Spoilers ahead

As Whis rouses Beerus from his slumber, the God of Destruction awakens to the startling news that Goku, a mortal warrior with an incredible capacity for growth, has defeated Frieza. This revelation intrigues Beerus, particularly due to a prophecy from thirty-nine years ago spoken by an Oracle Fish, which foretold the arrival of a potent adversary named the Super Saiyan God. Compelled by this prophecy, Beerus ventures to locate Goku on King Kai’s planet. Upon his arrival, Goku eagerly challenges Beerus to a fight. However, despite his valiant effort and a brief transformation into Super Saiyan 3, Goku is easily overpowered, leaving Beerus disheartened and prompting him to continue his search for worthy opponents.
