"Although the final outco of the battle is not shown in this specific video, a few crucial details can be revealed. Majin Buu was eventually defeated, though not by the Super Saiyan 3 transformation itself. In the process of his destruction, Mr. Satan played an indispensable role—so much so that even Son Goku hailed him as the true savior of the world."
With that final, cryptic teaser from the narrator, the video concerning Super Saiyan 3 ca to a complete end. The revelation left countless viewers across the multiverse itching with intense curiosity. How exactly was Kid Buu defeated? If the raw power of Super Saiyan 3 wasn't enough, what other thod could possibly vaporize a creature with infinite regeneration?
Most importantly, what could a man like Mr. Satan—who appeared to be nothing more than a flamboyant martial artist—have done to earn the title of "Savior" from a warrior as god-like as Goku? The audience was desperate for answers, but the screen remained dark. The missing pieces of the puzzle, including the identity of the mysterious man with "Invincible" etched into his very presence, were locked away in future uploads.
The release of that information now rested solely in the hands of Akira.
In the wake of the video, different factions within the Dragon Ball universe began to reconsider their positions. In the Kaioshin Realm, Shin, the Supre Kai, found himself surprisingly calm. He realized that the threat of Majin Buu was no longer the looming apocalypse it once was.
For one, Babidi would likely be terrified to unseal a monster that, according to the video, would eventually kill him. Furthermore, the current Goku and Gohan had not yet reached the power levels seen in the footage, making it nearly impossible for Babidi to gather the massive amounts of Ki required for the seal to break.
Even if Buu were to be released, the playing field had changed. Lord Beerus, the God of Destruction, was already awake. After seeing Buu's Tier-1 level of disrespect in the video, it was highly unlikely Beerus would sit idly by. With a God of Destruction as a safety net, the Supre Kai felt a sense of security he hadn't known in eons.
Sowhere in the depths of space, Babidi reached a similar conclusion. He had no desire to et the sa grisly end as his alternate-tiline self. He decided to postpone the unsealing until he could find a way to absolute control the monster. Besides, with the Z-Fighters currently "underpowered" compared to their future selves, the energy harvest was going slowly. He could afford to wait—Buu had been in that ball for millions of years; a few more wouldn't hurt.
anwhile, the multiverse chat was buzzing with speculation.
"Speaking of which," Sengoku mused, "is the next video going to feature Super Saiyan 4?"
Garp laughed, though he looked perplexed. "If so, it's hard to imagine what it looks like. Super Saiyan 3's hair was already long enough to trip over. Does Super Saiyan 4 just drag it along the ground like a cape?"
"I'm more interested in the power multiplier," Kakashi noted. "If the trend continues, the jump from 3 to 4 must be astronomical."
Just as the curiosity reached a fever pitch, a new title card shimred into existence: "The Primal Evolution with the Greatest External Change — Super Saiyan 4!"
The viewers were montarily stunned before the questions began to pour in. The ntion of a "Great Ape Transformation" within the title was particularly confusing. They rembered the very first video explaining how Saiyans turned into massive, rampaging Great Apes under a full moon. Was this new form a regression to that primal state, or sothing entirely new?
Before they could spiral further into theory, the narrator's voice resonated across the dinsions once more.
"To understand Super Saiyan 4, we must first discuss a fundantal concept of the Dragon Ball Multiverse: Parallel Tilines. While there is a Main Tiline—the one where the events of the previous videos took place—there are also countless branching realities."
"Parallel Tilines are born when significant events deviate from the Main Tiline's path. For example, consider the Cell Saga. If Future Trunks had never traveled back in ti to warn the Z-Fighters, the Main Tiline would have eventually beco the desolate Future Tiline. However, because he interfered, the Androids were defeated and a new future was born. This created a split, where the original Future Tiline and the new peaceful tiline exist simultaneously as Parallel Realities."
In the Dragon Ball world, Krillin spoke up, his voice tinged with realization. "So... by learning about our future through these videos and changing our actions, we've already created a bunch of new Parallel Tilines?"
"I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing," Piccolo muttered, his arms crossed over his chest.
"It shouldn't be that bad, right?" Yamcha added sheepishly. "There are already so many of them; a few more won't hurt anyone."
Tien Shinhan nodded. They couldn't exactly let Dr. Gero finish his work just to keep the tiline "pure." The damage—or change—was already done.
While the Z-Fighters were relaxed about the chanics of ti, viewers from other worlds were having existential crises. Those from the Ultraman universes were accustod to the concept, having traveled between dinsions themselves. But for those from "everyday" worlds where Parallel Tilines were rely science fiction, the confirmation was earth-shattering.
They began to wonder: Did their worlds have duplicates? Was there another version of them out there, living a different life? And most importantly, in these other Saiyan tilines, would they see a version of Goku and Gohan that they didn't recognize?
