After hearing what Zeno said, Whis covered his mouth and smiled, then complained to Zeno, "Master Zeno, Lord Beerus is more interested in food and sleep than destruction...!"
Beerus broke out in a cold sweat, the floor beneath him soaking wet. He cursed Whis in his heart for being disloyal. "How could you say something like that at a time like this?!"
Vados wiped the corners of her eyes dramatically, pretending to be aggrieved, then spoke up.
"Master Champa doesn't take care of his health. His figure is completely out of shape. He even complains that the food I prepare isn't tasty. It truly breaks my heart!"
Champa was completely baffled. "Can't you see I'm already in a pitiful state? Why are you adding fuel to the fire? You shouldn't have even saved me!"
"Um..."
After hearing the two Angels' complaints, Zeno thought for a moment and said, "Why not replace the Gods of Destruction? There are a lot of strong people here!"
Beerus and Champa looked up in shock, their eyes filled with fear!
Zeno, noticing their fear, grinned slightly. "Just kidding!"
"Huh~!"
Beerus and Champa both breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had narrowly escaped death.
Zeno smiled brightly and looked at everyone. "I came to remind you, but watching your tournament was really fun!"
"So next time, why don't we gather people from all twelve universes and hold a grand competition? What do you think?"
Beerus and Champa's faces turned pale. Zeno holding a competition was never a good sign. Usually, some universes would suffer the consequences.
Rayden and the others remained silent. Even Goku, who always enjoyed a good fight, didn't speak up.
They were strong now. As long as the Gods of Destruction didn't use their destructive energy, they could handle them. But a competition organized by Zeno? That was a different level.
A minute passed.
Zeno stood there awkwardly. Dozens of people, and not one dared to respond.
The two guards looked furious. They shouted, "Are you all deaf? Didn't you hear what Master Zeno just said?!"
Beerus and Champa dropped to the ground again in fear. Anyone who dared say they didn't hear would lose their ears!
Zeno chuckled. "Since you're all silent, I'll take it as a yes!"
He then walked toward Rayden with his short legs.
Rayden was completely confused. "Why is this eraser-shaped god walking toward me? Did Angels Mojito and Kusu report something?"
Zeno looked up at Rayden, his eyes sparkling. "Rayden, do you know where my dad is?"
Whis and Vados froze in shock. Rayden knew something about Zeno's father?
The Supreme Kais and Gods of Destruction were dumbfounded. Zeno had a father? And if Zeno was this powerful, how terrifying must his father be?
Rayden stood there stunned. "I've only been here for a little over ten years! How would I know?!" He quickly responded, "Master Zeno, I've never seen your father. I have no idea where he is."
"Really? But your aura is very similar to the person who left with my father..."
Zeno looked disappointed. Rayden was even more confused.
"Similar to Mr. Popo's master's aura? A guy from billions of years ago? No way... Could he also be a time traveler?"
Zeno tugged on Rayden's cloak.
Rayden, irritated, yanked it away. "Can't you see I'm thinking?!"
He looked down and saw Zeno dangling from his cloak, still holding on tightly.
"This kid is always grabbing people's clothes. What is wrong with him?"
"Wheee! I'm flying!"
Zeno giggled, clearly enjoying himself. Rayden sighed, gently set him down, and asked, "Master Zeno, what can I do for you?"
"Rayden, want to come to Zeno's Palace and play with me?"
Rayden instantly rejected him. "Master Zeno, I have things to do. I can't go."
Champa stood up and pointed angrily. "How dare you refuse Master Zeno!"
Zeno turned his head, staring at Champa.
"Do you want to disappear?"
"No no no! Master Zeno, I won't do it again!"
Champa dropped to his knees in terror.
Rayden smirked and said, "Master Zeno, if you're bored, go play with that fat cat! He has nothing better to do and often sneaks off to Universe 7 to search for Super Dragon Balls."
"Great idea!"
Zeno beamed. "Rayden, you're my best friend now. You can call me Ah Quan, just like my dad!"
Rayden nodded with a smile.
"Once you're done with your work, be sure to visit me at the Palace!"
Zeno held out his tiny hands. His guards returned and took his hands, standing on either side.
"Thank you, Master Zeno!"
Beerus and Champa bowed deeply.
"I'll let you all know about the tournament. And Champa, don't forget to come play with me!"
With that, the guards took Zeno and vanished in a stream of multicolored light.
The moment Zeno left, Champa jumped up and pointed at Rayden. "Rayden, are you trying to get me killed?!"
"Fat cat, point at me again and I'll cut your paw off!"
Broly and the others stepped forward and surrounded Champa.
Champa trembled, sweat pouring down his face. "Why can't I control my mouth? I'm done for again!"
The old Supreme Kai sighed. "This guy really does forget pain when the wound heals."
Whis noticed Beerus' sour expression and didn't want things to escalate. He spoke up.
"Rayden, you already got your revenge. Let it go for now. Master Champa has to go to Zeno's Palace soon."
Rayden considered for a moment, then nodded.
"Hmph! You're lucky, fat cat!" Cell scoffed.
"Uncle Rayden, let's summon Shenron! I want to see what Super Shenron looks like!" Goten said excitedly.
A Dragon Ball the size of a planet? The Shenron it summoned must be massive!
