In Dragon Ball Super Heroes, Trunks receives energy from the other members of the Time Patrol, accidentally performing the Super Saiyan God ritual.

While Dragon Ball fans are probably more familiar with the Future Trunks going back in time to help Goku and the others during the events of the Android and Cell Sagas, there is another, much more powerful version of Trunks from the future. This Trunks is known as Xeno Trunks, and is currently employed by the Time Patrol Agency as a guardian of history. Xeno Trunks is astronomically more powerful than the Trunks of the Future, and even managed to cross over into the realm of the gods.

In Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Big Bang Mission chapter 1, Goku and Vegeta are introduced to a version of Trunks from an alternate dimension. Xeno Trunks experienced a timeline similar to Future Trunks until he diverged after Cell’s death in the future. Xeno Trunks finds himself in the presence of the Kaioshin of Time, who proceeds to employ the Saiyan as an agent of justice to pay off his debts for messing with the story so often.

While Xeno Trunks is powerful in his own right, he discovers very quickly that he lacks the strength to take on villains intent on destroying the story. In chapter 16 of Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Dark Demon Realm Mission, Trunks is faced with the reality that he and the other Z Warriors who have become part of the Time Patrol are no match for the divine power of Mechikabura, the world’s most powerful demon in all of history. With Trunks being the only one who came out unscathed, the rest of the warriors channel their energy into him. With the combined power of Pan, Gohan, Goten, Goku, and Vegeta, the Saiyans unwittingly complete a long-lost ritual, turning Xeno Trunks into a Super Saiyan God.

The power of the Super Saiyan God is fully demonstrated when Trunks confronts Mechikabura with divine power. The sheer strength of the Super Saiyan God is able to resist Mechikabura’s dominance over time and space, even surviving a black hole being unleashed at point-blank range. Mechikabura’s defeat is not where Trunks’ Super Saiyan God form stops climbing, however, as in Big Bang Mission, Trunks is able to deflect a God-level attack from the Destruction of Bills. Xeno Trunks‘ Super Saiyan God form is clearly capable of reaching the same or greater heights as Goku and Vegeta in their respective transformations. Later, in the 9th anniversary book of Dragon Ball Heroes, it was revealed that the writers were torn between giving Trunks the Super Saiyan God or Super Saiyan 4, but chose the former option because they couldn’t decide what his hair color would look like as Super Saiyan 4. This implies that either form would have been able to accomplish the same feats narratively and their multipliers could even be of a similar nature.

Xeno Trunks achieving this transformation was a milestone for Dragon Ball Heroes, as he was the first manga-only Super Saiyan God within the Z Warriors. Trunks being a fan favorite is nothing new in the Dragon Ball scene and the success of his new form has led many to believe that more manga-only transformations will come soon. With the rise in popularity of Dragon Ball Heroes, Super Saiyan Blue Xeno Trunks may be turning the way Super Saiyan Gods are known throughout the work.
