The Supreme Kai Realm was eerily quiet.
Aside from little Broly, the Old Supreme Kai and the others were all trying to guess why the Grand Priest had suddenly summoned every God of Destruction.
Even Whis himself felt puzzled by his father's actions this time.
"Lord Beerus, you should depart as soon as possible," the Old Supreme Kai finally broke the silence. "If you delay, it won't be good."
Whis nodded. "Lord Beerus, once we arrive at the World of Void, everything will become clear. We should leave immediately."
"..."
What else could be done? With the Grand Priest's order issued, who would dare disobey?
Beerus had no choice but to prepare to depart.
However, just before leaving, he suddenly reached out and lifted little Broly into the air.
"Lord Beerus, what are you doing?" Broly kicked his short legs in midair, trying to break free, but his strength was nowhere near enough.
Holding him up in front of his face, Beerus said calmly,
"We won't be in the Supreme Kai Realm. A ticking time bomb like you can't be left here."
Broly understood his own situation and asked in confusion,
"Then… where am I supposed to go?"
The Old Supreme Kai and the others all turned their eyes toward Beerus.
Beerus's pupils shifted slightly. A mischievous idea suddenly occurred to him. With a playful grin, he said,
"How about I take you to the World of Void?"
The World of Void?!
Everyone's eyes widened.
The Grand Priest had summoned all Gods of Destruction to the World of Void—but he never said others could be brought along!
Was Beerus really not afraid of being blamed?
More importantly, every God of Destruction would be there. If Beerus brought Broly along, Broly would be exposed to all of them—
Suddenly!
A flash of insight crossed the Old Supreme Kai's mind. He instantly understood Beerus's plan.
"You're planning to deceive the Gods of Destruction from the other universes?" he blurted out.
Whis covered his mouth, chuckling softly. He had realized it too.
"Deceive? No!"
Beerus bared his teeth in a grin.
"I'm going to mess with those guys!"
His idea was simple: have little Broly pretend to be Universe Seven's candidate God of Destruction, then parade him in front of the other Gods of Destruction.
With Broly's current strength, he would surely attract plenty of ridicule.
What they didn't know—
Universe Seven's true candidate God of Destruction wasn't Broly at all.
When the great battle of candidate Gods of Destruction finally began in the future, the real candidate would appear before everyone in an overwhelmingly invincible!
First suppression, then explosive reversal—
What a spectacular scene that would be!
"This plan is a bit unethical," the Old Supreme Kai said, chuckling, "but I have to admit—it sounds pretty fun."
Just imagining the shocked expressions on the other Gods of Destruction's faces made him want to laugh.
"Hahaha! Old man, you think it's fun too, don't you?" Beerus laughed heartily as he set Broly back on the ground.
"Fun is fun, but can Broly really fool them?" the Old Supreme Kai asked.
"Who says he can't?"
Beerus looked at Broly seriously.
"With Broly's talent and physique, in any universe, he'd absolutely qualify as a candidate God of Destruction-level genius!"
Beerus wasn't exaggerating.
Who was Broly?
He was the true embodiment of individual combat supremacy!
In the anime, Son Goku, Vegeta, Frieza—who among them hadn't been beaten by him?
One-on-one or group battles, Broly had never feared anyone. Only when Goku and Vegeta fused did he finally suffer a heavy loss.
"I'll just say Broly is my newly chosen candidate God of Destruction," Beerus said, hands on his hips as he laughed.
"They won't possibly doubt it!"
Thinking about Broly's monstrous talent and physique, the Old Supreme Kai laughed along with him.
At this moment, the two of them looked like complete idiots.
After laughing for a while, Beerus suddenly called out,
"Whis!"
Whis said nothing. Since his God of Destruction wanted to have some fun, he'd simply go along with it.
As for angering the other Gods of Destruction—Whis didn't care in the slightest. Given Beerus's reputation, who didn't dislike him already?
Whis raised his staff.
Buzz
A radiant light enveloped little Broly, and in the next instant, he was dressed in a set of ancient Egyptian–style garments.
"Huh? I'm wearing the same clothes as Brother Gran!"
Broly looked down at himself, eyes shining with excitement.
"Whis, let's go!" Beerus shouted, grabbing the bouncing Broly.
Whoosh!
A seven-colored stream of light shot into the sky, and the three figures vanished instantly.
Only the Old Supreme Kai and Shin were left behind.
"Ancestor," Shin gently nudged the Old Supreme Kai, who was still laughing.
The Old Supreme Kai wiped his smile away and said irritably,
"What? I was enjoying myself!"
Shin pointed at the sky.
"Lord Beerus already left, so you don't need to keep laughing anymore."
"..."
The Old Supreme Kai shot his junior a glare.
"Get lost!"
Shin immediately shrank his neck and ran off.
Before long, the Old Supreme Kai let out another mischievous chuckle.
...
Meanwhile
Otherworld, Grand Kai's Planet.
This planet was enormous—larger even than Earth—and was home to countless deceased martial artists.
Because of their immense contributions to the mortal world during their lifetimes, they were allowed to retain physical bodies and cultivate here.
Beside a lake on Grand Kai's Planet, a lone figure was fishing, while many deceased martial artists gathered around to watch.
"Who is this guy? Does he not know these fish are raised personally by the Grand Kai?"
"He's got some nerve! If the Grand Kai finds out someone's stealing his fish, he's definitely finished!"
"Finished? Everyone here is already dead. If the Grand Kai finds out, he'll make his soul scatter completely!"
"Hahaha, I'd love to see what it looks like when he dies again!"
...
The surrounding martial artists whispered among themselves.
At that moment, five figures approached from the distance.
Leading them was the Grand Kai himself, followed by the Four Kaiō.
As the five Kai arrived, every "ghost" nearby wore an expression full of anticipation.
That fisherman dared to steal fish raised by the Grand Kai—this time, he was dead for sure!
However
When the five Kai stopped behind the "fisherman," they suddenly bent over and saluted deeply.
"Greetings, Candidate God of Destruction!"
Five voices merged into one, their thunderous sound echoing across the heavens.
"Th—This is impossible!"
"He clearly stole the Grand Kai's fish! Why isn't he being punished?"
"The Grand Kai is actually bowing to him—am I seeing things?!"
"Candidate God of Destruction? What is that? A god even higher than the Grand Kai?!"
Every "ghost" present stared in disbelief.
The murmurs reached the Grand Kai's ears, and cold sweat instantly drenched his back. He raised his head and shouted angrily,
"Silence, all of you!"
Daring to discuss a candidate God of Destruction—were they trying to be erased?!
Even North Kai and the others began trembling slightly.
Had the candidate God of Destruction become angry?
Gran calmly reeled in his fishing rod and turned his gaze toward those who had been whispering about him just moments ago.
