Champa didn't seem to notice the crowd's stares.
He pulled an egg out of the storage container, planted one hand on his hip, and declared with booming pride:
"Behold! The finest delicacy of Universe Six—the Dodo Bird Egg! Its flavor is beyond anything you bumpkins from Universe Seven have ever tasted!"
He puffed up his round chest, his chubby chin lifted high with absolute confidence.
I've brought out my top-shelf cuisine! Let's see who's envious now!
Beside him, Vados looked so embarrassed she could've curled her toes right through the floor—and then some.
Oh dear, Lord Champa… when you make a fool of yourself later, don't blame me.
Unable to watch what was about to happen, she turned her head away completely.
As for the Supreme Kai and the others who had once tasted hotpot, they were certain—nothing in the universe could surpass that as the pinnacle of food.
But since this was the God of Destruction of another universe, none of them dared to say so aloud.
No one spoke.
The silence grew heavy… almost eerie.
Finally, Beerus broke the tension with a light cough.
"Well, since it's the top delicacy of Universe Six, let's have a taste, shall we? If it's truly that delicious, I might even offer a word of praise."
He strolled forward, picked up one of the eggs, and eyed it curiously.
"So? How do you eat this thing?"
Seeing Beerus move, little Gran eagerly trotted up beside him, snatching a Dodo Bird Egg of his own.
The Supreme Kai trio, still hesitant because of Champa, didn't move—so Gran turned back and handed them a few himself.
Now, everyone had one in hand.
"So… how do we eat it?"
Champa paid no attention to the boy.
With a proud smirk, he raised an egg and said loftily:
"True gourmet ingredients require only the simplest cooking methods! Don't you know that?"
"We'll savor it in its purest form!"
He carefully peeled away the eggshell and took a bite.
A second later
"Aaaah~!"
A blissful moan echoed across the Sacred World of the Kai.
Even though he had eaten Dodo Bird Eggs countless times before, every bite still sent him into utter ecstasy.
Under everyone's startled gaze, Champa began twisting and wriggling like a madman, occasionally letting out more… questionable noises.
"Pfft!"
Gran couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing.
The Supreme Kais wanted to laugh too but lacked the courage.
Their shoulders shook violently as they tried to suppress it.
"Brat! What are you laughing at?! Once you taste my Dodo Bird Egg, you'll be just like me!"
Champa glared at Gran.
If the kid weren't Beerus's disciple—and so monstrously talented—he'd have smacked him already.
"Then I'd better give it a try."
Gran wasn't the least bit afraid—not with Beerus around.
He peeled the egg in a few swift motions and popped it into his mouth.
After a few chews, he could only confirm
Yep. Just a plain old boiled egg.
"Well? Isn't it delicious?" Champa asked, looking utterly sure of himself.
Gran forced a grin.
"It's amazing! Truly worthy of being Universe Six's finest cuisine!"
He swallowed hard, glancing toward the sly angel of Universe Six.
Vados had already turned her back completely, as if too embarrassed to witness what was happening.
"Hahahaha! I knew it! You bumpkins have never tasted anything so divine!"
Hearing Gran's words, Champa beamed with satisfaction.
Beerus and Whis exchanged a knowing glance.
Is the kid… pretending?
There was no way anything could beat their hotpot.
So the two skeptics bent down and took a bite themselves.
"???"
Their eyes widened instantly.
What kind of garbage is this?!
Seeing their expressions, the Supreme Kais thought it must truly be incredible—so they each took a bite as well.
"???"
Moments later, everyone from Universe Seven fell silent.
"Hahaha! Look at your shocked faces! Never had anything so heavenly before, have you?"
"Only in Universe Six will you find such supreme cuisine! Envious yet?"
"Go on, beg me! Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I'll even spare you a few more Dodo Bird Eggs!"
Champa was practically glowing with smug delight, as if he'd just downed a bottle of 1982 cola—buzzing with self-satisfaction.
Meanwhile, the awkwardness in the air had reached catastrophic levels—so thick it could explode with a glance.
Vados had long since turned away, her toes metaphorically digging not just through a three-bedroom apartment—but now into a courtyard house too.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Beerus stifled a laugh, coughed, and finally said,
"Not bad. But our Universe Seven has some fine cuisine of its own."
He clapped Gran on the shoulder, grinning.
"That hotpot you made last time wasn't bad. Why don't you whip up another batch—for our dear Lord Champa to try?"
Gran chuckled.
"Beerus-sama, eating the same thing too often gets dull. How about we go taste something different this time?"
He smirked.
After all—how could any food showdown be complete without instant noodles?
"What's going on here?"
Champa finally began to sense something was off.
They weren't excited at all!
"Don't tell me… Universe Seven has food that can rival the Dodo Bird Egg?!"
"Impossible! Nothing in existence is tastier than this!"
Gran ignored the pig-headed god and turned to Beerus.
"Beerus-sama, during my travels, I came across a certain dish I wanted to bring back as a gift for you. But… things got complicated, and I couldn't deliver it."
"Want to go try it now?"
Beerus's eyes flicked toward Champa, who was still busy gloating.
"This 'food' of yours… will it be enough to smack that pig's smug face?"
Gran grinned.
"Absolutely."
He remembered the anime clearly
Two universes had nearly gone to war over just two cups of instant noodles.
"Good. Then let's go!"
If he could both humiliate Champa and enjoy a new delicacy, Beerus saw no downside.
"Alright."
Gran nodded, then grabbed Shin by the collar.
"Use your Instant Transmission. We're heading to Earth."
"Why me? You can teleport too! I'm not your chauffeur!"
"Stop whining—or I'll hit you."
"..."
When your fists can't win, obedience is the only option.
Shin sighed and gave in.
"Hey, fat pig! You coming?"
"Hah! You think you can trick me? There's no way any food can rival the Dodo Bird Egg!"
"If you don't come, I'll hit you with an Ultra Flying Kick!"
"You want a fight, huh? Fine, I'll—"
"Enough talking."
Beerus's patience snapped.
In the next instant, the might of a true God of Destruction burst forth.
He appeared before Champa in a blink—and landed a solid punch to the gut.
Champa folded instantly, all fight drained from him.
No one—Whis, Vados, nor the Supreme Kais—reacted.
Apparently, Beerus knocking out Champa was nothing new.
Only Gran, Shin, and Kibito stood frozen, wide-eyed.
Their God of Destruction was this terrifying?!
"Let's move."
Beerus grabbed Champa by the scruff of his neck and rested his other hand on Shin's shoulder.
The others quickly followed suit.
With a sharp whoosh, they vanished.
Only the remnants of Vados's toe-dug architecture remained—a full three-bedroom apartment and a newly built courtyard.
