			Gowasu wonders why Shin didn’t learn about the Potara earrings’ time limit from his master. Shin replies that the [[Universe 7]] [[Dai Kaiōshin]] was an extremely laid-back person and might not have even known that the Potara were a fusion tool, considering that he fought and ultimately ended up absorbed by [[Majin Boo]] without ever merging with anyone.

"'''The Potara's True Worth'''" is the twenty-third chapter of the ''[[Dragon Ball Super (manga)|Dragon Ball Super]]'' manga series written and illustrated by [[Toyotarō]], with supervision and guidance from original ''[[Dragon Ball (manga)|Dragon Ball]]'' author [[Akira Toriyama]]. It was first published in Japan in the June 2017 issue of [[Shueisha]]'s ''[[V-Jump]]'', with a sale date of '''21 April 2017'''. This chapter was the first to be published in English by [[Viz Media]] on the same day as the Japanese release.

==Summary==
[[Goku]] and [[Vegeta]] now face off against a [[Potara]] fusion of [[Goku Black]] and [[Future Zamasu|Zamasu]]. It appears as if Goku and Vegeta are unable to land any worthwhile hits, but Goku finds an opening to deliver a ''[[Kamehameha]]'' which blows a hole through [[Merged Zamasu|Zamasu]]'s chest. The hole closes right back up, unfortunately; Zamasu is just as immortal as before! Zamasu telekinetically grabs the two by their respective throats and causes a massive explosion, maniacally laughing and pontificating over his new godly reign.

Goku blocks a few blasts from hitting [[Future Trunks|Trunks]] and the others. As he tries to tell them to get further away, [[Shin]] hands Goku his Potara earrings: if Goku and Vegeta fuse into [[Vegetto]] once more, Zamasu will be no match for them! Vegeta initially refuses, restating how he will never fuse again; Goku expected this as an answer, and agrees with said sentiment. The two plan on fighting with their own, individual power (going so far as to rock/paper/scissors to decide who fights next). Goku is pummeled by [[Katchin]] blocks throw by the merged god, which leaves Trunks feeling rather hopeless.

[[Gowasu]] notes how much of a shame it is that the group will seemingly not last for another hour; after all, that is how long Zamasu's fusion is going to last. Vegeta exclaims that he believed the fusion was supposed to be permanent, but Gowasu corrects him in that the permanence is only for gods of their [[Kaiōshin]] rank; anyone else using the earrings will only last an hour. Even Shin is a bit perplexed, now understanding that Vegetto's separation in [[Majin Boo]]'s body must have just been due to said timing rather than due to other factors. Trunks is determined to help for the next hour, for the sake of this entire world, but especially his late mother. Trunks tells Vegeta that she asked about him all the time, and she was going to go with him to the past just to see Vegeta again. He does not want to leave the other Bulma alone, too, so he will fight. Vegeta tells him to save those words for when he is a mature warrior.

Goku, out of power, debates whether or not to go ahead and just use the last ''[[senzu]]'' they have. Vegeta arrives and demands the second earring. As Zamasu senses the two below him and prepares to kill them, an enormous blast flies out of the building and hits Zamasu, taking his entire right side with it. Someone begins talking, realizing aloud how Zamasu was able to regrow his arm. It is Vegetto, the Potara fusion of Goku and Vegeta! Vegetto launches into an explanation of how both of their fusions will only last an hour, chomps down on the last ''senzu'', and powers up to [[Super Saiyan Blue]]. Vegetto's plan is to completely demolish Zamasu to the point of there being nothing left to regenerate. Zamasu bursts from the ground and grabs Vegetto by the legs, but the Saiyan fusion slices the god's hands straight off with a ''[[ki]]'' [[Hand-Sword|sword]]. As Zamasu regenerates once more and prepares a barrage of Katchin blocks, Vegetto powers up a [[Final Kamehameha]]. Just as he is about to fire, the fusion suddenly splits apart back to a separate Goku and Vegeta…!

==Continuity==
===Anime===
The events of the manga and the anime diverge significantly. Below are the main differences, along with the episodes where the events of this chapter occur or contrast.
* The details of the initial fight with [[Merged Zamasu]] are almost entirely different in the anime.
* In the anime, Zamasu has a halo that seems to be tied to his new powers somehow.
* At the end of [[Dragon Ball Super Episode 65|episode 65]], [[Goku]] hits Zamasu with a ''[[Kamehameha]]'' as a [[Super Saiyan Blue]]. At the beginning of [[Dragon Ball Super Episode 66|episode 66]], the ''Kamehameha'' damages Zamasu, causing half of his body to turn into purple goo.
* Goku then attacks Zamasu with ''[[Kaiō-ken]]'', breaking his halo.
* [[Gowasu]] explains that Zamasu's mortal half, and specifically the breakdown of the balance between his soul and his body, is causing his vulnerability.
* Gowasu does not say or imply in the anime that Zamasu's fusion will only last one hour. This limitation is only brought up after Goku decides he and Vegeta should fuse. Goku asks Gowasu if he knows why [[Vegetto]] unfused when they fought [[Majin Boo]].
* Vegeta does not want to fuse in the anime, but he agrees to do it without extra encouragement from [[Future Trunks|Trunks]].
* The details of the fight between Vegetto and Zamasu are almost entirely different in the anime. Vegetto does use his [[Hand-Sword]], in response to Zamasu's use of the same technique. (He does not cut off Zamasu's hands.)
* Vegetto [[Final Kamehameha]] lands successfully in the anime. Then Vegetto punches Zamasu and unfuses.
==Notes==
* Post-transformation, [[Vegetto]] refers to himself as "Blue Vegetto" (ブルーベジット ''Burū Bejitto'') here in the manga chapter. This is in contrast with the name "Vegetto Blue" (ベジットブルー Bejitto Burū) that he gives himself in [[Dragon Ball Super Episode 66|episode 66]] of the television series. Other merchandise (specifically video games) continue to refer to the transformation as its original, seemingly-formal title of "[[Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan]]" (or just "SSGSS").
* Vegetto's "[[Final Kamehameha]]" technique (a combination of "[[Final Flash]]" and "''[[Kamehameha]]''") had, up until this point in the ''Dragon Ball Super'' television series and manga, only ever been seen and used in video games.
* This was the first chapter [[Viz]] published day-and-date (digitally on their website) alongside its original Japanese serialization in ''[[V-Jump]]''.
* Viz's English translation uses several naming conventions as they appeared in the company's original ''[[Dragon Ball (manga)|Dragon Ball]]'' manga translation. These includes "Klangite" for "[[Katchin]]" (adapting ''kachin'', the Japanese sound effect for metallic clanging or clanking noises) and "Vegerot" for "Vegetto" (adapting ベジット ''Bejitto'', the fusion of ベジータ ''Bejiita'' and カカロット ''kakarotto'', from their spellings of "[[Vegeta]]" and "[[Son Goku|Kakarrot]]").
