Son Gohan attends a celebratory banquet hosted by Mr. Satan at a newly constructed hotel, set approximately two years after Kid Buu's defeat. Wearing a blue suit as formal attire, he helps convince his father, Goku, to attend by mentioning the "all you can eat" offer, leveraging Goku's appetite. When alien threats Abo and Kado arrive and confront the heroes, Gohan is among the first to detect their presence through ki sensing. During the battle, he provides tactical guidance to Goten and Trunks, accurately pinpointing the real Abo and Kado amidst their doppelgänger attacks to give his brother and Trunks the advantage. Gohan maintains a supportive role, refraining from direct combat. He declines to intervene physically when offered, respecting Goten and Trunks' desire to handle the fight. After the merged form Aka is defeated and the hotel is damaged, Gohan participates in the banquet's continuation amid the rubble alongside the others. This portrayal reflects Gohan's established traits: he prioritizes family and academics over combat but employs his intellect and battle experience to aid allies when necessary. His attire and demeanor align with his identity as a scholar, consistent with his development following the Buu arc.
