Chapter Summaries

Mechikabura supplied Zalama with rare materials, including life-force jade taken from Heroes' Star, so Zalama could create Dragon Balls powerful enough to break Mechikabura's seal. Meanwhile, Lin Chen and Jiren investigated the place where Jiren's master Gicchin had been attacked, and Zalama's creation began to split into seven radiant objects.

• Mechikabura ordered his subordinates to deliver the materials gathered across timelines, and Zalama noticed that one of them was a Saiyan holding pure white jade.
• Lin Chen, Lazuli, and Jiren explored Heroes' Star, where Jiren showed them the ruins of Gicchin's dojo and the hill where his master had guarded a life-force jade.
• Jiren told Lin Chen that Gicchin may have absorbed the jade's life force and been attacked because of it, and Lin Chen found moss growing where it had rested.
• Zalama used the materials and his power of miracles to activate the Shenron model, creating a burst of light that split into seven radiant masses of energy.

Mechikabura sent his followers after the unfinished Dark Super Dragon Balls, while Zalama secretly considered finding subordinates of his own. Later, Future Trunks and Mai arrived in Universe 7 through Chronoa’s power, seeking Lin Chen about an urgent matter, but learned he was away on his honeymoon with Lazuli.
