The Female Supreme Kai

Piccolo, who had once seen Vegeta use this move against Majin Buu, was shocked. He had no idea why Vegeta would use it.

Knowing that Vegeta had used this move against Majin Buu before, and had ended up dying afterward...

"What!"

Everyone was shocked by what Piccolo said.

"Dad, stop!"

Even Trunks was panicking now. He had been there the last time they fought Majin Buu.

Vegeta ignored everyone else and simply stared at Lei Chen without changing expression.

"Lei Chen, if you let your guard down, you could die."

As soon as he finished speaking, a thick, towering torrent of golden energy erupted from Vegeta.

In an instant, a golden pillar of light shot into the sky. The tremendous energy unleashed endless pressure, sweeping across the surrounding hundred meters. An immense force of attraction lifted all the shattered rocks and boulders embedded across the surrounding thousands of kilometers, drawing all matter in like a black hole.

"Dad!"

Trunks looked frantic and was about to fly over and stop Vegeta, but Son Goku held him back.

"Calm down, Trunks!"

"I don't think Vegeta will die from using this move now. He's more than ten times stronger than he was before!"

"I don't think Vegeta will die that easily."

Just as Son Goku finished speaking—

Boom!

A tremendous explosion rang out. At its center, where Lei Chen and Vegeta stood, a bottomless black hole appeared across the surrounding hundred meters.

Two figures stood in the sky. One radiated a red glow, dotted with tiny points of spiritual light.

The other was Vegeta.

Hah... Hah...

Vegeta gasped for breath, veins bulging on his forehead and muscles trembling all over as he stared at Lei Chen.

Unable to sense Lei Chen's energy, Vegeta had no idea how much power Lei Chen had used to withstand his attack.

But judging from Lei Chen's expression, he looked exactly as he had before—not the slightest change.

"Unfathomable!"

Those four words flashed through Vegeta's mind. Then, completely drained, he fell straight out of the sky.

"Vegeta!"

"Dad!"

Everyone looked shocked. Trunks was especially alarmed. Before Vegeta even hit the ground, Trunks had already caught him.

"That move of Vegeta's should be able to hurt Son Goku in his Super Saiyan God form, right? And if Goku lets his guard down, Vegeta might even kill him."

"The destructive power of that move must be around thirty trillion!"

Lei Chen watched as Trunks caught Vegeta, thinking to himself.

"Dad, don't die!"

Trunks was close to tears.

"Cough, cough!"

"Tr-Trunks, you're underestimating your father. How could I, Vegeta, die so easily? I invented that move, so of course I understand it well."

Vegeta's face was pale.

At that moment, Vegeta had no strength left at all—not even enough to stand.

"Uncle Vegeta, here. Take a Senzu Bean!"

Son Gohan flew over and handed Vegeta a Senzu Bean.

"Mm."

After eating the Senzu Bean, Vegeta immediately returned to peak condition.

By then, Son Goku had already flown up to Lei Chen.

"Kakarot, do you want to fight me too?"

Lei Chen looked at Son Goku.

"No. Even if I transformed into a Super Saiyan God, I probably couldn't withstand more than a few of your attacks. Besides, I'm still not very familiar with this transformation. I mainly want to experience the power of Super Saiyan God Blue, the form beyond Super Saiyan God."

Son Goku looked at Lei Chen earnestly.

"Sure!"

Lei Chen nodded.

A brilliant sea of starlight suddenly burst out behind him.

Lei Chen's appearance changed. His hair and eyebrows turned blue, and his pupils glimmered with a faint azure light. His aura was sacred and bright, scattered with starlike flecks. The energy was extraordinarily fluid, its outer layers undulating gently as bubble-like wisps swirled from time to time.

His battle power soared to 960 trillion.

"Th-that's incredible!"

The sudden surge in Lei Chen's energy sent Son Goku flying back more than a hundred meters. As he was flung backward, Son Goku instinctively transformed into a Super Saiyan God.

Only then was he able to withstand the force of Lei Chen's aura. Even though Beerus had beaten Lei Chen so thoroughly that he couldn't fight back, and he had only managed to keep up by relying on Instant Transmission, Lei Chen was still far stronger than any of them.

"Phew."

After transforming into Super Saiyan Blue and knocking Son Goku back, Lei Chen returned to his normal state, allowing everyone to sense his energy again.

With a battle power of thirty billion, Lei Chen was still far stronger than everyone present, even without transforming.

"All right, there's nothing else to do now. I should get going!"

With that, Lei Chen vanished before everyone's eyes using Instant Transmission.

Azure Planet.

The planet where Lei Chen had lived for more than forty years.

In a primeval forest on Azure Planet.

"Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap..."

Suddenly, footsteps rang out through the forest...

Lei Chen, who had been meditating above a great river, suddenly opened his eyes. A puzzled look crossed his face as he gazed into the distance.

"That's a Supreme Kai!"

The strange clothes and the white hair atop her head, shaped like a rooster's comb, proved beyond doubt that she was a Supreme Kai—the highest-ranking deity in the Dragon Ball world after the God of Destruction.

But the person standing before Lei Chen wasn't the useless East Supreme Kai. She was a woman, with long white hair, purple skin, Potara Earrings, and a tall figure. She was also a relatively powerful Supreme Kai.

Although her battle power was no match for Son Goku or Vegeta, it far surpassed everyone else's. She had a battle power of more than one trillion.

"How strange. This isn't like the Supreme Kai who was killed by Majin Buu in the story. With power like that, how could she have been killed by Majin Buu?"

"Could she be the West Supreme Kai? After all, Universe 7 has several Supreme Kais—the East, South, West, and North Supreme Kais, as well as the Old Supreme Kai. So another Supreme Kai isn't all that strange."

"I never thought the famous Supreme Kai would show up on this desolate planet without any humans."

Lei Chen's voice carried from ahead to the female Supreme Kai's ears.

"Who are you?"

The female Supreme Kai looked at Lei Chen in confusion. In this universe, few people besides gods or exceptionally powerful mortals ever got to meet a Supreme Kai.

"A Saiyan?"

The female Supreme Kai's expression changed when she saw the tail behind Lei Chen. Saiyans had never had a very good reputation in Universe 7. Although Son Goku had improved their standing considerably, the few Saiyans who remained were now regarded as champions of justice.
