Cultivation Breakthrough

"Hey! I didn't expect everyone to be in such rough shape. It seems the opponents this time are truly formidable," Vados said calmly, her gaze falling on the badly injured GT Goku and GT Vegeta.

She knew the strength of Goku and Vegeta well. In her timeline, their current power level would make them prime candidates for the role of God of Destruction. Yet even with their strength, they appeared battered and exhausted. It was a testament to just how overwhelming their enemies were.

Without Goten's intervention, it was clear that today might spell disaster for all of them.

"Vados, is Goten ready yet? How long before he can help us?" GT Goku asked urgently.

Since Vados was Goten's Angel, she had been supervising him during his secluded training. If anyone knew how far Goten had progressed, it would be her.

"I'm not sure," Vados replied with a serious tone. "Lord Goten's training could finish soon, or it might still take a long time. Either way, you shouldn't place all your hopes on him for this battle."

Vados' uncertainty left GT Goku grim, but the truth was undeniable. For the past few months, Goten had been meditating, showing no physical progress. Even when Vados asked, he never gave her a direct answer about his training.

"Damn it!" GT Vegeta growled in frustration. "That Goten! Why hasn't he shown up yet? The earth is on the brink of destruction, and if this fight keeps going, we'll all be dead! Is he just going to sit back and watch while we get wiped out?"

GT Vegeta's anger was justified. Their enemies were absurdly powerful, far beyond what they could handle. Even after fusing into Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta, they had barely managed to defeat one opponent—and that effort had drained them completely.

The most dangerous foe, Z Broly, was still standing, and his power seemed even greater than before. GT Vegeta doubted they could defeat Z Broly, even with another Fusion—assuming they were given the chance to fuse at all. Now, both he and GT Goku were gravely injured and running out of options.

"You two don't need to be so desperate," Vados said calmly. "That was just my guess. For now, let me heal your injuries."

As her words fell, Vados lightly waved her staff. In an instant, a green energy enveloped GT Goku and GT Vegeta, sinking into their bodies. The healing energy mended their wounds and restored their stamina to its peak.

"What? You can do that?" GT Vegeta exclaimed in surprise.

Feeling his strength fully return and his injuries vanish, GT Vegeta stared at Vados in disbelief. He had never seen her abilities in action before, and now, it was clear that this Angel was far more than a "pretty vase," as he had once thought.

Even the combined efforts of Dende and Kibito Kai couldn't heal the overwhelming energy strain of Super Saiyan 4. Yet Vados had fully restored him and GT Goku with a simple wave of her staff. It was a humbling realization for GT Vegeta.

"This is incredible, Vegeta!" GT Goku said, his excitement clear. "We can't fuse again right now, but with our strength back at full, we can still fight!"

Both Saiyans felt their fighting spirit reignite.

Haa!

With a shout, both instantly transformed into Super Saiyan 4 once more. Without hesitation, they charged toward Broly.

Although they knew they couldn't defeat him with their current power, they were confident that the combined strength of two Super Saiyan 4s could hold him off for a while. Now, the outcome of the battle rested on when Goten would emerge.

They understood all too well: the key to victory wasn't them—it was Goten.

After healing GT Goku and GT Vegeta, Vados turned her attention to Marcus. Of all the fighters, Marcus exuded a menacing aura unlike any other. It was a demonic energy so vile that only the most sinister entities could possess it.

This aura set Marcus apart from the others. It was clear to Vados that he was the mastermind behind this chaos. As for his ultimate goal, she could only speculate.

...…

Meanwhile, inside a secluded training room at the villa, Goten remained seated cross-legged, surrounded by a brilliant aura. His eyes were shut tightly, and his focus was unshaken, as if the chaos unfolding on Earth had no connection to him.

In his meditative state, Goten felt an unparalleled calmness. Nothing in the world could disturb his focus.

The aura around him grew brighter and more intense. Divine energy began to radiate from his body, growing stronger with every passing moment.

Suddenly, Goten's eyes snapped open. His pupils had vanished, replaced by eyes that seemed to contain the stars of the entire universe.

"Success... Success!!!" Goten shouted, his voice trembling with excitement.

In that moment, he had achieved a breakthrough. After four months of rigorous training, Goten had perfectly fused the power of advanced destruction energy, Angelic energy, and the Legendary Saiyan's strength into one.

This combination didn't simply make him stronger or give him new techniques—it birthed a new, higher power of Laws.

Goten couldn't say for certain if this new power could rival Zeno's ability to erase. But what he did know was that this power far surpassed the Laws of Destruction. The gap between the two was a difference of dimensions.

"Let's see who these enemies are," Goten said with a smirk, standing up slowly. "I can feel a powerful, evil aura. Perhaps it'll serve as nourishment for my Laws."

With that, Goten's body vanished like a ghost.
