As Beerus entered his slumber, the mocking voices from other universes regarding Universe 7 gradually faded into silence.

However...

Angels from other universes contacted Whis one after another, asking about the cause of that divine aura.

Whis said he did not know.

In truth, Whis really did not know the reason for the appearance of that divine aura.

Having received no answer, the angels of the other universes could do nothing.

Just as Whis thought the matter had passed, a projection of the Grand Priest appeared in the God of Destruction Realm of Universe 7!

The Grand Priest also asked about the origin of that divine aura.

Facing his father, Whis still said he did not know, but he revealed everything about Louis, including his "immune" constitution!

No sooner had Whis finished speaking than he realized something was wrong; the projected Grand Priest raised his hand and shouted at Louis, who was currently training: Erasure!!!

Louis was struck by a beam of white light, yet nothing happened to him.

Whis had long known that Louis could ignore all negative influences in the world, but he was still startled by this scene.

Louis's constitution could truly achieve this!

Finally.

The Grand Priest left behind a remark filled with deep meaning: "Train him well!"

Having said this, the Grand Priest's projection vanished.

Whis was shocked, but he followed the Grand Priest's command, and in the time that followed, Whis began to train Louis.

To become a true candidate for God of Destruction, one must put effort into three aspects.

Power, dimension, and rules.

The rules mentioned here, naturally, refer to the rules of destruction.

Louis had been training in these three areas all along.

Time passed, and ten years went by.

In the God of Destruction Realm.

A silver radiance flickered in the sky.

Bang!

Bang!

The phantom and Whis collided, the resulting shockwave sweeping across a hundred miles; wherever it passed, the ground cracked, the divine trees snapped, and everything was left in ruins.

After the collision.

"Hah... hah..."

A slender young boy hovered in mid-air, gasping for breath.

He had black hair, black eyes, and refined, sunny, and handsome features...

A brown tail was wrapped around his waist; his build was similar to Future Trunks from the anime, appearing slender, but the muscles beneath his clothes were highly developed.

"Whis, take this!"

The boy was none other than Louis; he raised his hand, a purple bead the size of a grain of rice condensing in his palm.

Hum!

The sky instantly boiled, as if a red-hot iron block had been dropped into ice water.

"Good lad, when did you comprehend Destruction Energy?"

"Just a short while ago, watch out, Whis!"

Louis laughed loudly and threw it with all his might.

The grain-sized Destruction Energy tore through the sky, causing even the stable space of the God of Destruction Realm to tremble.

"Well done."

Whis smiled slightly and waved his staff, causing the incoming purple bead to instantly disintegrate.

Then, Whis's figure vanished.

Relying on the instinctual reaction of his nascent Autonomous Ultra Instinct, Louis suddenly looked up, only to see a staff swinging toward him.

Louis raised his hands to block.

But the power Whis used belonged to the Angel level; the vast force shattered the entire firmament, transparent fragments of the void falling from it, only to melt back into the void to mend the torn sky.

The God of Destruction Realm exploded at this moment, with only the palace where Beerus slept remaining protected.

Boom--!

Struck by the Angel-level power, Louis instantly turned into a cannonball, flying fiercely toward the deep reaches of the universe.

He did not know how many planets he had shattered, but the next second, Louis was teleported back by Whis.

The God of Destruction Realm, which had been devastated by Whis, was restored to its original state by his "Temporal Do-Over."

Louis hovered in the sky, looking down at Whis on the ground, and smiled bitterly: "Whis, you're too strong. I can't beat you at all!"

On the ground, Whis had black lines running down his face as he replied: "Louis, I can't beat you either!"

Even the Grand Priest's "Erasure" couldn't kill this kid; he was truly at his wit's end.

It was simply absurd.

However...

Sparring with Louis was actually quite comfortable for Whis.

Because he didn't have to hold back like he did when sparring with Beerus, he could use his full strength without worry—after all, Louis wouldn't die.

"Um... well, I don't really know what's going on either."

"Alright, stop acting coy after getting the advantage. Come down, I have something to discuss with you."

"What is it?"

Louis flew down from the sky and landed in front of Whis.

"Since you have become a Candidate God of Destruction, you now have a responsibility to handle the work of destroying planets in the universe."

"But I only just grasped the energy of Destruction recently. You're making me work so soon?"

Louis was dumbfounded.

Hiring a minor to work—that's against the law!

"You are already a Candidate God of Destruction."

Whis shook his head and smiled: "Regarding your training, I have always told you not to forget to cultivate your dimensional realm while balancing your physical power."

"You have done very well in this regard. In terms of dimensions, you have already reached the level of a Supreme Kai, and in terms of power, measured by the standard combat power of Universe 7, you have reached 1 billion."

"Although your power is still far from the level of a deity, you have grasped the state of Autonomous Ultra Instinct, and you possess the energy of Destruction. There is almost no one in Universe 7 who can defeat you now."

"You know the current situation of Universe 7; the average level of mortals in Universe 7 is the lowest among the 12 universes."

"As a Candidate God of Destruction, you have a responsibility to change all of this."

"Besides, who told you to get stuck with Lord Beerus, that lazybones? If you don't handle this, who will?"

Whis covered his mouth and chuckled.

Beerus was the strongest God of Destruction, but he was just so lazy!

"..."

Louis's mouth twitched slightly, and he said: "I was young and ignorant back then. Can I go back on my decision to be a Candidate God of Destruction now?"

Whis raised his lips, teasing: "What do you think?"

Louis covered his eyes and smiled bitterly: "Guess I'm just unlucky!"

Without Whis needing to say it, Louis naturally knew the current state of Universe 7.

In the early stages, the strongest boss in Universe 7 was still Frieza; the fact that a combat power of 120 million could be called the strongest really showed how pathetic Universe 7 was.

It was lucky enough that Universe 7 hadn't been destroyed by Zeno yet.

[Ding, please sign in at the Supreme Kai Realm. Reward: Super Saiyan 1.]

The system, which had been silent for 10 years, finally showed signs of life. Upon hearing this, Louis was instantly overjoyed.

He knew the method to transform into a Super Saiyan: using extreme rage to draw out the power hidden deep within his body.

He had tried to transform before, but he always fell just short; it was very strange.

However, now that the system had issued a mission with Super Saiyan 1 as the reward, Louis was incredibly excited.

According to the universal combat power measurement, Louis's power was 1 billion—and that was just his base state. If he were to transform into a Super Saiyan 1, his power would increase by 50 times.

In other words, Louis's combat power would break through to 50 billion!

Seeing Louis's silly grin, Whis asked in confusion: "Louis, what are you laughing at?"

"Nothing. Let's go, we'll set off to carry out the mission immediately, but first, we need to make a trip to the Supreme Kai Realm."

"Why go to the Supreme Kai Realm?"

"Why do you ask so many questions? Lord Beerus isn't here, so I am the God of Destruction. Listen to me."

"..."

A seven-colored stream of light instantly enveloped the two of them and shot into the sky.

The starry sky of the universe was magnificent and psychedelic; from north to south, dots of starlight were scattered throughout, forming a breathtakingly beautiful galaxy.

In a sanctuary within the galaxy, a milky-white aura permeated the air. Upon closer inspection, it was radiating from a massive planet.

The giant planet appeared grass-green and emitted rays of holy light; it was extremely sacred, as if it were a star system where deities resided.

The Supreme Kai Realm.

"What is happening?"

Supreme Kai Shin sat by the lake, clutching his chest as his mind suddenly grew restless.

His attendant, Kibito, hurriedly asked, "Lord Supreme Kai, what is wrong?"

"I don't know. I suddenly have an ominous premonition. This feeling... could it be that Majin Buu has broken his seal?"

Supreme Kai Shin's expression shifted, and he stood up quickly, preparing to head to the site of Majin Buu's seal to investigate.

Upon hearing this, Kibito's face turned deathly pale. If the legendary Majin Buu had truly broken his seal, the universe would be finished.

Just then.

A thick, seven-colored stream of light descended from the sky.

[Ding, check-in at Supreme Kai Realm successful. Reward: Super Saiyan 1.]

A warm current suddenly surged through Louis's body, as if mending the flaws within him. His body felt numb and incredibly comfortable.

A faint smile tugged at the corner of Louis's mouth!

So that was it!

It wasn't that his talent was lacking, which was why he hadn't been able to transform into a Super Saiyan through his own efforts before!

It was because the S-cells in his body hadn't been sufficiently activated, preventing a successful transformation.

Now, the system's reward had compensated for his S-cell deficiency, and he had finally mastered the Super Saiyan state.

In high spirits, Louis looked around. "Whis, the environment here is better than the God of Destruction Realm. How about we swap living quarters with the Supreme Kai?"

"Louis, if Lord Beerus were to hear you say that, he would be furious."

"Let him be angry. It's not like he can kill me anyway!"

"..."

Whis was speechless.

This kid was so infuriating. Should he take advantage of his youth and lock him up for a couple of days to starve him?

Whis shook his head. He looked at the Supreme Kai Realm and counted on his fingers; he hadn't been here in at least ten million years!

He wondered how the Old Supreme Kai was doing these days...

At this moment.

"Who are you, daring to trespass into the sacred Supreme Kai Realm?"

By the lake, Kibito had been startled by the sudden seven-colored light, only to discover two strange men.

Their auras were quite ordinary; one was a mortal, while the other's dimension seemed to have reached the level of a King Kai.

When Supreme Kai Shin saw the two appear, the restlessness in his heart suddenly vanished.

Hm?

Was it caused by these two? But who exactly were they?

"Supreme Kai Shin, Kibito..."

Louis smiled faintly as he looked at the two by the lake, recognizing their identities.

Supreme Kai Shin and Kibito stepped forward.

Before Supreme Kai Shin could speak, Kibito's eyes turned icy cold. "Which King Kai are you? Do you not know that trespassing in the Supreme Kai Realm is a grave sin?"

"I am a King Kai?"

Louis was stunned for a moment, then remembered that his own dimension was indeed at the King Kai level.

It was only natural for the other party to think so.

However...

Kibito's tone was truly annoying.

Whis couldn't help but frown. Could this person speaking be the current Supreme Kai?

That didn't seem right!

Why did the current Supreme Kai lack the laws of creation? Instead, it was the little one beside him who possessed a dense trace of the laws of creation.

Louis said coldly, "Do you know who I am?"

Kibito was truly as arrogant as he was in the anime; one would think he was the Supreme Kai himself.
