Chapter Summaries

At a gathering of Supreme Kais, Anato introduced Raditz as Universe 7’s new Supreme Kai and revealed a prophecy that the Demon Realm would return under the leadership of an overwhelmingly powerful figure. The prophecy’s unknown enemy left Raditz wary, especially after he realized that the warning referred to multiple figures.

• Shin mediated when Roh resented Raditz, and the Supreme Kais gathered as more attendees arrived.
• Fuwa and Dolun greeted Raditz, and Dolun humbly apologized for his earlier disrespect.
• Anato opened the meeting by introducing Raditz as Universe 7’s new Supreme Kai.
• Anato revealed that a prophet had foretold the Demon Realm’s return and the destruction of all resisters, including the gods.
• Roh dismissed the prophecy, but Gowasu urged caution, and Raditz suspected that the threat involved more than one person.

After learning that a prophecy pointed to the Ancient Ruins, Raditz and the Supreme Kais entered the forbidden realm to investigate. They discovered that the Angel of Universe 18, Regus, was missing from the place where the Angels slept.

• Anato told the Supreme Kais that a seer had found clues pointing to the Ancient Ruins, where gods were buried.

• Raditz and the Supreme Kais entered the Ancient Ruins and found a vast, desolate realm filled with divine pillars and chants.
• Ail noticed that one Angel was missing from the ancient tree, and the group identified him as Regus, the Angel of Universe 18.

The gods investigated the remnants of six erased universes and discovered that their Angel, Regus, had vanished. Raditz recognized Zamasu’s hatred of humanity and arranged for him to spar with Dolun, leaving the two Apprentice Supreme Kais poised to face each other.

• Anato urged the gods to report Regus’s disappearance to the Grand Minister, and Fuwa and Gowasu suggested searching the remnants for more clues.

• Zamasu approached Raditz and requested a spar, but Raditz said he was not yet qualified to fight him.
• Raditz summoned Dolun and proposed that he spar with Zamasu, who accepted the match.

Dolun and Zamasu fought a sparring match at the Primordial Ruins, where Dolun’s strength and composure gradually gave him the advantage. After being driven into the ground, Zamasu refused to surrender and charged back into the fight.

• Dolun slammed Zamasu into the ground, leaving Gowasu shocked as Raditz said the fight had not ended.
• Zamasu burst out of the smoke, formed a Ki blade, and shouted that he had not lost.

Dolun defeated Zamasu in a fierce battle at the Ancient Ruins, drawing the Supreme Kais’ attention to his strength and Raditz’s influence. After refusing to train Zamasu, Raditz returned to the search as the five remaining Angels awakened atop the ancient tree.

• Zamasu and Dolun clashed with Ki Blades, and Raditz’s Psychic Wall shielded the others from the battle’s destructive shockwaves.
• Dolun rose after the clash while Zamasu collapsed, and the Supreme Kais recognized Dolun as the winner.
• Zamasu admitted defeat and praised Dolun, who credited Raditz’s guidance; Raditz then remarked that he was still somewhat behind a God of Destruction.
• Roh called an end to the spectators’ discussion, and the Supreme Kais resumed searching the ruins while Dolun and Fuwa flew off.
• Zamasu asked Raditz for guidance, but Raditz refused and advised him to lower his pride and rely on his own talent.
• The Supreme Kais continued searching as the five remaining Angels opened their eyes atop the ancient tree.

• The gods returned to the venue and Anato said the strange events in the Ancient Ruins suggested the prophecy was beginning to unfold.
• Shin asked how Regus had left despite an Angel's functions being stopped, and Roh said they would need to ask the Grand Minister.
• Anato asked Raditz for his opinion, and Raditz suggested leaving the matter to their superiors while preparing each universe for a possible attack.
• Roh criticized Universe 7's status and questioned why it had three Supreme Kais, prompting Raditz to challenge him.

Frieza sent Tagoma to attack the Saiyans’ planet and gave Sorbet command of an elite force to strike the Galactic Justice Alliance, while he led the main fleet toward Earth. After destroying the planet they had just left, Frieza ordered the journey shortened to four months and went to hibernate.

• Frieza assigned Tagoma to lead the vanguard against the Saiyans’ planet and Sorbet to command elite troops against the Galactic Justice Alliance.

Raditz returned from the Supreme Kais’ meeting with news that the Angels had awakened, then left to train while the others waited for the looming threat. Nappa and Ariel’s son and Krillin and Afuna’s daughter were born, and Raditz saw the powerful children as the start of the Saiyan people’s revival.

• Raditz told Shin and Old Kai that Universe 7 had grown stronger and said they should carry on as usual while he trained.
• Nappa and Ariel’s son, Napaton, was born, followed two days later by Krillin and Afuna’s daughter.

• Raditz visited the nursery and found that both sleeping children had Battle Power in the hundreds, with Napaton’s being higher.
• Raditz reflected that the children represented a new generation and the beginning of the Saiyan people’s revival.

Raditz arrived at Beerus’s Realm and found Goku and Vegeta had awakened Super Saiyan Blue, though their new forms were still incomplete and could not match Raditz’s Super Saiyan Orange. After their exhausting spar, Whis proposed that they test their strength against Beerus, leaving Beerus surprised.

• Raditz entered the God of Destruction's Realm seeking a breakthrough and found Goku and Vegeta fighting in Super Saiyan Blue.
• Whis explained that Goku and Vegeta had recently achieved the powerful but energy-draining transformation.

• Raditz praised their progress but said Super Saiyan Blue was not yet enough to match his Super Saiyan Orange.
• Whis restored the fighters and the damaged surroundings, then suggested that Goku and Vegeta spar with Beerus, startling Beerus.

Raditz, Goku, and Vegeta fought Beerus after Whis provoked a challenge, but Beerus overwhelmed Goku and Vegeta and tested Raditz's abilities. The battle continued as Raditz grew more formidable, and Whis observed that he was catching up to Beerus, who was using sixty percent of his strength.

• Whis provoked Beerus into fighting Raditz, Goku, and Vegeta, and Beerus agreed not to use Destruction Energy.
• Raditz entered his Super Orange state while Goku and Vegeta powered up as Super Saiyan Blue, and Whis started the fight.

• Raditz got back up and traded dozens of blows with Beerus, while Whis noted that Raditz was catching up despite Beerus using sixty percent of his strength.

Raditz, Goku, and Vegeta fought Beerus, who easily overwhelmed them after testing their combined strength. Meanwhile, Frieza's forces attacked the Galactic Justice Alliance, and Frieza appeared on its command center screen to address Jeice.

• Jeice ordered his communications officer to connect him to Earth's command center so he could speak with Bulma.
• Frieza's prerecorded image appeared on the Alliance's main screen, and Jeice froze as Frieza said, "Long time no see."

Jeice and Burter discovered that Frieza's forces had returned and sought help, so Tarble set out alone to defend the Galactic Justice Alliance. Tarble intercepted Sorbet's fleet and learned Frieza was not with it, leaving Frieza's whereabouts uncertain as Tarble faced the attacking elites.

• Jeice and Burter saw Frieza's image and contacted Bulma when Raditz could not be reached.
• Bulma sent Tarble to support the Galactic Justice Alliance, but he left Gohan, Broly, and the others on Earth to defend it.
• Tagoma kept his fleet concealed and slowed its advance so it could join Frieza in a two-front attack later.
• Sorbet ordered his forces to destroy planets in another Alliance blockade zone, but Tarble appeared and froze the fleet with his overwhelming pressure.
• Sorbet sent his elites after Tarble while preparing a Laser Gun ambush, and Tarble unleashed golden light and Ki across the spaceship.

• Whis told Beerus that Shin wanted Raditz to deal with Frieza, who was suspected of attacking the Galactic Justice Alliance.
• Whis revealed that Frieza was heading for Earth and would arrive in three months, so Raditz ordered Goku and Vegeta to train and master Super Saiyan Blue before the fight.
