Lin Chen faced Zeno after Gowasu accused him of killing Universe 10’s Supreme Kai candidate, Zamasu. The Grand Minister judged Lin Chen’s explanation credible, but Rumsshi challenged the lack of evidence before a girl claimed she had proof.

• Zamasu waited for Goku Black to return, then used his Time Ring to travel to Trunks’s world when three days passed without word.
• The Grand Minister brought Lin Chen, Whis, and Shin to Zeno’s Palace, where Gowasu accused Lin Chen of killing Zamasu without authorization.

• The Grand Minister said Zamasu deserved to die if Lin Chen’s account was true, and Zeno accepted that Lin Chen did not seem like a bad person.
• Rumsshi objected that Lin Chen had no evidence, but a little girl announced that she had proof.

Chronoa defended Lin Chen by presenting evidence that Zamasu had become a threat in another timeline and might have killed Gowasu. She revealed that Zamasu in Timeline 16 murdered Son Goku, Gowasu, and Super Shenron before escaping, but his later whereabouts remained unknown.

• Chronoa arrived at the gathering and told Zeno she had evidence explaining Zamasu's death on Lin Chen's behalf.
• Chronoa explained the difference between main and minor timelines and said she had investigated the 36 timelines where Zamasu existed.
• Chronoa showed everyone events from Timeline 16, where Zamasu swapped bodies with Son Goku, killed him and Super Shenron, then murdered Gowasu and stole the Time Ring.
• Chronoa argued that Lin Chen's actions had prevented Gowasu from suffering the same fate, and Gowasu admitted he had been wrong.
• Rumsshi demanded to know where the Timeline 16 Zamasu had gone, but Chronoa said she could no longer track him after he left the timeline.

Lin Chen revealed that he had killed one Zamasu, and Chronoa discovered that dark magic on Zamasu’s Time Ring had hidden his movements and enabled travel between timelines. As Lin Chen prepared to investigate another Zamasu, a Zamasu in Lin Chen’s timeline watched footage of Broly and Lin Chen and decided the zero mortals plan needed to change.

• Lin Chen showed Chronoa and Gowasu the Time Ring from the Zamasu he had killed, confirming his account.
• Chronoa found dark magic on the ring and concluded that someone from the Dark Demon World had helped Zamasu cross timelines and evade her observations.
• Chronoa discovered that Timeline 27 had another Zamasu and that she could no longer observe it, so the Grand Minister asked her to investigate while Lin Chen agreed to help.
• The Grand Minister arranged for Zeno to give Lin Chen a Summoning Button as protection against another timeline’s Zeno, and Lin Chen and Chronoa planned to meet on Earth.
• In Universe 10’s Sacred World of the Kai, a Zamasu watched footage of Broly and Lin Chen, then concluded that Son Goku’s body alone would not be enough for the zero mortals plan.

Zamasu learned that Goku Black was likely dead and fled before Rumsshi destroyed his residence. As Trunks and the others traveled to the future, another Zamasu used Super Shenron to try to take Lin Chen's body, trapping them in a struggle inside Lin Chen's consciousness.

• Zamasu overheard Gowasu and Rumsshi discussing Goku Black, realized Goku Black had likely died, and vowed to continue the zero mortals plan.
• Zamasu used Instant Transmission to escape, and Rumsshi erased Zamasu's residence with a blast of destruction.
• Bulma prepared fuel for the Time Machine, and Future Trunks, Son Goku, Vegeta, and Frieza traveled to Trunks's timeline while Lin Chen stayed behind.
• Lin Chen collapsed after a surge of the power of miracles invaded him, and Whis recognized that Lin Chen was resisting it with his power of rules.
• Inside Lin Chen's sea of consciousness, Zamasu revealed that he had used Super Shenron to seize Lin Chen's body, but Lin Chen's own power of miracles held him off.

Lin Chen resisted Zamasu’s attempt to take his body, but Super Shenron’s power of miracles overwhelmed him and the body swap succeeded. Lin Chen used his power of time to reverse events, then traveled to the Super Dragon Balls Summoning Site to stop Zamasu, only to find that Zamasu had vanished.

• Whis suspected that Super Shenron’s power was affecting Lin Chen, and a golden light entered Lin Chen’s unconscious body.
• Super Shenron intervened in Lin Chen’s sea of consciousness, and Lin Chen transformed into Reverse Ultra Instinct to resist its power of miracles.
• Lin Chen failed to stop the body swap, and Zamasu took control of his body and prepared to destroy Earth.
• Lin Chen used his power of time to rewind events to the moment Son Goku and his group departed in the Time Spaceship.
• Whis located the gathered Super Dragon Balls, and Lin Chen used Instant Transmission to reach their summoning site.
• Lin Chen found Super Shenron and a frightened Zuno at the site, but Zamasu had already disappeared.

Lin Chen used Super Shenron to mark the Zamasus across the timelines after learning that Zamasu had escaped using his Time Ring. In Timeline 32, Zamasu killed Gowasu, then confronted another Zamasu who warned that their plan had to change.

• Zuno told Lin Chen that Zamasu had fled the timeline with his Time Ring after recognizing Lin Chen’s time-reversal power.
• Lin Chen let Zuno go and asked Super Shenron to reveal and mark the Zamasus across the timelines.
• Super Shenron marked the Zamasus in the other thirty-four main timelines with an impossible-to-hide red glow.
• In Timeline 32, Zamasu’s glow exposed his suspicious behavior to Gowasu, but Zamasu still killed him.
• The Zamasu from Timeline 16 appeared and warned Timeline 32’s Zamasu that they needed to revise the Zero Mortals Plan before someone hunted them down.

After using Super Shenron’s power to mark Zamasu across the timelines, Lin Chen recovered and joined Chronoa to investigate. They discovered multiple Zamasus gathering in Timeline 16, where Son Goku and his allies were struggling against two fused Zamasus.

• Lin Chen returned to Earth, explained how he had stopped Zamasu from stealing his body, and collapsed from exhaustion.
• After Lin Chen woke, Chronoa confirmed that anomalies had appeared in twelve main timelines and slowed time in the other twenty-four.
• Chronoa found several Zamasus gathering in Timeline 16, so she and Lin Chen headed there to help Son Goku’s group.
• In Timeline 16, two Goku Blacks and two immortal Zamasus appeared and fought Son Goku, Vegeta, Frieza, and Future Trunks.
• The four enemies fused with Potara Earrings into two Fused Zamasus, turning the battle against Son Goku’s group.

Lin Chen arrived in Space-Time 16 as two immortal Fused Zamasus attacked Frieza, Trunks, Goku, and Vegeta. He confronted them with Super Saiyan Silver-Gray power, but the Zamasus regenerated from his devastating blow and revealed their strength was still increasing.

• Two Fused Zamasus overwhelmed Frieza and Future Trunks, and Frieza urged the others to flee and seek Lord Lin Chen.
• Son Goku revealed the Potara Earrings Lin Chen had given him, but Lin Chen and Chronoa arrived before Goku and Vegeta could fuse.
• Lin Chen gave Trunks a bag of Senzu Beans and asked Chronoa to seal off the space-time so the Zamasus could not escape.
• Lin Chen transformed into Super Saiyan Silver-Gray and tore through the Fused Zamasus’ combined Ki Blast barrage, punching a hole through one of them.
• The wounded Fused Zamasu instantly regenerated and declared that Super Shenron had granted them immortal bodies as his power continued rising beyond twenty billion.

Lin Chen fought the two immortal Fused Zamasus, overpowering them with powerful attacks but failing to kill them. He tried a God of Destruction's power of destruction, only to discover that Zamasu's body regenerated even after being reduced to dust.

• Fused Zamasu attacked Lin Chen with Katchin Steel cubes, but Lin Chen's Planet Crusher burned the two Zamasus to ashes before they regenerated.
• Lin Chen fought both Fused Zamasus and struck them with a Kamehameha, but they survived the blast and regenerated again.
• Lin Chen used Super Kaioken to overpower the Zamasus, then unleashed a God of Destruction's power of destruction on one of them.
• Fused Zamasu crumbled into dust under the attack, but his immortal body rapidly regenerated and returned him to normal.
• Lin Chen realized that the power of destruction alone could not kill Zamasu.

Lin Chen discovered that his power of destruction could not overcome the miracle-based immortality Super Shenron granted Fused Zamasu, so he fought the two Zamasus with ki sickles and then used the Light of Annihilation. One Fused Zamasu was erased for good, and the survivor resolved to eliminate Lin Chen as the greatest threat to the Zero Mortals Plan.

• Fused Zamasu survived Lin Chen's power of destruction and celebrated that Super Shenron's immortality could withstand it.
• Vegeta reassured Trunks that Lin Chen had more powerful moves, while both Fused Zamasus created ki sickles and attacked him.
• Lin Chen learned and wielded a ki sickle, and the fighters gathered around Chronoa as the battle's rifts endangered the planet.
• Lin Chen cut both Fused Zamasus in half and unleashed the Light of Annihilation, which erased one of them by countering his miracle-based immortality.
• The surviving Fused Zamasu feared Lin Chen's godlike power and resolved to eliminate him.

Lin Chen destroyed one Fused Zamasu, but Zamasu had summoned versions of himself from across the timelines, including body stealers with powerful warriors’ bodies. Lin Chen and the others tried to stop them from fusing, but five Fused Zamasus remained as the battle continued.

• Lin Chen blocked Fused Zamasu from escaping, but Zamasu revealed that he had used the Time Ring to summon his other selves across the timelines.
• More than a dozen Zamasus arrived, including body stealers using the bodies of Broly, Vegeta, Frieza, and Jiren.
• Black Jiren and the original Fused Zamasu planned to fuse with the others and eliminate Lin Chen.
• Trunks, Son Goku, Vegeta, Frieza, and Lin Chen attacked to stop the Zamasus and body stealers from fusing.
• Lin Chen killed a Goku Black and obliterated the Fused Zamasu who confronted him with the Light of Annihilation, but five other Fused Zamasus appeared.

With Lin Chen depleted and five immortal Fused Zamasus still standing, Chronoa summoned reinforcements from his memories. The newcomers fused into powerful warriors and joined Broly and Hit in a desperate battle, while Frieza charged into Gotenks's fight.

• Lin Chen's side found itself outnumbered after five Fused Zamasus survived, and Lin Chen had exhausted most of his divine power.
• Chronoa summoned Broly, Lin Luo, Taro, Goten, Trunks, Caulifla, Kale, and Hit to reinforce Lin Chen's side.
• Jiren Zamasu ordered the five Fused Zamasus to attack with Judgment Blades, and Broly blocked them with an Energy Shield.
• Lin Luo and the others fused into Gotenks, Taro, and Kallil, while Goku and Vegeta used Potara Earrings to become Vegito.
• Vegito, the three other fusion warriors, Broly, and Hit engaged the five Fused Zamasus in battle.
• Frieza transformed into Golden Frieza and charged into Gotenks's fight after noticing Gotenks was struggling.

Vegito and Lin Chen’s fighters gained ground against the five fused Zamasus, but the Zamasus used earrings granted by Super Shenron to merge into one being across the timelines. The chapter ended as their final fusion emerged beneath a golden Divine Ring.

• Vegito battled Jiren Zamasu while the other fighters held their own against the remaining fused Zamasus.
• Vegito and Jiren Zamasu’s attacks destroyed the planet, and Chronoa used her divine power to let the fighters breathe in space for one hour.
• The five fused Zamasus put on unfamiliar Potara Earrings and revealed that a wish to Super Shenron had granted them the power to fuse together.
• Jiren Zamasu put on the black earring and the five fused Zamasus merged into a single being.
• A golden Divine Ring appeared as the newly fused Zamasu laughed in space.

God Zamasu killed Trunks and overwhelmed Vegito despite Vegito's transformation into Deep Blue. Vegito risked his life with 10x Kaioken as the battle continued.

• God Zamasu seized Trunks and pierced his heart with a beam of light.
• Vegito's fury pushed him into the Deep Blue state, while Lin Chen asked Chronoa to accelerate his recovery and Gotenks went to save Trunks with a Senzu Bean.
• Vegito attacked God Zamasu with a Final Kamehameha, but God Zamasu's Ki Blade overpowered it.
• Vegito used 10x Kaioken to resist God Zamasu, causing his blood vessels to burst as he gambled his life for more power.

After Vegito and the others failed to stop God Zamasu’s attack, Lin Chen stepped in despite having recovered only enough divine power to transform into Super Saiyan Silver-Gray. Their battle left Lin Chen struggling against Zamasu’s superior strength, and Zamasu then sent a distant asteroid hurtling toward him.

• Vegito stopped God Zamasu’s Ki Blade with the Final Kamehameha but exhausted himself, and Trunks and the others joined forces to hold back Zamasu’s next attack.
• Lin Chen intercepted the Ki Blade with his Ki Sickle and ordered Taro and the others to take Vegito to safety.
• God Zamasu transformed his Divine Ring into a giant golden bird and attacked Lin Chen with Absolute Thunder, which Lin Chen cut apart with his Ki Sickle.
• Lin Chen and God Zamasu clashed with their Ki Sickles, sending shock waves across nearby planets while Chronoa protected Trunks and the others.
• After they separated, Lin Chen realized Zamasu had surpassed him in strength, and Zamasu used Psychokinesis to pull an asteroid from its orbit and send it toward Lin Chen.

Lin Chen fought God Zamasu as he hurled celestial bodies at him, while Chronoa tried to stop the battle from destroying the universe. Lin Chen and Chronoa transported themselves and Zamasu to the Sacred World of the Kai, where an explosion sent them flying.

• God Zamasu sent asteroids, planets, and the star at Lin Chen, who cut them apart with his Ki Sickle before escaping the star’s gravity with Instant Transmission.
• Lin Chen appeared behind God Zamasu and fired a Kamehameha, but Zamasu used the power of space to redirect it.
• Chronoa sent Vegito and the others to the Sacred World of the Kai, then tried to immobilize God Zamasu with a time technique.
• God Zamasu began breaking free and prepared to attack Chronoa, so Lin Chen joined his power with hers to freeze Zamasu.
• Chronoa transported herself, Lin Chen, and God Zamasu to the Sacred World of the Kai, where an explosion sent Lin Chen and Chronoa flying backward.

With his divine power exhausted, Lin Chen could no longer use his Black God state, leaving the others vulnerable to God Zamasu. Lin Chen transformed into Super Saiyan 4 and faced Zamasu alone, but the chapter ended with Zamasu striking him with an even larger bolt of golden lightning.

• After the explosion, Lin Chen recovered but found that he could not transform into Super Saiyan Silver-Gray or enter his Black God state, even after eating a Senzu Bean.
• God Zamasu attacked the group, severely injuring Broly and causing Vegito and the others to fall as the Sacred World of the Kai began to crumble.
• Lin Chen told Chronoa to take the others away and transformed into Super Saiyan 4, revealing the form to everyone.
