Beam Cannon would also lose power. Nor did you concentrate enough Ki to cause me great damage" Gohan sentenced the Namekian's mistakes.

His words were a bucket of cold water for Piccolo. He couldn't believe the fact that Gohan had seen such weakness. When did he do it?

Not that Gohan was a fortune teller. Only that watching the original series he had deduced several details, and now they would be extremely useful to him.
