"What? I destroyed it?" Champa exclaimed.
"That's right, Lord Champa thought this planet was in the wrong place. It looked a little obtrusive, and he apparently thought it was rather ugly. Since it was in the center of the universe, it was affecting the universe's appearance, so..." Vados sighed.
Champa: "..."
"What a blunder. How could I have done something like that?" Champa clutched his head, filled with regret.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The two were talking when—
Two streaks of light suddenly flashed across the sky.
"A spaceship?" Champa looked up.
"My, my. It looks like they're going to land near us," Vados said.
"What an inconsiderate fool! He actually chose to land right next to me!" Champa was even more annoyed. He casually tossed away the chicken leg he'd eaten halfway.
"Whoosh!"
Champa's chicken leg turned into a streak of light. It shot past Vegeta's spaceship in an instant and slammed straight into Cui's spaceship.
"Vegeta, is this the grave you picked out for yourself?" Cui laughed loudly, completely unaware. "This planet's not bad, though. It's a famous, major planet in the Central Universe. You should be grateful I'm letting you die here!"
"Thwack!"
As Cui was speaking, the chicken leg pierced right through the spaceship and smacked him in the mouth.
"Crack..."
Six of Cui's teeth were knocked out on the spot, and blood sprayed from his mouth.
Cui was dumbfounded.
What was this...?
What was that thing?
Cui opened his mouth and pulled out the object inside.
Wasn't this a chicken leg?
How had a chicken leg gotten into his spaceship?
But before Cui could react—
"Hiss... hiss... hiss..."
Cui's spaceship sputtered through the air like a deflating balloon.
"Crash!"
The spaceship plunged from the sky and slammed into the gigantic Beerus Statue in the distance.
"Rumble!"
The Beerus Statue immediately lost its balance and came crashing down.
The whole place descended into chaos.
"Lord Champa did that on purpose, didn't he?" Vados said with a smile.
"Clap!"
As she spoke, Vados gently raised her right hand, ready to catch Vegeta's descending spaceship.
"Hmph. I'd been sick of that statue for a long time. Why was it pointing at me?" Champa snorted. "But now that you mention it, you're being awfully gentle with that spaceship."
"Hehe... We angels are always gentle," Vados giggled.
Champa: "..."
"Lord Champa, why did you hit the spaceship behind us with a chicken leg instead of the one in front?" Vados asked with a smile.
"Hmph. A smaller target makes it more satisfying," Champa said with a grin.
Vegeta's eyes widened in disbelief.
Wasn't that Champa and Vados?
What were they doing in Universe 7?
Vegeta had just seen a flash of light, hadn't he?
Right!
It went behind them!
Vegeta immediately turned to look back.
Then he saw what had happened to the spaceship behind him.
Vegeta did his best to stay calm.
I've only been here five days, and I'm already facing hell mode.
I can't afford to provoke either of them.
The next moment, Vegeta looked closely and saw that Vados had already reached out to catch the spaceship.
Vegeta suddenly understood.
So our spaceship had been coming in at the wrong angle.
We'd nearly landed right next to Champa and Vados.
No wonder that guy's spaceship had been knocked away by Champa.
Without the slightest hesitation, Vegeta rushed forward and pulled the handbrake all the way.
At the same time, he pressed down hard on the brakes with both feet.
"Clack!"
The spaceship came to an abrupt stop about ten meters from Vados.
"Phew..."
Vegeta let out a small sigh of relief, but he knew that didn't mean he was out of danger.
I'm a Saiyan with a power level of just over ten thousand.
I'm nothing in front of Champa.
"Oh?" Champa paused, then looked up at Vegeta's spaceship.
Vados also looked over, somewhat surprised.
She'd thought she would be able to catch the spaceship.
But she hadn't expected it to stop.
The commotion over here should have attracted plenty of attention, but everyone had already been drawn to the Beerus Statue's collapse.
The collapse of the Beerus Statue was even more serious than what had happened here.
After all, that statue was the soul of this planet.
Now that its soul had fallen, wouldn't the planet face total disaster?
Quite a few people were gathered around the statue, chattering among themselves.
"Clap!"
Vegeta immediately flew out of the spaceship and slowly landed opposite Vados.
"My, my. You're just a child," Vados said with a smile.
"This brat must have taken his family's spaceship for a joyride, hasn't he?" Champa said coldly. "Should I teach him a lesson on behalf of his parents?"
"Little one, that was very dangerous just now." Vados crouched down, took Vegeta's small hand, and spoke gently.
Vegeta: "..."
What the hell...
They actually think I'm a kid.
Well, right!
I'm only five years old.
What else would they think I am?
"I understand," Vegeta replied simply.
"Hehe, this little one's pretty cute." Vados smiled and pinched Vegeta's cheek. "Your cheeks are so chubby. This is fun."
Vegeta: "..."
Just you wait.
I'll pay you back double for what you've done to me!
You even pinched my face.
When the time comes, I won't just pinch your face. I'll pinch your... mm-hmm...
"Vados, look. You pinched the brat so much he's drooling," Champa said with a smile.
"My, my... How embarrassing." Vados giggled, then casually wiped the drool Vegeta had left onto his clothes.
Vegeta: "..."
"Little one, would you like some candy?" Vados gently raised her right hand, and a piece of chocolate appeared in it.
Vegeta glanced at the chocolate in Vados's hand, then immediately took it, unwrapped it, and popped it into his mouth.
It tasted pretty good.
A little better than he'd expected.
"Let's go," Champa said to Vados. "While that guy Beerus is asleep, let's explore his universe. We might discover something new."
"Sure." Vados nodded, then patted Vegeta's cheek. "Goodbye, little one."
"Big sister, you're really pretty. When I grow up, can I marry you?" Vegeta asked earnestly.
Vados froze mid-step.
Champa also froze, then turned to look at Vegeta.
