As Zamasu's words fell, the scene sank into silence.
Huff, huff...!
In the pin-drop silence, Gowasu's face had turned red. Even the arm he pointed at Zamasu trembled as he panted heavily. "Zamasu, you... you insolent fool!!"
How dare Zamasu?
Mr. Whis had just said that Lord Karochi possessed power on the level of a God of Destruction.
