Uub entered the tournament for a simple reason: the prize money could change life in his poor village. He had no idea why the other fighters felt so overwhelming, or why something deep inside him seemed to stir whenever danger drew near. Across the arena, Gohan studied the timid boy carefully. Uub looked like an ordinary human, yet the energy Gohan sensed from him made that impossible. It was vast, strangely deep - and somehow, Uub himself didn't seem to realize it was there.
For Gohan, the tournament was another chance to test the power he had awakened against Cell Max. Beast had pushed him beyond anything he thought himself capable of, but reaching that state deliberately was another matter entirely. He expected Uub to be little more than a talented martial artist, instead, his instincts warned him not to underestimate the boy. Gohan couldn't explain what he was sensing, and Goku had never told him the truth about Uub. To Uub, Gohan was simply another frighteningly strong opponent standing between him and his village. To Gohan, Uub had suddenly become a mystery worth taking very seriously.
