The Stronger They Are, the Less I Want to Fight!

Inside an independent pocket dimension.

Shin used his divine senses to inspect Majin Buu's egg inside and out. At his current level, he immediately deciphered the egg's operating principles.

"Come, Majin Buu. Let me see just how strong I am now!" Shin raised his hand, gathered a ball of energy at his fingertips, and injected it into Majin Buu's egg.

A massive amount of energy poured into Majin Buu's egg, instantly awakening the Majin Buu sleeping within!

Creak~

The enormous egg split open down the middle, and large amounts of pink gas poured out...

Shin watched the pink gas emerging from the egg. He knew that this gas was Majin Buu.

The pink clouds gathered in the air, slowly merging together into a large pink fat man—Majin Buu!

Shin looked Majin Buu up and down, sensing the level of his life force. The corners of his mouth curled up, and all his fear of Majin Buu vanished completely.

"Weak! Far too weak! Majin Buu, you're pitifully weak right now!" Shin muttered.

Although Shin had not spoken loudly, Majin Buu in the air still heard him.

His face darkened as he coldly stared down at Shin. Grinning, he said, "Did you just say... I'm weak?"

Shin grinned without replying. He merely raised a hand and beckoned Majin Buu over.

Seeing that provocative gesture, Majin Buu became so furious that white steam burst from his entire body. His formerly simple-minded face twisted viciously as he said coldly, "I'm going to turn you into chocolate and eat you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the antenna atop Majin Buu's head glowed pink, and a ray shot toward Shin at tremendous speed.

Shin neither dodged nor avoided it, allowing the ray to strike him. But when it tried to turn him into chocolate, the vast divine power of "Creation" within Shin, like a primordial beast provoked by a challenge, automatically retaliated!

Whoosh~

Majin Buu's Transfiguration Beam failed, and the divine power of "Creation" within Shin automatically sent it back along the path of attack!

Majin Buu stared blankly at the reflected Transfiguration Beam.

Buzz~

The Transfiguration Beam rebounded onto Majin Buu and turned him into a life-sized piece of chocolate.

Bang~

The enormous piece of chocolate fell from the air and shattered into pieces.

After a while, white smoke rose from the chocolate Majin Buu had become. He dispelled the magic himself and returned to his original form.

Majin Buu's shattered body automatically restored itself. He waved his arms and legs furiously, white steam pouring from his body as he glared at Shin with a vicious expression.

"See? I told you that you're pitifully weak right now. Even I'm surprised that I've become this strong," Shin said with feeling.

"Yah yah yah!!"

Majin Buu shrieked wildly. The little runt before him kept provoking him, making him incomparably furious! He had to kill this little runt!

"Yah!!"

Majin Buu suddenly charged forward!

At the sight of this,

Shin wore an expression that said, You really leave me no choice, then began "playing" with Majin Buu.

Majin Buu continuously swung his fists and kicks, occasionally spitting ki blasts from his mouth in an attempt to catch Shin off guard. Unfortunately, every movement Majin Buu made appeared to Shin as though in slow motion and posed no threat at all.

After playing with Majin Buu for quite a while, Shin gradually grew bored. The feeling of completely overwhelming someone in raw power was indeed satisfying, but it also became dull very quickly.

"I'm done playing."

Shin raised his hand and activated his telekinesis. Majin Buu, who had looked so fierce moments ago, immediately turned horrified... He could not move!

Shin slowly clenched his raised hand into a fist, and Majin Buu instantly screamed. His body was continuously compressed by a mysterious force until he became a pink ball of flesh.

"Forget everything that just happened and go back into the egg." With a thought, Shin's divine senses entered Majin Buu's brain and erased all memories related to him. Then he stuffed Majin Buu back into the egg and sealed him away once more.

"My strength should be above Super Saiyan 3 now, but I wonder whether it's reached the level of Super Saiyan 4?" Shin quietly assessed his own power.

Although he had fought Majin Buu, the entire battle had practically been a one-sided stomp. Shin had not found a precise measure for his strength, but one thing was certain: he was far stronger than Super Saiyan 3.

"It's only been one year. The system said I could surpass Beerus within ten years. It seems that wasn't a joke." Shin smiled, feeling thoroughly at ease.

"Should I go a little further into the future?" Shin lowered his head in thought, then shook it.

"No. If I go any further, Beerus will awaken. With my current strength, I'd probably be killed instantly if I ran into him. Better not go."

When someone's stronger than me, sigh, I won't fight them!

I'm just here to have fun!

"Let's go back."

Shin raised his hand and activated the Time Ring. Time began to reverse...

Age 762.

The point in time before Shin had left.

The moment Shin appeared, he sensed two rapidly moving objects.

Shin looked over and saw two white, pill-shaped spaceships flying toward Earth.

"Vegeta and Nappa."

Shin's gaze penetrated the spaceships, and he saw the two Saiyans sleeping inside.

"Should I give Earth a hand?" Shin pondered.

"Forget it. This battle on Earth is crucial to Vegeta's change of heart. He'll still be needed for the later Tournament of Power, so let nature take its course." After making his decision, Shin teleported back to the Supreme Kai Realm.

Supreme Kai Realm.

Shin felt refreshed and invigorated. The mountains that had once weighed upon him had been pushed aside one by one!

Now only Beerus remained... Oh, and Frieza, provided that guy's talent setting in Super was actually real.

Thinking of Frieza, Shin's eyes flickered as he considered whether he should kill him now, while Frieza was still weak.

"Forget it, let nature take its course. Besides, I have a system now. Why should I fear a native? If you've got the guts, make Frieza's stats surpass the Grand Priest's!"

Shin had not forgotten what the system once said: as long as his potential was unleashed to 71%, his stats would surpass the Grand Priest's.

"I really hope time passes faster. My strength is still improving too slowly." Though he said that, the smile on Shin's face never faded.

Time flowed onward like a rushing river.

In the blink of an eye, twelve years passed.

The Dragon Ball world had successively gone through the Saiyan Saga, the Frieza Saga, and the Android and Cell Saga, and had now entered the Buu Saga.

Throughout that time, Shin had kept watching Earth, yet he had never interfered with anything that happened there, allowing everything to develop naturally.

Until today.

Kibito came to Shin in a panic and reported, "Lord Supreme Kai, I've received reliable information. The wizard Bibidi, who created Majin Buu, had a son. Bibidi's son is now attempting to break Majin Buu's seal!"

Shin glanced at Kibito and said calmly, "Don't panic. Let him do as he wishes. Just let nature take its course."

Kibito was dumbfounded!

Had he not made himself clear just now?

Someone was trying to break Majin Buu's seal, hey!
