This time, Whis was helping out by communicating with the Supreme Kais, applying pressure down the hierarchy until they reached Earth's Guardian. The Guardian then recruited Bardock and Goku for the mission.
As for the rest, Whis used his scepter to locate several individuals across the universe with substantial power and potential, and then summoned these people, gathering them for intensive training. Utilizing the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, they underwent years of training within a short period. Although the door to the chamber might disappear, Whis had no concerns, as he could reopen it easily.
For them, breaking through spaces that even Buu's power could shatter was simple. Beerus marveled at Earth's many valuable resources, like the Senzu Beans, though with Whis around, they were unnecessary. Whis could revive the dead, far surpassing the capabilities of Senzu Beans. At Whis's level, the boundary between life and death was practically irrelevant.
With everyone now rigorously training, Whis, Beerus, Bardock, Goku, and the Supreme Kai headed to Zeno's palace, as only Supreme Kai could guide them there.
Within Zeno's palace, even a fusion using the Potara earrings would not hold, and the users would split immediately.
"I never imagined such an immense power existed in this world. It's truly unimaginable and unbelievable!"
Bardock marveled at Zeno's palace in front of him. His senses were completely blocked, making him feel like a mere ant, easily squashed at any moment.
When Beerus first found them, Bardock had unleashed Super Saiyan 3, only to be instantly defeated by Beerus. This had greatly frightened Bardock, realizing that participating in this battle would be extremely challenging at their current power level.
But afterwards, Whis will give them special training. If there's no surprise, it would would likely enable them to achieve Super Saiyan Blue, or even stronger forms. In the original series, Vegeta had a deeper blue form. It wasn't visually appealing, but its combat power was impressive.
"Why is Zeno suddenly holding such a tournament? What's going on?"
Along the way, Beerus and the others also met the Gods of Destruction and Supreme Kai from other Universes. They were also taken aback when they saw Beerus and the others were carrying a few non-deity beings, but they didn't say much afterwards.
The angels didn't interfere, indicating it was permissible. Knowing this, they saw no need to comment. However, they realized Beerus probably had insider information, hence why he brought two mortals along.
"It seems like Beerus and his group know something interesting. Let's hurry and find out what's happening!"
Belmod and the others also quickly followed, and soon, twelve Gods of Destruction and Supreme Kai were all present.
"What's going on? Why are there humans with Champa? What secrets do these brothers' Universes know?"
The people from other Universes watched this scene with confusion. This time, Belmod actually brought another person. This person is Toppo, the candidate for the God of Destruction of Eleventh Universe. To be honest, Belmod really wanted to step down from the position of God of Destruction.
Because this position is somewhat troublesome, he feels that he has reached his limit and can no longer advance. So, he plans to retire but needs someone to take over.
Once one becomes a God of Destruction, they have to consider these... weak Supreme Kais. He doesn't want to be restricted by this anymore, so he chose a candidate for the God of Destruction. And this candidate is quite promising, having quickly mastered the power of destruction.
However, what happened afterward left Belmod speechless. Toppo, this guy, outright refused to accept the power of destruction. The purpose of a God of Destruction is to maintain the balance of the Universe. If a lifeform disrupts this balance, they will directly destroy planets.
Sometimes they don't even wait for such an existence to appear and take immediate action to reduce the Universe's pressure. This can lead to innocent lives being affected. For example, Beerus has destroyed planets because he didn't like someone's attitude or the food they prepared, even destroying half a planet at times.
But Toppo is a peculiar case, an extreme advocate of justice. For the sake of justice, he can give up everything. He's a super righteous individual, but this kind of justice is not what a God of Destruction needs. Despite mastering this power, he refuses to use it, which drives Belmod crazy.
He painstakingly trained a candidate, but this guy fails at crucial moments. So this time, he brought Toppo along to see the bigger picture.
"Now that everyone is here, let's welcome Zeno-sama and Asahi-sama!"
The Grand Priest saw that everyone else had arrived and said directly. The beginning was fine, but after Asahi's name was called later, all the Gods showed shocked expressions.
Why? Of course it is because there is no life in this world that can be placed side by side with Zeno.
But now, Grand Priest's words indicated that Asahi's status was on the same level as Zeno, which seemed impossible. Nonetheless, they didn't dare to say much. Meanwhile, Goku and Bardock exchanged glances. After all, they had been neighbors with Asahi for so many years, and have good relationship, with visiting each other often. But now, seeing him as a true deity was astonishing.
"Oh, and in case you didn't know, Asahi-sama's power is on par with Zeno-sama and he is also a friend of Zeno-sama. So from now on, treat him as you would Zeno-sama, or else... no one will speak for you if you die!"
Grand Priest's words, though seemingly lighthearted, had a profound impact on the others. Soon, Asahi appeared with Zeno, both chatting and laughing, causing everyone to tense up.
Bardock and Goku were similarly taken aback. While they had mostly guessed it, seeing it firsthand was entirely different.
After the two sat down, everyone greeted them.
"No need for formalities, Grand Priest, please continue!"
After Asahi spoke, he handed the stage back to the Grand Priest again.
