Ultimate Team War: GeorgeCarlinWorshipper Style

I would also like to extend thanks to my opponent for allowing such a magnificent debate. ============== First, in response to his position concerning sources, I was using that source in reference to the Daizenshuu. This is essentially a Dragon Ball Z Guidebook. I can provide actual scans (original Japanese) of the page that deals which stating Super Saiyan Goku's fighting power: . http://4.bp.blogspot.com... Second, the link I have provided contradicts PRO's source PRECISELY because Goku says nothing regarding instant transmission as being a technique which propels it's wielders into a pocket dimension (which is the basis of PRO's rendering of it being purely a quick travel technique). Therefore, the wikia page's claim is baseless conjecture at best. ============================== TACTIC ONE CONT: "Leave it to Goku" ============================== My opponent starts his rebuttal by insisting that Goku is not capable of moving at the speed of light. He bases this on the fact that Goku's battles are drawn with the background visible at Goku's speed. He insist that if Goku were capable of moving at lightspeed, the background would not be visible. However, I'd say that this proves nothing but the animators own limitations on what it means to travel at lightspeed. Not to mention that the animation would look less appealing if it were to be as PRO says it is. The most logical way to look at this is that we (THE VIEWERS) are seeing the fight in a way that we can comprehend (think of it like a slow motion camera recording a lightning bolt), whereas things in real time are much different. As far as Sentry moving at several times lightspeed is concerned, the source dictates that this is in terms of interstellar travel. Upon pondering on interstellar travel, the meaning became clear. Sentry can only move so quickly without having built up enough speed. For example, the typical car may be registered as being able to move at 120 mph, but that doesn't mean it can do so instantly; the average car would have to take the time to build up speed on a straight path before it could reach it's maximum. When added by the fact that Sentry was practically even with Hulk in terms of strength/speed during their battle in the World War Hulk arc (links shall be provided in the comment section momentarily), it makes plenty of sense as to why PRO's own source list the man as being restricted to the speed of sound on earth. It's no wonder he can travel from earth to the sun within a few seconds. He has 93 milllion miles on a straight path to work with. His only hope of hitting his top speed during this battle would be to fly to the sun and then fly back to the exact point where his target (Goku) remained. However, many things can happen in a few seconds during this battle and it's already been agreed that instant transmission has no such limitation. By the time Sentry gets back, PRO's whole time stopping strategy will have resulted in failure, not to mention Goku can just use instant transmission to dodge, assuming the superman clone is faster than Goku is without his technique. As for Goku's own speed and mental limitations, if you'd refer back to the first video provided in the previous round, you shall be able to realize that Goku showed himself well capable of processing the speeds at which he was moving during instant transmission. I need not prove Goku's speed without his transmission technique, given that Goku is clearly shown capable of supplementing his speed with that technique. After all, he was using it for combat purposes against SOMEONE ELSE who was using the same technique. The slow motion scene with the red background image revolving around Goku barely escaping Cooler, only to have his leg grabbed says it all in terms of his awareness level. As stated in a prior round, instant transmission is well over 3 million times faster than light. For Goku to be able to process such a speed in his head as well as counter someone else moving at a speed indicates a great deal about his own mental processing power. Incidentally, the scene with Goku moving in slow motion proves that instant transmission does not consist of one entering a pocket dimension, but that it's rather pure speed at work. EVEN IF Sentry could start out at lightspeed movement, this is still vastly inferior to instant transmission and Goku's mental processing speed would still pose a problem (as PRO admits that Sentry would have to telepathically locate Goku before blitzing him at his fastest). Finally, Nagato and anyone else in the Naruto universe cannot move faster than light nor are they capable of comprehending anything faster than light (again, both which I've shown Goku to be more than capable of), thus Nagato's powers would be utterly useless. SUMMARY: Sentry does not have the space to build up to light speed movement (hence is restricted to far lower speeds) and Peter Petreli would be vanquished long before he could fly to the sun and back. Furthermore, Goku's neural function is capable of processing the speed of instant transmission, as we see in my first video in the previous round during his encounter with someone else who could use the technique. This clearly puts his neural functioning astronomically above Mr. Petreli's. ============================= TACTIC NUMBER TWO: BUILT IN PREP TIME: ============================= I would like to make one adjustment to this alternate strategy in dealing with Team PRO. ADJUSTMENT: I did say that Balthier was equipped with the best armor in Final Fantasy XII. I say the best armor in the Mirror Mail: . http://finalfantasy.wikia.com... The mirror mail automatically enables the spell reflect on whoever wields it. Thus, Goku could start by using instant transmission to get to another dimension (the hyperbolic time chamber probably) as soon as the battle began. Upon Mr. Petrelis using his time stop technique, it would automatically bounce off balthier and back to him, no different than the effects of the spell known as "stopga" would. Mr. Petreli shall be infinitely be trapped in time. Balthier shall then proceed to cast Esunaga, hence removing status ailments on all of his teammates (all teammates being frozen in time). Goku shall arrive back in the dimension with the combat zone and hold off Sentry in the manner I've argued. The rest of this strategy shall proceed precisely in accordance to what I've already dictated in Tactic Number Two during prior rounds.
