A Darker Side of Dragon Ball Super
The Dragon Ball franchise is no stranger to intense battles and emotional stakes. But the fan-made story How Son Goku Became the God Killer takes things further than ever before. This reimagined version of the Battle of Gods saga flips the script into a brutal, tragic tale where loss drives Goku down a path of vengeance.
Instead of the cheerful hero we know, this Goku transforms into something far more dangerous—a God Killer.
The Familiar Beginning
The story opens much like the original arc. Goku achieves the legendary Super Saiyan God form with the help of Vegeta, Gohan, Trunks, Goten, and even Videl. His aura burns red, divine and powerful, as Beerus watches with quiet interest.
But here the story shifts. Instead of a balanced fight, Beerus overwhelms Goku instantly. The Destroyer mocks his new form, dismissing it as a mere flicker of strength. Their battle escalates into space, and Goku is beaten without mercy.
The Breaking Point – Bulma’s Death
In the most shocking twist, Beerus grows bored. Instead of destroying Earth directly, he targets Bulma.
With a casual flick of Hakai energy, Bulma is erased from existence before anyone can react. The moment is brutal, permanent, and devastating.
For Vegeta, it is the final straw. His grief explodes into a new transformation—a perfected Super Saiyan 3. His aura burns like a nuclear storm as he strikes Beerus harder than anyone believed possible.
For a heartbeat, hope flickers. Vegeta’s Final Flash engulfs Beerus, shaking the cosmos itself. But when the smoke clears, the God of Destruction emerges untouched. With one effortless strike, Beerus sends Vegeta crashing unconscious into the ruins of Orange City.
Earth’s Final Stand
With both Goku and Vegeta down, the remaining Z Fighters rise in desperation. Piccolo, Gohan, Krillin, Tien, Yamcha, Trunks, and Goten all throw themselves against Beerus’s Hakai sphere.
But one by one, they are erased. Their bravery ends in seconds.
Only Goku resists, his godly ki allowing him to hold back the sphere. But Beerus grows tired of the struggle. Enlarging the Hakai sphere beyond even a Spirit Bomb, he obliterates Earth in a blinding explosion.
The Birth of the God Killer
From the ashes, a single figure emerges. Goku survives, carrying Vegeta’s broken body. But he is forever changed.
By enduring Beerus’s Hakai, Goku absorbs its destructive essence. His form mutates into something beyond Ultra Instinct—closer to Ultra Ego. He is no longer the cheerful defender of Earth, but a cold, wrathful warrior reborn in vengeance.
His chilling words mark the dawn of a new legend:
“Beerus. Whis. Not Frieza, not Cell, not Buu ever made me feel evil like this. I swear… the gods will die.”
This is God Killer Goku.
Why This Story Stands Out
This fan retelling takes Dragon Ball into uncharted territory. By stripping away victory and forcing Goku to embrace loss and rage, it transforms him into a near-mythic figure.
It asks the question fans never dared:
What if Goku turned his power against the gods themselves?
