Seven people stood in two rows behind Son Goku.
Gohan and Vegeta pressed their right hands against his back.
Vegeta's left hand held Trunks' hand.
Trunks' other hand pulled Son Goten's hand.
Meanwhile, Goten was held in Chi-Chi's arms.
On the other side, Videl stood behind Gohan, holding Son Wu.
Gohan had one hand on Son Goku's back and the other holding Son Wu's hand.
"It's a Heart of Justice, not Qi..." Gohan prompted.
But what exactly a Heart of Justice was, and how it should be transferred to Son Goku, was another question.
After all, something like a Heart of Justice was inherently ethereal, unlike Qi, which could be controlled at will.
It was simply hard to define its existence.
After several minutes of effort, a dazzling light first erupted from Son Goten's body.
The light enveloped his entire body like a large golden bubble.
Next, the light spread to Trunks, then from Trunks to Vegeta, and finally enveloped Son Goku.
Meanwhile, the same scene was unfolding with Gohan and Son Wu, creating a chain reaction.
Golden bubbles completely connected them, erupting with a dazzling radiance.
The originally dark and cloudy sky saw all those black clouds turn into a brilliant golden color.
These kinds of golden clouds usually appeared near the Divine Realm and Snake Way.
This was the first time such auspicious clouds had appeared in the Mortal World.
Then, centered on the Lookout, the golden clouds in the sky began to move, forming a massive golden vortex.
At the center of the vortex,
Sunlight, spring rain, hail, and snowflakes—the four seasons cycled rapidly.
After the flying snow passed,
Son Goku's body suddenly became transparent, and then he rose into the air.
"Oh? Godly Ki..."
Beerus wore a meaningful expression. "Is it finally here? The Super Saiyan God."
Everyone looked in astonishment at the transparent Son Goku in the sky.
At this moment, Son Goku's entire body had become transparent, as if he had turned into a mass of light, which gradually shifted into a faint red.
Soon, he descended from the air and stood on the Lookout's plaza.
There was silence; no one spoke, everyone just stared at him.
Meanwhile, Shenron, acting as the background, felt a bit awkward.
After all, the sky that was originally pitch black had now turned completely golden.
It was exposed to the golden sunlight, which made it feel very insecure.
Regarding the investment of Life Origin last time, this Shenron now declares the investment a failure.
Investment ≠ Majesty
The light on Son Goku's body gradually dissipated.
Everyone finally saw clearly what he looked like now.
The current Son Goku had a much slimmer and leaner build than before, and his black crab-style hair had turned a fiery red.
Even his eyebrows and pupils were no exception, turning blood-red.
One could no longer feel that surging aura from him.
It was a very wonderful feeling.
He was clearly standing right in front of you, yet he seemed to be somewhere very far away.
You couldn't feel his presence at all, nor could you sense his life energy.
Is this the Super Saiyan God Realm?
Or rather, is this Godly Ki?
However, Gohan could still sense life fluctuations from the Supreme Kai.
But he couldn't sense them from Son Goku... ahem, saying it like that seemed a bit impolite to the Supreme Kai.
"Goku looks like this, he doesn't seem as strong as before," Krillin voiced his confusion.
Gohan said, "Maybe this form is more suitable for combat."
"Dad, how do you feel now?" Gohan asked.
Son Goku looked at his body and hopped twice. "Ah, my body feels very light."
Whis smiled and said to Beerus, "Lord Beerus, it seems it was a success."
Beerus grinned. "Hehe, I'm getting a little excited."
He stepped forward as he spoke.
"Son Goku, come, let me see the power of the Super Saiyan God. I hope you don't disappoint me."
"Alright, Lord Beerus." Son Goku was also full of confidence in his current self.
Under everyone's gaze, Beerus and Son Goku flew high into the air and stood about ten meters apart.
Both stared intently at each other without even blinking.
After a few seconds, Son Goku decided to take the initiative and strike first.
*Bang!*
Son Goku clenched his fists, and a golden-red aura ignited around his body.
Then, with a burst of Qi under his feet, he charged at Beerus, his right fist carrying violent power aimed straight at Beerus's face.
But Beerus simply extended one index finger and stopped Son Goku's terrifying fist.
*Boom!*
The moment the fist and finger made contact, a terrifying air blast occurred.
Smoke instantly filled the surroundings.
The violent airwaves swept out, shredding the golden clouds in the sky.
"How is it? Do you have any insights after becoming a Super Saiyan God?" Beerus asked after nonchalantly blocking Son Goku's move.
Son Goku said, "I'm very surprised!"
"Oh? Surprised by what?" Beerus asked.
"Surprised that my power could actually reach this level, and also surprised that Lord Beerus could block my attack with just one finger."
"Hahaha, is that so?" Beerus burst out laughing.
"Come, Lord Beerus, let me see what the strength of a God of Destruction is like."
"Hmph, fine."
Beerus grinned and instantly kicked out his right leg toward Son Goku.
Son Goku raised his arm to block and began to counterattack.
Son Goku landed a punch on Beerus's chest, and Beerus punched Son Goku's head aside.
Their four legs also constantly clashed.
The first wave of the battle was fist-to-flesh melee combat.
Two lights flashed in the sky, constantly intersecting and colliding.
Golden-red energy and purple energy constantly collided, whipping up storms.
Strong winds battered the Lookout, and everyone had to put their hands to their foreheads to resist the gusts hitting their faces.
Trunks exclaimed, "It looks like Uncle Goku is on par with Lord Beerus."
Beside him, Whis smiled without saying a word.
Vegeta snorted coldly, "Idiot, they're just doing warm-up exercises right now; they haven't shown their true strength at all."
"..."
Piccolo said, "That may be true, but the current Goku is far stronger than before. Just now, Goku was taken out in a second by Lord Beerus's finger, but now he's trading blows back and forth."
In the sky.
Beerus and Son Goku engaged in a new collision.
*Boom!*
After the clash, the two were once again blown back dozens of meters.
Son Goku said with some regret, "It's a pity. This power isn't something I obtained through hard cultivation; it was temporarily gained with everyone's help. If only it were like Gohan's..."
"Oh? Is Son Gohan really that strong? Then why did you need to become a Super Saiyan God?" Beerus asked.
Son Goku burst his Qi again, the golden-red waves of energy surging around him. "Because I want to have a real fight with Lord Beerus, instead of being defeated by Lord Beerus with a single finger."
"Hahaha, you have spirit." Beerus laughed loudly, then his expression suddenly turned cold, and his body vanished instantly.
The next moment he appeared, he had already kicked Son Goku in the lower abdomen.
Son Goku spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward.
Next, Beerus waved his hand, and two purple Energy Balls shot out, chasing after Son Goku.
Son Goku, sent tumbling by the kick, quickly stabilized his body and then repeatedly dodged the two purple Energy Balls that were relentlessly pursuing him.
Unexpectedly, Beerus suddenly appeared above him and smashed a fist into him.
Hit by the heavy blow, Son Goku rapidly plummeted toward the ground.
