Whis's words sent a jolt through the two Trunks. This was nothing like the training they were used to; wasn't the whole point of training to increase their power? Yet, according to Whis, power wasn't the most important thing—the state of one's spirit was.

Gogito already had his own understanding of these concepts and wasn't surprised, though hearing Whis's words made him realize his own level still left much to be desired.

"Alright, let's begin the training."

Whis led the three of them to an open field. He conjured his staff and waved it over the ground, causing two iron blocks to appear in front of Future Trunks and Trunks. Each block had two holes, allowing them to slip their arms through and lift them with ease.

"Now, gentlemen, please start with some strength and endurance training."

"Carry these and walk a lap around the World of the God of Destruction. If you walk too slowly, I might just tap you into another dimension!"

Whis pointed to the path behind them that was already beginning to fade, scaring the two into starting their training immediately.

"Why is this so heavy?"

The two struggled to lift the iron blocks, moving forward at a snail's pace.

"That is a weight I tailored specifically for you two."

Whis covered his mouth and chuckled.

Watching the two figures gradually move into the distance, Whis began to guide Gogito's training.

"Mr. Gogito, your current level is sufficient to begin learning that technique."

"It involves separating your body from your consciousness, allowing every part of your body to react automatically without needing to think through the brain first. It allows you to become faster and stronger..."

Whis gave a brief explanation of the capabilities of Ultra Instinct Omen.

Sure enough, Whis began teaching Gogito Ultra Instinct Omen.

"If you can truly master this technique, you will generate the power of the gods and enter the true realm of the gods."

"Now, let Mr. Gogito get a feel for it."

Whis gestured for Gogito to attack.

Gogito rushed forward and launched an assault on Whis. Whis dodged with fluid grace, moving like a butterfly dancing in a sea of flowers; Vegito couldn't land a single hit on him.

After a brief exchange, Whis called a halt.

"Mr. Gogito, how does it feel?"

"It's incredible!"

Gogito felt as if Whis were a cloud; before his fist could even reach him, the wind from his punch would blow the target away, making it impossible to touch him.

Gogito described his sensations.

"But I'm still completely lost."

"That's fine. This technique is inherently difficult to learn. Even Lord Beerus spent many years before he could barely use it, and even he hasn't been able to master it perfectly."

Whis encouraged Gogito, telling him to relax his mind.

And so, the three of them stayed in the World of the God of Destruction to train.

Half a month later, in the World of the God of Destruction.

Gogito and the two Trunks were sparring. Gogito was attempting the Ultra Instinct Omen that Whis had taught him. The two Trunks attacked Gogito with everything they had while Gogito dodged, with Whis providing guidance from the sidelines.

"Mr. Gogito, calm your heart and let your body act on its own."

Gogito furrowed his brows, still unable to grasp the magic-like nature of Ultra Instinct Omen.

After practicing for a while without making any headway, Whis called for a break.

"It's still too difficult, Whis."

Gogito said helplessly.

"Don't be discouraged, Mr. Gogito. I believe that with your talent, it won't be long before you learn it; you just haven't found the trick to it yet."

After half a month of training, Whis discovered that Gogito possessed terrifying potential—the most potential he had seen in all his years, even surpassing Lord Beerus.

"Alright, don't think about it so much. Let's go get something to eat first."

Whis's voice pulled Gogito's thoughts back to reality. Hearing the word "eat," Gogito threw all his problems to the back of his mind; now, his heart was filled only with thoughts of gourmet food.

Another month passed.

"Mr. Gogito's movements are looking more and more like it!"

Whis's voice drifted from afar. The two Trunks, who were busy mowing the grass, looked up to see Gogito attacking Whis. Gogito still hadn't managed to touch Whis, but it was clear that his movements had undergone a significant change, becoming much more ethereal.

"That is all thanks to your guidance, Whis."

Gogito stopped his attack and said to Whis.

"Hmph, that brat still has a long way to go."

In the distance, Lord Beerus still wore his usual tsundere expression, but the slight upturn of his lips showed that he acknowledged Gogito.

From that point on, Gogito's understanding of Ultra Instinct Omen progressed by leaps and bounds. In less than half a year, he successfully crossed the threshold and mastered Ultra Instinct Omen.

"The Ultra Instinct Omen that Gogito has grasped cannot yet freely control attacks; it can only passively dodge them. Furthermore, the duration is extremely short, so it is not yet the perfect state."

"However, Gogito is already incredibly impressive. To have grasped Ultra Instinct in less than half a year—according to my projections, it should have taken him at least a year."

"Lord Beerus took..."

Before Whis could finish his sentence, he heard Beerus roar.

"Shut up, Whis!"

Seeing that Beerus was angry, Whis stopped talking; if he continued, Beerus might actually start throwing punches.

"Lord Beerus, Mr. Whis, we are preparing to return to Earth."

Gogito and the others had been at the World of the God of Destruction for nearly half a year, and the food they brought had basically run out. They planned to head back; after all, training requires a balance of work and rest, and they were ready for a break.

"We'll go along too, Whis."

Beerus was missing the delicacies of Earth, having not tasted them for over half a year. Whis was also feeling a bit peckish, so the group set off for Earth without delay.

After nearly half a year of training, Gogito had successfully mastered Ultra Instinct Omen and the Super Saiyan Blue transformation, Future Trunks had successfully transformed into Super Saiyan God, and Trunks had reached Super Saiyan 2.

After Beerus and Whis enjoyed a wonderful meal on Earth and returned to the World of the God of Destruction, Gogito also prepared to return to his own timeline. Having been away for so long, he was starting to miss Tights.

The original plan was to return after teaching Trunks for a while, but due to the arrival of Future Trunks and the unexpected acquaintance with Beerus and Whis, Gogito did not want to pass up such a good opportunity to train, so he decided to stay a while longer.

In that half-year, Vegeta and Nappa had long since arrived on Earth. It was just unclear how the battle had gone. Kid Gohan's power level had surpassed Vegeta's, and with the training from Master Roshi, it should be safe to assume they could survive the ordeal.

It was just uncertain whether Frieza would still learn about the Dragon Balls on Namek through the eavesdropping device on Vegeta's Scouter. This time, Piccolo had not died, so he hadn't revealed the information about Namek.

Gogito turned his thoughts elsewhere, realizing he had yet to meet the Son Goku of this world. Given Son Goku's personality, if he found out about his existence, he would surely pester him for pointers. Just thinking about it gave Gogito a headache.

Forget it. If it really comes down to it, I'll just use a clone to brush him off. I can't let him ruin my time cuddling with my wife.
