Jayr POV - Dragon Ball Universe(A.T.), Earth, West City - Age 796
After Future Mai gave the food and other necessities that Vegeta brought from the past to Future Bulma and her people, who started to organize them, we moved outside of the underground subway station where Future Mai once again thanked us, "It has been a long time since they looked so happy. We sincerely thank you all."
In response, Goku waves his hand and casually says, "You do not even need to thank us. If we do not stop Black, there won't be any peace for this era."
Hearing that, Future Mai nods before she looks at Future Trunks and asks, "You are going to fight too, right?" to which he replies with, "Yes." But then Vegeta quickly corrects him and says, "He will only observe. I will be the one who will defeat Black!"
Future Trunks isn't the only one shocked by he declaration as Goku exclaims, "Ehh!? I want to fight too!" which makes Vegeta glance in his direction before he says, "You won't! You already had your chance. It's my turn now."
At this point, Goku suggests, "Wait! Let's play Rock, Paper, Scissors to decide who is going to fight..." but Vegeta bluntly rejects, "I said no."
Despite his protests, he engages Goku in a game of rock-paper-scissors, much to Future Trunks and Future Mai's confusion.
"Rock. Paper. Scissors!"
"I said no!"
"Rock. Paper. Scissors!"
"I said no!"
"They do not seem nervous."
"Rock. Paper..."
""Scissors!""
Finally, Vegeta relents and plays, winning the game much to Goku's disappointment who exclaims, "Uwhaa! I lost!" which makes Vegeta grin and say, "I will not lose to you!"
Shortly after that, Future Trunks asks, "Dad! Let me fight him too, please. This is my world, it is our world, so I want to fight to protect it and do my part too." But Vegeta quickly rejects him and explains, "You can't. If things get bad, there is still Goza, who at the moment is much stronger than both Kakarot and I, and if even he isn't enough, there is still Jayr, whose power I still find unfathomable. You need to protect the Time Machines, your mother, and that girl. If worst comes to worst, you two need to return to our era. Understood?"
At this point, Goku grins and, while pointing at Vegeta, he says, "Check it out, he even says stuff like that now. He's really grown, huh?" making a stunned Future Trunks admit, "Y-Yeah..."
Shortly after that, Vegeta can't wait anymore and says, "Let's get this started, Kakarot, Goza!" before the three of them immediately fly away, leaving Future Trunks, Future Mai, and I behind.
Watching their figures in the distance as they quickly get smaller and smaller, Future Trunks mutters, "Dad..." which makes an anxious Future Mai ask, "Do you think they'll be able to pull it off?"
Future Trunks then replies, "Y-Yeah... they should be fine." reassuring Future Mai who guesses, "I see... So they're really that strong." but then Future Trunks comments, "There is that too, but... When it comes to protecting the world, it really does come down to those three. They have this mysterious power that just makes you believe they really can..."
At this point, I smile and comment, "That's because those three did indeed save the world countless times before, always throwing themselves into the fight headfirst, even more so when the odds were against them. They may stumble, get hurt, and sometimes even get killed, but in the end, they stand to fight again until they succeed. For them, this is just another challenge they have to overcome to become even stronger."
After saying that, I wave my hand and say, "Anyway, Trunks. If you want to watch the battle between your father and Black, you can do it without worrying about Mai, your mother, and the other people in this area."
Hearing that, Future Trunks turns his head to look at me and asks, "What do you mean with that, Jayr-san?" to which I calmly explain, "It's very simple. I erected a barrier around the whole area used by the resistance. As long as they don't leave the area, they will be perfectly safe from just about anything. I made it strong enough that even if the whole universe gets destroyed, this small area will still be completely unharmed and the people within safe."
In response to my explanation, Future Mai can't help but exclaim in disbelief, "Really!?" followed by Future Trunks, who comments in awe, "This is incredible..." before they both bow and say, ""Thank you very much!""
I wave my hand and casually say, "You don't have to thank me so formally, this is something I wanted to do." before I look at Future Trunks and add, "Now, since you know that everyone here is safe. Do you want to see and maybe even take part in Vegeta, Goku, and Goza's battle against Zamasu?"
Without any hesitation on his part, Future Trunks immediately stands upright and replies, "Yes!" before he exchanges a few words with Mai, and together, we fly after Goku, Vegeta, and Goza.
Soon we catch up with the trio surprising them for a moment before Vegeta starts to berate Future Trunks, but before Vegeta could get even more upset, I quickly interrupt him and tell him about the barrier I erected around the underground subway station used by the resistance and explain that because of its presence, they don't have to worry about anyone under its protection as it can withstand just about anything.
Hearing that, Vegeta calms down, and then the group resumes searching for a good place to battle Black.
After flying for a few more seconds, we find a good location, and after landing, Vegeta doesn't waste any time and fires a Ki Blast in the air in order to attract Black to this location while Goku casually comments, "Good, this will let him know where we are."
We don't have to wait for too long before the air starts crackling as a small vortex appears within the drak clouds and seeing this scene, Vegeta smirks and says, "He came already..." to which I can't help but smirk and rebut, "Hey! Phrasing!" but it falls to deaf ears as everyone is now focusing on Black who is about to reveal his figure as a dark vortex crackling with electrict-like energy slowly descends from the dark clouds.
The thick dark vortex is then blown away, fully revealing Black's figure floating up in the sky, which makes Future Trunks shout, "Black!!"
Black looks at Goku, Vegeta, Goza, and Future Trunks, and then with a smirk, he casually comments, "I remember destroying the Time Machine, so how it is possible that you are here?"
In response, Vegeta snorts and says, "I'll tell you just one thing!" before he immediately transforms into a Super Saiyan Blue to battle him and adds, "Today I will kill you using the Super Saiyan Blue transformation!"
At the same time, I see that Future Trunks notes Black's unsurprised expression, which likely makes him wonder if Black has seen the form somewhere before making me smirk and think, 'Of course, Zamasu has already seen the Super Saiyan Blue transformation. After all, just before we were about to travel to the future, he was watching the recording of the Tournament of Destroyers with Supreme Kai Gowasu. Which means the he has not only learned about the Super Saiyan Blue transformation, but also the Super Dragon Balls... which are the main catalyst behind the apparence of Black.'
While I'm thinking that, Black applauds Vegeta and tells him, "Excellent! So this is how the warrior race looks like when they use the Ki of the Gods... "
Then he teleported in front of Vegeta, placing his fingers in front of his throat without the Saiyan prince instantly reacting while saying, "You must have trained a lot to reach such level. However, in the end, you're just a mortal."
At this point, a surprised Vegeta reacts and quickly bounces back, creating some distance between them as he clearly realizes that Black is far stronger than when he last fought with Goku.
Vegeta then prepares to assault Black, rushing toward him while shouting the conclusion of what he was thinking out loud, "But... That's nothing compared to the power of the Super Saiyan Blue!"
After yelling that, Vegeta hits Black with a powerful punch that launches him far away before he chases after him and attacks with a barrage of hard punches.
At the same time, Future Trunks asks, "Goku-san, Goza-san. Black said "in the end, you're just a mortal." Does it not indicate that his true identity is that of a god?" which makes Goku guess in an uncertain tone, "I think so..." followed by Goza who adds while still not revealing the knowledge he has of the situation thanks to his reincarnation, "For sure, he at least thinks he is above mortal... as for whenever he is truly a god, I can't say it without any proof."
At this point, I casually reveal, "Yes, he is indeed a god... In fact, Black's true identity is that of the Kai named Zamasu from Universe 10... To be more precise, Black is a future version of him who used the Super Dragon Balls to switch his body with that of Goza."
Shocked by that, Future Trunks and Goku exclaim, ""What!?"" before Future Trunks asks, "How do you know that? And why did you not tell us anything until now!?" to which I reply, "The answer for your first question is quite simple, I can "see" his soul... even if his body has changed, his soul is exactily the same. I "saw" both Zamasu and Black, and their souls are identical with the difference that one is younger and more "clean" while the other is older and more "filthy." Regarding your second question, it is a little more complex. Basically, even if I did something to the Zamasu of our era, this Black would still exist and continue to destroy your world as he is protected by the Time Ring he is wearing. Because of that, I simply deemed it unnecessary doing anything against the Zamasu of the past as he is still currently innocent, but don't worry, if he makes a move in the wrong direction, he is going to regret it very quickly."
At the same time, I can't help but smirk while thinking, 'Especially since I've informed Beerus and Whis about everything a few moments before leaving... It's very likely that those two are observing Zamasu and Gowasu at this very moment. Because of that, as soon as Zamasu tries to attack Gowasu and starts his plan, Beerus is going to Hakai'd him without any hesitation or remorse.'
While I'm thinking that, Vegeta knocks Black into the ground with a kick and further assaults him with a barrage of punches to the point that he creates concentric craters on the ground, but Black, unaffected by the attacks, smirks at Vegeta, who suddenly senses something is wrong and quickly, without any hesitation, interrupts his assault getting away from Black.
Black casually walks out of the crater with a smile on his face, cleans his Gi from the dust with a few pats, then kicks Vegeta hard, knocking him back to where we are standing, causing a worried Future Trunks to shout, "Dad!"
Black then compliments Vegeta's ability by saying, " I am surprised that a mortal has reached such a level of power. As a reward, I'll show you something." before he starts to powers up, to the point that it starts to affect the weather and even the planet starts to shake under the pressure of his immense power.
Then, with a loud yell, Black unleashes a pillar of purpleish-pink Ki as his appearance goes through a radical change, and while his power increases exponentially, he transforms into a Super Saiyan Rosè.
This form is identical to the Super Saiyan Blue form in all but color. Black's hair takes on a pastel pink color with faint white highlights, his eyebrows match the color of his hair, and his eyes change to light gray.
The aura's shape is very similar to that of Super Saiyan Blue's with major color differences, it has a very dark shade of red on the outside, while it has a more pinkish color on the inside.
While the aura is present, Black's clothing becomes brighter, and while his eyes appear pink, the color of his hair and eyebrows become a slightly darker shade of pink due to him being illuminated by the aura, and he acquires a dark purple glow around his body.

Future Trunks is utterly shocked by Black's transformation as he mutters with clear disbelief in his tone, "Black has... Its color... why is it pink...?"
At the same time, Black chuckles and says, "Just look at this color... Isn't it beautiful? I'll play along with how you like to name things... and call this form, Rosè... So it will be Super Saiyan Rosè!" which makes the still shocked Future Trunks repeats, "Super Saiyan Rosè!?"
After that, Black starts to rise up in the air and says, "I finally managed to evolve myself to the same level as the strongest warrior in the universe. Huhuhu." Then he focuses on Goza and says, "Son Goza, Son Goku. Just look at me. I'm very grateful because of you, I have reached the peak of beauty."
At this point, Goku tilts his head and asks with clear confusion in his tone, "I don't understand what are ya talking 'bout." This makes the arrogant and proud Black chuckle and say, "In the end, you're only a mortal. You cannot possibly understand the deep level of my proud words. Neither my theory, or my beauty... so all I ever wanted in my life... all that is finally within my reach."
Goku continued to look at Black before he commented in a deadpan tone, "I already thought of this before, but that guy is indeed a bit strange."
At the same time, Vegeta shouts, "Black! Where are you looking? Your opponent is right here!" which makes Black glance in his direction and say, "Don't you understand? Your time has already passed."
Offended by his words, Vegeta exclaims, "What did you say!?" before Black continues to casually dismiss him, "You should know your place..."
At this point, the enraged Vegeta lets out a roar and attacks Black again, but Black easily dodges Vegeta's punch before he mutters, "I'll show you..." and quickly counterattacks with his own punch, making a worried Future Trunks warn his father with a shout.
But Future Trunks' warning was useless, as Vegeta was already prepared for the counterattack and quickly caught Black's fist with one hand.
Seeing that, Black tries to push through by increasing his power but Vegeta matches him and then deliver a powerful kick to Black's side before following with a barrage of punches that ends in an uppercut that flips Black's body in mid air, and then, Vegeta winds up for one last powerful punch while yelling, "Now go to hell!"
But right at that moment, Black smirks and takes advantage of this opening to stab Vegeta with a purple Energy Blade from his right hand.
A shocked Vegeta stares at the Energy Blade stabbing his body clean through the chest and mutters, "N-No, it can't be..." while Black calmly comments, "A moment ago, I said you didn't know your place, and look at what happened now... Sorry, Vegeta, you're just a warm-up!"
Hearing that, Vegeta mutters, "D-Damn you...!" before he spits blood from his mouth as Black pulls out the Enegy Blade, and then he powers down to his base form and starts to fall.
As Vegeta crashes on the ground, a shocked Future Trunks yells, "Father!" but then Black chuckles and says, "Hehehe. Thanks for the appetizer. I feel stronger now. Just watch! I think I going to rise to greater heights now by enjoying another treat before the main dish..."
Hearing that, Future Trunk curses, "Damn you...!" but then he is interrupted by Goku who steps forward and says, "All right!" before he immediately transforms into Super Saiyan Blue and asks, "Jayr, can you take care of Vegeta?"
In response, I smile and say in an absolutely confident tone, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, you won't die even if you actually get killed. Go mad and fight to your heart's content. If you get defeated, Vegeta will be ready to take your place."
Goku grins and says, "Awesome!" before he flies up and prepares to confront Black, who is waiting for him with the Energy Blade in his right hand ready.
Goku stares at Black and comments, "So this is what you meant when you said that you will rise to even greater heights," which makes Black reply, "Right now, I'm at a level where a mere mortal can not hope to reach."
Black then points his Energy Blade at Goku and asks, "This power... Do you also want to experience it?" which makes Goku smirk and say, "Yes, bring it on!" before he launches a volley of Ki Blasts at Black with a wave of his hand.
Black easily defends himself by splitting the Ki Blasts with his Energy Blade, but the split Ki Blasts explode, creating a smokescreen that Goku uses to his advantage to attack Black with a punch.
Black is prepared for that and blocks the punch with the palm of his free hand before he retaliates by swining his Energy Blade, which Goku then dodges and starts to counterattack.
While the two continue to fight, I calmly walk toward Vegeta with Goza, and an anxious Future Trunks following after me and once I'm right in front of his figure lying on the ground with a hole in his chest, I don't waste any time and quickly use Restoration Magic to manipulate the time of his body, returning it back to a state before he was wounded by Black.
Shortly after taking care of Vegeta who is now sitting up checking his body with a worried Future Trunks next to him, I look at Goza who is watching his father's battle against Black with a frown on his face and ask, "If you are so worried about this battle, with don't you make a move? With your current power, you should be more than capable of taking care of Black."
In response, Goza shakes his head and explains, "It isn't the right time... At the moment, both Father and Vegeta-san are still able to confront the current Black even if he is quickly getting stronger each passing moment. I will only move if Black becomes way too strong for them to gain anything from the battle."
At this point, Vegeta gets up and says, "Damn right, you are! There is no way I'll let you, Kakarot, or anyone else for that matter, continue to surpass me!"
As he is saying that, Vegeta's Ki suddenly explodes becoming much more powerful than a few moments ago, without any doubt this is the result of his heighted emotional state in combination with the fact that he stopped understimating Black after he took him out by surprise using the Energy Blade making him willing to go all out.
At the same time, Future Trunks focuses on Goku and Black's battle and comments, "Are those two equally matched...?" but Vegeta quickly dismisses it with a loud snort before he says, "No, they aren't... Black is slightly stronger..."
As soon as he finishes saying that, Black almost cuts Goku with his energy blade, something that distracts Goku for a moment, and Black takes advantage of this opening to knock Goku to the ground with one hard heel kick.
After knocking down Goku, Black slowly lands on the roof of a nearby building and dismiss his Energy Blade as his body is once again enveloped in his aura with a very dark shade of red on the outside and a more pinkish color on the inside before he takes the iconic stance with his hands cupped at the side of his body charging a massive amount of Ki between them.
Seeing that, Goku mutters, "The Kamehameha?" which makes Black grin before he states, "It's time to end this." but just before he can unleash his Kamehameha, another voice is heard that makes Black snuff out his charging Kamehameha, "I did not allow you to do that."
Shortly after, the clouds above Black part away as a shining pillar of light falls from the sky, and within that pillar, a humanoid figure is slowly descending.
Seeing that figure, Goku exclaims, "Zamasu-sama!" followed by Vegeta, who shouts, "Zamasu!! No way!"
Zamasu is a lean-built individual of fairly tall height, he has pale green skin, gray irises, white eyebrows, and white hair in the style of a mohawk.
He wears a violet long-sleeved shirt under a gray and yellow coat, a light blue sash, dark blue baggy pants, and white boots, he also wears a single Potara-like earrings on his left ear.

Zamasu lands right next to Black and says, "I already told yoy before. As promised, I will finish off Son Goku," making everyone who still didn't realize that those two are working together realize it.
Shortly after he says that, Goku turns his head to look at me and asks, "But Zamasu is inside of Black's body, right? So then how can there be two of him!?"
At this point, I calmly explain, "The one inside Black is the future Zamasu from your era. That Zamasu traveled to Trunks's era after getting his hands on Goza's body... This means that at the moment in this world, there are TWO Zamasu. The one from your era, and the one that is the original of this era."
Hearing that, Future Trunks exclaims, "Ah, I get it! So Black is the Zamasu from Goku-san, Goza-san, and father's world! A completely separate person from the Zamasu of this world! But who would have ever thought they'd team up...!"
Goku then stands up and comments, "Sounds pretty complicated. All I know is that we got two people to fight now!" followed by Vegeta, who walks right next to Goku and says, "Hmpf! It doesn't make any difference if it's one or two... He is just one more opponent to defeat."
At the same time, Black notices the presence of Vegeta and mutters, "Vegeta is still standing...? Strange, I was sure that he was at the very least in a critical state, if not even dead... Oh well." before he turns his head to look at Zamasu and says, "You sure took your time to arrive..."
Zamasu smirks and pulls off a green Time Ring from his finger while saying, "Yes, well... I had to go investigate all the other alternative timelines," which makes a curious Black ask, "And... what did you learn?"
Zamasu magically summoned the box containing the other Time Rings while replying, "Compared to the timeline you originally came from, the others have nothing that should pose a significant hindrance to us. We should easily be able to conquer them. Soon... all mortal life across the five alternative timelines will be extinguished. Hmm?"
But he suddenly stops gloating as he notices something within the box containing the Time Ring and exclaims, "Impossible... Another ring has appeared!? This means... A new alternative timeline has been created..." which makes a shocked Black shout, "What!?"
At this point, I teleport right behind him without any of them noticing, look inside the box, and see that there are indeed six Time Ring within the box and casually comment, "In all likelihood your past self has just been Hakai'd by Beerus for trying to kill your own mentor Gowasu."
Shocked by my sudden appearance, both Black and Zamasu hop back, creating some distance between them and me while Black exclaims, "What did you say!?" followed by Zamasu who asks, "Who are you!?"
I smile and say in an even tone, "You pathetic excuse of a divine being doesn't deserve to know my name. Just be grateful that I will simply play the part of a supporting spectator... Because you wouldn't enjoy the experience of being my opponent."
