As the two Supreme Deities of Universe 7 descended, the chaotic aura on the planet grew even more frenzied.
Especially Beerus's faint Destruction Aura. Its spread caused drastic changes in the planet's Magnetic Field.
Crackle!
Countless bolts of lightning fell from the void, painting a scene straight out of the apocalypse.
Meanwhile, Gran and the other two stood amid the ruins, bright lightning illuminating every face.
Little Gran furrowed his brow.
When he heard Beerus mention a grass-green-haired state, Broly was the first person who came to mind.
Only a Legendary Super Saiyan like Broly could transform into such a state, but...
At this time, Broly, like Goku, should have only been exiled for three years. That meant Broly was even younger than him.
Could Broly have already entered the Legendary Super Saiyan State at such a young age? Otherwise, how would Beerus and Whis know about this state?
"How do we know? Whis, you explain it!"
"Lord Beerus, haven't you already learned Audis's legendary story? Why make me explain it?"
Seeing that Gran had not lost his mind and that his hair was not in the Grass-Green State, Whis's mood instantly improved considerably.
At least Gran's current condition was not as bad as they had imagined.
"You..."
Beerus's eyes widened.
He had felt rather guilty for raising his voice at Whis just now, but looking at him now, it seemed he had been too kind.
In the end, Beerus was the one who told Gran about Audis's legendary story.
After finishing, Beerus narrowed his eyes. "Kid, that History Book of your Saiyan Clan should have been passed down by Audis, right?"
"..."
A colossal storm surged within Gran's heart.
He had only mentioned that History Book casually. Who would have thought Whis would actually seek out the Grand Minister over it?
What surprised him even more was that the Saiyan Clan truly had such a profound history!
But...
On further thought, it made perfect sense. Broly's Legendary Super Saiyan State could be called a kind of ancestral reversion. Without an ancestor who possessed the Legendary Super Saiyan State, how could Broly undergo such a mutation and revert to it?
Audis, huh? How interesting!
"Yes."
Gran could only nod now. Looking at the two Supreme Deities before him, he remained calm. "The grass-green-haired state you mentioned is precisely the form my ancestor transformed into. Within our Saiyan Clan, it is known as the Legendary Super Saiyan."
"Legendary Super Saiyan?"
Beerus and Whis looked at each other. A transformation riddled with flaws was worthy of such a grand name?
"Then what is going on with your state?"
Beerus suddenly appeared beside Gran at an incomparably terrifying speed.
Gran could not react at all before one of his small shoulders was pinned down by a purple cat paw, while Beerus pushed his golden hair around.
"Although your Golden State does not make you lose your mind like that Grass-Green State, your aura, your power, your emotions..."
Beerus's voice grew colder and colder as an imposing aura erupted from him.
Whis continued, "Have you not realized it yet? This state may have increased your power fiftyfold, but just as Lord Beerus said, your aura, power, emotions, and everything else have become violent because of this Golden State!"
"Can you still enter the Ultra Instinct Prototype while in this Golden State?"
Whis also came before Little Gran and reached out to pat the head of the child with unparalleled talent.
At this moment, Whis no longer looked as elegant as usual. He seemed somewhat disappointed that Gran had failed to live up to expectations.
"I..."
Gran raised his head, about to explain.
"Whether it is your ancestor's Grass-Green State or your Golden State, these transformations of yours are all wrong."
"Transformations only place a greater burden on your bodies. Only strength in your normal state is true strength!"
Beerus pinched Gran's little face and sighed. "Your talent is terrifying, and you still have a long road ahead. Don't stray down the wrong path. Let's return to the God of Destruction Realm first."
Whis was about to take Gran back to the God of Destruction Realm with him.
"Wait!"
Only then did Gran realize that Beerus and Whis had come here to persuade him not to walk the path of the Super Saiyan.
Gran did not know whether to laugh or cry. "I'll explain once we get back, but don't rush to take me away. I still have something more important to do."
??
Something more important?
While Beerus and Whis were confused, Gran suddenly used Instant Transmission to take them away from the battlefield.
One kilometer away.
Little Vegeta had been blown here by the gale. He was in a miserable state now. His Battle Armor had been shattered, his spine broken, and his body covered in wounds.
"Nappa, do you think Vegeta might be dead?"
Gran's violent pressure was no longer rising. Raditz and Nappa had endured their fear and secretly returned here.
But as soon as they came back, they saw Vegeta's miserable state.
"It wouldn't be strange if he were dead. Facing power on Gran's level, it would be stranger if he survived."
Nappa turned Vegeta, who was lying face-down, over and said in surprise, "Huh? He's actually not dead yet!"
Vegeta looked dead, but he was indeed still barely hanging on.
However, judging by his current condition, even if he could survive, he would not live much longer.
"Who told him to abandon Gran back then? Even if we wanted to save him now, we wouldn't dare!"
Raditz crouched down. Seeing Vegeta's miserable state, he sighed.
"If you want to save him, don't drag me into it. I don't want to save this guy."
Nappa curled his lip. If his strength had not been decent, Vegeta would have abandoned him long ago during these past few years.
"Don't talk nonsense. Actually, I don't want to save Vegeta either."
"Then why did you just say you wanted to save him?"
"I was only saying it. That's not against the law, is it?" Little Raditz stood up and stopped caring whether Vegeta lived or died.
"..."
Nappa's mouth twitched. Then he said solemnly, "Gran's power is too terrifying now. Vegeta is nearly beaten to death by him, and we used to be on Vegeta's side. Gran might take his anger out on us. We should leave this planet first."
"Yeah. Good thing we hid the spaceship. Otherwise, it definitely would have been damaged by that burst of power just now."
Raditz patted the dust off his hands, sounding somewhat relieved.
As they spoke, the two decided to abandon Vegeta.
It was rather ironic. Vegeta was the Saiyan Prince; in the past, he had always been the one to abandon his companions. Yet now the situation had reversed, and he had been abandoned by his own companions.
But...
Among the Saiyan Clan in the early stages of the story, this was also the most common thing. Perhaps this was the tragedy of the Saiyan Clan.
Raditz and Nappa were preparing to abandon Vegeta and return to where they had buried their spaceship.
Suddenly!
Rumble—!
Accompanied by the roar of engines, a medium-sized spaceship entered the planet's atmosphere and slowly descended.
"Huh? Whose spaceship is that?" Raditz raised his little head. The ship looked somewhat familiar to him.
"Raditz, did you notice? This spaceship and Frieza Headquarters..."
Before Nappa could finish, he swiftly bent down and stared wide-eyed at Raditz. "It's the Ginyu Force's spaceship!!!"
The Ginyu Force was Frieza's personal elite unit. Every powerhouse within it possessed enough strength to destroy a planet with the flick of a finger.
And today, they had actually come here!!
"Nappa, why do you think they came here?"
Raditz raised his little head, somewhat nervous. "Could it be that they found out we betrayed Frieza? Is that why Frieza sent the Ginyu Force to hunt us down?"
"That's very possible."
Nappa glanced at the spaceship above, spat, and sneered. "If they had come earlier, they might have been able to kill us. But Gran is here now. They've come only to die!"
The moment he finished speaking,
With a swish, three figures suddenly appeared beside them.
It was Gran, Beerus, and Whis. The instant the three appeared, Raditz and Nappa were crushed to the ground by that terrifying divine pressure.
"Y-you're Gran?"
"Why has your hair turned golden?"
Before you continue
