"Please guide me, Master! Here I come!" Cabba transformed, reaching the level of Super Saiyan 2.
Likewise, this was the result of Cabba's twenty days of training.
Cabba's powerful aura shot straight into the sky, spreading across all of Planet Sadala.
"What an incredible aura." Caulifla looked astonished.
She hadn't expected Cabba to have reached such a level.
He was no longer the weakling he'd once been.
Kale and Hit, standing nearby, looked calm and showed no reaction.
This little bit of progress from Cabba wasn't enough to threaten them!
Faced with Cabba's Super Saiyan 2 form, Mu Yang didn't move at all. He simply met Cabba's gaze calmly.
Cabba felt as though he'd been struck by lightning. His body trembled uncontrollably, and he lowered his head, powerless. "I lose..."
Strong!
Super Saiyan 4 was just too strong.
Mu Yang had only glanced at him, yet this power alone had left him unable even to think of resisting.
"You're already very strong, Cabba." Mu Yang walked over and patted him on the shoulder.
"Very strong, huh..." Cabba gave a bitter laugh.
He'd lost before Mu Yang had even made a move.
Could that really be called strength?
If he could be called strong, then what did that make his master—a monster?
Hit nodded to himself as he listened.
His master was right. Jaco really was strong.
After so many years as an assassin, Hit had seen countless powerful people.
But in his entire career, he'd encountered fewer than a handful as strong as Cabba.
"All right, Cabba. If you're up for it, the two of us can spar." Caulifla stepped forward and grinned at him.
"Caulifla, you don't have to cheer me up. I know there's still a huge gap between Master and me! I'll work harder and make the most of my time." Cabba pulled himself together again.
Seeing him recover his spirits, Caulifla and Kale smiled.
"It's about time. I should be leaving Planet Sadala." Mu Yang suddenly announced his plans.
"!!?"
Kale, Caulifla, and Cabba all turned to look at him.
Even the indifferent Hit looked his way.
They all waited for Mu Yang to explain.
Why leave now, of all times? Why announce it so suddenly?
"You all know that I'm not a Saiyan from this universe," Mu Yang told them honestly. "I came to this universe to challenge the God of Destruction, Champa. We agreed to fight again in a month. After that, I'll return to my own universe."
This was the first time Kale and the others had heard about their master's past.
When they heard the name of the God of Destruction, Champa—
Kale, Caulifla, and even Hit were shocked!
Living in Universe 6, who hadn't heard of the renowned God of Destruction, Champa?
And yet their master intended to challenge someone so powerful. What confidence and spirit he had!
Their admiration for their master only grew.
"So you're going to challenge the God of Destruction?" Hit asked. "Could you take me with you?"
"!!?" Kale, Caulifla, and Cabba turned to look at Hit again.
"I'd like to see just how powerful the God of Destruction is," Hit said calmly.
Caulifla's expression changed, and she suddenly looked eager to go.
In response to Hit's request, Mu Yang gently shook his head. "I'm afraid not. Mortals aren't allowed to enter the Destroyer God Realm freely."
"I see... What a shame..." Hit sighed, feeling a little disappointed.
Caulifla's face fell, and she looked crestfallen.
"Master, will we get another chance to see you?" Cabba stepped forward and asked.
"Don't worry. We definitely will." Mu Yang looked at them with absolute certainty.
"And it won't be too long..." Mu Yang smiled, then took the Travel Cube out of his Storage Ring and stepped aboard, ready to leave.
"Wait, Master!" Seeing Mu Yang about to go, Cabba hurriedly called out to stop him.
Mu Yang turned to him with a puzzled look.
What was Cabba going to do?
"I can never repay you for everything you've done for me, Master. Please accept this bow!" Cabba knelt before Mu Yang and bowed his head once.
Mu Yang couldn't help but smile.
"Here, Big Brother Mu Yang."
Another voice suddenly called out from beside him.
Mu Yang turned to look.
Something suddenly flew toward him. Before he had time to see what it was, he instinctively caught it.
Taking a closer look, he found a bracelet made of flowers.
Mu Yang looked up at Caulifla.
"This is a little something from Kale and me. I hope you don't mind." Caulifla averted her eyes, looking uncomfortable.
"All right, I'll take it." Mu Yang slipped the bracelet onto his right wrist and smiled.
"If you ever need my help, you can contact me through this card." Hit produced a business card from who knew where and handed it to Mu Yang.
Mu Yang took the card, which had Hit's contact information on it.
"Don't worry, everyone. I'll never forget you." Mu Yang waved goodbye with a smile, then activated the Travel Cube. It turned into a streak of light and flew out into the starry universe, gradually disappearing from everyone's sight.
Universe 6, Destroyer God Realm.
In the garden.
"Boo-hoo... That was so touching!" Vados held a handkerchief, wiping away her tears as she watched the projection inside the Scepter.
It had been well worth watching the broadcast.
What shocked Vados most was that transformation into Super Saiyan 4.
Mu Yang was already close to reaching Lord Champa's full power.
If he could go a step further—
He might actually have a chance of defeating Lord Champa.
"Ah, what a shame." Vados sighed.
Even after transforming into Super Saiyan 4, Mu Yang was still worlds apart from Lord Champa in terms of strength.
Only if he could advance to an entirely different level—
Would he have any hope of crossing that insurmountable gap. Otherwise, it would all be in vain.
And it had taken Mu Yang a full twenty days to reach Super Saiyan 4.
There were only ten days left before his agreed-upon match with Lord Champa.
It was simply impossible for him to advance to a whole new level of strength in those ten days.
That was why Vados called it a shame.
He was clearly so close to surpassing Lord Champa.
"Vados! Vados!" Champa's voice rang out in the garden.
