Traversing Time and Space, Encountering a Time Storm!

The two sides resumed their standoff.

Their eyes met, Bardock struck first, his body radiating an evil aura that transformed into a sharp slash that tore through space and hurtled towards Talot.

Faced with this dense wave of evil energy, Talot leaped into the air, his ghostly movements deftly avoiding Bardock's Evil Energy Cut.

'Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~!!' The unstoppable Evil Energy Cut through the arena, leaving several long cracks in the ground.

Bardock did not give up despite his attack missing. He raised his hand and gathered a roaring energy, locking onto Talot once again.

Bardock knew Talot's strength and was eager to prove himself, which is why he launched such a fierce attack.

The Evil Energy Ball condensed to its extreme, unleashing a world-destroying force that tore through space and hurtled straight toward Talot.

Seeing this, Talot gathered energy in his right hand, transforming it into an unstoppable energy blade, and slashed down fiercely.

The evil energy ball was easily cleaved in two by Talot's sword, falling to Talot left and right sides.

'BOOM!! BOOM!!' The Energy Blast exploded on both sides of Talot.

The thick smoke from the explosion enveloped Talot's body.

Bardock sensed an opportunity and charged forward in an instant, his powerful body, shrouded in evil energy, cutting through the smoke of battle.

The fierce attack swept over Talot's body like a storm.

Faced with Bardock's renewed onslaught, Talot remained calm and handled the situation with ease. Whenever Bardock's punches and kicks were about to hit him, he would perfectly dodge them with an extremely strange posture.

[So close, always just a hair's breadth away. Has this kid completely figured out my moves? No, it's not that simple. It must be because of the invisible God Power surrounding his body.] As a seasoned veteran with countless battles under his belt, Bardock's keen combat intuition sensed something was amiss.

Talot in front of him seemed to have entered some kind of special state, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Bardock's guess was correct. Talot in front of him was indeed no longer in a normal combat state, but looked more like he had the prototype of Ultra Instinct.

'Bang!! Thud!!' Talot stretched out his hands and grabbed Bardock's hands tightly. At this moment, the two engaged in a pure contest of strength.

In the clash of strength, the two sides were evenly matched, and neither could gain the upper hand.

"Good lad, you're far more powerful than I thought. I'm probably not even one percent as good as you now!" Bardock exclaimed, a yearning for greater power growing within him.

He was genuinely happy for Talot's strength, but he was also unwilling to accept his own weakness.

No matter what, he was an elder. Talot had surpassed him so easily, which must have stirred up quite a bit of emotion within him.

"Not at all, Uncle Bardock, don't underestimate yourself. The gap isn't that big yet," Talot said modestly.

"Hmph!! You brat, still the same as always. Since that's the case, let's settle this with one move!" Bardock snorted coldly, quickly unleashing his evil aura to distance himself from Talot.

He was already aware of the difference in strength between himself and Talot, and continuing the fight would be pointless.

"Since Uncle Bardock intends to end this battle, I have no objection!" After saying this, Talot immediately activated the God Power within his body, intending to unleash his ultimate move to decide the outcome of the battle with Bardock in one fell swoop.

"Let me see how you're going to counter this move." Bardock's right hand formed a palm, his five fingers exerting force, while his left hand gripped his right wrist, continuously channeling power into his right palm.

Talot raised his right hand to gather God Power, intending to end the battle with a super finishing move.

The energy of both sides continued to converge, becoming increasingly intense and heated.

"Take this!! Super Destruction Ray!" Bardock thrust his right hand forward, and a dark energy beam, roaring like a dark dragon, shot out from his palm, heading straight for Talot.

"Obliteration Bullet!" Talot swung his arm, and the God Power Energy Blast gathered in his right hand shot out through the air, carrying unparalleled destructive power.

'Boom!' The two sides' ultimate moves collided.

In an instant.

The entire arena, and the world outside, were greatly affected.

The invisible Time-Space Power surrounding the arena operated rapidly, absorbing all the immense energy released from the two players' ultimate moves, minimizing the powerful destructive shockwaves generated when their ultimate moves collided.

The aftershocks rippled and space trembled, as the destructive power of Talot and Bardock's ultimate attacks continued to increase.

At this moment, Bardock had unleashed his full Battle Power, even the absolute limit of his limits.

In contrast, Talot has yet to show his true abilities.

"Tch! In the end, the gap is still too big, this kid...!!" Bardock knew that his defeat was inevitable, so he simply accepted the outcome.

He was satisfied to have fought against Talot and truly felt the immense power Talot now possessed.

As Bardock's fighting spirit dissipated, his Super Destruction Ray also weakened.

Once Talot felt the pressure subside, he also stopped advancing the Obliteration Bullet.

'Buzz!!!!'

As both sides simultaneously released their force, the power of their ultimate skills was disintegrated by the surrounding invisible Time-Space Power, turning into countless light particles that dissipated into space.

"Phew! That felt so good, I haven't felt this way in a long time." Bardock let out a long sigh and immediately deactivated his transformation.

"Well, the time is about right. Let's return to our original timeline in a bit, Uncle Bardock," Talot said.

Bardock nodded in response.

They had already decided on a time to leave, but because he wanted to test his strength, he sparred with Talot before leaving.

Although some energy was consumed, this level of consumption can be recovered quickly.

Thus, their battle came to an end, and they also decided on their next steps.

Travel through time and space to return to your original world!

After finishing their sparring match, Talot and Bardock returned to the Time Nest.

After regaining all their power, Talot and Bardock found Chronoa, the Time Supreme Kai. After saying goodbye to everyone, with Chronoa's help, a spacetime tunnel connecting their time worlds was opened.

"Alright, the Time-Space Tunnel has stabilized. You can go in now. Remember to be careful of the Time Storm you encounter along the way." Chronoa clapped his hands and turned to Bardock and Talot, reminding them.

"Thank you for taking care of me these past few days. If you need anything in the future, just come to us," Talot promised Chronoa.

"I'll remember that. I'll come find you in the future," Chronoa said with a light laugh, hands on his hips.

"Then, farewell." With that, Talot and Bardock turned and entered the Time-Space Tunnel.

As the two of them entered, the Time-Space Tunnel closed at that moment.

"They've left after all. If only one of them had stayed in the Time Nest Time Patroller," Chronoa sighed with deep regret.

Bardock and Talot are both so strong; they're definitely promising candidates for Time Patroller.

However, neither of them had any interest in becoming Time Patroller.

Just as the two people left.

Immediately afterward, Chronoa received an emergency distress signal from Time Patroller in other timelines.

The projection formed by the Time-Space Power showed the crisis that Future Son Goku and his companions encountered in another time and space world.

In the world they inhabit, they were attacked by people from the Dark Demon Realm.

"It's the Dark Demon Realm again... This is getting troublesome. Vegeta, it's time for you to make your move." Chronoa turned to Future Vegeta beside him and instructed him.

Upon hearing this, Future Vegeta smiled without saying a word; he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

I'm sure Kakarot's expression will be priceless when he sees his new transformation.

This feeling was just like the first time he saw Kakarot transform into Super Saiyan 3.

He was determined to let Kakarot experience that feeling.

At this very moment, inside the Time-Space Tunnel.

Talot and Bardock are traveling through Time-Space Tunnel.

Talot used his Time-Space Power to create an invisible barrier that enveloped the two of them.

With this Time-Space Power, ordinary Time Storm cannot harm them.

The two traveled through time without incident, and it seemed they would soon be able to return to their original world. But then, a sudden change occurred.

An unprecedented Time Storm suddenly appeared behind the two of them and swept towards them at an extremely fast speed.

"Is this... the Time Storm?" Bardock sensed the threat of the Time Storm behind him and immediately unleashed his full power, transforming into Evil Super Saiyan 3.

The Time Storm arrived suddenly, and its speed was outrageously fast.

"This is troublesome!" Seeing the situation was not good, Talot frowned and immediately mobilized the God Power Energy Pool in his body, transforming from Super Saiyan God to Super Saiyan Blue Evolved Peak state in one go.

During his first time traveling through time, he actually encountered Time Storm.

At this moment, Talot grabbed Bardock with one hand and sprinted at full speed towards the end of the Time-Space Tunnel.

Even at the peak speed of Super Saiyan Blue Evolved, it was impossible to completely escape the massive Time Storm behind it.

The Time Storm seemed to have locked onto the two of them, treating them as prey, determined to devour them completely.

"Does this thing have self-awareness? Even at such a high speed, it can't be shaken off?!" The terror of the Time Storm made Bardock's scalp tingle.

Judging by bodily instincts, anyone who gets caught up in this thing will face unimaginable consequences.

Even someone as powerful as him would be badly injured, if not killed. And once inside the Time Storm, who knows where he'd end up? "Hmph! I refuse to believe I can't get rid of it!" Talot gritted his teeth, decisively activated the God of Destruction Power within him, and entered a state of Ultra Ego.

With the power of God of Destruction surging around him, Talot transformed into a streak of purple aurora, carrying Bardock straight towards the top of the Time-Space Tunnel.

But the massive Time Storm continued to relentlessly pursue them.

"Damn it! Does this thing really have self-awareness? Fine, since I can't escape, I'll destroy it!" Talot was furious.

I didn't want to waste time, and I didn't want to cause any more trouble.

Everything was going smoothly until they were suddenly pursued by Time Storm.

Since we can't shake them off, let's confront them head-on!

Talot gathered power in his other hand, condensing Destruction Energy in his palm. Once the energy was fully formed, he threw it backward with all his might, smashing the Destruction Energy Ball directly into the Time Storm behind him.

'Whoosh!' An unbelievable scene unfolded.

Talot's Destruction Energy Ball not only failed to destroy the Time Storm, but were instead shattered and absorbed by it.

Having absorbed the Time Storm from the Destruction Energy Ball, it became even larger, and its speed increased dramatically.

Upon seeing this, Talot gasped. Then, disregarding the disruption of the Time Storm, he unleashed his full power, bursting forth with his aura to accelerate and carry Bardock at full speed.

"What do we do now? Talot, if it really doesn't work, you go ahead alone!" Bardock frowned, his face looking grim.

He had already anticipated what was likely to happen, so he didn't want Talot to be in danger.

Although the hope of returning home was within reach and he shouldn't give up, he also didn't want Talot to be unable to return because of him.

"No! We've come this far, how can we let go! It seems this thing won't let us go without paying a price." Talot realized the seriousness of the situation.

At the same time, an idea also formed in his mind.

Rather than continuing like this, it would be better for him to stay.

At least he has mastered the Time-Space Power, so he should be able to break free even after being devoured by it.

Moreover, he also bears the mark of Whis, and he escaped unharmed when he was first caught in the Time Storm.

If Bardock returns, he can use the full power of spacetime on his own to resolve the Time Storm from the inside out, and then return to his original world.

"Uncle Bardock, I'm now using the Time-Space Power within me to send you back to Earth in your original world. Be prepared," Talot suddenly said.

"And what about you?!" Upon hearing this, Bardock felt a sense of foreboding.

He had a vague idea of what Talot wanted to do.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Besides, I have mastered the Time-Space Power, so even if I'm swept up in this Time Storm, I won't die! It'll just take a little longer to get back. Uncle Bardock can explain it to me then. Even if I really encounter danger, Selari and the others know what to do," Talot explained.

"This..." Bardock was somewhat perplexed.

For him, it was better to go himself than to let Talot take the risk, but Talot was no longer the child who needed his protection.

"I understand, you must come back safely!" After a moment of contemplation, Bardock quickly made a decision and said to Talot.

He didn't want to hold Talot back either.

P. S.: The story from five million years ago ends here. A new volume starts tomorrow, and the new story will be even more exciting, and it will use the original plot as a springboard. O(∩_∩)O
