Inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber:

Special training continued without pause.

Son Goten and Bulla engaged in sparring practice, while Super Broly continued training in the method Mr. Popo had taught him to control his inner rage.

Meanwhile, Son Goku and Vegeta were currently sparring with Whis.

Even when they attacked together, they couldn't touch Whis at all.

At this moment, Son Goku was completely focused on Whis's every move.

Suddenly, he stopped attacking, leaving Vegeta to continue the offensive alone.

"So that's how it is. Whis really isn't thinking at all. It's completely different from Lord Beerus's method before."

"Whis, how exactly are you doing this?"

In the end, Son Goku couldn't help but ask Whis about the method to achieve Ultra Instinct.

Whis's swaying body came to a halt at that moment, and Vegeta also stopped moving.

Whis explained, "Ultra Instinct places extremely high demands on one's state of mind. Even Lord Beerus has not been able to master it."

"It's like turning your entire body into a single neuron. Without thinking, you can still perfectly evade everything. This is a realm of its own, completely different from your Saiyan transformations."

"As for the beginner stage, you must first achieve a state with no distracting thoughts."

Son Goku fell into deep thought.

Just as he had guessed, Beerus hadn't learned it yet.

With that thought, Son Goku closed his eyes, emptied his mind, and everything around him faded from his vision.

The sounds of fists being swung and people breathing slowly faded from his mind.

In the end, the only sound he could hear was his own breathing.

At the same time, after listening to Whis's explanation, Vegeta imitated Son Goku, closing his eyes and trying to find that feeling.

Whis looked at the two of them with satisfaction as they attempted it.

He had already explained the principle. Whether or not they could comprehend it depended entirely on them.

Suddenly, a faint, silvery, flowing light began to radiate from Son Goku's body.

At that moment, Whis frowned slightly, and a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

Even Beerus, who had been dozing off nearby, suddenly sat up straight.

"T... This..." Beerus opened his mouth wide. Just then, Whis appeared in front of him and covered his mouth with one hand.

"Shh~ Lord Beerus... your guess was right. Son Goku is indeed beginning to see results," Whis reminded him.

At that moment, everyone inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber turned their gaze toward Son Goku, who was comprehending the technique.

Time seemed to freeze at that instant, and Son Goku became the focus of the entire room.

Astonished, Gohan murmured, "Trunks, did you see that? That layer of light on my dad's body?"

Trunks wasn't surprised in the slightest. Son Goku showing initial results was completely within expectations.

If someone threw a Spirit Bomb at Son Goku right now, he might succeed outright.

Forcing things won't make them better. There were still three years anyway, better to let Son Goku proceed steadily and solidly.

"I saw it, Brother Gohan. Uncle Goku really is strong," Trunks replied softly.

There were many key factors behind Son Goku's ability to show initial results so quickly.

The first point was the Turtle School's training method.

The second point was that Son Goku was already a battle-hardened veteran.

The third point was...

Beerus had previously given Son Goku an incorrect demonstration. Because of that, Son Goku avoided many detours.

With the atmosphere built up to this point, Whis suddenly moved in the distance.

In an instant, he appeared in front of Son Goku. Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.

In the blink of an eye, he casually swung the staff he was holding.

Sure enough, Son Goku didn't disappoint.

Son Goku dodged the staff directly; he had achieved the rudimentary form of Ultra Instinct.

Whis smiled smugly and accelerated the speed of his staff swings. Endless afterimages began to appear around Son Goku.

As time passed, Son Goku's dodging speed grew faster and faster.

Everyone was shocked by his performance; that was an attack from Angel Whis! However, the very next second, Whis added a bit more power to his staff, and its speed increased geometrically.

Son Goku could no longer handle it as effortlessly as before. His body began to retreat backward.

Then, he suddenly opened his eyes, and the silvery light instantly disappeared.

The staff pressed forward step by step.

Bang!

The next second, Son Goku's body was sent flying.

The trajectory he was knocked along happened to be in Vegeta's direction.

At that moment, Vegeta was still trying wholeheartedly to do exactly what Whis had described.

Bang!

Son Goku and Vegeta collided with a strange crash.

Vegeta immediately became unhappy.

"Bastard! Kakarot! What are you doing?!"

"Sorry, Vegeta. Looks like I still couldn't pull it off!"

Just then, Whis put away his staff and came over to the two Saiyans. He said to Son Goku, "That's only natural. Ultra Instinct isn't easy to comprehend, so you need more practice."

Son Goku scratched his head and laughed. "Hehe, looks like I was just a clumsy imitation just now. Whis, please guide me more!"

After saying that, Son Goku started circling Whis, leaving Vegeta standing where he was.

Looking at Son Goku's retreating figure, Vegeta sighed. "Kakarot... Was it really just a clumsy imitation?"

"He's already shown initial results. To be honest, I'm very shocked," Beerus's voice came from behind Vegeta.

"But you're not bad either. In fact, you grasped divine techniques even earlier than he did." Beerus folded his arms, a look of gratification shining in his eyes as he looked at Vegeta.

Vegeta paused. To be honest, he was extremely doubtful about what Beerus had suddenly said.

"Tch. Are you mocking me for not being able to do what Kakarot does?" 

After saying that, Vegeta turned around, preparing to train by himself.

Beerus floated to stand directly in front of Vegeta and said seriously, "Hey, Vegeta, I'm not joking. Think about it yourself."

"When ordinary people are hit by my Destruction Energy, their souls scatter on the spot. But you're different. When I infused you with Destruction Energy, your body was able to absorb it. So, compared to Ultra Instinct, I think you're better suited for destruction."

Vegeta stopped in his tracks. Finally, Beerus's words caught his attention.

He had absorbed Destruction Energy before.

"You mean... you want me to learn Destruction from you?"

Beerus grinned. "You can understand it that way. I call it Self Ultra Instinct."

"For the sake of Universe 7, I'll reluctantly guide you a bit."

The corner of Vegeta's mouth lifted as he looked toward Whis and Son Goku again.

{Kakarot, hmph. I'll learn it before you do.}

Vegeta replied to Beerus, "Then let's go."
