Editing Crimson-Masked Saiyan (section)

==Biography==

===Background===
Crimson shared the same backstory as Goku Black until a critical intervention by Fu. Fu contacted Crimson and revealed the constraints of his current trajectory, warning him of his eventual defeat due to the limitations of his body. He also provided Crimson with a Time Breaker Mask. To avoid this doomed future, Crimson diverged from his original path by traveling across various parallel timelines instead of collaborating with Future Zamasu.

In these timelines, Crimson faced and defeated 99 different versions of Goku, including those who had achieved formidable transformations such as Super Saiyan 3, Super Saiyan God, and Super Saiyan Blue in the anime. Notably, in the manga, he even fought against the 86th Goku, who had attained Ultra Instinct Sign. Through these battles, Crimson aimed to fully master his stolen body and unlock its ultimate potential.

During this period, it was also revealed that Crimson had resumed Project Zero Mortals, systematically exterminating all mortal life in multiple timelines. Furthermore, he used Fu's assistance to his advantage, manipulating Fu to further his own agenda, which possibly included acquiring the Time Breaker Mask. Eventually, Crimson entered the Pseudo Universe once it was created, while Fu found himself trapped in the Time Labyrinth alongside Xeno Vegito.

====New Space-Time War Saga====

=====Crimson's Machinations=====
During Goku and Hearts' battle with Frieza and Meta-Cooler, Crimson observes from above, encouraging the fight to further his own plans. He eventually infuses Frieza and Meta-Cooler with the Dark Dragon Balls, enhancing their power. In the anime, he takes pleasure in Broly's chaotic entrance into the battle, describing it as both "horrid and wonderful." However, his mood shifts to irritation when the Warrior in Black intervenes, stealing the Dark Dragon Balls. Crimson, who remains enigmatic with his masked identity, denies any connection to Fu when questioned by Hearts and disappears mysteriously.

In the manga, Crimson reveals himself to fight Goku directly. Goku quickly identifies him as Goku Black. After transforming into Super Saiyan Rosé, Crimson defeats Goku, despite Goku using Ultra Instinct Sign. He then overpowers Super Hearts and Vegeta. While poised to deliver a lethal blow to Goku, Crimson is interrupted by a weakened Evil Saiyan Turles. Crimson eliminates Turles but not before Turles throws a Dragon Ball to Vegeta.

=====The Unveiling of the Crimson-Masked Saiyan=====
In the anime, Crimson later oversees a battle between Turles, Cumber, and Vegeta, urging them to fight. When Goku and Hearts arrive, Crimson reveals his identity as Black by transforming into Super Saiyan Rosé. Despite their best efforts, Goku and Hearts are swiftly defeated by Crimson. Vegeta attempts to fight but fails to maintain his Berserk-Controlled form, forcing him to retreat. Crimson prepares a devastating attack to destroy Vegeta and the pseudo–Planet Vegeta, but Goku intervenes using Ultra Instinct Sign, managing to outmaneuver Crimson and deliver powerful blows.

Irritated yet intrigued by the prospect of further growth, Crimson uses his Finger Beams to bombard the Pseudo Universe's Planet Vegeta, taunting Goku and savoring the planet's destruction. His frustration escalates when Cell arrives to save Goku's group and Turles disrupts his attacks. After eliminating Turles in retaliation, Crimson expresses his disdain for the interference of the dead and other meddlers like Demigra and Shroom, leaving the pseudo-Planet Vegeta to its fate.

=====The Plan for Universal Eradication=====
Crimson's ultimate plan becomes clearer when the Warrior in Black confronts him, revealing a Goku-like appearance under his hood. They engage in a fierce battle, and Crimson transforms into Super Saiyan Rosé 2, explaining his intention to use the Pseudo Universe to wipe out all mortals in both the Pseudo Universe and Universe 7 without interference from gods. The Warrior in Black holds his ground in Super Saiyan form, but Crimson's transformation into Super Saiyan Rosé 3 gives him the upper hand. As Crimson attempts to finish him off, Perfected Ultra Instinct Goku and Berserk-Controlled Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta arrive, turning the tide.

=====The Final Confrontation=====
Goku and Vegeta fight Crimson, initially gaining the upper hand. Goku blasts Crimson into a building but soon runs out of energy, dropping out of his Ultra Instinct state. Crimson's mask is damaged, weakening him, but he absorbs energy from the Pseudo Universe to heal and restore his power. He then powers up to Super Saiyan Rosé Full Power, significantly increasing his strength and shattering most of his mask. Despite Vegeta's attempts, Crimson reverts him to base form with a single powerful blast.

Golden Meta-Cooler and Frieza arrive to challenge Crimson but are easily repelled. Crimson summons Omega Shenron using a Scroll of Eternity, who then attacks Meta-Cooler and Frieza. With Cumber and Hearts engaging Omega Shenron, Goku and Vegeta confront Crimson directly. Crimson gathers more energy from the Pseudo Universe to create fake mortals and further enhance his power. However, Golden Meta-Cooler and Frieza's attacks buy Goku and Vegeta enough time to fuse into Gogeta.

As Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta, they battle Crimson, who can heal rapidly thanks to the Pseudo Universe's energy. Gogeta powers up to Super Saiyan God SS Evolved to outmatch Crimson's healing ability, landing devastating blows that overwhelm Crimson. Shocked by his body's failure to heal as expected, Crimson is enraged at the prospect of being overpowered by a Saiyan. He charges at Gogeta but is struck down, breaking the remainder of his mask and disintegrating his body, thus ending Crimson's threat.

With Crimson's demise, Omega Shenron is sent back to his original timeline. In the manga, similar events occur, though Gogeta defuses before the final strike, leaving Crimson to be finished off by a combined energy wave from Goku and the Warrior in Black.
