Time Nest.
A Space-Time door suddenly opened, and after a moment, a figure emerged and crashed heavily to the ground.
Chronoa, Supreme Kai of Time, immediately ran over and asked, “Lin Chen, how are you? You fool, what were you doing? You could have left already! Why did you wait until now?”
Lying in Chronoa’s arms, Lin Chen looked utterly exhausted, and he even lacked the strength to speak.
At this moment, he not only bore numerous wounds but also couldn’t muster an ounce of extra strength.
During the past 72 hours, Lin Chen had paid a considerable price to withstand Jiren’s attacks.
In that time, he had fought Jiren numerous times, but each one ended in a crushing defeat.
He couldn’t even hold out for more than ten exchanges against Jiren.
If it weren’t for the fact that Lin Chen had a large supply of Senzu Beans in his possession, along with his Power of Creation to heal his body, and considering Jiren’s principle of not taking life, he would likely have perished long ago.
“It’s been a while since I felt this powerless. The last time was when I faced Hit.” Lin Chen sighed inwardly.
Thankfully, his efforts didn’t go unrewarded. At least, in Lin Chen’s system space, there was now an additional Ultra Instinct’s experience card.
Maybe in the future, he might have a chance to grasp this technique, which was considered the most powerful in Dragon Ball.
However, at this moment, Lin Chen suddenly sensed a faint feeling of his body breaking down. What was happening?
Chronoa beside him also noticed something was amiss and exclaimed, “Oh no, Lin Chen, your body is about to collapse!”
“What’s going on?”
“You fool, did you eat a lot of Senzu Beans earlier? Although they can repair your body, they continuously consume your life force. You’ve eaten too many Senzu Beans this time, and now the life force in your body is almost depleted!”
“Damn! What should I do?”
“You have the Power of Creation, right? Quickly use it to nourish your body! That’s the only way to save yourself!”
Hearing that, Lin Chen didn’t waste any time. He immediately sat cross-legged, transformed into a half-a state divine realm, and began using the Power of Creation to resist the collapse of his body.
This was a lengthy process, and before he knew it, a year had passed.
But Lin Chen’s body had not stabilized yet.
Subsequently, one year passed, then two, three……
In the blink of an eye, another five years had passed.
Finally, Lin Chen’s condition began to improve.
In fact, some good came out of this setback. Thanks to the influence of the Power of Creation, his body became much tougher than before.
Before, due to his Legendary Super Saiyan bloodline, Lin Chen already possessed a physique far surpassing that of an ordinary person. However, that kind of physique ultimately remained within the realm of mortals.
But now, after this improvement from the Power of Creation, Lin Chen’s body gradually began to step into the realm of the gods.
…
Meanwhile, in Lin Chen’s world, Universe 7.
An unusual spaceship quietly approached Earth.
“Babidi-sama, we are approaching Earth.”
On the bridge of the spaceship, a figure with an M-shaped mark on their forehead stood behind a shorter figure.
This shorter figure was the evil wizard Babidi, whom Supreme Kai had been pursuing for a long time!
As for the taller figure, it was Dabura, the King of the Demon Realm. Babidi had used various means to gain this powerful lackey for his journey to Earth.
“Dabura, is the ship’s stealth system working for sure? Earth is a bustling planet, and I don’t want us to be discovered by anyone before we get close!”
“Don’t worry, Babidi-sama. The stealth system is functioning correctly. No one will detect us.”
“Very good! Once I release Majin Buu, I won’t fear anyone anymore!”
However, at that moment, Babidi suddenly felt anxious.
“By the way, Dabura, have we received any recent information from our spy on Planet Vegeta? Has the Saiyan King appeared?”
“No. He seems to have disappeared from the public eye for the past ten years.”
Hearing this, Babidi flashed a relieved smile. His biggest fear while going to Earth to release Majin Buu’ seal was encountering Lin Chen, the Saiyan King who had fought Golden Cell. Babidi had noticed the immense power they had displayed, making him wonder if even Majin Buu’s resurrection might be enough to defeat Lin Chen.
Fortunately, he later received information that Lin Chen had vanished without any traces since that battle, which gave him the courage to plan the release of Majin Buu.
Seeing Babidi looking cautious, Dabura reassured him, “Babidi-sama, excue my frankness, but you don’t need to worry. Even without Majin Buu, with me, Dabura, by your side, you are already invincible.”
“After all, I am the King of the Demon Realm. Even in the vast Dark Demon Realm, aside from the missing Dark King Mechikabura, there are no stronger beings than me!”
Even after hearing this, Babidi did not lower his guard. After all, Dabura had joined him only in recent years, and he hadn’t witnessed the battles of those powerful individuals back then. So, he naturally wouldn’t know how many unrivaled experts still existed in the world.
“Never mind. We can discuss that later. Regardless, let’s focus on resurrecting Majin Buu!”
Meanwhile, on Earth, five years had passed since the Tuffles’ revenge plot.
During these five years, Earth had entered a period of prolonged peace. Even in the universe, there have been no major events. It seemed that an era of long-lasting peace was approaching.
However, one day, Earth suddenly became lively because on this day, the long-awaited World Martial Arts Tournament was going to be held.
Since the destruction of the Martial Arts Temple, which used to host the World Martial Arts Tournament more than a decade ago, Earth hadn’t organized large-scale martial arts tournaments. But this time, the situation was different.
After joining the Galactic Federation, Earth’s perspective had expanded beyond what was depicted in the original work. Through interactions with other civilizations, Earth’s inhabitants had gradually come to understand that in the universe, technology was not the ultimate power; martial arts were the key determinant of a civilization’s strength.
Especially the Saiyan Martial Arts Tournament held on Planet Vegeta, which was now considered the most famous martial arts tournament in the entire universe.
After hearing about it, Earth’s super magnate Zenny visited Planet Vegeta to witness it firsthand. After experiencing its grandeur, he developed the idea of reorganizing a martial arts tournament on Earth.
After careful preparations, with the sponsorship of Zenny, the new World Martial Arts Tournament was successfully organized on Earth.
This tournament was open to all martial artists on Earth, and it even included special invitations to four Saiyan guests who had participated in the Saiyan martial arts tournament.
This grand event, which hadn’t occurred on Earth for a long time, quickly captured the attention of the entire planet, even drawing the interest of the Z Fighters.
