Chapter 119: Like Father, Like Son – The Birth of Super Saiyan 5 Burdock!!

"Hey, what's going on?"

Zeno's eyes widened as Burdock's sudden surge of power caught his attention.

He had been watching Goku's battlefield, but now his focus shifted entirely to Burdock.

The Grand Priest observed Burdock in the ring and commented, "It seems he is undergoing another transformation. Saiyans possess the ability to evolve their strength through transformations."

"A new transformation? I'm excited! What will it look like?" Zeno's enthusiasm grew as he leaned forward.

"Here it comes…"

Beerus' mouth twitched slightly. Even he, a God of Destruction, felt the terrifying aura radiating from Burdock's body.

Clearly, this new transformation was more than just a simple power boost—it was a monumental leap forward.

Vados narrowed her eyes and smiled. "It looks like Father-in-law Burdock is finally unveiling the results of his intense training over the past year."

In the Arena

As Burdock's power continued to skyrocket, the expressions on the Pride Troopers' faces grew serious.

And then—

Kahn's eyes flashed. "It's happening!"

The moment he spoke, Burdock let out a deep roar. Instantly, a jet-like golden aura exploded around him, spiraling into the sky.

His energy skyrocketed.

Dark red lightning crackled around his body, flickering like an untamed storm.

RUMBLE!

Not just the arena—the very World of Void trembled violently under Burdock's overwhelming power.

Everyone—gods, mortals, warriors alike—witnessed Burdock's black, shoulder-length hair growing wildly before their eyes.

And then—

Silver strands mixed into his mane.

His transformation wasn't stopping. The golden energy flame surrounding him kept expanding, signifying that his strength was still increasing.

Finally—when Burdock's power reached an entirely new dimension—his transformation was complete.

Now, standing before the warriors of all universes was a form beyond Super Saiyan 4—

Super Saiyan 5!

Super Saiyan 5 Burdock was born!

"Whoa!!"

"That looks so cool!" Zeno exclaimed, eyes sparkling.

The Grand Priest nodded slightly, a rare expression of intrigue on his face. "With this transformation, contestant Jiren may be in trouble."

The Shocked Reactions of the Gods

"What is this power?!"

"This… this isn't something mortals should be capable of!"

"Did I hear wrong just now? Kahn called him father… Like father, like son!"

"Even Gods would tremble before this level of power!"

The divine beings in the stands were left speechless by the sheer magnitude of Burdock's new transformation.

"This isn't good," murmured Belmod, Universe 11's God of Destruction.

Marcarita raised an eyebrow. "Oh my, it looks like Jiren is in trouble, dear."

"Tch! It's bad enough that Kahn is so ridiculously strong, but now his father is this powerful too?!" Belmod clenched his fists in frustration.

Supreme Kai Khai, however, remained dismissive. Adjusting his glasses, he said, "Jiren is the strongest mortal in the multiverse. There's no one who can stand against him."

Marcarita turned to him, her voice calm yet sharp. "Supreme Kai, it seems you still don't understand the situation. Right now, Mr. Burdock is likely equal to—or even stronger than—Jiren."

Belmod's expression darkened further. "Damn it… we have no choice but to trust Jiren now!"

Meanwhile, in the Universe 7 spectator area—

"YAHOO!!"

Beerus shot up from his seat, ecstatic. "That's Lord Kahn's father for you! Beat those Universe 11 punks to a pulp!"

Whis chuckled. "Impressive. Super Saiyan 5… I must admit, this transformation is remarkable."

Vados nodded. "According to Kahn, this form is called Super Saiyan 5."

In the Arena

Now fully transformed, Burdock's piercing, hawk-like silver eyes locked onto Jiren.

"This… is my power beyond limits."

Clenching his fists, Burdock took a deep breath.

Even after a year of training, he knew that Super Saiyan 5 was an unstable form.

His body could only sustain it for ten minutes at most.

Any longer, and he risked severe damage—or even death.

Yet, for now—ten minutes would be more than enough.

Burdock vs. Jiren – The Clash Begins!

"It's just a small boost in power."

Jiren remained composed, though deep down, he was re-evaluating Burdock's strength.

If he could ignore Super Saiyan 4 before, now he had no choice but to take Super Saiyan 5 seriously.

Burdock smirked slightly. He didn't need to talk.

He needed to fight.

BOOM!

Before Jiren could react—Burdock's fist sank deep into his gut!

"GUH—!!"

The force of the blow forced Jiren's eyes wide open as he staggered back uncontrollably.

"JIREN?!"

Toppo and Dyspo were shocked.

This was the first time they had seen Jiren actually take damage before he could react!

"Too… too fast!!" Dyspo muttered, wiping sweat from his brow.

"You mean even you couldn't see it?!"

The rest of the Pride Troopers were stunned.

Dyspo, known for his supersonic combat speed, could normally perceive and react to thousands of attacks in a fraction of a second.

Yet, even he couldn't track Burdock's movements!

Jiren Fights Back – But Can He Keep Up?

Jiren steadied himself, his eyes narrowing.

Burdock's attack hurt.

He couldn't deny it.

For the first time in this tournament—Jiren entered his serious stance.

Burdock's silver eyes gleamed.

"Too slow."

BOOM!

Before Jiren could counter, Burdock blitzed behind him!

Jiren barely managed to raise his arms in time—but even then, he was sent flying backward!

The impact shattered the ground beneath him.

Even as Jiren regained his footing, Burdock vanished—reappearing in front of him again.

BOOM!

Another devastating strike!

Jiren barely blocked the attack, but the sheer force caused the arena beneath his feet to crack.

Even the indestructible Tournament of Power ring…

Was beginning to break under the power of Super Saiyan 5 Burdock!
