Watching Cooler completely vanish into ash, Gohan used Instant Transmission to return to Earth.
At this moment, he had not yet deactivated his Super Saiyan 4 state.
This state consumed very little energy and did not affect his actions in any way.
Therefore, Gohan wanted to experience this new form a bit more to confirm whether it had any other effects on his body.
Seeing Gohan return, everyone gathered around him.
They examined Gohan in his Super Saiyan 4 state, their eyes filled with both curiosity and shock.
"Gohan, you took care of it, right?" Yamcha asked first.
"Yeah, he's probably on his way to report to the Other World right now." Gohan nodded.
"Uh..."
"Haha, Gohan, you're really humorous." Yamcha laughed, reaching up to scratch the back of his head.
"Gohan, you've changed so much in this form, I almost couldn't recognize you."
Krillin walked over and held up his hand to measure, finding that his bald head barely reached Gohan's chest.
Sigh~
Gohan laughed: "Haha, this is just a transformation; once I deactivate it, I'll return to my original appearance."
"That's so amazing, Gohan." Son Goku did not hold back his praise for his son, patting Gohan's sturdy shoulder.
Vegeta said nothing but kept examining Gohan.
He knew that someone would eventually ask the questions he wanted to know.
For instance, his good son Trunks started asking.
"Brother Gohan, what kind of transformation is this? It's so cool."
He really wanted to tug at the dark red fur on Gohan's body...
"This? It's an alternative, mutated transformation where I bear the power of the Great Ape in human form. Let's just call it Super Saiyan 4."
"Super Saiyan 4? Gohan? Can I develop this transformation too?" Son Goku asked curiously.
Gohan nodded and patiently explained: "In theory, it's possible, but Dad, you don't have a tail, and you need to maintain your sanity after turning into a Great Ape, so it might be a bit difficult for you right now."
"Do I need a tail to transform?" Son Goku asked, somewhat puzzled.
"This is also my first time transforming, so I'm not entirely sure about the specifics, but I believe that to perform this transformation for the first time, the prerequisite is to turn into a Golden Great Ape..."
Vegeta, who was standing nearby, interrupted: "Saiyans without tails who want to turn into Great Apes might be able to achieve it by intensifying Blutz Waves."
"Then how do I intensify these... Popo rays you're talking about?" Son Goku asked, confused.
Vegeta glared angrily at Son Goku: "I don't know!!!"
Son Goku:...
First of all, I didn't provoke you, Vegeta.
Trunks, standing nearby, was full of envy: "I want to try this transformation in the future too; it's so cool."
Gohan laughed: "Yeah, once you train your base combat power to be stronger, reaching the level of Super Saiyan 3, you should be able to achieve this transformation."
Trunks' eyes were full of longing.
Anticipating...
The Supreme Kai patted his chest and let out a sigh of relief, "Phew, that scared me to death just now. It's a good thing Gohan defeated Cooler, otherwise, I feel like he would have killed me."
"Frieza's brother, his strength is truly bottomless."
"Exactly, exactly."
"Hahaha..."
Everyone let out hearty laughter, and the surrounding air was filled with cheer.
This was the relief of dropping a heavy stone from their hearts, and the joy of surviving a disaster.
Afterwards, Gohan had to go to the Other World.
Everyone dispersed to collect the dragon balls and restore the damage caused by this battle.
...
Meanwhile, in a distant, supreme plane.
The Divine Realm, God of Destruction Planet.
The God of Destruction Planet is an inverted triangular planet.
Growing on it is a massive, withered tree that sprawls across more than half the planet. This strange tree is leafless year-round, and it is said that one cycle of withering and flourishing lasts tens of thousands of years.
No one knows if it will ever bear fruit.
There is no distinction between day and night here; the sky is brilliantly colored, and it is always daylight.
And the master living on this planet is naturally the God of Destruction of Universe 7, Beerus.
The dull life repeats day after day, year after year.
There are no traces of time on a god.
Time is the thing they have in greatest abundance.
The bored God of Destruction Beerus wants to sleep whenever he has free time, sometimes sleeping for thousands upon thousands of years.
Gourmet food and sweet dreams are his eternal pursuits.
At this very moment, Beerus rolled over in bed and then fell to the floor with a "thump."
He opened his hazy, sleepy eyes, yawning continuously.
Beerus rubbed his sleepy eyes, stretched, tightened his bathrobe, and walked out of the bedroom into the living room, listless.
He kept an Oracle Fish in his living room, which could foresee some future events; it was very magical.
Beerus casually flicked the Oracle Fish on the head.
The Oracle Fish clutched its head, aggrieved, whimpering, daring to be angry but not daring to speak out.
Beerus yawned, walked to the window out of sheer boredom, opened it, and looked at the scenery outside.
"Whis, Whis!"
He shouted at the top of his lungs twice.
A tall figure appeared out of thin air with a swoosh.
It was none other than Whis, the Angel of Universe 7.
Whis held an exquisite staff in his hand; at the top of the staff was a vertical halo, with a black magic orb the size of a dragon ball embedded in the center.
He had a very tall figure, handsome features, light blue skin, a large, light blue angel halo around his neck, and long, silver-white hair that defied gravity and shot straight up.
It could be seen that his gender was likely male, with the rest unknown.
Whis's smile was very bright, humble, and gentle; when he smiled, it was like sunlight blooming in the middle of winter, making those facing him feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.
Whis smiled respectfully at Beerus: "Lord Beerus, what is it?"
Beerus appeared a bit irritable, his face full of unhappiness: "Damn it, I just had a nightmare that scared me awake."
"Oh? Lord Beerus, what kind of dream did you have?"
"Hmm, well..." Beerus raised his hand to rub his chin, struggling to recall, "I seem to have dreamed that someone killed me, and my life was under serious threat..."
Whis covered his mouth and chuckled: "Ho ho ho, how could anyone possibly be able to kill Lord Beerus? A dream is, after all, just a dream."
"But I've heard that dreams are also a kind of prophecy, right? Oracle Fish?" Beerus turned his head to look at the Oracle Fish swimming in the fish tank.
Huh? Does this involve me?
The Oracle Fish poked its head out and then nodded.
"You see, Whis, the Oracle Fish thinks so too. So, Whis, how long have I been asleep this time?" Beerus yawned again.
Whis smiled: "Lord Beerus, this sleep lasted less than 50 years."
"Ah, that's terrible; my sleep quality has indeed gotten worse." Beerus propped his chin on his hands, very troubled.
"Hehe..." Whis lightly covered his lips.
"Then, has Planet Vegeta been destroyed?" Beerus asked next.
"Yes, it was destroyed by Frieza."
"This Frieza is somewhat efficient in his work. So, how is he now?"
Whis said: "Frieza has been killed by someone, a Super Saiyan named Son Goku."
"Huh?" Beerus widened his eyes, looking incredulous: "A Saiyan was actually able to kill Frieza? You're not joking with me, are you, Whis?"
Whis shook his head: "Of course not, Lord Beerus. It's because this Son Goku transformed into the legendary Super Saiyan and defeated Frieza."
"The legendary Super Saiyan? Is he very strong?" Beerus asked.
