Saiyans are built on emotions, and after seeing Picolo get destroyed by Cell, Gohan snapped and unlocked his new form, which surpassed everyone’s expectations.

It has been confirmed to be the most potent form in the series. However, many fans refuse to believe that after spending little to no time training, he surpassed Goku and Vegeta, who have been training with gods and working hard for years.

Gohan was destined to surpass Goku and Vegeta inDragon Balldue to his unbelievable potential

The Saiyans are a very talented race of individuals capable of getting stronger and stronger. Their powers are built on their emotions, and some have unprecedented potential.

One of the characters is Gohan, who seems to be a prodigy; even when he was a kid, he was a monster-strong, which was evident when he beat up Cell, who was mopping the floor with Z fighters.

Even Goku was not a match for it, and if it were not for Gohan, the Z fighters would have been annihilated. However, unlike his father, he did not want to get stronger.

Despite everyone telling him to train occasionally, he preferred to spend time studying or enjoying time with his family.

However, his recent form has reminded everyone why he was destined to surpass his father, as with little to no training, he unlocked a new form. Some fans even wonder what would have happened if Gohan had the same desire to get stronger as his father.
