These are some facts from Dragon Ball mythology to build on:
God Ki (or Divine Ki) is the energy used by deities like Gods of Destruction and Angels. Itās purer, often cannot be detected by beings who only have mortal ki. ļæ½

Super Saiyan God (SSG) is a transformation that grants a Saiyan god ki, dramatically increasing strength beyond even SSJ3. Itās initially obtained via a ritual involving several righteous Saiyans giving up their ki into one Saiyan. ļæ½
Once someone has accessed God Ki (through a ritual or direct divine training), they can train to maintain it or push its limits. ļæ½

š” How This Could Play Out in Your Fic
Hereās how Woody could help Cobs attain SSG in this universe:
Woody (as God of Destruction) senses something special in Cobsā aura after his sacrifice / revival. Maybe Cobsā purity of intent, his atonement, and his latent power make him stand out.
Vod assists with training to help Cobs cultivate God Ki (control, purity of intent, minimizing ki leaks, etc.).
There might be a ritualāsimilar to the DB āsix righteous Saiyansā conceptāadapted to your universe. Perhaps several of the redeemed MePhones, Contestants, or even Shimmers channel their energy into Cobs under Vodās guidance.
Woody might oversee the ritual or training, teaching Cobs how to maintain tranquility while channeling immense power (because SSJ and higher forms in DB often require emotional control if you want stability).
Ascension into Super Saiyan God
Cobs reaches a moment where the ritual/training pays off: he transforms into SSG. Visual cues might include a change in hair color (maybe crimson red or goldenāred), a different kind of aura (flame-like divine aura rather than the standard SSJ golden), calmer eyes, lighter muscular definition, etc.
This form isnāt just power for powerās sakeāit verifies that his redemption is absolute: he has not only defeated Nullvoid, repented, and protected others, but now carries divine power recognized by God-level beings.
It could also change how others perceive him: mortals and even Shimmers who once feared/distrusted him now see him not just as a golden warrior, but a godlike guardian.
š Example Scene Beats for Cobsā Super Saiyan God Ascension
Hereās how you might write that in your story:
Woody and Vod lead Cobs to a sacred place (perhaps Shimmer temple or a space between realms).
Several of his allies (Fan, Test Tube, MePhone4, some Shimmers) contribute their energyāemotionally, spirituallyāto the ritual.
Cobs must endure a test: perhaps recall all his sins, feel the guilt, but choose peace anyway; find calm in his heart.
The ritual culminates: golden-red aura bursts, hair shifts color, eyes glow with divine fire, God Ki blossoms, transforming his SSJ3 or base form into Super Saiyan God.
Test Tube: She starts as the analytical, somewhat distant scientist, but taking care of the Baby Shimmer softens her edges. She learns empathy and patience, and she realizes that nurturing life can be as important as analyzing data.
Fan: His inventive nature pairs perfectly with Test Tubeās intellect, but he also grows in emotional maturity. Caring for the Baby Shimmer and witnessing Cobsā redemption teaches him about trust, forgiveness, and the weight of responsibility.
Bot: The bridge between their two worldsāthe mechanical creation born of their combined intellectāgives them an anchor, a symbol of what they can achieve together. Bot also provides subtle comic relief, but more importantly, becomes a constant reminder of their collaborative strength.
Cobsā Godhood journey: Guiding Cobs from his mortal, scarred self into Super Saiyan God and then Blue is like their ultimate test as mentors, caretakers, and moral anchors. Seeing someone they once feared step into godhood, guided by their support, is a shared triumph.
All these threads together would make Test Tube and Fan incredibly bondedānot just partners in adventure, but emotional pillars for each other. And the Baby Shimmer? The tiny being they care for strengthens that bond even moreātheyāre building a future together, not just saving it.
š Scene: The First Blue Ascension
Cobs closes his eyes, breathing slowly, his aura vanishing entirely. For a moment it feels like heās disappeared ā god ki is undetectable. Then the air shifts. The pressure thickens, heavy yet calm, like the entire world is holding its breath.
With a flash of blinding azure light, his hair bursts into a vivid blue, eyes glowing like twin flames. His aura is no longer wild or fiery like his golden forms ā itās refined, sharp, and serene, yet carrying crushing weight.
(gripping her notes, trembling)
āThis⦠this energyāno, itās not energy. Itās⦠divine. Itās god ki. He⦠heās done it. Heās transcended even his limits!ā
(She adjusts her glasses, overwhelmed but smiling in awe)
āCobs⦠youāre not just a warrior anymore. Youāre⦠a god.ā
(eyes wide, voice hushed with reverence)
āBlue⦠itās not just another form. Iāve read about the legends of gods, of ki that no mortal could ever sense. This⦠this is beyond legends. This is what he was meant to be.ā
(His voice cracks slightly as he whispers to himself)
āFrom the monster we feared⦠to the god we needed.ā
(scanning frantically, sparks flying from overload)
āError! Energy reading⦠inconclusive. Power level⦠cannot be computed. Conclusion: Subject Cobs has surpassed calculable limits.ā
(Bot pauses, his voice softening for once)
āDesignation update: Not Golden Warrior⦠Blue Warrior.ā
(eyes glowing faintly as it instinctively reacts to his god ki, tiny wings of light fluttering)
āHe feels⦠safe. Warm⦠like home. Like the stars.ā
(It floats closer, almost nuzzling his aura. In its innocent voiceā¦)
āYouāre not scary anymore⦠youāre⦠ours.ā
As the azure aura stabilizes, the four of them share a silent look. They donāt see the tyrant Cobs. They donāt even see the Golden Warrior. They see a man who had burned everything away ā sins, regrets, pain ā and emerged as something new.
For the first time, they truly believed he had redeemed himself.
