The Destroyer's World, Age 782.

The mighty tree stood strong, the surrounding area as perfect and lush as ever. The planet's small ecosystem was surprisingly bustling with life as Whis tended to it, "It isn't much, but it's truly honest work, what do you say, my Lord?" Whis asked as he looked to the skies...

Multiple shockwaves from seemingly nowhere were given off. Small glimpses of purple and red could be seen in the mix,

"Oh dear," Whis sighed and stared, "Seems the two are really getting into it with eachother huh? The Mighty Destroyer and the Mighty Prince of All Saiyans."

Vegeta slammed his fist into Beerus's cheek, on almost equal level with the 70% powered God, his red hair flowing as he did so. He was in the Super Saiyan God state as he fought Beerus. Vegeta's Super Saiyan God, as he dubbed the Prince's Saiyan God a couple times, had a lot more offensive qualities, first his muscles didn't slim as much, meaning he could land a hit, and a powerful blow too.

"Oh, come on, Vegeta!" Beerus shouted as he clashed with Vegeta, another shockwave being given off, "You a little shy with that Goku of yours not here to present your new forms to me?"

"I don't ever need that damned Kakarot!" Vegeta shouted as he let off a relentless barrage of punches, sending shockwaves that sent terrors through the planet. Thankfully, Whis put up a powerful barrier that uses some of his divine energy to keep the shockwaves encased to the world, and any damages he could fix with the flick of a staff.

"If you wish to see it, then so be it!" Vegeta screamed as he jumped further into the air and screamed out, his eyes turning teal, his hair reverting to brown, but growing longer, red fur covered his body and his torso armor burst open, leaving him in grey armor bottoms and boots.

"Keep me right here, Vegeta," Beerus prodded, "What's this form? Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Fur? Great Ape Super Saiyan? Monkey Saiyan?"

"This is the Primal Super Saiyan. In Universe Six, it was dubbed as the fourth Super Saiyan," Vegeta powered up further, a lava red aura appearing with a tint of gold,

"Put your own little flair on it, did we? Let's see what it has eh? Haven't had a good fight in years, and this it getting me all heated!" Beerus exclaimed as he let his aura flair, and then engaged in a clash with Vegeta.

Beerus stayed the same power range, but Vegeta's Primal Super Saiyan was filled with such Saiyan fury and ancient Saiyan power, and his Godly energy still flowing through him, he gained the frontfoot in the fight, leaving Beerus on the defensive.

"He's... powerful! He's putting me on the back burner without any problems!" Beerus thought to himself,

Vegeta suddenly swung his leg into Beerus's neck, sending him down into the ground. The prince enraged with Beerus's taunts, "Final Shine Attack!" Vegeta screamed out as he charged his cyan blast and fired it down into the ground, where Beerus was located.

Beerus didn't want his beloved planet to get ruined by this powerful blast, and had little to no time to react, and had to firm the blast, leaving him battered,

"You know, Vegeta..." Beerus rose up, his energy gaining higher and higher strength and intensity, "You're a miracle worker. You can put me down like that when I'm at seventy percent! You're going all out, aswell... Well, now, that makes two of us!"

Beerus screamed out as he reached 100% power...

Until Whis gave him a little blow to the neck, "Oh deary me, my Lord, if you use all strength, you'll send the Universe into oblivion, even with this barrier of divine energy I've erected,"

Vegeta powered down and grabbed a towel once he descended, resting it over his shoulders once wiping his forehead, "Whis," Vegeta called out as Whis walked off with Beerus in tow, "Next time, let Lord Beerus power up. I haven't had such a challenge in so long, I need to see where I need to be to be good enough to protect Earth."

Whis shook his head, "Vegeta, that's too dangerous, you'd be endangering the entire galaxy, annihilating it and sending knock-off effects through the universe. If I let him power up and you clashed once, there'd be no Earth to defend,"

Vegeta sighed and sat down on a bench, his inner demons arising. He had resumed training with Beerus recently to gain better strength to defend Earth. Piccolo and Kakarot got wiped out because they weren't strong enough to beat Lemocras, and that haunted him. Gohan could go toe to toe, and he was resuming training, but not with the right people, he needed to go to training with Beerus and Whis.

Krillin, he has much potential to be an intensely powerful individual. Tien and the others alike.

Trunks and Goten. These two have so much potential to be greater, to achieve Super Saiyan 2 and beyond, but they just don't listen! They're irrational and bothersome teenagers that don't do anything.

Though, he felt like the only one taking it seriously. He needed to just think things over. The mighty prince having doubts about his own power and ability to defend Earth, his family, his friends. He needed to defend them! This wasn't about being the strongest or being king. He left that behind a long time ago. This was about being strong enough to defeat any foe that comes their way.

"I'm good enough..." Vegeta hoped, "Bulma, Trunks, Bulla, I hope I'm strong enough for you."

He wasn't the ideal one to be Earth's Protector, in his opinion. He wasn't as happy go lucky as Goku, not as smart as Gohan, not as joyous as the others. He had pure strength. Vegeta knew he had to protect Earth, as Goku bestowed that upon him long ago, as they both protected the Earth as much as they could.

But Vegeta knew, with his now realistic point of view, not his belief about him being the greatest Saiyan to live or the strongest being, he knew that there was someone greater than him out there. Someone of evil heart, just as he once was. Someone that's greater than Kakarot.
