Chapter 124: Preparing to Depart
Not only God of Destruction Realm—at Supreme Kai Realm, two heads also crowded before a crystal orb, staring at Turles's figure displayed inside.
After watching briefly, Supreme Kai Shin still couldn't discern Turles's purpose. He couldn't help asking Old Kai:
"Ancestor, what do you think Turles is doing?"
Hearing Shin's words, Old Kai didn't speak. Just his expression appeared somewhat grave.
"Hmm? Ancestor?"
After long moments without Old Kai's response, Shin turned toward Old Kai. Only then noticing Old Kai's expression seemed off.
But just as Shin wanted continuing to ask, the crystal orb changed.
At some unknown moment, Turles had already raised his head. Eyes cold, he stared forward—as if seeing through the crystal orb toward them.
"Ah!"
Startled by Turles's gaze, Shin couldn't help exclaiming. Next second—using some unknown method—the crystal orb's image became blurry, losing Turles's projection.
"This—"
Seeing this scene, Shin and Old Kai looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
After silent moments, Shin nervously glanced at Old Kai's serious face, swallowing saliva.
"Those are wishing orbs, also called Super Dragon Balls. Like Namekian Dragon Balls, they can grant any wish of those who collect them. However, wishing orbs' abilities are far more powerful!"
Old Kai's voice was somewhat low. One could hear his current mood wasn't calm.
"Wishing orbs? Dragon Balls?"
Hearing Old Kai's introduction about wishing orbs, Shin initially felt somewhat puzzled. But hearing the end, his eyes directly widened.
Seeing Shin's expression, Old Kai also guessed Shin's thoughts. Directly giving him a chop, he warned:
"Don't think about using wishing orbs' abilities. These are Lord Zalama's arrangements left for the entire universe. Cannot be used except at critical moments. Moreover, using Dragon Ball-type things too much may trigger bad events. As Supreme Kai, you must remember this!"
Shin had never seen Old Kai this serious. Hearing this, he nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking rice.
Seeing Shin absorbed his words, Old Kai finally relaxed. However, when he saw the already-blurred crystal orb, his heart still acquired a layer of gloom.
'Turles, what exactly do you want to do?'
---
Red Stone's outer space had currently completely changed appearance.
Four gigantic orange celestial bodies—size comparable to Red Stone—now revolved around Red Stone's perimeter.
Inside the four celestial bodies, one could clearly see different quantities of red five-pointed stars distributed evenly.
Most critically, regardless from which angle viewing these four celestial bodies, one would clearly see the stars' frontal faces inside.
That's right—these were precisely the Super Dragon Balls Turles collected from throughout the universe.
Hovering in the universe above Red Stone, Turles looked at the four continuously-shimmering Super Dragon Balls. A trace of joy flashed through his eyes.
However, thinking of the just-experienced feeling of being watched, Turles's heart acquired a layer of shadow.
Needless to say, Turles already guessed those watching him were definitely Old Kai and Shin.
Though Turles—relying on methods learned from Old Kai—temporarily interfered with both, as long as one was human, one wouldn't want living under others' surveillance. Much less Turles, this person full of secrets.
'Looks like Old Kai still feels somewhat uneasy.'
This thought flashed through Turles's mind.
Turles felt he'd treated both Old Kai and Supreme Kai Shin sincerely. Whether toward Old Kai or Shin, he maintained basic respect. Not at all as casual as the original's Goku. Yet Old Kai still maintained vigilance toward him.
'Perhaps I'm still too utilitarian. Can't treat others with pure sincerity like Kakarot!'
After thinking long moments, Turles only thought of this reason. Couldn't help self-deprecatingly smiling.
However, currently Turles also thought about—after collecting Super Dragon Balls this time—what wish he should actually make for himself.
Beep beep beep!
Just as Turles felt emotional, his communication watch suddenly rang.
"Boss, where are you now? Come back quickly! Four super-gigantic Dragon Balls suddenly appeared around Red Stone!"
The moment he connected, Raditz's voice rang out.
"Yeah, Boss! Come back quickly! Such huge Dragon Balls—if I couldn't see the same stars as Dragon Balls inside, I'd barely dare recognize them!"
Raditz's voice just fell when Nappa's voice immediately followed. From their tones, one could tell both were currently somewhat excited.
Smack!
Hearing this, Turles slapped his forehead. He'd somewhat forgotten—he hadn't mentioned collecting Super Dragon Balls to Red Stone's people yet.
Such massive four Super Dragon Balls appearing at Red Stone—Red Stone's Saiyans not discovering them would be strange. Raditz and Nappa had even witnessed Dragon Balls before. No wonder both were so excited.
"Wait, I'm in Red Stone's outer space. I'll come down immediately!"
After speaking, Turles hung up communications. Then his body leaned backward, descending toward the ground.
---
Still Red Stone's meeting room.
Currently—whether veterans like Paragus, Nappa, Raditz, or newly advanced elite warriors like Clark and Bela—everyone excitedly stared at Turles seated at the head position.
"Boss, is what you said true? Are there truly Super Dragon Balls that can grant any wish?"
Raditz's wife Bela first broke the quiet. She strenuously suppressed her excited emotions, confirming with Turles again.
That's right—Bela had already become Raditz's wife. Right after Raditz could independently transform humanoid Great Ape form, their relationship had already been known by everyone.
After meeting Goku and Chi-Chi, Raditz also learned from Goku's method. He and Bela held a wedding, becoming—following Turles and Bulma—Red Stone's first married couple.
During Planet Vegeta times, Saiyan concepts were relatively free and open. If two people matched—directly forming families, living together sufficed. There was simply no marriage concept.
After Raditz and Bela, Saiyans continuously held weddings. This greatly differed from Planet Vegeta customs.
Bela's words fell. The entire meeting room quieted. Several heated gazes fell upon Turles.
Seeing this, Turles secretly shook his head. He knew—Dragon Balls capable of granting any wish held tremendous temptation for some people.
But Turles had to pour cold water on them.
"Super Dragon Balls can indeed grant any wish." Turles paused briefly. Seeing everyone's eyes frighteningly bright, he continued: "But they're not so easily collected."
Words falling, Turles secretly observed everyone present. Discovering these people just frowned—their eyes showing no dissatisfaction—he secretly nodded inwardly.
"In Universe 7—our universe—only four Super Dragon Balls exist. Wanting to summon Shenron and grant wishes requires collecting the remaining three Super Dragon Balls!"
Hearing this, those present already understood.
Regarding the entire universe's composition, Turles had previously explained to them. They naturally understood the entire cosmos had 12 universes. Wanting to reach other universes—the difficulties were imaginable.
Thinking this, everyone felt deflated.
However, Turles didn't stop. Continuing: " The remaining three Super Dragon Balls are in Universe 6. In Universe 6, unlike Universe 7's God of Destruction, he hasn't fallen into slumber. So people from other universes entering Universe 6—once discovered—may be found by God of Destruction, thus being erased."
Speaking here—seeing several people showed no fear toward the God of Destruction's great power in his words—Turles directly dropped a bombshell:
"And I, not long ago, couldn't withstand even one move from God of Destruction before completely losing!"
Hearing this, everyone present could no longer maintain composure.
Exactly how powerful Turles was—they weren't clear. But they knew—as long as Turles wanted, everyone present couldn't possibly be Turles's opponent. Including current Broly.
But now Turles said—he actually couldn't withstand even one move from God of Destruction before losing. This sounded somewhat horrifying. Only now did they truly gain rough understanding of Gods of Destruction.
"Turles, is what you said true?"
Paragus still somewhat disbelieved. Asking Turles with trembling voice.
Turles didn't answer. Just extended his right hand. His fingertip began gathering energy. Then his finger lightly tapped the table.
The energy on Turles's hand wasn't powerful. But everyone present didn't dare any carelessness. One by one, their hair stood on end in fright.
Because in their vision, Turles just lightly tapped the table. But the table—as if someone used an eraser removing it from a painting—just transformed into dust-like particles, dissipating before everyone's eyes.
"Uh!"
This move of Turles's directly exceeded everyone's understanding.
Even Broly—strongest present—couldn't understand how Turles did it.
Destroying a table—even Red Stone's weakest Saiyan could easily accomplish. But erasing it as easily and casually as Turles—they couldn't comprehend.
"See? This is what I learned from that God of Destruction's attack. This is merely that lord's casual strike!"
Turles had decided today to properly broaden Red Stone Saiyans' horizons. So his words' information became increasingly explosive.
"Hiss!"
Hearing this, everyone immediately gasped. Bodies involuntarily retreating one step, staring horrified at where the table had been.
For a moment, the entire meeting room completely quieted.
"Hehe, now you know what this universe's true fighters are like!"
A light laugh made the dazed crowd recover. Following the sound, they looked toward Turles.
Everyone's reactions were within Turles's expectations. But next second, Turles felt somewhat surprised. Because these people's eyes showed no fear from being frightened by Turles. Only fervor.
Just as Turles felt somewhat confused, Nappa suddenly stood up. Using equally blazing gaze watching Turles:
"Boss, does this mean you've already learned God of Destruction's divine technique?"
Nappa's words were like dropping a massive stone into lake water. Making several people's gazes toward Turles even more fervent.
Hearing Nappa's words, then looking at others' expressions, Turles's mind turned. He understood. Could only helplessly nod.
Seeing Turles nod, those present immediately cheered. Raditz even performed a sliding kneel, directly kneeling before Turles:
"Boss, you're our Saiyans' true God!"
"Ugh!"
As Raditz's nauseating flattery emerged, everyone present distastefully distanced themselves half a step from Raditz.
Bela directly covered her face. Already ashamed of her husband's performance.
No wonder everyone was so excited. Based on Turles's previous behavior, as long as he learned divine techniques—whether aura control, mental training, or Instant Transmission—they'd be placed by Turles in Red Stone's exclusive secret technique room.
Just thinking they could learn that just-displayed move—such excitement wasn't strange.
That's right—Turles held absolutely no secrecy toward various secret techniques he trained. As long as they improved strength—whether Mels obtained from his sister Universe 10 Angel Kus regarding God of Destruction Rumush's training notes, or various Instant Transmission knowledge obtained from Shenron.
Even Turles's subsequent Super Saiyan training paths, his development experiences with humanoid Great Ape form—all placed completely in a Red Stone room.
So as long as Turles already learned God of Destruction's destruction technique, this meant all Red Stone Saiyans could study it.
Actually, Turles doing this just learned from Yardrat planet's people. Just he made certain restrictions. Currently, only Red Stone's Saiyans could access and study.
Perhaps only after Turles officially became Supreme Kai or God of Destruction would he open these to Universe 7's all races.
As for worrying about opening these might lead to others surpassing himself—Turles had absolutely no concern.
Reaching this point, not mentioning other things—just the confidence belonging to the strong, Turles had already established.
Just like he didn't care about Vegeta's life or death—currently, he also didn't fear anyone could surpass himself by studying his knowledge.
Next, Turles issued orders—having Red Stone Saiyans watch the four Super Dragon Balls in Red Stone's outer space. While he planned going to Universe 6.
"Hmm? You also want to go?"
After the meeting, others had already left successively. Only Broly lingered until last. After everyone departed, he stated his idea to Turles.
"Yes, my strength's growth has become somewhat slow recently. Normal training effects are already negligible."
"I remember you once said Universe 6 also has some powerful fighters. So I also want going to Universe 6!"
Hearing Broly's idea, Turles just briefly thought before agreeing.
Like this, the personnel going to Universe 6 added Broly!
