"Surpass Even a God! Vegeta's Life-Risking Blow!!" is the one hundred and twenty-sixth episode of the Japanese animated television series Dragon Ball Super. The episode first aired in Japan on Fuji TV on 04 February 2018, receiving a ratings share of 4.8%. It was written by Ayumu Hisao and directed by Takao Iwai.

Synopsis

The cornered Toppo utilizes his true power as a candidate for God of Destruction. No. 17 and Freeza desperately battle against him, No. 17 by using rocks to attack, and Freeza by using his psychic powers. However, both are downed by Toppo's counterattack. He backs Jiren up to attack Vegeta. However, Vegeta likewise challenges Jiren with a nonstop full-power attack. Goku and Vegeta draw near while keeping up their rush attack against Jiren, the arena collapses, and things become one big free-for-all! Who will be the victor?!

Summary

No. 17 refuses to give up despite Toppo's overwhelming new God of Destruction powers. The two fire blasts at each other, but Toppo's Destruction Energy quickly nullifies No. 17's blast, and he follows up with a volley of Justice Flashes. No. 17 runs and tries to hide behind some rubble, but Toppo quickly tracks him down, using his Destruction Energy to clear a path straight through the rubble. Seeing how the rest of the rubble crashes down afterwards, No. 17 hides again, but this time manages to bury Toppo beneath a pile of rubble as it comes crashing down.

However, Toppo wastes no time in using his Destruction Energy to blast his way out, and attacks No. 17 with a flurry of regular ki blasts. In order to avoid destroying No. 17 himself (and thereby getting disqualified), Toppo charges up a large regular ki ball to finish him off, but Freeza suddenly reappears and blows up Toppo's ki ball before it can hit No. 17. In return for the rough treatment he received from Toppo earlier, Freeza uses his paralysis powers to stop Toppo from moving, then hurls rocks at him via telekinesis. Toppo though remains unharmed and breaks free, forcing No. 17 and Freeza to shower him with ki blasts.

Even this is no use against Toppo, who assures them there is no way they can win now that he has the Power of Destruction. Toppo prepares to knock the two of them out of bounds, saying they should be grateful for not being destroyed. Suddenly Toppo is hit by a few stray blasts from Goku, Vegeta, and Jiren's fight. Still in the heat of battle, the three have coincidentally drawn near the spot where Toppo and co. stand. Jiren fires another blast, and while Goku and Vegeta manage to dodge, it hits Freeza and No. 17 head-on.

Jiren and Toppo wordlessly come to an understanding, and Toppo goes after Vegeta as his next opponent, overwhelming him with a barrage of Justice Flashes. In the bleachers, the Universe 7 team is concerned about Goku and Vegeta being split up like this; now that they're no longer able to team up against Jiren, the situation looks grim. Vegeta fires a Final Flash at Toppo, but he nullifies it with Destruction Energy. Vegeta may have powered up, but Toppo remains unimpressed. For his part, Vegeta can tell Toppo is far stronger than he was before, but he is still determined to win and keep his promise to Cabba and the others.

Vegeta points out how Toppo has switched from talking about "justice" all the time to now talking about "destruction". Toppo says he doesn't need justice if it can't protect his universe, and laughs at Vegeta's promise to his fellow Saiyans. He claims Vegeta will never win without casting aside such pointless things, and hurls a large ki blast at him. As the attack bears down on him, Vegeta reflects on how he cannot cast aside his family, Cabba and the others, his promise, or his pride as a Saiyan. He's different than Toppo!

With new determination, Vegeta beats back Toppo's blast and begins a fierce counterattack. In the bleachers, Dispo and Vermoud are shocked to see Toppo getting knocked around. Vermoud tells Toppo to just start destroying all of Vegeta's attacks, as long as he avoids killing Vegeta. Toppo fires away, but Vegeta continues to dodge his attacks and beat him up, saying he won't lose to someone who couldn't protect their own pride.

Vegeta promises to hit Toppo with an attack too powerful for him to destroy, and begins charging up a tremendous amount of ki around himself. Piccolo recognizes this technique as the same one Vegeta used when he sacrificed his life against Majin Boo. Toppo counters by charging up a gigantic ball of Destruction Energy and the two attacks struggle against each other, but in the end Vegeta's energy is indeed too much for Toppo to destroy, and he is overwhelmed by the explosion. Toppo materializes in the bleachers, where Dispo and Cae can't believe he lost. Vermoud remains silent, while Markarita thanks Toppo for a job well done.

The Great Priest formally announces Toppo's elimination, while the Omni-Kings chatter about how much they enjoyed the fight. Piccolo thinks that Vegeta has truly sacrificed his life to defeat Toppo, but they soon see that he is still alive and well inside the arena, although he has reverted to his base form. With Super Saiyan Blue and beyond, Vegeta has grown vastly stronger than he was back when he died using that same technique against Boo, so his body is now able to withstand it. However, Beerus points out that while he may have survived, Vegeta has used up all his power and can barely remain on his feet.

No. 17 emerges from some rubble, and everyone is glad to see that he survived too (Freeza is still nowhere to be seen, though). Now only Jiren remains as Universe 7's final opponent. Jiren is disappointed in his teammates, and congratulates Vegeta on defeating Toppo; he's impressed Vegeta could be so powerful without casting all else aside. As the others look on, Jiren begins powering up to unleash his hidden power.

Four minutes remain in the Tournament of Power.
