"Google is going to increase or fully acquire Uber."
Talk about a "God's View", they'd be literally begging for regulator's attention if they tried buying Uber

How so? Regulatory attention of mergers isn't based on prospective dominance of markets which don't yet exist, in most jurisdictions.
Do they? Specifically, do they have pricing power? Market share (even superficially dominant share) where competitors or substitute services are present and business moves in response to relative price changes isn't market power.
Google and uber don't directly compete in many areas.
In order for regulators to stop the deal, there would have to be a competitive concern.
The only area that they "compete" in is self driving cars. But that market literally doesn't exist yet, so it is a hard argument to make that this would be anticompetitive.
