"Snap!"
Vegeta's hands suddenly condensed an even larger sphere of Destruction energy.
"You... what are you doing?" Rumsshi was taken aback.
"Hmph, enough talk. Get out of my way; I've decided to destroy this planet." Vegeta snorted.
Rumsshi: "..."
"You... what did you say? You decided?" Rumsshi's face darkened.
I haven't retired yet.
You decided to destroy this planet?
Why does that sound so strange?
It's as if you've already become the God of Destruction yourself.
"No one is going to stop me today!" Vegeta declared, the purple-red energy in his hands swelling larger and larger.
In an instant, the Destruction energy Vegeta had gathered expanded to a diameter of about ten meters.
"Hakai!"
Vegeta pressed his hands downward.
"Whoosh!"
The Destruction energy surged downward, rolling toward the red planet below.
"Kid, get your head straight! Whether or not this planet gets destroyed is for me to decide!" Rumsshi's face turned grim as he swung his large hand downward.
"Whoosh!"
A beam of Destruction energy erupted from Rumsshi's hand.
This energy slammed rapidly into the purple-red sphere Vegeta had condensed.
And then... nothing happened.
Rumsshi stood there, stunned.
According to Rumsshi's logic, his own Destruction energy should have shattered Vegeta's sphere on impact.
But why was it completely unaffected?
Vegeta's Destruction energy remained intact, continuing its descent toward the red planet below.
"What is going on?" Rumsshi's eyes widened.
Vegeta didn't say a word.
"Don't you get cocky, kid!" Rumsshi roared, quickly giving chase to the sphere of energy.
With a flash of movement, Rumsshi appeared directly beneath the Destruction energy.
He followed up with a fierce kick.
Rumsshi was certain that this strike would send Vegeta's energy flying away.
However, the moment his foot made contact with the energy, he was suddenly struck by a terrifying aura of death emanating from it.
Yet, strangely, this aura of death also carried a remarkably radiant, positive side.
To Rumsshi, it felt as if the Destruction energy were speaking to him.
The message was clear: Hurry up and die; once you're dead, you'll enjoy a much better life.
Rumsshi: "..."
Rumsshi shook his head violently.
What kind of twisted logic is that?
What on earth is going on here?
Breaking out in a cold sweat, Rumsshi hurriedly retreated from the energy's range and reappeared to the side.
He turned his head to look closely at the direction of the Destruction energy.
"What? Angel power?" Rumsshi was stunned once more.
He clearly sensed that this Destruction energy actually contained the power of an Angel.
What kind of situation is this?
But Rumsshi had no time to ponder it further.
"Hey, Gowasu, you idiot, why are you still standing there in a daze? Get up here!" Rumsshi shouted down toward the planet's surface. "This planet is about to be destroyed!"
After shouting, his expression became incredibly complex.
Is... is this really something I, a God of Destruction, would say?
I'm actually unable to stop my own apprentice from destroying a planet?
At that moment, Rumsshi felt a profound sense of defeat.
Below.
In the outer courtyard of the Planet Lord's palace.
Rumsshi's voice drifted down from above.
Gowasu also caught sight of that massive energy of destruction.
After a brief moment of stupor, Gowasu immediately snapped back to his senses.
"It... it is Lord Rumsshi... I did think that thing looked somewhat familiar." Gowasu wiped away his sweat.
"Rumsshi? Who is that?" Zamasu asked.
"A God of Destruction," Gowasu replied.
"A God of Destruction?" Zamasu had never heard of such a thing.
"What God of Destruction?" The Planet Lord was also stunned.
"Oh no! That thing is about to land!" Zamasu exclaimed.
"Run!" Gowasu said, chanting a spell under his breath.
"Kai Kai!"
"Swish!"
A flash of light erupted from Gowasu's body, and he immediately vanished from the spot via Instant Transmission.
Zamasu: "..."
Ten thousand alpacas stampeded through Zamasu's heart.
You could have at least waited for me.
"Whoosh!"
Zamasu's reaction was also extremely swift; he immediately shot into the sky.
"Hey, what about me?" The Planet Lord panicked.
Zamasu offered a contemptuous smile.
What about you?
Do whatever you have to do...
I feel like you're beyond saving.
"Snap!"
The next moment, the energy of destruction released by Vegeta struck the surface of the planet.
For an instant, time seemed to stand still.
Immediately following, the entire planet shattered like a soap bubble.
The planet turned into nothingness, vanishing completely from this universe.
"Not bad, not bad. Now this is what I call a sense of accomplishment." Vegeta grinned, revealing a row of pearly white teeth.
"Kid, have you lost your mind? Do you even know what you've done?" Rumsshi's face turned deathly pale.
"I destroyed the planet. What else could I have done?" Vegeta smiled.
"Wasn't the deal to destroy only half?" Rumsshi roared.
"I intended to destroy half, but wasn't I stopped by you?" Vegeta replied.
Rumsshi: "..."
"I stopped you because the Supreme Kai was down there!" Rumsshi shouted.
"Him being down there is his own business. Why did you have to stop me? You could have just told him to move," Vegeta answered with a tone of righteous indignation.
"You brat..." Rumsshi didn't even know how to retort. He was just about to fly into a rage and give Vegeta a proper thrashing.
"Oh my, oh my. Mr. Vegeta must not know that the lives of the Supreme Kai and the God of Destruction are linked, right?" Cus stepped in to play the peacemaker.
"Oh? Is that so?" Vegeta feigned surprise. "Well, my mistake, my mistake... I didn't know. You should have told me sooner."
Rumsshi: "..."
Rumsshi was trembling with rage.
This brat is becoming increasingly disrespectful toward me.
It seems if I don't give you a good beating, you won't know who the real God of Destruction is!
"Swish!"
Just then, Gowasu used Instant Transmission and appeared in the vicinity of Rumsshi.
"It really is Lord Rumsshi." Gowasu immediately bowed, then turned to bow to Cus as well. "Greetings, Lady Cus."
"It has been a long time, Lord Gowasu," Cus greeted with a smile.
"Hmph, Gowasu, what are you doing wandering around here for no reason?" Rumsshi said irritably.
"This planet... was it really destroyed by Lord Rumsshi just like that?" Gowasu glanced at the spot where the planet had vanished and sighed. "I had actually hoped to let this planet continue to develop... there was absolutely no need for this planet to be destroyed."
