Chapter 87: How to Kill a God
"In my timeline. The Kaioshin died." Trunks said.
"That explains why it got to such a state," Whis replied.
"Whis, What do you mean by that?" Vegeta asked.
"You see when the god of creation, also known as the Kaioshin dies the god of destruction also dies," Whis answered.
"They both represent two sides of the opposite spectrum. One is responsible for Creation while the other is responsible for destruction. One cannot exist without the other." Whis explained.
"Wait. So the way to kill you is to kill the Kaioshin." Goku asked.
What a terrible weakness to have. Vegeta thought in his mind.
"Don't think of doing any funny business. The only reason why you and this planet are still in existence is because I decided to spare you. If you try to kill that good-for-nothing god I will have no choice but to erase you from this universe." Beerus threaten Goku and Vegeta.
"Don't worry. If I ever wanted to defeat you I would defeat you in a one-on-one fight." Goku said.
"And us Saiyans will never use such underhanded methods. After all, we Saiyans are the Warrior Race." Vegeta also agreed with Goku.
"Still that guy called Black. What a joke! It seems like he wanted to take over my place." Beerus said.
"Don't worry Lord Beerus. Finding the identity of that so-called Black might be easier than we expected. The fact that he knows that the death of a Kaioshin can kill the god of destruction means that he is also a god just like you, Lord Beerus." Whis said.
"And even then only the top gods know about this." Whis continued.
"And to find a world where Goku and the God of destruction do not exist means that the probability of him being a time hopper is also high," Whis explained.
"So what you are saying is that not only that guy is a ranking God but also he is a time traveller like this brat here," Beerus said as he pointed his finger at Trunks.
"I am not sure." Trunks replied.
"I am not entirely sure but I suspect that it is a Supreme Kai or his apprentice. Since they know how to kill the god of destruction and have time rings that would allow time travel." Whis made a guess.
"Well, since you are here you should relax first. I will find a way for you to go back." Bulma said to Future Trunks.
"Oh, I know. In the mean time. Why don't you go and visit Gohan?" Bulma suggested.
-----------------------------
At that time outside the capsule corporation.
"So....." Bra said as she looked at Goten.
".... So what?" He asked.
"Aren't you going to apologise to me for underestimating me?" She asked him.
"No, I mean you didn't lose. But that doesn't mean you won either." Goten replied.
He thought that he was justified in underestimating her as he doesn't remember her beating anyone who would give either him or Trunks trouble.
She lost against Buu, Cooler and even Frost. And he also does not think she could beat Hit, 21 and Beerus if she ever fought them.
Even after she unlocked Legendary Super Saiyan 2 she still cannot beat Future Trunks.
She is not weak but she still needs something that could allow her to compete with the strongest.
The same can be also applied to her best friend Marron but Marron is more focused on fighting someone who is on or near the same level as her.
"Jerk." She said as she walked away in anger.
"So do you think she was going to eat that chip?" Marron asked Goten as she eyed the food that Bra left.
"I doubt she will eat it." He replied.
---------------------------
In the world of Kai.
"Sorry for the interruption." a yellow-skinned old man who was wearing the clothes of a Supreme Kai said as he arrived at the world of Kai in Universe 7.
His name was Gowasu. The Supreme Kai of Universe 10.
He was also accompanied by a young kai who was also wearing Supreme Kai's clothes. Called Zamasu.
"Oh. You already have arrived." Shin said as he greeted Gowasu.
The South Supreme Kai greeted Zamasu.
"Who are they?" Trunks asked North Supreme Kai as he looked at Gowasu and Zamasu.
"A mortal?" Zamasu said as he looked at Trunks.
Everyone present there except Shin was shocked when Zamasu said that, simply because of his facial expression.
Zamasu's face shows immense hatred when looking at Trunks and Mai.
What is his deal? Trunks thought in his mind as he looked at Zamasu.
"Mortal? Oh right. I have to introduce you to Trunks and Mai." Shin said.
"Trunks. Come here for a second." Shin asked Trunks.
Shin seems to not notice Zamasu's strange and somewhat hateful reaction towards mortals such as Trunks and Mai.
Trunks walked towards Shin who was standing near Gowasu and Zamasu.
"It's nice to mee you. I am Trunks Briefs." Trunks said as he extended his hand to shake hands with Zamasu.
Zamasu accepted it but he doesn't look very happy about it.
Zamasu. You are going to be the next supreme Kai after me. Please watch your behaviour. Gowasu said to Zamusu through telepathy.
"It's nice to meet you too. Mortal." Zamasu said to Trunks.
-------------------------
In Future Trunks's timeline.
"There are no traces of him left," Black said as he slowly flew around the earth to search for Future Trunks's ki.
But there was no luck.
"It's like his existence disappeared from this place. Is it because of the Dragon Balls?" Black thought.
"No. Piccolo is already dead."
"And he does not have enough resources to go to Namek after I killed his mother. And even if he did go there I have already destroyed the Namekain dragon balls. And I doubt he would know about the Cereal Dragon balls." Black said to himself.
"So what did he exactly do and where did he go." Black has no idea.
He looked at the ring that was on his ring finger.
"It can't be." He said.
"I must be overthinking things. A mortal cannot do such things like that." He said as he threw away the idea of Trunks going back in time.
