Why had they never spoken up to warn the Gods of destruction and Supreme Kais?
Because mortals could not gaze directly upon Deities.
And the Gods of destruction and Supreme Kais had likewise not dared to look directly at an existence as exalted and noble as Baros, one who surpassed even Zeno.
Especially Quitela, the God of Destruction of Universe 4. He had actually wanted to use his racial talent to peer into Baros's true nature. That was simply courting death.
If Baros, who had descended upon Zeno's Palace in their time and space, had not merely been an incarnation of will—
Had Baros's true body descended in person, the instant Quitela dared to use his racial talent to spy on him, he would have been killed instantly by the backlash.

With Quitela, that rat of Universe 4, as a warning example—
The Gods of destruction of the other Universes immediately lowered their gazes, no longer daring to brazenly look toward Baros, who reclined upon a throne in Zeno's Palace.
"It's him!"
Beerus's expression changed at once. Others might not have remembered Baros very clearly.
But to him, Baros was the nightmare of his life.
Only a few short years had passed, yet to Beerus, it felt like yesterday. How could he possibly forget that Saiyan who had shattered all his pride and dignity with a single finger?
However, Beerus held no hostility toward an extraordinary existence as powerful as Baros.
He did not even dare to harbor hostility toward such an existence.
He understood far better than the other Gods of destruction just how terrifying Baros truly was.
Back then, Baros had already been able to battle the Grand Minister across the dimension of time.
