Ignoring Super Shenron and Zuno nearby, Lin Chen searched around but couldn't detect Zamasu's aura.
"Lin Chen-sama, are you looking for Zamasu?" Zuno suddenly asked.
Lin Chen turned around and replied, "Yes, do you know where he went?"
"He... he has already escaped!" Zuno explained.
It turns out that Zuno appeared here because he was forced by Zamasu.
Despite lacking a Dragon Ball radar, Zamasu knew about Zuno, an extremely special existence in the Multiverse. Using force, Zamasu compelled Zuno to predict the coordinates of the Super Dragon Balls for him. Also, fearing that Zuno might inform others, Zamasu had kept him close.
However, according to Zuno, just a moment ago, Zamasu seemed to have successfully summoned the divine dragon, but he seemed to have witnessed something terrifying. So, without waiting for the divine dragon to fully appear, Zamasu rotated the Time Ring on his hand and left this world.
"Time Ring? Right, I forgot about that," Lin Chen sighed.
Although the time reversal he had previously used only affected himself, Lin Chen forgot that Zamasu had a Time Ring in his hands.
Time Ring is not just a tool for traversing timelines; it also has the ability to protect the holder from the influence of the power of time.
Just now, although Zamasu was unable to prevent Lin Chen from reversing time, relying on the Time Ring, Zamasu was able to retain his memories.
So, when everything returned to the starting point, Zamasu immediately knew what had happened.
Discovering Lin Chen's ability to manipulate the power of time shocked Zamasu. He realized that as long as Lin Chen had the Power of Time, the body swap between them was impossible. If Lin Chen reversed time before Super Shenron granted the wish, even Super Shenron couldn't fulfill the wish. Moreover, with time reversal, Lin Chen would also be aware of Zamasu's plan.
Being the mastermind behind Project Zero Mortals and who almost eradicated the gods of Multiverse in the original work, Zamasu's intellect is undoubtedly extraordinary.
Weighing the pros and cons, Zamasu quickly made the wise choice to escape before Lin Chen found him, even abandoning the Super Dragon Balls without hesitation.
It was Zamasu's cunning that allowed him to escape a disaster.
In response to this, Lin Chen was helpless. If the two had been face to face at that moment, perhaps he could have stopped Zamasu. However, now, everything was already too late.
"Lin-Lin Chen-sama, what should I do?" Zuno asked.
Hearing that, Lin Chen waved his hand, signaling him to leave.
This time, Zuno was also the victim of an unexpected calamity. He had become Zamasu's target. If Lin Chen had not arrived, Zamasu would have killed Zuno after his wish was fulfilled.
After seeing Zuno off, Lin Chen turned towards Super Shenron.
It was still waiting for someone to make a wish.
Looking at Super Shenron's majestic body, Lin Chen couldn't help but have lingering fears. The confrontation in his sea of consciousness made him realize the supreme power of Super Shenron.
Compared to Super Shenron, Lin Chen still had a long way to go.
"The one who has gathered the Dragon Balls, speak thy wish quickly, or I'll leave," Super Shenron urged, perhaps having waited too long.
Hearing its urging, Lin Chen initially thought of letting Super Shenron leave like this.
After all, Lin Chen currently had no wishes to make, and understanding the nature of the Power of Miracles, he knew he couldn't ask Super Shenron for help in becoming stronger.
But at this moment, Lin Chen suddenly thought of something.
"Super Shenron, I wish for you to gather all the Zamasu from every timeline and bring them before me!"
"Sorry, casually traveling through time is a serious offense in the multiverse, and I cannot violate the rules of time."
"Fine."
This result was expected by Lin Chen, but he had an alternative wish in mind.
"Can you at least let me know the real-time locations of all Zamasu across worlds?"
Super Shenron responded, "My power can only inform you of the current locations of all Zamasu across worlds."
Lin Chen continued, "Can you mark them with something, making it impossible for them to hide their whereabouts?"
Super Shenron lowered its head, and a loud voice echoed across the sky, "Thy wish is very easy!"
Then, its eyes glowed with a blood-red color, and a strange energy began traversing through time and space, heading to different worlds.
In the next moment, apart from Lin Chen's world and Future Trunks' world, in 34 other main worlds.
Zamasus in varying states suddenly felt a power entering their bodies. Shortly after, a red light, impossible to conceal, lit up on them.
These red lights were exceptionally conspicuous and impossible to cover and hide in any way.
"What's going on? Damn it!"
World 32's Zamasu's eyes widened, staring at the unusual red glow on his body. He had just been about to attack his mentor Gowasu when an abnormal red light erupted from him, causing his plan to fail.
"Zamasu, what were you about to do? Were you planning to kill me?"
Due to the light emanating from Zamasu, Gowasu noticed his abnormal behavior, quickly creating distance and wearing a vigilant expression.
Seeing his plan exposed, Zamasu wore a resentful expression. If it weren't for the light emanating from him, he would have already killed Gowasu a while ago.
"Gowasu! Can't you just die obediently? Why do you have to hinder me?!"
"Zamasu, have you lost your mind?"
"Of course not. Everything I've done is for this world, for justice!"
"Justice?"
"Yes, this world doesn't need humans. I will eradicate all humans!"
Gowasu's gaze hardened.
"You're crazy, Zamasu, you have such dangerous thoughts? Repent quickly, Zamasu, while you still have the chance. Don't force me to act!"
Gowasu was about to make a final attempt to persuade Zamasu when he noticed Zamasu's gaze suddenly fixated behind him.
So, Gowasu instinctively turned to look.
But then, Gowasu found his stomach pierced.
The Zamasu who should have been in front of him had somehow appeared behind him.
"Zamasu?"
Gowasu turned around instinctively, only to discover that there were two Zamasu—one behind him and the other still standing in place.
"This... this..."
"Die! Old man! This is the third time!"
As Gowasu fell, World 32's Zamasu looked in astonishment at the other Zamasu in front of him.
This Zamasu was from World 16, Future Trunks' world and was also the same one that nearly took over Lin Chen's body.
"Who are you?"
"I am you... Long story short, Project Zero Mortals needs modification. Do you seen the red light on us? If we don't modify Project Zero Mortals, someone will soon come to kill us!" Zamasu from World 16 said with a gloomy expression.
