Female Supreme Kai

Piccolo, who had once seen Vegeta use this technique against Majin Buu, exclaimed in shock; he could not fathom why Vegeta would resort to it again.

One had to remember that after Vegeta used this move against Majin Buu in the past, he had ended up dying.

"What!"

Hearing Piccolo's words, the crowd was stunned.

"Dad, stop it!"

Even Trunks was frantic this time; he had been present when they fought Majin Buu before.

Vegeta ignored the others, his expression unchanging as he stared at Lei Chen.

"Lei Chen, if you're careless, you'll die."

As the words fell, a thick, monstrous wave of endless golden energy erupted from Vegeta's body.

In an instant, a golden pillar of light shot into the sky. The immense energy generated endless wind pressure, sweeping across a hundred-meter radius. A massive gravitational pull lifted all the rubble and rocks scattered for thousands of kilometers, drawing all matter into it like a black hole.

"Dad!"

Trunks's face was filled with agitation, and he was about to fly over to stop Vegeta, but Son Goku held him back.

"Calm down, Trunks!"

"I don't think Vegeta will die from using this move now. You have to realize that Vegeta is more than ten times stronger than he was before!"

"I don't believe Vegeta will die so easily."

As soon as Son Goku finished speaking:

BOOM!

A massive explosion rang out, and a bottomless black hole appeared, centered on Lei Chen and Vegeta, spanning a hundred meters in diameter.

High in the sky stood two figures. One radiated a faint, starlit red aura.

The other was Vegeta.

Haa... huff...

Vegeta gasped for air, the veins on his forehead bulging and his muscles trembling all over. His gaze remained fixed on Lei Chen opposite him.

Because he could not sense Lei Chen's energy, Vegeta had no idea how much power Lei Chen had used to withstand his attack.

But looking at Lei Chen's face, his expression remained exactly as it had been before—completely unchanged.

"Inscrutable!"

These four words flashed through Vegeta's mind before his stamina finally gave out, and he plummeted from the sky.

"Vegeta!"

"Dad!"

The crowd was shocked. Trunks, in particular, caught Vegeta's body before he could hit the ground.

Vegeta's move should be enough to injure Son Goku in his Super Saiyan God state. If Son Goku is careless, he might even be killed by Vegeta.

The destructive power of this move must be around 30 trillion!

Lei Chen thought to himself as he watched Trunks catch Vegeta.

"Dad, please don't die!"

Trunks said, on the verge of tears.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"Trunks, you underestimate your father. How could I, Vegeta, die so easily? I created this technique, so naturally, I understand it well."

Vegeta said, his face pale.

At this moment, Vegeta was completely drained; he didn't even have the strength to stand up.

"Here, Uncle Vegeta, take this Senzu Bean!"

Son Gohan flew over and handed Vegeta a Senzu Bean.

"Mmph."

After swallowing the Senzu Bean, Vegeta immediately returned to his peak state.

At this moment, Son Goku had already flown up to face Lei Chen.

"Kakarot, do you want to fight me as well?"

Lei Chen asked, his gaze fixed on Son Goku.

"No. Even if I transformed into a Super Saiyan God right now, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to take more than a few of your blows. Besides, I'm not yet fully accustomed to the Super Saiyan God transformation. I mainly want to experience the power of the Super Saiyan God Blue that lies beyond the Super Saiyan God."

Son Goku looked at Lei Chen with a serious expression.

"Very well!"

Lei Chen nodded.

Behind him, a brilliant ocean of starlight suddenly erupted.

Lei Chen's appearance underwent a transformation; his hair and eyebrows turned blue, and his pupils glowed with a faint, ethereal azure light. His surrounding aura became sacred and radiant, scattered with starlike specks. This energy was incredibly fluid, undulating slowly on the outer layer and swirling with bubble-like ripples.

His combat power surged to 960 trillion.

"So... so powerful?"

Son Goku was forced back over a hundred meters by the sudden explosion of Lei Chen's energy. In the instant he was sent flying, Son Goku instinctively transformed into a Super Saiyan God.

Only then did he manage to withstand the impact of Lei Chen's pressure. Even though Lei Chen had been completely unable to fight back against Beerus and had only barely managed to keep up by using Instant Transmission, he was still far stronger than them.

"Whew."

After forcing Son Goku back with his Super Saiyan Blue transformation, Lei Chen reverted to his base form, and his energy became perceptible to everyone once again.

With a combat power of 30 billion, Lei Chen was still far stronger than anyone else present, even without transforming.

"Alright, there's nothing else to do now, so I should be going!"

With that, Lei Chen vanished before them using Instant Transmission.

Azure Planet.

The planet where Lei Chen had lived for over forty years.

Deep within a primeval forest on Azure Planet.

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

Suddenly, footsteps echoed through the forest...

Lei Chen, who had been meditating while hovering over a large river, suddenly opened his eyes. His face was full of confusion as he looked into the distance.

That's a Supreme Kai!

The strange attire and the white, cockscomb-like hair on her head were undeniable proof that the person before him was a Supreme Kai, a being second only to the God of Destruction in this Dragon Ball world.

However, the person who appeared before Lei Chen was not the useless East Supreme Kai, but a woman with long white hair, purple skin, and Potara earrings. She was tall and possessed a relatively formidable level of strength.

Although her combat power could not compare to Son Goku or Vegeta, she was far stronger than the others, boasting a combat power of over 1 trillion.

This is truly strange. This is different from the Supreme Kai who was killed by Majin Buu in the original story. Her power is so great; how could she have been killed by Majin Buu?

Could she not be the West Supreme Kai? After all, Universe 7 has several Supreme Kais—the North, South, East, West, and the Old Supreme Kai. It wouldn't be strange if there were another one.

"I never expected the illustrious Supreme Kai to appear on such a lowly planet devoid of humans."

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

"Who are you?"

The female Supreme Kai looked at Lei Chen with a puzzled expression. In this universe, aside from gods or exceptionally powerful mortals, there were very few who could actually see a Supreme Kai.

"A Saiyan?"

The moment the female Supreme Kai spotted the tail behind Lei Chen, her expression changed. In Universe 7, the reputation of Saiyans had never been good. Although Son Goku had improved their image significantly, turning the few remaining Saiyans into embodiments of justice, her wariness remained.
