Looking at the pouting Bulla, Turles couldn't help but pat her small head. "Of course not. Buu will be back very soon. He's just away handling some business right now. Don't worry about your little friend."
With Turles' assurance, Bulla finally relaxed. After spending so much time together, the bond between Bulla and Buu was quite deep. It was only natural for her to worry when Buu suddenly changed his appearance and left.
As the days passed, Goku and Vegeta continued to shuttle between the Sacred World of the Kai and Earth for their training.
Broly had officially become Beerus' Candidate God of Destruction.
Son Gohan also spent every day training diligently with Piccolo.
As for Turles, his daily routine consisted almost entirely of lurking in the chat group. One day, Di Leina suddenly spoke up.
Di Leina: "The Taotie are about to arrive. Does anyone want to come over to my world and have some fun??"
Zhang Zhiwei: "The Taotie? This old Taoist will come and join the festivities!"
Huang Rong: "Count me in! Count me in!"
Lin Fengjiao: "I'll pass. My skills are entirely focused on dealing with demons and ghosts. If I go up against those mechanical men, I'd probably just be a sacrificial lamb."
Xihe: "I'm in! After eating Turles' fruit, I've reached the level of a Level 9 Martial Artist! I should be able to help!"
It was worth noting that in Xihe's world, martial artists were ranked from levels one to nine. Above that were the Saint Class and the legendary God Class.
Turles: "A Taotie invasion?? Count me in too."
Di Leina: "Oh? Even the Boss is coming? Then I can breathe easy!"
Having seen the "plot" beforehand, Leina knew exactly how incompetent her allies could be. After binge-watching Dragon Ball, she realized just how terrifying that universe was—especially that multicolored "Whole Egg" Zeno. Wiping out a universe with a wave of his hand? It was absolutely horrifying.
Based on the timeline, she was certain that Turles was obscenely powerful. After all, he was from the post-Tournament of Power era.
As the Battle of Juxia City began, several group members arrived in the Super God Universe via the chat group function.
Their arrival was a bit coincidental; they showed up just in time to see Di Leina pinned to the ground by a God-Slayer weapon.
The sight left Turles speechless. Didn't I show you the spoilers? How did you still end up pinned to the ground??
He walked over and effortlessly yanked the God-Slayer weapon out of the pavement.
"Ahem! Right as I show up, they hit me with a super move. I guess it really is happening..." Leina said, her expression grim.
Good grief, it turned out this lady hadn't entirely believed the spoilers. Was she using herself as bait just to confirm the truth?
The group was collectively stunned by her logic. With a "God Body," she could survive it, but anyone else would have been dead on the spot.
As the group gathered, Xihe looked at Turles with curiosity. "Huh, so your hair really is shaped like a crab. And do you really look exactly like Son Goku?"
Turles smirked. "We look alike, but I'm a bit taller."
"However," he added, "now isn't the time for a chat."
With a flick of his wrist, he slapped away an incoming laser beam and followed up by tossing a Ki Blast.
The blast detonated instantly, vaporizing several small fries charging toward them.
"Leina! Leina! What's happening over there? And who are those people??"
Ducao's demanding voice crackled through Leina's communication channel.
Leina, however, replied with annoyance. "Watch your tone, Ducao! I'm only here to support you out of the goodness of my heart. You have no right to order me around or question me! We're done talking!"
She cut the transmission immediately. She had now fully confirmed the truth of what Xihe had said. Heh, so many people plotting against me. Do they really think I'm easy prey? And Lieyang...
Fury burned in Leina's heart. Lieyang itself was part of the conspiracy against her. How else could Morgana have cracked her skills so easily? Was the Heaven's Tower of Lieyang just for show?
Back on the carrier Juxia, Ducao stared at the screen with a darkened face. "Damn it! Who are these people? How did they suddenly appear next to Leina? It looks like she knows them!"
Lian Feng shook her head. "I'm not sure which civilization they belong to. But judging by Leina's familiarity with them, could they be from Lieyang?"
Turles didn't care about what was happening on the Juxia. Looking at the invading Taotie, a spark of anger flickered in his eyes. Though this wasn't his original home, he was still of Daxia descent. Seeing this scene naturally stirred his protective instincts.
Under the stunned gazes of Xihe and the others, Turles raised his right hand. Multiple energy rays fanned out like scattered flower petals, precisely piercing the bodies of every Taotie soldier in the vicinity.
Everyone observing the battle fell into a shocked silence.
On the Juxia, the atmosphere was dead quiet.
"A Sovereign??" Ducao asked, his voice dry.
"Most likely. Aside from a Sovereign equipped with a Celestial Computer, no god should be able to deconstruct and eliminate an entire Taotie vanguard so easily," Lian Feng replied, equally shaken.
Ducao slammed his fist onto the table. "Damn it! Don't they know the Power of the Galaxy is the true Galactic Sovereign? Where did this guy come from? What is his objective??"
Elsewhere, Morgana watched the scene in awe. "No way! No way! This is fantastic! I have to make him one of the Queen's warriors!"
"If I have his help, I can definitely crush that bitch Keisha. I'll leave a little demon fluid in her and make her 'radiant'!"
"Ato, find out! Find out which civilization this warrior belongs to. I don't believe for a second that he's from Lieyang..."
"As you wish, my Queen!"
Morgana stared intently at Turles on the screen. "Queen Morgana is going to have you!"
In the sky, Angel Yan, who had been observing Juxia City to report back to Keisha, was momentarily stunned.
"Queen, the Battle of Juxia City has shifted. The Power of the Galaxy didn't get the training he needed. A powerful god suddenly appeared and one-shotted the entire Taotie invasion force."
"Oh? A 'powerful god'?? From which civilization?" Keisha asked, her interest piqued.
"I... I don't know. My Eye of Insight can't read him..."
"Heh, lady, it's quite rude to roll your eyes at people like that."
The voice made Angel Yan's hair stand on end. She instantly drew her Flame Sword and pointed it at Turles.
"Who are you? Why are you interfering in this battle?? Don't you know that gods are not permitted to interfere in the wars of lesser civilizations?"
Looking at Yan's guarded stance, Turles chuckled. "Don't be so tense. If I wanted to do something to you, you wouldn't even have time to react. Besides, what do you mean by 'interfering'? I'm from Daxia myself. You expect me to just stand by and watch them invade my people without lifting a finger??"
