"You said it yourself, let's pinky swear." Luo Tian extended his little finger.
"Okay, pinky promise." Vados replied perfunctorily.
Luo Tian's little finger and Vados's little finger were tucked together, and their thumbs touched.
"From now on, you are my girlfriend," Luo Tian said seriously.
"Alright, alright," Vados said with a smile, and immediately changed the subject, "Let's find the Super Dragon Balls first."
"Let's search together." Luo Tian nodded.
With the Super Dragon Radar, finding the Dragon Balls becomes relatively easy.
It only took a whole day for Vados to gather all three Super Dragon Balls from Universe 7 outside the Solar System.
The next day, Vados took Luo Tian to the Universe 6 again.
The Super Dragon Radar confirmed that there are indeed four Super Dragon Balls in Universe 6.
With Luo Tian by his side, Vados spent another whole day transporting the four Super Dragon Balls to the vicinity of the Solar System in Universe 7.
All seven Super Dragon Balls have been collected.
"I'm going to summon the Dragon God." Vados took a deep breath, her expression showing a hint of excitement.
Luo Tian nodded, his expression filled with anticipation.
That's Dragon God!
Should I take this opportunity to make a wish to the Dragon God, something like immortality?
However, Luo Tian immediately abandoned the idea.
Why would I need immortality?
The existence of immortality is utterly meaningless.
They are nothing in the face of God.
Moreover, even if you are immortal, if you are sealed in a certain location, it is worse than death.
Or they might torture you relentlessly, and you'll truly experience the endless pain that comes with immortality.
Therefore, in Luo Tian's view, improving one's own strength is the key.
Before one's strength reaches a certain level, immortality is a joke.
Besides, becoming a true angel is essentially a form of immortality.
Angels never grow old.
The only way for an angel to die is through a full-scale battle.
But Luo Tian is different. After all, in the true sense, even if Luo Tian becomes a true angel, he would never die in battle.
At this very moment, in this vast starry sky, seven Super Dragon Balls, shimmering with golden light, have come together.
Golden light shone across the starry sky, making it shine brilliantly.
"Come forth, Dragon God, grant my wish..." Vados parted her lips slightly, preparing to summon the Dragon God in the language of the gods.
However, at that moment, the Scepter in Vados's hand trembled slightly.
Vados paused for a moment, glanced at the Crystal Ball on the Scepter, and swallowed the rest of her words.
"Oh dear... it's the Grand Minister contacted me..." Vados muttered to herself, a little surprised.
Luo Tian's expression also changed slightly.
Grand Minister?
Why did the Grand Minister suddenly contact Vados?
He should know that we've already collected all the Super Dragon Balls, right?
Luo Tian knew very well that there was nothing the Grand Minister didn't know.
I wonder if he noticed when I kissed his daughter?
Please don't target me at this time.
I can't beat you!
"Don't speak yet..." Vados told Luo Tian, then suddenly released him and vanished in a flash.
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, Vados distanced herself from Luo Tian and appeared in another location, immediately contacting the Grand Minister through her Scepter.
"Oh my, Grand Minister, it's been a long time!" Vados greeted with a grin.
"Vados, don't use the Super Dragon Balls yet, I have other uses for them." The Grand Minister gave the order to Vados without much expression on his face.
"Oh dear... We finally managed to collect Super Dragon Balls, and the Grand Minister just snatched them away like that," Vados sighed.
"How dare you say that..." The Grand Minister's face darkened, and he reprimanded her sternly, "I originally planned to have Luo Tian train with Kusu, but you stole him from me..."
"My apologies... But it wasn't me who stole Mr. Luo Tian; it's just that he felt the Universe 6 was more suitable for him," Vados weakly argued.
"I don't object to you taking Luo Tian away, but I hope you can guide him properly and help him become a true angel as soon as possible." The Grand Minister wasn't angry; he simply gave Vados a brief instruction.
"No problem, no problem, I will definitely teach him well." Vados nodded. "And I have already taught him the true Ultra Instinct."
"That's good." The Grand Minister said calmly.
"But speaking of which, Grand Minister, this is the first time I've heard of a human who has cultivated Angelic Power. I wonder how he did it? Could he be Grand Minister's illegitimate son?" Vados asked thoughtfully.
Grand Minister: "..."
The Grand Minister's face darkened further.
"No respect for elders..." the Grand Minister scolded, and he had no choice but to answer truthfully, "He obtained the Angelic Power of the Angel Linglong, which is why he has this opportunity now."
"Angel Linglong?" Vados was slightly taken aback.
"Do you remember what the Angel Linglong said before she disappeared?" the Grand Minister asked.
"I vaguely remember... She said she left her purest Angelic Power in a certain universe, waiting for a destined person to resonate with it." Vados pondered, seemingly recalling something from a long time ago, and added, "And she also said that this destined person might become a true angel through cultivation... That was all a very, very long time ago."
"Yes, that's it." The Grand Minister nodded in satisfaction.
"So... in other words, Luo Tian is the destined one?" Vados understood.
"Another noteworthy point is that the Universe 18 has already recovered its initial form," the Grand Minister dropped another bombshell.
"Oh my god... This is incredible... Has the Universe 18, which had been erased, been restored?" Vados' bright eyes sparkled, also quite surprised.
"It's only a rough outline that's been restored," the Grand Minister added.
"Then... what about the Angel Linglong?" Vados asked again.
"It's also in the recovery period." The Grand Minister replied truthfully, and then pondered, "So, I plan to select a God of Destruction and Supreme Kai for the newly recovered Universe 18, along with an Apprentice Angel, so they can go there to develop and gain experience."
Vados didn't respond, knowing that the Grand Minister definitely had more to say.
"Do you have any good suggestions?" the Grand Minister asked with a smile.
"Why pair her with an Apprentice Angel? Hasn't the Angel Linglong already recovered?" Vados asked, puzzled.
"Linglong is still recovering, Angelic Power is very weak. She is not yet capable of taking on the heavy responsibility of governing a universe." The Grand Minister shook his head. "Therefore, we need to select an Apprentice Angel to work with her."
"If we're talking about Apprentice Angel, Merus is naturally the most suitable," Vados replied. "As for the God of God of Destruction and the Supreme Kai, we can choose from our twelve universes."
"Merus is not suitable yet." The Grand Minister gently shook his head.
Vados was slightly taken aback.
"He can't even distinguish between the most basic good and evil, so he's not suitable to be an angel of the universe." The Grand Minister shook his head again.
"Grand Minister, you're practically calling him Mr. Luo Tian directly." Vados wiped his sweat.
"That's what I think, but he's too weak right now... so you need to train him properly." The Grand Minister's expression turned serious, and he emphasized it in a solemn tone.
"I understand. Luo Tian's Angelic Power comes from the Angel Linglong, so making him an Apprentice Angels of the Universe is the best choice." Vados understood immediately and quickly grasped the Grand Minister's meaning.
"As for the choice between the God of God of Destruction and the Supreme Kai... I know he already has a God of Destruction being trained by his side. Find another opportunity to talk to him about the Supreme Kai." The Grand Minister issued the order to Vados.
"Sure, sure... I'll keep an eye on this for him too." Vados nodded in agreement, then casually asked, "But isn't it a bit too proactive to just hand over the management of the Universe 18 to him? Won't that kid get too cocky?"
"Have you ever heard of tenders in the human realm?" the Grand Minister suddenly asked.
Vados: "???"
Vados looked completely bewildered.
What does that mean?
"To select a suitable partner for a project, a bidding process is used." The Grand Minister smiled. "Sometimes, even though the partner for a project has already been decided, other companies will still vote to compete. They call this kind of bidding a dummy bid."
Vados: "..."
"Does the Grand Minister mean that we should also find a few dummy bidders?" Vados quickly understood.
"That's exactly what I mean." The Grand Minister nodded slightly. "Let's set it for six months from now. I believe that after six months of growth, Luo Tian's strength should improve significantly, and the purity of his Angelic Power should also increase considerably."
"Okay, okay," Vados agreed, then asked, "But what does this have to do with the Super Dragon Balls?"
"When the time comes, listen to my instructions. Your main task is to nurture Luo Tian well over the next six months and strive to get his Angelic Power purity to reach 20," the Grand Minister commanded in a commanding tone.
"His Angelic Power is only 10% pure right now..." Vados suddenly felt that this task was a bit too heavy. "Maybe I should send him to the Universe 10."
Grand Minister: "..."
The Grand Minister didn't want to talk anymore and ended the call directly.
You've already taken him away, and you still have the nerve to send him back to Universe 10?
Vados stared silently at the Crystal Ball, which had lost contact with her, and fell into deep thought.
In half a year... Luo Tian's Angelic Power purity was increased to 20.
This is a very tough job.
I should have known better than to fight with Sister Kusu.
Vados shook her head helplessly.
Luo Tian flew over immediately after he realized that Vados had finished her call.
Luo Tian was sensible enough not to peek at the video call between the Grand Minister and Vados.
That's just asking for trouble.
"What's wrong, Vados? You look so troubled," Luo Tian asked. "What did your father say?"
Vados: "..."
"Merus told you that the Grand Minister is my father?" Vados turned to look at Luo Tian.
"We can talk about anything," Luo Tian said with a slight smile.
"It's not a big deal... but we probably can't use these seven Super Dragon Balls for the time being. The Grand Minister has other uses for them." Vados looked in the direction of the seven Super Dragon Balls.
Luo Tian also looked at the seven Super Dragon Balls that were twinkling in the starry sky.
Each Super Dragon Balls is as big as the Earth.
It shines exceptionally brightly in this starry sky.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, something astonishing happened to Luo Tian.
All seven Super Dragon Balls vanished in an instant.
Yes, it just disappeared right under Luo Tian's nose.
The golden starry sky instantly turned back to black.
"Who stole the Super Dragon Balls?" Luo Tian roared in fury.
Vados: "..."
"Besides the Grand Minister, who else has the ability to teleport seven Super Dragon Balls?" Vados glanced at Luo Tian.
Is it appropriate for you to use the word "steal"?
"But then again, when I grow up and marry you, the Grand Minister will be my father-in-law, right?" Luo Tian pondered.
Vados didn't want to talk anymore.
What kind of logic is that?
But what you said seems to make some sense.
"The Super Dragon Balls that we finally managed to collect are just gone like that." Luo Tian sighed for a while. "It seems that if we want to move Earth... we'll have to wait a little longer."
"Let's wait a bit, a year or two won't make a difference," Vados replied, gazing at Luo Tian. "Once your Iron Man Armor is finished, we'll return to Universe 6 immediately. Didn't you want to become a true angel through training? I'll give you a good period of time to nurture you!"
"Mmm." Luo Tian nodded vigorously.
"Give me three months. Can you raise the purity of the Angelic Power to 20?" Vados asked.
Luo Tian: "..."
"No." Luo Tian shook his head decisively.
Luo Tian was quite clear about his cultivation of Angelic Power.
The purification of Angelic Power is similar to leveling up in a game.
The further you go, the slower the level increases.
If only all levels could be upgraded as quickly as the previous ones.
Want to increase Angelic Power to level 20?
Luo Tian estimates it will take at least a year.
You want me to improve to 20 in three months?
"Actually, I've thought of another way..." Luo Tian suddenly had a brilliant idea, "Perhaps it's really possible to quickly increase the purity of my Angelic Power."
"What method?" Vados was taken aback.
"I'll take some from you," Luo Tian suggested.
Vados: "..."
Your idea... it sounds a little strange to me.
"No." Vados refused without the slightest hesitation.
"You're so stingy!" Luo Tian sighed.
Two more days have passed.
Dr. Briefs has finally succeeded in creating Iron Man's armor.
"Is it enough to just press the red button on this watch?" Luo Tian asked excitedly, looking at the watch on his wrist.
"Yes," Dr. Briefs nodded.
"Luo Tian, hurry up and try it! I'm participating too, and I really want to see what you look like in the armor." Bulma blinked her bright eyes, her expression excited.
Broly stood by with an expectant look on his face.
Vados stood at a distance and made no comment.
"Smack!"
Luo Tian pressed the red button on his watch.
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, Luo Tian was covered in a layer of red armor.
The Red Battle Armor was almost modeled after Iron Man's design.
Of course, the material of this Red Battle Armor is many times better than that of Iron Man's armor.
Moreover, once you put on this brand-new armor, your strength will increase by 50 times.
"Da! Da! Da!"
Luo Tian walked to the mirror and looked at himself carefully. He looked a lot like Iron Man.
Not bad, not bad.
He truly deserves to be called the most outstanding scientist on Earth.
In addition, Luo Tian did indeed feel that his strength had increased 50 times after putting on this armor.
That's 50 times the strength!
This is a really good product.
"So handsome!" Bulma clapped her hands excitedly, her ponytail swaying back and forth.
Broly looked at the new armor with envy.
It is indeed much better looking than the previous robot.
The old model looked silly.
"Oh my... this design is actually quite nice," Vados simply commented.
"I've adjusted the height of this suit to around 1.8 meters," Dr. Briefs explained. "This is more suitable for your future height."
"If you grow to be under 1.8 meters tall, that'll be a tragedy," Vados chuckled to herself.
"Then I'll grow another 5 centimeters taller using the Dragon Balls." Luo Tian rolled his eyes.
Can't you speak properly?
However, Luo Tian didn't know exactly how tall he could grow.
It doesn't matter anymore.
That's not the point.
Although the armor's height has reached 1.8 meters, Luo Tian doesn't feel any discomfort controlling it. It's as if it's an extension of his own body, possessing boundless power.
Luo Tian slowly raised the mechanical arm of his left hand.
"Smack!"
A button pops up on the robotic arm.
Luo Tian pressed a button with his mechanical hand.
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, Luo Tian's armor disappeared and merged into the watch.
Luo Tian immediately reverted to his original child form.
Of course, Luo Tian also reinforced the watch with his Angelic Power, making it absolutely impossible for it to suddenly explode during battle.
"Thank you, Doctor," Luo Tian said sincerely.
"You're welcome. These strange things you brought will be of great help to my future scientific research," Dr. Briefs said with a smile, adjusting his glasses.
"Well... we should head back now." Vados said goodbye. "Thank you for taking care of me this past week, Doctor. I'm sorry to have bothered you."
"You're too kind. Come visit sometime," Dr. Briefs said with a smile.
"Luo Tian, don't go, come with me to school... I'm about to start elementary school." Bulma said reluctantly, holding Luo Tian's hand.
Luo Tian hurriedly broke free from Bulma's hand and quickly pounced on Vados's back.
What you said really hurt me.
I've already graduated from university, and you still want me to go to elementary school with you?
You might as well kill me!
Isn't it great to follow Vados?
"Hmph! I hate you!" Bulma pouted, looking sullen.
"I absolutely refuse to go to elementary school. We Saiyan don't learn that." Luo Tian shook his head. "Bulma, you better study hard!"
Bulma snorted, then immediately turned to look at Broly.
Broly's lips twitched slightly, and he decisively replied with two words: "No!"
Bulma was speechless.
"Then tell me, Luo Tian, when are you coming back to play with me?" Bulma asked Luo Tian, her bright eyes sparkling.
"What's the best age for a girl again?" Luo Tian pondered.
"Oh dear... For Earthlings, it should be 16 years old, right?" Vados answered the question from the side.
"Then I'll come back to play with you when you turn 16." Luo Tian stepped forward and gave Bulma a hug.
"You have to keep your word." Bulma nodded seriously. "I'll wait for you to grow up and marry me."
Luo Tian: "..."
When I grow up, I want to marry Vados.
I'm not going to marry you!
"We'll see about that later," Luo Tian mumbled, then jumped back onto Vados and wrapped his tail around her slender waist.
"Uh... when I grow up, I'm going to marry Cheelai..." Broly scratched his head and muttered to himself, his face flushed.
Immediately afterwards, Broly stood obediently beside Vados.
"Well then... let's go." Vados tapped her Scepter lightly on the ground.
"Smack!"
A dazzling light, as brilliant as a star, quickly enveloped the three of them.
"Call out!"
Vados took Luo Tian and Broly into the sky and disappeared in an instant.
Bulma looked up at the direction where Luo Tian had disappeared, her eyes filled with reluctance.
"Bulma, Luo Tian is destined to become a god," Briefs remarked.
"Then I want to become Goddess," Bulma said.
Briefs: "..."
Two hours later.
Vados, along with Luo Tian and Broly, appeared at the edge of the Universe 7 and successfully entered the Void Realm.
As she passed through the Universe 18, Vados glanced quickly in that direction, but soon looked away.
Even though it was just a quick glance, Vados was able to clearly see the newly restored Universe 18.
That universe is indeed still too small.
Just as the Grand Minister said, it's only a prototype.
Apart from a star and a white planet, there is nothing else in the entire universe.
Such a universe still needs a long time to develop.
Logically speaking, shouldn't the newly restored Universe 18 need Supreme Kai the most?
Isn't it a bit too early to choose the God of Destruction now?
Vados didn't think much of it.
Angel Clan dislike causing trouble.
That's something the Grand Minister should consider; in Vados's opinion, it has little to do with her.
Now, Vados' only regret is that she still has to go through all the trouble of teaching Luo Tian to hone his Angelic Power.
"Vados, is that a newly born universe over there?" Luo Tian pointed to the Universe 18 in the distance and asked casually.
When Luo Tian and Merus traveled to this area before, they also discovered that strange universe.
At that time, Luo Tian and Merus even went to that white planet to stay and take a look.
Moreover, Luo Tian also sensed the presence of Angelic Power on that white planet.
"Yes, yes," Vados replied simply, "Sometimes new universes are indeed born."
"So, what are you going to do with the newly born universe?" Luo Tian asked.
"That's something for the Grand Minister to consider; we don't need to worry about it," Vados chuckled.
Luo Tian: "..."
They traveled forward for a while longer.
"Smack!"
Vados successfully led Luo Tian and Broly into the Universe 6.
"Welcome to Universe 6." Vados said with a smile.
Broly looked around in a pretentious manner, as if he could tell which universe this was.
"By the way, what did you say before?" Luo Tian asked, "You said that the Universe 7 and the Universe 6 are Mirror Universe, is that what you meant?"
"Yes," Vados nodded.
"So, there are Saiyan in Universe 6 too, right?" Luo Tian asked knowingly.
"Yes," Vados replied. "However, the Saiyan in Universe 6 are different from Saiyan in Universe 7. Most Saiyan in Universe 7 are rather evil, which is why they ultimately met their demise. But it's different in Universe 6. The Saiyan in Universe 6 are more righteous and often try to maintain peace in the universe."
"Can you take me to see the Saiyan's planet?" Luo Tian immediately became interested.
Now that we've come to Universe 6, we should at least visit the Planet Sadala in Universe 6, right?
It would be a shame not to go to Planet Sadala after all the journey I took to the Dragon Balls world.
"Let's go when we have the chance." Vados's expression was rather serious. "What you should be doing right now is purifying your Angelic Power as quickly as possible, instead of wandering around aimlessly. Once your Angelic Power reaches a certain level, you can go and take a look at the Saiyan planet Sadala yourself."
"If there's any truth to what you're saying, then it's not entirely without merit," Luo Tian said thoughtfully.
Vados: "???"
You've confused me.
"Alright, let's go back to your place first." Luo Tian nodded. "But I'm letting you know beforehand, from today onwards, your bed is mine."
Vados: "..."
"Oh dear, you're probably going to be disappointed. We angels never sleep, so I don't have a bed," Vados chuckled.
Luo Tian remained silent.
"Did you ever see me sleeping when you were on Earth?" Vados asked with a smile.
"So what do you do at night?" Luo Tian suddenly became interested.
"Watching TV," Vados said with a smile. "I have to say, TV programs on Earth are quite interesting, especially watching TV while eating sunflower seeds. It's really enjoyable."
"I'll give you a massage next time, you'll definitely enjoy it even more." Luo Tian looked at Vados's body and swallowed.
"Okay, what you said seems to make a lot of sense." Vados didn't think about it any further.
"What kind of TV do you watch? I remember that the programs at night are usually not very healthy." Luo Tian said thoughtfully.
"What does a little kid know about health or not..." Vados scolded softly.
"Let's watch it together next time," Luo Tian suggested.
Vados stopped talking and quickened her pace.
About half an hour later, another half hour passed.
"Smack!"
Vados tore through the void and entered the realm of the God of Destruction's Realm.
"See that inverted triangle planet over there? That's Champa's Planet," Vados explained to Luo Tian and Broly, pointing to an inverted pyramid planet ahead.
"Mmm." Luo Tian nodded and buried his head in Vados's neck, taking a deep breath.
Vados: "..."
A brief silence.
Vados immediately looked at Broly.
Broly: "???"
"Mr. Broly, just so you know... Lord Champa is the Gods of Destruction of the Universe 6, so don't go and tear him apart." Vados emphasized this point.
Broly nodded forcefully.
I'm not stupid!
I can't beat the God of Destruction yet.
That God of Destruction from Universe 3 last time... gave me a really bad beating.
I must keep a low profile.
I'll talk about it when my strength surpasses that of the God of Destruction.
"Call out!"
Vados, with Luo Tian and Broly, slowly descended onto the Champa's Planet.
"Lord Champa, I'm back!" Vados shouted.
However, there was no response from the planet.
"Oh dear... Lord Champa isn't home. He might have gone out to play, or he might have gone to work." Vados didn't seem to care.
After landing, Broly immediately looked around curiously.
Luo Tian did have some understanding of Champa's Planet, having watched the anime and read the manga before.
The Champa's Planet and Planet Beerus look similar, both being inverted triangular planets with several bright suns and moons above them.
No, you can't say they're all suns. Some are decorative planets, mainly for aesthetic purposes.
The planet's surface was covered with blue lawns, giving it the feel of a paradise on earth.
"Vados, show me around your boudoir," Luo Tian.
Vados: "..."
Universe 7, Galactic Patrol Headquarters.
Merus has returned with Majin Buu.
"Merus, you're still alive? We all thought you were dead." Jaco stepped forward and greeted him warmly. "I cried for days because of this, and I even gained a lot of weight when I attended your memorial service."
Merus: "..."
Merus glanced at Majin Buu.
According to Broly's character design, shouldn't you have gone up and pinned Jaco to the ground and rubbed him to the ground at this moment?
However, Majin Buu remained unmoved.
Merus felt a pang of heartache.
Just then.
"A ritual? I want some too." Majin Buu patted his stomach, suddenly realizing something.
Merus was completely speechless.
What kind of God of Destruction have I raised?
It seems that raising a God of Destruction is no easy task.
