To 100 percent complete this storyline, we’ll show you how to unlock the canon and alternate path in Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero To Become Strongest in the Universe.

Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero To Become Strongest in the Universe guide

To Become the Strongest in the Universe focuses on Future Trunk’s What If narrative, detailing what would happen if he had stayed in Super. With this new resolve, he trains with Vegeta, Piccolo, and Gohan back-to-back. Here are a few tips and tricks to help you complete To Become the Strongest in the Universe in Sparking Zero.

Although the canon pathway typically leads to other chapters, this saga requires you to achieve the Second Clear Condition to move onto the following stage. To do this, you must defeat Vegeta, Piccolo, and Gohan in under two minutes. I know that seems like a lot to handle in so little time, but it’s not entirely impossible with enough practice.

Only one strategy worked for me, where I consistently used Sparking Mode’s enhanced abilities. For Vegeta, try to get his health down until you’ve acquired a Skill Count for the Sparking Mode. Next, start unleashing a ton of punches, getting his health bar into the green zone. I suggest not performing your special attack here, as it takes up too much of your time (only use it twice during this fight). You should trigger Piccolo’s phase at this point, and it’s best to, once again, activate Sparking Mode.

Regarding Piccolo and Gohan, I had a system where I used Sparking Mode, performed numerous punches, and then initiated Future Trunks’ special attack just before the power ran out. When you do it this way, their health decreases considerably, making the challenging time limit more bearable.

Keep in mind that Vegeta and Piccolo will swap out whenever their health is around the green zone. You don’t have to take them down thoroughly, so that’s one thing not to stress about. The same goes for Gohan, concluding the battle shortly after defeating him.

If you’re still struggling with this showdown, use the Dragon Orb to end your suffering. This item lowers the difficulty of alternate paths, which will definitely come in handy in this match. I tested to see what would happen if you activated the orb, and it ended the same as the under-two-minute method. You still have to beat them, but now it’ll be slightly more accessible.

You’ll know when you’ve unlocked the alternative path when Gohan states, “That was awesome, Trunks… Sorry, I couldn’t give you a better run for your money.” However, if Trunks talks, that means you have triggered the canon ending instead (because you went over the time limit).

Trigging the Sparking Zero canon ending for the To Become Strongest in the Universe chapter is much more straightforward. The goal is simple: defeat Vegeta, Piccolo, and Gohan under no time limit. You can use the techniques mentioned above, using Sparking Mode for quick punches and special attacks. Considering there’s no time limit, you can use as many special attacks as you like.

You can even lower the difficulty if needed, as the canon pathways are easier to trigger this way. On the other hand, this particular storyline will only progress further with the alternate route. It works differently than Goku’s Saga, where the ending only stays within the canon timeline.

I highly suggest sticking to Future Trunk’s What If pathway since it provides the most exclusive reward, the Super Shenron Dragon Balls. You won’t have many chances to obtain this one, so try your best to complete his saga.
