At this moment, besides the three dark dragon balls that Zalama brought back, two more dark dragon balls flew out and complemented the initial three, creating a dazzling display.
A total of five dragon balls formed a ring above Zalama's head, resembling a ceremonial tool.
"Obtained five of them now. Do you know the whereabouts of the remaining two?" Zalama asked, withdrawing his gaze.
Mechikabura replied, "Yes, we've confirmed their locations. Besides the one taken by the Time Patrol, we have also pinpointed the location of another. I've already sent Towa to retrieve it."
"Towa? Just her alone?"
Zalama frowned. "Mechikabura, at this point, why didn't you send everyone out? What if something goes wrong?"
Zalama knew Towa quite well. Even though she had received Demon God's power, she was the weakest among Zalama's subordinates. Sending her alone to retrieve the last dragon ball worried him.
However, Mechikabura seemed confident. "Don't worry. Zalama, there's one dragon ball in the Time Nest. Since you've already fought the Time Patrol, why not seize the opportunity to retrieve that dragon ball too?"
"Mechikabura! If I have to retrieve all the dragon balls myself, our cooperation can end right here!"
With an irritated tone, Zalama snapped and then left the hall, heading back to his room.
Seeing Zalama snapping at Mechikabura, people from the Demon Realm wanted to scold him, but Mechikabura stopped them.
"Enough. Zalama is right. Pass my orders: have all the Demon Gods and the Masked Army prepare. Once Towa returns, we will attack the Time Nest and retrieve the last dragon ball!"
"Yes!"
As Mechikabura's voice echoed, far away, Zalama was in his room in the Demon King's Castle.
Zalama slumped into a cold chair, closing his eyes in exhaustion.
"Damn you, Popo! Damn you, Saiyans!"
He opened his clothes, revealing a body covered in terrifying cracks.
It turned out that Zalama was not unwilling to go to the Time Nest to retrieve the dragon ball, rather he was injured in his previous battle with Lin Chen.
Such injuries would have been fatal to others, but Zalama survived.
However, he was temporarily unable to act and had to rely on the people of the Dark Demon Realm.
"Damn Saiyans, once I've fully recovered, I will eradicate Saiyans from all the universe."
...
Time Nest.
After a brief rest, the Time Patrol, though temporarily without Lin Chen, began to prepare for their next operation.
Because Chronoa had locked onto a new time anomaly.
This operation could be their last, so the entire Time Patrol prepared to deploy together.
Moreover, to fill Lin Chen's void, Chronoa called for reinforcements.
Hit, Caulifla, and Kale from Universe 6.
Jiren and Toppo from Universe 11.
Seeing these powerful new allies, Chronoa felt confident. With these strong warriors, as long as they didn't encounter that freak Zalama again, the people of the Dark Demon Realm are nothing to worry about!
"Alright, new Time Patrol, move out!"
At Chronoa's command, Goku and his team began to pass through the Space-Time Door to their mission location.
"Have a safe trip!"
Satan and Buu waved goodbye.
Soon, this unprecedented large force traveled through time and space, arriving at an unfamiliar new world.
It was a desolate planet, looking neither like Earth nor any place Goku and the others had been to before.
"Strange, where are we?" Goku wondered.
"Trunks!" Vegeta called out.
Trunks immediately used his scouter and was surprised. "Father, we're not on Earth. We're on another planet!"
"Another planet? Where?"
"Planet Greymount!"
Vegeta exclaimed, "What? This planet is quite a distance from Earth. Why are we here?"
As Vegeta was puzzled, Goku, Broly, Hit, and Jiren, the top fighters of the patrol, suddenly turned around and looked into the distance.
The others, also shocked, turned as well. Piccolo and Lazuli, among the weaker ones, began to tremble!
"What...what's happening?"
"What is this overwhelming aura?"
"Is there something over there?"
Without wasting any time, Goku and the others flew towards the horizon.
The weaker ones hesitated, barely able to stand due to the aura, and some doubted if they should follow.
In the end, they all decided to follow.
Moments later, the group arrived in a valley.
The source of the terrifying aura was finally revealed.
As Goku and the others floated over the valley, a massive shadow leapt from the bottom of the valley, landing in front of them.
Without a word, the figure attacked.
"Who?"
"What's happening?!"
In the next moment, Lin Luo and Taro were sent flying.
Lazuli cried out in surprise, light shining from her palm. A series of energy blasts, like a rapid-fire cannon, hit the attacker. However, the attacker seemed as if they were merely splashed by rain and didn't care at all. Turning around, they punched Lazuli, sending her flying.
Immediately, a crazed voice, as if possessed, came from the attacker's mouth: "Kakarot! Kakarot!"
Hearing this, Goku and Vegeta, who had been doubtful, finally exclaimed.
"Broly! Is this Broly?!"
Some of the Time Patrol members reflexively glanced at the nearby Broly.
"Broly, is that really you?"
Broly frowned, staring at the figure with a grave expression.
The attacker was tall and burly, towering over everyone present, even Broly.
His body was covered in red fur, black hair, and a tail on his back, indicating his identity.
This was clearly a Saiyan in Super Saiyan 4 form.
However, he was wearing a mask on his face.
It was this mask that initially prevented the others from recognizing him. Only when he spoke did they realize his identity: it was Broly!
On the chest of this so-called Dark Broly, a seven-star Dragon Ball was embedded.
