Although the sight of Shenron practically fleeing in a panic was hilarious to Son Goku and the others, Beerus's words forced them to pick up the pace.
"Five Super Saiyan warriors?" Son Goku's lack of foresight was clearly on display at this moment.
"Me, Vegeta, Gohan, Goten, and Trunks—isn't that exactly five?"
Son Goku laughed as he pulled everyone together; this way, they could summon the Super Saiyan God immediately!
"Ouch!"
Son Goku suddenly felt a heavy blow to the back of his head. Turning around, he saw that it was Vegeta who had struck him.
"Vegeta, why did you hit me? I didn't say anything wrong."
Son Goku looked at Vegeta with a grievance-filled expression.
Even Son Gohan shook his head at his father's reaction.
"You idiot, it requires the power of five Super Saiyan warriors to be channeled into another person—that means we need six Super Saiyans in total!"
Vegeta shouted at Son Goku, completely defeated by the man's mental wiring.
"Oh, oh, oh, six, huh."
Hearing Vegeta put it that way, Son Goku just scratched his head with a grin; it seemed he really had miscalculated.
However, counting Gohan and Trunks, there were only five Super Saiyans present.
They fell short of the six Super Saiyan warriors required to summon the Super Saiyan God.
Son Goku fell into deep thought.
What were they supposed to do now?
"Saiyans, you say?"
Son Gohan suddenly spoke up, carefully leading his wife, Videl, over to the group.
Videl was currently pregnant, her belly visibly rounded.
She placed her hands on her stomach, clearly still a bit confused about the situation.
The life growing inside her was the fruit of her and Son Gohan's love.
It carried the bloodline of a Saiyan as well!
"That's right, Videl!"
Son Goku was overjoyed, having forgotten about her.
Since it was Son Gohan's unborn child, it certainly possessed the bloodline of a Saiyan warrior.
"Huh?"
Videl asked in confusion, but after Son Gohan explained, she spoke up again.
"Will this really work?"
She was a bit skeptical, considering the child hadn't even been born yet and was still inside her.
"No problem, it'll definitely work!"
Son Goku gathered Goten and Trunks as well.
After briefly explaining what they needed to do, they understood their roles.
Everyone stood in a circle with Goku at the center.
They reached out and held hands.
"Has it begun?"
Beerus stood not far away, watching their actions with a faint smile on his lips.
He only hoped that Son Goku and the others wouldn't disappoint him this time.
Otherwise, the Earth would lose its purpose to him.
He would keep his word and destroy the planet completely.
The others watched the scene intently.
Their hearts were in their throats, waiting for the birth of the Super Saiyan God.
"Let's begin!"
Son Goku said in a low voice; truth be told, he was a bit nervous, unsure if this would actually work.
As Son Goku's voice faded, the others began to channel their energy into him.
It flowed slowly toward Son Goku, who stood at the front.
Only Videl, not being a Saiyan warrior herself, could only hold hands and stand on the ground.
However, she was astonished to discover that the child in her womb seemed to be reacting at this moment.
It was as if it were conveying some kind of message to her.
"Yes!"
Videl smiled, and the child in her womb reacted as well.
It was actually slowly channeling energy toward Goten and Trunks, who were standing on either side.
Then, they channeled it to Son Goku.
And Son Goku, standing at the very front, felt the energy being continuously channeled by everyone.
There was Vegeta's, Gohan's, Goten's, and Trunks's.
And there was another energy he had never felt before.
Yet, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
The ritual continued.
Suddenly, golden light began to burst forth from Videl's body, bathing her entire form.
It enveloped her, making her look as if she had turned completely gold.
Even her hair began to flutter.
BOOM!
BOOM-BOOM!!
BOOM-BOOM-BOOM!!!
The next second, the golden aura on her body actually infected everyone present.
Bursts of energy erupted, and golden shockwaves swept outward.
Except for Son Goku, everyone transformed into a Super Saiyan the moment they were enveloped by the golden light.
Even though they hadn't done anything, their bodies seemed to have received an order.
RUMBLE!
For a moment, a majestic aura scattered from them as the center.
It formed rolling waves of energy.
Beerus raised an eyebrow.
Although Son Goku at the front showed no changes, he clearly sensed that something extra had appeared within him.
It was something only they, the gods, possessed.
And Whis, standing behind him, watched Son Goku with great interest.
If nothing went wrong, Son Goku and the others would surely be able to summon the Super Saiyan God this time!
At this moment, golden clouds began to gather in the sky.
It was a scene that existed only in legends.
It was said that only the birth of a god could summon such auspicious clouds.
The spectacle was magnificent.
Just as everyone intended to take out their phones to record the moment, it began to rain from the sky.
But that wasn't all.
The rain immediately turned into snowflakes.
They were massive.
So much so that everyone had to hide in a sheltered spot, abandoning the idea of taking photos.
Meanwhile, Son Goku's body began to change as well.
The original golden light turned red.
In an instant, it illuminated the entire area.
At the same time, Son Goku's aura climbed steadily, reaching an incredible height in just a few moments.
Son Gohan and the others let go of their hands.
What they could do was finished.
The rest would depend on Son Goku himself.
Beerus looked at Son Goku's red back, unable to help but feel excited.
The scene he had seen in his dream flashed through his mind.
His dream was finally about to become reality!
RUMBLE!
The auspicious clouds dispersed, and Son Goku's aura plummeted at this very moment.
It was not that his power had vanished, but rather that it had reached such a height that it had become completely internalized.
At this moment, not only had Son Goku's hair turned red, but his eyes had as well.
His entire appearance seemed much younger.
Unlike the exaggerated physique and muscle mass of the Super Saiyan 3, Son Goku now appeared to have no other obvious changes aside from his hair and eyes.
However, Beerus did not think so.
Because the Son Goku before him was the very person he had foreseen in his dreams, the one he had been searching for.
Super Saiyan God!
