"Piccolo, what are you doing here? And who are those two?"
When Son Goku reached out to point at the two men beside Piccolo, Piccolo hurriedly knocked his hand down, panic written all over his face.
"Goku, mind your manners! These two are no ordinary people!"
"Are they aliens?"
"They look like it to me."
Krillin and Yamcha spoke up from the side.
"Idiots! This is the Supreme Kai! A deity above the King Kais!" Piccolo introduced him with deep respect.
Because his soul had merged with that of Old Kami, Piccolo was helpless before deities like this, instinctively feeling a measure of reverence.
Son Goku and the others, however, were different.
At Piccolo's words, Son Goku tilted his head and asked, "Supreme Kai? So, Supreme Kai, who's stronger-you or the God of Destruction?"
Son Goku knew that Broly, one of the people he and Vegeta were chasing after, had supposedly gone to train with the God of Destruction.
Since this man was called the Supreme Kai, he sounded as though he was on the same level as the God of Destruction. Perhaps he could tell them something about Broly.
What Son Goku probably did not know, however, was that East Supreme Kai Shin, as a young Supreme Kai, had never received the complete legacy of his position. He did not even know that his counterpart, the God of Destruction, existed.
"The God of Destruction? What's that?"
Shin looked at Kibito in bewilderment, and Kibito shook his head, looking just as clueless.
"Huh? You don't know about the God of Destruction? Piccolo, are you sure they aren't frauds?"
Piccolo also knew about the God of Destruction, so he was puzzled to hear that Shin knew nothing about him. Yet there was no mistaking the divine aura he sensed from Shin.
