When Trunks' voice choked with sobs, Vegeta shouted, "Trunks! Saiyans don't cry. Stand up straight! Whatever it is, His Majesty will help!"
"Yes... yes!" Although Trunks nodded, his tears continued to fall.
Vegeta couldn't help but frown and speak for him, "Your Majesty, this world is done for. We've searched several planets, and not only have we not found any living beings, but we haven't even seen a single Android. That ba*tard Zamasu has killed almost all intelligent lifeforms and Androids!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen couldn't help but sigh.
That ba*tard Zamasu acted so quickly!
In that case, isn't Trunks the last survivor in this universe?
"Ding!"
Suddenly, a system prompt rang in Lin Chen's mind.
"Detecting the destruction of World 16's Universe 7, triggering the strongest choices."
"Choice one: Find the lost Super Dragon Balls for Trunks and restore this world. Reward: 20% increase in the effectiveness of Super Kaio-ken!"
"Choice two: Use the time machine to send Trunks back to the time before the Supreme Kai of World 16's Universe 7 was killed. Reward: Majin Buu's Immortality."
"Choice three: Create a new set of Dragon Balls for Trunks, allowing him to choose how to save this world. Reward: Clues for above Super Saiyan 4."
After confirming the system's prompt in his mind, Lin Chen couldn't help but be stunned.
Trunks' tragedy, as his master, he naturally wouldn't ignore. However, he didn't expect that there would be three ways to resolve this situation.
In the original work, faced with the destroyed Trunks' world, Goku and the others chose choice two, sending Trunks back to an earlier time to prevent the death of the Supreme Kai and the God of Destruction, allowing them to save the world in the future.
This method was simple, but it had many drawbacks, the biggest being the creation of an additional parallel universe.
World 16 was the main world, and adding another parallel universe meant an increase in the main world. This could potentially lead to the emergence of more mini-worlds of 1 main world.
The consequences of this choice were not small.
Moreover, Lin Chen saw this choice as somewhat escaping from reality.
Although for Trunks, he could once again live with his friends, family, and loved ones.
But in his original world, those people were truly dead, with no possibility of resurrection.
Escaping from reality was not the Saiyan way of doing things.
Therefore, Lin Chen first ruled out choice two.
Next was choice one. Seeing this choice, Lin Chen immediately understood that they might have misunderstood Zamasu before.
It was likely that Zamasu didn't actually kill Super Shenron.
After giving it some thought, it made sense. Super Shenron was created by Dragon God Zalama, and no matter how powerful Zamasu was, he couldn't possibly have surpassed Dragon God Zalama. So, how could he have killed Super Shenron?
So, Zamasu's actions at that time probably just temporarily sent the divine dragon back into the Dragon Balls. After one year, the Dragon Balls would automatically restore themselves.
This kind of thing has happened in the original work as well.
For instance, when Great Demon King Piccolo killed the divine dragon, even though Piccolo thought he had killed the divine dragon, it was later proven that the divine dragon hadn't died; only its model was destroyed.
Great Demon King Piccolo couldn't even defeat Kami, so naturally, he couldn't kill Kami's divine dragon.
As for the Dragon Balls turning into stones at that time... Well, it's obvious. After fulfilling a wish, don't they turn into stones?
So, in this world, the Super Dragon Balls might still exist.
As for creating a set of Dragon Balls for Trunks, it's quite simple. With the right materials, he can easily make a new set for Trunks.
Now, it all depends on the rewards for each choice.
"System, I'll choose three!"
"Ding, the host has initiated a choice. Please complete the task as soon as possible."
Compared to simply enhancing the effectiveness of Super Kaio-ken, Lin Chen found Choice three's reward more interesting.
Clues for above Super Saiyan 4—could it be referring to transforming into Super Saiyan 5?
Lin Chen had always thought that the transformation into Super Saiyan 4 was useless for him. However, after the battle with Zamasu, he realized that Super Saiyan 4 still had value, especially in terms of energy consumption, where it was far less than Super Saiyan God.
So, if there was an opportunity to further develop the Super Saiyan 4 path, Lin Chen didn't want to miss it.
"Trunks, no need to worry. I'll create a set of Dragon Balls for you. If you want to save the world, you can make a wish to the divine dragon yourself," Lin Chen said.
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Trunks suddenly became excited.
"Dragon Balls? Teacher, is that possible?"
"Of course, don't forget that the Dragon Balls on Planet Vegeta in my world were created by me."
"That's great!"
Trunks was so happy that he almost trembled.
"Teacher, when will you start?"
"Trunks, what's the rush? His Majesty has just defeated Zamasu, and his divine power hasn't fully recovered yet!" Vegeta shouted.
"S-sorry." Trunks realized he was being hasty and quickly apologized.
Shaking his head to indicate he didn't mind, Lin Chen continued, "Vegeta, you guys find a place to rest. I'll prepare for making the Dragon Balls."
"Your Majesty, where are you going? We can help too."
Lin Chen thought for a moment and said, "Creating the Dragon Balls requires a lot of materials, and I also want to visit a certain place."
"Where?"
"Lookout."
Lookout, the most mysterious place on Earth.
When Goku and the others were searching for survivors, they didn't investigate that place.
But according to the aura, there were indeed no living beings there.
However, Lin Chen felt their speculation might not be correct.
Because on Lookout, there was a person who had survived countless disasters in other worlds.
Lin Chen thought that in this world, he might have also evaded Zamasu's attacks in a similar manner.
Not long after, everyone arrived at Lookout.
At this moment, Lookout was already in ruins, with traces of attacks visible everywhere.
Half of the place had disappeared, leaving the other half miraculously suspended in the sky.
Trunks stared in amazement at his surroundings.
"So, our world also has a Lookout? I thought this place only existed in Teacher's world."
In Lin Chen's world, Trunks had also visited Lookout for training, so he was familiar with the place.
It's just that Trunks never expected Lookout to exist in his world as well.
