"Me?"

Lin Chen was somewhat surprised. Why would he be able to open a path to a designated space?

"Hey! Are you talking nonsense? Brother Lin Chen doesn't even have superpowers, how could he possibly do something like that?"

Beside him, Tights shouted.

Zuno didn't even glance at her: "You have no tribute, so you cannot ask questions!"

"What? You fat slob, I... wuwuwu!"

Before Tights could finish, Jaco covered her mouth.

Good grief, Tights wasn't Lin Chen; how could she speak to Lord Zuno like that?

Zuno said: "If it isn't a case of shared names, then it is you. You possess a special power; as long as you take the Time Metal to a black hole, you can open a path to the designated space."

Could it be...

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. He began to understand what Zuno meant.

The special power Zuno spoke of was likely the system within Lin Chen's body.

In other words, as long as he took the Time Metal to a certain black hole, his system might help him travel to the timeline where the other Broly resided?

System, is that what you mean? Lin Chen asked silently in his heart.

"Ding! Responding to the host, the system is prohibited from disclosing relevant information before the trigger conditions for new functions are met."

If it couldn't say, that was as good as a confirmation.

Lin Chen smiled and said: "Alright, I understand. Thank you."

With that, Lin Chen prepared to leave.

But just as he turned, another thought occurred to him. He turned back and asked: "By the way, is there any way for me to gain power comparable to a God of Destruction in a short amount of time?"

"Your opportunity to ask questions has been used up..." Zuno said habitually, but he quickly saw the energy ball lighting up on Lin Chen's fingertip.

"The first method is to accept an Angel's training. An Angel's training can make you grow stronger rapidly."

"The second method... there isn't one. Power is something that can only be gained through one's own cultivation; there has never been any shortcut to the heavens."

Zuno closed his eyes, sighed, then suddenly opened them again and looked at Lin Chen: "No, if it is you, perhaps there is a way to reach the heavens in a single bound."

"You really are all-knowing."

Lin Chen smiled, then turned to Tights and the others and said: "Let's go! We're heading back to Earth."

Watching the place where Lin Chen and the others had vanished, the all-knowing Zuno finally let out a sigh of relief.

His attendant asked indignantly: "Lord Zuno, what exactly is the background of that Saiyan? Should we ask the Supreme Kai to deal with him?"

"Forget it! He is not an existence we can handle, not even the Supreme Kai could."

Afterward, Zuno solemnly ordered his attendant to close the gates; they would be closed to visitors for the day.

After returning from Zuno Planet, Lin Chen began preparing for this time-travel journey.

Although Zuno said the Time Metal no longer existed in this world, Lin Chen knew that as long as he summoned Shenron, he would certainly be able to obtain a piece.

However, the Shenrons of both planets had been used recently. If Lin Chen wanted to use them again, he would have to wait at least 130 days before he could make a wish to the Namekian Shenron.

Although he had to wait 130 days, for Lin Chen, this duration was just right.

After all, he was heading to another parallel timeline. Although Lin Chen could now transform into a Super Saiyan, he dared not guarantee that he would return safely.

The 130 days would allow Lin Chen to train properly.

Thus, in the time that followed, Lin Chen trained between Earth and Planet Vegeta.

Sometimes he would train bitterly in the 500x gravity room on Earth, and other times, Lin Chen would spar with Hanasia to hone his combat skills as a Super Saiyan.

Yet, Lin Chen felt that such hard training was still not enough.

After all, the person he was going to face was the legendary Super Saiyan Broly, who shared the same bloodline as himself.

Although this Broly looked similar to the one Lin Chen knew, they were two completely different people. Almost all the negative emotions of the Saiyans were concentrated within him, and due to the side effects of his bloodline, that Broly had long since lost his sanity, knowing only battle and slaughter.

In the story Lin Chen knew, Son Goku and the others had gathered the power of four Super Saiyans, yet they still couldn't defeat the powerful Broly. In the end, it was only by having all the Z Fighters concentrate their ki into Son Goku that they managed to defeat him with great difficulty.

Lin Chen knew very well that in his current state, let alone facing those four Super Saiyans at once, even facing four Hanasias simultaneously would be difficult. If he couldn't improve his strength quickly, this trip to the parallel timeline would likely be fraught with danger.

Time flowed by, and there wasn't much time left until the Namekian Shenron could be summoned again, but Lin Chen still felt he was lacking.

Compared to over 100 days ago, his combat power had indeed increased, but this rate of improvement was far from enough for the difficulties he was about to face.

Hanasia lacked talent in combat, and since she was already weaker than Lin Chen, sparring with her didn't provide him with any new insights.

How about I have a match with the Broly of this world?

A thought suddenly surfaced in Lin Chen's mind.

Although the powerful enemy he would face in the future was the Broly from another world, there was also a Broly in this world.

If he sparred with the Broly of this world, perhaps it would help him deal with the other one?

Thinking of this, Lin Chen immediately set off for the Lookout, met with Broly, and proposed his intent.

"Brother Lynx, you want to spar with me?"

"Yes. I might be facing a formidable enemy soon and hope to boost my strength. Hanasia can no longer help me with that, so I thought of you!"

Lin Chen looked at Broly before him with a hint of delight. Although Broly was suppressing his aura at the moment, the Scouter only displayed a combat power of 5,000.

Yet, within Lin Chen's own system, he could clearly see that Broly's combat power had already reached 1.2 million!

Lin Chen was well aware that since birth, Broly had never once trained, and yet he possessed a combat power of 1.2 million just like that.

He truly lived up to the bloodline of the Legendary Super Saiyan.

Broly's Legendary Super Saiyan bloodline was somewhat different from Lin Chen's.

If one were to use the settings of the Dragon Ball world, Broly's bloodline was that of the Dragon Ball Super version, while Lin Chen's was that of the Super Battle movie version.

In terms of combat power amplification, Broly's bloodline was far stronger than Lin Chen's.

Therefore, if he could have a match with Broly, it would certainly be of great help to Lin Chen.

However, to Lin Chen's surprise, upon understanding his intent, Broly resisted, saying, "Brother Lynx... I don't want to fight, not even with you."

"Broly, we're just practicing..."

"Brother Lynx, have you forgotten why I came to Earth in the first place?"

Lin Chen was momentarily speechless.

Indeed, hadn't Broly and Lin Chen come to Earth precisely to escape the endless, day-after-day challenges from the Saiyans on Planet Vegeta?

And now, Lin Chen was acting just like those people, wanting to have a bout with Broly... wouldn't that make him no different from them?

"I'm sorry, Broly. I didn't consider your feelings."

Realizing his mistake, Lin Chen apologized immediately.

But immediately after, he found himself in a dilemma; if he couldn't spar with Broly, how exactly was he supposed to improve his strength from here on out?
