Dabura insults Majin Buu, and with a single blow, Buu dispatches with the King of the Demons. Goku and Vegeta feel Buu's surge of power, and Goku convinces Vegeta to postpone the fight until they can take out Buu. Vegeta says he doesn't want Goku distracted while they're fighting. As Goku is preparing to leave, Vegeta knocks him out with a blow to the head and takes the final senzu bean, and promises to kill Buu himself. Babidi's first order to Majin Buu is to kill Gohan and the supreme kai. Gohan grabs Shin and takes off, but even with their head start, Buu catches up to them with blinding speed. With a single blow, Buu puts Gohan out of commission, leaving the Supreme Kai unguarded.
