Baby kicked Trunks away, but Gohan rushed over to catch him, mocking Baby in the process.

"You're nothing without relying on others' power; you're acting just like a child!"

Kibito Kai approached Pan, reached out his hand, and said, "Pan, it's too dangerous for you here. Let's go."

The group gathered around Son Goku.

Son Goku looked at Kibito Kai and realized with a start, "So it was the Supreme Kai who turned them back to normal."

Gohan said to Son Goku, "Dad, leave the rest to us!"

Goten suggested Fusion to Trunks.

"Let's do it!"

Son Goku stopped them, knowing they couldn't win at their current level.

"Give me all of your Super Saiyan energy. If you do, I'll definitely be able to transform into Full Power Super Saiyan 4."

"Once I become Full Power Super Saiyan 4, I won't lose to him!"

Son Goku clenched his fists tightly.

However, these guys were discussing their plan right in front of Baby—were they afraid he wouldn't hear them? Watching from afar, Gogito was speechless.

As expected, Baby began to prevent them from giving their energy to Son Goku, opening his mouth to launch a frantic attack.

Gohan helped Son Goku dodge, while Baby attacked the others to keep them from getting close to Son Goku.

Suddenly, for reasons unknown, Baby leaped high into the air, and before he could do anything, Son Goku blinded him with a Solar Flare. Baby missed his footing and fell into a ditch that had appeared out of nowhere.

"Goten, Trunks, now's our chance!"

Goten and Trunks immediately rushed to Son Goku's side and began transferring their energy.

The three of them began the energy transfer.

However, Baby quickly recovered, leaped high into the air once more, and assumed the stance for a Galick Gun.

Suddenly, Uub, who was inside Baby, seized the opportunity to manifest a shield-like barrier within Baby's body.

Baby felt as if his body were about to explode; his stomach had swollen to more than twice its size.

Uub urged Son Goku and the others to hurry up and collect the energy, as he couldn't hold on for much longer.

"I thought I had turned that guy into chocolate and eaten him!"

Uub mocked him, "This is my own technique; do you really think I'd fall for it myself? There's no idiot in this world who would do that!"

Baby and Uub began to struggle against one another, but Uub was clearly no match and was spat out by Baby after only a short while.

Baby assumed the Galick Gun stance again, charged up a strike, and blasted it toward Son Goku and the others in the distance.

"BOOM!"

A massive energy explosion sent clouds of thick smoke billowing into the air.

"It looks like we were too late!"

Kibito Kai fell to his knees, his expression filled with despair.

"Yahahaha~"

"Perfect! Perfect!"

"In the end, it had no effect on me."

Baby laughed gleefully, "There isn't a single Saiyan left in this universe! They've all been wiped out!"

"You seem awfully happy?"

Gogito's voice drifted from the distance. Tights and Bulma were still catching up, but Gogito was bored, so he came over to take a look—and slapping Baby in the face sounded like a good way to pass the time.

"Isn't the body you're using a Saiyan's? And I'm a Saiyan too, so how can you claim they've all been wiped out?"

Gogito stood on a pillar behind Kibito Kai, holding Pan in his arms, and spoke indifferently.

Kibito Kai and Old Kai at the Sacred World of the Kai were shocked.

"Vegito!!!"

Both of them had seen the Potara-fused Vegito before, and they were stunned by Gogito's appearance.

Baby, flushed with rage, opened his mouth and fired an energy blast, but Gogito simply reached out his palm and caught it, causing the energy sphere to vanish into thin air.

"I'm not your opponent."

Gogito looked up at the sky, where the smoke was slowly clearing to reveal the arrival of Full Power Super Saiyan 4 Son Goku.

Gogito jumped down to the ground and handed Pan, whom he had been holding, over to Mr. Satan.

"Gogito, why are you here?"

Kibito Kai looked at the Super Saiyan 4 Son Goku in the sky, then at the Golden Great Ape Baby in the distance, unable to fathom how Gogito had appeared.

"Sorry, I'm not a fusion of Son Goku and Vegeta; I don't have any earrings."

Gogito shook his head from side to side, exposing his ears for Kibito Kai to see.

"I just happen to look the same as they do after they fuse."

"I am a pure-blooded Saiyan individual."

Son Goku, Bardock, and Turles all look the same, so what's the big deal if I, Gogito, look like Vegito?

Kibito Kai still found it hard to believe that someone could look exactly like the invincible Vegito!

"Any questions can wait until Goku finishes off this guy."

Gogito cut Kibito Kai off.

Gohan, Goten, and Trunks rose from the pile of sand.

"Is this the full power of Super Saiyan 4?"

"It's incredible!!"

"This power is too immense!"

"Thanks to you guys for this time, and although I don't know who you are, I also want to thank you for saving Pan."

Son Goku thanked Gogito.

"Don't mention it. Even if I hadn't stepped in, you wouldn't have let Pan get hurt."

Gogito waved his hand. Pan was very cute, and he didn't want to see her get hurt either.

Gohan and the others also noticed Gogito behind them, but they didn't ask any questions, deciding to wait until Baby was dealt with.

Pan looked at Gogito's face, feeling a sense of familiarity, but she couldn't quite place it.

Son Goku and Baby began their final showdown.

Son Goku slowly ascended, all the while talking trash.

"I thought your ki was quite impressive just a moment ago, but now it doesn't look like much."

Baby grew irritated, roaring loudly as he unleashed all the power within his body.

Son Goku also let out a loud roar, exploding with his full power.

The red and gold energy spheres collided violently, but neither could gain the upper hand.

The energy exploded instantly, causing the surrounding boulders to shatter and scatter.

Gogito raised his hand, casting an energy barrier to shield everyone and block the shockwave.

Son Goku and Baby simultaneously extended their palms, firing energy blasts.

The two blasts collided, triggering a terrifying explosion.

Son Goku and Baby now stood on the ground, and Baby began to talk trash as well.

"You really are something, Son Goku, but I am far stronger than you!"

Son Goku was not to be outdone.

"That's hard to say. Your power is indeed strong and it excites me, but you absolutely cannot stand against a Super Saiyan 4."

"Then let's see about that!"

Baby and Son Goku closed the distance, engaging in Prince Tactics, bombarding each other with a flurry of attacks. After a series of Big Bang Attack explosions, the two separated, both panting heavily.

Gohan and the others were debating who was stronger when Gogito spoke up.

"Their current power levels are about the same; they are evenly matched. However, the potential of Super Saiyan 4 goes far beyond this. Watch closely; Goku will definitely win."

Son Goku resumed his verbal assault, taunting Baby to hurry up and take him down.

Baby was clearly losing his cool, gathering energy in his hands.

"Super Galick Gun!"

The attack missed Son Goku, who continued to mock him.

"Is this really the extent of your full-power strike? You're so disappointing!"

Enraged, Baby fired continuously.

"Continuous Super Galick Gun!"

A barrage of energy blasts struck at Son Goku, creating several deep craters filled with magma.

Baby seized the opportunity to hide behind the smoke, condensing a Revenge Death Ball. The massive Revenge Death Ball struck Son Goku, who had no time to dodge and was forced to take it head-on.

Son Goku was pushed back against a giant boulder, completely engulfed by the Revenge Death Ball, clearly in great pain.

Pan tried to rush forward to help, but Gogito grabbed her, saying, "Watch closely, Baby is about to lose."

Goku clenched his fists and roared madly, rapidly absorbing Baby's Revenge Death Ball until it was gone in moments.

Seeing his strongest attack absorbed by Goku, Baby was visibly terrified.

Goku then assumed the stance for the Kamehameha and said, "Baby, you have no chance of winning left. I am going to destroy you with my own hands."

He fired a 10x Kamehameha from his hands, blasting Baby away and slamming him heavily into the ground.

Goku fired another energy blast, severing the Great Ape's tail. Vegeta's body began to shrink, and unable to remain inside, Baby crawled out and prepared to flee.

Seeing that Goku had hesitated for too long, Gogito raised his hand and fired a ki blast, ending Baby's sinful life.
