“Thank you for your care!”
Lin Chen quickly thanked her, “I am a Saiyan from Universe 7, looking for the Super Dragon Balls to fulfill my wish.”
“I already know that. I have been observing you,” Vados chuckled, “Also about Hit, I have actually been pointing him in your direction as well.”
Lin Chen revealed an expression as if he expected it. He had guessed that someone must have been giving directions to Hit in order to always be able to track him, but he never expected it to be Vados. No wonder they had always been discovered by Hit no matter where they went.
“Thanks to you, I have saved a lot of time. So this time, as a reward, I’ll tell you a small piece of information.”
Vados said with a faint smile, “I know you have lost track of the location of the seventh Dragon Ball, but as far as I know, it is neither in Universe 6 nor Universe 7.”
“It’s not in Universe 6 and Universe 7 both? Could it really be in neutral space?” Lin Chen muttered upon hearing this.
“Neutral space? No, no, there is no such thing as neutral space in this world. The space between universes is a completely empty world,” Vados shook her finger.
Lin Chen was confused because in the original work, the seventh Dragon Ball was indeed hidden in neutral space and was used as the venue for Champa and Beerus’ martial arts tournament.
Now, according to Vados, it seems that this neutral space does not exist at all. Where could the seventh Dragon Ball be hidden then?
“Miss Vados, please give me your guidance.”
Vados said with a faint smile, “According to my investigation, after the Super Dragon Balls fulfill a wish, they scatter back to Universe 6 and Universe 7. As for the seventh Dragon Ball, it should have been swallowed by a black hole while flying towards Universe 7 and subsequently end up in another world.”
“Black hole?” Lin Chen suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Vados explained, “Sometimes, in the universe, an astonishing amount of energy can be produced due to certain celestial phenomena. Some of this energy is so enormous that it can tear space and time apart. These torn cracks, like black holes, will swallow up all objects that pass through them. The black hole I mentioned is one of them.”
“What? Then isn’t the last Super Dragon Ball already destroyed?” Lin Chen grabbed his head in frustration.
With one less Dragon Ball, the seven Super Dragon Balls would never become a set again. Wasn’t all his hard work over the past year in vain then?
However, at this moment, Lin Chen suddenly heard Vados say: “It couldn’t have been destroyed, the creations of Dragon God Zalama are not so easily destroyed. The dragon ball should still be in some corner of the universe… only it is likely not in Universe 6 or Universe 7 anymore…”
“Another universe? Could it be one of the other ten universes? That’s going to be a problem…”
“No, it’s much more troublesome than falling into one of the other ten universes. The final dragon ball is likely to have fallen into a different space-time!” Vados explained.
“A different space-time… parallel universe?”
Lin Chen’s mind immediately thought of the world with another Broly that he had visited before.
“Oh, you even know about that? I’m getting more and more curious about you!” Vados pressed up against Lin Chen’s face, examining him up and down.
“Yes, a parallel universe. The other side of a black hole is sometimes connected to another world. The final dragon ball should have wandered into that world, but I don’t know which world it is. You’ll have to find that out by yourself.”
At this time, Vados’ scepter flashed a few times. She glanced at it and then smiled at Lin Chen, “Alright, I’ve said everything I needed to. You can go now, or else Hit will be here soon.”
“Thank you, Miss Vados.” Lin Chen bowed to Vados and then took out a Hoi-Poi Capsule and gave it to her.
“Miss Vados, if you don’t mind, please accept this as a gift from me for you and Champa-sama.”
Inside the Hoi-Poi Capsule was Lin Chen’s last trump card, which he had prepared just in case. Now that he was going back, they would be of no use to him, so he might as well give them to Vados and leave a good impression on her and Champa.
“What is this?” Vados looked at the capsule curiously.
“It’s a Hoi-Poi Capsule, something we use in our universe to store things. Inside is some of our universe’s food. I heard that Champa-sama likes to eat delicious food, so I hope he’ll like these.”
Vados’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, “You even know about that? How curious. Well, I’ll accept these on behalf of Champa-sama then.”
“Thank you. We’ll be taking our leave now.”
With a flash of light, Lin Chen used Instant Transmission and disappeared from space with Tights and Hanasia.
A few seconds later, the three of them appeared in some corner of Universe 7.
At this time, Tights pulled on Lin Chen’s arm and asked, “Lin Chen, who was that woman just now? She seemed really strong.”
Lin Chen looked at her and smiled, “Do you remember me talking about Angels and the God of Destruction? The woman just now was the Angel of Universe 6, Vados, the strongest person in Universe 6!”
“She’s an Angel?” Tights and Hanasia were both surprised, they hadn’t expected a real Angel to look like that.
“Right, Lin Chen, what does the Angel of our Universe 7 look like?”
“He? Our universe’ Angel is Vados’ younger brother and he’s called Whis. He’s also a formidable guy.”
“Oh! I didn’t expect you to also know my name. Vados was right, you really are an interesting little guy.”
Just then, a faint laughter suddenly sounded next to the three of them.
Whoosh!
Along with the laugh, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
“Whis?”
Upon seeing the appearance of the figure, Lin Chen’s expression suddenly changed.
It really is… just after seeing off his sister, he was greeted by her brother.
Although he had known that he would certainly meet Whis in the future, Lin Chen hadn’t expected it to be so soon.
But seeing that Whis was alone, Lin Chen guessed that the God of Destruction, Beerus, was probably still sleeping.
Compared to Lin Chen, upon seeing Whis, Hanasia and Tights both looked nervous.
“Hoo hoo hoo, little ladies, don’t be afraid. I’m not a bad person.”
Holding his scepter, Whis walked a couple of steps forward and arrived beside Lin Chen, “I just heard from my sister that there is an interesting person in our universe, so I came to take a look.”
“I didn’t expect that what she said was true, it’s really interesting. A Saiyan who has mastered the Instant Transmission, a skill only gods can learn, and also comprehended the power of time and space. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would have had a hard time believing it.”
Whis said lightly, his face showing a hint of delight.
In the end, he said to Lin Chen, “Your name is Lin Chen, right? Are you interested in becoming God of Destruction’s successor?”
Well this is an interesting development XD
