Chapter 388 - Chapter 388: Are You Here to See the Time King? (DC)

When his name was called, Broly's eyes narrowed.

In an instant, he appeared directly in front of Zamasu.

Just moments ago, he had been preparing to kill Vegeta, only to be dragged away by Shin and forced into the role of a bodyguard at the Sacred World of the Kai.

Still...

Broly had lived in both the Supreme Kai Realm and the Destroyer God's Realm before. He understood very well how important a Supreme Kai was.

So for now, he could only put the matter of Vegeta aside.

BOOM!

Broly instantly entered his Legendary Super Saiyan state.

His power surged explosively, reaching the early Third Tier of the God Realm!

"This guy...!!!"

Primo's eyelids twitched violently.

At last, he understood why he had instinctively feared this man.

This person could increase his power just like Gran!

The scenes from the great battle of the Candidate Gods of Destruction five years ago flashed through Primo's mind.

He couldn't help but suspect that the Third Tier wasn't Broly's limit at all.

"Supreme Kais, we mean no harm. Please, let's all calm down!"

Realizing the situation was spiraling out of control, Primo hurriedly stepped in front of Zamasu.

His mission on this trip was to protect Zamasu.

He couldn't allow him to die here.

Standing face-to-face, Primo and Broly confronted each other directly.

Crimson-red and grass-green auras erupted across the open plain.

The two energies twisted together, colliding endlessly.

Every clash of their auras caused the planet itself to crumble and collapse.

"This is bad! Broly's aura is weaker than Primo's!"

Shin had already retreated into outer space.

His face turned pale with alarm.

"Hmph. Don't tell me you think this is Broly's limit."

After arriving beside him, the Old Supreme Kai snorted.

"This is merely the starting point of his Ultimate Berserk state. As long as someone keeps pushing him, and his body can endure it, his power will continue rising without end. Just watch."

And sure enough, exactly as the Old Supreme Kai said—

The two hadn't even begun fighting yet.

But under the pressure of Primo's Fifth-Tier God Realm power, the madness in Broly's eyes grew stronger and stronger...

And so did his strength.

Middle Third Tier of the God Realm!

Peak Third Tier of the God Realm!

...

BOOM!

His power suddenly broke through into the Fourth Tier of the God Realm!

Under normal circumstances, Broly would have long since lost himself to the berserk rage within him.

But thanks to the wish granted by Super Shenron, he was still able to maintain his sanity.

"Ancestor, look at Broly! He's incredible!"

Shin stared excitedly from outer space.

The Old Supreme Kai lifted his chin proudly.

"Hmph. I told you to keep watching. Now do you understand how amazing Broly is?"

Back on the planet.

"This monster!"

Feeling Broly's power continue to rise without end, Primo felt his scalp go numb.

Given enough time, he suspected Broly might actually surpass him!

"Zamasu, apologize right now! Do you want to die?!"

Primo turned around and shouted.

As their auras continued to collide, the planet's destruction accelerated.

Finally, it exploded into a blazing fireball and vanished completely.

Floating in the cosmic void, Zamasu was deeply shaken.

Why were these filthy humans able to become this powerful?!

"I... I'm sorry!"

His face filled with panic, as if he had only just snapped out of a daze.

Bowing at a perfect ninety degrees toward the Old Supreme Kai and Shin, he said:

"Supreme Kais, I was disrespectful. Please forgive me!"

His voice carried across the stars.

"So he gave up just like that?"

Shin wasn't quite sure what to do.

He turned toward his ancestor for guidance.

"Broly."

Seeing Zamasu apologize, the Old Supreme Kai called out.

Broly immediately withdrew his power and returned to the Old Supreme Kai's side.

"Phew..."

Only then did Primo let out a long breath.

During the aura clash, he had held the upper hand the entire time.

But Broly's endlessly increasing power had placed immense pressure on him.

And this was still Universe Seven.

If Beerus or Lord Gran were drawn here...

The two of them would be dead for sure.

"Kid, don't think I didn't notice the killing intent in your eyes!"

The Old Supreme Kai brought Shin and Broly before Zamasu and snorted coldly.

"One look at you and it's obvious you're not a righteous person. I honestly don't know how that old fool Gowasu chose someone like you as a Candidate Supreme Kai."

Not righteous?

Primo's eyes widened.

He never would have imagined that another Supreme Kai would evaluate Zamasu in such a way.

Zamasu remained bowed.

His expression was full of remorse.

But in reality, he wanted nothing more than to kill both Supreme Kais immediately.

"Supreme Kais, my cultivation is still lacking. I sincerely apologize."

Zamasu pretended to be ashamed.

At the end of the day, he had simply grown careless.

He had thought that once he left Universe Ten, he could relax his guard.

Who could have guessed that this old man possessed such terrifying insight?

"Tch."

The Old Supreme Kai looked utterly disdainful.

From the moment he first saw this fellow, he had sensed something indescribably wrong about him.

Now he finally understood.

This guy was most likely acting the entire time.

"Get lost. Universe Seven doesn't welcome you."

The Old Supreme Kai issued a direct order to leave.

"Supreme Kais, I understand that you don't wish to share Universe Seven's methods of improving its mortal level. But could you at least allow me to meet Lord Gran once?"

Zamasu still refused to give up.

"Get lost!"

The Old Supreme Kai's voice turned even colder.

"If you don't leave now, you'll stay here forever."

The declaration was incredibly domineering.

Anyone hearing it would think he was some supreme martial arts master.

In reality, the Old Supreme Kai was extremely weak.

But he possessed the ability to summon the strongest warriors in Universe Seven at any moment.

That, too, was a kind of strength.

Understanding this clearly, both Zamasu and Primo dared not linger any longer.

They boarded the Cube of Universe Travel and quickly departed from Universe Seven.

Silence once again returned to the starry void.

"Ancestor, they blew up one of our planets. Why did we let them go?"

Shin asked angrily.

"What do you know?"

Turning around, the Old Supreme Kai smacked Shin on the head.

"Ouch!"

Shin clutched his head and cried out in pain.

"They aren't ordinary people. They're Universe Ten's Candidate God of Destruction and Candidate Supreme Kai. If we killed them, Gowasu and Rumsshi would definitely come looking for trouble."

With his hands behind his back, the Old Supreme Kai gazed into the cosmos.

"We have Lord Beerus and Gran backing us, so we aren't afraid of them. But if they ran to the Omni-King's Palace to complain, things would become troublesome."

After all, the pair had not actually done anything upon arriving in Universe Seven.

If Universe Seven killed them outright and the matter reached the Omni-King, they would be the ones in the wrong.

"But letting him go still doesn't sit right with me."

Ever since learning of Beerus and Gran's true strength, Shin had become unwilling to tolerate even the slightest grievance.

With such powerful backers, wouldn't it be foolish to still suffer losses?

"Don't worry. Universe Ten is going to face enormous trouble in the future. Just wait and see."

"Ancestor... are you talking about..."

Shin's mouth fell open.

"That's right. That guy."

The Old Supreme Kai stared at the spot where Zamasu had disappeared.

His voice turned icy.

"One look at that Zamasu fellow and it's obvious he's up to no good. Sooner or later, he's going to cause a massive disaster. Just wait and enjoy the show."

"Ancestor, but he's a Candidate Supreme Kai. If he causes trouble, couldn't it threaten the entire Omni-King Universe? Shouldn't we warn Universe Ten?"

"Threaten the entire Omni-King Universe? You're giving him far too much credit."

The Old Supreme Kai sneered.

"And as for warning Universe Ten—do you really think they'll believe us just because we say he's a corrupt Candidate Supreme Kai?"

"..."

"Stop worrying about other universes. Universe Six and Universe Seven are already taking off. As long as we avoid unnecessary trouble, that's enough. We only need to take care of our own territory."

"Understood!"

With that, the Old Supreme Kai, Shin, and Broly departed.

Before leaving, however, the Old Supreme Kai contacted Whis and asked him to restore the planet that had just been destroyed.

Meanwhile...

Having barely escaped Universe Seven, Primo was still breathing heavily.

"We almost died back there!"

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he looked toward Zamasu.

Zamasu wore a remorseful expression, as though he still hadn't recovered from the Old Supreme Kai's harsh scolding.

He doesn't look like someone with evil intentions at all...

Primo muttered inwardly.

Then he said:

"Mr. Zamasu, I'm sorry. If my reaction hadn't been so obvious, they never would have discovered our true purpose."

"It wasn't your fault. Even if they hadn't discovered our intentions, they probably still wouldn't have allowed us to remain in Universe Seven."

Though he spoke kindly, Zamasu secretly wanted nothing more than to cut Primo into ten thousand pieces.

Hearing that, Primo felt even more ashamed.

"What should we do now? Return directly to Universe Ten?"

"No."

Zamasu shook his head.

"We still haven't completed our investigation of Universe Seven. We can't go back yet."

At the moment, he was worried that the old man from Universe Seven might inform Gowasu about what had happened.

He couldn't return empty-handed.

He needed some tangible results first.

Only then would he have grounds to defend himself.

As for meeting Gran...

That would have to wait.

"Then where are we going now?"

"Universe Six."

A sharp light flashed in Zamasu's eyes.

"From what we heard on that planet, Universe Seven is preparing for a tournament against another universe. If my guess is correct, that other universe can only be Universe Six."

"That's right! You're brilliant, Zamasu!"

Primo immediately became excited.

Universes Six and Seven were twin universes.

Their Gods of Destruction were twin brothers.

If Universe Seven was holding an inter-universal tournament, there was no logical reason for the opponent to be anyone other than Universe Six.

"Let's go."

Under Zamasu's control, the Cube of Universe Travel quickly headed toward Universe Six.

Time passed swiftly.

A month went by after Zamasu's escape from Universe Seven.

During this period, Broly had wanted to return to Earth and finish off Vegeta.

But he figured Vegeta wouldn't be foolish enough to stay where he was.

In the end, he asked the Supreme Kai to send him back to Galactic Patrol Headquarters.

Little did he know...

Vegeta had actually remained on Earth, waiting for Son Goku to return.

Elsewhere.

A place that belonged to no timeline.

The surroundings were completely silver-white, filled with gigantic swirling vortices.

At the center of the largest vortex sat a lone figure.

"Reverse!"

"Accelerate!"

"Pause!"

...

That figure was none other than Gran, who had been absent for a long time.

He was continuously training his Space-Time Power, one of the goals he had set for himself from the beginning.

Compared to half a year ago, the Space-Time Power within him had grown tremendously.

Many techniques he previously couldn't perform were now within his grasp.

Unfortunately...

His Space-Time Power had still not reached the level of a Rule.

After completing another round of training, Gran sat down, breathing heavily.

"Space-Time Laws are... way too difficult to master!"

Seated at the center of the vortex, his mood wasn't particularly good.

Though that was understandable.

Back then, it had taken him several years to raise Destruction Power to the level of a Rule.

As for Space-Time Power, he hadn't even trained it for a full two years yet.

"The Space-Time Law is much harder than the Law of Destruction. It'll still take quite a while."

After resting for a bit, Gran stood up once more.

Using his Time Ring, he opened a tunnel.

Then he stepped inside.

Silver light flowed endlessly through the temporal passage.

Gran kept frowning, seemingly lost in thought.

After some time—

He reached the end of the tunnel and stepped out.

This wasn't his original timeline.

Instead, it was the End of Time.

Gran had arrived once again in the Time Nest.

"Huh?"

Chronoa was leisurely swinging on a swing in the garden when she suddenly spotted Gran appearing overhead.

"Gran? What brings you here?"

Descending from the sky, Gran didn't answer immediately.

Instead, he circled around Chronoa once.

She was still wearing her Supreme Kai-style outfit.

Her pointed little ears and soft pink skin gave her an unexpectedly adorable appearance.

"Don't you have to maintain the order of time? Why do you seem so free all the time?"

Gran stared at the little Chronoa sitting on the swing.

"I swear, you're unbelievable."

Chronoa rolled her eyes.

"Time doesn't run into problems every second of every day!"

"And even if something does happen, there are still the Time Patrollers."

"Fair enough."

Gran chuckled.

Back then, Chronoa had already explained many things about time to him.

He knew very well that temporal disturbances weren't constant.

He simply enjoyed teasing the little Time Supreme Kai.

"Is the Time King here?"

Gran sat down on the swing beside her.

Chronoa froze.

"Wait... you're here to see the Time King?"
