Raditz defeated both top fighters with ease, requiring only single moves against each.
The tremendous power of Super Saiyan God immediately commanded reverence—this was what true divinity meant! Piccolo had no idea what they were attempting until Nappa explained the transformation, shocking him once again.
He'd never imagined that godhood could be artificially achieved.
Indeed, no one had considered this possibility. Without ancient Saiyans creating this precedent, who would have conceived that mortals could enter the divine realm?
"The gap is enormous. I thought I could last at least two exchanges..." Goku rubbed his neck while slowly rising, smiling helplessly.
Vegeta remained silent, still staring at Raditz floating overhead, biting his lip tensely.
Only those who'd personally fought the Super Saiyan God understood what terrifying power this represented—strength that left opponents completely helpless, ready for slaughter.
Both warriors exchanged glances, sweat dripping simultaneously.
At that moment, Raditz closed his eyes with intense concentration, as if isolating himself from the external world while his consciousness explored inward. He had to seize this divine opportunity, studying and absorbing this transcendent level.
His training had been sufficient—especially after Whis's departure, he'd visited the Hyperbolic Time Chamber repeatedly, each session bringing new understanding of spirit and realm. Now came the time to absorb true godhood!
Supreme energy and dimensional power seemed to coil within his heart. He could claim it with a single breath, yet something remained just beyond reach.
"Battle!" Raditz suddenly recalled how Goku had gradually comprehended the divine realm during his climactic fight with Beerus. His own conditions were ready—he simply needed fierce combat to stimulate his instincts.
"Goku, Vegeta, everyone—let's all become gods."
"Any Saiyan with justice in their heart can succeed. However, individual Super Saiyan Gods vary in strength based on original power levels. To grow stronger, you must continue training on this foundation."
"Absolutely!" Tarble exclaimed with joy.
And so, with assistance from the others, Nappa, Pepara, Zucara, Tarble, Goku, and Vegeta all achieved Super Saiyan God transformations! Broly's unstable mentality naturally excluded him from participation, while Rukon and the other children were still too young for consideration.
Throughout the temple, clusters of sacred aura filled the air. Colorful clouds and crimson flames alternated brilliantly, making Piccolo's heart race as his expression shifted repeatedly. Both Mr. Popo and Kami trembled involuntarily, while Dende and Cargo—as deities themselves—genuinely sensed divine essence emanating from the Saiyans!
"I'm incredible too! Haha!" Pepara practically glowed with excitement, her red hair flowing as pure joy illuminated her features.
Goku and Vegeta smiled as well, sensing the unusual power and feeling divine breath surging within their chests—the unique aura of gods!
"Now that everyone has achieved godhood, attack me together," Raditz declared with a smile.
Everyone stood stunned.
"Master, you mean we should gang up on you?"
"Exactly. I want to try handling all of you simultaneously."
Vegeta laughed immediately. "Don't get overconfident! We're all Super Saiyan Gods now—same realm, narrowed gap!"
He was correct. While significant differences existed between Super Saiyan 2 and 3, the strength variance among fellow gods was obviously smaller. Though they were artificially created deities, their dimensional levels were similar.
"Brother, this reminds me of training on King Kai's planet. You won't win so easily this time," Goku grinned as well.
Raditz's victory against multiple opponents on King Kai's world remained unforgettable—the memory still vivid after all these years.
But with Raditz now facing superior numbers, even Piccolo watching from the sidelines found it hard to believe.
One Super Saiyan God differed from another, but surely the gap couldn't be that vast?
Rather than offer explanations, Raditz moved directly toward Goku. "Here I come!" he shouted, his form shifting with phantom-like flames that dazzled beautifully.
Every divine movement possessed grace—destroying enemies through beauty itself.
This time Goku could follow Raditz's approach, dodging flexibly. His reaction speed had increased several times over, allowing instant counterattacks. Divine flames floated like waves, flowing with their momentum.
BOOM!
For the first time, Raditz made solid contact with Goku's form. Tremendous power spread around both fighters in mighty layers, encompassing the entire world.
After a brief pause, Goku stepped back with a grin. "As expected—still not quite matching my brother's strength!"
"Raditz, my turn!" Vegeta charged forward.
"Master, forgive me!" Tarble immediately launched his own assault.
Nappa, Zucara and Pepara decided to join the attack. Since Raditz wanted to fight multiple opponents, he must have his reasons. They'd use this opportunity to experience Super Saiyan God power firsthand.
"Hah! Bring it on!"
Sacred energy gathered overhead as ethereal, tremendous aura immediately elevated the temple into higher, more expansive realms—as if entering an ancient sanctuary.
At the God of Destruction's palace...
Whis's staff suddenly reacted, flashing with light.
The strolling angel paused momentarily, frowning. Such reactions hadn't occurred for ages—was something happening in the universe? He gazed curiously toward the lower realm through his scepter, momentarily startled by the scene before him.
The image showed Earth, where Raditz fought in magnificent form. Glowing crimson flames covered him, red hair and pupils radiating divine aura. Undoubtedly, this was the realm of gods!
"Oh my, this is divine energy! Did Raditz succeed? No—there are others..."
He observed not only Raditz but additional red-haired Saiyans, including Raditz younger brother Goku and Prince Vegeta.
Whis's eyes narrowed as he smiled broadly, glancing toward where Beerus rested before whispering to himself: "Lord Beerus is still sleeping, so I'll visit the lower realm first. I truly didn't expect Raditz and his companions to discover this transformation so quickly. Though they remain far from Lord Beerus's level, I'm amazed that mortals could achieve this."
Smiling, Whis raised his staff and tapped the ground lightly. Instantly, prismatic light enveloped him, carrying him through space directly toward Earth.
What had captured Whis's attention was Raditz's divine realm and the miraculous phenomenon of multiple Saiyans entering this dimension. So many achieving godhood simultaneously naturally mystified even an angel.
But Raditz and his companions sparring on Earth remained unaware that a heavyweight was about to arrive.
