The tension across the Wanjie Multiverse reached a fever pitch as the video continued. In the real world, the implications of Goku's friendship with the Omni-King were staggering. Beerus, usually arrogant, now lived in a state of constant prayer that Zeno would simply forget the Saiyan existed.
To him, this wasn't a "connection"—it was a hair-trigger on a universal bomb. Conversely, Quitela of Universe 4 watched with a malicious grin, hoping the two would become inseparable. He knew that with Goku's talent for causing trouble, it was only a matter of time before he accidentally tripped a wire that would lead to Universe 7's erasure.
The scene in the video shifted, finally offering a glimmer of hope: the Time Machine was repaired. Trunks, Goku, Vegeta, and Bulma boarded the craft and plunged into the rift, emerging in the desolate Future Timeline. As the smoke cleared, the trio stepped out into a nightmare. The once-vibrant world was a skeletal remains of steel and ash.
The sheer scale of the devastation hit them like a physical blow. Suddenly, a barrage of gunfire erupted. Survivors, gaunt and desperate, were shooting at Goku with eyes full of pure, unadulterated hatred. To them, his face was the face of the devil.
The attacks were meaningless against Goku's Ki, but the emotional weight was heavy. The survivors only lowered their weapons when Trunks stepped forward. In this hellscape, Trunks was more than a warrior; he was their solitary beacon of hope.
After he explained that this Goku was an ally from the past, the survivors led them to a cramped, subterranean bunker. It was a pathetic sight—barely two hundred people remained of a global population that once numbered in the billions.
A heavy silence fell over the viewers in the myriad realms. Zhang Chulan, stunned, remarked that even the most brutal apocalypse novels he'd read usually left millions alive. But this? This was total extinction.
The apocalypse brought by Goku Black wasn't just a disaster; it was a systematic slaughter. Even the most notorious villains across the dimensions felt a chill. Compared to the cold efficiency of Goku Black's "Justice," their own evil deeds seemed almost amateurish.
The multiversal chat began to stir with desperate theories. Naruto Uzumaki asked why they couldn't just use the Dragon Balls to undo the damage, but Uchiha Sasuke quickly shut him down, noting that without a protector, the resurrected would simply be killed again.
More importantly, as Akira and Tien Shinhan pointed out, the Dragon Balls of this timeline were gone. With the future versions of the Z-Warriors dead and Piccolo gone, the Earth's Dragon Balls had turned to stone. Trunks had no way to reach New Namek, meaning every death in this world was permanent.
While some viewers like Sanji hoped for a miracle involving the past's Dragon Balls, others like Kurosaki Ichigo were more observant. He pointed to the video's title: An Alternate Saiyan's Alternate Transformation.
If the "Rosé" form belonged to Goku or Vegeta, it wouldn't be called "alternate." A sinking feeling began to spread among the smarter viewers. Was the hero they were cheering for actually the source of the nightmare?
Inside the bunker, Bulma tried to alleviate the misery by opening a Hoi-Poi Capsule filled with a massive feast. As the starving survivors ate, Goku spotted a familiar face: Yajirobe.
The cowardly swordsman wept as he explained how Korin had given him the very last Senzu Bean to save his life, sacrificing himself in the process. This revelation set Goku's blood on fire. His resolve to crush the imposter hardened into a diamond-sharp edge.
Suddenly, a massive, dark Ki descended upon the ruins. The group rushed outside to find Goku Black hovering in the sky like a dark god. He was surprised to see them, having thought the Time Machine was destroyed, but his surprise quickly turned into a twisted, ecstatic joy. He wanted another taste of Goku's power.
Then, before the horrified eyes of Vegeta and Goku, the imposter began to power up. A violent, beautiful aura erupted from his body, but it wasn't the golden light of a Super Saiyan or the blue of a God.
It was a shimmering, lethal pink. His hair spiked upward, turning a vibrant rose hue, matched by his piercing, cold pupils. He looked down at the Saiyan Prince and Goku with a condescending sneer.
"In your Saiyan terminology," Goku Black purred, his voice dripping with divine arrogance, "this is called Super Saiyan Rosé."
The sight of the transformation sent a shockwave through the countless viewers of the Wanjie Multiverse. This wasn't just a new level of power—it was the perversion of a Saiyan's soul.
