The God of Destruction's Visit
Despite Beerus's aloof demeanor, Whis confirmed his guess by looking at the sweat dripping from Beerus's forehead.
"It's unbelievable that even Lord Beerus could be defeated? It seems there's a really interesting character among the Supreme Kai. Aren't you going to go check him out, Lord Beerus?"
Whis said with a smile, though he was actually a little surprised.
Beerus is not only God of Destruction, but he is also one of the strongest among the God of Destruction in all 12 universes.
It wouldn't be too surprising if it were said that an anomaly among the Supreme Kai could rival Beerus, but to be able to defeat Beerus is another matter entirely.
This piqued Whis's curiosity: what kind of person was the Supreme Kai of God of Destruction?
"Shut up, Whis! To put it bluntly, it's just a dream! I've had plenty of Prophetic Dream, and not all of them come true!"
Whis smiled slightly and didn't say much. Beerus's Prophetic Dream were indeed not always possible, but that was because Beerus himself intervened.
If Beerus does nothing after having Prophetic Dream, then such Prophetic Dream is almost a completely accurate Future Sight —unless it is interfered with by a power of the same or higher level.
That's not something that can be done simply by having great power; one's life essence must also be extremely high. In other words, the future that Beerus foresaw could only be changed by other Supreme Kai of God of Destruction if he didn't take any action himself. But to truly change it completely, it usually requires the intervention of angels or even the Grand Zeno.
(Hmm... But this time, Lord Beerus himself foresaw a Supreme Kai. I wonder how things will ultimately turn out?)
Thinking of this, Whis's face immediately broke into an amused smile, and he looked at Beerus:
"Lord Beerus, you've finally regained some consciousness. How about we take a trip around the universe? And maybe see if the person you Prophetic Dream has appeared?"
"Whis, I always felt like you had ulterior motives..."
Beerus glanced at his cunning teacher and muttered to himself. His feline instincts told him that Whis was definitely up to no good.
However, Beerus himself was also very concerned about that Prophetic Dream, so in the end, he nodded.
"It's almost finished..."
In the World of the Kais, Vegapunk looked at the enormous tree before him, which resembled a mountain range, with a slight smile on his face.
The giant tree in front of us is a fusion of high technology from Dragon Ball, Hokage, One Piece, One-Punch Man, and some of Vegapunk's clones' past travels. It is almost the pinnacle of Vegapunk's technology.
Inside the giant tree is a clone created by Vegapunk. This clone incorporates a large number of powerful genes, and although its potential is unfathomable, it also has a great deal of genetic conflict.
Even with Vegapunk's technology, the combined efforts of several world-class scientists, and the help of Chakra energy, it would not be an easy task to completely fuse the genes within this clone and achieve a benign mutation.
Therefore, Vegapunk directly used a modified version of the Divine Tree—a super-powerful plant life form created by fusing the genes of the Divine Tree that gave birth to King Kai and Supreme Kai, the flesh and blood nest of the One-Punch Man world, and the Divine Tree of the Naruto world.
The greatest function of this Enhanced God Tree is to soothe various genetic conflicts, nurture life, and increase its potential. At the same time, the World of the Kais belongs to another dimension higher than the entire universe. The God Tree planted here can not only absorb the energy of the World of the Kais, but also extend its roots through the World of the Kais into the universe below, absorbing the energy of the entire universe.
Although the God Tree absorbs energy from lifeless planets due to Vegapunk's limitations, even in a small Milky Way Galaxy, the number of lifeless planets is in the trillions. Over time, the total energy absorbed by the God Tree is astronomical.
Every time the Old Supreme Kai and the East Supreme Kai passed by this God Tree, they were somewhat apprehensive, fearing that one day the God Tree would explode and blow the entire World of the Kais to the heavens. Unfortunately, even if they wanted to stop it, they would only get whipped by the branches of the God Tree.
Vegapunk squinted, quietly sensing the very center of the God Tree. Just as the Otsutsuki Clan and the God Tree share a symbiotic relationship, Vegapunk and the God Tree, though not exactly one entity, still have a strong connection.
Vegapunk can now sense that his clone is nearing full maturity, and its combat power even surpasses that of his current physical body. Because Vegapunk is quite concerned about his body, Vegapunk has avoided any risky modifications to it.
The body nurtured by this God Tree is truly at the forefront of high technology. In fact, more than a dozen similar bodies have already been ruined, and the body in front of us is the most perfect one.
"If your experiment succeeds, hurry up and move this big tree! This thing always gives me a really bad feeling!"
The trembling Old Supreme Kai looked at the giant tree before him and said to Vegapunk with a hint of fear, "Neither the God Tree nor the Flesh Hive is a good thing. After their Supreme Kai Tree's genes were mixed in, it gave this Supreme Kai an even more eerie and twisted feeling."
This is why the Old Supreme Kai couldn't touch the God Tree, let alone defeat Vegapunk; otherwise, there would have been no way he would have allowed Vegapunk to plant such a dangerous tree here.
"Don't worry, don't worry, it'll only take a few days at most... Hmm?!"
Turning his head, Vegapunk keenly sensed that a vast and destructive energy, and an energy carrying a sense of order, were simultaneously descending upon the World of the Kais.
Old Supreme Kai's expression also changed, his face filled with disgust, and he began to curse:
"How did that bastard Beerus end up in the World of the Kais again?"
"By the way, Vegapunk, you haven't fused with the Potara earrings yet. Maybe you should hide for a while! Otherwise, if that guy sees you, he'll definitely keep you at bay and might even find an excuse to seal you away!"
Old Supreme Kai didn't hesitate to speculate on Beerus's personality with the worst possible assumptions. After all, Beerus was such a capricious person that he might get excited when he discovered a strong opponent who could threaten him, but if he found a monster that could crush him in the future, he might have the idea of striking first.
"Too late, the other party had already sensed my anger!"
Vegapunk shook his head. The Supreme Kai has a powerful boost within the World of the Kais, so the Old Supreme Kai could sense the arrival of the God of Destruction in an instant. The God of Destruction's strength far surpasses that of the Supreme Kai, and even within the World of the Kais, he can still sense his ki.
Vegapunk could sense that the God of Destruction's previously nonchalant and calm demeanor had suddenly become intense and filled with fighting spirit.
Clearly, the God of Destruction's sudden surge of fighting spirit and energy was not directed at the old tomato in front of him, or the immature East Supreme Kai, but rather as a challenge to him.
"This is really troublesome... If only it had been a few days later! By then, we could have completely crushed Beerus just by relying on our energy."
Even now, Vegapunk's energy is still several times that of Beerus, but compared to Beerus, who possesses the God of Destruction Power, is a veteran of countless battles, and has also learned a bit of Ultra Instinct, Vegapunk, who is not a qualified warrior, dares not say that he can definitely defeat this cat.
As a huge rift appeared in the void, Beerus walked out with a smile on his face. His gaze first swept over the big tree in front of him twice, and then looked at Vegapunk.
"Damn it, Beerus, what are you doing here?! The World of the Kais doesn't welcome you!"
Old Supreme Kai shouted a couple of things, causing Beerus to pause slightly. He tilted his head, looked at him for a moment, and then spoke:
"Um... who are you? The newly appointed Supreme Kai? Why do you look so old?!"
Upon hearing this, the Old Supreme Kai nearly fainted from anger. Whis, the angel, quickly whispered a few words in Beerus's ear, and Beerus finally came to his senses:
"So you're the Supreme Kai I sealed away... You actually managed to escape from the seal, ahahahaha!"
"Damn it, what are you laughing at! You reckless bastard who casually sealed me away for 1.5 million years!"
Old Supreme Kai roared, his teeth itching with rage as he looked at the wicked God of Destruction before him.
Beerus picked at his ear and waved his hand dismissively:
"That kind of thing can be put however you want, but I didn't come here today for you, you old geezer!"
"Hey kid, are you a new Supreme Kai? Your race shouldn't be Core Person. Are you a Supreme Kai? You seem pretty strong?"
Vegapunk smiled slightly and looked at the God of Destruction before him:
"It's not just that it looks strong, it really is strong. Old Supreme Kai entrusted me to give you a God of Destruction at the next meeting!"
"Huh?! You've got guts, you really dare to say that!"
Beerus gritted his teeth, revealing a fierce expression:
"You think you can defeat me, the God of Destruction? You don't actually think the Supreme Kai and the God of Destruction are the same thing, do you? How arrogant of you!"
Vegapunk rolled his eyes and said calmly:
"If you didn't bristle with fur and look like you wanted to fight me the moment you saw me, I'd actually believe you!"
Given Vegapunk's personality, he wouldn't really want to deal with Beerus until he's reached his limit. But since Beerus has come knocking on his door, he certainly won't back down.
Despite Beerus's seemingly indifferent attitude, he actually focuses almost all his attention on him. Based on his aura sensing, Vegapunk is certain that if he makes the slightest move, Beerus will lose his fighting spirit and start a fight with him.
"Hehehe, you've been discovered. Well, there's nothing I can do about it! I am indeed quite concerned about you, this strange fellow who appears in my Prophetic Dream! You don't seem strange in reality, but in my dreams, you're just a black shadow. Could it be that you haven't become your complete form yet?"
Vegapunk paused for a moment, then shook his head:
"Perhaps it's because I'm not really bound by fate, so the ability to Future Sight is of little use to me. To be honest, the fact that you were able to foresee me is beyond my expectations."
Since the time traveler is not part of the Dragon Ball system, it is naturally very difficult for prophecies to have any effect on the time traveler.
However, everything Vegapunk does is intertwined with the cause and effect of this world. At his current level, he can almost be considered one of the most important pillars in this universe. Perhaps it is because he has reached a certain critical point that Beerus has Prophetic Dream.
"I see. The properties of immune prediction."
Beerus nodded, then a smile appeared on his lips:
"In other words, your current strength is already at its peak!"
Vegapunk raised an eyebrow:
"Even if I'm not at my peak right now, you're not going to let me go, are you? If you want to fight, just say so!"
"Hehehehe! You're right. No matter what state you're in now, I won't let you go. Come and fight me!"
Beerus clenched his fist, revealing a bloodthirsty smile, while Old Supreme Kai immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
"Hey, hey, hey, do you want to destroy the World of the Kais?! This isn't the place for your battles!"
"Don't worry, leave it to me!"
With a casual gesture, Vegapunk created a Black Hole in the void. He walked right into it, and Beerus followed without hesitation.
"Hehehe, what an interesting battle! I'd love to see it!"
Whis covered his mouth and chuckled twice, then took the Staff and walked into the Wormhole. Old Supreme Kai frowned, initially wanting to enter the Wormhole, but ultimately shook his head.
"Forget it, I'd better have some self-awareness. If I dared to go and watch the battle, I might get killed by the aftershocks!"
Just then, sensing the presence East Supreme Kai and Kibito finally teleported here. Turning to look around, the East Supreme Kai, panting, asked:
"Senior, who was that just now? Was it God of Destruction?"
"You sensed it too? That's right, it's that bastard Beerus. But you're a little too late. He's already off to duel with Vegapunk!"
"What?! The God of Destruction is going to duel Vegapunk?"
Upon hearing this, the East Supreme Kai was immediately dumbfounded.
