Who Will Defeat Majin Buu? The Mightiest of Men Moves Out!

Gotenks arrives at Majin Buu's location radiating supreme confidence, absolutely certain that his fused power is more than sufficient to destroy the pink menace. The young warrior launches into an aggressive assault, displaying impressive speed and strength that genuinely catches Buu's attention for the first time. For a brief stretch of the battle, Gotenks appears to be holding his own, trading blows with the Majin and even landing a few clean hits that visibly surprise the creature. But the gap in power becomes apparent as the fight drags on. Majin Buu absorbs the punishment without lasting concern and retaliates with force that sends Gotenks tumbling across the landscape. The fusion warrior barely manages to disengage and escape with his life intact after Buu launches a devastating all-out offensive.

The World's Military Responds

In a parallel development, Earth's armed forces make one final desperate attempt to stop Majin Buu through conventional military power. Tanks, fighter jets, and heavy artillery converge on the Majin's position from multiple directions in a coordinated strike. Buu treats the entire assault as afternoon entertainment, swatting missiles out of the air and deflecting shells with casual flicks of his hand. The military's complete and total failure only reinforces what the Z Fighters already understand: only extraordinary, superhuman power has any chance of challenging this creature.

The World Martial Arts Champion, Mr. Satan, reluctantly approaches Majin Buu's dwelling after being pressured by public expectation. Armed with an assortment of carefully hidden explosives, poisoned chocolate, and various tricks all disguised as friendly gifts, Satan intends to defeat the monster through deception and reclaim his reputation as Earth's greatest fighter. Predictably, his "attacks" are laughably ineffective. The explosives barely singe Buu's skin, and the poison has no effect on a creature with no conventional biology. But rather than destroying the bumbling human, Buu finds the entire spectacle genuinely and thoroughly amusing. He decides to keep Mr. Satan around as a personal servant, entertainer, and source of ongoing comic relief.

What begins as a pure survival strategy for Mr. Satan, who is simply trying to avoid being killed by the most powerful being on Earth, gradually evolves into something genuinely unexpected. Buu's childlike and impressionable personality responds positively to Satan's constant, exaggerated attention and theatrical reactions. The relationship is absurd by every conceivable measure: a world-destroying monster of limitless power keeping the planet's most famous fraud as a combination pet, servant, and court jester. Yet this bizarre and improbable dynamic will prove to have profound consequences that absolutely no one, least of all Mr. Satan himself, could have predicted or imagined.
