[It seems I need to find another way. Neither the God of Destruction nor the Angels can help me with my path. I can only rely on myself.] Piccolo understood the difference between Dragon God Power and Divine Power. All progress could only be achieved through his own efforts.
Just as Piccolo was thinking about how to make further progress, a surge of Law of Space-Time Power suddenly appeared and then disappeared. Lin Chuan and Angel Vados's auras immediately vanished without a trace, completely drawing Piccolo's attention.
"Mm?! What's going on?!" Piccolo suddenly awoke from his meditation. He abruptly stood up and walked to the edge of the Lookout, looking down at the world below.
After carefully sensing the situation, he confirmed that Lin Chuan and Vados had already left and that their auras could no longer be detected.
"It seems Old Lin has started traveling through space-time again. But this time, it looks like he has an Angel like Vados accompanying him. I wonder what kind of matter it is that even requires an Angel to go along." Piccolo immediately realized the seriousness of the situation, but he couldn't investigate further.
If Lin Chuan needed him, he would certainly have asked him to come along.
But he hadn't, so even if Piccolo wanted to get involved, there was nothing he could do.
Even though he had also mastered a trace of the power of the Laws of Space-Time, he still couldn't freely travel between space-time worlds.
Just as Piccolo was pondering this, a special aura from within the universe suddenly diverted his attention.
"Mm? This aura is... Whis? No, that's not right! Whis's aura isn't like this, and Whis is currently on Earth. Then who could it be?" Piccolo became alert. He could be certain that this special aura must belong to an Angel.
Lin Chuan had just left, and now an existence resembling an Angel had appeared.
To be on the safe side, Piccolo decided to investigate.
With Lin Chuan gone, he had to protect Earth!
...
In the universe.
A spaceship bearing the insignia of the Galactic Patrol was speeding toward Earth.
The pilot of this spaceship was none other than the trainee Angel Merus.
[We're about to enter Earth's atmosphere. Pilot, please prepare for entry.] The spaceship emitted a mechanical warning, reminding Merus.
Merus had come here specifically for Lin Chuan and Majin Buu.
[I wonder what kind of person Lin Chuan is, the one rumored to have defeated Angel Mojito and won the Tournament of Power?] Merus eagerly longed to meet Lin Chuan.
Someone capable of matching or even surpassing an Angel would surely be able to resolve his current predicament.
What he didn't know was that he had arrived too late.
Before he arrived, Lin Chuan and Angel Vados had already left this world and entered a space-time tunnel.
Soon, the spaceship entered Earth's atmosphere.
After passing through the atmosphere, to avoid causing a huge commotion, the spaceship arrived above the Great Plains of West City.
Merus had considered things very carefully. However, someone was already waiting here.
Vegeta had been waiting here for quite some time.
However, when Vegeta noticed the insignia on the spaceship, he was also taken aback.
Memories buried deep within his mind resurfaced.
Back when he was part of Frieza's Army, he had seen this insignia before. Although he had only glanced at it casually, Vegeta still remembered it. Moreover, while this spaceship was much larger than Jaco's, there was no mistaking its insignia.
"A Galactic Patrol spaceship? Why have they come to Earth? And this aura..." Vegeta muttered to himself.
Soon, Merus's spaceship made a forced landing not far from Vegeta.
Watching the spaceship, Vegeta felt somewhat solemn, but his demeanor remained calm and composed.
Before seeing the person inside the spaceship emerge, he had already made numerous guesses.
As the spaceship's hatch opened, Galactic Patrolman Merus walked out.
Obviously, Merus had also noticed Vegeta, so he looked directly at him.
With just one glance, he could tell that Vegeta's strength was extraordinary. He also sensed the powerful energy dormant within Vegeta's body.
It was not only powerful, but also carried an extremely evil yet non-evil sensation.
The person before him was arguably the strongest human Merus had ever encountered in Universe 7 so far.
While Merus was observing Vegeta, Vegeta was also sizing him up.
In Vegeta's eyes, Merus seemed to be surrounded by a layer of mist, making it impossible to see through his true strength.
Furthermore, the energy within Merus's body was similar to Angel Power, yet not quite as powerful.
[Just what kind of background does this Galactic Patrolman have...? He actually possesses power resembling that of an Angel?!] Vegeta became alert and took Merus very seriously.
He could sense that Merus was concealing a powerful force within his body that was no weaker than his own.
"Hello, I'm Galactic Patrolman Merus. If I'm not mistaken, you should be the former Saiyan Prince, Vegeta, right?" Merus recognized Vegeta based on the information he possessed and spoke up to ease the tense atmosphere.
"You know me?" Vegeta raised an eyebrow, never expecting Merus to recognize him.
"Yes. I heard about you from my older brother Whis in the past, and I've also investigated all the intelligence and information regarding the Saiyans." Merus explained frankly.
"You're Whis's younger brother? I see. Then what brings you to Earth?" Upon learning Merus's identity, Vegeta lowered his guard. Although surprised, he did not show it.
"It's like this..." Merus briefly explained the purpose of his visit to Earth to Vegeta, focusing on the key points.
He had come to request Lin Chuan's help in dealing with Moro. If Lin Chuan was unwilling to intervene, then he could only awaken the Grand Supreme Kai sleeping within Majin Buu's body to deal with this hidden threat.
Furthermore, he explained the urgency of the current situation. Moro had already headed to Planet Namek. If he obtained the Dragon Balls and restored all his magic power, the situation would become extremely unfavorable.
"Moro? Sounds like nothing more than an insignificant small fry." Vegeta didn't pay much attention.
After all, at his current level, he could even fight against a God of Destruction. No matter how strong Moro was, could he possibly be stronger than a God of Destruction?
He might not even be able to defeat Vegeta with one hand.
Merus knew that Vegeta was arrogant and immediately continued, "Don't underestimate Moro. Back then, it took the Grand Supreme Kai himself to suppress and seal him. Otherwise, the entire universe would have faced a catastrophic disaster. At the very least, his abilities are unusual and cannot be dealt with through ordinary methods."
"Oh? You mean he's an existence capable of destroying the universe? In that case, he does have some ability. However, you may have arrived a step too late, because just moments ago, that guy Talos had already left our space-time." Hearing Merus describe Moro as extremely powerful, Vegeta became somewhat interested.
Even for beings as powerful as them, destroying a universe was now a simple matter.
