Gran Was Too Smart

"Did you forget? This is Lord East Supreme Kai!"

"He's Shin the God of Destruction?"

"Mm!"

Whis said somewhat guiltily, "Ever since Grand Kai and the others died, Lord East Supreme Kai has been one of the only two Supreme Kais left in Universe 7!"

"..."

Beerus's expression immediately darkened. Majin Buu breaking into the Realm of the Gods was absolutely his greatest humiliation!!

"It's all your fault, Whis. If you hadn't snuck off to look for tasty food, would Fat Majin Buu and the other three Supreme Kais have died?" Beerus gritted his teeth.

The mention of it made him angry.

Universe 7 had Five Kais managing affairs throughout the universe. As long as even one Supreme Kai remained alive, Beerus would not die.

Of course, there was also the most important safeguard: an Old Kai whom he had sealed away.

That was why Beerus had dared to sleep without worry. Who would have thought that when he woke up, the sky would have fallen!

Of the Five Kais outside, only one was left in the end!!

"Lord Beerus, you still have the nerve to blame me?"

Whis had already felt a little guilty, but hearing Beerus say that made him unhappy. He sneered.

"If someone didn't always love sleeping in, would I have gone out looking for delicious food?"

"And!"

"Who was responsible for Universe 7's Human Mortal Level Index ranking second from last?"

Whis did not speak loudly, but every word stabbed straight into Beerus's heart.

Beerus immediately fell silent. It really was all his fault.

"Enough, enough!"

Beerus changed the subject. "Why do you keep bringing up old debts? Now that Universe 7 has a Candidate God of Destruction, he'll manage Universe 7 from now on. Our ranking will rise sooner or later!"

"Then neither of us gets to criticize the other from now on!"

"Fine, I won't!"

Beerus snorted coldly.

Seeing Beerus snort, Whis snorted as well.

They were clearly the Combat Ceiling of Universe 7, yet the sight of them arguing was incredibly childish.

The little spat soon passed, and the two shifted their gazes back to the projection.

Seeing Shin recreate the useless planets Beerus had painstakingly destroyed, Beerus's fists clenched.

Whis, meanwhile, burst into laughter. After all, Beerus had sealed away Old Kai, and with no one to teach Shin the God of Destruction, he naturally knew nothing.

The projection continued playing as Gran destroyed the planets Shin had recreated.

Though it was not "Destruction," the effect on the universe's balance was the same.

Beerus was very pleased. The Candidate God of Destruction he had taken in was highly qualified. In the future, he could leave the task of destroying planets to Gran and rest even easier.

"Lord Beerus, when will you release Lord Old Kai?"

"If I release him and he accidentally dies, then what?"

"But if you don't release Lord Old Kai, Lord East Supreme Kai won't understand anything."

"Isn't Gran teaching him?"

"..."

Whis's mouth twitched. How could this guy be so afraid of death?

He sighed. "But Gran is only a Candidate God of Destruction in the end. What could he possibly understand? If you want a universe's ranking to rise, a God of Destruction alone isn't enough!"

Beerus suddenly fell silent. Half a minute later, he squeezed out a sentence. "We'll talk about it later."

After saying that, he continued watching the projection of Gran's experiences over the past month.

In the scene, Gran arrived on Planet Namek. The first three wishes he made to Dragon God startled even Beerus.

He wanted an Immortal Body that even Lord King of All could not "erase"? To become the strongest expert in King of All's Universe? To gain true eternal youth and immortality?

Were those wishes something a normal person could even think of?

Forget that Small Lizard Dragon—even Super Dragon probably could not grant them!

Whis covered his mouth and snickered. He could naturally tell that Gran was teasing Dragon God.

But when Gran finally made his real wishes later on—

Whis said solemnly, "Lord Beerus, look. Gran really didn't know that his Dimension had reached Supreme Kai Realm Peak!"

"I figured it out long ago. This idiot actually asked that lizard why he could survive in space. It's killing me!"

Seeing Gran's utterly bewildered little expression, Beerus held his stomach and laughed loudly.

When Gran made his second wish, Beerus's expression immediately turned serious again.

Even Dragon God, who possessed Miracle Power, did not know the secret on Gran's body. Then that little guy...

Beerus shook his head again. When Whis had awakened him this time, he had told him Grand Minister's assessment of Gran.

Grand Minister had said they could raise him without worry!

Thinking of that, Beerus stopped worrying again!

The projection moved on to Gran making his third wish. Gran had Dragon God move the beans from three large vats to his side.

Beerus did not show much interest when he saw those ordinary-looking beans, but Whis's expression became solemn.

"Senzu Beans? They can make someone recover instantly?"

Whis frowned. The effects of these beans rivaled an Angel's Healing Magic!

As Whis pondered, Beerus's shocked cry suddenly rang out beside him.

"Didn't I tell you to fight strong opponents? Why are you looking for this kind of trash?!"

After Gran left Planet Namek, he began taking Shin and the other one around the universe to challenge all kinds of strong opponents in order to train his Body Instinct.

Watching the projection, Beerus had thought Gran would seek out experts stronger than himself.

Who would have thought that he would only find trash with a Battle Power of just over a hundred!

Could it be that the kid was afraid of dying, so he did not dare seek out strong opponents?

Wait!

Beerus suddenly realized that something was off about the person Gran had found.

But at that moment, Whis had already mocked him. "Lord Beerus, your eyesight hasn't been very good lately, has it? Didn't you notice that the person Gran found has an extremely high level of martial arts?"

Beerus looked over and curled his lip. "Can you stop being so annoying? I was only distracted for a moment, and you're mocking me over that?"

"Oh ho ho~~ Lord Beerus is really good at talking tough. You clearly misjudged him!"

"I can't be bothered with you!" Beerus snorted and turned his head away.

"Lord Beerus, there are many examples like this in the universe. Their strength may be very weak, but their understanding of martial arts can be absurdly profound."

Whis ignored Beerus and continued on his own.

"Gran's Body Instinct has reached the First Stage. That is already quite a good level among mortals, but aside from us, he has never fought anyone else. His understanding of martial arts can be said to be zero!"

"Look!"

Whis pointed at the projection again. "Gran has been suppressing his own power. The strength he uses is even weaker than his opponent's, yet through these repeated defeats, his understanding of martial arts and Combat Awareness are rapidly improving!"

As he spoke, Whis's eyes gradually brightened. "This little guy knows exactly what his weakness is, which is why he sought out a Martial Arts Grandmaster like this for sparring. Gran is simply too smart!"
