The All-Purpose "What-If " Thread

[TheUltimateNinja]

Could you please elaborate on why Goku Black would be okay after eating the food of the Supreme Kai of Time, why a Future Gohan that would even be stronger than he was against Future Androids 17 and 18 would be in trouble especially if he has Future Trunks with him against the likes of Mecha Frieza, Fourth Form Cooler, and King Cold, and did you really see the livestream in time yesterday?!

1) He's a God so he's most likely unaffected by most things, he would likely simply be annoyed.

2) 5th Form Cooler is considerably stronger than Frieza and Cold so Gohan would most likely sacrifice himself against Cooler to protect Trunks.

1) Beerus was shown to be affected by Chronoa's cooking.

2) Even in his Fifth Form, Cooler would not be able to beat Super Saiyan Future Gohan.

1) Beerus' whole thing is food, though, it's just a gag scene. A serious guy like Black would most likely just shrug it off.

2) 5th form Cooler is stronger than Gohan. Trunks had already reached Gohan's level when he arrived to the past and Yardrat Goku was even stronger than him, Goku would have gotten even stronger than that training until the time Cooler arrived, plus he got a Zenkai in the movie which increased his power level to the extent that Cooler thought his Kaioken had enough power to beat Frieza. So, his base vs Cooler would be at least 7 million and his SSJ would be 350 million, so Cooler's 5th form is around ~280-300 million at least, which would be far above Gohan.

1) Wrong, the cooking of the Supreme Kai of Time would render Goku Black incapacitated from stomach cramps.

2) Cooler would have needed to become Meta-Cooler in order to really be a threat to Super Saiyan Future Gohan.

1) Black is too OP for cooking to damage him. Even Future Zamasu can easily tank Chronoa's cooking.

2) Future Gohan lost to Future 17 who was using only 50% of his power, he's pretty weak.

What if Vegeta didn't fall for Semi-Perfect Cell's trick and killed him, rather than letting him absorb Lazuli?

Goku wouldn't die and Gohan wouldn't go SSJ2, SSJ3 probably wouldn't be discovered

[Hellspawn28]

Didn't Babidi come to Earth because he detected high power levels? If they don't get strong enough, Babidi won't come.

But the threats following them would.

Well, yeah.

There's Broly, Lychee, Janemba, and Hirudegarn to take care of.

If King Kai lives, Bojack stays sealed away...

Well if we want to go by the main series enemies, Beerus probably won't bother to fight with Goku. Freeza probably never be that strong in a timeline where #17 & #18 never got awaken. No Buu = No Freeza training for four months. Goku and Vegeta would never train with Whis, meaning that we would never have the Champpa arc. Zamasu would never know about Goku and have no reason to hate mortals. Dabra and Babidi would show up later similar how they did in Trunks timeline.

What if Piccolo stayed in the after life after being killed in the Saiyan Arc?

1) What if Son Goku, Vegeta, Son Gohan, Son Goten, Trunks, and Future Trunks discovered Super Saiyan 3 during the years following the Cell Games?

2) What if following the Majin Buu Saga, the six Saiyans then discovered Super Saiyan 4 around the time of the Dragon Ball: Yo! Son Goku And His Friends Return! Television Special?

3) What if these same Z Fighters then had participated in the Universe 6 vs. Universe 7 Tournament For Earth Saga after receiving the same training Son Goku and Vegeta had gone through after both the Battle of Gods and Resurrection F Sagas?

4) What if Bardock in his Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 2 incarnation from after he had defeated Mira had been transported to when Goku Black was just about to kill Future Bulma? WIth the father of Goku managing to save her from the evil Demon of Despair?

What if Gohan went Pseudo Super Saiyan (25x boost) when Frieza shot a Death Beam through Piccolo?

Scenario A - 19 has no backup programming to respond to Gero being killed and thus is defeated by either Vegeta and/or Piccolo, ending the Android threat right then and there. Future Trunks might still find Gero's lab to shut down 17 and 18 in his timeline but he'd be killed by Cell without any training in the ROSAT. If Trunks finds no plans to take out 17 and 18, he could stay behind and train anyway thus possibly attaining enough power to kill the future Androids, Cell included.

Cell already travel back in time before Dr. Gero and #19 arrived. I think if Piccolo does not fused with Kami in Scenario A, Cell could find the Dragon Balls to restore Dr. Gero's lab and absorb #17 & #18 if they shut down #17 and #18 in the main timeline. If Kami does sense Cell and fuses Piccolo, I think Cell would try to blow himself up knowing that he travel into the past for nothing.

The Cell of Future Trunks' timeline would still grow up and kill him though.

What if Gohan went Pseudo Super Saiyan (25x boost) when Frieza shot a Death Beam through Piccolo?

The evil Frieza would have had likely still caused Krillin to die before he would even notice the son of Goku having transformed into a False Super Saiyan, and because of his own cruel and sadistic ways, the monster would have had to deal with both Super Saiyan Goku and False Super Saiyan Gohan at the same time.

Would Frieza be able to destroy Namek?

Would Gohan let him reach full power?

Would Gohan let him reach full power?

1) No, for either Super Saiyan Goku or False Super Saiyan Gohan would have killed him.

2) With his rage unleashed in a near-blind fury, Gohan would have had killed Frieza in only seconds.

Not much would change as Gohan would be too weak to make a difference.

1) FSSJ Gohan would get oneshotted by Frieza, he's much too weak to do anything.

2) Gohan's biggest rage boost against Frieza was at maximum only about 1.6 million or so, with FSSJ he would only be 40,000,000 even with rage boost, even 50% Frieza could wreck him easily.

What if, during Bardock's last stand, Gine fled Planet Vegeta in a pod?

What changes?

Absolutely nothing, she ends up on some random planet and eventually dies.

Another what-if!:

What if Goku, Suno, and Eighter had gone to Dr. Gero, rather than Dr. Flappe, to get Eighter's bomb removed?
