Chapter 171: Zamasu's Intel!
Amidst the excitement and enthusiasm of the Saiyans, a hint of curiosity also emerged in their hearts.
They were well aware of Mu Chuan's immense strength, but what special abilities did Monaka, who had been personally named by Lord Beerus, possess?
How powerful could Monaka be?
To be considered comparable to Mu Chuan, Monaka had to be extraordinarily strong, right?
The Saiyans were extremely curious, but they didn't dare to ask easily, so they kept their curiosity to themselves.
If Mu Chuan knew what they were thinking, he wouldn't have known how to respond either. Monaka's situation was truly complicated and difficult to explain.
It couldn't be summed up in just a few words.
As the participants for the martial arts tournament were confirmed, Mu Chuan felt it was necessary to share some crucial information. If Beerus took it seriously, perhaps they could stop Zamasu from causing trouble right from the start.
"Lord Beerus, I have something very important to report to you, but this matter is also somewhat unusual," Mu Chuan suddenly said, catching both Beerus and Whis off guard. For him to act so cautiously, the matter had to be quite serious and complicated—possibly even quite tricky.
The two of them immediately adopted a posture of attentive listening.
Mu Chuan then explained the situation he had encountered, how he came across Zamasu, and under what circumstances Zamasu had appeared.
As soon as he finished speaking, a look of concern appeared on Beerus' face, and Whis' previously gentle smile gradually faded.
"A space-time disturbance? And wearing the earrings of a Supreme Kai?"
"Could such a person really exist?"
Beerus and Whis exchanged glances, both seeing the same gravity in each other's eyes. Tampering with time was a serious crime, after all.
Moreover, it involved an unknown figure.
"We'll investigate this matter thoroughly. If there's anything suspicious, we'll make sure to get to the bottom of it. Since this concerns the gods, there can be no room for negligence," Beerus said seriously.
"We'll start by investigating within our own universe, though we can't rule out the possibility that it involves a god from another universe," Whis added, his tone unusually cautious. Anyone who disturbed the peace must be brought under control and prevented from causing further disruption.
Seeing that Beerus and Whis were taking this seriously, Mu Chuan quietly breathed a sigh of relief, as he knew exactly what kind of threat Zamasu posed.
However…
He couldn't directly reveal the full truth. If he spoke too clearly, it might arouse suspicion towards him, and then he wouldn't be able to explain himself even if he wanted to. This left him feeling quite helpless.
Even though he knew about Zamasu's situation, he couldn't state it outright. He could only hint at it indirectly, hoping they would investigate and figure it out on their own.
In the meantime, he could offer occasional reminders…
All he could hope for was that this wouldn't lead to disaster.
Of course, Mu Chuan felt quite frustrated as well. By now, his strength should have been powerful enough!
Yet, he still had to worry about someone like Zamasu. Zamasu was such a huge bug, an existence that defied the natural order. His power had transcended into the realm of law and order itself.
He and Zamasu were simply not on the same level!
In terms of pure combat strength, Zamasu might not necessarily be stronger than Mu Chuan, but his very existence was certainly rather absurd.
After receiving the information from Mu Chuan, Beerus and Whis left Earth with serious expressions. It was clear they weren't just heading off to find Monaka; they also had to investigate this matter further.
Once the God of Destruction and his entourage were gone, all the Saiyans present erupted in excitement. Earlier, with Beerus there, they hadn't dared to show too much enthusiasm, but now that he was gone, they couldn't contain themselves.
"This is amazing…"
"Finally, we get to fight against even stronger opponents! Facing such powerful fighters will absolutely lead to a huge improvement in our abilities!"
"This is a rare opportunity!"
"I can't wait!!"
Hearing their excited exclamations, Mu Chuan rolled his eyes.
"Don't get too complacent. Especially you, Karl and Greta—your combat strength may be passable for now, but at the very least, you need to reach Super Saiyan 3."
"As for you, Axianna, you need to focus on improving your base combat strength. Although there's still some time before the martial arts tournament, it's neither too short nor too long. If you push yourself in intensive training, you might be able to raise your base strength."
"As for breaking through to Super Saiyan 4, it's unrealistic to expect that in such a short time."
Mu Chuan pointed out each of their strengths and weaknesses. After all, their combat power wasn't quite enough to compete in this tournament—it was a bit lacking. However, the chance to participate still offered them a valuable opportunity to broaden their horizons, especially with Mu Chuan backing them up.
He didn't think he would lose to the strong fighters of Universe 6.
His words sobered them up. They understood how rare this chance was, and none of them wanted to be eliminated too quickly. Even if they only got one fight, they didn't want to lose embarrassingly.
Soon after, Karl and Greta entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. The time flow in there was such that a day outside would equal a year inside, giving them ample time to train.
Axianna also began her own rigorous training, not wasting a single moment.
The other Saiyans urgently threw themselves into training as well. Even though most of them weren't directly involved in the tournament, seeing others get this opportunity naturally motivated them to improve their combat power quickly, hoping that one day they might get a similar chance.
They didn't want to miss out when the opportunity came.
As all the Saiyans dove into their training, the Earth warriors, on the other hand, found themselves somewhat sidelined.
Though they had the androids as opponents, without the Saiyans to guide them, they felt like something was missing. Even with Kami and Popo around, they still couldn't shake off the odd feeling.
"It seems like the Saiyans no longer have time to manage us," Tien muttered to himself as he observed the situation.
However, being a disciplined person, Tien wasn't one to let the actions of others affect his own training. Instead, he threw himself into it with even more dedication. After all, it wouldn't be long before they'd get to see warriors from other universes, and their strength might surpass his expectations. This was also a great opportunity to broaden his horizons.
The other Earth warriors, influenced by Tien's determination, also became more motivated and threw themselves into their training.
With everyone focused on their training, Mu Chuan seemed the most relaxed. He rubbed his chin thoughtfully as he observed the Earth warriors.
In his view, the Earth warriors still had a lot of potential for growth—it was just that the pressure wasn't intense enough!
"I'll need to increase the pressure on them. Otherwise, they're getting too comfortable…"
