• Zamasu explained that he had wished for his body to become identical to Lu Li’s after Super Shenron could not find Lu Li in his timeline.

• Lu Li carved out Zamasu's organs while evading his attacks, and Zamasu's fusion began to destabilize as its time limit approached.

As Goku and Vegeta argued over whether Zamasu deserved punishment, Lu Li restrained the original and resolved to make him atone before eventually killing him.

• Lu Li sensed Shin’s faint ki on a remote planet, found him badly injured, and used Rebirth of Samsara to revive Kibito.

• Broly transformed into a Super Saiyan and attacked Lu Li, whose Saiyan power began stirring in response.

Lu Li fought Broly to study the extraordinary Saiyan potential in their shared Bloodline, repeatedly reviving him as Broly grew stronger and transformed into Super Saiyan FULLPOWER.

Lu Li gained Saiyan Bloodline’s near-death power-up after Goku, Vegeta, and Broly pushed him to the brink, and he discovered his Limiter Release talent might let him repeat the process. After sensing trouble connected to the Grand Priest and Zeno, Lu Li warned Goku, sent Vegeta to fetch Buu, and contacted Aizen.

• Goku and Vegeta urged Broly to learn power control and offered to train him, while Lu Li revealed he could potentially transform into a Super Saiyan.
• Lu Li asked Goku, Vegeta, and Broly to attack him until he reached a near-death state, and Vegeta’s Destruction Energy finally destroyed most of his body before it regenerated.
