Dragonball Z Growing Up

Small Trunks

The section of small Trunks Growing Up.

Since Trunks's father, Vegeta, got to live, Trunks grew up normally and got extra hard training, which made him a much stronger fighter than Goten.

Being a little brat that he is, Trunks is always looking for mischief. He constantly wants adventure and tries to sneak in places he isn't supposed to. Although he has all these traits, he does have incredible power, which makes him one of the strongest fighters in the universe. He got to fight against Buu.


Baby Period
Book Twenty Eight to Book Thirty Five

During Cell's threat, Bulma kept dragging around baby Trunks. She almost got killed with him once, but was rescued by the future Trunks. He became a super Saiya-jin at an early age as well.


Small Boy Period
Book Thirty Six to Book Forty Two

We see Trunks show his true power in this period, which he shows off an amazing display of both power and speed. His father Vegeta trained him constantly like this, to get back at Goku's son, Goten. Even against Majin Buu, Trunks showed no fear.


Super Saiya-jin
From Book Thirty Six On

At an early age of eight, Trunks learned how to go super Saiya-jin. Most of it was due to the training of Vegeta, which he spent a lot of time in a gravity room, where there was over 400 times the normal gravity.


Gotenks
From Book Forty On

From the threat of Majin Buu, Goten and Trunks both trained to fuse together and become the all powerful, Gotenks. They got to train even more with this fusion, in the Room of Spirit and Time. When Buu came to see him, he showed that he would be absolutely, no push over.


10 Year Growth
Book Forty Two

After the threat of Majin Buu was over, Trunks continued to train harder then ever. Just like the Trunks we saw in the Cell saga, this Trunks looks just like him, but just as powerful. Vegeta makes him train every day, just so he can get stronger than Goten.
