Vegeta looked at Broly before him, a faintly mocking smile on his face. "In that state, how much strength can you possibly show? Hmph!"
"You're like a wild beast now, but I happen to love fighting beasts—especially ones like you, who only get stronger as the battle goes on."
Broly felt Vegeta's provocation. He glared at him viciously and began to roar, struggling to rise from the rubble.
Just then, Vegeta let out an angry shout. A powerful purple Hakai aura burst from his body, and he transformed in an instant into Ultra Ego Form. He stared haughtily at Broly, whose body was battered and disheveled.
Son Goku had returned to Ye Ming's side. He rubbed the back of his head and said sheepishly, "I've actually already lost this fight. Broly is just too powerful, and the way he fights like a wild beast is truly shocking!"
Ye Ming smiled. "Don't worry about it, Son Goku. Broly really is like that. He's still out of control, and no matter how you fight him, you can't beat a savage!"
"Someone who doesn't feel pain—or who only gets stronger as the battle goes on—and turns into a beast when enraged is undoubtedly even more terrifying in a fight. I'll take him back with me later, and you can spar with him whenever you like!"
Whis then healed Son Goku's injuries and gave him a fresh set of clothes. Broly had completely torn his old ones to shreds.
Once his strength had returned, Son Goku turned his attention back to the battlefield where Vegeta and Broly were fighting.
Broly was being savagely beaten by Vegeta, unable to fight back at all. Vegeta unleashed a series of attacks on his abdomen, making him spit out several mouthfuls of blood.
Vegeta kicked Broly into the ground, leaving a huge crater, then tilted his head and said, "Is that all you've got? Show me the strength you had when you fought like a wild beast, Broly."
Broly shakily got to his feet. He had already been badly injured fighting Son Goku, and his stamina was running low. Vegeta was taking advantage of an easy opportunity!
Paragus chimed in from the side. "Are you taking turns fighting him? That's not fair!"
Ye Ming shot him a cold look, making him shudder. Paragus immediately clamped his mouth shut and said nothing more.
Looking at Broly, who was down on one knee, Vegeta had lost what little interest he had left. He raised his hand slightly, and a terrifying purple energy wave gathered in his palm before suddenly surging toward Broly.
Broly gritted his teeth and hurriedly struggled to his feet to block the blast. Vegeta smiled faintly, then brought his fingers together, increasing the power once more!
The purple energy sphere grew several times larger. With a pained roar, Broly was swallowed by the purple energy and sent flying!
Boom!!!
A terrifying explosion erupted around Broly. The destructive force left him completely unable to fight, and he collapsed where he landed.
Whis smiled faintly. "It looks like the fight is finally over. Broly has lost consciousness."
Ye Ming nodded at Whis's words. Broly was indeed incredibly powerful. If he trained and learned to control this power perfectly, he could even surpass his current limits. He would definitely become stronger than Vegeta and Son Goku!
By then, Vegeta had brought Broly over and tossed him down in front of Ye Ming.
His father, Paragus, hurried over and knelt to examine Broly. Vegeta said calmly, "He's not dead. He's just badly injured and unconscious."
Ye Ming looked at Paragus and said coolly, "We won this match, so you have to keep your promise."
Paragus wanted to argue, but when he saw the cold look in Ye Ming's eyes, he realized that if he dared say no, he might disappear from this world that very instant!
Paragus hurriedly said, "If Broly leaves, what am I supposed to do? I can't survive on this planet by myself."
Ye Ming looked at Whis. "Whis, please take him to a planet inhabited by humans. Somewhere far from Earth, if possible."
"Still, I should warn you, Paragus: you'd better put your ambitions aside. In the eyes of many people, you're no more than an ant. They simply can't be bothered with you. You should know your place."
Whis nodded. "No problem. Leave it to me. Come along, Paragus. I'll find you a decent planet where you can spend the rest of your life."
Paragus lowered his head and said nothing. He had no other choice. The weak never had a say!
Soon, Whis took Paragus away from Vampa and found him a pleasant planet. Paragus was satisfied with Whis's choice, and after settling him there, Whis departed on his own.
A little while later, Whis returned and brought Ye Ming, the others, and Broly back to the God of Destruction Realm.
Beerus had just finished training in Destruction Space, while Son Gohan had also completed his training and was preparing lunch for everyone.
A dazzling light descended upon the God of Destruction Realm. Beerus knew they were back, and Son Gohan immediately went out to greet them.
When Son Goku saw his son Son Gohan, he said with a smile, "Gohan, you've finally finished training! Looks like you've made quite a bit of progress, haha!"
Son Gohan replied modestly, "I've only made a little progress. I'm still not as strong as you, Dad. I've prepared lunch for everyone, so come in and eat."
As Vegeta entered, he glanced at Son Gohan. Son Gohan noticed and asked, "Uncle Vegeta, is something wrong?"
Vegeta snorted. "You're not bad, kid! Hm, you caught up so quickly?"
Son Gohan rubbed the back of his head awkwardly and smiled. "I'm nowhere near as good as you, Uncle Vegeta. I still need to keep training!"
Ye Ming and the others feasted in the God of Destruction Palace. Beerus joined the party too; wherever there was good food, Beerus was sure to be there!
Ye Ming asked Son Gohan, "Gohan, how's your training going?"
Son Gohan replied seriously, "I've combined my Mystic Form with Super Saiyan Blue and added my anger to it as well. My strength has increased quite a bit, and I've named this form 'Deep Blue Triple Mode.'"
Vegeta took a bite of his chicken leg and glanced at Son Gohan. "Oh? Then I'll have to see it for myself. Once we're done eating, let me see how much stronger you've gotten!"
When Son Goku heard "Deep Blue Triple Mode," he looked excitedly at his son. "That's amazing, Gohan! I want to see your new form too!"
Ye Ming already knew what Son Gohan's "Deep Blue Triple Mode" was like, but he was also curious to see how much stronger Son Gohan had become lately.
After the meal, Son Gohan said modestly, "I also have Whis to thank for constantly pushing me and sharing his experience with me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have mastered it so quickly."
Whis was eating at the table too. Hearing Son Gohan praise him, he raised his head proudly. "You're too kind, Gohan. I only gave you a little guidance. This just proves how talented you are, haha!"
Beerus sat silently to the side. He was one of the top "training fanatics," after all.
Ever since Ye Ming had appeared, Beerus hadn't slacked off in his training. Under Whis's careful instruction, he had already gained an initial grasp of Mastered Ultra Instinct, though he still needed more practice!
Beerus had also become far more skilled in the Power of Destruction—more precise and more powerful than before! Compared with Ye Ming before he mastered the Perfect Super Saiyan 5 form, Beerus might have been a little stronger.
Beerus considered Ye Ming both a friend and a rival. He had also realized that Ye Ming's arrival had helped him get rid of many of his bad habits and made him stronger than ever.
What Beerus didn't know was that Ye Ming had mastered the Perfect Super Saiyan 5 form, and his power had undergone another transformation! If Beerus had known, he might have choked on his food.
Ye Ming said, "We've brought Broly back, so we've gained another powerful warrior with plenty of potential!"
"But that's not enough. If we add Piccolo and Majin Buu, that still only gives us seven people. We should bring them to the God of Destruction Palace to train when we get the chance."
"I have a feeling that besides the tournament between the twelve universes that Zeno will hold in the future, another major crisis will arise. We can't let our guard down."
Everyone nodded at Ye Ming's words. Only by thinking ahead could they be prepared.
Son Gohan hurriedly asked, "How many more warriors do we need?"
Ye Ming leaned back in his chair and said calmly, "There may be no limit. As long as the warriors we find have potential and can contribute to our universe, then they're the warriors we need."
Whis wiped his mouth. He agreed with Ye Ming and said seriously, "Ye Ming is right. Only by uniting the strongest warriors in this universe can we stand our ground when future crises arise."
Ye Ming then said, "I'm going to name a few warriors. Tell me what you think, but don't get worked up when I say their names. Stay calm."
Vegeta frowned. He had a bad feeling about this!
Ye Ming said, "Android 17 and Android 18, Cell, and Frieza."
The moment Vegeta heard Frieza's name, he lost his composure. "Are you kidding me? No way! Frieza absolutely cannot join our team."
Son Goku knew that Frieza and Vegeta were mortal enemies, and that only one of them could survive! He smiled and said, "Vegeta, calm down, calm down. Ye Ming is only making a suggestion."
