Half a Year, One Billion Battle Power, Terrifying Talent

Inside the Sumeru World.

Crossing a vast desert would lead to a primeval forest.

Within that primeval forest stood a twenty-meter-tall Saber-toothed Beast, locked in a fierce struggle with a child wearing bulky clothing.

Its jaws tore and bit, its tail swept sideways, and its paws struck... The Saber-toothed Beast's attacks carried violent gusts, each one seeming capable of tearing apart heaven and earth!

The child's attacks gave no quarter either!

Afterimages overlapped as he fought at close quarters, his tiny fists colliding with tiger paws in a clash of pure strength against strength!!

It was hard to imagine that a child so vastly smaller could actually hold his own in such close combat!

"Get down!!"

Little Gran used the force of a tiger paw to launch himself into the air. He brought his hands together at his waist, firing a Kamehameha.

However!

The Saber-toothed Beast took several steps back and dodged it!

"Roar!!!"

The Saber-toothed Beast threw back its head and let out a roar, shooting an enormous energy blast from its mouth as well.

Boom—!

The leaking violent power swept through the entire forest, instantly destroying the trees within it.

Facing the incoming giant energy blast, Little Gran, clad in bulky clothing, did not panic. A streak of silver radiance suddenly emerged from his body.

Whoosh!

Afterimage Technique!

Gran's little face was terrifyingly calm. The gravity of the Sumeru World and the Gravity Clothing seemed to have no effect on him as he darted downward, skimming past the incoming energy blast!

He was incredibly fast. Before the Saber-toothed Beast could even react, Gran had appeared behind its backside.

"Thousand Years of Death!"

Gran's lips curled into a sinister arc as he hurled an energy blast at the Saber-toothed Beast's ass.

Boom—!

It struck the Saber-toothed Beast's ass dead on!

"Roar!!!"

The Saber-toothed Beast let out a heart-rending howl. If it could speak, it would definitely have said, Are you fucking evil? This hurts like fucking hell!!!

"Roar!!!"

The Saber-toothed Beast's eyes turned incomparably crimson. It went berserk, and both its strength and speed doubled.

At the same time, two figures suddenly appeared above the primeval forest.

"That little brat is getting more and more reckless. He actually dared to come in here wearing that set of Gravity Clothing. Once I catch him, I'll make his ass bloom!"

Beerus cursed under his breath, but the instant he entered this world, he saw the Saber-toothed Beast go berserk.

Both of them froze.

"What's with this Saber-toothed Beast's strength?" Beerus gulped.

Whis's expression was equally grave. "If we use the Battle Power index of the universe to measure this Saber-toothed Beast, its current strength has reached one billion Battle Power. What is going on..."

One billion Battle Power was nothing to Beerus and Whis. They could blow such trash to death with a single breath.

But...

The one facing this Saber-toothed Beast was Gran. How long had Gran even trained? How could he possibly deal with it...

Wait!

Beerus remembered the wondrous nature of the Sumeru World and blurted out, "The Sumeru World adjusts the level of danger according to the strength of whoever enters. That means..."

Suppressing his excitement, Whis continued, "That means Gran's current strength is already enough to deal with a giant beast with one billion Battle Power!"

How was that possible?

They stared at each other, seeing shock in one another's eyes.

Suddenly!

An aura just as terrifying as the Saber-toothed Beast's rose from below!

Beerus and Whis quickly shifted their gazes downward and saw Gran taking off his Gravity Clothing.

Boom—!!

10 Battle Power suddenly erupted from Gran's body!!!

Little Gran had taken off his Gravity Clothing, and at this moment, he had also exited the Ultra Instinct Prototype state.

Yet his speed remained as fast as lightning!

Even though the Saber-toothed Beast's strength was on the same level as his, it had no power to fight back under his assault.

Three seconds later!

The Saber-toothed Beast's limbs and spine had all been broken. Finally, Gran stuffed an energy blast into the Saber-toothed Beast's mouth.

Boom—!

Amid the terrifying explosion, the Saber-toothed Beast was blasted into pieces.

Little Gran stood where he was as dense bloodlust filled the air. Against that bloody backdrop, the little fellow looked like a god of slaughter!

"Gulp!"

Beerus swallowed again in the sky. He could no longer find words to describe the little fellow.

Whis appeared calm, but his grip on his Staff grew tighter and tighter. It was clear that his heart was in turmoil as well.

It was no wonder they were so shocked!

Gran had only been in the God of Destruction Realm for two years, and until a year and a half ago, he had never undergone any training in power.

Even now, Gran had only trained his power for half a year in total!!

In half a year, he had raised his own strength to one billion Battle Power?!!

That was one billion Battle Power in his normal state!!

"Wh-Whis, how long did it take me to train my strength to this level back then?" Beerus's voice was somewhat hoarse.

"Lord Beerus, if we count the time you spent sleeping in, I believe it took you ten years!"

Whis took a deep breath.

Among all Gods of Destruction, Beerus's talent was unquestionably the strongest.

Yet even someone as talented as Beerus could only pale in comparison before Gran!

Some might ask, if Beerus's talent was that great, why had it taken him as long as ten years to train to one billion Battle Power?

Goku had clearly only trained for twenty or thirty years, yet his strength could suddenly break through to tens or even hundreds of billions of Battle Power!

That was because Goku was the protagonist, and he could transform too!!

In his normal state, Goku and the others also only had a little over one billion Battle Power.

For example, Gran's current normal-state Battle Power was one billion. Once he transformed into the Super Three state, it would soar to four hundred billion Battle Power!

Suddenly!

Boom—!

The ruins of the primeval forest below began to tremble violently. Even the air became viscous, caused by too much leaking energy!

"This is bad! Countless giant beasts with equal strength are charging toward Gran!"

Beerus finally snapped out of his shocked daze.

That was simply how this world worked. Once you revealed your strength, countless giant beasts would hunt you down, unless you could completely control your power and prevent even a trace from leaking out.

"Whis, take Gran away, quickly!"

"Yes!"

Whis waved his Staff.

On the ground, Gran stretched his limbs. He had just been about to have a good fight with the newly arriving herd of giant beasts when suddenly...

The scene before him abruptly changed, and he returned to the familiar lakeside.

??

Two huge question marks seemed to flash in Gran's round eyes. Why am I back outside?

Wait!

The only person who could pull him out of that Sumeru World was Whis.

That meant Lord Beerus and the others had returned?

"Gasp!"

Gran sucked in a sharp breath.

He was done for!

He had secretly entered that Sumeru World because he wanted to increase his strength quickly, and now he had been discovered!

Gran stuck out his little butt and tried to run away.

"Where do you think you're going?!"
