Proof? Base Goku vs SS2 Caulifla. Even though it was stated that Goku was finessing Caulifla due to Superior battle technique and experience, it still doesn't change the fact that Goku was not only able to harm and match Caulifla as a SS2 in his base form (as evidenced by their fists clashing and them actually fighting for an extended period of time, looking on par with each other), but he was also able to use the Zanzoken (Afterimage Technique)-- a technique based on pure SPEED-- and booted Caulifla away. Again, the Zanzoken is a technique based on pure speed where the user becomes so fast that they create images of themselves all around the enemy. The technique is similar to Goku's "fist of eight arms" attack he stole from Chappa and used on Tien, where he moved his arms so fast that it looked like he grew eight arms. Tien displayed a similar attack against Roshi in their fight, and Roshi was able to keep up with his arms, catch them, and kick him away. Tien was able to react to Goku's afterimages and speed on multiple occasions, proving that this technique is speed based. One would argue that it was a lack of experience that stopped Caulifla from seeing through Goku's Zanzoken. I dispute that by pointing to the fact that Goku should be moving in slow motion in comparison to Caulifla, since she's 80-100x stronger than Goku, bare minimum, and shouldn't even see Goku as a Blur, let alone after images. What does everyone else think? This exists to shut up down players basically.
