"With my and Vegeta's ability to transform into Super Saiyan God or Super Saiyan Blue, we should be able to easily take care of the Dark Man."
Son Goku already had an accurate understanding of the Dark Man's strength, so he wasn't worried about the future timeline.
He didn't even consider the Dark Man an opponent at all.
"Is that so? If you think that way, then you're dead wrong, Kakarot. That guy's current strength, even if you two team up, you might not be his match," Talot unceremoniously poured cold water on them.
These words shocked everyone.
Was the Dark Man really that strong? Even Son Goku and Vegeta in Super Saiyan Blue form weren't his opponents? "Me and Kakarot teaming up aren't a match for that guy? What a joke?! He's not you!" Vegeta's eyes widened, clearly finding it hard to accept this harsh reality.
"Really? I fought him, and even if he was hiding something, it shouldn't be that much more than me and Vegeta, right?! Does he have some special tricks?" Son Goku asked suspiciously, hearing Talot's high evaluation of the Dark Man.
Was this imposter so strong? Even more powerful than the original? At that moment, even Beerus and Whis cast doubtful glances at Talot, hoping he could give them a clear explanation.
After all, the Dark Man had fought Son Goku, and they had seen it. That guy's strength was just so-so.
Without exaggeration, either Son Goku or Vegeta didn't even need to transform into Super Saiyan Blue to beat the Dark Man to a pulp.
"I've seen it in the Time-Space Corridor and sensed the depth of his power. That guy called Dark Man didn't fully unleash the power of that body before fighting Kakarot, but after fighting Kakarot, he learned Kakarot's fighting methods and awakened the power within his body. So, combined with his special nature, the power he can now unleash is only stronger than your Super Saiyan Blue," Talot explained to everyone.
This was a warning Talot was giving the two.
As for how they would respond, that was up to them.
He had no interest in the Dark Man or anything like that.
"I see… If that's the reason, then it's really possible." Vegeta understood the reason and didn't refute what Talot said.
After all, according to Talot, the body was Kakarot's, so there were indeed infinite possibilities.
But then, an arrogant smile appeared on Vegeta's face.
So what if the Dark Man mastered all the power of Kakarot's body?
This time was different. After fighting Talot, he also had new insights. As long as he absorbed all these new insights, his strength could be greatly improved.
"In that case, me and Vegeta need to improve our strength even further." Son Goku fell into deep thought. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he thought of a good idea. "Hey, is it okay if I call you Talot? Besides mastering the Super Saiyan Fourth Grade transformation, you've also mastered transformations beyond Super Saiyan Blue, right? Before me and Vegeta set off to deal with the Dark Man, could you please show us the transformation beyond Super Saiyan Blue?! Please!"
Son Goku's sudden request surprised everyone present.
Even Talot didn't expect Son Goku to make such a direct request.
Vegeta also perked up.
They hadn't witnessed Talot's transformation to the realm beyond Super Saiyan Blue with their own eyes, but judging from the God Power released during the battle with Beerus, Talot definitely knew it!
"Sure, no problem at all. I thought you'd be more interested in Super Saiyan Fourth Grade." Talot didn't refuse, just taking it as helping these two guys out.
After all, they were the original Son Bei.
Hearing Talot's words, Son Goku and Vegeta concentrated, focusing all their attention on Talot.
Future Trunks, Piccolo, Krillin, Son Gohan, and others also focused their gazes on Talot.
They were also very curious about the form beyond Super Saiyan Blue.
'Whoosh~~!!!!!!'
Under everyone's gaze, a deep azure flame ignited around Talot's body.
His black hair shot up, turning into blue, upright hair.
The profound God Power expanded, and its majestic and terrifying God's Pressure made Son Goku and Vegeta swallow hard.
The current Talot had already reached the Ninth Dimension level in his Base Form, and his transformed Super Saiyan Blue was definitely at the Tenth Dimension level.
Even though Talot restrained most of his God Power, this God's Pressure was far beyond what Son Goku and Vegeta could imagine.
It surpassed them by far too much.
Krillin, Piccolo, Son Gohan, and Future Trunks were also frightened by the pressure permeating the space.
Although they couldn't sense God Power, this sense of oppression made their bodies and souls tremble uncontrollably.
Even just watching from a close distance made them feel a deep sense of awe.
Then, under everyone's gaze, Talot retracted all his God Power into his body, sealing all of it, in order to unleash the full power of Super Saiyan Blue to its fullest extent.
"This is, Super Saiyan Blue Full Power!"
"This... this is!!" Vegeta, witnessing this scene, immediately understood.
"To seal all of the Super Saiyan Blue's God Power within the body without leaking it, thereby unleashing the full power of Super Saiyan Blue?! I see!!" Son Goku said with a look of astonishment.
At this moment, he also understood how much they were lacking.
They hadn't even mastered Super Saiyan Blue to its peak, let alone transformations beyond that; they still had a long way to go.
"This is the Super Saiyan Blue Full Power state. In reality, it's just like the Super Saiyan First Stage Full Power, a realm you must both master next. And after that..." Talot's eyes narrowed, a deep blue divine light flickering in his pupils. In an instant, an even more terrifying God Power erupted from his body.
Under everyone's gaze, Talot's transformed state changed once again.
While his muscles expanded all over, his azure blue hair, soaring upwards, transformed into deep blue hair, raging upwards. God Power underwent another qualitative change, and his Battle Power increased explosively.
The appearance of this form left Son Goku and Vegeta speechless with shock.
Was this the form beyond Super Saiyan Blue?
The sheer intensity of the God Power alone made them unable to muster even the slightest thought of resistance.
Compared to the Super Saiyan Blue form, it was not just a little bit stronger.
"This form transcends Super Saiyan Blue; I call it Super Saiyan Deep Blue!" Talot introduced to the two.
Son Goku and Vegeta firmly etched the appearance of this form into their minds.
This was the path they would walk from now on!
"Then, regarding what comes next..." Talot clenched his fists tightly. His actions made Son Goku and Vegeta's hearts tremble, already guessing what was coming.
Beyond Super Saiyan Deep Blue, there was an even higher transformation?!
"Haaah~~!!" Talot roared, the God Power Energy Pool within his body activated once more. A vast God's Pressure enveloped the globe, even the sky was stained deep blue.
Divine music echoed in the void, proclaiming the descent of an unparalleled god into the world.
Bathed in the deep blue divine light, Talot completed his final transformation.
Deep blue hair reached his waist, his expression as cold as ice, that powerful, heaven-defying God Power covered the entire world.
This God's Pressure caused everyone who witnessed the entire transformation process at close range to swallow hard in terror.
This God Power could even crush their souls! Son Goku, Vegeta, and Future Trunks were too shocked to speak.
No wonder Talot was so powerful; it turned out he had cultivated Super Saiyan God to such a realm?!
They... were too far apart!
"As you can see, this is the Super Saiyan that transcends Super Saiyan Deep Blue Zenith! I call it Super Saiyan Blue Third Stage!" Having achieved his demonstration goal, Talot explained to the two before dispelling the Super Saiyan Blue Third Stage transformation, letting out a long breath.
Although his injuries and origin had been restored, his spirit still needed time to recover to its peak.
Having personally witnessed the state of Super Saiyan God cultivated to its peak, Son Goku and Vegeta tried their best to calm their restless hearts. The two exchanged glances, understanding each other tacitly.
They had made a decision in their hearts.
"Thank you, but could you please tell me the method for transforming into Super Saiyan Fourth Grade?" Vegeta thanked Talot before making another request.
As the Saiyan Prince, he had a kind of obsession with Super Saiyan Fourth Grade.
This transformation was a symbol of their Saiyan race's Bloodline Power, and as the Saiyan Prince, he was determined to achieve it! Talot saw through Vegeta's little thoughts, so he didn't intend to hide anything, saying, "Telling you is no problem. Super Saiyan Fourth Grade is also known as Super Saiyan Great Ape. It is a humanoid ape state achieved by our Saiyan race after transforming into a Great Ape during a full moon, then further evolving into a Golden Great Ape. That's the method of transformation. However, you who have lost your Tails should no longer have the opportunity to transform into Super Saiyan Fourth Grade, unless you grow your Tails back."
Talot explained the transformation method for Super Saiyan Fourth Grade to the two.
Upon learning that they couldn't transform into Super Saiyan Fourth Grade, Son Goku and Vegeta were both stunned. They never expected that they had made such a big mistake.
They had gotten rid of their Tails many years ago, and even their sons' Tails had been removed.
At the time of abandoning their Tails, they thought the Tails were a burden, and it seemed that their strength increased faster in the short term, but now it seemed that this was not the case.
The Tail was not only not a burden, but also the key for them, the Saiyans, to unlock their own Bloodline Power.
They had made an irreversible mistake!
"Damn it!! I shouldn't have abandoned my Tail back then!!" Vegeta recalled when he first invaded Earth, he transformed into a Great Ape and toyed with Son Goku. Then, a fatso popped out of nowhere and cut off his Tail with one strike.
Since then, he had mistakenly thought that the Tail was a burden and abandoned it.
Looking back now, he regretted it.
"It's okay, Vegeta. Even without Tails, can't we still continue to cultivate and become stronger? In my opinion, Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan Fourth Grade are similar, just two different paths." Son Goku comforted him from the side.
In his opinion, as long as one cultivates Super Saiyan Blue to its zenith, Super Saiyan Fourth Grade or anything else becomes unimportant.
"Hmph~! What do you know?!" Vegeta snorted coldly and ignored Son Goku.
Kakarot, that simpleton, how could he possibly understand what he was thinking?
What he cared about wasn't Super Saiyan Fourth Grade, but the Saiyan royal bloodline! The Angel Whis, who overheard their conversation, remained silent throughout, not saying a word.
In fact, if he wanted to, he could completely restore the tails that Son Goku and Vegeta had lost, but he had his own selfish motives.
After all, they were disciples he had trained himself. Rather than the Super Saiyan Fourth Grade that erupted from Saiyan Bloodline Power, he wanted to see his disciples cultivate God Power to its zenith.
In the end, one would bear Mastered Ultra Instinct, and the other would acknowledge Ultra Instinct...
...
And so, time passed imperceptibly.
Originally, Bulma of this world wanted Talot to stay here temporarily, so as to help Vegeta become stronger.
However, Talot refused the invitation. After exchanging a few pleasantries with this group, he bid them farewell and headed towards the horizon.
No one knew where he went.
After all, staying here would be very strange.
In his Time-Space World, and even in another Time-Space World, Bulma was his wife.
Although the original Bulma was Vegeta's wife, he couldn't stand it.
It was better to keep out of sight.
...
Because of Talot's arrival, the trajectory of this world was affected, but it was developing in a good direction.
Son Goku and Vegeta found a way to go further and began a new round of training in order to deal with the Dark Man of the future.
Bulma, with the help of the diary provided by Future Trunks, was repairing the wreckage of the Time Machine.
According to her progress, it would only take a little over a day to repair the Time Machine.
In fact, the most important thing was luck. Although the Time Machine was damaged, the energy device was not, so replicating the machine was simple.
Speaking of which, it wouldn't matter even if Bulma didn't repair the Time Machine, because not only could King Kai travel to the future, but Talot could also open a Time-Space Channel at any time.
