Tights, who was in the middle of eating instant noodles, was startled. What was going on?
Whis, on the other hand, accelerated his pace, finishing off a cup of instant noodles in seconds, not even leaving a single drop of broth behind.
The next second.
"Ahhhhh!!! Whis, you're sneaking around eating good food behind my back again, aren't you!!!!"
A purple figure flashed through the void. Beerus, wearing pajamas, flew directly from the God of Destruction Palace to the lakeside.
"Tights, eat quickly!!"
Louis felt his scalp tingle. Who could have imagined that these instant noodles would have such immense power, actually waking Beerus from his slumber?
He hurriedly gave Tights a shove; if she didn't eat them now, there wouldn't be any left later.
Tights was stunned. What was happening?
However, she still listened to Louis and quickly began eating the instant noodles in her hands.
"..."
Upon arriving, Beerus had long since discovered that the mouth-watering delicacy was the instant noodles in the trio's hands, and Whis had already finished his.
Only the boy and the woman were left holding bowls of noodles.
But the boy had pushed the woman, and the two of them had immediately started eating.
Beerus swallowed his saliva, smelling that alluring aroma.
He really wanted to eat the noodles, but he couldn't bring himself to eat something someone else had already touched.
"Kid, who are you? Do you have a death wish?"
With the good food gone, Beerus's chest heaved with rage. His entire body glowed with purple light, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
He didn't immediately recognize Louis as the boy he had brought back ten years ago.
That made sense!
Boys change a lot as they grow!
Beerus had been asleep for ten years, and Louis had grown from a child into a handsome youth; how could he possibly recognize him?
Louis ignored Beerus and continued eating his noodles. It had to be said, the instant noodles in the Dragon Ball World were much tastier than the ones from his previous life.
Tights felt the aura of destruction radiating from Beerus and was struggling to breathe.
This must be the God of Destruction that Louis had mentioned!!
So terrifying!
I'm going to die, save me!!
At this moment, Louis held his noodles and stepped in front of Tights.
The terrifying pressure vanished instantly, and Tights gasped for air.
She had finally survived.
Louis said calmly, "Lord Beerus, she is my person."
Whis finished his noodles, a smile playing on his lips as he watched the show from the sidelines.
Beerus clenched his fists. Without even glancing at Tights, he looked at Louis and said coldly, "A piece of trash Kai, daring to snatch food on my turf. Who gave you the guts!"
Snatching food?
This lazy bum still hadn't recognized him!
Two black lines slid down Louis's forehead. Besides, how was something in someone else's hands yours? You might as well just say everything in Universe 7 belongs to you!
Uh...
It seemed that statement wasn't actually wrong.
"Then let's have a fight!" Louis laughed, tossing his instant noodles into the lake, where they vanished in an instant.
"..."
Seeing the delicious food go to waste, Beerus was furious: "If you want to die, then I'll grant your wish!!"
BOOM--!
His entire body was enveloped in the aura of destruction, with strands of purple lightning dancing around him, triggering thunder and lightning in the sky with terrifying light waves.
Whoosh!
Beerus's figure also vanished. Tights trembled in fear; was this what they called a God of Destruction?
Whis waved his staff, shielding Tights to ensure that the aftermath of the battle between the two wouldn't accidentally kill her, which would be quite the joke.
In the sky.
Swish!
Swish!
Two figures were flying at high speed.
"Kid, did you not eat? Your speed is so slow!" Beerus appeared suddenly behind Louis, his voice cold.
"Did you not just see whether I ate or not?"
"You're courting death!"
Beerus was truly angry this time, holding nothing back! He condensed a basketball-sized sphere of Destruction energy and slammed it into Louis, instantly engulfing him.
Destruction energy destroys objects at their very essence; this attack from Beerus was terrifying, causing even the air to hiss and crackle upon contact.
"Pah, daring to snatch food from me! You're dead now, aren't you!"
Beerus turned around confidently, feeling better now that he had destroyed his opponent.
However!
"Lord Beerus, it is impolite not to return a gift; you should take a hit from me as well."
A laugh came from behind him.
"What?"
Beerus's pupils constricted violently. He spun around quickly, only to see a fist-sized sphere of Destruction energy hurtling toward him.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch!"
Beerus was struck by the Destruction energy, the tingling, numbing sensation leaving him in disbelief.
That kid had actually survived his attack, and furthermore, the opponent could use Destruction energy?
That's impossible!!!
Suddenly!
A small figure flashed through Beerus's mind, followed immediately by an ethereal aura appearing in the sky, reminiscent of the scent of nature itself.
Looking at Louis again, a silver radiance was suffusing his body.
Rudimentary Autonomous State!
This confirmed the suspicion in Beerus's heart, and he broke into a smile: "Good kid, I didn't expect you to have grown up so much!"
Aside from deities at the Angel level or above, the only person capable of ignoring a strike from the strongest God of Destruction in the Zeno universe was the successor he had taken in all those years ago!
"Hahaha, Lord Beerus has finally recognized me!"
Louis laughed: "But since you wanted to beat me up just now, I'm going to beat you back!"
As soon as his voice fell!
Louis flickered, his afterimages dancing across the sky.
Beerus adopted a defensive stance; after all, the opponent was no stranger, but that little guy who had been special to the extreme back then.
It would be a joke if he were to capsize in the gutter by being careless!
Soon, a barrage of Destruction energy spheres descended from the sky like falling flowers, and Beerus shattered one with a punch while mid-air.
Seeing that his Prince Tactics were ineffective, Louis switched up his attack style.
Countless phantoms appeared in the sky, each one roaring toward Beerus like a primordial beast.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Beerus was naturally not fooled by the phantoms and located Louis's true form.
The two engaged in close-quarters combat!
A silver light and a purple light soared into the sky, like two dragons emerging from the water, entangling and separating...
They fought from the sky to the ground!
Every collision generated terrifying shockwaves!!
An overwhelming aura permeated the entire God of Destruction Realm, and the God of Destruction Realm began to disintegrate.
Protected by Whis, Tights could not see the details of their battle, but she knew it must be an incredibly intense fight.
"Whis, Louis won't be hurt, will he?"
Tights clenched her small fists, her palms slick with nervous sweat.
Whis smiled: "He will be fine. Lord Beerus is very strong, but he cannot harm Louis."
Not to mention Beerus, even I cannot inflict harm upon Louis.
Of course, Whis did not say this aloud; he kept his eyes fixed on their battle.
Do not be fooled by the shocking visuals of the fight.
In reality, these scenes were not caused by Louis, but were entirely due to Beerus using his full strength.
Because Beerus knew that even if he used his full power, Louis would not die.
Louis was still too weak.
His power was like a tiny ant in front of Beerus, having absolutely no effect on him whatsoever.
Even after entering the Rudimentary Autonomous State, he was still being crushed by Beerus.
Suddenly, Whis widened his eyes and looked up at the sky.
Louis, hovering above, was undergoing some kind of change.
The aura around Louis turned golden, and a voice echoed from the sky.
"Lord Beerus, watch this next transformation!"
