Vegeta had no reason to hide the matter of his immortality.

Angels know everything.

Cus must have known the secret of his immortality for a long time.

Sure enough, after saying this, Vegeta noticed that Cus, whom he was holding in front of him, didn't react at all.

It seemed Cus had known all along.

"So that's what you have—an immortal body," Rumsshi snorted, though he didn't seem particularly surprised. "Actually, for a God of Destruction, immortality is a useless trinket! You're an apprentice God of Destruction now, so you should know clearly that Gods of Destruction already possess eternal life. Once you become a full God of Destruction, your life will reach eternity."

"Yes, I know," Vegeta nodded.

"As for this talk of immortality, there's simply no need for it," Rumsshi replied. "As long as your strength is sufficient, your body will never vanish. What you need to hone is your soul. I believe you understand that battles between Gods of Destruction shake the soul! If your soul is destroyed, even if you have an immortal body, you will still vanish instantly."

"I understand the logic, I just want an immortal body," Vegeta replied.

Rumsshi: "..."

"Why is this brat so stubborn?" Rumsshi's face darkened.

"Just tell me, do you agree or not?" Vegeta said with a smile. "If you agree, I'll go to another universe with you to show off, and I guarantee I'll make you look good!"

Rumsshi suddenly felt that Vegeta's phrasing was... strange.

What did he mean by "make me look good"?

"Ahem... you said earlier, which universes are the Super Dragon Balls in?" Rumsshi asked.

"I heard they are scattered across the space of Universe 6 and Universe 7," Vegeta said.

"Universe 6 and Universe 7!" Rumsshi gritted his teeth, feeling a bit annoyed.

That wouldn't be easy to find.

Running into Champa and Beerus's universes to look for Dragon Balls...

If he wasn't discovered, everything would be fine.

But if they found out, it would be nothing but trouble.

"Cus, what do you think?" Rumsshi asked.

"Well, Yuanfang, what do you think?" Vegeta asked from behind Cus.

Cus: "????"

"Who is Yuanfang?" Rumsshi was stunned.

"It's not important," Vegeta replied.

Rumsshi: "..."

"Currently, Lord Beerus, the God of Destruction of Universe 7, is sleeping, so the Super Dragon Balls in Universe 7 should be relatively easy to find," Cus replied.

"Oh? That guy Beerus is still sleeping? He's been asleep for over a decade, hasn't he?" Rumsshi was slightly taken aback.

"Yes," Cus nodded.

"I think it's feasible. Dealing with just Champa would be much easier," Rumsshi mused.

"So you agree?" Vegeta smiled brilliantly.

"Fine. Since you make me look good, I can agree to help you find the Super Dragon Balls," Rumsshi nodded.

"Deal!" Vegeta said.

"Then... Cus, let's head to Universe 11 now," Rumsshi chuckled, then looked at Vegeta. "But tell me, kid, do you have the confidence to defeat the apprentice God of Destruction of Universe 11?"

"Hmph, you'll see when we get there," Vegeta said with an indifferent expression.

Isn't it just Toppo, the apprentice God of Destruction?

If I couldn't even beat him, these past 12 years of training would have been for nothing.

"Very well, let's set off immediately," Rumsshi said, suddenly interested. "I've long found that guy Vermoud an eyesore."

"Who else do you find an eyesore? I'll help you take care of them," Vegeta replied.

"I also find Beerus of Universe 7 an eyesore. You go take care of him," Rumsshi said.

"Understood," Vegeta nodded. "I'll deal with him sooner or later, as a repayment for your guidance over these years."

Rumsshi felt a sudden, small touch of emotion.

"Kid, it seems our efforts in raising you weren't in vain," Rumsshi laughed.

Vegeta calmly took out the small notebook from before and checked the number on it.

80060!

"Indeed, it wasn't in vain," Vegeta nodded.

"Why are you taking out that notebook again?" Rumsshi was stunned. "Come to think of it, the number on that hasn't changed in a long time."

"It's not important," Vegeta put the notebook back into his storage ring.

Cus sighed softly to the side.

Lord Rumsshi, do you still not understand what the numbers on this represent?

That brat Vegeta is brewing up something nasty.

One day, you will be the one crying...

Forget it, this is a matter between Gods of Destruction; it has nothing to do with an angel like me.

Still, the only ones Vegeta should be able to surpass are the Gods of Destruction, right?

He is still a long way from surpassing an angel.

However... his Angel Power... is growing far too quickly.

"Let's go!" Rumsshi called out, taking the lead and humming a little tune as he flew toward Universe 11.

Cus followed behind with Vegeta in tow.

Along the way, Rumsshi instructed Vegeta to destroy several more planets.

These were things that could be done with a mere flick of the wrist.

Consider it work.

Rumsshi noticed that Vegeta's enthusiasm for destroying planets was quite high, and he suddenly felt that taking on such an apprentice was a good thing.

At the very least, I don't have to participate in the work myself.

I'm too lazy to go and destroy these planets anyway.

Having an apprentice to help destroy planets really saves a lot of trouble.

About four hours later.

The trio had reached the edge of Universe 10.

Beyond this lay the nothingness of the World of Void.

"Whoosh!"

The three turned into two streaks of different colored light, instantly entering the World of Void.

They flew through the World of Void for about three more hours.

"Snap!"

The trio exited the World of Void and entered the territory of Universe 11.

Another two-plus hours passed.

Vegeta could already see the inverted triangular God of Destruction Realm appearing in the distance.

"We're almost there," Rumsshi grinned. "Vegeta, I hope you don't embarrass me."

"Hmph, if you're worried about being embarrassed, go do it yourself," Vegeta scoffed.

Rumsshi didn't want to speak anymore; he felt the urge to slap Vegeta into the next dimension.

This brat gives me less and less face.

Universe 11, God of Destruction Realm.

Vermoud, the God of Destruction of Universe 11, was staring blankly at the sky from the surface of the planet.

Marcarita, the angel, stood silently by Vermoud's side.

"Lord Vermoud, have you truly decided to retire after some time?" Marcarita asked.

"That's right, I've had enough of being a God of Destruction," Vermoud sighed. "After all, I've been a God of Destruction for tens of millions of years... it really is quite boring, and the only work is going out to destroy planets."
