"I want to be sure you can handle anything that comes up once I'm gone." Raigen said, seeing Cado's attack.<br/><br/>Twisting to avoid his kick, he came around with a leg sweep counter. Then, spinning to increase his momentum, he grabbed and threw him toward Goku, who flip-kicked him back into a heel drop. Having done that, he and Goku engaged in a flurry of blows. He felt a wave of nostalgia hit him as they clashed. He'd learned so much from him growing up that it felt like he was fighting to prove he was ready to stand on his own.<br/><br/>They both landed a hard punch to each others face, Goku with his right, he with his left. The force of the collision blew them away from each other as a shock wave boomed outward from the epicenter of the clash. They both recovered almost immediately, their power levels mirroring each other perfectly. They looked at each other, landing as they shared a smile that revealed how much they were enjoying their little spar. Though to anyone else, it looked like they were legitimately trying to kill each other.<br/><br/>"Heh heh, You're pretty good," Goku said with a hearty laugh, "I'm really impressed."<br/><br/>"What can I say," Raigen replied rolling his shoulders as his tail swished back and forth with barely restrained pleasure, "I learned most of what I know from a good teacher and an even better friend."<br/><br/>He didn't say that the friend that he was referring to was actually Goku himself from another timeline.
