History

Goku travels with Vegeta, Beerus, and Whis to the Ninja World, eager to find stronger opponents. On the way, he spots a safer route through the Black Abyss than the one Beerus prepared. After entering the new universe, he senses its life forms and points the group toward the Ninja World 251.

He persuades Beerus to let him fight Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara. Goku shatters their large-scale techniques, then recognizes the Kamehameha Wave in their clones' formation. The familiar technique makes him question who taught it to them 256 257. When Ye Fan arrives, Goku and Vegeta compete for the chance to face him; Vegeta fights first 259 260.

After Ye Fan defeats Vegeta, Goku takes his turn. Their sparring escalates from Super Saiyan transformations to Blue, Kaioken, and Tenfold Kaioken. Ye Fan wins their Kamehameha Wave clash, leaving Goku badly injured. Goku subsequently enters Ultra Instinct Sign and resumes the fight, but Ye Fan's growing power eventually defeats him again 268 269 270 271 272 275 280.

Goku returns in Perfected Ultra Instinct. Whis moves the fight to sturdier ground, where Ye Fan's Super Saiyan Fifth Stage gains the upper hand. Vegeta then proposes fusion; despite his injuries, Goku agrees, and the two become Gogeta to continue facing Ye Fan 283 284 285 286 287.

Appearance

Goku wears a red martial arts uniform. In Perfected Ultra Instinct, his hair turns white and his body radiates silver light 258 283.

• His black hair is visible in base form 269.
• His Super Saiyan First Stage emits golden light 257.
• His Super Saiyan Blue form has an azure aura 269.
• His Perfected Ultra Instinct form is marked by an unusually tranquil gaze 283.

Personality

Goku actively seeks difficult fights, even before knowing what awaits him in another world. He is curious about unfamiliar powers and becomes excited when Ye Fan proves stronger than expected 251 262 263. Outside combat, he can be naive enough to miss why Beerus is offended; in a fight, he becomes focused and perceptive 251 257.

He treats Ye Fan as a worthy sparring partner rather than looking down on him. He also protects Vegeta when Ye Fan's attack threatens them both and accepts fusion when neither can defeat Ye Fan alone 269 275 286.

Abilities & Skills

Saiyan Transformations

• Goku uses Super Saiyan First and Third Stages, then Super Saiyan Blue and its full-power state during the Ninja World battles 257 269 270.
• Super Saiyan Third Stage substantially boosts power and speed but consumes stamina rapidly 266.
• In Super Saiyan Blue, his divine aura is notably calm compared with Vegeta's fierce aura 269.

Kaioken

• Kaioken multiplies Goku's power enough to turn the tide temporarily against Ye Fan 270.
• Tenfold Kaioken imposes severe physical strain; Goku's body begins to crack during their prolonged clash 271 272.

Ultra Instinct

• Ultra Instinct Sign lets Goku's body dodge on its own, frustrating Ye Fan's attempts to predict and hit him 275.
• Fighting back disrupts that defensive efficiency, and the form consumes considerable stamina 277.
• Perfected Ultra Instinct brings greater power and composure, but it does not prevent Ye Fan's Super Saiyan Fifth Stage from landing decisive blows 283 285.

Energy Techniques

• Kamehameha Wave — Goku's major energy attack; Ye Fan overpowers his Tenfold Kaioken Super Saiyan Blue version in a direct clash 272.
• Qi Strike — A spinning, disc-like attack that cuts through a mountain after Ye Fan dodges it 285.

Relationships

• Vegeta — Lifelong rival and fellow traveler. They compete for fights, protect one another against Ye Fan, and eventually fuse into Gogeta 251 256 272 275 286 287.
• Ye Fan — A powerful opponent Goku respects and repeatedly challenges. Their battles push Goku from Super Saiyan Blue through Ultra Instinct 268 269 275 283 285.
• Beerus — Travels with Goku and reacts sharply to his innocent questions, but watches his fights closely and is prepared to intervene when he is in danger 251 275.
• Whis — Travels with Goku and directs his attention to what he can learn from Ye Fan's transformation 251 266.
• Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara — Goku's first major opponents in the Ninja World; their use of the Kamehameha Wave surprises him 256 257.
