Under the relentless baptism of destruction energy, Gohan was also nearing the end of his strength. His Beast form flickered in and out of existence, constantly switching between that state and his normal form.
Trunks immediately flew to Gohan's front.
"Hang on, Brother Gohan!"
Gohan clenched his teeth and shouted, "Trunks!! Go… now!!"
"This guy is too strong! We're not his match!! Take Dad and the others and get out of here!!"
Gohan's voice trembled without stop, his body already completely exhausted. Sure enough, no matter how many years had passed, Gohan was still the same big brother who cared deeply for Trunks.
This time, the destruction energy Beerus was using was the strongest he had ever unleashed.
Even Gohan in his Beast state could not withstand it.
How could Trunks possibly run away?
He released all of his divine aura, forming a protective barrier around Gohan. Yet even that barrier could not last more than a few seconds before the destruction energy.
Fortunately, within those brief seconds… Trunks had already placed a Potara earring onto Gohan's right ear.
Gohan felt an itch on his right ear and suddenly turned his head. He immediately noticed that Trunks had also put the other Potara on his own left ear.
Gohan stared at Trunks in shock, his face filled with disbelief.
At that moment, Trunks smiled at Gohan.
"Brother Gohan… then let's bear it together."
As the words fell, a mysterious flower bloomed within the World of Void. The bond between the two brothers Merged into one at that very instant.
The Light faded, and an entirely new super warrior appeared within the World of Void. The pair of Potara earrings swayed beside his ears, a faint glow shimmering across their surface.
As the veil of Light receded, the mysterious man was revealed—his eyes carrying Trunks's calm and Gohan's fury.
Gogeta's successor, Truhan, was born!
In an instant, a golden aura ignited around Truhan's body.
Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan 2, Super Saiyan God, Super Saiyan 4… completed in one seamless flow.
At last, divine energy attached itself to the exterior of Super Saiyan 4. Boundary Breakthrough state achieved!
At that moment, the hands Truhan was using to brace against the massive pillar of destruction energy erupted with a Power so great that even he himself was stunned by it.
"Ultimate Kamehameha!!!"
Accompanied by a ferocious roar, the colossal pillar of destruction energy finally began to move in the opposite direction.
He broke free of its restraint.
Yet he did not rush to challenge Beerus immediately.
He was extraordinarily calm.
In the very first moment, he arrived in front of Kaiōshin Shin. Looking at the Potara swaying from Truhan's ears, Kaiōshin Shin stood utterly dumbfounded.
As expected… Potara truly were most suitable when used on Saiyans.
Without saying a word, Truhan hoisted up the barely breathing Goku and Vegeta as well.
"Hold on to me, Lord Kaiōshin."
Truhan's dual-layered voice was domineering and deep, snapping Kaiōshin Shin back to his senses. He quickly placed his hand on Truhan's body.
In the very next second…
Truhan placed his hand against his forehead.
Whoosh…!
Instant Transmission actually activated!
Kaiōshin Shin was utterly shocked. With just a blink of an eye, he had arrived once again in the Kaiō God Realm.
Th-this… how was this even possible?!
Kaiōshin Shin clearly remembered that earlier, it had taken them a long time to finally Perceive Gogeta's aura before they could Instant Transmission into the World of Void.
So how had they now returned from the World of Void in an instant?! At this very moment, Truhan's location was right beside Majin Buu.
There was only one truth. It turned out that Truhan had Perceived Majin Buu's aura and used Instant Transmission based on that. At this time, Majin Buu, Kibito, and the Elder Kaiōshin all wore expressions of utter astonishment.
The person before them felt both familiar and unfamiliar, but the moment they saw the Potara earrings swaying from Truhan's ears, they immediately understood.
"Potara… Mr. Gohan and Trunks fused?!" Kibito asked Truhan.
"How did you get out of the World of Void?! It was clearly so troublesome just to get in there earlier!" Kibito's mouth hung open like an egg.
While gently placing Goku and Vegeta onto the ground, Truhan explained, "After the fusion, my Perception Ability became stronger. Also, thank you for the Potara, Lord Kaiōshin."
"And Kibito-sama, please hurry and heal my father and the others! I'm begging you!"
Immediately afterward, Truhan turned his back, closed his eyes, and began searching for the powerful aura left behind by the Ultimate Kamehameha he had just released. Influenced by the furious aura inherited from Gohan within him, Truhan resolutely decided to return to the World of Void and fight Beerus to the very end.
His figure began to flicker, and in the next instant, he vanished from the Kaiō God Realm.
Watching Truhan's departing silhouette, hope ignited once more in Kaiōshin Shin's eyes.
Kibito's gaze also burned with determination.
Only the Elder Kaiōshin wore a troubled expression as he sighed, "It's no use… Lord Beerus is extremely powerful."
The usually calm and steady Elder Kaiōshin was unexpectedly pouring cold water at this moment.
This immediately made the two younger Kaiō feel a wave of discouragement.
Kaiōshin Shin said, "Ancestor, we must believe in Trunks and Mr. Gohan. I can feel it… they seem even stronger than Gogeta San."
The Elder Kaiōshin's lips curled upward slightly as he replied, "Of course. I already told you, our Potara are stronger than ordinary Merging."
But in the very next second, his face drooped again. "However… Lord Beerus is truly powerful."
Memories from many years ago resurfaced in his mind. Beerus had sealed the Elder Kaiōshin away to prevent enemies from discovering the God of Destruction's weakness.
Fortunately, Beerus ultimately defeated that enemy. Exhausted after the battle, he fell into a deep sleep. Beerus then forgot to release the Elder Kaiōshin from the Kaiōshin Sword, resulting in his long-term imprisonment.
It was also that battle which caused the name of the God of Destruction, Beerus, to resound throughout the entire God Realm.
Just as the Elder Kaiōshin was lost in reminiscence…
Kibito began to complain, "Hey! I say, Ancestor, why are you boosting the enemy's morale while crushing our own?!"
"You're not usually like this!!"
The Elder Kaiōshin narrowed one eye, glanced at Kibito, and scolded, "You brat! Instead of worrying about that, shouldn't you first go heal the two people lying on the ground?!"
"Hmph! I was just feeling sentimental, that's all. I'm actually on your side too! If you need my help, I'll step in!"
The Elder Kaiōshin muttered under his breath, "Honestly… I don't like Beerus either…"
Hearing this, both Kibito and Kaiōshin Shin broke into smiles. Kibito hurried over to begin healing Goku and Vegeta. However, after Kibito finished his treatment, something strange happened.
Goku and Vegeta showed no signs of improvement.
At that moment, Majin Buu shifted slightly, wearing a thoughtful expression as his face once again transformed into that of the Grand Kaiō.
"Let me do it."
