Chapter 14 Dragon Universe

"I told you, Whis already had enough people to ferry around the multiverse with just the two of us." Vegeta stated. He and Goku had just agreed to take Sting and Rogue with them, but unfortunately for Natsu, he was not part of the accord.

"Yeah, Vegeta's right, unless Whis can make that cube that Champa once used, maybe we could but-" Goku said, before stopping himself trying to finish his thought. Not that it made Natsu feel any better about the deal.

"Oh, come on!" Natsu yelled, "There's gotta be some way I can come with you guys!"

"Well, I may have something that may remedy your situation, Natsu." Whis then cut in. The three Dragon Slayers and two Saiyans turned to eye the pale angel floating towards them.

"What do you mean by remedy?" Vegeta then asked.

"Well, remember Champa's Hexahedron?" Whis asked, to which, the two Saiyans nodded. "Good to know that your memories still serve you well. But did you ever see how the Hexahedron was made?" The two Saiyans looked at each other, confusion plastered on their faces.

"You know, come to think of it, I always thought that either you or your sister used those fancy staffs that you guys always carry." Goku replied.

"Well, we're gonna get there, but let's not skip ahead." Whis said.

"Well, what's your point then?" Vegeta demanded.

"Nice to see that your patience is still the same, Vegeta." Whis replied. He then cleared his throat. "Anyway, the thing about the Hexahedron is that it's actually one of the very few things that my staff cannot fully replicate." "However, I can make a ship that can travel throughout the multiverses, and it will be vastly more spacious than the little cube, it will even have the basic facilities needed for our trip." Natsu's eyes lit up at the news, as he then excitedly zips towards Whis's position.

"You for real!" Natsu yelled, making Whis chuckle at the mage's excitement.

"Very much so," Whis replied, but then, he shifts his gaze to the two Saiyans, and his expression shifts to a more serious one. "Though I have to warn you two, the top speed of this ship is nowhere near the speed of the Hexahedron. In fact, we'll be lucky if we breach this universe's barrier in four hours, much less the multiverse's barrier."

"Hmph, very well." Vegeta said, "YOU! NATSU!" Vegeta then barked, shocking Natsu out of his excitement and drawing his full attention. "Go get anyone that you know is strong on to come with us!" Vegeta demanded, "And make sure that they're fighters!"

"You got it, Boss!" Natsu yelled back, before rushing off to find his guild mates.

"AND BE QUICK ABOUT IT!" Vegeta yelled again. "Kakarot!" Vegeta barked, gaining Goku's attention.

"What is it?" Goku asked, placing a stern look upon his face.

"You go get Lord Beerus while Whis prepares the ship." Vegeta ordered. Goku just then, remembers that Beerus was with them the entire time.

"Oh yeah, that's right, Beerus. Where is he, anyway?"

Beerus's fuzzy vision alongside his unstable balance was a rather unpleasant way to regain consciousness after losing all muscle control, thanks to Whis. Speaking of which, where the hell is that pale, blue bastard? Beerus asked, internally.

"Oh, there you are Lord Beerus!" A voice called out. Beerus turned to his right to see Goku making a beeline for him.

"Oh it's you," Beerus said apathetically, before stretching his arms and even yawning. "What is it this time?"

"Nothing, really. Vegeta just told me to bring you over to the new ship that Whis is making." Goku said ever so casually. Beerus tilted his head, squinted his eyes and kept his jaw agape.

"Sorry, you lost me already. What was that about Whis building a new ship?" Beerus asked.

"Oh, yeah. Sorry." Goku sheepishly replied. "Whis agreed to making a spaceship for everyone so that-"

"Hold on a minute, what do you mean by 'everyone'?" Beerus sternly asked. "Do you not understand the concept of bringing someone up to speed first?"

"Sorry, I'm no good in that part." Goku answered, chucking nervously. Fortunately for Goku's sake, he heard Vegeta's booming voice yell out to him.

"Kakarot! Do you have Beerus with you?" Vegeta yelled. Goku turned, smiled, and waved at the other Saiyan.

"Yeah. He's right next to me!" Goku yelled back. Beerus then peeked around Goku, finally seeing where Vegeta was after all the time he spent out cold.

"Are you not even going to attempt to fill in some blanks for me?" Beerus asked, but before he could get his answer, Goku had already ran off to meet up with Vegeta. "Is anyone gonna give me any answers?" Beerus then took in a deep breath, before slowly following the Saiyan.

"What in the hell took you so long?" Vegeta barked, to which Goku simply chuckles off.

"Sorry about that," Goku said, chuckling as he spoke. "I completely forgot that Lord Beerus was in need of catching up."

"And you didn't take the time to explain in a quick summary, or was the concept of getting someone up to speed to broad for your moronic mind?" Vegeta harshly asked, to which Goku frowned.

"Heyyyy!" Goku remarked. This garnered a light, yet noticeable chuckle from Vegeta.

"Anyway, we should figure out some training methods for our new students." Vegeta suddenly said.

"Yeah." Goku replied, still following along, "You know I was thinking that we should use that weight lifting one, you know the one that Whis used on us?"

"That would be a very simple, and effective way to raise one's physical strength and stamina," Vegeta replied, "but we'll need something for all the non physical training."

"Yeah, I was thinking of a practice range, don't you think?" Goku suggested, "We could also ask Whis for meditation rooms."

"We will most definitely need a sparing ring for the trainees, and we have to make sure that it doesn't buckle under the pressure."

"HEY, MASTER VEGETA!" A voice cried out from the distance. The two Saiyans turned around to see Natsu, Sting, and Rogue running towards them, or more accurately, only Natsu running towards them, with a sizable group of people following closely behind.

"Well, that was quick." Vegeta said, as Natsu ran himself thin when he arrived.

"These... are... the people that... are gonna... come with us..." Natsu stated through heavy panting and coughing. Vegeta took a quick glance at the group and huffed. He recognized some in the group, such as the one that calls himself Gajeel, and the red haired one, who he'd never truly caught the name of. Goku recognized the one called Laxus, and he recognized the blonde haired girl, who, if he remembered correctly, was named Lucy. But that was where the familiarity with the two Saiyans ended. In their ranks there was a young man with spiky black hair, wearing a long white coat, green pants and black boots, a woman with long, shoulder-length hair wearing what look to be winter clothes, even wearing a type of cap.

Next was a petite looking look with dark blue, waist long hair. She wore a purple, long sleeved dress, black leggings, and brown sandals. It was also noticed that she was carrying a small, white cat in her arms. And finally, there was another man, but his clothing obscured his features heavily. Only his blue hair and strange red marking below his right eye could be discerned through his mask and strange hat. He also appeared to be heavily bandaged on both arms and legs. Goku couldn't figure out how to describe the man's clothing, but he did notice that he was wearing a heavy-looking, dark blue cloak. Whis suddenly clears his throat.

"Excuse me, I'm afraid that you have to remove your mask and reveal your identity to us." Whis ordered at the mystery man. The masked started to move back, still staring at Whis, and started to tense up. He looked to the other guild members, then back to Whis, and then turned his gaze at Natsu. Natsu then gave both a tense, yet reassuring nod. The masked man then took in a deep breath, before facing the two Saiyans and the tall, pale blue man. He then stepped forward, and finally said,

"My name..." He paused, as if he suddenly forgot his name.

"Well, go on." Whis insisted. The masked man could tell that his patience was starting to run thin. He then took in another deep breath, and after one long sigh, he continued.

"My name is Mystogan."
