The Lonely Prince

"It's over, Vegeta is furious!"

Krillin scratched his newly grown black hair, and Vegeta's exasperated look made him laugh out loud.

Piccolo shook his head and explained, "There's nothing we can do. Just like Son Wuling said, Vegeta's foundation wasn't solid, so it needs to be strengthened from a young age. In the beginning, he could rely on his Saiyan bloodline to support him and train to become stronger, but it's different after that. Now, let alone Son Wuling and Goku, even Rose has caught up with him."

After venting his frustration, Vegeta gradually calmed down. Looking at the fishing rod that had been restored in his hand, he took a deep breath. He had just been flustered because of Kakarot.

"Great! I did it! I caught it! Mom, Mr. Whis, Bulla, everyone look! I caught it too!"

The girl's joyful cheers echoed throughout the venue. Rose waved her hand, attaching her Ultra Instinct to the fishing rod. A fish was struggling and thrashing about. As Rose's aura dissipated, the fishhook that had been transformed also disappeared.

"Wow, Rose is amazing!"

Bulla's eyes sparkled with admiration; even Beerus, the God of Destruction, and her father Vegeta couldn't catch her, which shows how difficult it was.

"No way! Rose was caught too!"

Vegeta's eyes widened in disbelief. Now Rose had surpassed him, completely catching up with Son Gohan, Ryan, Son Goku, and standing on the same level.

Piccolo rubbed his forehead and said to Kusu, "Now Rose has surpassed him too."

Whis didn't hesitate to add insult to injury, laughing, "My next one might be Lord Beerus, or some Saiyan prince, hehehe... Rose, not bad, you can try the second step of training next."

Whis's words caused Vegeta and Beerus to exchange a glance, clenching their fists in resentment. The fishing rod in their hands was crushed again, as if salt had been rubbed into their wounds!

"No!"

As soon as Whis finished speaking, Number 18 immediately stepped forward, hugging Rose in her arms. At her feet, Son Goku, Son Gohan, Ryan were all exhausted, having been unconscious for an unknown period of time. Even after waking up, it would take them a day or two to fully recover. She couldn't bear to see her fourteen-year-old daughter suffer along with Son Goku and the others.

Rose struggled to jump down from Number 18's arms. At this moment, Rose looked very much like Number 18 before, with beautiful long golden hair and blue eyes, but her personality and other aspects were exactly the same as Son Wuling's.

"Mom, don't worry, I'll be fine. Miss Kusu's training is really helpful, take a look!"

The power of Ultra Instinct surged within Rose, and her white hair stood up Super Saiyan 1.

Her aura gradually dissipated and stabilized, and the power of Ultra Instinct slowly flowed into her body. If her previous state was the sign of Ultra Instinct Sign, then Rose's current state could be described as the Ultra Instinct Contained, or the Ultra Instinct Full Power, where she had completely controlled the power of Ultra Instinct.

"Mom, look, this is what I'm doing now. Miss Kusu's training is very effective. I can now fully control the power of Ultra Instinct. Please let me train with you! I'm not afraid."

The Ultra Instinct power emanating from Rose dissipated, and she looked at Number 18 with a pleading expression.

"I..."

Number 18 was filled with heartache and reluctance. As a mother, how could she bear to watch her daughter suffer?

"Alright, alright, Rose, your father and I will take care of you then. Go ahead."

Number 18 turned her head away. If it weren't for Kusu's protective shield during the Spatial Turbulence, she would have rushed through directly. Now she didn't dare to look at it at all, afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear it and would stop Rose from cultivating.

"Yes, Mr. Whis, please take me downstairs!"

Rose lowered her head and glanced at the Disorder waves below. Son Goku, Ryan, and Son Gohan were occasionally letting out shrill screams, which made her feel a chill run down her spine.

Whis shook his head, spread his hands, and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, Rose, my power can no longer seal your power. Even if you were to fight me now, with your current level of Ultra Instinct, even I might not be your match. I would need Kusu to completely seal your power."

Whis felt a sense of helplessness. He, the Angel of Universe 7, had been surpassed by Son Wuling, Son Gohan, Son Goku, and now Rose, one after another.

Whis contacted Kusu and explained the current situation: Rose had already passed the first level of cultivation, and she needed to seal Rose's power.

"Well..."

At that moment, Beerus, who was fishing, suddenly stood up, casually tossing his fishing rod aside, and sighed with helplessness and resignation.

"Lord Beerus, you!"

Vegeta looked up, his face filled with confusion and doubt. Was even Beerus, the God of Destruction, going to give up?

"Vegeta, I give up. I admit it. I can't do it. Even if I complete the first and second training sessions, I still can't complete the final one."

"What?"

Beerus's words startled Vegeta; he couldn't believe that Beerus, the God of Destruction, would say such a thing.

Beerus looked at Vegeta and said, "I can't do it anymore. That kind of pinnacle level in the world... Vegeta, try your best."

Beerus's abandonment dealt a heavy blow to Vegeta's heart. Even the legendary God of Destruction had given up. What should he do? For the first time, the thought of retreating crossed his mind. Should he also give up like Piccolo and Broly?

Vegeta looked down at Son Goku, who was tumbling in the waves, and quickly shook his head, trying to clear his mind. He clenched his fists. "No... I can't lose to Kakarot. I can't give up. Calm down, I need to calm down. Don't panic!"

Now, he was the only one still in the first stage of training. Vegeta's hand holding the fishing rod was trembling. He was all alone and felt lonely and desolate.

"Vegeta!"

Bulma looked at that lonely figure and wanted to comfort him, but she didn't know how.

Beerus sat on a recliner, feeling completely relaxed after giving up. He had let go of everything and was enjoying delicious snacks and tea, returning to his former lazy yet dignified God of Destruction.

"Lord Beerus, please use it!"

The voice sounded very pleasant, causing Beerus to glance at it subconsciously. His eyes lit up, and a chill ran down his spine. His tiger-like body trembled—no, it should be said that his cat-like body trembled—as if he had been electrocuted.

"Oh, Lord Beerus, what did I do wrong?"

Cheelai was startled. She had been taken in by Son Wuling and was living on Mount Paozu. In addition to doing maid work such as sweeping, she also worked as an assistant to Pilaf.

"Is it... very cute?"

Beerus's words silenced the entire room. Rose, Bulma, Vegeta, and everyone else seemed to have heard something unbelievable.
