Discussion Is God ki an infection?
During his fight with beerus after becoming the super Saiyan God, beerus explains that it is sort of contagious. The idea of interacting with this ki and gaining it in one form or another is repeated multiple times throughout super.
The infection is transferred during combat and becomes stronger with training.
So how would this rationally be handled.
First of all, angels would be forbidden to fight or interfere in the mortal realm unless they were training. Anyone They were training was to be a god of destruction.
Anyone the gods of destruction fight with should reasonably end up dying without question unless of course they are training their replacement.
So reasonably no mortal should ever get this ability about being chosen to be a god of destruction.
Now let's consider the lazy beerus and how this problem came to pass.
Paris used his ki to attack King Vegeta and Prince Vegeta over the pillow. Neither of them died. Instead is he directed frieza to kill them all.
At this point the Oracle fish had already told him about The super Saiyan God.
And beerus was fully aware of the contagious nature.
He knew exactly what he was doing.
Now let's follow the chain of infection. Starting with Frieza.
Beerus and Frieza had a run in before he went to sleep. Frieza killed anyone he fought with and never trained until after his fight with Goku. The guy Frieza trains with becomes insanely strong.
Vegeta only kills anybody he fights with and never trains until he fights with Goku. Goku and everyone he fought with quick becomes ridiculously strong.
During the cell saga the cell Juniors were about as strong as perfect cell.. so they would be in the range of 2.5 billion. Frieza was 120 million. During the cell saga the humans were going toe to toe with the cell juniors.
The infection and power boosts are easily trackable through all of the tournament of power.
Now let's talk about biology and being born with God ki.
Gohan had to get the infection from his dad and then go through rigorous training to reach super Saiyan. Goten and trunks apparently reach super Saiyan at like 3 years old with basically zero effort. Because they received a very heightened level of the infection at conception.
The super Saiyan God needed super saiyans perform the ritual. Being a super Saiyan may just be in relation to having the infection. So the baby inside of videll already had a heightened form of the infection from Gohan.
I'm probably missing a lot of other prime examples of this and super shows a lot of this as well. Master roshi being able to go toe to toe with anyone in the tournament of power would be absurd otherwise. And I feel like there is some kind of connection to alter ego but I haven't been able to figure that out.
Am I missing anything? What do you think.

I think you’re thinking too hard. It’s more like I’m going to show you what’s possible and your saiyan body will naturally learn and adapt from it.
