Chapter 26: Super Saiyan 3
After unexpectedly receiving an offer to become the head chef on the Planet of the God of Destruction, Tachibana Kyūjō officially resigned from his job as a member of the Galactic Patrol.
In a hurry, he bid farewell to Merus, and together with the God of Destruction Beerus, the angel Whis, and dozens of his crew members, he boarded the Golden Flash and set course for the Planet of the God of Destruction.
Those crew members still had important roles to play. At the very least, whenever he cooked, they could help him here and there.
Besides, they were his loyal crew who had stayed with him for years. Unless they chose to leave on their own, Tachibana Kyūjō would never force them off his ship.
The Planet of the God of Destruction was located at one end of Universe Seven. However, due to Beerus' "unique" work habits, not a single planet remained within millions of light-years of the area.
(In truth, for millions of years, Beerus had destroyed every planet nearby simply because he was too lazy to travel far.)
Thanks to the specific coordinates provided by Whis, the Golden Flash reached their destination in a single second!
Seeing how quickly the ship brought them home, both Whis and Beerus were stunned.
Until now, their attention had always been fixated on the ship's kitchen. But its ability to pierce through space-time wormholes and arrive at any location instantly left the two speechless.
It should be noted that even Whis—who had mastered Instant Teleportation—would still need time to cross the vast emptiness of the galaxy that Beerus had destroyed.
But this ship… in just the blink of an eye, it carried them directly to the Planet of the God of Destruction?
With curiosity sparkling in his eyes, Whis looked at Tachibana Kyūjō and asked, "How is this ship able to move that fast? It brought us here instantly!"
You're asking me? How would I know? Kyūjō grumbled inwardly. Outwardly, he put on a serious face and pretended to think.
After a moment, he answered with flawless nonsense, "Maybe it has something to do with quantum mechanics… I don't really understand it either. After all, the power of the Dragon God tends to defy logic."
Beerus immediately realized he was just making things up. With a dismissive snort, he said, "A dragon from Planet Namek like that… dares to be called a Dragon God?"
Tachibana Kyūjō simply raised his small hands with an innocent expression, offering no protest. After all, this was the God of Destruction speaking—what could he possibly say?
Still, deep inside, he truly thought Porunga was pretty impressive…

Upon arriving on the Planet of the God of Destruction, Whis immediately instructed the crew to dock the Golden Flash—the moving restaurant—right beside Beerus' palace. That way, they could eat whenever they pleased.
Not long after, even though he had just finished eating, Beerus asked for food again.
Tachibana Kyūjō scratched his head helplessly and reminded him, "Lord Beerus, aren't you forgetting something?"
"What did I forget?" Beerus asked with a blank expression.
Whis cleared his throat softly before saying, "Lord Beerus, you previously promised Mr. Kyūjō that if he could satisfy you with his cooking, you would be willing to fight him."
But instead of acknowledging it, Beerus exploded in anger.
"Whis! Shut your mouth!"
"You dare bring that up? Out of all the food earlier, how much do you think I actually got to eat?"
"I don't care! What matters is: I'm hungry now. If I'm not full, how would I have enough strength for a fight?!"
With that, Beerus crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking petulant.
A few veins visibly throbbed on Tachibana Kyūjō's forehead. Over a hundred dishes, each in large portions… Even if he ate slower than Whis, there was no way he wasn't full.
Whis smiled gently at Kyūjō. "Mr. Kyūjō, how about preparing another meal? Once Lord Beerus is satisfied, he will surely keep his promise. If possible, please prepare a bit more food… I believe I'm starting to feel hungry as well."
Tachibana Kyūjō: …
Fine. Fine. You two really never stop, do you?
Without saying another word, he turned around and stepped into the Golden Flash's kitchen.
From the storage room, he brought out more than ten whole cows—already slaughtered and cleaned.
Each weighed around one to two tons. They were a species of wild cattle from Earth with exceptionally high-quality meat.
Years ago, back when he was still on Earth, he had tasted them by accident, and ever since, he kept a huge stock in his storage.
If they claimed they still weren't full, then this time he would serve a full roasted whole-beef feast!
A sharp knife flashed as he swiftly carved patterns of cuts across each surface of the meat. Then, he rubbed his secret blend of seasonings across every section.
There were Szechuan-spicy, honey mustard, five-spice, tangy-hot, garlic butter, sweet-spicy… more than ten flavors—so many that even the author would get hungry just writing them down.
Next, the cows were placed into the roasting ovens. Thankfully, these ovens were high-tech alien models.
In just one hour, they could perfectly roast an entire cow. A normal oven would need an entire day and still fail to cook it evenly to the center.
During the roasting process, the delicious aroma spread through the air, nearly making Beerus and Whis drool uncontrollably…
After a long wait, the roasted beef feast was finally complete. Tachibana Kyūjō instructed the crew to carry all the differently seasoned whole-roast beef onto the main dining platform.
Then, everyone began devouring the massive feast.
Beerus finished three entire cows before stopping.
Not because he was full—but because the rest had already been eaten by everyone else.
Meanwhile, Whis was even more impressive. For each flavor, he ate at least a third of it.
The remaining beef was divided among Tachibana Kyūjō and his crew.
Once the feast ended, Beerus called Tachibana Kyūjō outside with great satisfaction.
---
Beyond the Planet of the God of Destruction, in the emptiness of a vast, hollow galaxy.
Tachibana Kyūjō, Beerus, and Whis stood silently amidst the endless void of stars.
Beerus folded his hands behind his back, gazing calmly at Kyūjō. "Show me your full power."
Tachibana Kyūjō nodded, then quietly released the power that had been sealed within him this whole time…
A violent surge of energy erupted from his body, crackling with yellow lightning.
His black hair instantly turned into glimmering golden strands. Those golden locks continued growing longer… until they reached his waist. His eyebrows vanished completely.
In their place, Tachibana Kyūjō now radiated an aura strong enough to annihilate galaxies with a single sweep of his hand.
This was pure strength at 63.2 billion.
Over 600 times stronger than Frieza in his full form!
