The power cosmic wasn't too difficult for someone like Gohan to dodge, especially given his trained reflexes. However, it looked like Stardust wasn't a pushover either, if she could take one of his signature attacks like that and still keep kicking. He hadn't been expecting to be able to take her down that easily, mostly just curious as to how much power one of Galactus' heralds could handle.

However, before he could put more of his energy into a stronger attack, Alexander's orders came in.

They had a new plan. Alright, Gohan could work with that. He wasn't sure just what it was they had planned, but he wasn't about to question his teammates when the stakes were this high. Instead, Gohan moved a bit higher in the air, holding his hands out, and peppering Stardust with a constant barrage of energy blasts. They weren't high energy, so they wouldn't exhaust Gohan too much. But they were still fast and consistent, very clearly meant to pressure her and not do any actual damage.

He needed to maintain his energy, after all.
