Seeing this, Old Kai hesitated for a moment before swallowing the Senzu Bean.

Old Kai's injuries immediately healed.

"Son Goten, where did you get this Senzu Bean? It's pretty amazing!"

"I got it from Master Korin!"

"Master Korin?"

"Yeah, he's a hermit who lives atop Karin Tower!"

"I see! Well then, Goten, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving?"

"Where are you going?"

"Of course, back to the Kaioshin Realm!"

"Oh!"

"Then thank your brother for me!"

"Thank my brother?"

"Yes. After all, he was the one who pulled out the Kaioshin Sword!"

"Then, Old Kai, could you help me repair this Kaioshin Sword?"

"No!"

Old Kai shook his head.

The Kaioshin Sword had kept him sealed away for so long. How could he possibly repair it?

"Why not?"

"No reason!"

After saying that, Old Kai immediately used Instant Transmission and left Earth.

Kaioshin Realm.

East Kaioshin was standing on a grassy field, observing the universe, when a figure suddenly appeared before him.

It was Old Kai.

East Kaioshin lowered his head and looked at Old Kai.

"Who are you, sir?"

"I'm probably about fifteen Supreme Kais before you!"

"F... fifteen?"

East Kaioshin was greatly shocked.

"That's right!"

"Then doesn't that make you my ancestor?"

"Mm!"

Old Kai nodded.

"Th-then, Ancestor, why did you suddenly appear?"

"It's a long story. Simply put, I was previously sealed inside the Kaioshin Sword!"

"The Kaioshin Sword? Isn't that sword with Gohan?"

"Yes! Son Goten was practicing with it today and broke it!"

"H-he broke the sword!"

"Yes! Otherwise, I'd still be sealed inside it!"

"I originally thought the one to draw the Kaioshin Sword would be a Supreme Kai of some generation, but I never expected it to be a human. The Supreme Kais truly get worse with every generation!"

"I-I'm sorry, Ancestor!"

East Kaioshin said shamefully.

Old Kai merely snorted and said nothing.

Earth, Mount Paozu.

After Old Kai left, Son Goten returned home and told Gohan that the Kaioshin Sword had broken in half.

"Old Kai?"

"Mm!"

Son Goten nodded.

"If the Kaioshin Sword broke, then it broke. We can have Dad ask Lord Kai to fix it later!"

"Lord Kai!"

"Mm!"

Gohan nodded.

Universe 6.

Champa and Vados were flying swiftly through space, searching for the Super Dragon Balls.

"Lord Champa, we've already found five Super Dragon Balls. Once we find two more, we'll have all of them!"

Champa nodded.

"Then we'll make a wish to Super Shenron and have an Earth in Universe 6 too!"

"Mm!"

Champa nodded.

"Vados, about how long until Beerus wakes up?"

"Five years!"

"Is that so? That guy really can sleep!"

"Lord Champa, you used to sleep much longer than Lord Beerus!"

"That was before. Now that there's food as delicious as Earth's cuisine, I won't sleep that long again!"

"By the way, Vados, what do you think of that Saiyan named Son Goten?"

"What do you mean?"

"He's only seven years old, yet he already possesses such incredible power!"

Vados thought for a moment.

"He has the potential to become a God of Destruction!"

"Just what I thought!"

"Then, Lord Champa, are you planning to have him take over your position?"

"No, I have no intention of giving up being a God of Destruction for now! I just think he's quite strong. He might even catch up to me in the future!"

Time flew by, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Everything had been peaceful over the past half month.

Mount Paozu, behind Son Goku's house.

Son Goten was training in the back mountain when a figure suddenly appeared before him.

It was Time Kaioshin Kaiin.

"Who are you?"

"I am the Time Kaioshin responsible for managing time and space!"

"Then what are you doing here?"

"I came to ask you about time travel. Generally speaking, only Demon Gods, Supreme Kais, and I can travel through time and space.

Even Time Patrol Son Goku and the others can only open a gate through time and space with my help! So who exactly are you?"

Son Goten smiled.

"Didn't I tell you before? My name is Son Goten!"

"Then how do you explain your time travel?"

"An old man gave me the Power of Time!"

"An old man?"

"Yes. He told me I couldn't reveal his identity!"

Upon hearing that, Kaiin rubbed her chin with her right hand.

"Then why don't you join our Time Patrol?"

"No!"

"Why?"

"Because I've always liked being on my own!"

"Then I'll head back!"

"You're leaving already?"

"What else? Should I stay for dinner?"

"That wouldn't be impossible!"

Kaiin couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention and directly chose to leave.

Time Nest.

Time Patrol Trunks was practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard when he suddenly spotted Kaiin.

"Supreme Kai!"

Kaiin nodded.

"Supreme Kai, how did your questioning go?"

"I didn't find out anything!"

"Then do you think he might be possessed?"

"I don't know, but I didn't sense any evil aura from him. Do you think he might be a reincarnated time traveler?"

"I don't know. Supreme Kai, did you invite him to join our Time Patrol?"

"I did, but he refused!"

Kaioshin Realm.

Old Kai was boredly using his clairvoyance to watch insects on Earth fight.

A figure suddenly appeared in the Kaioshin Realm.

It was Son Goten.

"Goten!"

East Kaioshin cried out in surprise.

"Long time no see, Supreme Kai!"

Hearing this, Old Kai immediately turned his gaze toward Son Goten.

"Long time no see, Goten. Why did you suddenly come here today?"

"I came to see Old Kai!"

"To see me?"

Son Goten nodded.

"Then what do you need from me?"

"Old Kai, didn't you say before that you could help people surpass their limits?"

"You want me to help you surpass your limits?"

"Mm!"

Son Goten nodded.

"No!"

"Why not?"

"You hit me before. Have you forgotten?"

"But didn't I give you a Senzu Bean afterward, Old Kai?"

"No. I've already repaid the favor I owed you, anyway!"

"Then I can only go find Lord Champa!"

"What do you want with Lord Champa?"

"The Kaioshin Sword has already been repaired. I think it's best if you go back inside it!"
