Chapter 54 Recognition

Vegeta looks up at Beerus and has a flashback from when he was a child. In his flashback, Beerus is shown resting his foot on King Vegeta's head and pushing down on it, angry that he didn't get the most comfortable pillow on the planet and that King Vegeta used it for himself.

Bulma appears and sees Vegeta on the ground with Whis and Beerus and asks who they are. She is told by Beerus and Whis that Vegeta is their friend.

Bulma walks over and greets them, welcoming them to join them at the party.

Vegeta has to make sure nobody angers Beerus, or the Earth will be destroyed.

As Beerus and Whis are on the cruise ship, people introduce themselves to Beerus, like Yamcha, who tells Beerus that he's the strongest out of everybody and slaps him hard on the back.

This worries Vegeta, who thinks that even the slightest mistake can cost the Earth.

Eero was sitting beside the sweets table, eating the cake while watching the show funnily. 'How ironic, a God of Destruction acting like a child,' he thought to himself.

...

Next, Krillin serves Beerus Russian Takoyaki Balls filled with wasabi instead of octopus in it.

This also distresses Vegeta, who lashes out at Krillin for doing idiotic things that might anger Beerus. To make up for the incident from earlier, Vegeta serves Beerus a fresh batch of octopus balls.

As Beerus is about to eat one, Goten and Trunks come from around the corner and accidentally spray Beerus with water during their water gun match.

They apologize and run off, but Beerus becomes infuriated anyway and rises above the ship as if he were about to charge his ki to destroy Earth.

Vegeta panics and dives into the sea to grab an octopus, who blasts it into several pieces and cooks and prepares it for Beerus.

Beerus calms down and states to Whis that he can't be angry in that kind of atmosphere. Whis asks Beerus if he has tried pudding before, who tells him that it was delicious and points to where it is.

Beerus goes over to Buu and asks if he could share some pudding with him, who bitterly declines to share any. Beerus gets frustrated with Buu, with Mr. Satan attempting to console Beerus for his friend's selfish actions.

Buu and Beerus both tell him to get out of the way, and they confront each other, face to face.

Buu starts jabbing Beerus without him even flinching or moving. Beerus grabs his final punch and clenches it, twisting and contorting Buu, sending him flying into the sky before appearing behind him and grabbing his antenna.

Beerus twists Buu around again before firing a beam directly at him, sending him into the sea.

Vegeta also tries to comfort Beerus and offers to make him more pudding but is told to leave.

As Whis is eating food served by the chef, he is completely oblivious to the events happening until Beerus calls out to Whis, asking if they can blow up the Earth and leave, to which Whis asks for more time as he is too busy enjoying the delicacies prepared by the chef.

Goten and Trunks perform the Fusion Dance in an effort to stop Beerus from annihilating Earth.

Beerus calls Gotenks a child, but Gotenks retaliates by berating him for being such a child for making a big deal over not getting any pudding.

Beerus then goes on a rant about how they probably eat it all the time while he had never tried it before.

Beerus slaps Gotenks on the arm multiple times, causing a huge red bump to form on his right arm. Piccolo, Tien Shinhan, and Android 18 all attempt to stop Beerus after he declares he will destroy Earth.

They all fail, and Gohan realizes how great the enemy they were fighting is. Majin Buu then comes from behind but is sensed by Beerus before he can land a hit and is once again defeated by Beerus.

Dende, shriveling in fear, tells Piccolo that the reason he is so frightened is that he senses Godly ki coming from Beerus.

Gohan powers up and charges at Beerus but is knocked back down after Beerus uses Majin Buu as a weapon of sorts.

Vegeta realizes he should be trying to help out, that he is the Prince of all Saiyans, and turns Super Saiyan.

Vegeta bursts towards Beerus but is disposed of just as easily as everyone else. Beerus places his foot on Vegeta's head, whose skull is crushed like his father's was.

As Beerus is about to kill Vegeta, Bulma walks over and slaps Beerus, upset at how he ruined her party.

Beerus turns around and slaps her back, knocking her away from the brute force. After witnessing this, Vegeta crouches down and clutches his head in mental pain after seeing his wife get slapped and hurt.

Vegeta becomes enraged, and during the transformation, he temporarily loses his irises, similar to Future Trunks' Super Saiyan Third Grade form.

He transforms into a Super Saiyan 2, signified by electricity sparks and even longer and spikier hair.

During Vegeta's fight with Beerus, he manages to land a few punches on Beerus and release a Galick Gun at Beerus, which Beerus struggles to defend himself against but eventually overwhelms Vegeta.

Beerus offers one last chance to the inhabitants of Earth, asking Oolong, whom he calls the pink pig, to have a rock-paper-scissors with him. Oolong loses, and Puar is fuming angry with him for showing scissors every turn.

After winning the contest, Beerus announces that he is leaving with Whis, who was finally ready to leave, and destroying Earth. As he charges a purplish variant of the energy sphere.

"Whis, tell me, can the God of Destruction destroy the planet where a candidate of the next God of Destruction resides?" At this moment, a voice sounded.

Whis's and Beerus's eyes shrank and turned to the corner, looking at Eero sitting there eating a chocolate cake while watching them.

Other Z warriors boarding the cruise also turned and gazed at him in surprise.

"Oh, you are?" Whis appeared beside Eero, started looking at him from around, then raised his staff, seeing something on the gem above.

Surprised, then Whis replied with a smile,

"It's interesting you have an angel recognition; have you met her somewhere? I didn't expect she would choose a candidate from this universe. Beerus-sama, it looks like you can't destroy this planet."

Z warriors were shocked, including King Kai and Supreme Kai; everyone was confused.
