A/N: Hello, everyone. Sorry I took so long, but I finally finished the 8th episode of this saga. Earlier, I had some difficulty helping this chapter make sense, but I pulled through it and finished it. As for pairing the present 21 with Yamcha, that may be something I can accomplish in the next episode. Anyhoo, enjoy.
Dragon Ball Super
The Saiyan Warrior of Hope Saga
"Threat of the Time Breakers!; Yurei and Trunks' Resolve"
Chapter 1
Suddenly, a cosmic veil appeared and popped a bit, revealing Beerus, Whis, Yurei, Android 21, and Goku as they slowly descended downward. Then, Beerus, Whis, Yurei, and Android 21 landed safely on the ground near Gowasu and Zamasu before they bowed to him.
Narrator: "Previously on 'Dragon Ball Super'! Beerus, Whis, Yurei, Android 21, and Goku travel to Universe 10 to speak with Zamasu, a Supreme-Kai-in-training whose energy closely resembled Goku Black's."
"Would you mind going a quick round with me just for fun?", Goku asked.
Zamasu clenched his hand into a fist while he asked.
"You want me to fight you?"
Then, as surprising as it is sudden, the crest of Universe 7 glowed not only on Yurei's back, puzzling Yurei, just as much as the demon from far away, but also on Goku's back before he eminated a blue-silver aura while his eyes turn silver and glow right before the aura burst outward, positively surprising Zamasu, as well as Yurei, 21, Beerus, Whis, and Gowasu, not to mention the nerdy demon from far away. However, Zamasu exerted his purple and white aura, in turn, mirroring Black's power-up from Piccolo's fight a while back as Goku thought about that.
Narrator: "But during the fight, Goku unwittingly received a first hint of Ultra Instinct and began to pique Zamasu's curiosity about this unique power that even the Gods themselves cannot attain easily."
"This sensation.", Goku thought.
Then, Zamasu halted his exertion and glared at Goku, grinning as his white and purple aura glowed. Goku had more thought about that, seeing through the blue silver flames.
"Was that the same as Black's energy? No. But it was awfully close."
"Of all the mortals in the cosmos, I never thought you would awaken such a power. Had I know you were capable of that, I would've agreed.", Zamasu admitted.
Then, Goku "hmph'd" before he charged toward him again. Then, Zamasu succeeded in blocking the punch. But Goku was pushing back, pushing his fist past him as well, earning Zamasu's surprise before Goku leapt a great distance backwards before he began his dash toward him. Then, Goku bellowed with a deeper voice in his voice's background as he drew closer and closer to Zamasu up until he then began his punch only to halt it a few inches from his face, blowing off a gust of wind a few moments before Goku stood upright. To say the least, Zamasu was in awe from such power as he slowly looked up before the silver-blue aura faded, meaning that Goku is returning to normal, before he offered him his hand. Zamasu then grinned before he grabbed it and then stood up as Goku spoke next.
Narrator: "Due to the immense mastery of self-movement, Goku ultimately won the spar just as the incomplete power wore off."
"You know, for just a plain ole Kai, you're pretty strong. Let's do this again sometime, okay?"
Zamasu continued grinning as he spoke back.
"Why, certainly. After this fight, I must admit, I was quite intrigued by this 'Ultra Instinct'. When the time comes, we'll have a rematch, Goku. I wish to know more about that power. You've opened my eyes today."
Then, Fu turned up surprising everyone before it showed Beerus and Zamasu expressing their suspicions before it showed Fu introducing himself.
Narrator: "Then, a rather strange and curious being from the Demon Realm made his presence known."
"Well, anyway, I'm no one suspicious. I am Fu."
Whis was quite intrigued by the name.
"You don't say?"
"Yeah, I was just traveling the multiverse, minding my own business, when I noticed you and your group headed to the 10th Universe, so I decided to pop on over there and see what's going down. And that takes us up to now.", Fu answered.
Then, it showed Fu waving goodbye before disappearing in a puff of purple smoke before it showed Goku, Android 21, Yurei, Beerus, and Whis conversing about Zamasu and Black's connection before it showed Zamasu making tea before he, himself, caught a glimpse of his tea glowing a crest of the 7th Universe before it showed the present 21 aiming her candy-beam powered finger at Grand Elder Moori. Then, much to her chagrin, the present 21 turned around to notice a white blue demon woman with long, white hair, a long skirt, and a staff to boot.
Narrator: "As the mysterious Fu makes his departure, with no clear answer, the link between Zamasu and Goku Black has only begun to surface. Meanwhile, at the same time, an even more terrifying threat surfaced on New Namek with their goals shrouded with dark intent."
16 responded back to her before she spoke back.
"Why are you here?"
"I hope you aren't thinking of interfering. That'd be a mistake."
Then, the demonic android walked from behind her, sporting a sort of armor with a sort of cloak wrapped around his waist before he turned to 16 and the currently evil, present 21.
"A costly mistake. I will eliminate you here and now.", responded the demonic android before he released his energy in the form of a red aura, catching the two androids off-guard, as well as the Grand Elder, who gasped.
Narrator: "What is the true explanation? The mystery continues, now!"
The sun was rising as Mr. Popo opens the door to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to Future Trunks, Future Mai, Gohan, and Piccolo, who walk in one at a time.
"You're welcome to stay for as long as you like", Mr. Popo stated.
After Future Mai nodded, a voice rang out.
"Hold on!", the voice shouted.
Then, the four turned to notice Vegeta there before he gave a smirk and responded.
"It just so happens that I will be joining in."
Future Mai and Future Trunks were quite surprised.
"Vegeta?", Future Mai exclaimed.
"You mean you'll train with us, Father?", Future Trunks asked.
Vegeta only scoffed before he replied.
"More or less. I'm just looking for a good place to train other than the Gravity Chamber."
Future Mai gave a slightly nervous grin.
"Uh, sure.", Future Mai responded.
Then, as the five fighters enter the room, Mr. Popo adds one crucial detail to help them train for a year in this dimension.
"And there are some refreshments to help keep you going during your training here."
Future Mai sighed in relief before speaking to him.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Popo.", thanked Future Mai.
Then, Mr. Popo responded as he was closing the door.
"You are indeed welcome."
Piccolo then spoke to Gohan, Future Mai, and Future Trunks.
"Okay, everyone. If we're gonna go up against Black, you have to first concentrate on giving your energy firm through meditation."
Future Mai grew puzzled while Gohan had a guess.
"Meditation?", asked Future Mai.
"It's what helps us focus our energy and hone it in battle."
Piccolo gave a grin and nodded as he responded.
"That's correct, Gohan. But, in rare cases, it also gives some of us the opportunity to use image training to perfectly hone our instincts and learn the lessons necessary, let alone receive visions that give us clues on how to defeat our common foe."
Future Trunks was impressed from that while Vegeta scoffed.
"Really, Piccolo?", Future Trunks asked.
Piccolo turned to Future Trunks before he spoke.
"That's right, Trunks, and I suggest we get to it now."
"Yes, sir!", the four trainees shouted to Piccolo.
Later, Future Trunks was meditating in midair, having his own image training.
Play Super Music: "The Final Death-Match (Episode 110 Version)
Future Trunks thought to himself as his image training was beginning.
"The showdown is coming.", Future Trunks thought.
Then, in his mind, above the water and in the midst of heavy fog and heavy rain, Goku Black stood before Future Trunks and chuckled before Future Trunks went for his sword as Black continued smiling.
"Make no mistake; you're going down!", Future Trunks proclaimed.
Then, as he dashed toward Black, his opponent only dodged the sword, causing it to smack the water instead. Then, Future Trunks went for it again only for Black to go behind him this time. Then, as Black's dark yellow Ki Blast glowed, so did the symbol of Universe 7 on Future Trunks' back much to both fighters' surprise before a greater power erupted from Future Trunks, clearing the heavy fog and revealing that, much to Black's shock, he was enveloped not only by a glowing shell, but also a blue-silver, flame-like aura. Black's dark yellow Ki Blast even crumbled from the pressure of this aura emanating from Future Trunks.
"It can't be!", Black exclaimed.
Then, Black tried to land a hit on him, only for Future Trunks to dodge every one of his punches and eventually punched and kicked Black away before he prepared a blue-silver Ki Blast on his right hand before he held it up, quickly causing the blast to expand to its full size and then launch it toward Black, who struggled to keep it at bay. It was only a moment after that the shell crumbled, revealing Future Trunks' eyes turned silver, although the pupils are still visible, and his hair is glowing white, much to Black's horror.
"No! Can it be?! Is that Ultra Instinct?!", Black shouted as Future Trunks' hair stopped glowing and turned silver.
Then, Future Trunks stood up straight before the blast detonated on Black, causing the water to swirl and push outward. Then, Future Trunks opened his eyes and gave a brief gasp in surprise, catching Piccolo's attention.
End Super Music: "The Final Death-Match (Episode 110 Version)
"What is it, Trunks?", Piccolo asked.
Future Trunks then turned to Piccolo and answered.
"I-I think I had some sort of vision."
Piccolo was somewhat surprised.
"Already?"
"Yeah.", Future Trunks replied before he continued. "I was fighting Black. He has the upper hand from the start, but then some strange symbol glowed on my back, and before I knew it, my body moved for me and actually defeated him. From what I can tell, Black called it 'Ultra Instinct'."
Piccolo was quite surprised, but still kept his calm state.
"'U-Ultra Instinct'? You don't say?", Piccolo responded.
Future Trunks nodded before he replied.
"Yeah. Whis told me about it earlier."
Piccolo knew what that could mean.
"If that's the case, then we better get you as strong as we can during a year's training and quickly.", Piccolo urged.
Future Trunks agreed with a nod.
"Right."
Meanwhile, at Capsule Corp., Dr. Briefs, or rather, his robot helper, was finishing up on putting a tank's worth of Blue #15 in a canister.
"All right. That should do it. At least enough for one trip, anyway."
Then, Dr. Briefs put the lid onto the canister before it began to shield the blue liquid entirely and close perfectly well.
Meanwhile, the drowsy Pilaf was yawning and clearing his eyes as he walked into the lab and passed by Future Bulma, who was over at the computer while the present Bulma was getting close to fixing the Time Machine. He spoke to the present Bulma as he walked over to the computer desk.
"Another all-nighter, huh? You've got quite the work ethic, Bulma. Honestly, it's kind of disgusting. But let's see what you've got.", Pilaf said.
Then, much to Future Bulma's slight behest, Pilaf went on top of her lap, puzzling her as he took a look at the data.
"Uh, Pilaf. What do you think you're doing?", asked Future Bulma.
Pilaf only responded with a question, although not speaking to Future Bulma.
"What sort of primitive programming is this?", Pilaf asked.
Future Bulma felt quite peeved about it and puffed out smoke from her nostrils much like Majin Buu puffed out smoke from his holes.
"What?! How dare you call my programming primitive?!", Future Bulma shouted.
Pilaf quickly panicked from that slight overstep and tried to get Future Bulma to see reason.
"Aah! I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to overstep, or anything! I just thought this emergency boot disk program had a little room for improvement, okay?!", Pilaf stated.
Future Bulma knew where Pilaf was getting at and had little choice.
"Well, if you really believe it that much, I haven't a choice. Just don't do anything bad, all right?", urged Future Bulma.
Pilaf only giggled somewhat devilishly before responding.
"But, of course! After all, it is time for the great Pilaf to give his imperial touch! You don't master world-domination without learning how to code!"
Then, Pilaf began improving the emergency program boot disk.
"Let's see. A few change parameters here, a UDF there. Oh, yeah! Now, we're looking snazzy!"
Then, Future Bulma saw that it was true.
"Yeah! You're right! That is better!"
Pilaf stammered a bit before he gave a nervous grin.
"Well, I try.", Pilaf replied.
Then, Future Bulma decided to call the present Bulma over.
"Hey! Other me! Take a look at this!", Future Bulma shouted, unknowingly giving Pilaf reason to panic as Bulma went down the ladder.
"What is it?", asked Bulma.
"Well, this little guy actually improved the emergency program boot disk quite well.", Future Bulma stated.
Then, Bulma noticed the improvements before she turned to Pilaf and spoke.
"Really? Well, I've gotta keep my eye on you!", Bulma commented.
That practically made Pilaf panic and even pull out a lollipop.
"Whatever do you mean? I'm not plotting anything!", Pilaf responded.
Then, Bulma stood back up.
"Looking good.", Bulma admitted.
Then, both Bulma's grabbed Pilaf before they spoke in unison.
"Okay! Let's make our final push and get this thing ready to launch!"
Pilaf needed to breathe at the moment, as joyous as the moment is.
"Can I breathe now?", Pilaf choked.
Meanwhile, in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, Future Trunks was meditating in midair, leaving Future Mai and Gohan curious as Vegeta watched Future Trunks from a distance.
"What do you think he's doing, Gohan?", asked Future Mai.
Gohan knew the answer rather quickly.
"If I had to guess, I'd say that's image training.", Gohan theorized.
Future Mai felt that Gohan was making it up.
"Are you making this up, Gohan?", Future Mai asked.
Gohan only explained to her in response.
"No, it's actually an excellent mental exercise. You see, right now, he's picturing his opponent. Although, I'd guess he's picturing Goku Black, and he's figuring out some new techniques to catch him off-guard."
Meanwhile, in his mind, Future Trunks was charging toward Goku Black, who smirked, before he eventually used Aura Slide on him. However, that use was for naught as the silver-blue aura emerged as well as the crest of Universe 7 on his back before only a strand of hair was cut off from his head, startling Black.
"What?! What's the meaning of this?!", exclaimed Black.
Then, Future Trunks, shown to have silver irises, quickly turned to Black and bellowed briefly as he propelled his fist forward, sending out a gust of pressurized wind toward Black, hitting him squarely in the gut before it propelled him away from him as the water moved upward from itself as Black was being pushed back by the force of the punch amidst the fog and rain. Then, Future Trunks panted before he looked at his own Fist through the blue flames surging around him.
Back at the Time Chamber, Future Trunks began emitting a blue-silver aura as well as Universe 7's crest, surprising Vegeta, Future Mai, and Gohan. Vegeta only gasped, though, as Future Mai and Gohan responded.
"Whoa! What is that?", Gohan asked.
"That's the same symbol Trunks told me about earlier. From what he told me, it looked like some kind of owl."
Gohan was puzzled.
"Whoa. Really?", Gohan asked.
Future Mai nodded in reply. Having heard the conversation, Vegeta only scoffed and gave a grin before he thought to himself.
"It seems my son is making some rather intriguing progress.", thought Vegeta.
Gohan guessed that he cannot be bothered.
"For now, I suggest we leave him alone. We don't want to derail his train of thought, after all."
Future Mai concurred as she nodded.
"Yeah. You're probably, right."
Meanwhile, Future Trunks thought to himself.
"I still can't make sense of this 'Ultra Instinct'. Is that the one thing Black fears more than anything else? If so, even if it's difficult, I will obtain that power. I have to.", Future Trunks thought.
Vegeta, having guessed his future son's thoughts, spoke to him.
"Hey.", Vegeta spoke to him.
Then, Future Trunks opened his eyes just before the aura, along with the symbol on his back, ceased before he turned to his father.
"Yes, Father?", asked Future Trunks.
Then, Vegeta turned to the exit.
"Come with me. It's time to train you for real.", Vegeta stated.
That statement surprised Future Trunks before Vegeta spoke to Future Mai and Gohan.
"And this opportunity is for my son only! You two can keep training with this namekian if you want!", Vegeta shouted.
Then, Future Mai and Gohan replied as they nodded.
"Yes, sir!"
Piccolo grunted a bit but then gave a smirk.
"So, that's how it is, huh? I see."
Meanwhile, Goku, 21, Yurei, Beerus, and Whis had a rather rough landing, catching the younger Trunks from far away. Although only Whis landed safely while 21 was on top of Goku's back with her chest in-between his head, Yurei's back in top of 21's and Beerus on top of Yurei's chest horizontally.
"I'm terribly sorry, my lord. Inter-universe travel is complicated and the four of you were bickering so loudly, I couldn't concentrate properly and misjudged my braking speed.", Whis monotonously stated.
"You can't fool me. I know you did that on purpose.", Beerus stated.
21 can agree, seeing as she was in a rather awkward position.
"Yeah, I'd have to agree with him there, Whis. My bust is in the one place where they shouldn't be.", 21 concurred.
Whis only gave a fake laugh before he retorted calmly.
"Oh, don't be absurd."
Then, the younger Trunks went to the crater and saw five people before shouting to them.
"Are you guys okay?!", the younger Trunks shouted.
Goku only giggled in reply as Yurei and 21 stood up, removing Beerus from his back, while Goku stood up as well.
Later, Whis had already explained everything at the back patio outside where the present and Future Bulma are as well as the younger Pilaf, Shou, and Mai.
"And that's how it went."
Frankly, 21 was slightly peeved.
"By that logic, it sounds like we're no closer than we were before. Are you sure you couldn't find anything that ties Zamasu to Black?", 21 asked.
Whis only gave an honest answer.
"No proof."
Given the information, Yurei wanted, no, demanded to know why.
"Why?! Zamasu ruined everything in Trunks' future! You honestly think I'll let him go for that?! He needs to pay!", Yurei shouted before 21 tended to him.
"Calm down, Yurei! I know you hate Black and Zamasu altogether! Heck, even I do, but when it comes to the present, we can't just finish them now! It will only change history for the worst.", 21 warned.
Yurei only tensed in anger for a bit before he gave a deep breath and calmed down.
"All right, 21. If I can't end Zamasu, I'll just have to help him see reason. It's the least I can do. Besides, he seemed interested in Ultra Instinct a while back."
Play Super Music: "Zero Mortals Plan"
Whis then answered Yurei's question as he flashed back to Black's fight against Black and Goku's fight against Zamasu before he thought back to Zamasu being puzzled about Goku's appearance and then Black greeting Goku.
"Well, now that I've seen Zamasu again in person, I think there would need to be something else at play to explain their disparities. The energy from Black was so intensely negative, it was almost suffocating. Zamasu's energy was similar in other ways, but not nearly as malicious. Furthermore, I'm quite skilled at sensing deception. Zamasu seemed to have no idea who Goku was while Black spoke as if he knew Goku quite well. We also inspected their Time Rings and they're all safe in storage. So, at present, what we're left with are two similar, but not identical energies, and no other evidence to tie them together."
Beerus then spoke his statement, puzzling Yurei and 21.
"Of course, the phrase 'at present' is key.", Beerus stated.
"What?", Yurei and 21 asked.
"It's still possible his energy could darken in the future if he harbors enough dangerous ideas."
Goku was still unsure about Zamasu.
"Hmm. I'm not so sure about that. Seems like a pretty big leap from him to Black. Zamasu didn't strike me as that bad of a guy, and I should know. You could learn a lot about someone from fighting them. Speaking of which, I have to say: he had some pretty cool techniques."
Then, the younger Trunks spoke to Goku.
"But you still beat him, right, Goku?"
Goku chuckled before he responded.
"Yeah, I did."
Then, Beerus explained further as Goku continued eating.
"While it's true that Zamasu is a deity, he's only a Supreme-Kai-in-training. For someone with experience fighting against a great Destroyer like myself, he was a piece of cake."
"Yummy!", Goku exclaimed.
As Goku finished another piece of food, he unwittingly took Beerus' plate, angering him.
"That's my plate!", Beerus shouted.
As Beerus and Goku fought over the plate, Whis wanted to know something and turned to the present and Future Bulma.
"Excuse me, Bulma, or should I say 'Bulma's', because why not, do you happen to know where your future son is by any chance?", asked Whis.
"Last I heard, he was training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.", answered Future Bulma.
"Yeah, and the Chamber is in the lookout. You can't miss it.", Bulma concurred.
Whis then gave a smile before thanking them.
"Why, thank you, Bulma."
21 wanted to go with them.
"Can Yurei and I go with you guys? At least to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber?", 21 asked.
Whis saw no problem with that.
"I don't see why not. But this is the only spot you two can travel to. You do understand this, don't you?", Whis urged.
The Future 21 nodded in response, earning a slight chuckle from Whis while Yurei grew slightly puzzled.
End Super Music: "Zero Mortals Plan"
Then, Whis turned to Beerus, seeing him fight Goku over a dinner plate, before he cleared his throat and spoke.
"Lord Beerus, we'll be heading to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber on the lookout with Yurei and 21 as our guests.", Whis announced.
Beerus grew quite puzzled.
"How come?", Beerus politely asked.
"Because I've got a little opinion I'd like to share with Vegeta's future son before we head back.", Whis replied.
Beerus believed that he would reprimand him for breaking the gods' taboos.
"Jeez, Whis. I know the kid's broken a few laws, but he knows enough already."
Whis, however, knew better.
"That's not the opinion I had in mind, my lord."
Beerus just grew puzzled as he let go of the plate.
"Well, what is it, then?", asked Beerus.
"Well, you just have to see for yourself, Lord Beerus.", Whis only answered.
Beerus grumbled a bit as they flew away from the outdoor patio to Kami's lookout.
"Delicious as always, Earthlings. Sorry to eat and run, but please thank the chef."
"See you later!", shouted Yurei.
"We'll be back after an hour!", shouted 21.
Then, as Beerus, Whis, and 21 flew away, Goku wanted to know where Krillin and Piccolo are.
"By the way, where's Krillin and Piccolo?", asked Goku.
Bulma was willing to oblige as was Future Bulma.
"They left a while back.", Bulma answered.
"And Piccolo's training my son in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.", Future Bulma added.
Goku was quite thrilled about it.
"Wow, really?! Just one old times, huh?", Goku exclaimed.
Bulma can agree, but was still peeved about the lack of helpers for the lawn as she walked back inside with Goku and Future Bulma following her.
"If you say so. Dang it. Who am I gonna get to fill the holes in my yard this time?", asked Bulma.
"Don't look at me.", Goku bluntly replied.
Meanwhile, in New Namek, the two demons were now before 16, 21, and Grand Elder Moori.
"I'll have to ask again! Why are you here?!", 16 exclaimed.
The blue, pointy-eared scientist felt that some proper introductions are in order.
"I see. We haven't introduced ourselves properly.", the scientist figured.
"My name is Towa, and the warrior by my side is my accomplice, Mira."
Mira looked up a bit, opened his eyes, and then spoke to the present 21.
"It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance."
Frankly, the present 21 was sort of cross, unaware of what Towa and Mira have to offer.
"Why the heck are you two here? Not to get in the way of me procuring more sweets, I hope.", the present 21 retorted.
Mira scoffed before he responded bluntly.
"Not likely."
"Don't you see? We've come to assist you.", Towa explained.
"Assist ME?", the present 21 asked.
Towa saw fit to explain proper details.
"You see, recently, there's a certain pest who always shows up to throw a wrench in our plans. Frankly, that's more than we can bear. That's why we need your help."
As expected, the present 21 was not willing to work with them immediately.
"Heck no! I was just about to resurrect the villains Goku defeated, for my ends alone!", the present 21 retorted.
"What if we were to tell you...that we were going to do the same?", Towa inquired.
The present 21's interests were piqued from that statement.
"I'm listening..."
"You see, after we resurrect them, we will lend them a unique power that will topple history over to our favor. Better yet, if you join us, to your favor.", Towa stated.
21 positively "ooh'd" in excitement from hearing this.
"What a tempting offer!"
However, she also felt hesitant.
"But how would I know you won't try to rob me of any sweets?"
Mira was more than willing to explain.
"Simple. We hand over those who outlived their usefulness to you. Is that satisfying for you?"
Then, she quickly made her decision.
"All right. I guess I'll join you two, then."
However, while 16 found it disheartening, Towa and Mira simply grinned.
"21..."
"It seems you've made the right choice. Now, then. What is your name?", Towa asked.
Then, the power-hungry android responded.
"I am Android 21."
Towa found the name interesting.
"21, eh? Unless I'm mistaken that's the name you were given by Dr. Gero a long time ago, is it not?"
The present 21 slurped her tongue a bit before she responded.
"Yep. You certainly guessed it."
Then, 21 turned to Grand Elder Moori and resumed her business, unaware that the present Yurei was watching from far away.
"Just who are these monsters? It's like Planet Namek all over again.", thought Yurei.
Then, the present 21 lifted her index finger on her right hand, and prepared a candy beam before aiming it at Grand Elder Moori, much to Yurei's horror before he gasped harshly and charged toward her from a far enough distance.
"Now, where were we? Oh, yes. Summon the dragon or else I turn you into candy!"
Then, an angry voice rang out.
"Leave him alone!", Yurei shouted before he struck her by the cheek with his fist, knocking her back by a great distance of 20 feet, although she quickly recovered, much more peeved as Grand Elder Moori looked up in relief.
Play Super Music: "Fierce Battle against a Mighty Foe"
"I'm glad I'm not too late.", Yurei said in relief to Grand Elder Moori.
"Hey! I was gonna eat that!", 21 shouted.
Yurei only glared at Towa and Mira angrily before speaking.
"If any of you so much as lay a finger on him, I'll kill all of you!"
"Yurei! Glad you could make it.", Grand Elder Moori exclaimed.
16 grinned at Yurei as Mira knew right away who it was that punched 21 away from Grand Elder Moori.
"Towa, that's the one who's been interfering with us all along."
21, having overheard that, was really mad.
"Wait. You mean this pest you told me about was the same pest that barged in on my meal?!", shouted 21.
"Looks like it, 21. Although, it is clear that he does not know any of us. That being said, I'd have to assume that this time's Yurei is not the one we're looking for. Either way, we've been making things interesting, too. What a disappointment."
Yurei remained adamant in thwarting them.
"Imagine how disappointed you'll be when I stop you!"
Mira felt that this timeline's Yurei is overzealous.
"Hmph. You must be very confident in your skills. Am I right? Show it to me..."
Yurei only spoke in anger.
"You want my full power? Fine!", shouted Yurei.
Then, he bellowed as he turned Super Saiyan Azure, surprising both Towa, 16, Moori, and 21, while it only intrigued Mira slightly.
"I'll hold him off! You need to get those dragon balls out of here and get to safety!", Yurei urged Moori.
"Y-Yes!", Moori agreed.
Then, 16 agreed to help Moori out.
"I'll get the dragon balls away from Towa and Mira!", shouted 16.
Yurei grew puzzled but then somehow knew that he simply wanted to help and grinned.
"Thank you."
16 nodded to Yurei with a smile before he helped Moori escort the Dragon Balls away. After that, Yurei charged toward Mira, who charged toward him before both clashed with each other for about 5 seconds before Yurei gained the upper hand and kicked him away. After that, Mira recovered quickly and then charged toward him, only to miss him as he vanished before he appeared behind Mira and kicked him in the back, knocking him away as Towa watched.
"Inconceivable! How can he be that strong?!", Towa exclaimed.
Then, Mira quickly recovered and prepared his Galick Beam Cannon move before launching it at him, only for Yurei to guard against the blast. After a moment, the blast dissipated, revealing to Mira that he guarded against it well as Yurei brushed his own arms quickly to clear the dust.
End Super Music: "Fierce Battle against a Mighty Foe"
"Seriously? Is that all? What a disappointment.", Mira said.
"Hmph. I'm just getting started.", Yurei responded.
However, Towa called him off.
"Hold on, Mira..."
Frankly, that puzzled the present Yurei.
"What?", asked Yurei.
Then, Towa turned to him and "interrogated" him.
"Say, who's supporting you-who's backing you up? You can't have done this on your own... Travel through time like this... just to fight us."
As puzzled as he was, the present Yurei did not care to answer.
"As if I would ever tell you even if I did know that."
Hearing just one word puzzled the demon scientist.
"'If'? Oh, wait. You may look like him, but you're not the one we're after."
That puzzled the present Yurei even further.
"What do you mean?!", exclaimed the present Yurei.
"So... playing coy, huh? No matter. Let's leave them for now, Mira."
She then turned to Mira, who scoffed before she spoke next.
"You don't mind, right? This timeline's Yurei, he's nothing right now. I can't extract much energy from him anyway. For now, that is."
"Hmph...", Mira scoffed.
That greatly puzzled the other Yurei more than anything.
"What? Tell me. How do you know my name?"
"The answer to that is not something you need to know.", Mira replied.
The present Yurei growled at him just before Towa spoke.
"Well... let's move on back to the future."
The present Yurei grew puzzled as Towa and Mira turned their backs on him.
"What? Did you just say 'the future'?", asked the present Yurei.
"Hehehe... I'll let you live for now. But... get in our way again, and we'll have you erased."
That only angered him.
"You're out of your mind if you think I'll stand by and let you hurt those innocent people!", the present Yurei shouted.
Then, just as he charged toward them and bellowed, 21 only giggled as she put her hand on Towa's shoulder.
"Until next time.", 21 mocked.
Then, suddenly, 21, Towa and Mira suddenly vanished, catching him off-guard.
"What?!"
Then, he quickly halted himself the way Nappa did when Vegeta shouted at him for disobeying his orders to wait for three hours before looking around. After he did, he no longer sensed them.
"Looks like they're gone.", surmised the present Yurei.
Then, later, he flew to a nearby area and then turned to Grand Elder Moori and 16.
"Bad news. Towa, 21, and Mira. They vanished without even a trace."
16 lowered his head in apparent sadness.
"21..."
Yurei noticed 16's plight and wanted to know more about it.
"What's wrong?", Yurei asked.
16 then turned to Yurei and explained.
"I'm afraid that 21 is lost to her own hunger."
Yurei understood the pain of losing someone they care about and put his hand on his shoulder and grinned.
"Don't worry. Whoever you lost, we can bring right back. And we can do that with the Dragon Balls. Right, Grand Elder?"
Moori nodded as he grinned.
"Yes, Yurei. That is correct."
Later, the Namekian Dragon, Porunga, was summoned from the Namekian Dragon Balls and towered above Yurei, 16, and Grand Elder Moori.
"I shall grant you any three wishes. You may speak them now!", Porunga bellowed.
Yurei then turned to Moori.
"Okay, first things first. We need to save whoever this 21 is. But first, who are you and what do you know about 21?"
16 was willing to comply and explained.
"My name... is Android 16."
Then, Yurei thought back on the Cell Games from earlier, due to his intensive meditation, which allowed him to behold the events that took place.
"Android 16. Wait. I know you. You're the guy who helped Goku fight Cell eight years ago! I thought something was familiar about you. So, tell me. Why are you so intent on saving her even after she threatened to turn Grand Elder Moori into candy?"
16 grinned a bit before he decided to explain some things about 21.
"A long time ago, during her early stages of creation, she was being designed to be the strongest fighter. However, some of her cells went berserk and unleashed something more dangerous: her hunger."
Yurei quickly got the gist of what he meant, considering what 16 told him before they decided to summon Porunga.
"I get it. So, originally, she was a good person, but now... now her own hunger is controlling her."
16 nodded before Yurei grew more determined to save her as he turned to Grand Elder Moori.
"Look. I said we'll bring her back and I meant it. That being said, do you think you can separate 21 and her hunger completely?"
Moori nodded before he made the wish in Namekian language. After that, Porunga's eyes glowed before he spoke.
"I have separated 21 from her hunger, which manifested itself into a living being."
Yurei scoffed with a grin before Porunga spoke further.
"Now, then. What is your second wish?", asked Porunga.
Then, Yurei thought things through concerning the encounter with Towa and Mira.
"Towa and Mira have very dark energies compared to all the others Goku fought. The pair together may even be worse than them. But I think that if all of us team up with Goku, we may be able to stop them altogether.", Yurei said to himself.
Then, Yurei turned to Moori.
"Moori, I'm sorry to ask this of you, but can you resurrect the enemies Goku defeated as allies in their own way? Oh, except for the evil Buu. He can stay there."
Moori widened his eyes from that wish, but eventually understood the plight and hesitantly agreed.
"Understood."
Then, he spoke the wish in the Namekian tongue before Porunga spoke.
"Very well, then."
After that, Porunga granted the wish as his eyes glowed red.
Elsewhere, in Frieza's flower garden, in the cocoon, a halo suddenly disappears above Frieza's head, puzzling him.
"Huh?", puzzled Frieza as did the fairies and enchanted stuffed animals.
Back on New Namek, Porunga stated that the wish was granted.
"Your second wish is granted! Now, what is your third and final wish?", Porunga asked.
Yurei noticed that they currently aren't present at the moment and turned to Moori.
"Oh. By the way, Moori. Can you ask Porunga to teleport both the good 21 and the resurrected fighters here at this very spot on New Namek?", Yurei asked as he pointed to a spot in front of the Namekian Dragon Balls.
Moori then grinned before he nodded.
"Why, yes."
Then, Moori spoke the third and final wish to Porunga in the Namekian tongue before Porunga responded.
"As you wish, it shall be done.", Porunga proclaimed as his eyes glowed red.
After that, the good 21, along with the resurrected fighters, appeared by 16's side, for the good 21's case, while for everyone else, they appeared behind him. The good 21 looked as if she was bracing herself with her eyes closed. Then, eventually, the good 21 opened her eyes slowly and then turned around to notice Porunga, much to her surprise, before she turned to notice the puzzled Frieza, Cell, Raditz, Nappa, Captain Ginyu, and his four teammates.
"W-what is going on? And why are they here?", 21 asked.
Then, 16 spoke to the good 21.
"We will explain later, 21."
Then, 21 turned to 16 and sighed in relief with a smile before hugging him.
"16... Thank you."
Then, 16 pointed to Yurei.
"I did not do this alone."
As 21 turned to Yurei, he grinned while 16 explained further.
"His name is Yurei. He fought against Towa and Mira earlier."
21 grew puzzled.
"R-really?"
That was when Porunga decided to leave.
"I shall take my leave. Farewell!", proclaimed Porunga before he went up into the sky, dragging the dragon balls up into the air as they swirled up before they scattered all over the world.
21 wanted to know more as did Frieza and the others.
"Okay, can someone tell me what is going on here?", 21 asked.
"You know, that is just the kind of thing I wish to know as well.", Frieza concurred.
"Although, it is nice to be back from the dead.", Cell complimented.
"Yeah, you got that right.", Nappa agreed.
"It's almost like being reborn all over again, but this time, in a more literal sense!", Ginyu concurred.
"Though, I must say. It feels rather odd being revived here of all places.", Raditz surmised.
Yurei then walked up to Frieza and spoke.
"I'm sure you guys have a lot of questions, but I'll explain everything one step at a time."
Frankly, Frieza knew what he is, although he didn't seem to know his name.
"You're a Saiyan, aren't you? Then, why, may I ask, did you bring us back to life?", Frieza asked.
"And who might you be?", Cell added.
"And what business do you have, reviving us?", asked Raditz.
Then, Yurei gave a sort of serious glare before responding.
"For now, let's just say I need help. From all of you."

Meanwhile, in the 10th Universe, Zamasu opened up the teapot and noticed the crest of Universe 7 glowing bright blue before his eyes, surprising him with only widened eyes as a response. He then put the lid back on and poured some tea as Gowasu looked through his crystal ball, overseeing Planet Babari.
At Planet Babari, a sort of humanoid dinosaur creature with blue eyes walked along the mountain and turned to see another like him. He then spoke before he walked toward him.
"Hey, you! You wanna fight?!", one Babarian asked.
"No, no. We're not here to fight.", another replied.
"That sounded like a 'yes'!", the Babarian retorted before he stepped closer.
Meanwhile, Zamasu got his master's attention as he set down a tea cup for his master before Gowasu looked back up to see him.
"Master Gowasu."
As Zamasu sat down, Gowasu drank the tea and gave his honest opinion.
"Tea tastes a bit more magical today."
Zamasu stopped for a bit before smiling, sitting down, and explaining.
"Same kind as I always use, Supreme Kai."
Then, Gowasu showed his true feelings for it as he smiled.
"This is because something symbolic happened between you and Goku during the spar, isn't it?"
Zamasu smiled as he continued onward.
"As a matter of fact, yes. That must be it."
End Super Music: "A Bad Premontion"
Just then, they heard a shout from the crystal ball.
"You've made a powerful enemy today! Oh, yeah!", the Babarian shouted through the crystal ball.
Zamasu wanted to know what was going on.
"What's that?"
Gowasu then proceeded to explain.
"I am monitoring a planet known as Babari. Not long ago, a species of sentient bipeds evolved there. I'm watching to see what becomes of them."
As he explained, the Babarian was clashing fists with another repeatedly as the conversation continued between the two creatures fighting each other.
"Let me tell you something, fellow Babarian! Malice respects you!"
"That sounds...agreeable.", another responded.
Needless to say, Gowasu was quite intrigued.
"Mmm. Their violence is troubling, yet it appears as though they were having a friendly spar. A rivalry of sorts."
Zamasu had an idea to see more of the species.
"Would it not be wise to shed some light on this, before they create more roadblocks?"
Gowasu was quite puzzled about what Zamasu was suggesting.
"Hm? What do you mean 'shed some light on this'?"
"I mean study the entire species and their way of life, of course."
Gowasu wanted to know the reason.
"Not that I speak against it, but I have to ask why. We have been doing it since Time began."
Zamasu knew that he could've overstepped and decided to explain as the Babarians clasp each other by the right hand and then do a fist bump.
"Oh. Of course. What I meant was have a closer look at them on Planet Babari. After all, what should we do? What's the alternative? Even if a millennia passed, do you believe these savages will ever reach enlightenment? Not that I doubt this good example that states that they can."
Gowasu then thought of an idea.
"Fine. If you wish to see them close-up and know for sure, then why don't we take a look?"
Zamasu was quite curious.
"A look?"
As Zamasu stood up, Gowasu walked into the temple.
Eventually, as Zamasu and Gowasu entered, they found themselves in a bizarre space. Then, he swiped his hand to the right, creating a red wall before it revealed all sorts of cabinets as far as the eye can see. Then, Gowasu opened the cabinet containing the box with the 6 Time Rings inside. Zamasu was quite piqued about the box from earlier.
"I'm intrigued. Isn't that the box the Destroyer and attendant from Universe 7 came to check?"
Gowasu replied as he opened the box.
"Indeed. Behold, the Time Rings. As the name suggests, these bands allow one to move beyond the normal constraints of time."
Zamasu practically exhaled in surprise about this.
Chapter 2
Play Super Music: "Reparation"
At Planet Babari, Zamasu and Gowasu suddenly appeared before both looked down to see another pair of two Babarians going at it, but through a more friendly spar, in the form of an argument.
"Vexx could go for some food right about now.", Vexx states.
"For once, you say something that makes sense.", the other Babarian responded.
Frankly, Zamasu is more curious than disgusted.
"Disgusting. And yet, somewhat curious.", Zamasu commented.
Then, Gowasu looked down toward his silver Time Ring.
"I hope a thousand years from now, these creatures of Babari are not so shackled to their primitive drives.", Gowasu stated.
Zamasu wanted to know if what he heard was true.
"So that artifact actually allows the wearer to travel through time, master?", Zamasu asked.
"Yes. But there are distinct limitations.", Gowasu replied before explaining. "The rings take us to the future and then always bring us back."
Zamasu wanted to know about another possibility.
"What about going to the past?", Zamasu asked.
Gowasu then explained the limits.
"That is not the purpose of the rings. And even if they could, such movement is strictly forbidden. Interacting with history is complex and fraught with danger."
He explained further as he turned to his apprentice.
"You remember the four emerald-colored rings that were inside that box?", Gowasu asked.
"Of course.", Zamasu replied.
"Each was created by a significant change in history, which has produced a separate timeline. An alternate reality."
Zamasu grew positively curious and yet somewhat furious at that statement.
"What does that mean? 'An alternate reality'?", Zamasu asked.
Gowasu then explained that too.
"It is possible to affect the flow of time in a way that creates a parallel stream. And judging from the bands in that box, this has happened in recent years. For mercy's sake. What sort of fools would attempt such madness? But I digress. My point is the Time Ring can take us to the Babari's future."
Zamasu agreed to that.
"Indeed."
Then, Gowasu decided to point out one more thing.
"Or should I say, it can take me.", Gowasu pointed out.
Zamasu gasped from hearing this before Gowasu explained the detail further.
"As a precaution, the Time Rings only transport those with a full rank of Supreme Kai, and have the correct Potara Earring to prove it. Mere apprentices like yourself do not qualify."
Zamasu looked back on his earrings and then remembered the Sapphire-colored ring that appeared earlier.
"But what about the Sapphire-colored ring that appeared in the box earlier, master?"
Gowasu then gave an honest answer.
"Frankly, we never thought such a ring could appear, but legend has it that it not only allows its worthy user to travel to any and every point in history, in an effort to make a better future for us all, but also appears only when the coming prophecy of old is nigh."
Zamasu grew curious about the coming prophecy.
"'The coming prophecy?' What is that?"
"It is a legend that reads, 'He who bears the Time Ring as blue as Divinity shall surely lead the strongest army from the 6th, 7th, and 11th Universes against a corrupt evil in the future and become the Ultimate Savior of the Multiverse'.", Gowasu replied.
Zamasu then had a thought.
"Hold on. You don't mean to tell me that Yurei fits that description, master?"
"It seems like he does. He even had the blue Time Ring on his index finger before another one appeared in the box.", Gowasu stated.
Then, Zamasu remembered one little problem and spoke to his master.
"So I can't come with you?", asked Zamasu.
Gowasu only laughed in response before he took out one of his own earrings and held it out for Zamasu before he spoke.
"You may borrow one of mine. I will promote you to Supreme Kai, temporarily, of course."
Zamasu felt slightly touched and bowed before he spoke.
"I am humbled, master."
End Super Music: "Reparation"
Then, Zamasu grabbed the earring and took out his orange ones before putting the green earring on his left ear as Gowasu and Zamasu talked to each other.
"Just make sure you put it on your left ear. I trust you know why.", Gowasu warned.
"If I put it on my right ear while it's pair is in your left, we would merge together, correct?", Zamasu guessed.
"Yes.", Gowasu replied. "It would combine us together into a single, far more powerful Kai. But the transformation is permanent. How about it? Want to join with me forever?", Gowasu joked.
Zamasu tensed in fear at that question and looked away a bit as he gave a nervous grin.
"Eeh! Uh... No thanks. Perhaps some other time, master.", Zamasu replied.
Then, Gowasu laughed at his joke and his apprentice's reply before holding his right arm out.
"All right. Touch the ring and say 'one thousand.' We'll travel that many years ahead.", Gowasu stated.
Then, Zamasu grunted as he nodded before he placed his fist squarely with Gowasu's, touching the ring before both master and pupil alike spoke in unison.
"One thousand!"
Then, a big bubble emerged and shielded the two before many rainbow-colored stars began to emerge and swirl around the bubble top and bottom, astonishing Zamasu with a gasp before they begin to stop swirling around and vanish, returning them to Planet Babari, but in the future 1,000 years ahead, just before the bubble disappeared. Then, both Zamasu and Gowasu looked down to see the results.
"Let's see.", Gowasu stated.
Then, they spotted many Babarians having their own fire and shelter.
"Look! Fire and shelter. They're starting to civilize."
However, he was sort of proven wrong as the two Babarians bumped into each other.
"What? What?! You want a fight?!", one Babarian exclaimed before another responded.
"Hmph. Savages.", the second responded before another struck with a club, only for the first to defend quickly.
"I don't know what you're saying, but I know it's not good!", the first Babarian shouted before he tried to strike with his fist, only for the same defense result, eventually looping for about three rounds before another Babarian got in-between them and stopped the fight as he pushed the two Babarians from each other, knocking them to the ground, although they managed to sit up quickly.
"Time out! Time out! Everybody take a deep breath and settle down! We should start by sitting down. Then, we should use our inside voices. Please?"
Then, the two Babarians did a criss-cross applesauce position and calmed down quickly, much to Gowasu's amazement.
"Aaaah."
Zamasu, in his own way, had the same felling in his thoughts.
"How very interesting.", Zamasu thought.
Then, he suddenly sensed three dark energies and turned another direction only to gasp from seeing none other than Towa, Mira, and what appears to be a humanoid creature with the same appearance as Android 21 for the hair and face and arm-covers. However, her hair appears to be bleach white while her skin is colored pink. She even had pointy ears, fangs, baggy white pants, golden earrings on her ears, and two gold rings on each of her wrists and a gold ring around her neck. But what was most troubling of all was her red eyes with black sclera.
"The denizens of the Demon Realm? What are they doing here and what sort of demon is that with them?", Zamasu thought.
Meanwhile, back on Universe 7's Earth in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, in its glacier stage, Vegeta was training his future son.
"You haven't trained me since back when Cell was on the loose, remember?"
Vegeta only replied bluntly.
"Of course, I do, but I'm not keeping some kind of diary under my pillow."
Future Trunks then thought to himself as he flashed back to the last time he trained with him.
"Well, I remember it, too, Father. A year in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber with you, I'll always remember that."
In the flashback, Future Trunks was panting out of breath when Vegeta spoke.
"Guess you're not just useless garbage, after all.", Vegeta admitted, puzzling his future son.
"As gifted a warrior as I clearly am, it would have taken me a little longer to reach this new level of power on my own. By that, I mean transcending Super Saiyan.", Vegeta stated.
This fact quickly surprised his future son.
"Wait, what?"
Then, Vegeta bellowed as he began to reach said level of power, eventually getting a bit bulky.
"See? This is the glorious power that goes beyond Super Saiyan. This is Super Vegeta!", Vegera proclaimed.
Future Trunks stammered in his flashback at the sight. But, in the present, Future Trunks took a deep breath before turning Super Saiyan 2 and speaking to his father.
"There, Dad, you see? No need to hold back! You can spar with me at full strength. Use your Super Saiyan 3, like Goku did. Or even Super Saiyan Azure."
Vegeta grew puzzled.
"Wait. 'Super Saiyan Azure?'"
Future Trunks then decided to explain.
"Well, originally, it was known as 'Super Saiyan Blue', but Mom thought it sounded a bit too simple."
Vegeta only chuckled a bit before responding.
"Well, Trunks, Whis actually came up with the original name, and apart from that, you were actually spot-on."
Future Trunks grew puzzled himself.
"R-really?", puzzled Future Trunks.
"That's right.", Vegeta responded bluntly.
To prove this, Vegeta transformed into the newly named "Super Saiyan Azure" before Future Trunks' eyes.
"N-No way!"
"It seems you were on the mark there. Good job.", Vegeta smirked.
Meanwhile, Beerus and Whis were hovering up to the lookout when his staff beeped before Whis answered and saw Vegeta in Super Saiyan Azure Form.
"Oh, my. It seems like Vegeta is starting his match already.", Whis told Beerus.
Yurei and 21, having overheard this, noticed the training match.
"It looks like Vegeta's training him.", Yurei stated.
"I wonder how this fight could turn out.", 21 puzzled.
Beerus, however, only cared about getting there quickly.
"I don't care, Whis! How long would it take before we get to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber?!", shouted Beerus.
Whis only grumbled before he noticed that they are actually getting very close.
"Oh! Actually not much longer, my lord. We happen to be just arriving.", Whis assured Beerus.
The impatient Destroyer sighed in relief.
"Finally! Sweet relief.", Beerus sighed.
Meanwhile, inside, Vegeta, in Super Saiyan Azure form, was smirking at his son, who had his own thoughts.
"I can't sense his energy. But I can feel this power in the air-it's overwhelming! What is this?", Future Trunks thought.
Then, he flashed back to what Vegeta said earlier.
"Kakarot's true battle power is a great deal higher than that."
That statement surprised Future Trunks.
"What?", Future Trunks puzzled.
"And let me state for the record, the same goes for mine as well.", Vegeta continued.
"How? What have you guys been through?", Future Trunks asked.
"Hah. Quite a bit.", Vegeta answered.
"Could it be?", asked Future Trunks.
Vegeta continued his smug expression.
"What happened to all that machismo, boy?", Vegeta joked.
Future Trunks then had his own thoughts.
"That must be it. Father and Goku have discovered how to summon this blue energy from the gods. This... divine power. If that's the case, then I may have this 'Ultra Instinct' to rely on if things go south.", Future Trunks thought.
Vegeta then raised one finger from his hand as he spoke.
"Ha! Soiling yourself before we begin? All right, fine. I'll give you a handicap. If you can manage to land a single blow on me, we'll call you the winner.", Vegeta negotiated.
Future Trunks, however, was still not planning on holding back.
"You'd be a fool to underestimate me.", Future Trunks warned.
Vegeta only dismissed that as tough talk.
"I'm glad to see you can talk tough, at least.", Vegeta admitted.
Play Super Music: "Heroic Battle"
Then, Future Trunks bellowed before he went to his bulky form that failed to defeat Cell, causing Vegeta to growl before he spoke angrily.
"Still relying on that bulky, lumbering transformation? You disappoint me!", Vegeta yelled.
Then, he charged toward him from opposite sides as Future Trunks kept close sight of him.
"He fell for it.", Future Trunks thought.
Then, just as Vegeta was about to land a blow, Future Trunks went back to his normal Super Saiyan 2 Form and dodged the blow quite well, surprising Vegeta.
"So that lame form was just a ploy to draw me in and catch me off guard?", thought Vegeta.
Then, as the fight continued and the snowy wind blew harder, Future Trunks tried to kick Vegeta and then tried to punch him, only to miss him and then get blocked before Vegeta put his hand on his future son's chin and began tilting him backwards.
"Grading on a hundred-point scale...", Vegeta said before pounding his own future son into the icy ground, breaking the ice and causing his face to end up in cold water.
"...I'd give you a thirty at best.", Vegeta finished.
Then, he lifted his son up before kicking him away toward the frozen icebergs, crashing him through countless icebergs.
At that moment, Beerus, Whis, Yurei, and 21 entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
"Yoo-hoo! We're here!", Beerus shouted.
Yurei and 21 were astonished.
"Oh, wow. So, that's the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, huh?", Yurei reacted.
"I never thought it would look so beautiful.", 21 commented.
Whis shivered at the icy winds right now.
"Brrrr. It's f-f-f-fr-freezing in here, my lord!", Whis complained.
Beerus, however, felt differently.
"Aw, don't be such a baby, Whis. You're the one who decided to go there in the first place! Besides, it doesn't seem that cold to me.", Beerus retorted.
However, at that moment, the snow popped from where Future Trunks crashed through an iceberg nearest to them before it wound up landing on Beerus, who could only scream in panic before an entire pile landed on him, amusing Whis to help take his mind off the cold while Beerus blinked his eyes in surprise.
"Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho! Oh, my. That certainly takes my mind off the cold, Lord Beerus.", Whis laughed.
Beerus only yelled angrily after a short growl, causing the snow to fall off most of his body while the snow still covered his pants.
"Will you stop laughing at me, Whis?! We're here to find the older Trunks, not play around in snow!", Beerus reprimanded.
Whis ignored Beerus' apoplexy and noticed Future Trunks being pummeled by Vegeta, mostly noticeable by two piles of snow erupting from the icy ground.
"It looks like we've already found them.", Whis stated.
Yurei saw this and then turned to 21.
"Yeah, no kidding. Come one, 21. Let's go.", Yurei said.
21 then nodded before she and Yurei ran over.
Meanwhile, Vegeta was continuing to beat his son as Future Trunks thought to himself.
"He's way too strong!", thought Future Trunks.
Then, with one final push, Future Trunks was sent toward one final iceberg before the Universe 7 symbol glowed on his back right after he dropped out of Super Saiyan 2 Form rather quickly. Then, he began to emit a silver-blue aura, identical to Goku's from his spar with Zamasu. After that, Future Trunks' feet planted themselves firmly against the wall of the iceberg, only leaving small cracks, surprising father and son alike. Then, Future Trunks quickly got the gist with what he needed to do and propelled himself toward Vegeta, who quickly got surprised, as the cracks got bigger and split apart the iceberg into icy debris as a result. Future Trunks then bellowed with a deeper voice in the background as he charged toward Vegeta. Then, not long after, he struck Vegeta in the chest, attaining a glimpse of Super Saiyan Azure and becoming surprised the way Goku and Vegeta first got their glimpse. Then, just like that, it was Vegeta's turn to be knocked back before he landed against the icy ground. Beerus and Whis were quite surprised about this development as were Yurei and 21.
"What the..", Yurei started.
"Where did he get this much power?!", 21 exclaimed.
End Super Music: "Heroic Battle"
"What is going on today, Whis?! First Yurei awakens Ultra Instinct, then Goku, and now Vegeta's future son?! What is this world coming to?! I mean, who's next in line, Android 21?!", Beerus shouted.
"I'm just as surprised as you, my lord!", Whis whispered.
As Future Trunks panted, he then lost the silver-blue aura and the symbol on his back before he looked at his hand to notice that tingling sensation on his right hand, let alone the fact that the pain in his chest is no longer present.
"What the? What's with this sensation? And this pain in my chest. It was almost like it was nothing."
Then, Future Trunks remembered his father and looked up at him and dashed over to him as he stood right back up.
"Why, you! Uh-", Vegeta started.
Then, he noticed Future Trunks standing tall.
"So that counts as landing a blow, right?", Future Trunks asked.
Then, Future Trunks turned to face Vegeta and spoke further.
"I guess that means I win."
Then, he laughed as Vegeta stared with surprise. Whis then spoke to Future Trunks.
"Congratulations are in order. Well done.", Whis congratulated.
Yurei and 21 spoke next.
"Yeah, Trunks. I never thought you'd make it this far.", Yurei concurred.
"Yeah, that was amazing!", 21 added.
Future Trunks then turned to see Beerus and Whis and then Yurei and 21 before he bowed before Beerus.
"Oh. Hey, guys. It's great to see you. Hello, Lord Beerus and Whis."
Beerus was willing to accept this greeting.
"Hello, kid. Whis has something to say to you.", Beerus stated.
Future Trunks lifted his head up a bit as he asked.
"And what's that?"
Whis then chuckled a bit before he stated his opinion.
"Well, despite the fact that you broke a taboo, not only were you careful about it, but you also helped Goku and his comrades without even asking for anything in return."
Future Trunks felt it was nothing.
"Well, yeah. So?", asked Future Trunks.
"Well, obviously, those are tell-tale signs of a true hero. After all, what else would they be?", Whis added as Beerus grumbled a bit and walked over to Piccolo.
Future Trunks blushed from hearing the opinion before he responded.
"Thanks.", grinned Future Trunks.
Meanwhile, Beerus walked over to Piccolo.
"Excuse me, Namekian.", Beerus said. Piccolo then turned to see Lord Beerus and retorted.
"With all due respect, Lord Beerus, my name is Piccolo. I suggest you use it."
Beerus cleared his throat, understood that and then spoke.
"Oh. So, that's your name, huh? Anyway, if there is one technique I'd be willing to teach you, it's the 'Destruction' technique.", Beerus admitted.
Piccolo grew puzzled from hearing this.
"But why would you teach me that? I thought you were against me being the candidate to be the Destroyer for this Universe.", Piccolo puzzled.
"Oh, don't be ridiculous. I am against it. I'm only teaching you that, because Whis, here, has been annoying me with a silly notion of you being the next Destroyer. If he ever does this again, it might be the only way to shut him up.", Beerus explained.
Piccolo widened his eyes in surprise and then grinned.
"Huh? That badly, huh? I'll think about it."
Meanwhile, Future Mai was walking over to Future Trunks.
"Hey, Trunks!", shouted Future Mai.
Future Trunks then turned to Future Mai.
"Huh? What is it, Mai?", asked Future Trunks.
"This.", replied Future Mai before she pressed her lips against Future Trunks', surprising him, just as much as Beerus, Whis, Yurei, 21, Vegeta, and Piccolo while Gohan cheered for him.
"Whoo-hoo! Way to go, Trunks!", Gohan shouted.
Then, as soon as Future Trunks and Future Mai removed lips from each other, he wanted to know something.
"Um, as nice as it was, why did you kiss me, Mai?", asked Future Trunks.
"This is something to motivate you.", Future Mai answered.
Future Trunks then blushed for a bit before he smiled and gave a look of determination.
"Thanks, Mai.", said Future Trunks.
Future Mai nodded in response as Future Trunks turned to Vegeta and spoke to him.
"You hear that? I will get stronger. Stronger than Black, and stronger than you."
Vegeta only stood up by himself and walked out of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber with a grin, but not before he replied back.
"Hmph. Glad to see you're making good progress."
Then, Future Mai gave a confused look.
"Okay?"
Future Trunks gave thoughts to himself with a grin and a bow.
"Thank you, Father. For everything."
Then, seeing this power at Display from Future Trunks, 21 had something she wanted to share to him and Yurei.
"You know? I have something I want to show you guys.", 21 stated.
Future Trunks grew puzzled as did Yurei.
"Really?", Future Trunks asked.
"Well, what is it?", Yurei puzzled.
"Let's just say that it's going to be a nice surprise to see me like this.", 21 replied.
Yurei grew even more puzzled.
"Like 'this?' What do you mean?", Yurei asked.
Beerus and Whis, however, knew what she was getting at.
"Wait a minute. Does that mean..", Beerus figured.
"It appears she is about to reveal her true form.", Whis guessed.
Then, at that moment, 21 gave a grin before she powered up, blowing away the winds from all directions, circling around her. Then, 21 mewed as her shirt began to rip apart, exposing her bare chest with only a black crop top covering it before she grew a tail similar to Frieza's while her skin turned pink and her long auburn hair turned beach white. Then, she spun around before she was now wearing her baggy white pants with a thin yellow belt and perfectly fits her waist along with two golden rings in each wrist as well as one golden ring around her neck and two golden earrings, not unlike the perpetrator with Towa and Mira earlier, who were only sighted earlier by Zamasu in Babari's Future, but with two major differences: her pure energy with no sign of evil, and her normal blue eyes.
Future Trunks and Yurei stood surprised with their mouths agape.
"So, what do you think?", 21 asked.
Then, both Future Trunks and Yurei responded.
"That...actually looks nice.", said the two Saiyans in unison.
Then, the Destroyer and attendant concurred.
"Yeah. I agree with you right there.", Beerus agreed.
"In fact, it's almost as beautiful as a rose petal."
21 gave a blush and responded.
"Thank you very much.", 21 thanked.
Future Mai then voiced her reaction.
"Maybe I should wear a crop top like that, too.", Future Mai teased.
Future Trunks grew puzzled as Piccolo grew adamant about it.
"Wh-what?", exclaimed Future Trunks.
"Not in this weather you won't, at least not until your training is complete."
Future Mai giggled nervously from Piccolo's response.
"Yeah, sure thing."
Then, Beerus and Whis turned to each other.
"All right, my lord. I think it's time to head back home.", Whis announced.
Then, Beerus stretched himself as he responded.
"Well, then! It's about time!"
Then, outside the chamber, Beerus and Whis get enveloped in a bright yellow light before leaving Earth with Yurei and 21 inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
"All right, then. How about we all train some more, huh?", 21 asked, puzzling Yurei.
"Whoa. Since when do you like training so much? Not that I mind.", Yurei asked.
"Since just now.", 21 bluntly responded.
Later, on Beerus' world, Whis was stir-frying some food for him.
"Here we go. Who's a good stir fry?", Whis joked.
However, Beerus was growing impatient.
"Aren't you done yet?", Beerus asked.
"Can't rush perfection, my lord! I'm almost done!", Whis responded.
Then, Whis' staff suddenly flashed and beeped, prompting Beerus to call him to get the staff.
"Whis!", shouted Beerus.
His attendant, however, was busy at the moment.
"Uh, I'm terribly sorry, but, um, would you mind answering that for me? I am knuckle deep in sauce.", Whis asked.
Then, Beerus moved over to the staff and then picked it up before speaking.
"He can't talk right now. Call him back, would ya?"
Then, the staff glowed and moved to the center of the table, surprising him. But what was truly shocking was the revelation of who was calling Beerus, for it turned out to be Grand Zeno. In fact, Beerus panicked with a shriek as he fell off his chair and scooted backwards.
"Grand Zeno, sire!", Beerus exclaimed.
Grand Zeno only stared with a smile before Beerus panickedly stood up quickly and ran over to Grand Zeno to get in a close enough view before he bowed, breaking off part of his table in the process.
"Yay, we praise thee, noble person! With all our pleases and our thank-yous- Oh, man, am I quoting Goku?", Beerus greeted.
Then, Whis appeared next to Beerus and saw Grand Zeno.
"Oh, Grand Zeno, what an unexpected honor! I hope you're having a splendid day.", Whis greeted.
Zeno then responded.
"Uh... It's an okay day, I guess. I'm calling because I want you to arrange something for me, you see.", Grand Zeno stated.
Beerus nervously lifted his head up a bit.
"And what would that be, Grand Leader?", Beerus asked.
Grand Zeno then revealed his request.
"Well, I'd like to see Goku and the Yurei from the future, you see?", Grand Zeno answered.
Then, Beerus and Whis yelled in panic at the mention of Goku's name from Zeno, considering what catastrophes could occur, especially since he must've found out about the Time Travel business.
A/N: Hello, everyone! I'm back. Now, before you say anything, I thought that the Babarians could be like the apoplexians, Vexx & Mallice, from "Ben 10: Omniverse" while a couple more are similar to the Luodans, Caitiff & Poltroon while the 5th one was similar to Gravattack, just to twist things up a bit. Also, I humbly apologize to the crew of "Ben 10: Omniverse". I do not own any similarities shown form the Babarians. As for that part with 21 on top of goku, I figured I could put in some more light comedy for that. Anyhoo, that is it for today, but I will continue to keep taking as many suggestions as I can and help incorporate the most recent suggestions for the next episode.
