Beerus roared as he unleashed his purest power, trying to force that damned monkey away from him!
Loren's figure swayed slightly.
He passed straight through the raging torrent of destructive energy—completely unharmed.
Every attack missed.
"What?!" Beerus was utterly dumbfounded.
What kind of monster was this?!
On the deck, everyone stared at the projection Whis had created, mouths hanging open.
"Am… am I dreaming?"
Krillin pinched himself hard, the sharp pain proving everything he was seeing was real.
"Loren… he actually… suppressed the God of Destruction?"
"Ultra Instinct…"
Goku whispered softly, eyes locked onto Loren's every movement.
One day…
I'll reach that realm too.
No matter what!
"Bastard! Bastard! Bastard!!!" Beerus roared madly in the sky.
Purple destructive energy poured out of him without restraint, blasting wildly in all directions and shattering space itself.
Since his birth, Beerus had never been so disheveled.
Powerless.
Frustrated.
"Enough!" Beerus roared, suddenly clasping his hands together.
Buzz—
Above his head, a colossal purple energy sphere rapidly formed—pure destructive energy, like a miniature star.
This was his ultimate technique.
The God of Destruction's Rage.
A move gathering one hundred percent of his power.
He would erase this space—and that cursed Saiyan—from existence!
Facing the enormous energy ball radiating annihilation, Loren finally stopped moving.
"Is it… over?"
On the deck, everyone held their breath.
Hearts clenched tight.
"Come on, Saiyan!" Beerus roared as he hurled the massive destructive sphere downward
"Be reduced to nothingness before this Lord's full power!"
The gigantic purple "star" descended, pressing toward Loren.
In the face of this world-ending attack—
Loren finally acted.
He slowly raised his right hand.
Palm facing upward.
In the next instant—
A familiar glow appeared.
Silver-white light gathered.
A rapidly spinning silver energy sphere formed in his palm.
"That is—!" Whis's pupils contracted sharply.
"Condensing Ultra Instinct into an attack form?! He… he mastered even this without a teacher?"
Ultra Instinct was a realm, a state.
Its essence lay in automatic reaction and perfect evasion.
Forcing its energy into a destructive attack defied its very principles.
To achieve this required terrifying control—and incomprehensible comprehension.
High in the sky, Loren calmly raised the silver sphere toward the purple "star."
Silver and purple.
Under everyone's gaze, the strongest forces of Universe 7 were about to collide.
Loren moved.
He transformed into a streak of silver light—
Not retreating.
Advancing.
"He's insane!" Vegeta shouted in panic.
"He's actually charging straight at it!"
The next second—
A scene forever burned into everyone's memory unfolded.
The instant Loren's silver energy sphere touched the purple destructive star—
The massive purple sphere began to disintegrate.
At a visible speed.
"No… impossible…"
Beerus's eyes nearly burst from their sockets.
His strongest attack—gathering all his power—
Was being erased?!
Before he could even process it—
The silver light had already passed through the dissolving purple energy.
Loren was right in front of him.
It's over…
That was the only thought left in Beerus's mind.
Loren raised his hand and pressed the silver energy toward Beerus's chest.
Then—
The silver glow around Loren suddenly flickered violently.
He felt it.
His limit.
If this continued, he would collapse first.
"This is as far as I go."
Loren dispersed the silver energy instantly.
With the last of his strength—
He threw a punch.
Bang!
Beerus was struck as if by lightning, his body flying backward.
At the same time, Loren's silver aura vanished completely.
He reverted to his normal state.
"Loren!" Android 18 cried out, shooting into the sky and catching him mid-fall.
Silence returned to the heavens.
Only the torn space left behind slowly began to mend.
The battle between gods had ended.
The result…
A draw?
Everyone stared blankly, minds in chaos.
In the distance, Beerus steadied himself in midair, clutching his chest and breathing heavily.
He did not attack again.
He only stared at Loren in Android 18's arms, his expression impossibly complex.
"I… actually lost?" Beerus murmured.
Though it looked like mutual exhaustion—
Beerus knew the truth.
If Loren hadn't withdrawn that final silver energy—
He wouldn't just be injured.
He would be defeated.
Completely.
"Lord Beerus." Whis appeared silently beside him.
"It was… quite the spectacular battle."
Beerus was silent for a long moment.
Then he exhaled slowly.
His purple aura faded, and he returned to normal.
"Yes. Truly spectacular. Loren…"
Beerus nodded, engraving that name deep into his memory.
