(Scene starts after returning to ANODYNE )

Goku puts his hand on his stomach and says, "I suddenly feel very hungry, like I haven't eaten anything for ages. Can I get some food before we check on my condition?" Verdona creates food for Goku and leaves the room. She returns after half an hour to find Goku finished eating and burping. "Looks like your appetite has doubled from before. Now sit in a meditative position again," Verdona orders Goku, removing the utensils from the room. She then goes inside Goku's mind. After 10 minutes, she comes out and says, "You have to hold back your power a lot now." Goku asks, concerned, "Why? What happened to me?" Verdona replies, "Your mind has created a subspace with god ki inside your subconscious brain part, and all the black holes and quasars are stored there."

Goku gets confused and asks, "You're saying those big black things and stars are inside my skull? How?" Verdona clarifies, "It's better to say your god ki stored them there and created a whole dimension inside your brain."

"But why did my god ki do it, and how did it pull that off?" Goku asks curiously. Verdona theorizes, "The artificial god ki you had before was created to understand the nature of your world's god energy and give you a chance against divine beings. It's a strong imitation made for only one purpose, but after you refined it, it evolved and became truly divine energy. Your god ki is trying to find what kind of divine energy it wants to be, just like how the god of destruction divine energy is for destruction."

Goku interrupts and comments, "But what kind of purpose is it trying to find in those black holes you mentioned, and why does it attract me there?" Verdona replies with an irritated expression, "Can't you wait for me to finish?!" Goku makes a silly face and replies, "Sorry, I thought you were done."

Verdona continues her explanation, "Your god ki instinctively searches for places to get information on where it can learn more about matters and atoms, how to create them, combine them, etc. It brings you to the universe's greatest libraries, black holes. Natural black holes consume information on matter in the universe for billions of years, containing information on it down to the smallest details."

Goku asks out of curiosity, "So now I have all that information, but why don't I feel like I gained any knowledge?" Verdona smugly replies, "Do you really think you can handle billions of years of knowledge when you don't even remember what you learned from Azmuth two weeks ago? You now have a whole mind space inside your brain to hold back all that vast knowledge so you don't go insane. You did all of that stuff based on your instincts without knowing a single thing about it."

Goku looks in different directions and replies, "I think that's enough to say I am an idiot." Verdona says, "When did I say you're an idiot? You are a clueless idiot who only reacts properly after the problem happens."

Goku respectfully asks Verdona if she can help him gain all that knowledge. Verdona answers, "You have to gain all that knowledge yourself. Your god ki is also locked with it to keep it from harming you. You have to create a solid basic knowledge on the workings of matter creation to become capable enough to digest all that knowledge."

Goku stands up and transforms into his god form. He replies, "I don't think my all-god ki is used, but if I go above 35 percent, it's kind of taxing. I think even this much energy is enough for me to rival my previous ultra instinct in terms of power."

Verdona sighs, "Of course, it's stronger than your previous self, even if it isn't complete. Your growth is exponential, and it takes a huge leap every time you grow." Both start laughing for no reason, and Verdona starts teaching Goku matter creation with reality wrapping, but whatever Goku creates is like an enchanted version of the original.

Verdona comments, "Goku, you have to create an exact item. Why does everything you create have more energy and density? Control your energy. Don't just assemble it like Lego pieces. Draw it like an art." Goku replies, "I didn't understand what you just said, except for the part I have to control my energy."

"Great, at least you understand something. Now work on at least that part," Verdona replies and goes out of the room.

The next day, Verdona comes to check on Goku with food and finds him trying to eat an apple he created. Goku tells Verdona how whatever he creates, he can taste it, but it doesn't feel like he ate anything. Verdona answers while giving Goku food, "Maybe it changes inside you."

Verdona sternly informs Goku that while he has made progress in controlling his energy, it still possesses more power than a human nuclear bomb. She demands that he tone it down even more to avoid catastrophic consequences. Goku is taken aback but acknowledges her concerns.

To help him master his energy, Verdona instructs Goku to practice using apples only, and to keep the failed ones in a sack. With no room for argument, Goku follows this routine for the remaining days of his training .

On the last day of his training, Goku confidently tells Verdona about his eagerness to learn things beyond his normal capabilities from the last guy. Verdona informs him that he must first visit Azmuth, who she has already explained the situation to. Azmuth wants to test something and will then tell Goku about Paradox. Verdona also tells Goku that his failed apples were helpful and reduced the training time required for an anodite by five years.

Goku promises to create tons of these apples for Verdona and her planet before he leaves this world. He then teleports to Galvan Prime with a newfound sense of determination.
