Vermoud: You Can't Afford to Play!

"Oh no!" Toppo's expression shifted rapidly.

If this thing were to land on the Pride Troopers' headquarters, the entire base would be reduced to nothingness in an instant.

This was no laughing matter.

Was this brat doing this on purpose?

Without a moment's hesitation, Toppo appeared directly beneath the energy of destruction.

"Hah!"

Toppo thrust both hands upward, catching the falling energy of destruction just like that.

"Whew..."

Toppo let out a sigh of relief and quickly hurled the energy of destruction far away.

The energy of destruction traced an arc through the air, soared into the starry sky, and vanished from sight shortly after.

"I'm done fighting! This is no fun at all. Bring out your senior brother," Vegeta said with a faint smile.

"Senior brother? Who is that?" Toppo was stunned.

Since when did I have a senior brother?

High above.

Seeing Vegeta run Toppo ragged in just a few moves, Vermoud's expression shifted time and again.

How could this detestable brat be so powerful?

It seemed he had no choice but to have Jiren step in.

Vermoud turned his head to look at Marcarita, signaling her with a glance to contact Jiren immediately.

Only Jiren could defeat this kid.

"Hahaha, what do you think, Vermoud? Your disciple isn't up to the task, is he?" Rumsshi laughed heartily, his voice growing increasingly smug as he stepped forward to pat Vermoud on the shoulder.

"Stop being so full of yourself!" Vermoud bared his teeth.

"How about working for me for 100 years?" Rumsshi asked with a grin.

"Hmph!" Vermoud snorted.

"Are you going to keep fighting?" Rumsshi asked with a beaming smile.

"Fine, I acknowledge that your disciple is impressive. I'll work for you for 100 years," Vermoud agreed readily.

Rumsshi was slightly taken aback.

This guy agreed so quickly?

That didn't seem like his style.

"However, as I said before, he isn't my only disciple. Toppo has a senior brother," Vermoud said with a smile.

"Hmph, let that guy's senior brother come out then," Rumsshi said, looking indifferent.

Had he not seen how Vegeta was still holding back?

Even after fighting for so long, that kid had kept his hands in his pockets the entire time.

So what if he had a senior brother?

How strong could his senior brother possibly be?

Rumsshi had absolutely nothing to worry about.

"Then... since I have another disciple, let's keep the bet going," Vermoud proposed. "How about we bet on 1,000 years this time?"

Rumsshi fell silent.

Vegeta seemed very confident in his ability to defeat that senior brother.

Should he keep betting?

That was 1,000 years on the line.

If he actually won, he could just kick back and relax for the next millennium.

The mere thought made Rumsshi feel thrilled.

It was at this moment that the voices of Vegeta and Toppo drifted up from below.

"Bring out your senior brother," Vegeta said. "You're simply no match for me."

"What senior brother? What are you talking about?" Toppo was a bit bewildered.

"Don't you have a senior brother?" Vegeta smiled. "Since you're no match for me, it's only natural to have your senior brother come and help you."

"How would I know I have some sort of senior brother?" Toppo replied, looking bewildered.

Vermoud: "..."

This pig of a disciple!

You damn...

Couldn't you just play along with what he said?

Did you really have to say you didn't have a senior brother?

Now the jig is up.

Rumsshi also looked toward Vermoud with a beaming smile.

"What? Toppo actually doesn't know about his senior brother?" Rumsshi said with a laugh.

"Hmph, it's perfectly normal that he doesn't know, as Jiren finished his training quite early." Vermoud gritted his teeth and immediately descended from the sky.

Following that, Vermoud appeared instantly at Toppo's side.

"Lord Vermoud..." Toppo bowed in greeting, his face bruised and swollen.

Vermoud had been furious, but upon seeing Toppo's miserable state, he didn't know whether he should still be angry.

"You idiot, isn't Jiren your senior brother? I told you that before," Vermoud scolded.

"Jiren? Is he my senior brother?" Toppo was a bit dazed. "Why don't I have any memory of that... Isn't Jiren's master Lord Jieqing?"

Vermoud: "..."

Vermoud was ready to curse out loud right then and there.

Are you a pig?

How did I end up with such a stupid disciple?

No... Toppo wasn't stupid before.

Could it be that Vegeta beat him into a fool?

Vermoud looked at Toppo carefully; sure enough, his head was slightly deformed from being kicked.

It was only natural that his brain couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

Damn it...

This is a bit of a tragedy.

"Swish!"

Rumsshi also descended from the sky, landing rapidly beside Vegeta.

"Oh? So that senior brother Jiren you mentioned is Jieqing's disciple?" Rumsshi said with a smile.

Vermoud felt a chill in his heart, his expression shifting slightly.

This is bad!

He heard it.

This was truly a miscalculation.

"Vermoud, do you have any shame?" Rumsshi chuckled softly.

"Lord Rumsshi, did you have a bet with him earlier?" Vegeta asked.

"That's right. For the next 100 years, he is responsible for destroying planets for our universe, doing the work in my stead," Rumsshi nodded.

"Not bad, not bad. That saves me from having to do it myself in the future," Vegeta nodded in satisfaction.

"Stop being so arrogant! Jiren really is my disciple! Believe it or not!" Vermoud grew anxious and shouted at Vegeta, "Kid, do you dare to fight Jiren again?"

"Not fighting." Vegeta refused decisively.

Although I have the confidence to defeat Jiren.

I just don't want to fight.

"Lord Rumsshi, we can head back now. This trip wasn't for nothing, right?" Vegeta grinned.

"Mm, I think so." Rumsshi wiggled his elephant trunk, laughing in a smug, irritating way.

Vermoud panicked on the spot.

Don't stop fighting now.

If you stop, I'll have to work for this guy Rumsshi for the next 100 years!

It takes me several hours just to travel to Universe 10.

"Kid, are you afraid?" Vermoud gritted his teeth, trying to provoke Vegeta.

"Vegeta, let's go." Rumsshi laughed heartily, stepped forward to grab Vegeta's arm, and carried him as they shot rapidly into the sky.

Vermoud was left in disarray in the wind.

You guys are going too far.

Stopped halfway through the fight.

I've seen shameless people, but never anyone this shameless!

"You're not going anywhere!" Vermoud wasn't about to let Rumsshi just walk away like that, quickly transforming into a streak of light to give chase.

Swish!

Vermoud spread his arms, blocking the path of Rumsshi and Vegeta.

"Vermoud, can't you handle losing?" Rumsshi chuckled softly.

"The one who can't handle it is you! Who just quits after one round!" Vermoud roared.
