The Gods of Destruction are among the most powerful beings in the Dragon Ball Super universe. These entities possess the ability to obliterate planets—or even entire universes—at will.
Beerus was the first God of Destruction introduced in Dragon Ball, making his debut in Battle of Gods. Later, we were introduced to Champa, and with that, the concept of each universe having its own God of Destruction was established.
Since then, fans have debated which of these deities is the strongest. Some argue that Beerus holds that title, while others believe Quitela or even Belmod could be the most powerful among them. Today, I want to explore this topic and discuss who I believe is the strongest God of Destruction—and why.
Is Beerus the Strongest God of Destruction?
It’s widely accepted that Beerus is one of the most formidable Gods of Destruction. Even if he isn’t definitively the strongest, he is certainly near the top. Quitela, for instance, is known to have defeated Beerus, but only in an arm-wrestling match—far from a true measure of their full combat abilities.
Before the Tournament of Power, the Gods of Destruction engaged in a battle among themselves, showcasing their strength.
Beerus stood out as one of the most dominant fighters. He even displayed the ability to use Ultra Instinct, a technique that gave the other Gods significant trouble. While Quitela and Belmod also left strong impressions during this clash, I believe Beerus demonstrated that he is the most powerful among them.
Beerus’ Experience and Longevity
One of Beerus’ biggest advantages is his extensive experience as a God of Destruction. In the Dragon Ball Super manga, Belmod revealed that he has held the position for 267,974 years and is already seeking a successor—likely Toppo, as Jiren has no interest in the role.
In contrast, Beerus has been a God of Destruction for over 75 million years, dating back to the time he sealed the Supreme Kai within the Z Sword. This immense period of service suggests that Beerus has far more experience than any other God of Destruction, which would likely give him an edge in battle.
Because of his longevity, mastery of combat, and the fact that he has consistently been portrayed as an incredibly powerful figure, I believe Beerus is the strongest God of Destruction.
While it’s possible that another deity could surpass him, his experience and demonstrated strength make him the most likely candidate for the title of the strongest God of Destruction.
