After sensing the divine power emitted from Son Goku and Raditz, Beerus restrained a trace of killing intent and was slightly stunned.
But very quickly, he thought of something, and his face darkened.
He was certain now—these two guys were the culprits who disturbed his sleep.
"So that's how it is!! The commotion just now was caused by you two wild gods!!" Beerus raised his hand and formed a sphere of destruction energy, directly throwing it toward the three of them.
In just an instant, Son Goku, Raditz, and Broly all felt that something was terribly wrong. With no time to dodge, they instinctively assumed defensive stances.
'BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
A terrifying explosion rang out, flames soared into the sky, and thick smoke spread everywhere.
Son Goku and Raditz, even in their Super Saiyan God forms, were blasted away by this terrifying explosion.
Broly was the same—no exception.
"My god! So this is the power of the God of Destruction of our universe, Lord Beerus?! It was just a casual attack, yet it has such destructive power!" Son Goku said in disbelief, a chill running through his entire body.
Luckily, he reacted in time to evade just now. If he had been hit head-on, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
At the very least, with his Super Saiyan God transformation, he would have been instantly killed.
"Damn it! So what if you're a God of Destruction?! We might have feared you before, but we're no longer who we used to be!"
"Perfect, I didn't enjoy that chaotic battle just now. Let me see just how strong the God of Destruction of our universe is!"
"Back then Talos could fight a God of Destruction without falling behind. Now, I can definitely do it too!"
Raditz bent his legs, gathering strength, ready to strike at any moment, his sharp gaze locking onto God of Destruction Beerus.
In an instant, power erupted. Raditz showed no restraint, exploding with energy and charging at full speed toward Beerus.
He intended to speak with strength.
"Stop! Big brother!!" Seeing this, Son Goku instinctively tried to stop Raditz, but it was already too late.
In just a moment, red-haired Super Saiyan God Raditz arrived before Beerus, unleashing a storm-like barrage of fierce punches and kicks.
To others, his attack speed was lightning-fast, but in Beerus's eyes, Raditz's speed was no different from a crawling snail.
"An insect dares to resist? Hmph! You're courting death."
Beerus snorted coldly, raising just a single index finger to effortlessly block all of Raditz's attacks.
"I don't believe it! You can't block all my attacks!" Raditz gritted his teeth as his power surged, divine energy sweeping through the surroundings as his attacks grew faster and more decisive.
'Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!…' dozens of dull impacts echoed through space.
Within just three seconds, Raditz launched dozens, even hundreds of powerful strikes at Beerus.
Unfortunately, every single one was easily blocked by Beerus's single finger.
"Damn it! If Super Saiyan God isn't enough, then Super Saiyan Blue!!!" Unable to gain any advantage, Raditz further elevated his divine power.
With a roar, his Super Saiyan God form evolved into Super Saiyan Blue Full Power.
With a ten-thousand-fold boost over his base, his power once again surged to 2000 Zhi!
And this time, after the previous battle, it had even improved slightly.
His divine power underwent a qualitative change, and a more ferocious punch was unleashed.
This time, Beerus's eyes showed a slight change.
'Boom!!!!' A tremendous explosion rang out, and space rippled under the force of the attack.
Compared to before, the destructive power had indeed increased significantly.
However, with this level of attack, it still couldn't even shake Beerus.
Raditz's destructive punch was easily caught in Beerus's palm, unable to advance even a fraction.
"What?!" Raditz was shocked as he locked eyes with Beerus.
At that moment, Beerus was terrifying beyond measure. Just a single glance nearly caused Raditz to lose his composure.
The anger of a God of Destruction—pure mental pressure alone was enough to drag any being into the abyss.
"You wild god have some skill, but that's all!" As he spoke, Beerus gathered power in his right fist and unleashed a devastating punch with extreme penetrating force.
'BANG!!!!!!!!!!!' A bone-shaking impact resounded.
Beerus's punch sank deeply into Raditz's abdomen, forcing him to bend forward.
'Pwah!' Struck heavily, Raditz's blood surged as he spat out a mouthful of blood. The next moment, overwhelming force sent his body flying uncontrollably.
"Big brother!!!" Seeing this, Son Goku rushed over without hesitation, briefly transforming into Super Saiyan Blue and appearing behind Raditz.
He tried to catch him and stop his momentum, but the force was so terrifying that it dragged him along, pushing them back hundreds of meters before they could stop.
Just as Son Goku and Raditz stabilized themselves and were about to catch their breath, Beerus casually threw another sphere of destruction energy toward them.
"Not good!!" Son Goku had no time to think and immediately gathered energy, firing a full-power Kamehameha.
But before the power of a God of Destruction, his Kamehameha was insignificant. Beerus's destruction sphere advanced forcefully, impossible to stop.
"D-damn it! Then take this—Tenfold Kaioken!" Gritting his teeth, Son Goku activated the Tenfold Kaioken.
The energy of his Kamehameha surged dramatically, finally breaking through Beerus's destruction sphere.
Empowered by the Tenfold Kaioken, the Kamehameha surged forward like a roaring dragon, continuing toward Beerus.
"Hm?! You actually broke through my destruction, you brat…" A trace of displeasure flashed in Beerus's eyes.
In his domain, they still dared to fight back.
They truly didn't take him, the God of Destruction, seriously.
In that case, only their lives could quell his anger.
Facing the Tenfold Kamehameha, Beerus remained completely unafraid, one hand behind his back while casually waving the other.
'PAH!!!!!!!!!!'
Just a seemingly effortless slap.
The immensely destructive Kamehameha was instantly scattered into countless particles of energy, drifting through space.
"How is this possible… My Tenfold Kaioken Kamehameha was dispersed so easily?!" Son Goku said in disbelief.
What he just witnessed completely overturned his understanding.
The power of a God of Destruction once again shattered his perception.
He finally understood just how terrifying a God of Destruction truly was.
And just how powerful someone like Lin Chuan, who could confront a God of Destruction head-on, must be.
He had always underestimated Lin Chuan.
"Cough… cough… damn it…!!" Beside him, Raditz struggled and finally recovered from the pain.
But the intense pain in his abdomen still made his breathing uneven.
That attack from Beerus nearly shattered his body.
If not for years of high-intensity training and constant tempering of his body with divine power, making his physique extremely tough, that punch would have pierced straight through him.
"You rest for a bit, big brother. Leave this battle to me." Son Goku stood with his back to Raditz, his expression serious, not daring to relax even slightly.
The opponent before him was the strongest God of Destruction of Universe 7—Beerus!
Completely different from any opponent he had faced before.
One mistake, and he would be erased without even a trace left behind.
Yet the more it was like this, the more excited he became. Because for a long time, he had been looking forward to fighting a God of Destruction.
Now that the opportunity was before him, how could he let it pass?
"Since it's come to this, I'll go all out! Haaah!!!!" With a shout, Son Goku went all out. Super Saiyan Blue Full Power combined with Tenfold Kaioken, his battle power surged as he charged at God of Destruction Beerus at full speed.
"Overestimating yourself." Beerus smirked disdainfully. In his eyes, Son Goku's actions were no different from seeking death.
Even if he had reached a certain level, it was still nothing.
When Son Goku was less than ten meters away, Beerus moved.
His speed was so fast it seemed to transcend time and space. In an instant, he appeared beside Son Goku, delivering a knife-hand strike toward his neck.
If this hit, Son Goku would lose all ability to fight.
"Not happening—Fifteenfold Kaioken!" Veins bulged on Son Goku's forehead as he increased the Kaioken multiplier once again.
The sudden surge of power allowed him to evade the fatal strike and launch a counterattack.
A powerful blow, carrying immense force, was unleashed.
The punch was fierce, and its power was extraordinary. Even Beerus, who wasn't being very serious, was knocked back.
Seizing the opportunity, Son Goku surged forward, chasing the retreating Beerus, unleashing a barrage of punches and kicks like a raging storm.
Faced with attacks of this level, Beerus dealt with them effortlessly.
"Interesting." A sly smile appeared on Beerus's face.
After exchanging several rounds with Son Goku, having fully grasped Son Goku's strength, he decided to stop playing.
Revealing a portion of his true power, with just a single punch he sent Son Goku tumbling head over heels, completely losing control of his body.
Even though the current Son Goku was far stronger than the original version by countless times, even touching the domain of a God of Destruction, compared to Beerus, the God of Destruction, the gap was still far too great.
The two were ultimately not on the same dimensional level.
Seizing the initiative, with a playful mood rising, Beerus began to ravage Son Goku's body at a speed beyond imagination.
In less than a few seconds, the battle suit on Son Goku's body was torn to shreds by Beerus's fierce assault, and countless bloodied wounds appeared across his strong physique.
Within those wounds, faint purple light flickered.
This was the power of destruction, eroding Son Goku's body.
"Don't underestimate me, twenty times Kaio-ken!!" Gritting his teeth, Son Goku once again increased the multiplier of the Kaio-ken, forcibly breaking free from Beerus's assault and widening the distance between them.
[Is this the power of a God of Destruction?! With my current strength, Super Saiyan Blue plus twenty times Kaio-ken, I still don't even have the chance to fight back.] Son Goku clenched his teeth, releasing his divine power to expel the remaining destructive energy within his wounds.
"Hm? You can still increase your power? You're quite something, brat." Beerus sneered playfully, and before Son Goku could react, he dashed in front of him with unparalleled speed.
Under Son Goku's horrified gaze, Beerus delivered a heavy kick straight into his chest.
Struck by the blow, Son Goku fell toward the ground like a meteor.
'Boom~~!!!!!!!!!!!!' A deafening explosion rang out.
The ground was blasted into a massive crater hundreds of meters deep and thousands of meters wide. At the center, Son Goku supported himself with both hands, his entire body trembling, blood continuously flowing from the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, his expression was extremely grim, deeply realizing the gap between himself and a God of Destruction.
Son Goku: "Huh??!!"
Suddenly, a chill swept through his entire body.
Son Goku abruptly raised his head, only to find that at some unknown time, Beerus had once again appeared right before him.
"Be… Beerus-sama…" Son Goku felt the threat of death rushing toward him. Under Beerus's invisible divine pressure, he had even lost the ability to move.
"Tch, it seems your limit is only this much."
"I've had enough fun. Now… disappear."
Beerus smiled cruelly and lightly flicked his right index finger, releasing an extremely compressed sphere of destruction energy, so small it was almost negligible.
The moment it left his control, the sphere instantly expanded, engulfing Son Goku entirely.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!" A painful and miserable scream erupted from Son Goku's mouth.
He could feel his body and soul being worn down bit by bit under the devastation of the power of destruction—this was true death.
If killed by the power of destruction, he would truly die.
Under the immense pressure of death, Son Goku endured the pain and rapidly increased the divine power within his body to resist the destruction.
Beerus yawned lazily, not even considering the possibility that Son Goku could break through this level of destruction, muttering to himself, "One down. Next, I'll destroy the other two, then go back to sleep."
After speaking, Beerus casually turned around and leisurely walked toward Raditz.
But just as he had taken about twenty steps, the sudden surge of divine power behind him caused him to pause.
"HAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!"
Engulfed by the power of destruction, Son Goku let out a hysterical roar.
His divine power continuously evolved and transformed, resisting the destructive force from within, showing signs of completely dismantling it.
"Hm? You still have hidden power?" Beerus turned around, the drowsiness gone from his face, now showing interest in Son Goku who was desperately resisting his power of destruction.
This wild god seemed to be stronger than he had expected.
"My power… is far more than this!!"
"Even if you're a God of Destruction, destroying me won't be that easy!! Beerus!!"
Amid roaring shouts, Son Goku's divine power underwent a qualitative change, his form transforming.
From Super Saiyan Blue full power, he advanced into Super Saiyan Blue Second Stage · Deep Blue Ultimate!
'Woooooommm~~~!!!'
Brilliant divine radiance burst forth as pure divine power broke free from the constraints of destruction, turning into a dazzling beam that shot toward the sky of the God of Destruction Realm.
"Oh? You can dismantle my destruction. Not bad, brat." Beerus showed an amused smile, surprised at Son Goku's sudden surge of power.
But surprise was just that—this level of power was still nothing more than an ant in his eyes.
Son Goku quickly restrained his aura, stabilizing the Deep Blue Ultimate form. Deep blue brilliance flickered in his eyes as he stared straight at Beerus.
"The real battle starts now!" Son Goku said with a serious expression, secretly gathering power, ready to strike at any moment.
"Battle? You think too highly of yourself. You've merely strengthened your divine power slightly."
"In my eyes, you are no different from an insect."
Beerus dismissed him completely.
So what if he transformed again? It was just a slight increase in divine power. A mere wild god daring to challenge a God of Destruction?
Wishful thinking!!!
Hearing this, although Son Goku felt extremely frustrated, he clearly understood how terrifying Beerus's strength was.
Even with Super Saiyan Blue Second Stage · Deep Blue Ultimate, he had no confidence in defeating Beerus.
But the more difficult it was, the more excited he became. Challenging powerful enemies and breaking through impossible limits—that was what Saiyans were!
With blazing fighting spirit in his eyes, Son Goku feared nothing. He burst forward, charging straight at Beerus.
Clenching his right fist, gathering all his divine power, he unleashed his strongest strike.
Beerus remained calm and casually threw out a punch.
'Boom!!!!!'
A storm of divine power swept in all directions, shaking the entire God of Destruction Realm.
The fierce battle between Son Goku and Beerus erupted once again.
The two moved at unimaginable speeds, clashing repeatedly across heaven and earth, with the battlefield constantly shifting.
Son Goku gave it his all, using every technique to attack Beerus.
But it was as if Beerus had eyes all over his body—no matter how tricky the angle, Son Goku couldn't land a single hit.
[How is this possible?! Have all my attack patterns been seen through?!] Unwilling to accept this, Son Goku accelerated his attacks even further, unleashing a barrage like torrential rain.
But no matter how he attacked, he couldn't harm Beerus in the slightest. Instead, his overly aggressive offense exposed fatal openings.
"I'll play with you a bit." Capable of ending it in one blow, Beerus grew slightly interested and continued to toy with Son Goku, exchanging blows with him.
...
At this moment, on the ground.
Watching the intensifying battle, Whis couldn't help but smile.
Although Beerus's awakening was somewhat abrupt…
"It seems Lord Beerus is having fun. I wonder if Goku-san can surpass his limits?" Whis said.
He did not intervene, because he knew Son Goku, Raditz, and Broly would not be killed.
Although Beerus was still angry, once he vented his frustration, everything would return to normal.
Even if Beerus still wanted to destroy them afterward, it wouldn't be too late for him to step in.
On the other side, as a spectator, Broly watched the battle.
Such an intense fight and such immense power reignited his blood, which had not yet cooled, causing his body to tremble uncontrollably.
"God of Destruction… so strong!!" Broly's fighting spirit surged as he developed a strong desire to battle Beerus.
In the previous three-way battle, he had just begun to use his true strength before it was stopped, leaving him unsatisfied.
Broly set his sights on Beerus, unaware that the newly awakened Beerus could annihilate him instantly.
In his understanding, he had yet to comprehend the terror of higher dimensions.
Just like how Lin Chuan had once crushed him—only that over time, growing stronger had made him forget that overwhelming helplessness.
Now, Broly was waiting. Waiting for Son Goku and Beerus to finish, then it would be his turn. He wanted to fight to his heart's content.
Unlike Broly's excitement and anticipation, on the other side, Raditz, who had just barely recovered, wore a grave expression.
At this point, even a fool could see what was going on.
Even though Kakarot was using Super Saiyan Blue Second Stage · Deep Blue Ultimate, in front of Beerus, he was still nothing more than a toy.
What looked like an even battle, what seemed like Kakarot constantly attacking and suppressing Beerus, was in fact Beerus holding absolute dominance.
If he wished, he could end the battle at any moment!!!
"Damn it!! How can I be afraid!!"
"Kakarot is fighting with his life on the line—how can I, his brother, fall behind?!"
"God of Destruction!! I'm not someone you can suppress so easily!! Nor will I fear you!!"
"HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
Raditz gritted his teeth, continuously drawing out the divine power within his body.
Stimulated to the extreme, once he made up his mind, his divine power erupted even more violently.
Amid hysterical roars, his form rapidly transformed—from Super Saiyan Blue continuously evolving, skipping multiple stages, until finally advancing into Super Saiyan Blue Second Stage · Deep Blue Ultimate.
Due to the evolution of his divine power, the injuries inflicted by Beerus earlier were largely healed.
Not only that, his strength also increased due to a breakthrough in his mindset.
Even if it was only a little, it gave him just a bit more confidence.
Of course, that was all—he still couldn't gain any advantage against Beerus!
So he had to become stronger—he had to unleash even greater power!!!
"At a time like this, there's no such thing as advantage in numbers! If you want us dead, I won't just stand by and let you pick us off one by one!!" With a shout, Raditz began to further amplify and condense his divine power.
He intended to raise his strength in one go, even using a blood aura burst to push himself to the limit.
He refused to believe that Beerus was truly strong enough to ignore all of their combined power.
