Jiren, Will You Become a God of Destruction?

"Should we let Mr. Jiren run for the election?" Marcarita sighed softly and shook her head. "I'm afraid Mr. Jiren might not agree. He refused to become the disciple of the God of Destruction back then... so he has no interest in the position of the God of Destruction."

"You're absolutely right. It seems we have no choice but to send Toppo." Belmod gritted her teeth. "This is a bit tricky. If he gets chosen... what will happen to our universe if my disciple, whom I've trained for so long, goes to another universe to God of Destruction?"

"Our universe can only choose a new disciple of the God of Destruction," Marcarita suggested.

"Then contact Toppo and have that guy come over. Tell him to get ready," Belmod instructed.

"Yes, Belmod." Marcarita nodded.

A brief silence.

"Anyway, let's talk to Jiren. What if he's interested? Just because he didn't want to be God of Destruction back then doesn't mean he doesn't want to be God of Destruction now." Belmod a moment and said to Marcarita.

"So, shall we go see Mr. Jiren?" Marcarita asked softly, seeking Belmod's opinion.

"No need, just contact him directly. Whether he agrees or not is just a matter of a word, isn't it?" Belmod shook her head.

"Okay, I'll contact Mr. Jiren right now." Marcarita nodded slightly, took the Scepter, and immediately contacted Jiren through the Crystal Ball on the Scepter.

Universe 11, Planet Pride.

This planet is the home base of the Pride Troopers.

Jiren is a member of Pride Troopers, but not the captain.

The captain of the Pride Troopers is Toppo, and the vice-captain Dyspo.

Toppo is Belmod's apprentice and also the Apprentice God of Destruction of Universe 11.

Jiren wasn't interested in the captain's position, so he just stayed as an ordinary member of the Pride Troopers.

However, all the members of the Pride Troopers know who the soul of this team is!

He is Jiren!

Legend has it that his energy level is comparable to that of the Lord God of Destruction.

Jiren lives in a mountain village, a place with a poetic atmosphere reminiscent of "the bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring flows over the rocks."

At this moment, Jiren was sitting in the courtyard with his eyes closed, resting.

For Jiren, this is also a form of training.

Just then, a voice suddenly came to Jiren's mind.

Jiren did not panic. Instead, he slowly opened his eyes, his gaze unusually calm.

"Is this Lady Marcarita?" Jiren asked.

"Yes, Mr. Jiren," Marcarita replied, and then spoke about the election for the God of Destruction.

"Sorry, not interested." Jiren replied decisively.

"Oh dear... So much time has passed, and you still have no interest in becoming God of Destruction?" Marcarita smiled.

Jiren didn't speak, but the meaning in his eyes was already very clear.

"Yes, I will pass on your Belmod Master Wei Mei. I apologize for the intrusion." Marcarita said politely.

"This is troublesome," Jiren replied, a rare occurrence for him.

Because Jiren knew very well how special this woman's identity was.

Avoid provoking others if possible.

After ending the call, Marcarita shrugged at Belmod Mei.

"I knew it would be like this... Oh well, let's contact Toppo and have him come to the God of Destruction's Realm as soon as possible," Belmod suggested.

"Okay." Marcarita nodded and immediately contacted Toppo, explaining the details of the election for God of Destruction.

Upon hearing Marcarita's words, Toppo fell into deep thought, a hint of conflict appearing in his eyes.

After ending the call, Toppo looked at the members of the Pride Troopers present, his expression full of reluctance.

If I were to go to the Universe 18 and become the God of Destruction, what would happen to my lovely teammates?

"Captain, what happened?" Vice-Captain Dyspo asked hurriedly.

"The Universe 18 is electing God of Destruction, from across the entire universe..." Toppo sighed helplessly, "Belmod wants me to participate... If I'm elected, I'll be separated from you by an entire universe!"

"Captain, don't worry, once you become the Gods of Destruction of the Universe 18, I will be the captain of the Pride Troopers!" Dyspo laughed heartily.

"You... you're probably just hoping I'll leave already, aren't you?" Toppo rolled his eyes.

"Just kidding," Dyspo said with a laugh. "But Captain, you don't need to think so much. If you really become God of Destruction, then our Pride Troopers can proudly say that our former captain was the greatest Lord God of Destruction! When we really need help, we can just contact you, and you'll definitely come to our aid, won't you?"

"You're right." Toppo nodded thoughtfully.

The other team members echoed this sentiment, agreeing with the vice-captain's assessment.

"Besides, Captain, don't forget, we still have Jiren." Dyspo smiled mysteriously again, mentioning another person's name as well.

Toppo: "..."

You could have completely omitted that last sentence.

That's as if even if I became God of Destruction, I wouldn't be as good as Jiren.

"Okay, I'll give it a try!" Toppo announced loudly with a confident smile.

"I wonder what level the contestants from other universes are at. They're probably not as good as the captain."

"Our captain is the disciple of the Lord God of Destruction, and also Apprentice God of Destruction. There is absolutely no way anyone could be a match for our captain!"

"Go, Captain! Strive to become a true God of Destruction as soon as possible! Isn't this your ideal and goal all along?!"

Many of the team members present cheered for Toppo.

The Universe 3, the God of Destruction's Realm.

"What? The election for the Gods of Destruction of the Universe 18?" Mule gritted his teeth and said hatefully, "If someone hadn't killed my son, he would definitely have become the new God of Destruction of Universe 18! Damn it, who did this?"

The angel Campari stood silently to the side.

"Hey, Campari, are you really not able to find out?" Mule pressed Campari again.

It's worth mentioning that Mule wandered around the Universe 7 for a long time and even went to the Underworld to conduct investigations.

Unfortunately, Mule's son had already had his soul cleansed and reincarnated.

Mule was also at a loss for what to do.

When King Yama, heard that Mule was the Gods of Destruction of the Universe, he suddenly came to his senses.

No wonder the Book of Life and Death only says "ominous".

So that's the reason.

King Yama, immediately turned around and glared fiercely at the staff behind him.

It's all because this kid said that the son of the God of Destruction was an insignificant figure, so he didn't even bother to record his life and cause of death in the Book of Life and Death and Death.

I'm so pissed off...

You almost killed me.

Fortunately Mule didn't dare to be too arrogant in the Underworld.

After all, this place belongs to the Underworld of the Universe 7 and is not under the jurisdiction of Mule.

Mule slapped King Yama, knocking him to the ground, and then left the Underworld in a fit of rage.

Later, Mule searched the Universe 7 again, but naturally found nothing, so he had no choice but to return to the Universe 3.

"Mule, I really don't know." Campari shrugged.

"Hmph, it must have been done by that trainee Apprentice God of Destruction next to that Apprentice Angel... My son was killed, and only half a year later, a God of Destruction election popped up in the Universe 18. No matter how I think about it, I feel that it has something to do with that guy." Mule said coldly and viciously, one hand resting on the large robot next to him.

This robot is Mosco.

"So... is our universe going to participate in the competition?" Campari asked.

"Participate? Of course we'll participate!" Mule sneered. "I highly doubt that the Apprentice Angel's God of Destruction will participate in the competition. This time, I'm determined to find him and get to the bottom of this."

Campari: "..."

"Campari, I know you are both angels, and your relationship is somewhat special. I understand that you don't want to betray him." Mule took a deep breath and said earnestly, "But could you please not stop me from investigating? You've practically watched Merus grow up, haven't you?"

"What do you need me to do, Mule?" Campari asked helplessly.

"All you need to do is distract that Apprentice Angel, and I'll handle the rest," Mule said seriously.

"Let me see..." Campari hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement, adding, "As for whether Merus will leave, I can't guarantee that."

Mule gave Campari a deep look.

They even said that the God of Destruction next to the Apprentice Angel wasn't the murderer?

That would be absurd.

Given the level of humanity in Universe 7, there are very few people who could kill my son.

And the fact that they could do things so flawlessly is definitely related to that Apprentice Angel's Apprentice God of Destruction.

That Apprentice Angel must have also been covering up the cause of my son's death.

Oh, and there's also an Apprentice Supreme Kai next to that Apprentice Angel.

One is Apprentice Supreme Kai, and the other is Apprentice God of Destruction!

They are of the same race!

Maybe that Apprentice Supreme Kai was involved too.

You two just wait.

Do you still want to cover it up?

"By the way, do you really think the Super Dragon Balls you mentioned can grant any wish?" Mule asked excitedly.

"Yes," Campari nodded.

"So, if I get the Super Dragon Balls, I can revive my son, right?" Mule's eyes gleamed.

"Yes, that's possible," Campari replied, "But only if the new God of Destruction for the Universe 18 is chosen."

"Got it." Mule's eyes darted around.

"So... who should participate in the competition, Mule?" Campari asked.

"Let Magikayo go," Mule thought carefully and gave a suggestion.

Magikayo is a cyborg warrior with a full-metal blue shell, essentially making him a full -Metal Man.

This person is also very powerful, somewhat like the liquid metal T1000 from Terminator.

As for their true level, we'll have to put them out there for a test.

Universe 6, a certain planet.

Champa is feasting on this planet.

This planet doesn't seem to have anything special about it, and the food that Champa eats is rather coarse.

Yes, it's basically boiled meat, I guess without any salt...

Even so, Champa ate very happily.

Just then, Vados's voice suddenly rang out from inside the pocket of Champa's clothes.

While eating his greasy food, Champa took a communicator out of his pocket, placed it on the table, and pressed the button on it.

"Vados, what's wrong?" Champa hummed, then quickly added, "Have the two little monkeys at home left?"

"Is Lord Champa still holding a grudge about losing to them?" Vados chuckled.

"Hmph, I didn't go all out. If it weren't for his special status, do you think the two of them could defeat me?" Champa snorted, his face dark, and he crunched the meat in his mouth.

"Luo Tian and Broly know that you've been accommodating to them, and they appreciate it," Vados said on Luo Tian's behalf.

"Hmph, that's more like it. You're starting to look like an Apprentice Angel." Champa revealed a smug expression and asked, "What? You came to me because of this, right? Do they want to apologize to me? Let me make it clear, I won't forgive them easily."

"No, it's something else," Vados replied.

"What?" Champa took another big bite of meat.

"This matter concerns the selection of the Eighteenth God of Destruction, issued by the Grand Minister. Lord Champa is required to participate as a accomplice... um, to participate." Vados almost let slip.

"What? The election order for the God of Destruction?" Champa hurriedly swallowed the meat in his mouth, showing a look of astonishment and confusion, but he didn't catch the details.

There was a full five seconds of silence.

Champa suddenly came to his senses and asked in a strange tone, "How come I remember that Universe 18 disappeared? Was it erased by the Lord Zeno a long time ago? That terrible scene from back then... I still remember it vividly."

As he spoke, Champa couldn't help but shudder, and the meat in his mouth suddenly lost its flavor.

"Universe 18 was indeed erased by the Lord Zeno, but it has recently recovered on its own," Vados explained.

"It recovered on its own? Was the erasure not thorough enough?" Champa fell into deep thought.

"Oh dear, I don't know about that." Vados shook her head.

Champa fell silent. After thinking it over carefully, he realized that even if the erasure wasn't thorough enough, it had nothing to do with him.

Sadly, the God of Destruction and the Supreme Kai of that Gods of Destruction of the Universe also disappeared.

I remember now, the angel from that universe was rather stubborn, saying he wanted to live and die with the Universe 18.

Finally, it disappeared along with the universe.

Not only that, the angel also offered up her Angelic Power.

"What was the name of that angel from the Universe 18 again?" Champa suddenly asked in a low voice.

"Linglong," Vados replied.

"I remember now, Angel Linglong, she has personality..." Champa gave his evaluation.

"Lord Champa, you should think about who would be suitable to participate in the competition," Vados suggested. "It's also worth mentioning that if someone from a certain universe is chosen as the new God of Destruction of Universe 18, then the Grand Minister will give out seven Super Dragon Balls as a reward."

"Super Dragon Balls? What are those?" Champa was taken aback.

"It can grant any wish," Vados explained.

"What? There are such good things?" Champa was both surprised and delighted.

"Does Lord Champa have any wishes he wishes to fulfill?" Vados asked with a smile.

"Of course, I want a fantastic Gourmet Star!" Champa hummed, stating his wish directly.

This has been Champa's greatest wish for a very, very long time.

Champa also made efforts in this regard, casting a wide net in its Universe 6 to search for such a planet.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned; there wasn't a suitable planet in the Universe 6.

"Then let's work together, that's my wish too." Vados tapped her forehead and asked, "I wonder who Lord Champa plans to send to the competition?"

"Hit, what do you think?" Champa thought seriously for a moment and then said Hit's name.

"Okay, I think it's fine," Vados agreed.

Given Mr. Hit's current strength, he probably wouldn't be able to defeat Broly.

That little guy is growing up so fast.

After ending the call, Vados looked in the direction of Luo Tian and Broly.

Luo Tian and Broly are still training, working hard for the God of Destruction Selection Tournament in three days.

Luo Tian wasn't particularly interested in this God of Destruction Selection Tournament.

But when Luo Tian heard Vados say that the angel of the Universe 18 was a beautiful woman with yellow skin, he became quite curious.

An angel with yellow skin?

How come I didn't know there were angels with this skin color?

Let's go take a look.

Moreover, it's time to get out and about.

This is a good opportunity to test Broly's abilities.

Broly, on the other hand, had eyes full of expectation as he trained hard to become the Gods of Destruction of the Universe 18.

Time passed day by day.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Champa also returned from outside with someone.

This person has purple skin and is wearing a dark purple coat.

What's most surprising is that this person's head is very unique, with a small crack on the top of the head.

The moment Broly first saw the man's head, he scratched his head repeatedly, as if he had seen it somewhere before, and wore a pensive expression.

Luo Tian, however, was not surprised at all.

This is the first time I've ever seen someone with a head shaped like this.

When I used to read comics and watch anime, I thought it was similar to...

Now that he sees it in real life, Luo Tian thinks it looks even more like the real thing.

Okay, this imagery...

"Oh my, Lord Champa is back... Hello, Mr. Hit." Vados greeted him with a smile.

"Hmph, I wasn't late, was I?" Champa snorted.

"No, no." Vados shook her head. "It takes more than two hours to get to the Universe 18 from here. There are still two and a half hours before the election for the God of Destruction begins, so it's perfectly fine to set off in half an hour."

"What? Is Broly going to run for office too?" Champa turned to look at Broly and saw that he looked expectant. He immediately understood.

Broly ignored Champa and stared intently at Hit...

Hmm, looking at Hit's head.

I feel like I've seen it somewhere before.

Hit frowned.

Why are you staring at me like that?

"What? What kind of look is that? Do you want to challenge Hit?" Champa snorted.

Broly scratched his head, then immediately took a book from his pocket and handed it to Champa.

Champa: "???"

Champa paused for a moment, glanced at Broly, and then took the book and looked at the cover.

"The Sunflower Manual?" Champa was a little confused, but upon closer inspection, he noticed a line of smaller characters printed below the four large characters on the cover. "Of all martial arts, speed is the only way to break through."

What is this?

"It's yours," Broly said generously.

"What are you doing?" Champa, puzzled.

"Luo Tian gave it to you," Broly explained.

Champa immediately looked at Luo Tian.

"Uh, I found it a long time ago when I was traveling through the universe," Luo Tian explained with a smile, then lowered his voice and continued in Champa's ear, "Do you know why I'm so powerful?"

"Hmph, are you that strong? I just don't want to get serious with you." Champa snorted, rolled his eyes, and showed a look of disdain.

"Do you know how old I am? I've only been seriously cultivating for less than two years." Luo Tian smiled. "I'm only 5 years old this year. I started cultivating the Ultra Instinct when I was 4 years old, and it was Simplified Ultra Instinct that Whis gave me."

"What? You've only been cultivating for less than two years?" Champa was stunned.

"Broly too." Luo Tian pointed to Broly.

Broly nodded in agreement.

Champa felt heartbroken at that moment.

These two little monkeys have only been cultivating for less than two years... and they're already this powerful?

"You mean... you read this book... and that's why you have such a profound understanding of the Ultra Instinct?" Champa looked at the book in his hand, then at Luo Tian Broly.

"That's exactly what I mean." Luo Tian nodded.

Champa did not have any doubts.

After all, Luo Tian's growth rate was simply too fast.

Even if he is the Grand Minister's illegitimate son, it's impossible for him to grow up so fast, right?

Moreover, putting Luo Tian aside, this little guy named Broly is truly remarkable.

It might actually be closely related to this book.

Out of curiosity, Champa opened the Sunflower Manual and saw the first page.

"To master this divine skill, one must first castrate oneself!"

There are only these eight large characters on the first page.

Besides these eight large characters, there are also a few smaller characters printed on it. "Complete this step to unlock the second page."

Champa: "..."

Champa suddenly snapped out of his daze and looked at Luo Tian and Broly with some surprise. After a long silence, he asked, "You've already started training?"

Luo Tian let out a helpless sigh.

Broly nodded vigorously beside him.

"You two... I have to admire your courage!" Champa looked at Luo Tian Broly with some sympathy.

Do you know that thing will be very useful in the future?

They're just kids; they don't know how to cherish things.

"Of all martial arts, speed is the only thing that cannot be broken," Luo Tian explained. "If you push your speed to the limit, Ultra Instinct 'Freedom and Perfection' is useless in the face of absolute speed. Isn't what this book says correct?"

"No problem... um, no problem." Champa nodded.
