Chapter 818 Barrier

1st timeline, Trunks’ world.

In a city, the wind was whistling as it blew through the alleys, making a jarring sound like the cry of a baby and like a grieving cry. Accompanying this destroyed city was a hint of coolness.

When Xiaya appeared with Goku and others, what came into their sight was a vast and dilapidated desolate view, with broken walls, criss-crossed ravines, and numerous artillery craters of varying sizes. The largest of which was nearly a kilometer long, occupying a large area of their field of view. There were a few trails of black smoke in the distance, causing the air to exude a pungent smell of sulfur.

From the towering half of a building, you can vaguely see the prosperity of the past, but now it has turned into ruins.

“This is the West City of the 1st timeline. It was rebuilt many times during the battle with Majin Buu in the past, but now it has turned into ruins.” Chronoa looked around and told them what happened to West City in the past.

Xiaya nodded, then he concentrated and sensed the surrounding aura, but he quickly furrowed his eyebrows. Within his perception range, he could only sense a few traces of living beings on Earth except for a few clusters of living beings gathered together to form a gathering place.

“Zamasu is really ruthless, the humans on Earth are almost extinct.”

When he met Zamasu the first time, although Xiaya could somewhat sense his scheming heart, he did not expect that one day he would do such an extreme thing. Even if the Zamasu of two timelines are quite different, the difference shouldn’t be that big. What a pity!

Goku’s face was gloomy and his calm heart was already full of anger. He looked around at the silence around him, and turned around and asked, “Can you sense Zamasu’s aura?”

“No, I can’t sense it.”

Vegeta, Calote, Dal and others all shook their heads. Zamasu and Goku Black’s aura wasn’t on Earth. There are only two possibilities for this situation: First, Zamasu has stepped into the Divine Realm; Second, Zamasu and Goku Black have left Earth. In the second case, trying to find them is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Xiaya does not want the second case to have happened.

After pondering for a while, Xiaya said: “It’s only been a short time since Trunks left using the time machine and from what Trunks previously said, Zamasu has been on Earth for more than a month, so it is impossible for him to leave easily. Moreover, look, the humans on Earth are not completely extinct, so they should still be on Earth.”

“Um.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Vegeta placed his foot on a stone and looked into the distance. His face was gloomy and cold as he exuded a cold aura. Bang, he trampled on the protruding rock and crushed it before saying: ” Let’s first go to the gathering place that Trunks mentioned. It is the last shelter of the Earthlings, if Zamasu really wants to completely exterminate the Earthlings, he will not let them off.”

“Vegeta is right, let’s take a look over there.”

Thinking that Trunks will take a time to return, and the landing site will most likely be near the gathering place, Xiaya also nodded in agreement.

After reaching a consensus, Xiaya and other seven people flew into the sky and soon, they disappeared in the dark clouds.

Although West City is the most prosperous city on Earth and occupies a vast area, for Xiaya and the others, it took less than a few seconds to traverse the entire city. In the blink of an eye, they appeared above the gathering place.

Beneath the shelter below, there were thousands of fragile living beings gathered together, which may be the only remaining humans on earth.

They slowly descended and Xiaya found the entrance to the underground.

At this time–

The security guards guarding the gathering place discovered Xiaya and the others, but when they saw Goku’s appearance, they immediately opened fire.

The sound of firing came from the icy barrel as the bullets flew towards Xiaya and the others. Facing the incoming bullets, Xiaya casually extended his hand and tapped his finger in the void. As if metals were colliding, sparks erupted out and then the metal bullets fell to the ground, all turning into a round cake shape.

“Hide!”

Giving the people who ambushed them a smile caused them to retreat quickly in fear.

The guards quickly switched the bullets, raised their guns and prepared to shoot again.

“Wait!” A loud female voice shouted, stopping the guards from continuing firing. After a while, a beautiful black-haired woman in a dark blue coat came out.

“Captain, that person destroyed our homeland! The people with him must be his companions!” Several people who had fired their guns emerged from different places and looked at Goku with hatred in their eyes. But when they looked at Calote next to him, their eyes revealed confusion.

“They are not enemies.”

The black-haired woman was Mai. She looked at Goku, Vegeta and others with a complicated expression and said in a trembling voice: “Goku and… Vegeta, are you the helper that Trunks found?”

“You know us?” Vegeta raised an eyebrow and said coldly.

Mai nodded, it should be said that aside from Trunks in this world, only she has seen Goku and Vegeta before.

That was when Androids first appeared. At that time, she and Pilaf were turned into babies by Shenron, and they had watched Vegeta and the other Z Warriors from a distance, but that was the last time. After that, all Z Warriors died at the hands of Androids.

As for Goku, he has a lasting bond with the Pilaf trio, and Mai wouldn’t make a mistake in recognizing him.

“Are you really Goku and Vegeta? It means Trunks successfully returned to the past and was able to invite you over…” Mai sounded a little excited as if she was full of hope for the future again.

“Why didn’t Trunks come with you?” Mai asked.

“Ah, he’s coming in the time machine. Maybe it is slightly slower. ” Goku said.

“Interesting, you are Mai that Trunks mentioned!”

Seeing Mai, Xiaya found her to be a little familiar. It was not until Mai called out the names of Goku and Vegeta that Xiaya was sure that the young woman in front of him was a female member of the Pilaf trio. He didn’t expect her to still be alive and that she is associated with Trunks.

Of course, Xiaya didn’t bother to pay attention to the reason.

“Yes, my name is Mai, are you… Mr. Xiaya, Trunks’ teacher?”

Mai wasn’t sure, but seeing that in the group of seven, Calote and Dal looked exactly the same as Goku and Vegeta, and the other two were little girls in weird looking clothes, the remaining man is very likely to be Trunks’ teacher – Mr. Xiaya.

“Yes, it’s me. We’ll talk about the situation when Trunks arrives.” Xiaya looked around and asked, “Mai, do you know the current whereabouts of Zamasu i.e. Goku Black and the green-skinned Supreme Kai?”

Mai shook her head and indicated that she didn’t know: “Sorry, I don’t know.”

Xiaya nodded, he was just asking casually and didn’t hold much hope. He had expected that Mai didn’t know Zamasu’s whereabouts. He turned around and said to Chronoa next to him: “Now we are in the same timeline as Zamasu. Try to use the Time Scroll to find their whereabouts.”

Hearing what he said, Chronoa immediately took out Time Scroll to check, but as before, she found no traces of Zamasu.

“No, I still can’t find them. Spirit King’s palace is still protecting them.”

“Then we’ll just wait, they will definitely show up one day.”

After about ten minutes, a dazzling light suddenly shone in the messy ruins, and a time machine suddenly appeared several meters high above in the open space.

The door opened and Trunks jumped out of it.

“Trunks!” Mai shouted in surprise.

“Mai.”

Trunks hugged Mai. Xiaya gave them a strange look and coughed, attracting their attention.

Trunks blushed in embarrassment, walked over to Xiaya and respectfully said, “Teacher Xiaya, I’ll leave it to you now.”

Xiaya waved his hand and said, “Let’s draw out Zamasu first. We’ll go far away from West City, then Trunks, you amplify your aura and attract Zamasu. After Zamasu comes out, I’ll set up a spatial barrier with Chronoa and the others and seal Zamasu inside!”

After saying that, he glanced at Chronoa and Eve.

Chronoa and Eve nodded one after another: “Don’t worry, we will do our best to provide support.”

“Then it’s decided!” Xiaya said with a straight face.

He had no choice but to do this because behind Zamasu there was a mysterious Spirit King’s palace that was shielding them for some reason. Before cutting off the connection between the Spirit King’s palace and Zamasu, Xiaya could not act rashly. Once Zamasu escapes, it will be difficult to find them again.

Moreover, the Instant Transmission ability that Zamasu knows is also a rather troublesome skill. To kill them, they need to be fully prepared.

“I understand.”

Trunks nodded in understanding, then the time machine turned into a Hoi-Poi Capsule and he put it away before instructing Mai and others to hide.

After doing that, Xiaya, Chronoa, Eve, Goku, Vegeta, Calote, Dal and Trunks flew away from West City.

They flew at low altitude and except for Trunks, everyone’s aura was restrained.

Soon, they crossed the hills and plains, passed through the snow-capped mountains and vast mountain range, and arrived at a very desolate plateau. It was a freezing place with rustling cold wind. It is a frigid cold place without any traces of life.
