Arc 2The Super Saiyan God Battle
Son Goku and Vegeta fused to challenge Beerus, but their strongest attacks could not overcome the God of Destruction. After Vegeta gave his remaining energy to Son Goku, Goku merged with another version of himself, awakened Super Saiyan 5: God of Destruction, and vanished into a space-time tunnel, leaving Beerus to assume he had died.
- Beerus threatened to destroy Earth when Son Goku could not identify the Super Saiyan God, and Goku challenged him in Super Saiyan 4 before breaking past that form’s limits.
- Son Goku awakened Super Saiyan 4: Limit Breaker and later Super Saiyan 4 God State, but Beerus remained stronger and Goku returned to Earth to ask Vegeta to fuse.
- Bulma persuaded Vegeta to fuse with Son Goku, and they became Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta, whose power carried their fight with Beerus across the universe and into the World of Void.
- Gogeta transformed into Super Saiyan 4 God Blue and battled Beerus with increasingly powerful attacks, but the fusion ended before he could defeat him.
- Beerus sent his Ultimate Destruction Sphere at Son Goku and Vegeta, and Vegeta gave his remaining energy to Goku before the sphere engulfed him.
- Inside the sphere, Son Goku merged spirits with GT Son Goku, absorbed the God of Destruction Power, and emerged as Super Saiyan 5: God of Destruction.
- Son Goku shattered the World of Void’s barrier and was swept into a space-time tunnel, while Whis rescued Beerus and Beerus found no trace of Goku.
