Beerus Visits Earth

As soon as he arrived in the main universe, Wukong sensed that Trunks and Vegeta had already returned. He immediately withdrew from his meditative state and quickly teleported in front of Vegeta.

Vegeta looked at the current Wukong. He knew he had to train now. He could feel that the gap between Wukong's energy and his own was growing wider and wider, though it was not yet to the point where Wukong could kill him instantly.

Trunks looked at Wukong in front of him. He could also clearly sense that Wukong's energy was far, far stronger than the last time he had seen him.

"Uncle Wukong, what kind of training method is this meditation of yours, exactly? It made you this strong in such a short time."

Wukong smiled. He stretched out a hand, motioning for Trunks and Vegeta to follow him.

"All right. Wait for me to take Mai inside."

After saying that, Trunks picked Mai up and carried her into the house. About two or three minutes later, Trunks came back out.

"Let's go."

Wukong brought Trunks and Vegeta to a forest. This was the place where he had meditated before. He had the two of them sit down and began teaching them how to meditate.

Vegeta was a little impatient at first. He was used to direct clashes of power, and this seemingly calm training method felt awkward to him. To Vegeta, although this method could improve strength quickly, in his heart, it was nowhere near as comfortable as the muscle memory gained from fighting more battles.

"Vegeta, if you want to become stronger, you have to first learn stillness, then go and feel this power. And this is only the foundation."

"I'm not learning it. Not learning. It's boring."

Vegeta refused this method, but Trunks beside him was especially absorbed. After all, being able to learn this kind of training method could not be better for him. In the future timeline, there were not that many enemies for him to train against. The only ones he could train with were enemies who came even stronger.

And Wukong was still trying to persuade Vegeta to learn this training method. After all, with this kind of training method, once one reached Jiren's level and could enter a meditative state anytime, anywhere, that would be the best. There would be no need to rely on external power.

Right now, they needed to rely on the power of nature to slowly build a solid foundation. This was also why Wukong did not enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to train.

"No, Kakarot. I'll learn it when I need it. After all, I still have the power of the Seed of Divine Wrath right now."

"Oh, Vegeta..."

Just as Wukong and Vegeta were arguing endlessly, two familiar faces arrived.

His form was light and graceful, as if he could drift away on the wind at any moment. His skin was a faint blue, a shade that was neither the darkness of the deep sea nor the brightness of the sky, but a mysterious color somewhere between the two, making one think of the deepest nebulae in the universe.

His hair was pure silver-white, long and smooth, resting lightly on his shoulders and swaying gently with every tiny movement he made. His eyes were a deep purple, as if they could see into people's hearts, and as if they contained all the secrets of the universe. When he gazed into the distance, those eyes seemed able to pierce through time and space and see the end of the cosmos.

The other person's skin was purple. He wore a golden earring on one ear, but his attire had shed its former extravagance. In its place was a normal set of men's clothing.

His figure was rather thin, and the aura of the powerful warrior he had once been could hardly be detected in his body anymore. Only some residual strength and his formidable martial skill remained. Even the power of destruction he had once been most proud of had all but vanished. Now, from the outside, he looked like nothing more than a cat that could stand, walk, and talk.

The newcomers were Whis and Beerus.

"Sun Wukong, Vegeta, long time no see."

Beerus was the first to break the silence and speak, but Vegeta had no intention of acknowledging him at all. Instead, Wukong looked at Beerus in front of him, wanting to respond, yet also not wanting to respond.

After thinking like that for a full minute, Wukong still answered.

"Long time no see, Beerus."

Whis, standing beside him, also said nothing. He only quietly watched Wukong, because he knew Wukong and the others were the victims. It was only normal that they did not want to speak to Beerus.

Beerus's face was filled with weariness. Although his power of destruction had not been completely taken away, the tiny amount left could, at most, sustain his life and daily routine.

"Beerus, what are you doing here?"

Vegeta looked at Beerus coldly.

"I want to ask you for a favor."

"A favor?"

When he heard those two words, Vegeta forced down the anger in his heart and repeated them. But he still did not tear off the mask completely. Instead, he asked for the reason.

"I want to ask you and Sun Wukong to go speak to Lord Grand Zeno on my behalf and ask him to give me back the power of destruction. I swear, I will never misuse the power of destruction again..."

"Enough! What are we supposed to give the power of destruction back to you for?! So you can destroy our home again?"

Vegeta practically roared those words. In his eyes, Beerus had sent his friends to their deaths, including their families, and even those innocent people had become souls lost by his hand. How did someone like that still have the face to come and ask the two of them for help?

"Without the power of destruction, I'm just prey for anyone to slaughter. And those Gods of Destruction from other universes will definitely make me a sacrificial offering for the new God of Destruction."

"Mm. And what does that have to do with me? When you and Vermoud destroyed our home, when he beat our friends to death, when you cruelly destroyed Bulma, you should have prepared yourself to accept punishment."

"But..."

Vegeta did not want to listen to him ramble anymore. Whis, Wukong, and Trunks beside him only stood where they were without speaking. Whis had been given an order by the Grand Priest and could not put in a good word for him, while Wukong remained silent.

"No more buts. I'll give you three seconds. If you haven't left my sight within three seconds, I'll use your own method to destroy you."

Beerus's face was filled with shock. He could not believe Vegeta would be this cold. But putting himself in Vegeta's shoes, if his own home had been destroyed by his good friend, and that friend had personally killed his wife and child in front of many people, who could endure that?

"Three... two... one."

Vegeta finished counting. By then, he had already raised both hands and gathered energy, while Beerus closed his eyes, ready to endure Vegeta's wrath.

"Sky-Piercing Cannon!"

Vegeta did not bother with any feints. He suddenly opened his eyes, purple light flashing in his pupils. With a loud shout, he thrust both hands forward and released the energy he had built up for so long. A dazzling pillar of light shot from his hands straight into the heavens, as if it meant to tear the sky apart.

The force of the Sky-Piercing Cannon was so great that the entire valley shook from it. The pillar of light pierced through the clouds and struck the firmament. A massive hole appeared in the sky, and sunlight poured down through it, illuminating the entire valley.

But when the light wave faded, Wukong was seen blocking the attack in his Ultra Instinct Sign state. When Vegeta saw Sun Wukong in front of him, his face filled with confusion.

"Kakarot, what are you doing?"

It wasn't that Wukong was being softhearted; it was just that Beerus had been revived only with great difficulty. If Vegeta destroyed him with that one attack, it would be more loss than gain.

"Vegeta, let him fend for himself."

Cold sweat poured down Beerus's face, because for the first time, he felt how fragile he was without the power of destruction. If Wukong had not blocked that attack for him just now, he might already have been reporting to King Yemma.

Wukong turned his head back and looked at Beerus coldly, saying nothing.

"Sun Wukong..."

"Whis, take him away. From now on, if there's nothing important, don't let him come to Earth again."

"Yes, Mr. Wukong."

After saying that, Whis took the nearly collapsed Beerus away from this place he had once destroyed twice.
