In space, Goku struggles to keep up with Beerus' attack, which ultimately ends up in a massive explosion that threatens the universe before Beerus uses his full power to negate it with Mr. Satan taking the credit when called by his public relations group. Goku and Beerus continue their fight after the latter tells the mortal he is at his limit, Goku transforming back into a Super Saiyan after losing his divinity.

In a final effort to stop Beerus, Goku once again powers up and charges his Kamehameha attack. Goku manages to prevent Beerus' attack, but completely depletes his remaining energy in the process. He comes crashing down to Earth onto Bulma's ship, where Vegeta manages to catch him. Beerus lands on the planet shortly after to honor his promise of destroying Earth should he win, only to suddenly fall asleep. Whis explains that Goku must have tired Beerus out as he takes the Destroyer back to their home world, assuring the group that Beerus would have likely forgotten about their trip to Earth. But Beerus is actually pretending to sleep, having realized the Super Saiyan God ritual only unlocked a fraction of Goku's untapped potential while not wishing to admit his satisfaction of finding a worthy adversary while also wanting to sample more Earth food. With Earth safe again, Goku decides to relax and enjoy the party. | |||||||

Bulma, Trunks, and Goten attempt to contact Whis, which bewilders Jaco. While fighting Gohan, Ginyu appears to have the upper hand until Gohan transforms into a Super Saiyan and defeats him. When Gohan shows mercy to Ginyu, Frieza becomes enraged and explains that Gohan showing mercy on Ginyu reminds him of how he himself was spared by Goku and fires multiple Death Beams at Gohan. Before Frieza can kill Gohan, Piccolo steps in to save him. | |||||||

| Piccolo takes Frieza's attack to save Gohan and dies in the process. On Beerus' planet, Beerus has developed an obsession for pizza and becomes furious when he learns that Goku and Vegeta ate the reserve pizzas Whis stored in his pocket dimension. Whis telepathically responds to Bulma's invitation for a strawberry sundae and relays her message of Frieza's revival and Piccolo's death to Goku and Vegeta. As Whis says it would take some time to reach Earth, Goku resorts to instant transmission on Beerus' advice, but realizes that instant transmission is impossible due to the large distance between Earth and Beerus' planet and the need to find a potent enough energy signature to pinpoint. On Earth, Gohan powers up to his maximum limit to give his father an energy source for instant transmission. Goku and Vegeta arrive on Earth in the nick of time to save Gohan, upon which Vegeta promptly executes Ginyu. As Goku and Frieza meet after a long time, Frieza transforms directly into his final form to demonstrate his new power. This results in the death of all his men except for Sorbet, who is at a considerable distance. Perplexed by Frieza's new power, Goku prepares to engage in a battle. | |||||||

| The battle between Goku and Frieza begins. They fight on even ground, with neither one able to inflict significant damage to the other. Frieza resorts to attacking Krillin and Bulma. Goku tries to save them and is caught off guard when Frieza lands several blows on him. Eventually lashing out at Goku, Vegeta intervenes out of impatience for the fighters' constant rambling and holding back their full power. Goku takes Vegeta's request into account and convinces Frieza to power up to his maximum. When Frieza calls out to Goku to show his full power, Goku transforms on his own into a new version of a Super Saiyan God, the Super Saiyan Blue. | |||||||

| After testing Goku's new transformation, which Goku explains is a Super Saiyan equivalent to a Super Saiyan God, Frieza unveils his new Golden Frieza form. After expressing how impressed they are by each other's progress, Goku and Frieza engage in a fierce battle. Meanwhile, Whis informs Bulma of their arrival on Earth in a few minutes but he and Beerus stop midway aupon encountering Universe Six's Destroyer Champa (シャンパ, Shanpa) and his attendant Vados (ヴァドス, Vadosu). After having a short conversation with Champa and Vados, Beerus and Whis finally arrive on the battlefield. While eating Bulma's delicious dessert, Beerus and Whis acknowledge that Frieza has indeed become significantly stronger and that Goku seems to have a tough time keeping up with Golden Frieza. Still not used to his newest form, Goku struggles to keep up with Golden Frieza's speed and prowess, eventually getting pummeled into the ground. | |||||||

| Frieza and Goku continue their protracted battle with Frieza landing more blows on Goku than can be returned. Unable to match Frieza's raw power, Goku manages to withstand and dodge Frieza's attacks. Goku and Vegeta notice that Frieza is progressively losing stamina and that his power level is dropping. Frieza himself fails to notice this. Vegeta urges Goku to quickly finish Frieza off before he has a chance to recover, or he will step up and do so himself. After Goku and Frieza exchange some sarcastic banter, they power up again and continue their fight. Frieza still has the upper hand, but Goku realizes he only needs to stall Frieza long enough for his weakness to reappear. After a fully powered Frieza unleashes a barrage of attacks, he quickly becomes tired and starts running out of breath Frieza's attacks no longer hurt Goku. Frieza finally realizes his weakness, which is a lack of endurance. His Golden form exhausts more energy than he can produce. Goku explains this is because Frieza rushed to Earth immediately after achieving the Golden form without giving himself enough time to master it. Frieza agonizes over his failed chance at revenge in combat, but mouths a few inaudible words to Sorbet for assistance. Goku tells Frieza to leave Earth, while he still can do so. Everyone is surprised to see a laser beam pierce Goku's chest from behind, which was fired from Sorbet's ray gun. Stomping on Goku's chest wound to make him scream, Frieza gloats about his backup strategy to have Goku let his guard down. Frieza mocks him by claiming Goku's overconfidence prevents him from being the strongest fighter. Before Frieza can unleash his killing shot on Goku, Vegeta fires at Frieza and announces that it is his turn to fight. | |||||||

| Goku is critically injured, but Vegeta intervenes before Frieza can deliver a killing blow. When Krillin attempts to deliver Goku a Senzu Bean, Frieza attempts to blast him. Vegeta redirects the blast to Sorbet, which kills him. Afterwards, Vegeta demonstrates his own ability to transform into a Super Saiyan Blue. Frieza attempts to land a hit on Vegeta, but he fails to do so. Frieza is already exhausted from his fight with Goku. Frieza quickly finds himself completely outmatched by Vegeta. Enraged and humiliated, Frieza refuses to accept defeat. While Vegeta powers up a killing shot, Frieza instead fires an attack at the Earth and destroys it out from under them. Whis protects Goku and the others, but Vegeta and everyone else on the planet are killed. Whis suspects Frieza survived and escaped through his ability to breathe in space. As Goku laments his missed opportunity to finish off Frieza and protect the Earth, Whis offers to turn back time by a couple of minutes and allow Goku one last chance. The moment is reset to the end of Vegeta and Frieza's battle. This allows Goku just enough time to charge up a Decisive Kamehameha attack and kill Frieza in order to save the Earth. Later, the group gathers at Capsule Corporation, where Piccolo is revived with the Namekian Dragon Balls. Shaken by his helplessness against Frieza, Gohan tells Piccolo that he intends to resume his training so that he can protect his loved ones, which Piccolo is delighted to hear. | |||||||

After a small skirmish between Beerus and Champa, everyone settles down to eat some food with Champa formally introduced as Beerus' twin brother and Vados as Whis' older sister. An argument erupts concerning which universe's food is superior, with Whis explaining to Goku and Vegeta there are eleven universes besides their reality: The Seventh Universe. Whis adds that both the Seventh and Sixth Universes complement each other as their designated numbers add to thirteen. After Vados discovers that Universe Six's Earth has been destroyed through warfare, Champa proposes a tournament with Beerus with the winner allowed to swap Earths. Beerus protests until Champa reveals the feat is possible with the Super Dragon Balls, which the Namekian Dragon Balls were trimmed from, possessing six of them. Goku informs Beerus and Champa that Bulma is capable of locating the final Super Dragon Ball necessary to perform the wish. With tensions mounting, Beerus accepts Champa's proposal. | |||||||

The tournament is scheduled to begin five days as Champa has Vados proceeds to set up the arena with a breathable atmosphere. After judging Whis' students, Champa decides to enlist a Saiyan of his universe. On Earth, Whis requests that Bulma use her Dragon Radar in order to obtain the final Super Dragon Ball. While Bulma believes it would be easier to simply summon Shenron to locate it instead, the dragon reveals the task to be beyond his power. Beerus and Whis then take their leave to have Goku and Vegeta recruit two members for their team, the form revealing his intent to recruit a powerful fighter named Monaka (モナカ). After Bulma finishes constructing the Super Dragon Radar the following morning, she takes Beerus's banter seriously and intends to collect the Super Dragon Balls before the Destroyer could use them to wish for total annihilation of the entire world. | |||||||

| Goku and Vegeta meet up with Krillin, who goes with them to recruit Majin Buu as the fourth combatant of the Universe Seven team. Although Majin Buu is reluctant due to his hatred of Beerus, he agrees when Goku promises him a wish from the Super Dragon Balls, which he plans on giving to Mr. Satan. Goten and Trunks try to join, but they are denied by Vegeta because their use of fusion is illegal. The group finds Piccolo training with Gohan, recruiting him as their final member. Gohan considers joining the team, but he cannot participate due to a business meeting on the day of the tournament. Beerus and the others think back over recent events. Beerus and Whis contemplate the intentions behind Champa's plans as well as their own interests in Goku, recapping from their first encounter with the Saiyan to Frieza's demise. | |||||||

| Initially refusing to help Bulma after forcing him to come to Earth, Jaco suggests inquiring about the Super Dragon Ball from an omniscient alien named Master Zunō (ズノー様, Zunō-sama). After arriving on Master Zunō's planet, Jaco failing to mention the seven-year waiting period, the duo encounter a spacefaring criminal named Burpman (ゲップマン, Geppuman), who is wanted by the Galactic Patrol for multiple dine and dash crimes. Having accidentally destroyed a monument and pinning the blame on Burpman, Jaco eventually decides to arrest the criminal so he and Bulma can take his spot and seek Master Zunō's advice right away. While Bulma unwittingly wasted two of her three questions, she learns the radius and other properties of the Super Dragon Balls as well as that they were formerly scattered across both the Sixth and Seventh Universes. | |||||||

| On Earth, everyone gathers for the trip to the tournament. Goku and Vegeta arrive after having trained in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for three years. After stopping at Beerus' planet to get both him and Monaka, everyone proceeds to go to the tournament. The group meets their competition who are all somewhat unusual. This includes a Saiyan with a radically different history and a fighter resembling Frieza. After the written test, the Universe Seven team is left one team member down because Majin Buu falls asleep and is disqualified. Beerus decides that Monaka will go last. After a round of rock-paper-scissors, it is decided that Goku will fight first, followed by Piccolo, and then Vegeta. Goku and his competitor, a large bear-like creature named Botamo (ボタモ), enter the tournament ring. | |||||||

| The fight between Goku and Botamo commences. Goku takes a while to warm up due to having overeaten during the trip. Although Goku seems faster and more well trained than Botamo, none of the hits that he lands seem to have an effect. Botamo seems content to simply take the punishment. Urged by Vegeta to think before he acts, Goku drags Botamo to the side of the ring and throws him out. This results in a win for Universe Seven. The next match begins almost immediately with Goku facing the Frieza-like combatant Frost (フロスト, Furosuto). In direct contrast to Frieza, Frost is a kind and beloved hero in the Sixth Universe who looks forward to a challenge. Goku surprises Frost with knowledge of his transformations while asking him to assume his final form, Frost attempting to hold back by assuming his third form. But Goku sees through the deception and assumes Super Saiyan form to have Frost accept his request. Frost seems greatly outmatched by Goku even in his final transformation until a strange effect comes over the Saiyan, allowing Frost the chance to knock Goku out of the ring to his friends' shock. | |||||||

| With Goku removed from the tournament, Piccolo faces Frost next and charges up his Special Beam Cannon while simultaneously evading Frost's attacks. To buy himself time to charge his attack, Piccolo creates clones of himself to distract Frost. Frost quickly disposes of decoys and charges at Piccolo. After a bout of close combat, Frost defeats Piccolo with a power blast. Before the referee could rule in Frost's favor, Jaco chimes in claiming that Frost had been cheating all along. The referee examines Frost and finds that he had been using an illegal item hidden in his gauntlet to drug his opponents into a temporary stupor. Champa is initially outraged to find that Frost had cheated. Vados reveals that Frost actually runs a criminal empire with the latter confessing that he set up the attacks on the planets he saved. Although Piccolo is declared the winner and Frost is disqualified, Vegeta reverses it to fight Frost. | |||||||

| After Frost arrogantly announces his intent to utterly defeat Vegeta with poison, both parties agree that the match should not be regulated by the standard rules so both combatants can fight to kill. This ends up with Frost mercilessly defeated and knocked out of the ring by Vegeta, who refuses to lower himself by killing Frost. Beerus then proceeds to have Goku reinstated into the competition after finding where Frost's weapon got him, insisting the Saiyan goes after Monaka with a hushed remark from Whis concerning Monaka's "true colors". Vados generates a new barrier around the ring as the referee announces a new rule, where any contact an individual makes with the barrier automatically disqualifies them. Meanwhile, Frost attempts to steal the treasure Champa promised the team and escape in Champa's transportation cube, but is knocked out by the assassin Hit (ヒット, Hitto) and brought back to the arena. The next match begins. Vegeta faces off against the robot-like alien Magetta (マゲッタ), with the audience disputing over Magetta's eligibility over spitting lava. Magetta is declared eligible because the lava is just his saliva. Magetta's volcanic fumes engulf the barrier and cause Vegeta to perspire rapidly and breathe heavily from the extreme heat. | |||||||

| Vegeta struggles in his battle with Magetta due to both the rising temperatures and the lack of oxygen above the ring. Vegeta tries to win quickly, but Magetta endures and counters his attacks. Magetta follows it with a punch that sends Vegeta flying toward the ground. After nearly being disqualified through by going out of bounds, Vegeta powers up in anger and destroys the arena's barrier. He blasts Magetta and forces him to the very edge of the stage, managing to only succeed as Magetta's species is revealed to be very sensitive to hurtful insults. | |||||||

| Vegeta faces a young Sixth Universe Saiyan Cabba (キャベ), his people being benevolent galactic protectors. Vegeta and Cabba are initially equally matched, the latter revealing his inability to become a Super Saiyan and requesting Vegeta to teach him. This seemingly enrages Vegeta as he assumes his Super Saiyan to mercilessly beat Cabba to an inch of his life while threatening to kill everyone he holds dear if he loses. This provokes Cabba to awaken his Super Saiyan form as he goes on the offensive, only to learn that Vegeta was purposely provoking him into channeling his anger. Vegeta quickly powers up into Super Saiyan Blue to display what Cabba could achieve before knocking him out. Though Cabba thanks Vegeta for telling him about his untapped potential, he brushes him off and tells the youth to not forget his Saiyan pride and surpass all others. Cabba acknowledges Vegeta's advice and walks off the stage. With Universe Six now down to their last fighter, Champa is still unconcerned as he is certain his Hit will settle the score in their favor despite learning what the assassin requested as his reward. | |||||||

| Vegeta and Hit start their battle, the former finding himself unable to land a single blow on Hit due to his superior speed. Eventually, Vegeta is struck by a heavy blow and collapses with Hit declared the winner. Suddenly, it is revealed that Hit used a technique called "time-skip", which freezes a tenth of a second for everyone but himself. Goku walks up to battle Hit. Initially, Hit overpowers Goku, which prompts him to ask Goku to surrender. Goku refuses and reveals he's been using the time to figure out how Hit's technique works, predicting and evading his opponent's moves. Hit claims that Goku's foresight was just a fluke and that he will not be able to use it again. But Goku is able to foresee Hit's attacks and defend himself. Goku proposes that both of them fight at their full power. Hit concurs and withdraws. Shortly afterwards, both start preparing for their next fight. | |||||||

| While Goku manages to counter Hit's time-skip attacks, the displeased Hit fakes a power up while revealing that Goku inspired him to increase the duration of his time-skip to a second to inflict enough blows to force Goku on ground. Champa tells Hit to finish off Goku, but Hit refuses to obey his order out of respect for Goku. Goku manages to get back on his feet, and the two resume their fight. Goku is soon backed into a corner and resorts to using a move he intended to use on Beerus: using the Kaiō-ken technique while in Super Saiyan Blue form to greatly increase his strength and speed. Having powered up, Goku begins pummeling and blasting Hit, who manages to evade most of the attacks with ease. | |||||||

| Goku and Hit reach a stalemate as they resolve not to fight for the Destroyers' whims, Goku requesting that for the rules to be waived so Hit can freely use his assassination techniques. Champa and Beerus argue over this decision before Goku jumps out of the ring in response to Beerus's refusal to remove the rules, revealing that he was at his limit of using Kaiō-ken. Shortly afterwards, a frightened Monaka faces Hit, who takes a dive to repay Goku for enabling him to surpass his limits the Universe Seven team declared the winners. Just as the festivities are about to conclude while Champa gives his team death threats, Grand Zenō (全王), a mysterious "King of Universes", appears in the ring. | |||||||

| While appearing because of the Destroyers' conduct, Grand Zeno expressed enough interest in their tournament to organize one for all twelve universes with the other deities unnerved by Goku casually approaching the Omni-King. Champa proceeds to return to his universe to train his team the upcoming tournament. Beerus asks Bulma to find the seventh Super Dragon Ball with her tracker, with deductive reasoning provided by Android 18 and Monaka revealing that it is the planet they are on. Once Bulma provides the incantation, with the wish made in the Divine Language, Whis summons Super Shenron (スーパーシェンロン, Chāo Shénlóng) with Beerus secretly wishing for the restoration of the Sixth Universe's Earth. Vados informs Champa what Beerus wished for. Whis leaves Beerus and Monaka on Beerus' planet and departs for Earth. Monaka is then revealed to be an ordinary mail delivery man and aspiring fighter, Beerus awarding Monaka for his help motivating Goku and Vegeta. Goku, Vegeta, and the others from Earth return home. | |||||||

| Bulma holds a celebration party at the Capsule Corporation following the tournament, with Beerus lying to her about relaying the invitation to Monaka as he and Whis know Goku would want to fight Monaka if he were to attend. But Monaka does attend due to Jaco making an order to the former's delivery company, forcing Beerus to come clean about Monaka while threatening the others to hide this from Goku. When Goku does arrive, Goten and Trunks suggest that Beerus disguise himself in a Monaka costume to fight Goku. Beerus agrees to the plan, the fight eventually ended by Whis and Pu'ar disguised as Beerus. With Goku none the wiser, everyone carries on with the festivities. | |||||||

| Piccolo reveals to Gohan that he already joined the Seventh Universe team after Goku informed of their universe's potential erasure, explaining his intent to put Gohan through intense training to reawaken his latent power while explaining one of the flaws in his pupil being his feelings for protect his loved ones are limiting his power. When Piccolo later removes his weighted clothes to go all out, he points out Gohan's other weakness being his arrogance which Super Buu once exploited. Though Gohan manifests a fraction of latent power, he lost the match due to his overconfidence after Piccolo blasts him in the back with the severed arm. That night, Piccolo vows to push Gohan to new heights of power and agrees that they should work on combination moves. Meanwhile, at the Sixth Universe, Cabba attempts to recruit his retired captain and mentor Renso (レンソウ, Rensou) for the Tournament of Power. But Renso refuses due to a leg injury, suggesting his stronger sister Caulifla (カリフラ, Karifura) in his stead. | |||||||

| During Gohan's spar with Piccolo, Goku learns from Oolong that Master Roshi is serving as an honorary instructor at Tien's new martial arts dojo. Goku decides to make Tien the tenth member of the team as he heads there to recruit Roshi, arriving just after a woman named Yurin (ユーリン, Yūrin) enrolls at Roshi's behest despite Tien finding her apparent motivation unacceptable. As Goku fails to convince Tien to participate even mentioning the ten million Zeni prize, Yurin manages to escape Roshi and uses paper talismans to force Tien's students to destroy the town. The group confront Yurin, who reveals herself as a Crane School student seeking revenge on Tien ignoring her challenge the day he left their school. Roshi battles Yurin while the others subdue the students, only to be bewitched by Yurin while distracted from an accidental glimpse of her panties. The brainwashed Master Roshi quickly defeats Tien before Goku intervenes, managing to defeat him while Chiaotzu temporarily disables Yurin, Goku subdues Master Roshi with a Kamehameha and cures him of the brainwashing. Yurin attempts to run off until Tien allows her to remain his student as her desire of getting strong is genuine, though he has her apologize to the villagers. Tien decides to join the Tournament of Power because he believes that the ten million Zeni Goku promised will repair the village, Roshi eagerly following suit upon hearing about the ten million Zeni. Meanwhile, at the Sixth Universe, Cabba sways Caulifla into joining his team with the prospect of teaching her how to become a Super Saiyan. | |||||||

| As Gohan finishes training with Piccolo, they meet up with Goku, Master Roshi, Tien, and Chiaotzu. At Gohan's request, Goku and Tien have a fight against Gohan and Piccolo to practice for the Tournament of Power. Although Tien views this as a practice match and wants to avoid injuring anyone, Gohan and Goku take the fight seriously. As Gohan fights both his father and Tien, Piccolo spends the time charging a strong technique that ultimately destroys the mountain they were using as a ring. Though Goku agrees when Tien calls off the match, he accepts Gohan's request for a one-on-one fight that ends with Super Saiyan Blue Goku using the Kaio-ken to defeat Gohan. Goku expresses being impressed enough with Gohan that he assign his son as their team captain. Meanwhile, with Gowasu too flustered to the Tenth Universe's Destroyer Rumsshi (ラムーシ, Ramūshi) recruited a powerful fighter named Murichim (ムリチム, Murichimu) and his nine companions to represent them in the Tournament of Power. | |||||||

The Seventh Universe, Vegeta undergoes intense training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber while his gravity chamber in Capsule Corp is used by Goku to spar with Whis. Master Roshi enlists Puar to train himself to overcome his perverted nature. The Zenos are then shown the other universes' progress, first with the Trio of Danger having trouble in recruiting fighters after the Ninth Universe has descended into chaos after its denizens heard of their potential erasure. In the Sixth Universe, his reputation in shambles since being exposed as criminal, a destitute Frost is approached by Hit for the tournament while relieved of his hidden arsenal. In the Eleventh Universe Kahseral is delayed from meeting up with Top as helps a cat stuck in a tree while the Second Universe depicts a magical girl named Brianne de Chateau (ブリアン・デ・シャトー, Burian de Shatō) transforming into her alter ego Ribrianne (リブリアン, Riburian) while on her way to audition for a spot on the Second Universe Two team. In the Tenth Universe, Murichim and his nine companions record a dance video to improve team spirit.

| As most of the members of the Seventh Universe team gather, Goku races to Mr. Satan's house and finds it impossible to wake Majin Buu up from his hibernation. By the time Goku returns, Piccolo had revealed the truth of the Tournament of Power to everyone with a betrayed Krillin confronting Goku about it with intention of dropping out like Android 18 and Tien. But Beerus threatens Krillin to remain while Bulma promises to compensate 18 and Tien for their help. With the group unable to figure out Buu's replacement, Beerus's rant of them wiping out potential recruits in the Frieza Force inspires Goku to recruit Frieza, to everyone's shock. Meanwhile, in the Sixth Universe, despite his failure to get her angry enough, Cabba teaches Caulifla the means of becoming Super Saiyan by focusing her energy around an area in her back. Caulifla is amazed by her new power, agreeing to join his team on the condition that her comrade Kale (ケール, Kēru) undergoes the transformation herself. While Top and Kahseral discuss entrusting the Eleventh Universe to Pride Trooper recruits in their absence, the deities of the Third Universe, Supreme Kai Eyre (エア, Ea) and Destroyer Mosco (モスコ, Mosuko), and Camparri (カンパーリ, Kanpāri) meet the cyborg Nigrissi (ニグリッシ, Nigrisshi) as he displays the modifications he made on Nigrissi (ニグリッシ, Nigrisshi) and the rest of their team. | |||||||

| Despite everyone questioning his decision, revealing that Frieza's irredeemable nature keeps him trapped, Goku explains his intention to have Fortuneteller Baba resurrect Frieza for twenty four hours to fight in the Tournament of Power. Goku's friends reluctantly accept Goku's decision as he travels to Other World make the arrangements with King Yemma before visiting Frieza. After Goku explains about the Tournament of Power, Frieza accepts joining the group while having Goku promise to properly resurrect him with Earth's Dragon Balls should they win.

Meanwhile, in the Sixth Universe, Cabba and Caulifla were unable to get Kale to turn into a Super Saiyan until her own frustration enrage her enough to trigger her transformation into an extremely powerful Super Saiyan Berserker. Kale immediately goes berserk and attacks Cabba, Caulifla quickly deducing it as a jealous rage over her and Cabba's perceived relationship. Caulifla clarifies having no feelings for Cabba, causing Kale to revert and collapse in Caulifla's arms as Cabba notes of finding another addition for their team. | |||||||

| Quitela contacts the Ninth Universe's Destroyer Sidra (シドラ, Shidora) and informs him of the potential danger of the Seventh Universe enlisting Frieza as they must secretly eliminate him, Sidra informing Roh of this as they agree to enlist assassins for the task. Back in the Seventh Universe, Goku informs the group of his success while enlisting Bulma's help for something to give to Baba for her services. As Master Roshi completes his training at Korin's tower, Krillin and Android 18 pick up Android 17 while leaving Goten and Trunks behind to watch over the island along with Marron. Goku goes to Fortuneteller Baba's home, where she completes the ritual to temporarily resurrect Frieza. As Goku and Frieza prepare to depart, they are confronted by the assassins.

| Frieza explains to Goku that he spent his recent incarceration in Hell undergoing intense mental training to overcome the stamina issues that plagued him during his previous battles, slaughtering most of the assassins while Goku prevents them from taking Baba hostage. The assassins' leader attempts to take out Frieza with the orb of destructive power Sidra bestowed him, but Frieza overcomes and hijacks the attack. Frieza then spitefully uses the attack on Goku and traps him, while taunting him to break free. Frieza tortures and kills the remaining assassins before contacting Roh and Sidra, offering his services in return for a full resurrection and a place in the Ninth Universe. But Roh, seeing Frieza as too evil by his standards, argues against this with Sidra. Their argument buys time for Beerus and Whis to arrive and rescue Goku, while Frieza cuts the connection. Frieza begins making plans to use the Tournament of Power to manipulate the gods to suit his own ends. Goku and Frieza have a brief sparring match, to decide whether or not Frieza can act on his own, which ends in a draw. Goku, Frieza, Beerus, and Whis return to the Capsule Corporation. The Universe Seven team prepares to travel to the Null Realm for the Tournament of Power. | |||||||

| In the Null Realm, the Destroyers Iwan (イワン, Iwan) of the First Universe, Arak (アラク, Araku) of the Fifth Universe, and Liqueur (リキール, Rikīru) of the Eighth Universe have a brief exhibition match to test the durability of the Tournament of Power's ring, forced by the Grand Minister to repair it soon after. Back in the Seventh Universe, Gohan and Shin's plan out their team to stick together to conserve energy and use their numbers for defense with Goku and Vegeta not on board with it. Whis then contacts the Grand Minister to transports the team to the Null Realm as the other universes' teams arrive, the angel explaining that only deities and natural fliers can freely fly before he, Beerus, and the Kais take their seats. Frieza and Frost befriend each other and agree to work together, while Goku singles out Jiren as a potential rival from seeing his ability. As the Grand Minister introduces each team, the Fourth Universe appears to have only eight warriors on their team, which confuses most of the Seventh Universe team save for Tien, who tells his teammates that he can sense the faint presence of two warriors. After a speech from the Zenos, the eighty warriors prepare for battle. | |||||||

| The Grand Minister relays rulings before officially starting the Tournament of Power, with Goku intercepted by Ganos when he targets Top. Vegeta, Frieza, and the Androids also disregard Gohan's plan with the rest of the team working together to fend off warriors from varying universes. The Third Universe gains an early advantage with Narirama's spinning attack until Hit and Basil disable it, the latter knocking out the Tenth Universe's Rylibeu (リリベウ, Riribeu) who is teleported to the stand after her loss. Basil nearly does the same to the Tenth Universe's Napapa (ナパパ, Napapa), who pushed the attack away at the last second. Goku encounters Jiren while pursuing Top, only to get grabbed by the Fourth Universe's Nink (ニンク, Ninku) who intended to drag Goku out of the ring with him. But Goku turns Super Saiyan Blue to break Nink's hold while knocking him off the stage. As Goku reverts to his normal form to conserve energy, he is surrounded by the Trio of Danger two other Ninth Universe warriors with forty-seven minutes remaining in the Tournament of Power. | |||||||

| Roh orders his warriors to attack Goku in order to avenge their defeat at the Zeno Expo, with Goku being overwhelmed by Trio of Dangers' teamwork while trying to avoid fighting to conserve stamina for later in the tournament. Vegeta notices Goku's plight and backs him up before Roh sends over three more warriors as they overwhelm the Saiyans with teamwork. But the plan fails when Lavender and Hop (ホップ, Hoppu)'s egos over finishing Vegeta resorted in the former's injury, allowing the Saiyans to exploit this and take most them out while Android 18 defeats Sorrel (ソレル, Soreru) and a traumatized Roselle (ローゼル, Rōzeru) disqualifies himself to escape Frieza. Only the Trio of Danger remain as they resort to a last ditch combination attack before being knocked out of the ring when the Saiyans power up to Super Saiyan Blue and use a Final Kamehameha combined by Goku's Kamehameha and Vegeta's Final Flash. With all ten members eliminated from the Tournament of Power, the Zenos erase both the Ninth Universe and its representatives save the Angel Mohito (モヒイト, Mohi'ito) as he is amused by the turn of events. | |||||||

| While the other warriors regain their composure from seeing the Ninth Universe's erased, Android 17 reminds Android 18 that they have no reason to hold back due to their infinite stamina. Vegeta tries to fight Hit before being attacked by Botamo, attempting to throw him out before Auta Magetta intervenes with the two Sixth Universe fighters teaming up to remove their individual weaknesses. While the Tenth Universe's Dium (ジウム, Jiumu) is swiftly eliminated while attacking Gohan's group, the Fourth Universe's Shosa (ショウサ, Shōsa) tricks Android 18 into lowering her guard by playing possum death and nearly knocks her off the stage with a barrage of ki blasts, only for her to be saved by Krillin as the couple take Shosa out with a powerful combination attack. They are challenged by the Fourth Universe's Majora (マジョラ, Majora), a blind fighter whose powerful sense of smell allows him to pinpoint his enemies. But Krillin manages to disorientate Majora with his smelly shoe before knocking him out, getting knocked out of the ring himself by Frost while his guard is down. Beerus and Shin berate Krillin for his carelessness while forty-three minutes remain in the Tournament of Power. | |||||||

| While the Seventh Universe compensates from Krillin's defeat, Cabba defeats Nigrissi and the Tenth Universe's Murisam (ムリサーム, Murisāmu) before confronting Vegeta while Hit takes out an armless Narirama after using his time skip to dodge the robot's chest cannon. Meanwhile, Caulifla saves Kale from being thrown out by Napapa and his teammate Methiop (メチオープ, Mechiōpu), knocking the former out instead. Caulifla and Kale confront Goku with former interrupting his fight with the Second Universe Yardrat Jimizu (ジーミズ,, Jīmizu) while wanting to learn to enter Super Saiyan Blue form. Caulifla transforms into an Ultra Super Saiyan when Goku deems her too inexperienced to learn the technique, though he instead helps her attain Super Saiyan 2 form so they can fight properly. But Kale ends up assuming her Super Saiyan Berserker form as the result of being left out and being consumed by her feelings of uselessness, Hit saving Caulifla as their teammate attacks Goku in a jealous rage. Kale easily overwhelms Goku even after he enters Super Saiyan Blue and is unaffected by Kamehameha. As Piccolo realizes she has lost control of her power, Kale begins indiscriminately blasting the ring, taking out both Methiop and the Eleventh Universe's Vewon (ブーオン, Būon) before Jiren knocks her unconscious with a single ki blast. As Hit and Caulifla retreat with Kale, Goku challenges Jiren. | |||||||

Goku ends up where Caulifla and Kale as Kahseral's group find them, deciding to go after Kale to avenge Vewon with the Sixth Universe Saiyans forced into a temporary alliance with Goku. Meanwhile, Master Roshi and Tien take out the Third Universe's Za Priccio (ザ・プリーチョ, Za Purīcho) before regrouping with Gohan, Piccolo, Vegeta, and Frieza, who has defeated Murichim. The Pride Troopers push Goku, Caulifla, and Kale to the brink until the Androids arrive to their aid. Android 17 easily overpowers Kahseral until he falls back to the others after learning Android 18 and Goku defeated Tupper. The remaining Pride Troopers focus their assault on the wounded Caulifla and Kale after the latter was sealed in pocket dimension by Cocotte, who forms another dimension to prevent Goku and the Androids from interfering. As the four Pride Troopers beat Caulifla, Kale's self-hatred causes her to transform into a regular Super Saiyan, breaking free of her prison before she in Super Saiyan Berserker and Caulifla in Super Saiyan 2 use a combination attack to blast Kahseral, Zoire, and Kettle out of the ring. Cocotte seals herself in a mini-dimension to avoid the blast, only to be thrown out of the ring instead by Android 18. Goku allows Caulifla and Kale to leave so he can fight them after they get stronger, though he and the Androids are unaware that Brianne de Chateau is observing them. | |||||||

| Brianne de Chateau and her teammates Sanka Coo (サンカ・クー, Sanka Kū) and Sous Roas (スー・ロース, Sū Rōsu) announce themselves to the other fighters and begin to transform into their magical girl alter egos. Android 17 blasts them before they can transform, but Brianne de Chateau, Goku, and Top berate him for his dishonorable tactics and browbeat him into allowing them to transform, much to Beerus' dismay. They assume their alter egos Ribrianne, Kakunsa (カクンサ, Kakunsa), and Roasie (ロージィ, Rōjī) and barrage the arena with a powerful love based attack that brainwashes some of the fighters with the Seventh Universe fighters unaffected due to their mental discipline. Gohan's group elects to split up and fight independently. Vegeta attacks Ribrianne, who counters with a rolling attack that knocks out the Tenth Universe's Dyrasem (ジラセン, Jirasen). Roasie attacks Goku with a flurry of blows that grows more powerful the longer she keeps it up, while Kakunsa battles Android 17 with her animalistic fighting style. Android 17 baits her into overextending herself and stuns her with a barrier before he attempts to knock her out of the stage, only for her teammate Bikal (ビカル, Bikaru) to rescue her. Android 17 decides to stop holding back and swiftly eliminates both Second Universe fighters, his actions infuriating Ribrianne as she powers up to fight him. | |||||||

| Ribrianne and Android 17 fiercely attack each other, while Roasie overwhelms Goku's defenses before her attempt to blow him up is stopped by Android 17 protecting him with a barrier. Goku, who has studied Roasie's techniques, hits her with a powerful ki blast. Goku and Android 17 corner Roasie and Ribrianne before they are spirited off by Jimizu via his instant transmission. Elsewhere, Botamo act on Champa's orders to attack Gohan, whose flurry of blows seemed to have no effect on Botamo. However, Gohan's attacks begin to lift Botamo off the ground and renders him unable to defend himself, which allows Gohan to knock him off the stage. The Tenth Universe's Obni (オブニ, Obuni) and Rubalt (ルバルト, Rubaruto) appear to challenge Gohan and Piccolo while their teammate Zircor (ジルコル, Jirukoru) is eliminated by Jimizu. With eight warriors eliminated, Gowasu accepts his imminent demise, while Rumush remains defiant. Obni shifts his ki away from his body to render himself undetectable and wounds Gohan. Piccolo is initially overwhelmed by Rubalt until he uses his Hellzone Grenade to eliminate him with only Obni left to represent the Tenth Universe. Obni begins to overwhelm Gohan, which makes Gowasu want to cling to life again. Gohan powers up and powers through one of Obni's punches. He counterattacks Obni's moves by locating and hitting Obni after he gets hit. Obni pauses the fight to show his respect for Gohan yet adamant to not lose for his universe's sake. Gohan battles and defeats Obni with a Kamehameha. As the Zenos erase the Tenth Universe representatives, Gohan discovers a locket containing a picture of Obni with his family and mourns the Tenth Universe's erasure alongside the Tenth Universe Angel Kusu (クス, Kusu). | |||||||

| Dyspo challenges Hit and uses his incredible speed to overwhelm Hit's Time Skip. Everyone quickly deduces that Dyspo is listening for the sound of Hit's body tensing up to determine when he is about to attempt to use Time Skip. Hit resorts to fighting him conventionally, but he is pushed to the edge of the stage. Top deduces that Hit has adjusted to Dyspo's fighting style and is luring him into a trap and sends his fellow Pride Trooper K'nsi (クンシー, Kunshī) to back Dyspo up. K'nsi uses his energy ropes to save Dyspo as he lost his footing when Hit turned intangible. Dyspo and K'nsi launch a renewed assault against Hit and drive him into a corner before Goku intervenes. Goku uses his Super Saiyan God form to counter Dyspo's speed, while Hit uses his assassination technique to injure K'nsi. Goku and Hit switch places. Hit uses a fake Time Skip to throw Dyspo off and wound him, while Goku overwhelms K'nsi with his Super Saiyan Blue form. Hit attempts to eliminate Dyspo, but K'nsi rescues him again. K'nsi charges Hit, who turns intangible and knocks him off the stage. Dyspo retreats and regroups with his allies. Top abandons all notions of justice and decides to focus on survival.

| Master Roshi quietly observes the battles from afar. He is confronted and seduced by the Fourth Universe fighter Caway (キャウェイ, Kyauei). Master Roshi snaps back to his senses in time. Master Roshi destroys her energy weapon, powers up, and drives her to jump off the stage. Master Roshi is next challenged by Caway's teammate Dercori (ダーコリ, Dākori), who uses her talismans to confound Master Roshi with illusions and trap him in a single spot before using his Evil Containment Wave to seal her in a small bottle and toss it off the ring. Quitela and Beerus get into an argument about the legality of the move. The Present Grand Zenō and Future Grand Zenō rule in Master Roshi's favor. Ganos, who is enraged at Master Roshi for eliminating his friends, challenges him and powers up into an avian form. Initially, Master Roshi is able to use his experience to predict, evade, and counter Ganos' attacks. However, Ganos is able to grow more powerful the longer a fight drags on. He rallies and delivers a fierce series of blows to Master Roshi. Master Roshi attempts to hypnotize Ganos into falling asleep, but he attacks himself to wake himself up. Ganos demands that Master Roshi accept his limits and give up, but Master Roshi refuses. Master Roshi unleashes a Max Power Kamehameha that defeats Ganos. But the effort is too much for Master Roshi's body to handle as he collapses, Goku managing to defibrillates him with his ki before escorting his mentor to safety. | |||||||

| Goku brings Master Roshi to an isolated part of the stage and leaves him to recuperate at his request. Gohan and Piccolo are confronted by the Sixth Universe's Dr. Rota (Dr.ロタ, Dokutā Rota) before he was taken down by a sniper before he can reveal his ability. Gohan and Piccolo are unable to find the location of the sniper until they find a red orb on the ground. It is revealed that the sniper, the Second Universe's Prum (プラン, Puran), can see through these orbs. The lasers ricochet off of the orbs so that his true location is a secret. Piccolo tries to create a smokescreen in order to blur the vision, but Prum can still see them via their heat signatures. Prum shoots Piccolo and destroys both of his arms, which forces him to painfully regenerate them. Gohan and Piccolo realize that the orbs depend on heat signatures and blast the surrounding area to create multiple heat signatures. Prum responds by coming out of his hiding spot and blasting the entire area. Gohan and Piccolo are forced into hiding. Tien analyzes Dr. Rota and deduces that he was hit by a sniper as Goku and Vegeta arrive. Vegeta berates Tien, who warns them about Prum, but Vegeta arrogantly brushes it off until he is almost incapacitated by one of Prum's blasts. As Goku and Tien observe Prum, they deduce that there is another shooter from behind as Prum is merely reflecting the blasts. Vegeta and Goku go after Prum, while Tien goes to save Gohan and Piccolo. Goku and Vegeta try to attack Prum, but their ki blasts are reflected off of his body. Tien navigates through the field of blasts and confronts the true sniper, Prum's teammate Harmira (ハーミラ, Hāmira). Realizing that Prum can deflect ki blasts and not physical attacks, Vegeta and Goku throw giant boulders at him. Tien uses his multi-form technique in order to buy himself time against Harmira, but three of his clones are shot down. The fourth and final Tien defeats Harmira. Just as Tien is about to eliminate him, Harmira shoots the ground underneath Tien's feet and knocks him off the stage. However, Tien's other three clones come back and drag Harmira down with them. Tien and Harmira are eliminated from the Tournament of Power. Although Beerus praises Tien for forcing the battle into a draw, Tien is noticeably upset about being defeated. As Prum is confronted by Vegeta, Dr. Rota comes back and attacks Prum as revenge for shooting him. Shortly afterwards, Vegeta eliminates Prum and Dr. Rota from the Tournament of Power. | |||||||

| As the Third Universe's Maji Kayo (マジ＝カーヨ, Maji-Kāyo) is effortlessly defeated by Jiren while confronting him and the remaining Pride Troopers, Frost recalls convincing Champa to pardon him if he defeats the Seventh Universe in a humiliating matter. Frost targets Master Roshi with Ribrianne preventing Goku's interference, with Roshi making a failed attempt to seal the villain with his Evil Containment Wave. Vegeta intervenes, only for Frost to get added muscle in Auta Magetta whose ears are covered. Frost goads Roshi into attempting another Evil Containment Wave on Auta Magetta despite the risk of killing himself, with Frost redirecting the attack on Vegeta and seals him the bottle Roshi used in his previous attempt. But Roshi, after being heavily wounded by Frost, manages to use the last of his strength to destroy the bottle and free Vegeta.

| As Goku battles Ribrianne, the deities of the top four universes speculate on who will win the tournament. Meanwhile, Gohan is confronted by Jimizu and is overwhelmed by the Yardrat's Instant Transmission technique before Frieza intervenes. The Seventh Universe group speculate Frieza may intend to betray them so he can obtain the Super Dragon Balls for his own ends while allowing Jimizu to resume his attack on Gohan. But Frieza again intervenes on a whim to save Gohan and provokes Jimizu into attacking him, swiftly eliminating the Yardrat in an antagonizing manner. Frost then appears with Frieza confessing that they formed an alliance before attacking Gohan before knowing him out in Golden form. Frieza then teaches Frost how to enter the 100% Full Power state, only to eliminate him in a surprise double-cross. Gohan admits that he immediately figured out Frieza's plan and played along with him. An enraged Frost attempts to attack Frieza from the spectator stands, only to be erased by the present Zeno for acting against the rules. While the Zenos leave the Sixth Universe representatives with a warning to follow the rules or face instant erasure, Goku continues battling Ribrianne. | |||||||

| Ribrianne declares her intention of using the Super Dragon Balls to a universal love deity, Goku admitting he never thought on what wish for as he considers using benefiting his family or meeting a strong opponent. Ribrianne absorbs the teammates' love energy to become Super Ribrianne to attack, only to be knocked back to her form by Super Saiyan Blue Goku. As Ribrianne takes over after landing near Jiren, the Pride receives a telepathic massage from the Eleventh Universe's Destroyer Belmod (ベルモッド, Berumoddo) to defeat Goku as to demoralize the other universes. After Jiren overpowered him while he powered up to Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken x20, Goku is allowed by his opponent to use his Spirit Bomb, Vegeta thwarting Ribrianne's sneak attack while the other Seventh Universe teammates lending Goku their power. Goku completes the Spirit Bomb and throws it, but Jiren easily deflects it with just one hand. Goku and Jiren engage in a struggle to take control of the Spirit Bomb, initially a stalemate until Jiren begins overwhelming Goku with his own attack. | |||||||

| Goku powers up even more and pushes the Spirit Bomb back towards Jiren before he repels it with a glare, Whis assuming him to be the rumored figure in the Eleventh Universe whose power surpasses Belmod. The continued stalemate eventually causes the Spirit Bomb to collapse into a small black hole, sucking in Goku before it explodes. With Goku assumed dead, the Grand Minister rules Jiren not to be subjected to disqualification since Goku was killed by his own attack. The Zenos prepare to eliminate Goku before suddenly rematerializes, having reached a new level of power as he is able to go toe-to-toe with Jiren. Whis realizes that Goku accidentally achieved the legendary deity technique Autonomous Ultra Instinct -Sign- (身み勝がっ手ての極ごく意い”兆きざし”, Migatte no Goku'i "Kizashi", lit. "Secret of selfishness "Omen""), theorizing it to have occurred when Goku broke through his limits while being revitalized from being exposed to the Spirit Bomb's explosion. Goku fights Jiren on equal footing before his newfound power wears off. Jiren knocks Goku away, with Hit attempting to take advantage of the opportunity and attacks Jiren. After Vegeta demands to know what happened before facing Ribrianne, Goku teleports to a safe location where Frieza corners him. | |||||||

| Given the impression that he intends to kill Goku as he explains they are in a blind spot, Frieza instead transfers from his energy into Goku to heal him as his way of repaying Goku's act of mercy during their fight on Planet Namek. Goku later observes Hit's battle against Jiren, only to be ambushed by the Sixth Universe Namekians Saonel (サオネル, Saoneru) and Pilina (ピリナ, Pirina) before the duo are confronted by Gohan and Piccolo. Elsewhere, Vegeta overpowers Ribrianne before Roasie interferes and duo fall back with the latter restoring Ribrianne's morale. Meanwhile, purposely using his time-skip powers against Jiren, Hit execute a gambit to freeze Jiren so Cabba, Caulifla, and Kale to keep fighting. But Jiren eventually breaks free and eliminates Hit. As the Tournament of Power reaches its midway point, Jiren begins meditating while leaving Top and Dyspo to deal with the other fighters. Biarra (ビアラ, Biara) and Catopesra (カトペスラ, Katopesura) of the Third Universe find out the hard way that they cannot penetrate Jiren's barrier to hit him. | |||||||

Caulifla and Kale are discussing the battle between Goku and Jiren. Caulifla and Kale are confronted by the Fourth Universe warrior Monna (モンナ, Monna), with Cabba sacrificing himself to holding her so the girls can fall back due to being Sixth Universe's remaining aces. Cabba is save from being thrown out by Vegeta, reminding the young Sayian of his promise from their previous match of taking him to Planet Sadala while revealing his intent of using the Super Dragon Balls to restore the Sixth Universe. A newly inspired Cabba achieves Super Sayian 2 and eliminates Monna, only to quickly eliminated by Frieza who seeks to subvert the deities. Meanwhile, Vegeta ends up battling Top and he meets up with Goku, who is still having difficulty with his three opponents. However, Caulifla intervenes and knocks the robots away, powering up to Super Saiyan 2 to challenge Goku herself. | |||||||

| With Hit and Cabba on her mind, Caulifla demands Goku to fight her so she can learn to enter Super Saiyan 3 so that she can win the Tournament of Power. Goku accepts, explaining to be patient as he gradually regains his strength while using his martial arts to have an advantage against her brawler fighting-style despite her being Super Saiyan 2. But Goku manages to enter Super Sayian 2 form after she adapts to his moves, Whis noting that the fight is bringing out her untapped potential as she and Goku are evenly matched. But Goku calls in Kale to join the fight, holding himself against the female Sayians until they start to match him with their teamwork. They land a massive combined attack on him, but Goku finally powers up to Super Saiyan 3 long enough to easily deflect their attacks. Caulifla is satisfied despite Goku being forced back into his Super Saiyan 2 form, adamant to reach that level of power while Kale's desire to get stronger as well inadvertently causes her to transform into her Super Saiyan Berserker form again. | |||||||

| Vegeta continues his battle with Top, while Caulifla is able to help Kale come to her senses and transform into Super Saiyan 2 before the two double-team Goku. Goku is eventually knocked into Frieza's fight with Catopesra, with Frieza deciding to observe the fight after Goku tells him not to attack Caulifla and Kale. The three Saiyans resume their battle. After unsuccessfully attempting to use Instant Transmission as a strategy, Goku powers up to his Super Saiyan God form and easily overpowers Caulifla and Kale. As Goku prepares to eliminate Caulifla and Kale using a powerful Kamehameha to destroy the area of the stage they are on. But it was revealed that Champa gave Caulifla and Kale a pair of Potara earrings provided by the Sixth Universe's Supreme Kai Fuwa (フワ, Fuwa) as a last resort, using them to fuse into a single being of immense power named Kefla (ケフラ, Kefura) who proceeds to attack Goku. | |||||||

| As Vegeta continues fighting Top, Gohan and Piccolo are still fighting Saonel and Pilina while Android 17 saves Android 18 from Catopesra. Goku continues his fight with Kefla with the Zenos approving use of the Potara earrings, most of other universes deciding against using Potara fusion due to the numbers disadvantage. The Second Universe's Supreme Kai Pell (ペル, Peru) gives his Potara earrings to Rabanra (ラバンラ, Rabanra) and Zarbuto (ザーブト, Zābuto), only for the two to be caught in the path of Goku and Kefla's fight with the earrings destroyed in the process. Kefla gains the upper hand, assuming Super Sayian form while Goku powers up to Super Saiyan Blue and attempting to turn the tables with Kaio-ken. He appears to be winning, but Kefla lands a sneak attack that knocks him out of Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken. Kefla prepares to eliminate Goku, but Goku unexpectedly reawakens Autonomous Ultra Instinct again to easily dodge Kefla's attacks. | |||||||

After Goku enters his Autonomous Ultra Instinct in response to her power, Kefla responds by powering up to Super Saiyan 2 but is unable land a hit on Goku while her attacks are not strong enough to take him down. As Jiren awakens from his mediation and rejoins Top and Dyspo, Whis explains that Goku's consciously attacking prevents him from using Autonomous Ultra Instinct to its full potential. Vegeta realizes that Autonomous Ultra Instinct was the lesson Whis was teaching him and Goku, determined to master it as well. Goku realizes that he is running low on stamina, deciding to quickly end the fight as he uses Autonomous Ultra Instinct to dodge Kefla's barrage of energy attacks while charging up a Kamehameha. Despite Kefla's attempt to take him after he jumped midair, Goku uses the charged up energy to slide over Kefla's attack to launch a point-blank Kamehameha that blasts her off the field. Kefla is eliminated and split back to Caulifla and Kale while their Potara earrings shatter, leaving Saonel and Pilina as the remaining Sixth universe representatives.

| Goku is left exhausted from his battle with Kefla as the Second Universe's five remaining warriors decide to attack him as Saonel and Pilina prevent Gohan and Piccolo from interfering, Vegeta overpowering Catopesra after a failed attempt to unlock his own Autonomous Ultra Instinct. Ribrianne and Roasie launch a combined attack at Goku which is deflected by the Androids, with Android 17 facing Roasie while Android 18 battles Ribrianne who refuses to acknowledge her after learning Krillin is her husband. After the Androids execute a strategy to remove Roasie, Ribrianne reverts to Brianne de Chateau before managing to trap Android 18 while using her comrades' love to transform into a giant manifestation of her Super Ribrianne form. Android 18 almost gives up until her love for Krillin and Marron gives her the determination to break free of Super Ribrianne's trap. With Android 17's help, Android 18 blasts through Super Ribrianne's giant form and eliminates her. Brianne realizes that she lost because of Android 18's strong love for Krillin. Goku faces off against the remaining Second Universe warriors Zirloin (ザーロイン, Zāroin), Zarbuto (ザーブト, Zābuto), and Rabanra (ラバンラ, Rabanra). | |||||||

| Gohan and Piccolo learn that Saonel and Pilina are stronger that they appear as they reveal to have absorbed their kin prior to the Tournament of Power, with Gohan seeing this as an excuse to utilize lethal force without fear of disqualification due to their opponents' enhanced durability. As Goku and the Androids battle Zirloin, Zarbuto, and Rabanra, it is revealed that the Second Universe's Angel Sour (サワア, Sawā) had been broadcasting the Tournament of Power to the Second Universe populace. Brianne encourages her people into channeling their love to Zirloin, Zarbuto, and Rabanra, causing them to transform them into forms similar to the Maidens and as execute their universe's legendary technique Pretty Black Hole to immobilize Goku and the Androids as attack sinks through the tournament stage. But Goku powers up to Super Saiyan Blue and breaks through the Pretty Black Hole with a Kamehameha that eliminates the Second Universe fighters while Gohan and Piccolo blast Saonel and Pilina off the tournament stage with a powerful combo attack by Gohan's Kamehameha and Piccolo's Special Beam Cannon. With all of their fighters eliminated, both the Second and Sixth Universes are erased with Brianne leading her team in a final happy moment before they cease to be. While Beerus remains impassive over his brother's erasure, Cabba's erasure places Vegeta in a bad mood as his fight with Catopesra continues. | |||||||

| Even after Catopesra enters his ultimate mode, he barely keeps himself from being knocked off the field by Vegeta before something pushes him off. The same entity nearly does the same to Vegeta and Gohan, with Piccolo saving the latter, revealed to be an invisible fighter while attacking Android 18. The fighter is revealed to be one of the two missing Fourth Universe fighters Gamisalas (ガミサラス, Gamisarasu), who Piccolo quickly eliminates once Gohan creates a dust cloud to expose him. Undaunted, Quitela orders his remaining fighters to step up their game, Xiangca (シャンツァ, Shantsa) generating a dome that envelops the Seventh Universe team and manifests illusions of the erased universes' defeated fighters which Damom (ダモン, Damon) uses to attack through. With Seventh Universe team assuming Damom to also be invisible, Piccolo eliminates Xiangca upon seeking him but gets eliminated by Damom after his attacks failed to hit him. Android 17 eventually realizes that Damom is a fast-moving insect alien to explain how none of his team could hit him, solving the issue by having Goku repeatedly punch the tournament stage so the resulting shock waves would launch Damom into the air. Android 17 then traps Damom in a miniature force field which he kicks off the tournament stage with the Fourth Universe removed from play. With all of their fighters eliminated, a desperate Quitela tries to erase everyone before the Fourth Universe is promptly erased. | |||||||

| Following the Fourth Universe's elimination, the Third Universe's remaining fighters commence their offensive against the Seventh Universe team as Dr. Paparoni (パパロニ, Paparoni) sends Pancéa, Koitsukai, Borareta, and Biarra to attack the Saiyans. But the Androids intervene and deal with Biarra while Gohan faces the other robots so Goku and Vegeta can save their energy for the Eleventh Universe fighters. But when Biarra is eliminated, Paparoni receives orders from his universe's deities Supreme Kai Eyre and Destroyer Mule to have Pancéa, Koitsukai, and Borareta combine into stronger robot called Koiceareta (コイチアレータ, Koichiarēta). Koiceareta overpowers Gohan until Goku and Vegeta step in, distracting the robot while Gohan charges and strikes with an attack powerful enough to defeat it. With Koiceareta defeated, Paparoni refuses to surrender while declaring to unleash his universe's ultimate technique. | |||||||

| Paparoni merges with Koiceareta to transform into the gigantic Agnilasa (アニラーザ, Anirāza), the Third Universe's most powerful warrior, overwhelming the Sayians and Androids by using echolocation to detect their movements and counter their coordinated attacks. Agnilasa nearly eliminates Goku with teleported punches when Frieza intervenes and knocks him back into the tournament stage, with Goku saving Android 18 when Agnilasa attempts to eat her while Frieza is forced to join the fray. After Android 18 sacrifices herself to keep her brother from being eliminated, the remaining Seventh Universe fighters power up to their maximum levels and distract Agnilasa in a clash of attack long enough for Android 17 to pierce through Agnilasa's attack and damage his energy reactor. This enables the team to eliminate Agnilasa, reverted to his components with Eyre and Mule accepting the Third Universe's erasure with grace. The Seventh Universe's victory is short-lived when the remaining Eleventh Universe fighters step forward to challenge them. Only two universes remain with eight fighters: the Seventh Universe's Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Android 17, and Frieza and the Eleventh Universe's Jiren, Top, and Dyspo. | |||||||

| With only two universes remaining, the Grand Minister compresses the bleachers so that the remaining spectators can be close together. The final warriors begin their battle with Gohan and Android 17 against Top while Frieza battles Dyspo. Goku and Vegeta battle Jiren, who overwhelms the former with his punching barrage while Vegeta is able to dodge from analyzing Jiren's fighting pattern. He lands a solid blow to Jiren's midsection, but Jiren counters with a powerful blast that nearly knocks Vegeta off the tournament stage. Meanwhile, Frieza blocks one of Dyspo's attacks with his tail, but Dyspo uses it as leverage to injure him. Jiren disparages Vegeta for his self-righteousness, but Vegeta declares that his pride is the source of his strength. Vegeta powers up a Final Flash and goads Jiren into taking it head-on. But the attack fails to damage Jiren, who acknowledge Vegeta's strength before incapacitating him with an energy blast. | |||||||

| With Vegeta down, Goku faces off against Jiren. Meanwhile, Frieza begins fighting Dyspo seriously, while Gohan and Android 17 are outmatched against Top. Outmatched in power, Goku instead uses controlled ki blasts to create a minefield around Jiren, but it has no effect on him. Goku lures Jiren onto a large rock that extends out over the edge of the fighting stage and cuts through the rock with a Destructo Disc. This causes Jiren to fall, but Jiren is able to jump off the falling debris and flies back onto the fighting stage. Angered by his near-elimination, Jiren finally unleashes a fraction of his real power and easily overwhelms Goku with a volley of punches. The force from Jiren's volley of punches forms an energized punch that reverts Goku into his base state. Goku and Vegeta both get back up and power up to Super Saiyan Blue. Goku uses his maximum Kaio-ken beyond his previous limitations in into the Super Saiyan Blue Maximum Kaio-ken. Vegeta is able to surpass his limits by tapping into more ki in his body. Vegeta attains a transformation similar to the Ascended Super Saiyan form known as the Super Saiyan Blue Evolved. Fully powered up his maximums, Goku and Vegeta attack Jiren as a team and catch him off guard with their uncoordinated attacks. | |||||||

| As Goku and Vegeta continue fighting Jiren, Frieza breaks off his fight with Dyspo long enough to offer his services to the Eleventh Universe in return that they resurrect him with the Super Dragon Balls. When Dyspo refuses the offer, Frieza powers up to his Golden form and gains the advantage in the fight. Dyspo reveals his own ultimate technique known as the Super Maximum Light Speed Mode, which increases his power and speed even further, overwhelming Frieza enough that Gohan comes to his aid. Gohan and Frieza take on Dyspo as a team, but they have little success. Gohan develops a strategy that has Frieza use his energy to form a cage around Dyspo, which prevents him from using his high-speed attacks and allows Gohan to gain the upper hand. Unfortunately, Frieza runs out of energy. The cage dissolves before Gohan can land the finishing blow. But Gohan is able to grab Dyspo and holds long enough for Frieza to blast them off the ring, with one fighter from the remaining teams eliminated. | |||||||

| Goku and Vegeta continue their battle with Jiren, while Android 17 manages to defeat Top with Frieza's help. But Top gets back up and powers up while exhibiting the same type of energy a Destroyer possesses. Belmod reveals that Top is a candidate to succeed him as the next destroyer of the Eleventh Universe. Top unleashes his new power, which damages the fighting stage and breaks a large portion of it. Android 17 and Frieza attack Top repeatedly, but are outmatched while managing to keep themselves from being eliminated, though Top knocks out Frieza before engaging in another beam clash with Android 17. | |||||||

| Top easily overpowers Android 17's blast. Android 17 is able to evade him for a while by using the broken fighting stage to his advantage, but Top effortlessly withstands Android 17's attacks. Top prepares to eliminate Android 17 with a giant energy blast, but Frieza rejoins the battle and deflects Top's attack. Frieza uses his own energy attack to immobilize Top, which allows him and Android 17 to land numerous attacks, but none of them have any effect. Top is about to eliminate them both, when he is interrupted by Goku and Vegeta, who are still fighting Jiren. Frieza and Android 17 are hit by one of Jiren's attacks, which gives Top the opportunity to attack Vegeta instead. Top overwhelms Vegeta with his new power and states that he has cast aside everything else in order to become strong enough to win the Tournament of Power. However, Vegeta is inspired by his family, his promise to Cabba, and his Saiyan pride. Vegeta refuses to cast anything aside. Vegeta unleashes his full power and overwhelms Top. Vegeta and Top both use their ultimate attacks. Top unleashes his Energy of Destruction, while Vegeta uses the Final Explosion technique that he used against Majin Buu. Vegeta's attack overwhelms Top's attack. Vegeta blasts Top out of the fighting stage and eliminates him from the Tournament of Power. This also causes even more damage to the fighting stage. Due to Vegeta being much stronger than he was the last time he used the Final Explosion technique, he survives the blast. Vegeta's energy is almost completely drained. Android 17 also reappears, but he has been injured by Jiren's attack. Goku, Vegeta, and Android 17 all face off against Jiren, who begins to unleash his Full Power. | |||||||

| Jiren powers up to his Full Power. Goku, Vegeta, and Android 17 all attack him simultaneously, but he easily overpowers them. However, Android 17 manages to land a sneak attack and hurts Jiren. Jiren defeats Goku and Vegeta, while Frieza rejoins the fight and tries to kill Jiren in his golden form. However, Frieza is easily defeated as well and knocked out once again. Android 17 asks Jiren what his wish on the Super Dragon Balls would be. Belmod explains that Jiren's endless pursuit of strength was inspired when his parents, most of his comrades, and mentor were killed by a powerful villain. However, his abandonment by his surviving friends turned Jiren into a loner who distrusted friendship. Jiren now focuses solely on increasing his own strength. This allows Android 17 to figure out Jiren's wish, which is to resurrect his former master. Android 17 admires Jiren's human qualities, but he accuses Jiren of using the rest of his universe's team for his own ends. Jiren rebuffs him and fires a powerful energy blast down at Android 17, Goku, and Vegeta. Android 17 uses an energy barrier to hold back Jiren's blast and forms force fields around Goku and Vegeta to protect them. Android 17 unleashes all of his energy to destroy Jiren's blast, while he seemingly self-destructs. Injured and exhausted, Goku is unable to stand up. Despite his exhausted state, Vegeta manages to get up to face off against Jiren. Vegeta declares that he will defeat Jiren. | |||||||

| Vegeta prepares for a final stand against Jiren. Although Vegeta is too exhausted to turn into even a Super Saiyan, he still decides to take on Jiren. Jiren easily dodges his attacks and continues to pummel Vegeta. Jiren injures Vegeta's left eye in the process. Vegeta is knocked to the brink of elimination. Vegeta begins to think about the people in his life he cares about the most. Vegeta gets back up and continues to fight Jiren, who is impressed by Vegeta's pride. Vegeta nearly falls off the tournament stage again. Vegeta's boot catches onto a floating piece of rubble, which narrowly allows him to stay in the fight because the pieces of rubble still count as part of the tournament stage. Vegeta hears Bulma's voice urging him to fight on. Vegeta returns to fight Jiren once again. Jiren is unable to understand why Vegeta continues to fight him. Vegeta fires off a Final Flash, but Jiren is unfazed. Jiren knocks Vegeta off the tournament stage and eliminates him from the Tournament of Power. Although Vegeta is upset at being unable to last until the end, he gives Goku his remaining energy at the last second before falling off the tournament stage. Goku turns Super Saiyan Blue and begins to fight Jiren with his remaining power. Even with Vegeta's energy, Goku is still overwhelmed by Jiren. Goku is knocked back into his base form. When Goku is pushed back to the edge of the tournament stage and only one punch away from defeat, Vegeta shouts at Goku. Goku thinks about how the others have all put their faith in him. As Jiren delivers the final blow, Goku suddenly reactivates Ultra Instinct and dodges the attack. With his new power, Goku is able to effortlessly dodge Jiren's attacks and lands a heavy blow on him. Both fighters face off and prepare for their final battle. | |||||||

| Whis points out that since Goku has no allies to help him and no time to recover from the strain caused by Ultra Instinct, this will be his last chance to end the battle. Goku and Jiren resume their battle, but Goku has the same problem he experienced with Kefla. Goku is unable to attack at his full potential. Goku tries the same trick he used on Kefla by powering up a Kamehameha while dodging and firing it at Jiren, but Jiren is able to block the attack and fire his own blast right through to Goku. Belmod is confident that Goku's incomplete Ultra Instinct will not be enough to win. Vegeta points out that throughout the Tournament of Power all of the Saiyans have been able to surpass their limits and achieve higher levels of power. Belmod is worried. Belmod shouts at Jiren to finish off Goku immediately. Jiren is able to trap Goku on a single floating rock and fires a barrage of attacks down at him in an attempt to knock him out, but Goku begins blocking Jiren's attacks with his own punches. Goku lands a solid blow on Jiren. Goku unleashes all of his power, which manifests as a galaxy-like nebula encompassing the entire area below the tournament stage. Jiren gathers all of his power and launches a final blast down at Goku, but Goku suddenly transforms again and powers up immensely. Goku easily nullifies Jiren's blast and jumps back up to the tournament stage. Jiren attacks again, but Goku easily overpowers him with a flurry of punches. Whis reveals that Goku has completed his ascension. Goku's hair and eyes have turned silver. Goku has now reached Mastered Ultra Instinct. | |||||||

| Having achieved Mastered Ultra Instinct, Goku overpowers and corners Jiren, which forces Jiren to break through his own limits and power up even further to his Super Full Power. Goku and Jiren exchange attacks continuously. Despite almost being defeated twice, Goku stands up and recovers. Goku regains the edge over Jiren once again. When Jiren asks why Goku refuses to surrender, both Goku and his friends claim that the source of Goku's strength comes from the trust between him and his companions. Refusing to accept this and implications of his impending defeat, an enraged Jiren launches an attack on the bleachers in a desperate attempt to prove that friendship is meaningless. However, the attack is repelled by a furious Goku, who powers up even further and finally defeats Jiren with a Kamehameha. However, just as Goku is about to knock Jiren out, his body collapses from the strain of using Mastered Ultra Instinct for too long. Despite this opportunity, Jiren hesitates in knocking Goku off the tournament stage. Jiren leaves everyone from Universe Eleven in shock until Belmod reminds Jiren about the Super Dragon Balls and his ultimate wish. Though upset, Jiren decides to take the opportunity to eliminate Goku. Jiren admits to Goku that this was not how he wanted to win, but Goku will always live on in his memories even after he ceases to exist. Jiren blasts Goku off the tournament stage, but he is saved by Frieza. Android 17 is also revealed to have survived his apparent self-destruction. As Frieza and Android 17 prepare themselves to face Jiren, Goku writhes in pain from the aftereffects of Mastered Ultra Instinct. | |||||||

| With Goku down, Frieza and Android 17 face off against Jiren. While Frieza takes the lead in the attack, Android 17 manages to injure Jiren with another surprise attack, who collapses from exhaustion. Frieza is about to eliminate Jiren, who accepts his impending defeat, but Top calls out to Jiren and inspires him to keep fighting despite his injuries. Jiren powers up into his limit-breaking state again and fires a massive blast at Frieza and Android 17. They form an energy barrier to shield themselves, but Frieza is running low on energy and drops out of his Golden form. Before Jiren can overpower them, Goku manages to get back up and rejoins the others. Goku adds his strength to the barrier, which enables them to cancel out Jiren's blast. Goku and Frieza take on Jiren together, while Android 17 provides cover fire. Working together, Goku and Frieza overpower Jiren and tackle him off the tournament stage, which eliminates Goku, Frieza, and Jiren from the Tournament of Power. With all of their fighters defeated, Universe Eleven is erased. As the only fighter remaining on the tournament stage, Android 17 is declared the winner of the Tournament of Power. Android 17 is given the privilege of getting his wish granted from the Super Dragon Balls. After some consideration, Android 17 wishes to restore all of the universes that had been erased, which brings all their inhabitants back to life. As the erased universes are restored, the Grand Minister reveals that Present Grand Zenō and Future Grand Zenō had foreseen the outcome of a virtuous being winning the Tournament of Power who would make a selfless wish on the Super Dragon Balls. The Grand Minister also stated that if the winner had made a selfish wish instead then the Present Grand Zenō and Future Grand Zenō would have erased the entire multiverse because this would have shown that the winning universe was no better than the erased universes and that the universes excluded from the Tournament of Power were no more worthy of existing. As a reward for doing well in the Tournament of Power, Beerus asks Whis to restore Frieza to life. In Universe Eleven, Jiren establishes a real friendship with Top and looks forward to having a rematch with Goku someday. Beerus, Whis, Shin, the Elder Universe Seven Supreme Kai, Goku, and his nine team members from Universe Seven return home, with Goku vowing to defeat Frieza if he starts causing trouble again. After the credits, Goku and Vegeta meet for a sparring match in the place where they first fought. Goku and Vegeta enter their Super Saiyan Blue forms. Goku reveals that he cannot use Ultra Instinct at will. Goku believes that he obtained it by accident during the Tournament of Power. While Frieza leaves Earth and resumes leadership of his empire, Goku and Vegeta declare that they will keep finding new levels of strength. | |||||||
