Dragon Ball, Saiyans Don't Just Want to Get Stronger!

"I'm asking you two... are you idiots? What exactly do you think Babidi is?"

He was truly at a loss for words.

"Even if that Majin Buu were standing right in front of me, if I put in a little effort, a single slap would have him begging not to die. Have you really never heard even a shred of rumor or history regarding a God of Destruction? Does the Supreme Kai Realm not have a single record of such things? Did your predecessor, or the one before that, leave absolutely nothing behind?"

Shin sneered upon hearing this, as if he had caught Vitelli in a trap:

"Hmph! You even know about Majin Buu! And you still say you aren't an accomplice of Babidi? Are you trying to deceive us with your silver tongue? Kibito! Attack!"

"Yes! Supreme Kai!"

Kibito moved at the command, instantly erupting with his full speed and turning into a streak of light as he charged at Vitelli!

At the same time, Shin raised his hand, seemingly preparing to cast some kind of Supreme Kai magic to provide support.

"Sigh... it's like playing the lute to a cow."

Vitelli shook his head, feeling incredibly frustrated by this behavior where they refused to communicate and went straight to violence.

He didn't even change his posture, merely speaking casually to Whis, who stood beside him:

"Whis, seal off this space. Don't let Mr. Kibito run away using Instant Transmission."

"Happy to help, Vitelli-san~"

Whis smiled and nodded, tapping his Scepter lightly. An invisible barrier of space instantly enveloped the surroundings, completely severing the connection between the inside and the outside.

After doing this, he leisurely cheered Vitelli on (while stirring the pot):

"Do your best, Vitelli-san~ If it's too much, choosing to avoid the brunt of their attack is perfectly understandable, you know~"

Vitelli felt his nose twitch in anger:

"Me? Vitelli? Needing to avoid the brunt of two small-fry like them?! Whis, you really only know how to be snide all day long!"

He was truly defeated by this Angel who loved watching the chaos unfold.

Just then, Kibito had already reached him, his fist brimming with power, aiming straight for Vitelli's face!

Behind him, the Supreme Kai Shin had also condensed a strange ball of energy in his hand.

Vitelli didn't even transform into a Super Saiyan; he simply raised his right hand casually.

Slap! Slap!

Two crisp, loud slapping sounds rang out almost simultaneously.

Kibito, who had charged in, was sent flying back at a speed even faster than he had arrived, spinning several times in the air before crashing to the ground in a pathetic heap, a clear palm print rapidly swelling on his face.

Supreme Kai Shin, who had been preparing to release his skill, felt a blur before his eyes and didn't even see the movement. He took a solid hit to his own cheek, staggering so hard he nearly fell, the energy in his hand dissipating instantly.

Both of them were stunned by this speed and power that completely exceeded their understanding. They sat slumped on the ground, clutching their faces, their eyes filled with shock and bewilderment.

Vitelli shook his hand as if he had just swatted away two flies.

He walked up to them, looking down from above, and finally couldn't help but start lecturing them while pointing at their noses:

"I'm talking to you! Did you not hear a single word I said earlier?! Huh?!"

"I tried to reason with you, telling you the Supreme Kai Realm should have records, and you just decided I was one of Babidi's subordinates?!"

"I told you that as a God of Destruction, taking down Majin Buu would be a one-slap job, just to prove my identity and strength! And you only remembered the words 'Majin Buu'?! Huh?!"

"Speak! Look in my eyes!"

Vitelli was truly infuriated. How could a dignified Supreme Kai have such worrying intelligence and insight? Why were they acting like brainless fools!

He looked at Shin and Kibito on the ground, who were clutching their faces in a mix of confusion and fear, and felt utterly exhausted.

Seeing that both Supreme Kais were bruised and beginning to doubt their existence, Whis finally felt he had seen enough of the show.

He coughed lightly, stepped forward elegantly to stand between Vitelli and the Supreme Kais, and began to smooth things over (?):

"Alright, alright, Vitelli-san, calm down, calm down~"

He wore an impeccable smile and spoke in a gentle tone, "The Supreme Kai has lost his family since he was young and grew up almost entirely alone—an orphan, you see~~ He never had the chance to learn or hear about the God of Destruction, so it is quite understandable~ Please, as a great being, forgive this god who lacks a bit of experience."

Vitelli looked at Whis with an expression of sheer awe upon hearing this.

"As expected of you, Whis!"

He thought to himself, frantically venting, "The moment you open your mouth, good grief, you're a master of snark!"

In any case, after Vitelli's "physical persuasion" and Whis's "linguistic art" mediation, Supreme Kai Shin and his attendant Kibito finally accepted, half-doubting and still shaken, while clutching their still-stinging cheeks, that there indeed existed a type of deity in the universe called a God of Destruction—one who was their equal in rank but seemingly incredibly capable in a fight.

However, looking at the way Supreme Kai Shin's eyes kept flickering, it was clear that deep down, he still didn't fully trust Vitelli; he was merely choosing to compromise for the time being, forced by the unfathomable strength of his opponent.

Seeing Shin like this, Vitelli knew that without bringing out something real, he wouldn't be able to gain his complete trust.

He sighed and simply played his trump card:

"Does your Supreme Kai Realm happen to keep a legendary Z Sword?"

Shin felt a sudden jolt of alarm, his expression shifting slightly, but he immediately forced himself to remain calm and feigned ignorance:

"Z Sword? I don't know what you are talking about."

He was incredibly anxious inside; that sword was the supreme treasure of the Supreme Kai Realm, rumored to contain boundless power, and he could never let an outsider know of its existence!

Vitelli chuckled, piercing through his facade directly:

"Don't play dumb. That Z Sword is stuck somewhere in your Supreme Kai Realm. There is also a long-standing legend that says whoever can pull out that sword will gain immense power, right?"

He watched as the faces of Shin and Kibito turned deathly pale, and continued with a hint of amusement:

"Actually, that legend isn't entirely wrong. The sword can indeed 'greatly increase one's power,' but the reason isn't the sword itself."

He paused, looking at the two who were staring at him with curiosity, and squinted as he spoke in a measured tone:

"It is because sealed inside that sword... is one of your ancestors, a Supreme Kai from many, many generations ago, who was sealed away for... well, for some reason."

"Wh-what? A Supreme Kai from countless generations ago?!"

"Sealed... our ancestor?!"

Shin and Kibito exclaimed almost simultaneously, their faces filled with disbelief.

This news was too shocking for them; it completely overturned their understanding of the Z Sword!

Vitelli was finally satisfied with their reaction and said to them with a cheerful smile:

"When I have time later, I will go to the Supreme Kai Realm and pull out that precious sword myself, and then you will naturally understand. Now, the reason I brought you here is that I truly have serious business to discuss with you."

Vitelli then detailed the problem he had encountered to the Supreme Kai Shin—

How to safely handle a massive blue giant star that was extremely unstable and could collapse into a black hole at any moment, triggering a massive catastrophe.

He emphasized that he currently could not destroy it instantly without affecting the surrounding star systems, and therefore required the power of the Supreme Kai to assist him.

But as for the specific assistance needed... he was, after all, a novice regarding professional coordination between gods, so he cast his gaze toward the most professional person present, Whis, signaling that it was his turn to explain.

Whis received Vitelli's look but did not provide a clear explanation, instead offering a gentle smile.

He elegantly raised a finger to point at the tops of their heads, and then at Nail, who was waiting to the side, beads of sweat already forming on his forehead as he held his breath.

He chuckled and said:

"Ara~ Vitelli-san, we can discuss the specifics of the collaboration later. But for now, shouldn't we finish the last wish? I feel... Porunga-san doesn't seem like he can hold on much longer, you know?"

Reminded by Whis, Vitelli suddenly snapped back to reality.

He looked up and saw that the massive Porunga hovering in the sky, while still maintaining its majestic form, seemed to have its giant green body trembling slightly.

The light in its red eyes also seemed less stable than before, and one could even detect a hint of struggle and anxiety on its face.

"Uh... sorry, sorry!"

Vitelli felt a bit embarrassed and gave a sheepish smile to Porunga and Nail, "I got caught up in talking and completely forgot about you two. I'm truly sorry for keeping you waiting."

Porunga in the sky and Nail on the ground let out a sigh of relief almost at the same time.

The two moved in perfect synchronization, pulling out handkerchiefs from somewhere to wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads.

Vitelli looked up at the struggling Porunga, rubbing his chin as he quickly pondered what to use this last wish for.

After considering it for a long time, his eyes suddenly darted as he thought of a brilliant idea, a cunning smile appearing on his face.

He cleared his throat and said loudly to Porunga:

"Listen well, Porunga! My third wish is: make my girlfriend Bulma's physical state and appearance return to her youthful prime at eighteen years old!"

"Uh...?"

Once this wish was made, the entire scene fell into a strange silence.

Everyone present, not even excluding Whis, had the same thought pop into their minds simultaneously:

"Are you... serious?"

Vitelli looked at the bewildered Supreme Kai Shin and Porunga, who looked as if he could finally clock out.

He only had one thought in his mind now, and that was to finish the job quickly, and then...

I must go home immediately!!!

On the vast plains of Namek, the strange phenomena brought about by Porunga had long since dissipated, and the sky had returned to its usual brightness under the three suns.

Supreme Kai Shin and his attendant Kibito stood to the side, the slap marks on their faces not yet fully faded, their expressions still lingering with shock and a trace of imperceptible awe.

Nail stood respectfully to the side, waiting for Vitelli's instructions.

Seeing that the initial communication with the Supreme Kai was finally complete, Vitelli did not intend to stay in this place any longer.

The restless blue giant star Lisphi was still waiting for him to deal with it, and besides...

He glanced at Whis, who seemed to have started daydreaming about dinner again, and sighed inwardly.

If he didn't hurry back, he might really not even get the leftovers.

Although Vados's appetite didn't look like much, if she were really allowed to let go and eat without restraint...

He turned to Nail, who had been waiting quietly, and said in a calm tone:

"Well then, we shall be leaving. Nail, please convey my regards to your Grand Elder."

Upon hearing this, Nail immediately bowed in response:

"Yes, Lord Vitelli. I will certainly deliver your message."

Vitelli nodded, turned, and walked toward Whis, preparing to call for the Supreme Kai and him to depart.

However, he had only taken two steps when Nail's voice, sounding somewhat hurried and nervous, came from behind:

"Please wait a moment, Lord Vitelli!"

Vitelli paused, turning his head in confusion to look at Nail, whose expression seemed to struggle for a moment before quickly turning resolute:

"What is it? Is there something else?"

Nail took a deep breath, stepped forward, and bowed deeply to Vitelli once more, his voice carrying the unique persistence of a martial artist:

"Could I ask the God of Destruction to spar with me? I want to know if, when facing a deity like you, I... I have even the slightest ability to fight back. I want to truly feel just how vast the gap is between me and a genuine powerhouse!"

Whis, who was just about to set off, immediately stopped and whipped out a bag of exquisite snacks from nowhere. (Vitelli: Isn't that the Oracle Fish's snack?)

With an intrigued expression on his face, he adopted a leisurely posture that clearly said "this is going to be good," showing no intention of missing this sudden spectacle.

Vitelli raised an eyebrow in surprise, looked at the Namekian warrior before him, and suddenly laughed:

"To dare challenge a god—it seems you are a truly pure martial artist, Nail."

He glanced sideways at Whis, who was munching on snacks with a "crunch, crunch" sound.

Whis shrugged, his smile unchanging, and said in a relaxed tone:

"We have a little time, but don't dawdle too long, Vitelli-san~~ It would be terrible if we missed dinner time."

Vitelli nodded in understanding, looked at Nail, who had already assumed a combat stance with his energy beginning to condense, and waved his hand casually:
