​ Hearts (ハーツ, Hatsu) is the leader of the Core Area Warriors, a collection of individuals whose goal is to destroy Zeno. He is the main antagonist of the Universal Conflict Saga.

Appearance

Hearts from the SDBH promotional poster

Hearts is a tall man with blonde, slicked-back hair, red eyes and pointed ears. His skin is mostly pale, with a few yellow marks on the upper sides of his face. He wears a long black coat over a yellow belt and red pants, in addition to red gloves and an orange visor over his eyes.

Personality

Similar to Zamasu, Hearts is a self-righteous and arrogant individual, with a self-serving and all-consuming goal. He believes that the multiverse can only truly be free once the gods, including the Omni-Kings are killed. At the same time, he is somewhat of a hypocrite: While talking about true freedom and peace, he has no qualms about attacking planets and killing countless people, seeing it as all for the sake of being "nourishment" for the multiverse. When called out on his hypocrisy, not only does Hearts admit this fact, but actually seems to welcome it, accepting his hypocrisy with grace. At the same time, however, he does seem to value his comrades, as he has saved them from being defeated whenever pressured by the enemy and after Kamin and Oren died, he promises that their deaths will not be in vain as he had completed the Universe Seed. However, his loyalty is ultimately only towards his goal of destroying gods, as once Fused Zamasu was viewed as no longer needed, Hearts destroyed the rogue god with pleasure.

Hearts appears to have a composed attitude, not being unsettled by Vegeta and Trunks's unexpected appearances, and keeping his plan as his main priority first and foremost. His confidence was seen as how Hearts willingly questioned Hit about the identity of the strongest mortal throughout the multiverse, and showed zero hesitation or doubts about facing off against Jiren upon learning his identity, however he can also acknowledge and respect his opponents' power as after being defeated by Jiren alongside Zamasu and Cumber in the game Hearts acknowledged that Jiren was worthy of being the strongest mortal in the universes, and in the manga he admitted that Jiren's power was greater than he thought and seemed impressed that Hit managed to find a counter to his mind reading and to land an attack on him.

In addition to his arrogance, he stated that he wants to draw out Goku's perfected Ultra Instinct ability implying that similar to other fighters like Goku or Hit he enjoy a true challenge.

Universal Conflict Saga

Main article: Universal Conflict Saga

Hearts tells Zamasu to be patient

Hearts appears along with Fused Zamasu and watches his allies, Oren and Kamin, battle against Vegeta and Future Trunks. Hearts tells Zamasu that they hadn't planned on dealing with those from Universe 7 until a later time and asks him to refrain from getting involved until after Zeno has been defeated. He then travels to Universe 6 along with Zamasu and unannounced to all on the battlefield, he attacks the Saiyans and Hit with a gravitational force that pins everyone to the ground. He tells Vegeta that he is the man that will take down Zeno and will use the Universe Seed to do so along with taking down the Gods of Destruction and the Supreme Kai.

Hearts pins everyone to the ground

In a display of power he creates a large transparent cube which he sends upwards into space and around a nearby planet before shrinking the cube to destroy it. He then creates additional cubes and places them above the Saiyans and Hit, ready to do the same to them but Oren and Kamin tell Hearts that they were in the middle of having fun fighting them causing Hearts to halt his attack. Hearts suggests heading towards the next Universe and asks Zamasu to come along with him though Zamasu tells Hearts not to order him around. Spotting Hit, Hearts asks him who is the strongest being in all of the Universes. Though Hit does not answer, Hearts is able to read his mind and determine that the answer is Jiren and decide to head to his Universe.

Hearts looks down on Goku

Hearts, having previously sent Cunber to try and deal with Jiren, notices his failure and increases the gravity on the Pride Trooper to stall him from attacking Cunber before teleporting the ancient Saiyan away to Universe 3. He then sends Oren, Kamin, and Fused Zamasu to attack, however, they fail to do any real damage. Later, Hearts makes note of Goku's arrival and wonders if he has become a true god after seeing his power. Hearts calls out to Lagss as he wishes to use her power and she soon appears surrounded by a barrier of pointed glass. Using his powers, Hearts sends the pointed end of the barrier towards Goku though he is able to destroy it thanks to his might in his Ultra Instinct -Sign- state.

Soon after Lagss battle with Goku and Trunks, Hearts tells her to move on to assist Cunber in Universe 3 as only she can do so. Hearts reads Goku's mind and notices that his previous Ultra Instinct -Sign- state was imperfected and vows to draw out it's real power. Goku charges at Hearts but using his Gravity Burst, he pins Goku, Trunks and Vegeta to the ground with ease. After Shin appears on the battlefield and Goku teleports everyone away, Hearts makes plans to head for their next destination now that they have gathered enough energy from Universe 11. Jiren attempts to stop him but Hearts traps him in an Energy Cube to immobilize him.

Super Hearts

Hearts and his allies head to Universe 7 where they confront the Dragon Team once more. Goku targets Hearts and rushes at him but Hearts repeatedly slams him to the ground using his Gravity Burst technique. When the Universe Seed begins to shine, Hearts removes his jacket and powers himself up, entering into a stronger state before saying that the Universe Seed will soon be complete.

Hearts about to strike Goku

Hearts and Goku begin fighting and he forces Goku back with a barrage of punches. With little choice, Goku becomes a Super Saiyan Blue which makes the fight more evenly matched though the two acknowledge that neither is using their full power. When the fight commences again, Goku begins to gain an advantage and overwhelms Hearts with a Kamehameha. However Hearts stands up and taunts Goku before using his Gravity powers on him. When Hearts uses his Gravity Fist technique, Goku is at a disadvantage as Hearts begins to power up further. Drawing the energy cubes towards himself, he charges at Goku and knocks him hard to the ground which causes him to fall out of Super Saiyan Blue. Hearts continues to torture and mock Goku, asking him if he can make the fight more exciting.

Hearts with the completed Universe Seed

His attention is turned away to notice that Kamioren is being overpowered and decides to give them more power. Using his energy cubes, he shrinks down the Universe Seed and has it merge with Kamioren which causes them to significantly power up and grow to giant size. Hearts watches as Goku fights Kamioren and transforms into his Autonomous Ultra Instinct form, commenting that Goku has the power of a God. After Goku kills Kamioren, Hearts summons the Universe Seed towards him, saying that it is now in it's completed state. Saying that Kamin and Oren's death will not be in vain, Hearts joins with the Universe Seed as a swarm of his energy cubes begin to draw towards him.

Ultimate Godslayer Hearts

Once fully fused with the Universe Seed, he is reborn as the Ultimate Godslayer. His first action is to disintegrate Fused Zamasu within an Energy Cube, putting the Kai's intentions to continue Project Zero Mortals to a destructive end, as Hearts wishes to destroy the gods, Zamasu is his first victim. He then demonstrates his power further by completely demolishing the city below. As he turns his attention to the others, he uses the green orbs behind his back to attack them, zooming through the air as they encircle and enclose everyone into a limited space.

Hearts displays his new power

Ultimate Hearts dominates Goku, Vegeta, Future Trunks, Piccolo, Android 17, Jiren and Hit, taking them all down with a single blow. Even the duo of the two warriors coming from Universes 6 and 11 are pushed back, as well as Super Saiyan Blue Goku. After using the Gravity Finale technique that puts everyone down once again, Goku proposes to Vegeta to fuse since he does not know when he will be able to use Ultra Instinct again. The prince of the Saiyans accepts after a few seconds of refusal while the other warriors hold Hearts off long enough to buy them some time. Upon Gogeta confronting him, Hearts laughs at the fusion for thinking they have a chance at victory, while Gogeta voices his desire to have some fun with the imminent showdown.

Hearts faces off against Gogeta

Hearts laughs off the idea of Gogeta and tells the others that they are in the way, easily taking them out with his Green Orbs. As Gogeta turns into a Super Saiyan Blue and approaches Hearts, the two begin fighting and Gogeta quickly establishes an upper hand in strength. In turn, Hearts powers up even further but he is not able to land an attack on his opponent. Impressed by Gogeta's power, Hearts asks Gogeta to join him in his goal to kill Zeno for mortal freedom but Gogeta refuses his offer. Hearts then summons a God Meteor into Earth's atmosphere and amplifies it with his power. Immobilising everyone else on the ground below, Hearts begins to send it crashing into them with only Gogeta standing in its way.

Surprisingly enough, the fused warrior is able to hold back the meteor with a blast of his own, forcing Hearts to greatly empower his own attack to cause Gogeta to draw out more of his power in the form of a God Kamehameha. All seems to be at a standstill, until Hit and Jiren arrive to add their energy to Gogeta's Kamehameha, drastically increasing its power to the point where it crashes straight through the God Meteor and destroys it, leaving the other Z Fighters to blast the rubble. As Gogeta rushes him, Hearts questions if his fusees even had limits to begin with before powering up and charging. Both warriors land a hard punch to the face, Gogeta's causing Hearts's visor to shatter. Furious, the Godslayer tries to deal another blow to the fusion before Gogeta evades the punch and smashes his fist into the gem on Hearts's chest, blasting his divine energy straight through him and defeating him once and for all.

Hearts's solemn defeat

As Hearts begins to fade, he smiles and reveals his true intentions for acquiring the Universe Seed to Gogeta - to liberate the world from the lack of freedom inadvertently enforced by Zeno's ability to wipe out universes with a single thought. He further reveals that it was through people like Goku and Vegeta and their limit-breaking power that Hearts found an appreciation for mortals, and with that final declaration, his body and the Universe Seed dissipate into light.

Power

Manga

Hearts easily overwhelms Hit, whose Time-Skip proves ineffectual against him. Thanks to his mind reading, Hearts is able to dodge a serious of blows by Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta. He then dodges a kick from Dyspo and traps his leg in an energy cube.

Later, when Goku faces Hearts he transforms into a Super Saiyan God to battle the foe, Hearts is unable to hit Goku with his barrage of thin beams, however the fight is soon interrupted by Cunber. Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta is able to break Hearts' cube shield, however Hearts manages to escape before Vegeta can continue his attack.

When challenged by Goku and Vegeta in their Super Saiyan Blue forms, Hearts dodges their initial assault and despite being able of foresseing their attacks opts to transform into Super Hearts, at which point he easily defeats the duo with his Energy Cubes, however the cubes are easily broken by Jiren. He takes damage from a blow from Hit that he does not see coming after the assassin found a counter to Hearts' mind reading ability, and Jiren knocks back Super Hearts with a punch after escaping from the energy cube he was trapped in - prompting Lagss to shield him. Hearts then uses the completed Universe Seed in order to transform into the Ultimate Godslayer, and faces off against the combined force of Jiren, Hit and Goku and Vegeta in their Super Saiyan Blue forms.

Anime

When first appearing, he quickly downed Super Saiyan Vegeta and Future Trunks, Hit, Caulifla, Kale, and Cabba simultaneously with Gravity Burst (albeit they were all tired/battered from their previous fight). He then demonstrated his power to instantly destroy a nearby planet. He was also powerful enough to restrain Jiren when he caught him off guard with an increase in gravity to halt his battle with Cunber.

After seeing Goku's Ultra Instinct -Sign- power and learning that it was incomplete, Hearts expressed his desire to see the completed form, wishing to beat Goku at his best, deliberately trying to draw it out of Goku. He is strong enough to restrain Super Saiyan Goku, Super Saiyan Future Trunks, and Super Saiyan God SS Evolved Vegeta with Gravity Burst, and restrained Jiren within an energy cube when the later tried to attack him.

With his transformation as Super Hearts, he easily maintained a fierce offense on Super Saiyan Goku, pushing him back with a barrage of blows so rapidly Goku could not find any openings to fight back. Once Goku decided to turn Super Saiyan Blue, Super Hearts could still fight evenly against Goku, even able to gain the edge over him in their first round of fighting. Although he was overpowered by Goku when they fought again, Hearts still took only minor damage from all of Goku's attacks, which included a barrage of melee attacks and a powerful Kamehameha that sent him flying through the city with devastating force that upturned all in it's path, even able to casually wipe off the dirt from his clothes, and proceeded to successfully pull and paralyze Goku long enough to power-up more from the Universe Seed, after which he quickly defeated Goku with Gravity Fist, knocking him out of Super Saiyan Blue with a single hit.

After becoming the Ultimate Godslayer, his power seems to vastly exceed the assembled foes, as a shockwave from his creation forces Fused Zamasu, base Goku, Hit, and even Jiren back all at once. He is able to effortlessly erase Zamasu from existence, along with destroying an entire city in the blink of an eye. His power was such that the Grand Minister reacted with surprise upon sensing his presence all the way from Zeno's Palace. He easily dominated and badly injured Jiren, Hit, Piccolo, Future Trunks, Android 17, Goku and Vegeta with multiple powerful attacks that they were completely unable to retaliate against and proceeded to casually fight Hit, Jiren, Piccolo, Future Trunks and Android 17 in hand-to-hand combat without breaking a sweat before pushing them aside. His power deemed to be great enough to destroy the entire universe, Goku and Vegeta even decided to fuse into Gogeta to counter him. With his ultimate form Hearts proved to be able to fight evenly with Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta. After powering up to his maximum, Hearts' God Meteor proved too much for Gogeta, who required Jiren and Hit's help to overpower it. Hearts was then defeated when Gogeta shattered the Universe Seed.

Statements by guidebooks and authors

Super Hearts can fight evenly with Super Saiyan Blue Goku.

Video Games

In Dragon Ball Heroes, after finding out about Jiren by reading Hit's mind, Hearts wonders who is stronger between himself and Jiren. Upon finding that he cannot defeat Super Full Power Jiren even with help from Super Saiyan 3 Full Power Cunber and Fused Zamasu, Hearts notes that Jiren is worthy of being known as the strongest in all the universes.

Super Hearts and Super Saiyan 3 Cunber together are at a disadvantage when up against Goku, Jiren, Hit and Golden Meta-Cooler.

Techniques and Special Abilities

• Flight - The ability to fly using ki.
• Ki Blast - The most basic form of an energy attack.
• Heart Reading - Hearts can read one's thoughts. He uses this ability to keep track of the other Core Area Warriors, and also on Hit to find out who the multiverse's strongest warrior was. He also uses it to foresee his opponents' attacks, allowing him to easely dodge or counter their attacks such as Hit's timeskip attacks. However this ability is not flawless as Hit was later able of finding a counter by thinking of an attack before switching to another one while skipping time.

  • Gravity Cage - Hearts is able to create gravity cubes which contain several hundred times Earth's gravity and amplify any shock taken from outside the cage by just as much. Due to the force of the gravity anything trapped inside them for long enough is likely to be annihilated and their energy is then transferred to the Universe Seed. The cubes can be made to be larger than an entire planet. After becoming the Ultimate Godslayer, Hearts becomes capable of even wiping out immortals using his Gravity Cages.
    • Gravity Burst - Hearts traps the foe in a Gravity Cage and then amplifies it to damage his foe.
    • Continuous Energy Bullet - Hearts is able to create energy cubes which transform into thin homing energy beams.
