Whoosh—
Supreme Kai's World. Raditz landed with a large group of people, gasping for breath.
They had just experienced planetary destruction—it could truly be called a narrow escape.
Seeing that Raditz had brought so many humans to the sanctuary, Kibito immediately wanted to object, but was stopped by Supreme Kai: "Leave him be. These people are fighting for the universe."
Supreme Kai smiled lightly as he had been closely monitoring Earth's situation. The fierce battle between Raditz and Boundless wasn't just about one planet—it concerned the entire universe.
Although it wasn't as terrifying as Majin Buu, the degree of danger was unpredictable if Boundless was allowed to develop unchecked.
"Kibito, go restore their strength."
"Me?" Kibito pointed to himself and twitched the corners of his mouth. Not only allowing numerous mortals to set foot in the holy land, but also having him restore their physical strength? There had never been such a thing in tens of thousands of years!
However, Kibito couldn't go against Lord Supreme Kai's wishes, so he could only agree and walk toward Raditz.
"Where is this place?" Everyone was somewhat at a loss. Although Raditz had rescued them, arriving in this strange environment suddenly made them curious. "There are two people over there. The big guy is walking toward us—he looks strong."
"What weird clothing."
"Yeah, really poor taste."
...
Some whispers were spoken too loudly, and Kibito heard them. He tried his best to maintain a calm expression while the corners of his mouth trembled inwardly.
Foolish mortals, I won't stoop to your level, Kibito thought to himself.
But that laughter kept reaching his ears, still making his brow twitch and the wrinkles on his face slightly furrow.
Suddenly, he noticed that Raditz was shirtless, and his eyes lit up.
"Raditz, Supreme Kai and I witnessed the battle on Earth. Thank you for your hard work. I'll restore your strength." Kibito spoke and pressed his hand on Raditz's body. Tremendous power was instantly transmitted to Raditz's limbs and skeleton, and his physical strength recovered quickly!
"Thanks. Please restore the others too."
"Wait a moment—I'll provide you with some clothing. It's inappropriate to be shirtless in the Supreme Kai's realm." As he spoke, Kibito showed a mischievous smile.
Raditz was taken aback, sensing something bad was about to happen...
Suddenly, under Kibito's magical power, he was dressed in an outfit exactly like Kibito's standard Supreme Kai attendant uniform. The people who had been chattering burst into uncontrollable laughter.
Veins bulged on Raditz's forehead as he had the urge to deal with Kibito on the spot.
But Kibito had already moved on to the next person to restore their strength.
After introductions, everyone gradually understood this was the Supreme Kai's realm, and the two strange figures before them were actually the Supreme Kai and his attendant standing at the universe's apex!
"Wow, Uncle is very powerful—he actually has miraculous recovery abilities."
"Supreme Kai's realm! Amazing."
After being treated, their attitudes toward Kibito changed dramatically as they all marveled at the miraculous recovery ability. Kibito regained his divine dignity while wiping off sweat. How much energy these people possessed—it actually made him feel like facing an endless abyss.
Gohan looked around but didn't notice Piccolo's figure.
"Where's Uncle Piccolo?"
"He didn't teleport with us. It seems he was with Earth..." Raditz looked up at the sky. He could see Earth disappearing into the dark universe from the Supreme Kai's realm.
Supreme Kai also sighed quietly: "Earth no longer exists."
"Uncle Piccolo is immortal."
"No, Piccolo is dead because Kami is dead." Raditz shook his head. "But it doesn't matter—Earth and the dead can be revived with Dragon Balls. It's just unfortunate that Boundless's chip wasn't destroyed."
Raditz had been prepared to sacrifice Earth when Boundless summoned Big Gete Star. He had only expected to eliminate Big Gete Star—who would have thought Boundless would be one step faster?
The planet's explosion destroyed Raditz and the others' foothold, but Big Gete Star's chip wasn't damaged, and Boundless had achieved his goal. His plan to absorb Earth's energy and exact revenge was half complete.
"No. 17 and the others..." No. 18, who had finally been rescued by Raditz, spoke up. They couldn't escape at the last moment—only she had been rescued by Raditz to the Supreme Kai's realm, but No. 16 and No. 17 were missing.
"I don't know. Don't worry—there are Dragon Balls, and we can always find them."
Maybe the androids died, maybe they survived, but in the vast universe, even Supreme Kai couldn't locate a person precisely.
No. 18 didn't know what Dragon Balls Raditz was referring to, but she trusted what he said. She looked at Raditz and nodded firmly.
"Raditz, what do we do now? Where are we going to find that bastard?" Vegeta walked up with arms folded, anger evident on his face. Don't let his surface focus on fighting fool you—he was probably furious about Bulma and baby Trunks's deaths.
"I can't find him. It seems he's no longer in his original location. After all, the energy attacks from Earth's explosion may have blasted him to some corner of the universe. He'll only show signs when he gathers again."
As soon as he finished speaking, Raditz was startled, his hair standing on end.
Not only him—everyone felt a bone-chilling cold hit their hearts as they looked in the same direction.
Supreme Kai and Kibito both opened their mouths wide enough to fit two eggs. This was the divine realm—why could people just show up whenever they wanted? It was almost becoming a tourist destination!
And the figure before them looked exactly like Gero, except for lines under his eyes similar to Cooler's, and his sharp gaze reminiscent of the Frost Demons.
Boundless—he had actually come to them!
"How is this possible... this is the sanctuary..." Kibito's jaw trembled.
"Instant Transmission. My two chips merged into one, and I mastered this technique. Hmm... so this is your base camp?"
Boundless landed slowly, looked around, and was surprised to find two unfamiliar faces while Raditz and the others were all in perfect condition. He had been about to use his powerful post-fusion strength to reap a harvest, so he hesitated.
But his tone remained full of arrogance and disdain. After all, he had absorbed all of Big Gete Star's energy. At this moment, he was the "ultimate android" that Gero had once envisioned! Boundless had transformed himself.
He even showed off by bursting with energy, crazy aura surging around him—truly becoming more and more human.
"Great, so you've fused together." Raditz couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Boundless thought everyone would panic, but he hadn't expected Raditz to be laughing.
"It wasn't easy to deal with you when you were scattered, but now it's enough to knock you down."
Raditz judged the general strength from Boundless's aura. The strength of Boundless's so-called ultimate android was equivalent to his own. Big Gete Star's energy was indeed sufficient, but just as the strength of the manufactured Metal Coolers could only be limited to one billion, the strength used to enhance the android was also limited.
If the excess energy had been used to make more Coolers, it would still cause Raditz some headaches, but the overconfident Boundless had combined the chips, which was simply wasteful.
Boundless, you should be destroyed!
