“Wai-Huh?” Chaya asks, clearly having anticipated getting you for another one-on-one sparring session. “What do you mean?”
“We're trying to unlock EVERYONE's power here, not just those of your siblings.” you tell her, resting your hands palms-up on your knees, taking a deep breath and closing your eyes. “Perhaps taking some time to focus on your goals, on your power and what you want to achieve will help? Have you ever just sat in this state, familiarizing yourself with your power?”
“I...Huh. Guess I haven't ever done that, really.” she answers, you hearing her walk over and sit beside you. Caulifla, powering back up into her divine state does the same. Meanwhile Chilli, exhausted from constantly changing forms and attack styles simply collapses to the ground, trying to recover his strength. “Hmmmm.”
You sit there and focus on your own power, for a few moments. But as you try, your Berserker Soul keeps pushing you towards Chaya. Whose energy is radiating out from her like a beacon, drawing your soul's ire and wrath. You try and focus, to keep your soul contained, but it keeps pressing against your control. Determined to destroy the god mere feet from it.
“Hey, Chaya.” you reach out to your daughter telepathically, not opening your eyes or changing your breathing. “Did your mother offer you any advice? Did she tell you any secrets to unlocking this power?”
“Well, now that you mention it, there was something that didn't make any sense.” she replies, also telepathically. “That no matter how hard I pushed, I wouldn't get to Blue through sheer force of will. But that I had to be 'greater' than my divine power, that I have to 'eclipse' it fully. Whatever that means.”
You can almost see her hand motions with the words she puts emphasis on, but then something clicks. You remember a conversation you'd had with your wife not long after the Universe 6 tournament, when you'd asked her yourself about her Super Saiyan Blue form she'd shown for just a moment.
“Finally got to the next level, huh? Well done hun.” you'd told her, your wife beaming at you. “But how did you do it? Was it like getting the stronger levels of Super Saiyan, or was it different for being a god form?”
“It was completely different. No matter how hard I pushed, I couldn't break through that wall.” she told you, her eyes going distant as she recalls her struggle. “No, it needed an entirely different process.”
