Of course, there were still some things that puzzled Gran.
For example, the origin of that mysterious force, as well as how those cold and sinister auras had appeared...
Those were questions he could only investigate slowly after the Universal Martial Arts Tournament was over.
There was also something else Gran remembered.
Whenever Whis, Vados, and Kusu had faced him before, they had always seemed to have something they wanted to say but ultimately held back.
Gran suspected that these angels already knew about everything that had happened.
Perhaps once he returned, he would finally be able to learn all those secrets directly from Whis and the others.
"This..."
Quitela exchanged another glance with Kuru.
"We'll meet again. Until next time."
Gran turned around and was about to leave.
Just then...
"Wait!"
Quitela could no longer hold himself back.
"Mr. Gran, judging from the way you're dressed, I assume you're also a God of Destruction?"
"No."
Gran answered while keeping his back to Quitela and Kuru.
"??"
Quitela's eyes widened.
"You're not a God of Destruction? Then why are you wearing God of Destruction attire?"
"Who said only Gods of Destruction are allowed to wear this kind of clothing? Can't a Candidate God of Destruction wear it?"
"What?!!!"
Quitela's breathing suddenly became rapid.
"You mean to say that you're only a..."
"Yes. I'm merely a Candidate God of Destruction."
BOOM!
Gran's words struck Quitela and Kuru like a thunderbolt, leaving their minds spinning.
No wonder they didn't recognize Gran.
It turned out he was only a Candidate God of Destruction.
But since when had a Candidate God of Destruction become this powerful?!
Was the world going crazy?!
If Gran were actually a God of Destruction, Quitela could at least accept his overwhelming strength.
Take the Beerus of their timeline, for example.
His current level of power had already reached the level of a half-step into the Angel Realm.
But Gran was only a Candidate God of Destruction.
What gave him the right to possess such terrifying strength?
"Mr. Gran, may I ask something?"
Quitela and Kuru stared intently at Gran's back.
They had no reason to doubt Gran's words.
There was no reason for him to lie about something like this.
So who exactly was this guy a disciple of?
Gran stood with his back toward them, the corners of his mouth curling slightly upward.
"The Seventh Universe."
After saying those words, he immediately disappeared.
Only Quitela and Kuru remained behind, standing there in a daze.
"Slap!"
Quitela suddenly slapped Kuru across the face.
"Lord Quitela, what are you doing?"
Kuru covered his cheek, looking deeply aggrieved.
"Did it hurt?"
"Of course it hurt!"
Kuru gave him a resentful look.
Quitela suddenly fell into a daze.
The next second...
"He's actually the Candidate God of Destruction of the Seventh Universe?"
"Doesn't that mean he's a disciple trained by Beerus?"
"I don't believe it!!!!"
Quitela threw his head back and roared toward the heavens.
Kuru also finally came to his senses.
He stood motionless, looking like a complete idiot.
...
Meanwhile, Gran continued using his physical body to carve out a path through the void.
He needed to return in time to preside over the Universal Martial Arts Tournament, so he once again devoted all his strength to traveling as quickly as possible.
Previously, when he had traveled from the Seventh Universe's former God of Destruction Realm through that pitch-black passage, it had taken him thirty days.
This time, he was much faster.
It took him only fifteen days to return to the entrance of that pitch-black passage.
"Whew!"
Gran floated in the void, breathing slightly heavily.
During his previous journey, he had nearly exhausted all his stamina.
But this time, he had only used up about half of it.
After making just one round trip, his control over his own power had improved yet again.
"This place really is something!"
Gran turned around and surveyed the Chaos Zone.
The cold and sinister aura here could help temper one's will.
The monsters could also be used to hone Destruction Rules, pure power, combat techniques, battle instincts...
Thinking about it this way, how could the Chaos Zone be a hidden danger?
It was clearly a holy land for cultivation!
More than half a year ago, Gran had already cultivated his Destruction Rule to the peak of the Second Order.
Unfortunately, he didn't have enough time now.
Otherwise, he would definitely have cultivated it to the Third Order before leaving.
"I'll come back next time."
Gran sighed before turning around and flying into the passage.
The inside of the passage was still pitch-black.
When Gran had entered this tunnel the first time, he had been somewhat cautious.
But now that he knew what was inside, he simply charged through it without restraint.
During his return journey, several monsters had actually crawled into the passage.
However, under Gran's brutal charge, those monsters were instantly smashed into dust.
Before long...
Gran finally arrived before the rift.
With his current strength, under normal circumstances, he would have been unable to enter the Chaos through a crack in space-time.
It was this particular rift that had given him the opportunity to enter the Chaos.
"Could this rift be a remnant left behind by that mysterious force?"
Gran reached out, wanting to touch the rift.
But he couldn't.
Gran shook his head.
Now was not the time to dwell on such questions.
And so...
He once again began reinforcing himself with various powers.
Super Saiyan 4, Divine Power, Destruction Power, Space-Time Power...
The combined power within Gran once again reached the peak of the First Order of the Angel Realm.
BOOM!
BOOM!
The entire pitch-black passage began to tremble violently.
"Break for me!!"
Gran's gaze became frighteningly sharp.
He clenched his fist and punched directly toward the rift!
CRACK!
BOOM!
Two consecutive sounds rang out.
The rift was shattered once again by Gran's punch.
Without the slightest hesitation, Gran immediately leaped through the opening.
Gran returned to the space-time rift.
The world here was no longer as dark as the Chaos Zone.
Everything was silver-white, so bright that it was almost dazzling.
Space-time storms raged all around him.
Yet in the face of these space-time storms, Gran didn't even blink.
He continued moving his left hand.
The Time Ring on his finger immediately burst into a silver-white radiance.
Space-Time Leap!
Using the Time Ring, Gran quickly returned to the GT timeline.
"I'm finally back."
Gran floated within the starry sky and sensed the surrounding auras.
Son Goku and the others were currently in the Supreme Kai's Realm.
"Looks like everyone has been waiting for me."
Gran raised a finger and pressed it against his forehead.
With a whoosh, he instantly disappeared.
...
Supreme Kai's Realm.
Under the large tree.
Kibito was preparing tea for Old Kai, while Old Kai was sitting at the tea table reading his beloved adult magazine.
High above them, Son Goku and Vegeta were fighting.
Below, Pan and Trunks were watching the battle.
BOOM!
BOOM!
...
The collision between Goku and Vegeta generated enormous shockwaves.
Old Kai had originally been happily reading his magazine.
But suddenly, the book in front of him was blown away by the surging shockwave.
"Can't you two be a little quieter?!"
Old Kai instantly became furious.
He craned his neck upward and roared at the two fighters.
The next moment...
A black figure came crashing down from above.
Old Kai hurriedly jumped out of the way.
BOOM!
A deep crater instantly appeared beside him.
Old Kai looked down into it, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
"Vegeta, how did you lose again?"
The person lying inside the crater was none other than Vegeta.
Hearing Old Kai's words, Vegeta raised his head and roared furiously.
"You damn old man! Do you even know how to talk to people? If you don't, I'll teach you!"
