In the Zeno-governed universe, battles between Gods of Destruction were strictly forbidden.
Elder Kai knew this better than anyone—yet he still said what he said just now. That alone showed just how furious he truly was.
At the edge of Universe Seven, Beerus and his group had blocked Champa's escape route.
The two sides faced each other, the air so heavy it felt like a God-of-Destruction-level clash could break out at any second.
"Champa… you've got some nerve." Beerus's expression had darkened into something terrifying.
Champa flinched.
The fact Beerus wasn't calling him "fat swine" anymore meant his brother was truly enraged.
"You wave around that pathetic bird egg like it's impressive, and I still take you out for instant noodles better than anything you can cook. Haven't I treated you well enough?!"
"And you dare manipulate time to trick us—what a perfect little distraction tactic!"
Every word stabbed straight into Champa's ears. Guilty as he was, he didn't dare talk back.
"What now?"
Seeing Champa remain silent, Beerus's voice turned dry and hoarse.
"Can't even face me?"
"And you're still holding onto Universe Seven's candidate God of Destruction. Don't tell me you really thought you could take him?"
His gaze swept toward Vados.
"Lord Beerus, what are you implying? How am I holding onto your candidate Destroyer?"
Vados, of course, had no fear of Beerus. She casually shifted the pink sack behind her.
Inside the sack, Gran: "..."
"Big Sister Vados," Whis said calmly, "and what exactly is in that pink sack you're hiding?"
Caught red-handed, and still this shameless? Whis was speechless at how brazen his sister was.
Gulp.
Seeing Whis's expression, Vados swallowed nervously. Even her "foolish little brother" seemed genuinely angry.
"H-haha… This? I just… found—"
"Big Sister," Whis said, voice icy cold, "put Gran down."
"..."
Vados fell silent. After a long sigh, she finally released little Gran from the sack.
Champa hesitantly reached out, reluctant to let go, but when he met Beerus's murderous stare, he immediately pulled his hand back.
With Beerus and Whis blocking them, escaping with Gran was impossible.
Force their way through?
Not when Zeno had forbidden Destruction Gods from fighting.
And not when Beerus was far stronger—there was no reality where Champa could win a direct clash.
"Lord Beerus, Mr. Whis, Elder Kai…"
The small Gran climbed out of the sack and quickly flew back toward them.
Halfway through, he turned back and glared fiercely at the two abductors.
"Lord Champa, Miss Vados—I'll remember this!"
He had been training peacefully in the Kai Realm, stabilizing his power. He was one step away from dimensional cultivation.
And suddenly he was dragged away in a pink sack for no reason—who wouldn't be furious?!
"..."
Little brat. Seeing Gran's smug little look, Champa felt a burning urge to smack him.
Vados felt the same—this child was outrageously ungrateful.
Compared to that "terrible man" Whis, wasn't she more beautiful? More elegant? With her guidance, he should be thrilled!
How dare he prefer Whis?!
"Kid, you alright?"
Elder Kai grabbed the boy and examined him thoroughly.
Beerus and Whis looked over as well. Elder Kai nodded to them, as if to say the child was unharmed.
"Phew…"
Beerus and Whis both exhaled deeply in relief.
Seeing their tense expressions soften, warmth surged through Gran's chest.
This—
This was his Lord Beerus and Mr. Whis!
"Lord Beerus, Mr. Whis, don't worry! I'm totally fine!"
Gran didn't complain further. Right now, he cared only about one thing: training to become a true god.
"I've stabilized my power. Can I start dimensional cultivation now?"
"Training can wait."
Beerus pushed Gran aside, then stared coldly at Champa.
…?
Gran froze.
Was Lord Beerus planning to fight Champa? Seriously?!
Champa also stiffened.
He even returned the kid! What more did this bag-of-bones want?!
At that moment, Beerus burst into brilliant purple light.
The terrifying aura swept across Universe Seven, causing the entire universe to tremble.
Gran jumped in shock.
"Lord Beerus! Lord Zeno forbids Destroyers from fighting!"
Shin wiped cold sweat from his forehead.
"Lord Beerus, please calm down! If Zeno finds out, both you and I will die!"
Shin knew now—Destroyer and Supreme Kai lives were linked.
Seeing Beerus completely ignore him, Gran quickly turned to Elder Kai.
"Lord Elder Kai! Please talk Lord Beerus out of this!"
But—
"Talk him out of it? Why would I?" Elder Kai growled through clenched teeth. He was furious as well.
"What??"
Gran and Shin stared in disbelief.
Had everyone gone insane?!
"Whis…"
Gran finally looked to him.
"Big Sister Vados," Whis said, eyes narrowing, expression calm to a terrifying degree,
"several thousand years ago, you and I sparred—and I lost. So after all this time… it's only right we have another match."
Shin: "..."
Gran: "..."
As the person caught in the middle, Gran wanted nothing more than to beat up Champa and Vados too—
but Zeno had forbidden all fights between Destroyers!!
"Bag-of-bones, are you insane?! Do you not understand what it means for Destroyers to fight?!"
Champa's eyes went round.
He never expected Beerus to be this enraged.
Honestly…
He was starting to regret everything.
"You're not seriously thinking this will just blow over, are you?" Beerus's voice turned frigid.
"Lord Beerus," Vados said in disbelief, "you're truly going to fight Lord Champa?"
"Sister, stay out of it. You still haven't answered my request."
Whis's words made Vados's heart jump.
Her foolish little brother, who clearly lost in their last battle thousands of years ago, now dared challenge her again?
Gran was stunned too.
In the manga, Vados had clearly told Son Goku that Whis was slightly weaker than she was.
Even Whis himself had admitted so.
Unless…
Suddenly
"Old man," Beerus said coldly,
"go to the Zeno Palace. Tell them I'm going to fight this fat swine, and ask for permission."
The entire scene exploded in shock.
Gran froze—then excitement began to rise.
He didn't want Beerus and Champa to fight because he feared Zeno's punishment.
But if Zeno approved…
That was an entirely different story!
"Yes!"
Elder Kai could barely restrain himself. Using Instant Transmission, he vanished, heading straight for the Zeno Palace.
Seeing this, Champa's face drained of color.
"Bag-of-bones—you're serious?!"
Vados lowered her voice.
"Whis… this isn't a joke, right?"
But
Moments later, with a sharp sound—Elder Kai returned.
Everyone stared at him.
Their eyes asked the same question:
What did Zeno and the Grand Priest say?
"Lord Zeno and the Grand Priest…" Elder Kai paused, sweeping his gaze across Champa and Vados before breaking into a cold grin.
"They approved!!!!!"
