Dragon Ball: Kaizen – Chapter 10 "Ultra Instinct vs. God’s Wrath – Goku’s Ultimate Challenge!"

The universe itself trembled.

Kaizen's new form radiated a terrifying presence. His entire body was engulfed in black and red divine energy, the mark having spread across his chest, arms, and even his face. His crimson aura crackled, bending the very fabric of space.

Goku floated in front of him, calm yet focused. His silver aura flickered gently, like a flame in the wind, but his stance never wavered.

This wasn't just a fight anymore.

This was a battle of gods.

Kaizen grinned. "Your Ultra Instinct is impressive, Goku… but it has a flaw."

Goku's silver eyes studied him. "Oh yeah?"

Kaizen vanished.

BOOM!

In an instant, Kaizen appeared behind Goku and drove his fist into Goku's back.

A shockwave erupted.

Goku's body jerked forward, but—

He didn't react.

Instead, he flowed with the attack, twisting midair and delivering a counter-kick straight to Kaizen's ribs.

CRACK!

Kaizen winced, sliding backward, but his grin never faded.

"See? You react. But I…"

Kaizen raised his hand. His aura pulsed.

"I control."

Suddenly—Goku's entire body froze.

His eyes widened slightly. "What—?!"

Kaizen smirked. "My power isn't just strength or speed… It's control over all forces. Gravity, time, space—everything."

Goku gritted his teeth. His body felt like it was being compressed under a mountain. Even with Ultra Instinct, he couldn't move.

Kaizen tilted his head. "I told you—your instincts make you react. But against an opponent who controls the battlefield…"

He clenched his fist.

"You lose."

Goku's body plummeted to the ground, slamming into the planet's core. The entire world quaked, massive cracks forming across its surface.

Vegeta, watching from afar, clenched his fists. "Damn it… Kakarot!"

Smoke and debris filled the sky.

Kaizen exhaled, his glowing red eyes narrowing. "It's over."

But then—

A faint light flickered in the crater.

A soft, calm breeze flowed through the battlefield.

And then—

A voice.

"…Nah."

Kaizen's eyes widened.

From the rubble, a silver glow emerged.

Goku floated up, completely unharmed. His aura had changed—it was no longer just Ultra Instinct.

It was something beyond it.

Kaizen took a step back. "…Impossible."

Goku opened his eyes.

They weren't silver anymore.

They were white.

He slowly raised his hand, and with the slightest motion—

Kaizen's gravity hold on him shattered.

"…Now it's my turn."
