Does He Have the Potential to Surpass Whis? Or...

Beerus had originally been immersed in a dreamlike world of gourmet food.

Suddenly!

Rumble—!

Whis's voice echoed through the space like the Big Bang!

"Who?!"

Beerus had just opened his eyes and still had no idea what had happened.

Right after that!

The Time Hourglass Bombs floating around them exploded!

Rumble—!

Rumble—!

"Ahhhhh!!!"

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Beerus's screams were mixed into the earth-shattering explosions.

Half an hour later, the explosions in this space finally began to subside.

Beerus lay on the ground, wearing an utterly lifeless expression.

There was no need to think about it. Whis had definitely been behind this!

"Whis, how long was I asleep this time?"

"One month."

"One month?"

Beerus suddenly opened his eyes wide. By his usual standards, even sleeping for hundreds or thousands of years counted as a short nap.

Yet this time, he had only slept for a month, and Whis had already woken him up?!

Beerus slowly climbed to his feet, his eyes filled with endless fury. Thick purple Destruction Aura also rose from his body.

"You'd better give me a reasonable explanation, or you'll regret it!"

"Oh ho ho~"

Whis was not afraid of Beerus at all. Smiling, he said, "You were the one who told me to remind you. You can't blame me for that, can you?"

"?"

Beerus froze, unable to understand what Whis meant.

"Lord Beerus, your memory seems a little poor. Have you forgotten what you said before you went to sleep?"

"What I said before I went to sleep?"

Beerus rested his chin on his hand and began to recall.

At the time, Gran was going outside the universe to train, so Beerus no longer needed to teach that little guy and finally had time for a proper sleep.

Later, Whis had taken Gran to Planet Yardrat to learn Instant Transmission. After Whis returned, Beerus had gone into hibernation as well.

Wait!

When Whis returned, Beerus had chatted with him for a while.

He had even told Whis that if Gran ran into serious trouble, Whis should remember to wake him.

Could it be?!!!

Rumble—!

The fury in Beerus's heart erupted like a volcano, and the Destruction Aura gathered around him finally burst forth!

The wave-like Destruction Aura spread in every direction, destroying everything in its path!

Bang!

The Sleeping Space dissolved into specks of starlight, and the entire God of Destruction Palace followed right after.

It was not over yet!

The pure power belonging to the Strongest God of Destruction seeped into space itself. This space crumbled inch by inch, and the entire God of Destruction Realm was on the verge of collapse!

"Who?!"

"Who dares touch my candidate?!"

Rumble—!!

Under the impact of Beerus's power, the God of Destruction Realm could no longer hold on and completely fell apart!

Whis floated in the pitch-black void, and Beerus's actions made the corners of his mouth twitch wildly.

Helplessly, he said, "Not that sentence. I never said Gran was in serious trouble!"

"Huh?"

Beerus's volcano-like fury was abruptly choked off.

He looked around at the pitch-black surroundings again. At some point, he had destroyed his own home.

"You... then why didn't you say so earlier?" Beerus's expression looked as awful as if he had eaten shit.

If it was not that sentence, then which one was it?

As Beerus pondered, Whis waved his Staff and restored the God of Destruction Realm that Beerus had destroyed.

Then—

"I remember now!"

Beerus suddenly became excited.

Back then, he had asked Whis whether the Saiyan Clan truly had some great origin.

Whis had replied that he seemed to remember a Saiyan who had challenged Lord King of All!

"Hiss!"

Beerus sucked in a sharp breath. He finally remembered everything, and his voice trembled as he said, "I... I said that if... if you remembered everything, you should tell me. Could it be that you..."

Whis covered his face. So he really had remembered. Clearing his throat, he said,

"I haven't remembered everything, but I made a trip to the King of All's Palace and asked my father in person."

"What?"

Beerus's mouth fell wide open. He had never expected Whis to seek out the Grand Minister about this matter.

That was the Grand Minister!

If Whis's strength was unknown to all, then the Grand Minister, father of all Angels, possessed even more unfathomable power!

Beerus's breathing quickened. "The Grand Minister has lived longer than you, Whis. He must know everything. What did he say?"

"..."

It was normal for Father to have lived longer than me, wasn't it? Was that really worth mentioning? Whis was completely speechless.

"I remembered correctly. There was once a Saiyan who challenged Lord King of All. That person was the ancestor of all Saiyans, and his name was Audis..."

Whis began recounting Audis's legendary story to Beerus.

Half an hour later, Beerus finally heard the whole story.

Rumble—!

A storm surged in his heart.

A Saiyan had actually defeated Universe 7's God of Destruction in an Ultimate Berserk State, then sought out the Grand Minister fifty years later?

And through a series of coincidences, that guy had even challenged Lord King of All?

Good heavens!

Beerus clutched his head. Had he really woken up? Otherwise, how could he have heard such a horrifying story?!

It was no wonder Beerus had lost his composure. After all, that was the strongest being in the King of All's Universe!

The ancestor of the Saiyan Clan had some serious nerve to challenge Lord King of All!

"Lord Beerus, my father also gave an evaluation of that little guy Gran," Whis suddenly spoke again.

"??"

Beerus instantly snapped out of his shock and hurriedly asked, "How did the Grand Minister evaluate him??"

"My father said Gran's origins are indeed somewhat mysterious, but there is nothing wrong with him. He told us to train him without worry."

Whis also breathed a sigh of relief as he said this.

Gran really was too mysterious!

When Whis had first encountered Gran, Gran had already been on the verge of death. Yet his Dimension had suddenly surged from the Mortal Realm to the Supreme Kai Realm Peak!

Was that something an ordinary person could accomplish?!

"That's good, that's good!"

Beerus patted his chest as well.

Whis had already told him about Gran's mysterious nature, but Gran was his Disciple. That little guy had such a good personality and such powerful talent.

Beerus truly did not want to lose a Disciple like him because of his origins!

"What else did the Grand Minister say?" Beerus sounded much more relaxed, though his expression became even more curious.

"My father also said..."

Whis suddenly paused, then said word by word, "He said Gran possesses Transcendent Potential!"

Transcendent Potential?

Rumble—!

Thunder exploded. Beerus was once again shocked to the core. He rushed up to Whis and tightly grabbed both of his shoulders.

"What does the Grand Minister mean? He said Gran has Transcendent Potential. Who can Gran surpass?"

Given Gran's current talent, surpassing Beerus, a God of Destruction, was certain.

As for surpassing Whis, that was harder to say. After all, Whis's talent ranked among the top two of the twelve Angels.

Of course, it was not impossible for Gran to surpass Whis. Did the Grand Minister mean Gran had the potential to surpass Whis?

"I don't know what my father meant either. After saying that, he went back into the King of All's Palace!"

After saying that, Whis fell silent as well.

Did his father mean surpassing Whis, surpassing Father himself, or perhaps surpassing...

Whis hurriedly shook his head. He did not dare think about the last possibility at all.

Neither of them spoke again. The Sleeping Space was terrifyingly quiet.

Half an hour passed.

"Right!"

Beerus shook his head, tossing away all the wild thoughts in his mind before asking again,

"Didn't that little guy Gran say he was going out to fight all kinds of strong opponents? How is he doing now?"

"..."

Whis's lips twitched. Shaking his head, he said, "I don't know either."

His eldest sister had dragged him away for a month of sparring practice. He had only just returned to Universe 7 himself. How could he know how Gran was doing now?

"How could you not know? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on him?" Beerus grew anxious.

That was the Disciple he had "worked so hard" to find. What if he died?

"I don't know means I don't know."

Whis rolled his eyes. How could he not guess what Beerus was thinking?

That kid had learned Instant Transmission. How could he possibly die?

"Alright!"

Whis waved the Staff in his hand, and a projection immediately appeared in the void. "Won't we know what Gran experienced this past month by watching now?"

The Aerial Projection showed exactly what Gran had experienced over the past month. The instant the image began playing—

"Who is that Bean Sprout wearing a Supreme Kai Outfit? Why is he following Gran?" Beerus's eyes widened.
