Simply state the Will bonus doesn't apply to the roll to keep the battle aura up after a stun. We're largely eyeballing costs here anyway, so there's some wiggle room in how things apply (plus, that would be a fairly small Limitation on Will anyway). I'd probably take it a step further - the Will bonus also doesn't apply to rolls to renew the Battle Aura (if you opt to do so while it's still partially up). Goku would probably have a Perk or similar to ignore this restriction, however - while I've only watched Dragonball and some of Dragonball Z, Goku seems to be a habitual rule-breaker when it comes to stuff like this. "Kaiouken not quite cutting it? That's alright, I'll just stack 10 instances of it on top of each other."
