Chapter 122 - 122
Below.
Everyone sucked in a cold breath!!!
Beerus' jaw dropped in shock.
"Super Saiyan 5… stacked with Migatte no Gokui (Ultra Instinct)?!! What kind of insane combination is that?!"
Son Goku and the others were just as shaken—this shattered their understanding completely!
Just Super Saiyan 4 combined with God Power had already blown their minds.
And now Aishi unleashed Super Saiyan 5 · Ultra Instinct?!
Absurd. Absolutely absurd!
Whis stared at Aishi, his expression unusually grave.
"There's no mistake… Aishi has already fully stepped into my level. In fact… even I can no longer see through him clearly."
Stepped into Whis' level?!
Everyone drew another sharp breath.
How strong was Whis? They all knew very well.
To surpass Whis…
Son Goku's face grew heavy.
"Whis… you're not joking, are you?"
Whis shook his head.
"No."
No joke.
The group fell silent.
They would've preferred if Whis was joking. But since he wasn't… then this was truly outrageous!
Vegito said nothing. His brow furrowed, his calm façade now breaking.
He had originally thought he could face Aishi as an equal.
But now… with things like this… that chance was slipping away.
At the side, Vados tilted her elegant head slightly. She too was shocked by Aishi's strength… but more than that, she was worried.
Because that Universe Tree… could very well endanger Aishi's life!
Vados turned to Cus.
"Big sis, can't you intervene?"
Cus shook her head.
"No."
Her gaze lifted to the sky.
"That Universe Tree is a primordial origin type of existence… it can assimilate all energies—God Power, Dark Power, Magic Power… none of it works. It devours everything."
"Everything?"
Vados pressed further.
"What about Angel Power?!"
Angel Power! The purest energy, far above all others.
But Cus shook her head again.
"Even if Angels could interfere… even then, I doubt it would work. That Universe Tree… truly can absorb all things."
Vados' beautiful brows tightened.
"So there's no way?"
Cus said calmly.
"There is."
Vados leaned in.
"What is it?"
Cus explained:
"First, gather the Super Dragon Balls and erase its energy.
Second, destroy it with a purer, higher-level force."
Vados didn't even hesitate.
"Then we need to collect the Super Dragon Balls at once!"
As for the second method… who could possibly achieve it?
Likely only someone on the Grand Priest's level.
The group exchanged uneasy glances, panic rising on their faces.
But Cus only shook her head, her eyes fixed firmly on the white figure shining in the sky.
"No need. Watch Aishi. Let's see what he will do."
Everyone froze. Since it was Cus speaking, they could only hold back their doubts.
Meanwhile—
Millions of light-years away, in a sacred palace…
The Palace of Zeno.
The Grand Priest stood at the gates, hands behind his back.
As if sensing something, the corners of his mouth curled slightly into an amused smile.
"How interesting…"
His deep eyes gazed forward as he whispered softly:
"The Demon Realm, is it? Beyond Mechikabura… not many have drawn my notice."
He chuckled faintly, then peered through countless layers of time and space. His vision landed upon a single figure—Aishi.
A faint expectation glimmered in his gaze.
Just then, a crisp, innocent voice called out:
"Daishinkan! Daishinkan!"
Zeno.
The Grand Priest's smile warmed slightly as he turned back toward the palace.
"I'm coming, Grand Zeno-sama."
Back in Universe 7.
With Aishi now transformed into Super Saiyan 5 · Ultra Instinct, his aura erupted with world-shaking change.
Energy fluctuations not of this dimension rippled outward, overlapping space and time itself.
Aishi wasted no words. His eyes locked like blades onto the Universe Tree—then his hand swept outward!
A circular, rainbow-hued sphere condensed instantly, radiating holy aura, tearing open the heavens, brimming with cleansing force as it streaked forward.
Tamashī Sabaki (Soul Arbiter)!!!
He opened with a finishing move right away!
The energy it exuded was terrifying beyond measure. All evil trembled before it!
In but a breath, the rainbow sphere struck the Universe Tree.
And then—nothing.
It was swallowed whole!
Aishi frowned slightly.
"…Absorbed?"
But in the very next moment, the Universe Tree's massive trunk flickered—its body turned transparent as if fading!
Its power dropped dramatically, its world-shaking aura weakening by several magnitudes!
Aishi exhaled.
"It works…"
He smirked.
"In that case, I won't hold back."
He knew normal attacks would just be absorbed.
But what about… Higher Destruction Power?
With a testing grin, Aishi spread his palm.
At once—
A terrifying surge of pure black energy erupted, devouring time and space itself.
The aura of absolute annihilation condensed in his hand.
Before him, the Universe Tree visibly trembled. Its form flickered, as though shivering in fear.
The Universe Tree was afraid!
The sudden emergence of Higher Destruction Power stunned everyone into silence.
Even Whis' serene composure cracked. His voice carried a weight of unprecedented gravity:
"That's… Higher Destruction Power?!"
As an Angel, he knew it well.
To manifest it, one had to first master conventional Destruction Energy completely, and then comprehend the Law of Destruction itself.
Only then could one step into Higher Destruction Power.
And yet Aishi had simply… brought it out effortlessly?!
Of course, Aishi himself didn't know any of this.
To him, it was simple: "Isn't this just how it works once you ascend?"
He chuckled, gazing at the Universe Tree.
"Let's see if you can withstand this."
And with that—
The sphere of annihilation in his hand surged forth.
Its devastating presence swept across the Universe Tree.
The Tree's colossal form trembled violently, its body flickering away as though trying to escape.
It was fleeing!
But Aishi's Higher Destruction Power reached it in an instant.
—BOOOOOOM!!!
The sky split apart.
The black aura of annihilation collided with the Tree's dark-purple energies.
The Universe Tree's absorption powers went into overdrive, while the Higher Destruction Power unleashed unmatched destruction.
Devour against obliteration.
The clash was overwhelming!
Within a heartbeat, the Tree's body began to disintegrate.
Its trunk and branches crumbled inch by inch wherever the black energy touched.
For the first time—
The Universe Tree was losing.
A wail echoed across existence, like the cry of a world itself.
Storms tore across Earth, rain lashing wildly.
Not only there—the entire cosmos trembled.
The Sacred World of the Kais.
The Old Supreme Kai staggered in shock.
"It's affecting even the Sacred Realm?!"
The Realm of the Kais was supposed to be a higher world, untouched by lower realms.
And yet, here it was, polluted by the chaos below.
His eyes turned grim as he peered into his crystal ball, whispering with hope:
"Aishi…"
On Earth.
The apocalyptic scene left everyone frozen in disbelief.
Beerus stared skyward, his face pale.
"No… if I'm not mistaken, this means… the Tree has set its roots into existence itself. But how can that be?!"
How could an external lifeform affect all twelve universes of reality?!
It made no sense!
Son Goku and the others could only gape in shock.
This was already beyond anything they could comprehend.
Whis and Vados both wore unreadable expressions, their silence deep as still water.
Even they didn't fully understand.
Why was it that destroying the Universe Tree… was making all twelve universes cry out?!
Cus' eyes flashed dangerously. She stared at the collapsing space.
"If it can affect our universe… then it must share the same standing as the twelve."
"The same… level?!"
Whis jerked his head up.
"Big sis… you're saying… its roots… are within the twelve universes themselves?!"
But he quickly shook his head.
"No… impossible. If it had taken root here, our entire Seventh Universe would have collapsed already!"
Vados, too, looked confused.
Cus' gaze hardened, her voice dropping to an icy edge.
"If it didn't take root in our twelve universes, yet it can still affect them all… then there's only one possibility…"
Her words trailed off ominously.
Whis and Vados froze.
Only one possibility?!
