[as Goku follows, he can feel his power level dropping drastically. but before he could even so much as question what was going on despite the look of bewilderment on his face, the Saiyan was answered by Saori's stance across the way. so this was how it felt... his power level must have been...well, he didn't care for the scouters since they never really could measure true strength. but for the sake of the exercise? he and Saori were likely sitting at 10 or so. what was stranger was that he couldn't even sense anything anymore. it was like everything was shut out entirely. the thought was...intriguing, but it admittedly felt weird. but seeing the goddess across the way from him, ready to go, he had to admit that it was easier to focus on his martial arts skills when nothing else was distracting him]

Hyah!!
