Over the last couple of weeks before the end of the school year Joseph had been spending most of the hours outside of school training under Roshi and Kami and looking for fights to learn how to harness his new strength properly. The process steady and now he was currently able to tap into 50% without issues. He had come across Goku across Goku Senior in West City not too long ago while meandering the streets and while talking Joseph found out that Goku was looking for a fight. This worked perfectly since Goku was on the list of people he wanted to fight for fun as well getting the hang of his new abilities.
The Saiyan and half-Saiyan agreed to take the fight somewhere barren due to their circumstances, with Joseph still struggling to contain his full strength and needing to go somewhere to hide from his harem. The two made their way to a canyon that lied beyond the borders of the major cities. The land was most made up of dirt and rock giving the surface of the ground a bit of a sandy fill over the hard and rough lands. There were little to no plants in the area, apart from a few groups of trees that stood towards the bottoms of the mountains.
Even terrain was seldom found in these lands covered in small hills and large mountains. On the search for the most even of land to avoid footing handicaps for either of them Joseph eventually found a hill that would suit this purpose well enough, traveling up the brae to the brow, and at the center of the crown, the Demi-Earthling looked around at the area pensively before deciding that this hill does for now.
Joseph went into his pocket and pulled out a capsule clicking the top, and, in a puff of smoke, a gray drone appeared. Joseph flipped a switch on its back and lifted it into the air. The Drone rose above the mountains and from the bottom, shot out beams from all directions spreading two miles before the beams merged and made a dome surrounding the two of them as a little extra insurance to keep the destructive potential contained and also shield them from Goku’s tenacious group of affectionate followers.
Joseph stood towards the end of the top of the mountain across from Goku and took a breath. Crossing his arms in front of himself and focusing, his aura manifested around him. Winds blew and circled him making a ring of dust circle around him. The child tensed as the ground began to tremor slightly. The child’s bangs stood up and shifted to yellow before his aura emerged around him, appearing as gentle yellow flame and his pupils transitioning to emerald. Joseph looked at himself critically. It was easier and faster than it usually was and much less energy, looks like he successfully took Anna’s lesson of managing energy for this heightened state.
“Alright, ready when you are,” Joseph said as he rose his arms and extended them outward, palms to the side with his left hand, while his opposite hand was held closer to his body. After Goku would signal he was ready to engage him, Joseph would move towards the Saiyan; once the elder Saiyan was in his reach, Joseph sent out a flurry of vertically fisted strikes at his stomach. The punches rolled over each other, each hand seamlessly switching, shooting forward, and retracting back. The blows started aimed at his stomach, and Joseph stepped to each side to assign them to each side of Goku’s ribs before closing the combination with an uppercut followed by his leg snapping at his gut to Goku reeling back with a side-kick.
Joseph brusquely set his foot back to the ground while taking a step away while drawing his hand back; his palm sparked and manifested a small ember that grew into a flame within his half half-opened hand. The Demi-Earthling stuck his arm forward, the volume of the fire expanded and made a sound akin to water boiling inside a tea kettle; with a huff, Joseph pushed his arm out further and threw a torrent of flames at Goku. The fire came out precise, coming out a meter wide. Joseph observed Goku’s movements as he guided his hand to direct the fire to the opposition while controlling the attack, the sound of a steaming kettle suddenly hissed with greater vigor, and the flames suddenly turned blue and turn brighter and hotter as well before slowly dissipating as Joseph put the fire to rest.
Joseph was relieved that he kept the flames under control this time. Though they were in a rocky canyon and far vegetation that could catch fire, the boy was happy to avoid making the mistake that almost caused a forest fire that was thankfully dealt with by Korra. Joseph waved his left arm to his right side as he balled his hand into a fist, faint chimes sounding as he charged ki into the closed hand. He then swiped his arm across his person, flinging out a half dozen bolts of energy in the vague shape of arrowheads. Two would came directly at Goku towards wherever the Saiyan happened to be positioned, while another two were shot more to one side by him and two more at the opposite side. If he didn’t move from them, they would explode against, and if he did evade the bolts, they would detonate around him. Damage wouldn’t be all they’d do if the bolts or explosions connected. They’d not only harm externally but internally. The explosions would send out many small needle-like pieces of ki that would pierce through Goku skin and rush through his body, the cuts would be small and not nearly as noticeable from the potential burns. They’d, however, dig into person and cut through points of ki fllowing within his body, leaving a residual effect of Goku’s ki draining more quickly and also impeding any means of healing himself for a brief period.
After that, Joseph lowered his stance and cupped his hands to his side. A ball of energy manifested and gradually expanded between palms before he thrust his hands at Goku, releasing a beach ball-sized sphere of ki at older Saiyan. It felt strange to use these heavier hitting energy techniques so early on or in such volume, if not for Anna’s instructions to exercise a higher degree of aggression, he would have relied on his martial arts at this stage of the battle, striking with basic combinations before retracting back to use his weapon or wait for Goku to press an attack of his own which he’d try to counter. Still, he trusted her teaching, and even Roshi had noted the ramifications that could come from limited aggression.
The child had to remind himself to keep their instruction in mind to implement into what he was doing, even if it was outside his usual predilections and didn’t feel natural for him initially. Joseph rose from his lowered posture and put his hands up to nose eye level to form a guard. The boy thought to himself, reflecting on how it wasn’t so strenuous to throw out those heavier hitting techniques. He tended to use the big moves very sparingly, and using too many of them tended to tire him, especially when doing them in a row, but he didn’t feel those attacks drawing too much from his pool of Spirit energy or his stamina. Maybe he received greater returns from his training than he expected, or perhaps it was a product of what Rose coined as his power augmentation; it could have been both. Either way, It would be helpful in this fight and fights in the future.

Goku hadn’t had all that much interaction with Joseph in the few months that they’d known each other. He wouldn’t really say they were friends or anything, just people that kept running into each other now and then. Goku had no need for friends in Joseph’s age group unless they were surprisingly strong like his son. The elder Saiyan had a feeling that joseph was strong and he supposed this fight was going to solidify whether Goku would respect him or not.
Things got off to a good start. Joseph transformed and Goku smirked as he took a position slightly further down the mountain. “I never would have figured that you were stronger than me,” he said when the full weight of the kid’s capabilities became clear. Goku was unaware of this elevated super Saiyan state so he just assumed it was super Saiyan 2. “Let’s hope this evens the playing field!” Goku shouted as he transformed as well. The ladies off in the far distance with binoculars were practically gushing at the chance to see a full on battle between two powerhouses.
Goku wanted to power up as well but he wasn’t given much of a chance. Joseph zipped right to him and started attacking him relentlessly. It was impressive for someone to be able to weave in five attacks in such a short period of time. Goku felt like he could read the attacks as if he himself had thrown them giving him a clue that they were about even in speed. He didn’t make much of an effort to negate the damage from the physical combo nor the fire, instead he drew his sword and tried to find any opening.
Unfortunately before he got a chance the kid had made enough distance to start firing off arrows the likes the elder had never seen before. He tried to weave between them as he charged towards Joseph but he got caught by a few in the shoulder and they exploded hurting like hell. Goku tumbled to the side and then continued his head on assault. He deflected the Kamehameha blast into the air as he ran, not wanting to ruin his momentum any more.
When Goku got close enough he spun like a top briefly with his sword extended. He more or less tried hitting Joseph with a slash targeted on his center of mass. As soon as he performed the third slash he slowed himself by digging his foot into the ground. The slowed momentum allowed Goku to aim his sword in an upwards slash pointed right at Joseph and from his blade he let loose a Ki Slash.
“Not bad kid. This all you got?” he’d ask as he speed teleported behind Joseph, leaving an after image in front of him. Goku then brought the sword back down with a final ki slash, hopefully catching the boy by surprise.

Joseph had gone in not expecting his initial attacks to all land with the success they had, he threw them out them out in effort to apply pressure upon the Saiyan, between this and decreased energy expenditure he was starting to see that using more heavy-duty techniques wasn’t not merely an approach to be dismissed as wasteful. “I never would have figured that you were stronger than me,” Goku said. “Most don’t,” Joseph replied. The Demi-Earthling watched as Goku transform as well taking the form of Super Saiyan 2.
Joseph gasped in surprise at seeing Goku assumed this extraordinary ascension beyond the state that was already associated with legends. He didn’t think that Goku achieved this transformation, though the power he currently exuded in this state was still marginally below Joseph’s own Super Saiyan it was still a fascinating transformation. The only other Saiyan he knew of capable of taking this super state was Anna. It was a variation of Super Saiyan displayed by the royal family of Planet Vegeta or Overlord Luther and there were no mentions of it in the Saiyan handbook. The boy had dreamt of becoming a Super Saiyan since the time he first became aware of the form and having achieved and now learning of levels beyond made the boy eager to strive for them, facing a Super Saiyan 2 drove the boy’s eagerness and excitement further. Joseph too a brief glance to the side feeling a copious amount of auras that came near the vicinity of the dome, he was surprised and little confused st the sight. "How do they keep finding you?" Joseph asked.
Goku moved in for his attack spinning at him like a top while sending his blade to slash through him. Joseph not wanting to be forced to back pedal from the attack stuck his hand out and made a blue bubble-like sphere of energy putting it in the way of the first slash. When the blade connected the sphere burst and splashed out a violent wave of energy that towards Goku. The force of the attack threatened to push him back while ensnaring in a cloak of light blue ki that would place a burden on him and making him unable to move or briefly have quite doing so. Akin to the arrows, the residual energy would invade him internally and disrupt the flow of his energy but rather than damaging his “spiritual circuit” per say it impede the ability of ki to flow through his body making it harder for him perform most maneuverers in his arsenal of techniques.
Joseph sprung back from his reared foot while before moving that same foot to the side to pivot and give him the space to lean back and escape the arc and reach of the second slash. “Not bad, kid is this all you got?” Goku said before becoming a blur to the boy as he maneuvered around to flank him, he focused following Goku’s energy signature as well as the blur which were his movements to not be fooled by the image left in front of him. Joseph tracked his movements and turned to follow them, making out that the Saiyan was coming for a downward ki slash.
Joseph responded by sticking his arm out and turning his open hand to point down, making a shape similar to the wing of bird and raising it up to intercept the arc of Goku’s attack meeting his forearm midway through it before circling his hand around the man’s wrist and slapping it away while leaning and moving away with a backflip to gain distance, drawing his weapon upon being right side up once again. This time the weapon wasn’t his power pole but a wooden staff, it was the wooden staff at six feet of length with a diamond shape section close to the top and another one towards the bottom. There were thin lines of openings on each side of the middle of the staff, out the sides of the diamond shaped sections and towards the bottom. Joseph held the weapon in both hands pointing the shaft of the cudgel towards Goku before rushing forward as he moved in he rose the staff over his head and snapped it down to crash atop the head of the elder before spinning in a Semi-circling handling the weapon like a baseball bat as he hurled it to slam across his body and send him tumbling across the mountain.

Goku felt a shiver throughout his body as the last of the ice fell from his person. He had never encountered that icy move before either, proving that this kid had plenty of surprises up his sleeve. Goku was most surprised that his attacks had both been thwarted even with his afterimage trick. It was annoying as fuck. That’s just how fights tended to be though.
“You’re a slippery bastard aren’t ya?” Goku asked as he opposed the polearm strikes with a free hand, taking the brunt of the force into his wrist joint instead of where Joseph intended to hit him. The hits still smacked him across the mountain but Goku was able to keep himself oriented properly the whole time.
When he gripped his blade with both hands once more he noticed that it hurt to even wrap his fingers all the way around the sword. “Just a few more and then I’ll put the sword away,” he thought as his body surged with energy. He power flew as fast as he could right towards Joseph and tried to strike him with an ultra slash before circling around and trying again with yet another ultra slash. Both strikes would be aimed at slashing Joseph in half horizontally, though Goku knew he would never be so lucky. Goku would then skid to a stop and put his sword in its sheath for the time being.
“You seem pretty skilled with that weapon. Wish I could say the same about myself. Tell you the truth I only started using a sword a few months ago. Always seemed a lot simpler to cut someone in half than to have to punch them all day. Well, in my head at least. In practice it never quite turned out that way.”

The snaring burst of energy along with his swift defensive movements allow Joseph to escape the cutting cyclone unharmed to the annoyance of his opponent. Joseph took it as a sign he was doing well, if you were not only avoiding harm but also trying the patience of the opposition you were doing something right in his book. “You’re a slippery bastard aren’t ya” Goku said.
“That’s what I’ve told,” Joseph answered. The energy of his opponent flared vigorously before Goku rushed in and attacked him with his sword again, his burst of speed surpassed the swiftness that he displayed before, Goku was already to close for Joseph pivot away from his slash this time so he instead held upward in both his hands while manifest a milky white barrier of ki around him. The force of the slash drove the child back nearly making him stumble over before he caught himself stomping a foot firmly on to the ground to stabilize his weight.
The Saiyan circled around him just as quickly as he first rushed in, escaping his line of sight briefly. Joseph turned and barely caught the Saiyan’s blade in the corner of his eye. He swung his cudgel to parry the weapon but it didn’t connected to the blade cleanly to where his blade would have been diverted, the sword glided over the staff only slowing down as it swiped across Joseph’s cutting into the middle of the gui and undershirt and grazing his stomach making Joseph wince and leap back in instinct to escape the reach of the blade. Between the shielding layer of energy, along with the resilience of the threads of his tonic and undershirt and his own physical resilience the blade didn’t cut very deep and hardly drew blood but those two slashes could have made for a bigger issue had Joseph been a little to respond.
The Demi-Earthling then pointed his weapon towards Goku with his hands towards the bottom of the cudgel and began rapidly jabbed it back and fourth like a spear in effort to pound the body of the Saiyan and drive him back to prevent him from rushing in with more sword attacks. After stopping the flurry of thrusts from his staff the boy turned the middle of the staff making a click before pulling it down to make the weapon contract down to the size of a night stick. Joseph then took one hand off his weapon and held an open palm towards Goku before launching a blast of energy that was vaguely shaped like a fist. If connect it would exploded immediately instead it would look as if the blast got absorbed into Goku’s body before exploding shortly.

Goku had to hand it to Joseph, he was holding his own fairly well. His battle instinct was on par with some of the most capable fighters Goku had ever gone up against. Instead of leaving himself open for follow up attacks the boy had been able to stave Goku back with the polearm. Not only that, Goku found that he’d been struck by a quick blast that was too fast to dodge. If only he hadn’t been moving so quickly he might have had a better chance at dodging.
The energy absorbed into Goku’s body and his entire body felt like it exploded at the same time. “Fucking hell!” Goku shouted as he roared. The ground underneath his feet was disintegrated from the explosion along with a good chunk of the face of the mountain, leaving a crescent shape permanently etched into the landscape.
Goku fell and did a superhero landing while drawing his blade once more. “Have I really become this dependent on weaponry that I can’t go two seconds without wielding it?” He asked as he gripped it once more between his hands. His body had taken considerable damage no doubt and his only recourse was to focus ki into the sword and heal himself. His body glowed slightly and his celestial wings extended as he was healed by his technique. By the time the debris cleared Goku would be ready to go again.
“I guess play time is over then,” Goku said, spitting out a mouthful of blood and pus. He roared and ran as fast as he could to Joseph and when he got close enough he let loose three incredibly strong attacks with his sword, one vertical, one horizontal, and one stab all aimed at his chest. After those he would chuck his sword as hard as he could right at Joseph’s stomach. Normally he wouldn’t dare aim to cause so much damage but the line between friendly fight and fight to the death was starting to blur.

That's some quick ass posting.
Critique The biggest thing that I want to draw attention to, since you guys are both quite new to battling, is that a defensive technique is not an auto win. You still need to put effort into the RP. I'll give you an example.
vs
Were this a serious fight and not an alliance training one, (and damage reports were a thing), Goku would be taking some damage from that.
RP Award I grade the RP in five areas for the purposes of the report - reading ease, spelling, grammar, punctuation and which RP I like reading the most. Joseph has been consistently winning the final point, but he is let down by his grammar and spelling. Goku's spelling, grammar and punctuation have been mostly on point and for that reason, the RP Award goes to Goku.
If y'all want a damage report, hit me up. Otherwise continue.

Goku’s shouting a curse and roaring took the boy by surprise. He didn’t think this fight was frustrating the Saiyan to this degree. The kid assumed that Goku was the type that knew how to take a beating calmly as not to let being in the disadvantaged position rile him up. Joseph felt Goku channeling his ki through his sword and regenerating himself; he could sense the subtle disruption of the energy flowing through his body. More ki left him than what should have been maintaining his form and using that healing sword technique, taking a moment to place his staff into the case over his shoulders. The residual effect of his ki arrows was taking its toll on the man. Joseph looked towards the Saiyan, who was reproaching his reliance on a weapon. The Demi-Earthling chose not to add commentary on what he had said. It wasn’t his place to speak on how other people fought. Goku was the expert on the fighter he wanted to be, and he’d decide whether he’d rely on weaponry or not. Goku’s conviction soon shined through as he rushed in to attack again. His speed caught the child off guard, allowing him to get close and begin his chain of slashes. Joseph weaved back in a vain attempt to avoid the first strike that cut into his tunic and torso underneath; he gritted his teeth in pain as a burning sensation rode up to his chest and then stepped back to prevent the second slash cutting too deep. After that, he shifted to the side, narrowly avoiding the stab from digging the blade into his gut. Joseph crossed his arms in front of his person, and his ki surged, encircling him in a golden flame. He then threw out his arms to each side as fire erupted from his person, expanding and taking the form of a dome that rapidly spread around the child, engulfing the Elder Saiyan. As the fire grew, it became hotter and brighter as it shifted from yellow and red to blue before the flames dissipated shortly after. Then the Saiyan had violently cast his rapier at the child; Joseph leaned while turning to the side, moving outside the path of the sword. He then snatched it by the handle before it completely passed him. With spun it in his hand, pointing the blade at Goku before flinging it at the Saiyan like a javelin, hurling it towards his side where it would graze across his abdomen if he failed to guard or evade. Joseph rocketed off towards the Saiyan being right behind the sword. He threw an uppercut at the stomach of the Saiyan, threatening to take him off of his feet and painfully wring the wind out of him, then proceeded with a left-handed hook at his left side followed by and right hook on his right side. A jab at his jaw and a quickly stepped back to close his combination. The Demi-Earthling then stuck his hand out displaying 4 bolts of ki in rapid succession, two curved towards on each side in a pincers while the other two came at the Saiyan from above. He then pulled the staff from his case, swinging it to sweep beneath Goku’s foot to knock him down before dropping while bringing the cudgel over his shoulders to crash over the head of the Saiyan with all his strength. He spun his staff again, putting the weapon under his arm as he stretched his hands out and made two yellow orbs of ki that slowly merged. Once they were brought together, Joseph fired a gilded blast that left a trail of light behind it at the Saiyan would crash into him if he didn’t move out way before then curving into the air with its trail slowly fading behind it. The orb sparked in the air before raining down a storm of energy bolts to relently bombard the Saiyan. Ki: 78% A1) Flame Shield[DR: 4][Critical: Burn][-2%ki]@a2-A4

Goku was tired of not having an advantage. Though he knew he had done some damage from his sword strikes he still felt like he had taken more damage than Joseph especially due to the flaming inferno he was subjected to from his final weapon attack. He had no way of seeing or sensing his sword that flew back at him. Before it passed by completely Goku grasped it in his hand and thought, “I can’t get rid of you can I?” It still sliced open his side and he curled a bit only to get whomped by Joseph’s follow up attack.
It was lucky that he’d managed to reobtain his blade because Goku was able to raise it just in time to block the beam balls much to the protest of his injured side. He winced and was forced to grab his side after that which was unfortunate because it made it all the harder to hold the blade against the polearm that quickly came towards his head. It was a shitty block but at least he was able to redirect the damage from his head to his shoulder.
The pain made Goku snap a little. He realized that if he was going to ever get an edge on this kid he was going to have to power up. He roared and his body surged with energy, powering up to its maximum potential. God knew he needed the ki at the rate he was going. In fact, he thought that he might be able to catch the boy off guard if he fired off a strong enough attack.
“I can’t believe I forgot my fucking sunstone shard at home,” he said as he desperately charged up a blast that could hope to meet the one coming right at him. He jumped back as he fired off his Kamehameha blast at Joseph’s attack and hoped for the best. Unfortunately he wouldn’t have a single second to switch to the offensive. He was going to have to start thinking about kicking things up a notch if he was going to turn the tides.

Goku had surprised the young fighter when he managed to repel the storm of blasts with a blast of his own, taking aim at the raining bolts and overtaking them with a large sphere of energy. Joseph put away his staff in the case on his shoulder and spread his feet apart to take a more bladed stance. Goku had been placed into a position where he couldn't press any offensive efforts of his own, and Joseph moved in to capitalize.
He rushed towards the Saiyan with his hand extended out and shot four ki blasts at the body of the Saiyan to pepper him with ranged attacks as he moved in before summoning an ember in his hand and shooting out a spray of fire at the Saiyan that spread to the sides taking the vague shape of the cone to cover the ground that surrounded the Saiyan, continuing to press forward, Joseph launched his right hand forward while empowering it with Ki to explode against Goku's jaw.
The ki empowered straight right was followed with a left hook across his jaw, then a right hook to the opposite side of his chin. The combination was brought to a close with an uppercut to the stomach and one more straight right aimed at his face trying to send him flying back with the punch to reopen the distance between them.
The Demi-Earthling cupped his hands while crotching slightly down as he charged ki between his hands. The hill's crown was bathed in azure as he gathered energy, and the blue ball of light expanded in his hands. Kaaaaaaaaaa-Meeeeeeeeeeeeeee-Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Joseph threw his hands forward, setting the beam free to rush across the mountain, kicking up dust in its path as it dug a trench on its way to overtake Goku. After he finished fire the blast, Joseph took a breath and focused, drawing from his reserves of ki to restore the energy he expended and tap into his full potential in preparation to bring this fight to a close.

Goku’s blade glowed once more and it was used to deflect the second shower of beam balls that were sent at its master. Goku tossed it aside once more and hoped that he would finally be rid of it this time. He had other things to attend to, like Joseph’s insistence to keep things close range. Goku was a in your face kind of guy, but this was too much!
“GAH!” he shouted as the heat made his body sweat almost as soon as Joseph started charging his punch. “You want to hit me with that? Oh hell no,” Goku said while Joseph approached. He debated using his arms but he decided to jump up a little and use his right thigh to block the impact of the Phalanx. Unfortunately there was a loud snapping sound that signified that his leg had been broken. Pain shot through his body and his eyes teared. He was totally unable to react to the meteor combination.
Before the hybrid could even register how many times he’d been hit he saw a flash of blue light that engulfed him and pretty much decided the victor of the battle. As Goku laid still on the ground he could feel Joseph’s power level rising even higher.
“Fuck, he’s not done yet? How am I supposed to fight like this?” Goku thought while he coughed and levitated. “At least I’ve got my arms still. Should I show him the real way to use Kamehameha? Soon.”
Goku sped off right towards Joseph again while firing off two sets of energy waves and eye beams at the boy as he approached. His aim was focused not on the boy’s center of mass but rather his sides and head to make sure Goku could line up his next attacks nicely. Once he got close enough Goku would charge both his fists with ki and try punching Joseph twice in the stomach.
"we about done yet? How many more of my bones do you want to break?"

Goku seemed just about spent at this point of the battle. In all honesty, he didn’t go in expecting to overwhelm the older Saiyan to this degree, especially given the heightened state he was currently using. A haphazard attempt to block the boy’s ki enhanced strike resulted in his opponent’s leg breaking with a gruelingly audible and the boy winching from the sound as well as the phantom pain that rushed down his leg.
Again, Goku quickly attempted reprisal, firing energy as he closed the distance, similar to what Joseph did before. Joseph stretched his arm out, his palm open, a hollow oval of azure energy framed his figure to guard him against the incoming attack. The first set of blasts hit the warding frame of spirit power at its transparent center and disappeared as they were absorbed into the boy’s body restoring his pool by a minute amount.
Before Goku fired the second set of blasts, Joseph dropped his oval shield of ki. Holding it for too long would have consumed more than he needed, and the strain of enduring too many attacks could have caused it to break. Joseph then crossed his arms around his torso and projected his ki in the shape of a blue bubble against the last set. He almost didn’t feel the second blast from his hand when it struck the barrier, though with it still having wanned, he felt the heat and force of the second eye beam beating against his dome before it shattered.
Joseph uncrossed his arms afterward and rose his hands up, bracing himself for Goku’s attack. He reacted to the first strike by swaying his hand into a semi-circle, meeting the punch at the wrist knocking it to the side with the palm of his hand. He then dealt with the second punch by waving his other hand down to parry, coating his hand in a transparent coat of ki to protect his hand from energy powering Goku’s fist, patting down on the striking hand to force an opening for Joseph to draw his other hand downward and launching it up into an arc to send a heavy uppercut into the Goku’s jaw. He followed the counter strike by placing his weight on his lead leg and lurched forward to crash his shoulder into Goku’s body to drive the Saiyan. “We about done yet? How many more of my bones do you want to break?” Goku asked.
“That’s up to you,” Joseph said. “I just keep going until the other guy says they don’t want to fight anymore or one of us goes unconscious. I wasn’t trying to break any bones, but I guess as many as I’d need to win.”

Goku took Joseph’s attacks head on knowing that it mattered not because he was about to end the battle one way or the other. He felt somewhat satisfied from putting Joseph on the defensive and liked the boy’s answer that they would keep going until he won.
Goku threw out two half hearted punches aimed at Joseph’s head and then twirled once, trying to smack the boy’s cheek with his tail, and then he jumped back to create some distance.
“I saw you use a Kamehameha before. This is the real deal, pay attention boy!” Goku shouted as the energy between his hands started to surge a beautiful blue. Goku concentrated so much energy into the attack that he felt like he was in danger of obliterating the planet if he missed. It was all well though, since at worse at this angle the beam would just skip across the surface of the planet and soar off into space.
“KAMEHAMEHA!” he shouted as he thrust his palms forwards and a massive beam of blue shot forth right at Joseph. Goku’s intention wasn’t to kill but it wasn’t like he had any say in how the kid would respond to the attack. As the beam travelled it tore through the side of the mountain, effectively punching through the terrain mercilessly.
If the debris cleared and Joseph was still able to fight Goku would say, “heh, you got the best of me boy, as much as I hate to admit it. I give up.”
Barring any external interference Goku’s bitches would come over in a ship and take him away to a hotel where they could “recuperate” in harmony.

Joseph darted his head to the side to get out the path of the first punch before shooting a jab at Goku's face. He then shot his rear right hand at Goku to intercept his punch and the man's strike with a punch that went straight through his center. The Demi-Earthling then rose his leg and snapped it forward in a push kick at his torso while Goku was in the middle of twisting to strike him with his tail. Often a linear attack would beat a round one to the mark. Thrown off its mark and be by the counter-pressure of the child's attack, it barely brushed against Joseph's cheek.
"I saw you use a Kamehameha before. This is the real deal. Pay attention, boy!” Goku shouted as he began gathering energy for his own Kamehameha. Joseph rose his power in response, sending as a tremor through the ground as his power ascended further, his small frame became slightly bulkier with a hardened tone. I considered this a more situational form, but the amount of time he’s taking to gather energy should make for the lost speed. He could have sped towards the Saiyan and shut down his Kamehameha with a few quick strikes to his pressure points, but that could only work once on an opponent before it could be done to them again in time since the body would adapt to it. Plus, the boy wanted to contest his own ability to project energy against another of Master Roshi.
Joseph cupped his hands, azure energy building between his palms and emitting beams between his fingers as his power rose exponentially as he prepared his attack. “-Kaaaaaaaa-Meeeeeeeee-Haaaaaaaa-Meeeeeeeeeeeee.” The moment Goku threw his hands forward and released the beam, Joseph mirrored the same motion. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. The beams collided, sending a hurricane throughout rocky lands and shaking the ground underneath their field.

Goku was not expecting a Kamehameha existed that was more powerful than his own. He felt the beams collide and start struggling back and forth a little. “I’ve got this, I’ve got this!” he shouted in his mind as he dug his feet into the ground but after the brief pause at collision the beams started progressing towards him very quickly. “If I get hit by that I’m probably dead,” he thought as he dug into his reserves of ki hoping to gain back an advantage but he was only able to slow the beam at best. The enemy’s beam pressed ever vigilantly onwards and since they weren’t that far away from each other he had to act fast.
Goku let go of his own beam with one hand which he placed on his forehead and just before he got engulfed by yet another beam he vanished.
The classic teleport sound would echo throughout the mountain range as Goku appeared atop a relatively undamaged part of the mountain, nearest to the vessel that contained his harem which he desperately needed to get healed up yet again.
“You win kid, I give up!” he shouted, “now let me out of this thing!”
