Out in the vastness of space, as the battle escalated in intensity, Aishi gradually came to understand Son Goku's current strength.
He realized—there was no point continuing this brawl.
With that, Aishi retreated a hundred meters, clenched his fists, calmed his aura, and slowly closed his eyes.
He took in a deep breath—
Then suddenly clenched his fists tightly and let out a deep roar from his throat:
"HAHHHHHH!!"
On the other side, Son Goku's aura became more violent the longer he fought. He was getting stronger with every second.
His fighting style was utterly reckless—purely trading blows with no concern for his own safety.
But terrifyingly, every single strike landed precisely at Aishi's vital points!
That was the truly troublesome part.
Though he had lost his rationality...
His battle instinct remained razor-sharp!
It was a pure form of combat driven by instinctual muscle memory.
Son Goku's blank eyes locked onto Aishi. His face twisted with fury, veins bulging.
Failing to bring Aishi down only made him grow more frenzied!
Goku brought his hands together, slowly gathering a crimson-gold energy wave.
The powerful energy pulsed outwards like ripples across space.
"Haah!"
With a furious shout, the blast roared forward, instantly spanning over a hundred meters in diameter. It hurtled toward Aishi with devastating force!
Just as the energy wave was about to strike him—
Aishi vanished.
The wave shot off into the distant cosmos.
Aishi reappeared—right in front of Goku.
Fist clenched, his body wrapped in golden aura, he struck Goku's face with a devastating punch!
Goku hadn't even reacted yet—
————BOOM!!!
That punch was terrifying.
The resulting explosion shattered all soundless boundaries—space itself trembled!
Goku's body twisted midair, his face contorted—
He shot forward like a flaming meteor, streaking across the stars!
Aishi silently judged,
"Roughly equivalent to my Super Saiyan 4 strength."
Not bad—
But Goku, right now, was beyond that.
Without wasting time, Aishi vanished again and appeared directly in Goku's path.
He locked his hands together—
And slammed down a hammer blow onto Goku's spine!
BOOM!!!
The explosion was planet-shattering in power.
Goku's pupils shrank as his expression finally shifted—
His rage dimmed momentarily.
But the next instant, he was blasted even farther!
Aishi followed up without pause.
After a relentless combo, Aishi launched Goku high into the air.
Then placed his hands at his waist, forming the iconic flower-bud shape—
He shouted low:
"Kamehameha!!!"
In that moment, a dazzling red light burst forth.
A massive energy wave, over ten meters thick, tore through space and struck Goku head-on!
————BOOOOOOM!!!
When the deafening explosion finally faded—
A figure slowly descended from space.
It was Son Goku.
He had returned to his base form, appearing as the small-framed boy from his youth.
His eyes were closed.
His body was covered in wounds—clothes torn to shreds, his energy gone.
Seeing this, Aishi's aura dimmed, and he reverted to his normal form.
He gently flew over and caught Goku in his arms.
He couldn't help but sigh—
"He's truly something else…"
There were so many questions he wanted to ask—
Especially about that terrifying transformation earlier.
Aishi glanced down at Goku—
And then, his face suddenly changed.
Goku's body was cold.
There wasn't a single trace of energy flowing through him.
Aishi frowned.
"…Dead?"
No way…
Just moments ago, he was overflowing with power!
And Aishi hadn't even used killing intent in his attacks!
Without delay, he vanished.
Sacred World of the Kais.
The Old Supreme Kai and the others were still in shock, when suddenly—
A figure appeared before them.
It was Aishi.
He gently laid Goku's body on the ground.
Shin, the Supreme Kai, took a step back in surprise.
"Y-You are…?"
Aishi frowned. "Enough talk—Son Goku is dead."
What?!
All three were stunned.
Dead?
Impossible!
They rushed forward.
The Old Supreme Kai crouched and carefully examined Goku.
His expression turned grim.
"…He really is… dead."
"AH?!"
Both Shin and Kibito were in disbelief—
While they weren't extremely close to Goku, they still cared for him!
Seeing a friend like this made their hearts ache.
Aishi said firmly, "Move aside."
Kibito asked urgently, "What are you going to do?"
Aishi replied, "I'm going to save him."
"WHAT?!"
All three were stunned again.
The Old Supreme Kai asked sternly, "How do you plan to do that?"
After all, Namek had been destroyed during the battle.
Without Dragon Balls, resurrection was impossible!
Aishi didn't answer—
He simply raised his hand.
Golden light surged forth.
Time Scroll.
This time, Aishi rewound the entire universe's timeline—
Including Earth and its inhabitants…
And Son Goku's death.
In just an instant—
The destroyed planets and wiped-out lifeforms… were all restored!
As deities, both the Old Supreme Kai and Shin instantly sensed the change.
Joy filled their faces as they turned toward the still body of Son Goku—
But suddenly—
The light that had been enveloping him dimmed slightly.
"…Huh?!"
Aishi's expression twitched.
What did that mean?
On the ground, Goku's body flared with white light—
And began to fade…
Shin panicked. "What's going on?!"
The Old Kai's face also changed.
He had never seen this before.
Aishi didn't panic—
Instead, he poured more divine power into the scroll.
But just as Goku's body began to stabilize…
It started to fade again!
At that moment—
Everyone present understood.
Someone was trying to take him away!
The Old Kai's face darkened.
"Who's trying to steal him?!"
Shin looked at Aishi, voice filled with urgency,
"Sir, please—we're counting on you!!"
Aishi didn't reply.
He simply sneered.
"Trying to take him from me?"
————————
In the next breath—
A dazzling white light enveloped Aishi's body!
When it faded—
He was covered in shimmering silver fur, his silver hair flowing wildly behind him.
He had ascended directly from base form to Super Saiyan 5.
The three Kais were speechless.
Impossible…!
Before they could even speak again—
A white flame burst out around Aishi's body—
Migatte no Gokui!! (Ultra Instinct!!)
————————BOOOOOOM!!!
His power surged like a rocket—
A qualitative transformation in a single instant!
Super Saiyan 5 + Ultra Instinct.
Aishi's energy was bottomless.
It felt like a bottomless abyss…
Even though he was suppressing his ki,
the sheer force of the transformation shattered the protective barriers of the universe,
reverberating outward into the cosmos.
The three Kais collapsed under the overwhelming pressure, trembling in terror.
What… is this…?!
Too terrifying!
The Old Supreme Kai's expression was heavier than ever—
This was the most terrifying being he had ever seen.
And yet, what confused him even more was—
WHO exactly was this man?!
It was Aishi's first time using this form.
He wasn't used to it yet…
This kind of strength, where just clenching a fist could rip space-time apart… was intoxicating.
He took a deep breath and unleashed a torrent of divine power into the Time Scroll.
In an instant—
The scroll glowed brighter than the sun.
Goku's previously dim and transparent body…
Became solid again.
His heart started beating.
His aura stabilized.
And that mysterious force that had been trying to take him—
disappeared.
It feared Aishi's power and dared not interfere again.
Seeing this, the Old Kai beamed.
They'd won!
But just then—
The sky began to swirl.
A massive green dragon, stretching thousands of meters long, swept across the heavens—
Shenron!
Everyone was stunned by the sight.
Aishi narrowed his eyes, a suspicion rising in his mind—
"Wait… was Shenron trying to steal Goku's soul earlier?"
Shenron hovered above the group, his glowing crimson eyes meeting Aishi's.
He spoke—his voice filled with reverence:
"Greetings, Lord God of Destruction of Time…"
His tone was respectful—genuinely admiring.
But his demeanor remained calm and poised.
Neither submissive nor arrogant.
Aishi was slightly surprised.
He stared at Shenron.
This one felt different.
The Shenrons he remembered were… kind of weak.
Always afraid of figures like Piccolo.
Terrified in front of Gods of Destruction.
But this one…
Showed no fear in front of him.
Only calm, steady respect.
