• Piccolo asked Rhode what they should do, and Rhode pointed to the Old Supreme Kai, who questioned Rhode and Aila about their origins.

Rhode persuaded Old Supreme Kai to draw out the fighters’ potential, then revealed that Goten and Trunks had trained in the Time Chamber and could delay Majin Buu. After the boys fused into Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks, Rhode sent him to the battlefield and prepared to begin Old Supreme Kai’s training.

• Rhode promised Old Supreme Kai that Vegeta’s family would cover his favored indulgences, and Old Supreme Kai agreed to help the fighters.

• The Old Supreme Kai explained the immense power gap between Rhode and Aila and the Gods of Destruction, while both Saiyans remained determined to surpass them.
• The Old Supreme Kai told Goku, Kaioshin Shin, and the others about Lord Beerus, prompting astonishment and concern about his temper and long sleep.

• As the Old Supreme Kai danced, Aila and Goku asked Rhode whether the ritual would work, and Rhode told them to wait patiently.
• Rhode offered to let anyone who could not endure the ritual go train elsewhere, then watched Vegeta to see whether he would pass up the opportunity.

• Rhode identified Vegito as Tier Five and realized that his own Super Saiyan 4 form had also reached Tier Five, though Vegito held more energy.

• Kid Buu transformed into his pure evil form and repeatedly self-destructed, but Rhode’s Defense Cover contained every blast.

• Rhode left the spectator stand and caught Aila as she fell.
