130 Days, Preparing Before Heading to a Parallel Universe

"Me?"

Lin Chen was a little surprised. Why could he open a path to a designated space?

"Hey! Are you talking nonsense? Big Brother Lin Chen doesn't have superpowers. How could he possibly do any of that?"

Tights shouted from beside them.

Zuno didn't even glance at her. "You have no tribute, so you can't ask a question!"

"What? You fat bastard, I—Mmph!"

Before Tights could finish, Jaco clapped a hand over her mouth.

Come on, Tights wasn't Lin Chen. How could she speak to Lord Zuno like that?

Zuno said, "If it isn't a case of mistaken identity, then it must be you. You possess a special power. As long as you take the Time Metal to a black hole, you'll be able to open a path to a designated space."

Could it be...

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. He thought he understood what Zuno meant.

The special power Zuno was talking about was probably the system inside Lin Chen.

In other words, if he took the Time Metal to some black hole, his system might help him travel to another universe where Broly existed?

"System, is that what it means?" Lin Chen silently asked in his mind.

"Ding! In response to the host, the system is prohibited from revealing relevant information before the conditions for triggering the new feature have been met."

If you can't say so, I'll take that as a yes.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "All right, I understand. Thank you."

With that, Lin Chen prepared to leave.

But just as he turned around, he suddenly thought of something else and turned back to ask, "By the way, is there any way I can gain enough power to match a God of Destruction in a short time?"

"You've used up your chance to ask questions..." Zuno said out of habit, but he soon saw the energy ball glowing on Lin Chen's fingertip.

"First, you could undergo training with an Angel. An Angel's training can make you stronger very quickly."

"Second... There is no second method. Power can only be gained through your own training. There's no such thing as reaching the heavens in a single bound."

Zuno closed his eyes and sighed. Then he abruptly opened them and looked at Lin Chen. "No, if it's you, there might be a way to reach the heavens in a single bound."

"You really do know everything."

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

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

His attendant said indignantly, "Lord Zuno, who exactly is that Saiyan? Should we ask the Supreme Kai to deal with him?"

"Forget it! He's not someone we can handle. Not even the Supreme Kai could do anything."

Then Zuno solemnly had his attendant close the gates and temporarily stop receiving visitors for the day.

After returning from Zuno Planet, Lin Chen began preparing for his trip through time and space.

Although, according to Zuno, the Time Metal known as Tamulipus no longer existed in this world, Lin Chen knew that if he summoned Shenron, he would definitely be able to obtain a piece.

But the Dragon Balls on both planets had only recently been used, so Lin Chen would have to wait at least 130 days before he could make a wish to Namek's Shenron.

Though he had to wait 130 days, that was just right for Lin Chen.

After all, he was going to a parallel universe. Although Lin Chen could now transform into a Super Saiyan, he couldn't guarantee he would return safely.

Those 130 days would give him just enough time to train properly.

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

Sometimes, he trained hard in Earth's 500-times-gravity Gravity Room. Other times, he sparred with Hanasia, honing his skills against another Super Saiyan.

Even so, Lin Chen felt this kind of intensive training still wasn't enough.

After all, this time he would be facing Broly, the Legendary Super Saiyan who shared his bloodline.

Although this Broly looked similar to the Broly Lin Chen knew, they were completely different people. Nearly every negative emotion a Saiyan could feel had been concentrated in him, and the side effects of his bloodline had caused him to lose almost all reason at a very young age. He knew only how to fight and kill.

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 mighty Broly. In the end, they had only managed to beat him with difficulty by concentrating the energy of all the Z Fighters into Son Goku alone.

Lin Chen knew very well that in his current state, he couldn't even take on the four Super Saiyans alongside Son Goku, let alone four Haniasias at once. If he couldn't improve his strength quickly, there was a good chance he wouldn't make it back from the parallel universe.

Time passed. There wasn't much time left before Namek's Dragon Balls would be restored, but Lin Chen still felt he was falling short.

His battle power had indeed increased since more than 100 days ago, but the rate of improvement was nowhere near enough for the challenges ahead.

Hanasia had even less talent for fighting. She was already weaker than Lin Chen, and sparring with him couldn't give him any fresh insights.

Maybe I should have a match with this world's Broly?

A thought suddenly came to Lin Chen.

The powerful enemy he would face in the future was Broly from another world, but this world also had its own Broly.

If he fought this world's Broly, perhaps it could help him deal with the other Broly?

With that thought, Lin Chen immediately set off for the Lookout. There, he met Broly and explained what he had in mind.

"Big Brother Lynx, you want to fight me?"

"Yes. I might have to face a powerful enemy soon, and I hope to improve my strength. Hanasia can't help me anymore, so I thought of you!"

Lin Chen looked eagerly at Broly. Although Broly was suppressing his power at the moment, and the Scouter showed a battle power of only 5,000, Lin Chen could clearly see in his own system that Broly's battle power had already reached 1.2 million!

Lin Chen knew that Broly had never trained since birth, yet he already had a battle power of 1.2 million.

As expected of the Legendary Super Saiyan Bloodline.

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

To put it in terms of the Dragon Ball universe's lore, Broly's Legendary Super Saiyan Bloodline was the version from Dragon Ball Super, while Lin Chen's was the version from the Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie.

In terms of how much it boosted battle power, Broly's bloodline was far stronger than Lin Chen's Legendary Super Saiyan Bloodline.

So, fighting Broly would definitely help Lin Chen.

But, to Lin Chen's surprise, after hearing what he wanted, Broly seemed reluctant. "Big Brother Lynx... I don't want to fight, not even with you."

"Broly, it'll just be a little practice..."

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

Lin Chen was at a loss for words.

It was true. Hadn't Broly come to Earth with Lin Chen to escape the endless challenges from the Saiyans on Planet Vegeta?

But now Lin Chen was just like those people, wanting to fight Broly... Wouldn't that make him no different from them?

"I'm sorry, Broly. I didn't consider how you felt."

Realizing his mistake, Lin Chen immediately apologized.

But right after that, he was at a loss again. If he couldn't fight Broly, how could he improve his strength from here?
