Ultra Instinct Awakens!

Son Goku's Kamehameha is being pushed back bit by bit by the Destruction Energy Ball.

[What's going on? My God Power is clearly stronger, yet it was pushed back by his attack. Could it be because of the destruction?] Son Goku's brain raced as he analyzed the situation.

The power of destruction was far more terrifying than he had imagined. Mastering the Destroyer was not just about increasing strength; it was about undergoing a qualitative change in every aspect.

Fortunately, he had a trump card up his sleeve, otherwise he might have really lost this battle! "Kaio-ken!!" Son Goku gritted his teeth and unleashed the Kaio-ken in his Super Saiyan Blue Evolved Zenith state.

It was accompanied by a burst of deep, blood-red aura.

Son Goku's God Power and Battle Power experienced an explosive increase.

Blood energy merged with the deep blue God Power, continuously increasing the intensity of the Kamehameha.

With the addition of Kaio-ken, Son Goku's Kamehameha directly overwhelmed the Destruction Energy Ball released by Toppo.

"What?!" Feeling the terrifying pressure coming towards him, Toppo's face changed drastically, and his expression was horrified.

That can't possibly happen! Having discarded everything superfluous and embraced the power of destruction, he should be the strongest.

No! He would not allow himself to fail, no matter what, even at the cost of his life.

"Destruction!" Toppo shouted, unleashing the Full Power of his God of Destruction Power. The Destruction Rune on his chest glowed with an eerie purple light.

Under the influence of this purple light, Toppo's power continued to erupt, and his God of Destruction Power grew explosively, with its vast and boundless might sweeping across the Boundless Realm like World of Void.

As Toppo exerted his power, Son Goku's Kamehameha was once again pushed back. Feeling the pressure, Son Goku unleashed another burst of power, amplifying the Kaio-ken and once again overwhelming Toppo.

His Kamehameha continued to advance, and there were faint signs that Toppo's God of Destruction Power was about to Kamehameha.

"I have won this battle!! Toppo!!" Son Goku shouted, the energy he was unleashing continued to intensify.

Toppo's Destruction Energy Ball were suppressed and forced to retreat, and the balance of power tilted more and more towards Son Goku.

But at this critical moment...

The Dangerous Trio from Ninth Universe has made their move! They already harbored resentment towards Son Goku and had been secretly observing Son Goku battles, hoping to seize this opportunity to eliminate him in one fell swoop.

Now that such a great opportunity is right in front of them, how could they possibly let it slip by?

"Son Goku!! We've finally got our chance!"

"Hmph... this time you're not getting away!"

"Dangerous Triangle Array Beam!!"

Basil, Lavender, Bergamo, and the three-headed wolf roared simultaneously, unleashing their combined attack.

An unstoppable wave of destructive energy surged forth, tearing through space and hurtling straight toward Son Goku's back.

"What?!" Sensing the immense danger behind him, Son Goku's expression changed drastically. He turned around abruptly, and what came into view was the incredibly destructive Dangerous Triangle Array Beam.

With nowhere to avoid it, Son Goku was hit squarely by the Dangerous Triangle Array Beam.

'Boom!' The violent energy exploded, and the incredibly powerful and Dangerous Triangle Array Beam disrupted Son Goku's attack rhythm, causing his aura to decline to some extent.

"Now!!" Toppo seized the opportunity, unleashing all his destructive power to forcefully shatter Son Goku's Kamehameha.

The colossal Destruction Energy Ball, carrying an extreme destructive force capable of destroying everything, hurtled straight towards Son Goku.

"No good!!" With nowhere to avoid it, Son Goku's expression changed drastically. The God of Destruction Power within caused every cell in his body to scream uncontrollably.

"Aaaaaah~!" Son Goku, who was being swallowed by the Destruction Energy Ball, let out a painful scream.

He tried his best to unleash God Power to resist, but under these circumstances, he was powerless to unleash the higher level of Kaio-ken.

"Hehehe, Son Goku, this is the end you deserve!" Red Wolf Basil chuckled sinisterly.

"If it weren't for you, this Tournament of Power wouldn't have been held. A guy like you deserves to die!" Yellow Wolf Lavender spat out poisonous gas, his eyes flashing with a chilling bloodlust.

"Hmph... In the end, we had the last laugh." The wicked smile on the face of Bergamo, the leader of the Dangerous Trio, grew even more intense.

If Son Goku were to really die, it would be incredibly good news for them.

After all, I didn't die at their hands.

"It's over... Son Goku..." Toppo pressed his advantage, delivering the final, fatal blow to Son Goku.

He raised his right hand, and Destruction Particles appeared in his palm, instantly disappearing into the large Destruction Energy Ball.

As the Destruction Particle entered, the large Destruction Energy Ball suddenly went berserk.

'Boom!' The deafening roar of the Destruction Energy explosion shook the heavens and the earth.

The terrifying power shattered a corner of the arena.

A blinding light of destruction burst forth.

All the contestants on the stage, as well as the God of Destruction and Angels in the Observation Area, perked up at this moment.

A short while later, the destructive light of the explosion dissipated.

'Crackling sound!'

Located at the epicenter of the explosion.

A bottomless pit appeared.

Deep purple lightning still permeated this giant crater.

But... Son Goku was nowhere to be seen.

Furthermore, in terms of aura perception, I can no longer sense any aura related to Son Goku.

"Haha~! Finally dead!! Son Goku is finally dead!!" Bergamo laughed wildly, this move was indeed the right choice.

Their Dangerous Triangle Array Beam caught Son Goku off guard, and finally, with the help of Toppo, they eliminated Son Goku.

In this way, not only will they not be eliminated, but Toppo will be eliminated due to the rules of the competition.

Killing two birds with one stone!!

That was awesome!!

"You guys...!!" Toppo finally realized what was going on.

He's been fooled!

He wondered why these guys from other Universes would suddenly interfere. These two are full of evil intentions; how could they possibly do anything good? If they kill Son Goku, they themselves will be eliminated!

Toppo was now furious and extremely annoyed at himself for losing his composure.

According to the competition rules, he was eliminated after killing Son Goku! "Haha~! A candidate for God of Destruction Candidate can't even figure out such a simple question, how shameful," Basil mocked.

"It's quite amusing to see you so angry. I love the way you high and mighty people are, so furious yet so helpless," Lavender sneered.

At this moment, Toppo could only clench his fists in resentment, turning his gaze to the Supreme Throne on the arena. He had killed Son Goku; how would the Zeno decide his fate?...

On the other side of the ring.

Son Gohan, Piccolo, Android 17, Android 18, Tien Shinhan, Krillin, Master Roshi all noticed what was happening on Son Goku's side.

When Son Goku's aura disappeared, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.

"Dad's ki... disappeared?! How could that be?!" Son Gohan dropped open, his face filled with horror.

His father... really is dead! "Don't jump to conclusions until the very last moment, Gohan." Piccolo's eyes were firm; he believed in Son Goku more than anyone else.

Piccolo, who served as a pillar of support for these people, believed that Son Goku could not possibly die so easily.

He's the strongest Saiyan in this timeline!

Whenever a crisis arises, Son Goku inevitably creates miracles that none of them could have imagined.

"But the energy fluctuations have indeed disappeared..." Android 17 said expressionlessly.

"We really can't sense him anymore." Android 18 frowned. If Son Goku were to die, it wouldn't be good news for Seventh Universe.

"Goku..." Tien Shinhan hesitated, his heart filled with anger, yet he was helpless.

He used to be able to fight alongside Son Goku, but now the gap between them is widening. Son Goku has become a warrior comparable to a god, while he is just an ordinary Martial Artist.

"Goku's ki... is gone... impossible... Goku couldn't possibly be dead!!" Krillin, Son Goku's fellow disciple, refused to accept the fact that Son Goku had died.

No matter who the opponent is, he doesn't believe that Son Goku will die! "..." Master Roshi's expression was serious, and he remained silent for a long time.

This is the Observation Area of Eleventh Universe.

"Damn it!! Toppo killed Son Goku without stopping after using his destructive power, damn it!!" God of Destruction, Belmod furious.

Although defeating Son Goku made him very happy, the fact that Toppo would be eliminated for breaking the rules was just... too much of a rip-off! Toppo was his candidate for God of Destruction, the number two candidate from Eleventh Universe, and it was such a pity that he was eliminated like this.

"Sigh! What a pity, but we still have Jiren. As long as Jiren isn't eliminated, it's not a big deal." Supreme Kai Kai sighed, entrusting all the remaining hope of Eleventh Universe to Jiren.

Only Jiren's overwhelming power could give them peace of mind.

"My Belmod, it's too early to draw conclusions now," Angel Marcarita suddenly said.

Upon hearing this, both Belmod and Kai turned around, completely bewildered.

What did Marcarita mean by that? Could it be... that Son Goku is still alive?! With Belmod and Kai quickly turned their heads and stared intently at the center of the explosion.

If Son Goku were still alive, it would be good news for them, at least for now they wouldn't have to worry about Toppo being eliminated for breaking the rules.

Furthermore, having been engulfed by the power of the God of Destruction Power, Son Goku must be seriously injured; no matter how strong he is, he wouldn't be able to unleash his full power!...

This is the Observation Area in Seventh Universe.

"Son Goku... if you're not dead, get out here right now!!" Beerus clenched his fists, unwilling to believe the news that Son Goku had died.

In his view, although Son Goku is usually dull-witted, he will surely unleash unimaginable power when things get critical.

Miracles happen frequently to this kid.

"Goku ..." The East Supreme Kai was at a loss for words, his mind growing increasingly heavy.

[Kakarot, you can't possibly die so easily. Come out now and show these arrogant fools the power of the Saiyans!] Vegeta frowned, intently watching the center of the energy explosion.

Angel Whis, standing to the side, carefully examined the center of the exploded arena, and after observing for a moment, nodded secretly.

It seems that Son Goku has already taken that step.

Suddenly, the arena began to shake violently.

A familiar and powerful fluctuation of God Power attracted everyone's attention.

"I knew this kid wouldn't die so easily!" Beerus's expression changed from worry to excitement.

"Has Kakarot finally taken the final step too?" Vegeta crossed his arms, waiting for what would happen next.

"The show's about to begin," Whis said with a smile, anticipating the upcoming twists and turns.

Located at the epicenter of the explosion.

A deep, silvery-white beam of energy shot into the sky, causing the entire World of Void to shake violently.

A vast and pure God Power pierced through the chaos, its purity even comparable to Vegeta's transformation into Super Saiyan Blue 3! This vast God Power suddenly erupted, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

Even Talot and Jiren, who were about to engage in battle again, couldn't help but turn their heads away.

"It seems that Kakarot has finally taken the last step and successfully awakened." A smile appeared on Talot's face.

If he wasn't mistaken, this silvery-white light was none Ultra Instinct! Although the current situation differed somewhat from the original story, its essence remained largely unchanged.

Under the baptism of destructive forces, Son Goku teetered between life and death, and by a twist of fate, unleashed all the power within him.

Although the power of destruction has the characteristic of annihilating everything, Son Goku was trained as a candidate for God of Destruction.

Although he dislikes destruction, that doesn't mean he's not skilled at it!

When Toppo's Super Destruction Bullet hit him, it was indirectly absorbed by his body and transformed into pure energy. This inadvertently helped Son Goku break through his limitations and unlock a completely new form.

"To be reborn from the ashes"—that's the Saiyan protagonist's aura! [This God Power... is nothing to worry about.] Jiren briefly sensed it before ignoring the sudden burst of powerful God Power.

In his view, this level of God Power was utterly insignificant.

At most, he's only about the same level as Vegeta.

'Boom!' In an instant, the arena trembled, and countless Super Katchin Steel rocks floated up, only to be crushed into powder by the powerful divine force.

Located in the crater from the explosion.

Son Goku reappears.

At this moment, he looked no different from usual, but a layer of scorching Godly Power Aura surged around his body.
