The barrage of comments across the Wanjie Multiverse became a singular, thunderous chant.
Duanmu Yan: "Vegeta is a true man!"
Daigo: "Vegeta is a true man!"
Uzumaki Naruto: "Vegeta is a true man!"
Kurosaki Ichigo: "Vegeta is a true man!"
Every viewer who had ever fought to protect a loved one felt a deep kinship with the Saiyan Prince. The narrator's words rang true: to unleash power beyond one's limits for a woman, and to draw a sword against a nightmare that once broke your spiritâthat is the definition of a warrior. Vegeta had sacrificed his pride to dance for Beerus to save the world; he was a hero. Now, he drew his sword for love; he was a legend. The hate many once felt for the arrogant invader had fully evaporated, replaced by die-hard admiration.
In the world of One Piece, Sengoku nodded solemnly. "Anger truly is the catalyst for Saiyan evolution. Goku reached Super Saiyan 1 through fury, Gohan reached Super Saiyan 2 through rage, and now Vegeta has pushed the boundaries of Super Saiyan 2 into a berserk state that outshines even the third stage."
Garp laughed heartily. "Vegeta probably spent years brooding over being unable to catch up to Goku. Who would have thought all he needed was for someone to smack his wife?"
Back in the real-time spaceship, the current Vegeta felt a surge of triumph. He didn't care about the logistics; he had surpassed Kakarot. Even if it was for a fleeting moment, the gap had been closed. His mood was complex as he looked at Bulma on the screen. To think he would become so infatuated with an Earth woman that he'd overcome his trauma for her... it made him curious. He found himself looking forward to reaching Earth, wanting to see this formidable woman with his own eyes.
The video then showcased the clash. The empowered Vegeta launched a relentless assault. At first, Beerus was indifferent, but when he threw a punch only for Vegeta to tank it and counter with a heavy blow to the face, the God's eyes widened. Vegeta didn't let up, unleashing a flurry of strikes that prevented even a God of Destruction from finding an opening, culminating in a massive Final Flash that engulfed the scene in golden light.
For those few minutes, Vegeta reigned supreme.
However, as the dust settled, Beerus stood completely unscathed. He scratched his head, looking slightly disappointed. "It seems this isn't the Super Saiyan God after all." He had hoped the sudden power spike was the prophecy coming true, but it was just mortal adrenaline.
Vegeta's Ki faded as his rage cooled, and he collapsed, exhausted. With no one left to stop him, Beerus called for Whis to begin the destruction of Earth. But Whis was preoccupied, delicately enjoying a tray of sushi. He asked for a few more portions to be packed, ignoring Beerus's repeated calls until the very last second.
Just as the violet energy of destruction gathered in Beerus's hand, a voice cut through the despair: "Wait!"
High above the party, Son Goku had finally arrived. Bulma, Krillin, and the others cheeredâto them, Goku's arrival was the universal signal that everything would be okay.
"Whis likely sensed Goku hiding in the shadows," the narrator noted. "He used the sushi as a stalling tactic, buying just enough time for the hero to arrive. One could say the Angel contributed as much to Earth's survival as the warriors."
In the void of space, Beerus glanced at Whis. "Is that so?"
Whis gave a cryptic smile. "Lord Beerus, I couldn't possibly say what that version of me was thinking." Beerus let it go; he couldn't touch Whis anyway, and besides, he was too excited. If Goku was here, the Super Saiyan God had to be close.
In the video, Goku admitted he didn't know how to become the God, but he had a plan: the Dragon Balls. When Shenron was summoned, the Great Dragon was his usual majestic, aloof selfâuntil he spotted Beerus. In an instant, the "Eternal Dragon" turned into a stuttering, humble servant, bowing before the Destroyer.
Through the terrified Shenron, the secret was finally revealed. The Super Saiyan God was a legend of the Saiyan race, born when five kind-hearted Saiyans poured their heart-power into a sixth.
