Piccolo slowly walked forward, frowning."This is bad. There are only four Saiyans with pure hearts!"
"Goten, Trunks, Gohan… and Goku!"
Master Roshi shook his head. "No, there are five! Vegeta's heart is completely righteous now too!"
Piccolo snorted. "That's debatable."
Goku stepped in quickly to ease the tension. "Alright, enough! Vegeta, let's give it a shot!"
The group joined hands, each resting their free hand on Goku's back.
Vegeta grumbled under his breath. "Damn it, why does Kakarot always get to be the main guy?"
Goku glanced back at him with a grin. "Don't say that, Vegeta. If this works, you can go next time!"
The moment their power connected, a terrifying surge of energy erupted. Four of them instantly transformed into Super Saiyans, golden light flooding across the entire ship.
With their combined power flowing into him, golden ripples of energy burst from Goku's body, spreading outward at incredible speed. The Earth itself trembled.
Golden flames roared around him as his body began to rise into the air.
Vegeta narrowed his eyes. "Kakarot, do you feel anything yet?"
Goku shook his head slightly. "I've never been a god before, so… not really sure."
Gohan spoke up. "But the aura—it's stronger than anything I've ever felt."
"Yeah," Goku nodded, "it's definitely powerful."
Still unsatisfied, Vegeta growled, "Next time, it's my turn!"
The golden storm continued to rage outward, but Whis spoke calmly, observing."Not quite. You're not transferring ki—you're transferring your hearts."
He tapped his staff against the ground lightly. "Think about it. Five righteous-hearted Saiyans giving their power to another… doesn't that mean you need six altogether?"
The realization hit them at once. "Damn! We're one short!"
They cut off the flow, dropping back to normal.
Beerus immediately stood up. "So there are only five of you Saiyans? Looks like your luck's run out."
He rose into the air, purple energy flickering in his palm.
Suddenly Videl rushed forward. "Wait—what about… the Saiyan inside me?"
She blushed furiously, pressing a hand to her belly.
Gohan's eyes went wide. "Videl… are you saying…?"
She nodded.
"You're… you're pregnant?!"
Videl nodded again, and Gohan leapt with joy. "This is amazing!"
The group quickly joined hands again, focusing their hearts on Goku.
"Heart connection!"
But nothing happened.
Gohan steadied himself. "Everyone, concentrate! Really pour your hearts in!"
They closed their eyes, gathering every ounce of spirit into Goku.
"Please… everyone!" Goku urged.
"Come on, Videl!"
Beerus watched silently—until suddenly, a blinding golden light radiated from Videl's belly. She gasped as warmth spread inside her.
The others instantly flared back into Super Saiyans, golden energy threads linking them all together. Their combined force surged into Goku, blasting him into a golden blaze that shot into the sky.
Beerus's eyes widened. "That's it. Divine power!"
Above, countless golden clouds began drifting toward Goku, spiraling together until the whole ocean reflected their glow. Swirling golden spirals appeared on the waves themselves as Gohan and the others lifted into the air behind Goku, still channeling their hearts.
Goku felt a sharp pain throughout his body, his golden aura growing brighter—then suddenly, the light around them shifted from gold to deep blue.
Streams of blue energy coursed into him, spreading outward across the horizon.
Beerus leaned in, intrigued. "Well, this is new."
Whis chuckled. "Yes, Lord Beerus. It feels… different from simple aura."
In an instant, all of the blue light from the others funneled directly into Goku's body. Silence fell.
Then a massive blue beam exploded upward, engulfing the entire sea. It vanished just as quickly, replaced by a golden downpour of clouds cascading around them like a waterfall.
The sky roared with thunder. Storms raged. Seasons seemed to shift in seconds.
One by one, the others' auras flowed entirely into Goku. A radiant red glow swallowed him whole, lifting him higher into the sky.
Beerus's lips curled into an eager grin. "Finally… Super Saiyan God?"
The red aura thickened, wrapping around Goku's frame until his silhouette matched the figure that had haunted Beerus's dreams. Slowly, the light receded, and Goku touched down before them.
His hair burned a fiery crimson. His entire presence was calm. Silent.
The Super Saiyan God, Son Goku—had arrived.
...
Dragon Ball – Real World
On Namek, Goku stared in disbelief at his own reflection. "So this… this is the power of a Super Saiyan God!"
Piccolo was just as stunned. "Goku… is that really you?"
Krillin broke into a wide grin. "Heh. Figures. Goku just keeps getting stronger and stronger."
Gohan nodded proudly. "Dad really is the strongest."
Frieza, watching from afar, ground his teeth until his jaw ached. "Damn Saiyan scum!"
Back on Earth, Master Roshi was frozen in shock. "Goku… he's become a god?"
Kami's wrinkled face lit up with a smile. "I knew it. He's truly reached divinity."
Mr. Popo was bouncing with excitement. "Beyond Super Saiyan… a god!"
Across the multiverse—in the worlds of Naruto, One Piece, Inuyasha—champions everywhere were left speechless.
...
On the screen
Piccolo turned to Dende. "So? How's it looking this time?"
The Earth's guardian gave a firm nod.
Beerus and Whis descended gracefully. Beerus clapped his hands once."Seems my patience finally paid off."
Goku faced him, smiling. "Sorry for the wait, Lord Beerus. But I'm ready now!"
Beerus's grin widened. "Eager to test it out, aren't you? Truth is—I am too."
"Then let's begin."
The two shot skyward.
Gohan's eyes followed them. "Dad… did he really transform? I can't sense his ki at all."
Whis explained, "A god's energy can't be felt by mortals. He truly has become a Super Saiyan God. Whether he matches Lord Beerus or the Supreme Kais, I can't say—but he stands among them now."
High above, Goku and Beerus faced each other.
"Show me," Beerus said, "the power of a Super Saiyan God."
Goku dropped into a stance and blurred forward, vanishing past Beerus with a sharp whoosh. He stopped short, staring at his hands in shock.
"I… I can't even believe my own body right now!"
Beerus chuckled. "Surprised?"
Goku laughed breathlessly. "That's an understatement, Lord Beerus. This is beyond anything I imagined."
He clenched his fists, eyes gleaming. "Alright then… let's test it out. Kamehameha!"
A brilliant azure sphere surged between his palms, golden lightning splitting the sky in response to the overwhelming power.
"Here it comes!!"
The blazing white-blue beam roared forward, crashing straight toward Beerus.
"..."
