At the manor.
After personally witnessing Talot transform into Super Saiyan 4, everyone present revealed shocked expressions.
Had they not seen it with their own eyes, they would never have dared believe that a Super Saiyan 4 actually existed in the world.
“Super Saiyan 4… Super Saiyan 4 actually exists?” Looking at the light screen Whis had created before them, Krillin said in disbelief.
Within the overwhelming aura of Super Saiyan 4: Limit Breaker was a portion of powerful divine essence, but even so, as a mortal, he could still genuinely and clearly feel the tremendous and terrifying power of Super Saiyan 4.
“This overwhelming aura… Super Saiyan 4’s power is actually this strong, and it even has the enhancement of God Ki…” Piccolo looked dumbfounded, shaken by Super Saiyan 4’s terrifying aura.
Just how terrifying of a race were the Saiyans? Aside from Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan Blue, they could actually evolve into Super Saiyan 4, and Super Saiyan 4 might even be stronger than Super Saiyan Blue!
At the very least, judging by Talot’s current performance as Super Saiyan 4: Limit Breaker, he could contend with God of Destruction Beerus. That kind of achievement was simply not something Super Saiyan God or Super Saiyan Blue could compare to.
And now that Super Saiyan 4 had appeared, could there perhaps even be a higher Super Saiyan 5?
“Super Saiyan 4… Damn it, we actually knew nothing about it…” After Goku recovered with Whis’s help, he watched the battle within the light screen with a dumbfounded expression.
The appearance of Super Saiyan 4 completely overturned everything he had ever understood about Saiyans.
If they had never come into contact with God Ki, then perhaps in the future, they would have evolved into Super Saiyan 4 instead.
“Super Saiyan 4… How could this be… Could it be that the path I’ve been walking all this time was wrong…” The appearance of Super Saiyan 4 also dealt an enormous shock to Vegeta’s mind.
No matter how he looked at it, this form seemed to be the correct direction of Saiyan evolution.
Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan Blue, on the other hand, were more like mutations produced with the help of external power.
He and Kakarot… seemed to have taken the wrong path!
“Unbelievable. There’s actually another transformation above Super Saiyan 3. Just the invisible aura spreading outward is enough to make my body tremble… It’s… too strong!” Goku clenched his teeth, once again gaining a new understanding of just how weak he was.
The power he was so proud of was worthless before truly powerful beings.
Within these vast and boundless countless timelines, he was far too insignificant.
There were powerful beings stronger than him everywhere.
【Damn it!! If I had known about the existence of the Super Saiyan 4 transformation earlier, I wouldn’t have had to… I wouldn’t have had to do that…!!】Vegeta recalled the scene from years ago when he had cast aside his dignity for the sake of power.
He had not hesitated to kneel before Whis and seek a method of training God Ki in order to become stronger.
In the end, he obtained Whis’s permission and went to the God of Destruction’s Planet to train.
But God Ki was ultimately an external power. Super Saiyan 4 was the true power inherent to the Saiyan race.
He had gained a meager amount of power, yet lost the proud self he once was.
As the prince of the Saiyan race, bloodline was far more important in his eyes.
Super Saiyan 4 held an extraordinary meaning to him. If he had known about the existence of Super Saiyan 4 earlier, there would have been no need for him to cast aside his dignity to learn God Ki.
For a moment, the atmosphere began to grow heavy.
Whis, who had been silently standing to the side like an invisible presence, quietly observed the changes in everyone.
To be frank, the appearance of Super Saiyan 4 had shocked even him.
Whether in terms of power or appearance, Super Saiyan 4 was an ideal choice for a God of Destruction candidate.
At this moment, Whis seemed to understand why Talot carried a mark left behind by another version of himself from a different timeline.
It was probably because of Super Saiyan 4 that the Whis from another timeline had chosen him.
“Whether it is Super Saiyan 4 or Super Saiyan God, although the paths are different, each form has its own special qualities. No one knows which evolutionary path produces the stronger transformation. Goku, Vegeta, the reason you are inferior to this Saiyan from another timeline is because your own training is still far from sufficient. If your base selves were powerful enough, then Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan Blue would not necessarily be inferior to this Super Saiyan 4,” Whis calmly analyzed for everyone.
That said, Whis still leaned more toward Super Saiyan God.
After all, in terms of sheer strength, the power of gods was still superior to mortal power.
Hearing this, the restlessness in Goku and Vegeta’s hearts finally calmed somewhat.
Whis was indeed right. Transformations had never truly been divided into strong and weak. What mattered was only the strength of the user.
As long as they were strong enough, they would not even need to transform to deal with any enemy!
……
Outside the Twelve Universes.
This was Zeno’s Palace, a realm transcending all dimensions and divine domains.
A supreme Angel dressed in blue divine robes, with a special divine halo floating behind his back, was watching the battle taking place in Universe 7 through the sacred light screen before him.
Without a doubt, he was none other than the supreme Angel—the Grand Priest!
At this moment, the image on the screen was precisely the scene of Talot battling God of Destruction Beerus.
Ever since Black had appeared and caused the Time and Space distortion, he had been observing everything happening in Universe 7.
And now, Talot had descended and begun a confrontation with God of Destruction Beerus.
“A Saiyan from another timeline, not only possessing tremendous strength, but also carrying a mark left by Whis. This world is beginning to develop in an interesting direction as well.” The Grand Priest murmured to himself, becoming increasingly curious about Talot’s existence.
With his discerning eyes, he could tell that Talot was special.
As the supreme Angel, as long as the world itself did not reject Talot, he would not drive him away.
He was very curious about what kinds of changes Talot would bring to this timeline after arriving here.
After all, there were countless timelines, and every timeline would undergo more or less some strange changes, causing the fate of the world to head toward the unknown.
Only in a very small number of worlds could a truly powerful existence be nurtured, and Talot was one of them.
With his thoughts drifting, the Grand Priest casually waved his hand and dispersed the light screen.
His profound divine sense, along with his consciousness, reached Universe 7 and established contact with his son, who was currently on Earth in Universe 7.
Talot, this Saiyan, was far from ordinary. He intended to let him stay.
It was simply that he could not personally intervene. Only Whis could.
