Chapter Summaries

After mastering Super Saiyan God on his own, Raditz qualified for Whis’s offer and left with him for the God of Destruction’s Realm. Vegeta and the others stayed behind, determined to pursue the Divine Realm themselves.

Raditz tested his Super Saiyan God power in Universe 7's Trial Ground of Gods and pushed through its escalating attacks until he came within one step of the finish before collapsing. Whis rescued him, healed him, and explained how Raditz's Godly Realm surpassed the basic Reserve God state, leaving Raditz close to—but not yet at—the level of a True God.
