Chapter 10: A Battle Like No Other

Korn looked at Goku in shock. "What...are you?!" he asked. Vegeta laughed. "Kakarot's finally done it. He's learned to transform into Ultra Instinct on his own."

"Ultra Instinct?! What nonsense! It is highly difficult even for Gods to attain it. A mere Saiyan cannot do this!"

"Oh, this is not the first time he has attained this form." Vegeta said with a smirk. "You're scared, aren't you? Well, you should be. For Kakarot has mastered Ultra Instinct too. I can see that his power is as high as yours but the abilities the form has will put you at a great disadvantage." Korn bellowed in anger. "I shall not lose!"

He swung a punch towards Goku. Goku's body reacted instantly, dodging the punch with ease. Korn aimed a kick at Goku's stomach but Goku just caught the leg and swung it away. "You cannot beat me now." he said. "Give up while you still can."

"Never!" Kon shouted. He swung a series of blows towards Goku. Goku kept dodging them. Then suddenly, Goku attacked. But Korn's eyes were still sharp enough to sense it and dodge a little. Goku's hand only grazed Korn. Korn and Goku began throwing a seies of blows toward each other. Goku could dodge all of Korn's attacks but whenever Goku attacked, Korn's eyes were sharp enough to see it.

Korn punched, Goku dodged, Goku punched, Korn barely dodged. Finally Korn screamed in rage and put all his ki into his fist. Now his hand was stronger, and faster. Goku dodged but Korn changed the direction of the punch toward Goku as his arm was now faster. Korn's punch grazed Goku and a line of blood trickled down Goku's face from his cheek.

"I think it's time I fight seriously." Goku said. "You weren't fighting seriously?!" Korn punched Goku again but this time, Goku was not there. Korn looked around. He could still sense the immense power coming from Goku. His eyes looked behind him and he could see Goku looking right at him. Goku raised his hand. Suddenly, Korn was in pain. Ultra Instinct Goku had hit him five times in the back but all Korn had seen was him raising his arm.

Goku now had full advantage. He thrashed Korn. "You will not destroy the Universes. You are gonna hurt my friends! I shall never forgive you for that!" Goku screamed. Jiren suddenly, was conscious. Those words...the last two lines...He had heared them before. He looked around to see Goku punching Korn here and there...in his Ultra Instinct form.

Jiren smiled. "So, Goku. You grow ever so strong. I too am interested in having a rematch." Korn was down. He was floating here and there but he was still conscious. "The World of Void." he said. "That's where we are aren't we? So I lost. A Saiyan beat me. At least my wish will be fulfilled." Saying this, Korn began to produce a lot of energy. His Ki turned yellow and some sort of circle formed around him. Vegeta knew what was happening. "Kakarot!" He screamed. "Good bye Saiyans! Hope you rot in Hell. Well, if there is one." With that Korn screamed one last time and exploded.

Goku opened his eyes. Vegeta and Jiren looked at him. "What happened?" His body was still glowing in the aura of Ultra Instinct. "Korn."

"He's dead." Whis said. "He blew himself up. Just like how Vegeta had. But Super Saiyan Blue Evolution had saved him that time. Korn couldn't save himself." Goku looked up. Everything was pitch black except for the light of the shield Whis had put up. The colours of the World of Void were nowhere to be seen. "Where are we?" Vegeta asked. "I thought we were in the World of Void."

"We are at this point, nowhere."

"What do you mean?" Jiren asked. "When Korn blew himself up, he destroying the World of Void. You can call the World of Void as the heart of the Universes. Without the heart, the body is destroyed." Whis said. "I don't understand." Vegeta said. "What is this leading to? Spit it out, dammit!"

"Korn got what he wanted. His wish came true. All the Universes...are destroyed."

"WHAT!" Vegeta exclaimed. Jiren looked in horror. "The Zenos are still alive somewhere but everything else is dead. All the angles too. If anyone of will step out of this shield, we will die." Goku was silent. "Whis." he finally said. "You know what to do."

"Yes. Three minutes." he said. "Goku nodded. "This is just like the time Frieza blew up the Earth." Vegeta scoffed. Whis tapped his staff down twice and time rewinded itself.

Goku was now once again, standing in front of of Korn, who was floating here and there. "At least my wish will be fulfilled." Korn said his last line. "KA...ME...HA...ME..." Korn looked up to see Goku ready to fire a Kamehameha. "You bastard! You'll ruin everything I worked for!" he screamed. "HA!" Ultra Instinct Goku released a Kamehameha that his Korn bang-on.

Korn seemed to struggle a bit but then became stable. "I can take this!" he said. "GALICK..." Korn heard Vegeta shout as a purple ki ball began forming in between his palms. Vegeta was still in base form but Korn knew that he would find it difficult with two beams. "GUN!" Vegeta's famous Galick Gun hit Korn from the side. Korn nearly collapsed but managed to hold on. "I CAN...TAKE THIS!" he screamed. "JUSTICE BEAM!" Jiren fired one of Toppo's famous attacks. Korn was crushed but he had somehow still managed to hold out the three beams. The colours of the World of Void were changing. "Everyone! One last push!" Goku screamed. All three of them increased their power even more. "HA!" They screamed.

Korn couldn't hold it. "DAMMIT!" he screamed as his body was destroyed from all sides. The three beams met. It was a spectacular display. Soon they powered down. Jiren looked up. "My friends..and family. It is done. Rest in peace."

"Well done, Goku. Tell me, how were you able to attain Ultra Instinct?" Whis asked. "It was tough, but I managed to avert my thoughts from everything to my body. It took some time, but I managed."

"Yes, in the future, it will be easier for you to enter this mode, Goku. If you turn of Ultra Instinct, you know what happens." Goku nodded. "The toll of trying to reach the power of the Gods." he said. Whis nodded. "It will not be as effective as last time, though. Gradually, everytime you attain Ultra Instinct, your body will get used to the pain until finally, you won't feel it at all."

Goku nodded and turned of Ultra Instinct. Instantly, he was in pain. But Whis was right. It was not as much as last time. Together, they all went to Capsule Corp.

Bulma and Chichi rushed up to Vegeta and Goku respectively and hugged them. "Ow! We're hurt!" Goku said. "You did it!" Trunks shouted. A wonderful meal was made for the fighters. The Saiyans ate like Saiyans as usual but it was really funny to see Jiren eat. He took a piece of takoyaki and put it in his mouth. "The taste of Earth is delicious. You are talented cooks." he said to Bulma and Chichi. "Oh stop being so formal, Jiren." Goku said. "Just relax."

"Relax." Jiren hadn't heard the word in a long time. He sighed and smiled. "If you say so." The party went on for a long time until Jiren finally decided to go back to his Universe. "I have work there." he said.

Belmod's Planet was restored to its former glory. "I shall be retiring soon." he said. "In few years time, Toppo shall take my place." Goku was once again taken to the Omni-kings. He tapped into Ultra Instinct in front of them and made the happy. Later, the Grand Priest called Goku. "Goku, a word." he said. "Goku walked over and asked. "What's up?"

"I must say, you surprise me. You really have exceeded your limits. All I want to say is that...I'm proud of you. I know I have been hard on you so forgive me. It seems that I should not underestimate mortals." the Grand Priest smiled. Goku chuckled.

Back at Capsule Corp. Goku and Vegeta stood looking at the full moon. Of course, they couldn't turn into Great Apes. "So, Kakarot. You've surpassed me once again." Vegeta said. "Don't worry. I'll catch up!" he smiled.

Goku, Vegeta and Jiren defeated Korn together. Gohan is training to surpass the limits of his power. Pan and Bulla are growing up. Goten and Trunks still have further to go. Caulifla, Kale, Cabba and Hit are training at Champa's Palace. Toppo shall become the next God of Destruction of Universe 11. What shall happen at the ceremony? Evil eyes are watching.
