Mai nodded, agreeing with Trunks's idea. "Indeed, since we're already here, let's help the people of this timeline. After all, Cell is still very dangerous!"
Trunks said, "According to my memories, Frieza and his father should be coming for revenge around this time. Let's deal with Frieza and the others first."
"Mm, Trunks, then let's go," Mai said.
Bang~
Trunks put the time machine back into a Capsule Corp capsule, then solemnly placed it in the box inside his pocket.
Just as Trunks and Mai were preparing to leave together, Li Wei teleported over with Ikaros.
"Yo, time travelers. Welcome to this world," Li Wei greeted them with a smile.
Trunks's gaze sharpened, and he swiftly shielded Mai behind him. "Who are you?!"
Li Wei smiled. "That's what I should be asking. Who are you two?"
Trunks frowned, his eyes repeatedly sweeping over Li Wei and Ikaros. In the end, he confirmed that he did not know them and had never seen them before.
"I'm Trunks, and this is my girlfriend, Mai. We're just passing through," Trunks said.
"Just passing through? Then I'll tentatively believe that you're merely passing through, Trunks."
With a soft chuckle, Li Wei asked, "You two time travelers, would you like to visit my home? It's in West City, not far from here."
"What?!"
Trunks had originally intended to refuse Li Wei's invitation, but the moment he heard that Li Wei's home was in West City, he immediately lost his composure.
"Who exactly are you?! Why do you know that we're time travelers?!" Trunks's hand had already gripped the hilt of his sword, ready to strike at any moment.
Seeing this, Ikaros's pupils turned red, and she too assumed a stance ready for battle.
Li Wei rubbed Ikaros's head, and the girl's scarlet pupils immediately returned to green as her fighting spirit vanished.
"You seem to have misunderstood something. You are the outsiders here. If anyone should be questioning someone, it should be me questioning you."
Li Wei glanced at Trunks and smiled with narrowed eyes. "So, Trunks? Would you like to come to West City with me? There may be someone there whom you know."
Trunks's pupils contracted at those words. Gritting his teeth, he glared at Li Wei and said, "Fine! I'll go with you!"
"Then let's go." Li Wei raised a hand and snapped his fingers, teleporting everyone present to Noah's Temple.
Whoosh!
Everyone arrived atop the temple.
Trunks and Mai only felt their vision blur before realizing they had appeared somewhere else, startling them both slightly.
"Instant Transmission? But he never touched Mai or me. How did he move us too?"
Trunks frowned in thought, his eyes filled with wariness as he looked at Li Wei. This man, whom he had never met before, was far too mysterious and gave him an immense sense of pressure.
"Yo, Li Wei, you're back!" Son Goku spotted Li Wei's return and immediately walked over with a smile.
Hearing that familiar voice, Trunks was startled and hurriedly turned his head, only to see two familiar figures.
"Uncle Goku, and Dad... Mr. Vegeta!" Trunks instinctively nearly called him Dad, but caught himself at the last moment and hastily changed his words.
"Hmm?!"
Son Goku and Vegeta looked at Trunks in confusion.
"Li Wei, who's he?" Son Goku asked curiously.
Vegeta, meanwhile, scrutinized Trunks. He sensed a familiar aura from this young man.
As for Mai, Vegeta simply ignored her.
Whoosh!
At that moment, Cumber also flashed over. He looked Trunks up and down, then laughed loudly. "Hahaha, another remarkable kinsman! So, how about it? Want to have a match?"
Hearing Cumber's words, Vegeta's gaze sharpened as he also realized something.
No wonder this young man's aura had felt so familiar. It was the aura of a Saiyan!
"You, are you a Saiyan?" Vegeta demanded.
Faced with the questioning of his father from this timeline, Trunks silently nodded, acknowledging his identity. At the same time, he looked curiously at Cumber... another person he did not recognize, and judging by appearances, likely a Saiyan as well.
Seeing everyone's attention focused on Trunks, Li Wei could not help but chuckle. "Let me introduce them. This is Trunks, and this lady is Mai. They are both time travelers."
"Time travelers?!"
Son Goku looked utterly confused, while Cumber wore an enlightened expression.
Vegeta frowned, deep in thought... a time traveler, with the same name as his son, and also a Saiyan. Could this young man be...
Indeed, Trunks of this world had already been born and was one or two years old, already able to walk around on his own.
Incidentally, Goten had also been born early, though he was still one year younger than Trunks.
"So they're from another timeline? Interesting. It seems there are some fine kinsmen in other worlds as well! Hahaha!" Cumber laughed heartily.
Vegeta, however, snorted coldly and demanded, "Trunks from another world, why did you come to this world? Did something happen to your world?"
Those words made both Trunks and Mai lower their heads, their hearts heavy.
Their universe was already gone.
As for why it was gone? You'd have to ask Zamasu!
Seeing this, Li Wei decided not to keep them in suspense any longer. Smiling, he said, "Vegeta, I'm sure you've already guessed it. Trunks is your and Bulma's child from another timeline."
"As for why he came to this world, I'd guess that his world is most likely gone."
"What?!"
Son Goku and Vegeta both widened their eyes, but their expressions were completely different.
After his initial shock, Son Goku's face immediately turned serious. What did Li Wei mean, Trunks's world was gone?! What about Earth? What about his family?
After his initial shock, Vegeta's face twisted with anger. What did Li Wei mean, Trunks's world was gone? What about his Bulma?
Compared to Son Goku and Vegeta, Trunks and Mai were no less shocked!
Trunks stared at Li Wei in disbelief. How did this person know where he had come from?
Noticing Trunks's puzzled gaze, Li Wei had no intention of explaining. Figure it out yourself!
"Li Wei, what did you mean by that? Could it be that Trunks's Earth was destroyed by some powerful enemy?!" Son Goku asked anxiously.
Vegeta, however, did not care about Earth. He strode up to Trunks, grabbed him by the collar, and demanded, "What exactly happened in your world? Where's your mother? How is she?!"
