Chapter 257 - 247: Tapping In! (1/2)
Some time soon passed as the fighters from each Universe started to get familiar with each other. Hit remained silent with his eyes closed. Frost had a weird smile as he twirled a pencil around his fingers, calmly observing the walking fighters.
Speaking of Frost, Universe 6 and 7 were known as twin Universes, their counterparts so to say! Frost was essentially Frieza, but he lived in Universe 6 instead of 7. He was in his first form, but his appearance was quite different. His muscles were mostly blue and dark gray, with a big blue gem over his white bone-like armor.
Cabba was a Universe 6 Saiyan. The same went for Caulifla and Kale. The latter had their attention on Nao as the two completely disregarded Goku and the others. As for Cabba, he took notice of Goku and the others early on and initiated a greeting with them.
Vegeta became shocked knowing about the existence of other Saiyans, especially female ones at at! They even started to exchange their history records. One key difference the two had was that their home Planet, Planet Sadala, still existed in Universe 6, while it was destroyed in an internal conflict in Universe 7.
The very same conflict Oscar's father, who was Naoto's grandfather, took part in as part of the righteous faction. Of course Vegeta nor Goku knew of this fact, as it was passed down orally through Nao's remaining family, and lost through the Palace's records.
But the two quickly acknowledged each other as Cabba acquainted himself with Vegeta.
But with the fighters entering the test exam area, Whis and Vados called their attention before long, and the test soon began.
After giving the middle finger to Nao, Caulifla took her eyes off him, only to take up her pen. In no time at all did she start scratching her head with her pen. Kale saw her brief interaction with Nao and the moment her eyes met his, she felt her blood start to pump. THUMP!
She immediately turned her head away, and focused on the test paper in front of her. 'What was that just now...? It almost felt like my blood became excited...', Kale uttered in a low voice to where only she could hear it.
She then saw Caulifla groan, scratching her head in confusion. She then leaned back in her chair and cursed out.
”Damn it! Why must we take a shitty test outta nowhere!? I want to fight already!”, Caulifla yelled out, suddenly striking her fist onto the white table beneath her. Yet the table was strong enough to withstand her blow.
”B-Big sis...”, Kale tried to speak out to her and calm her down but she suddenly heard a thwacking sound, only to see Vados strike down at Caulifla's head with her staff.
”Quiet! Fighters must be able to be both strong and have a good wit during a competition to come out on top. It is not all about brute strength. If you cannot earn ten points from such a measly test like this then you will be disqualified.”
”Ugh...fine! I know that but this is still hella annoyin' to deal with! I don't see these two beanstalks anywhere in my eyes. Can you adjust the rules to where I can fight that white haired guy up there? I get this annoyin' feelin' just be lookin' at him! Kale, you felt it too didn't you!?”, Caulifla yelled out
”Big sis...”, Kale said, meekly replying to her.
Hearing Caulifla yell that also caused anger to streak across Vegeta's eyes.
”Why you little, we are not beanstalks! We're proud members of the Saiyan warriors race!”, Vegeta yelled back, retoring her.
”Tch, why is your ass tied up in a knot all of a sudden? But I'm bein' serious here, Lady Vados. Please?”
Hearing Caulifla ask that, Vados was going to hit her head once more, but she stopped her motion. Enough time passed during this interaction with Caulifla to where she spotted Champa holding his shoulder over Nao, as if he had become best friends with him all of a sudden!
Beerus wasn't disgusted by this either and he too took curious about their conversation the two were having. He even nodded in approval. Vados found this strange but she saw Champa fly on over in the next couple moments.
Seeing this, she flew up and greeted him.
”Lord Champa?”
”Vados, there's been a substitution. Both Beerus and I approve of it. One of Beerus's slots just became available. Look.”
”Huh?”
After Vados questioned Champa, Champa pointed his finger down to the test site. Not even a moment later did Vados see Mr. Buu fall flat onto his stomach, letting the test paper slide off his pink belly. He fell face first onto the desk, and started to sleep right then and there! Loud snoring started to echo from his mouths as he opened it wide with every breath he took.
”Oh my. It looks like you're right, Lord Champa.”
Meanwhile, further down in the testing site, anger streaked across both Piccolo's and Vegeta's eyes while Goku just stared at the now sleeping Mr. Buu without blinking. As for Monaka, he was further off in the distance, who actually was focused on doing the written test!
”I told you bringing him wasn't such a good idea...”
”But I didn't think Buu would just go fall asleep like this!! Ya think so to, right, Vegeta!?”
”To hell with that, Kakarrot! For once the Namekian and I agree on the same thing. You were an idiot to bring this guy after all! We're down one fighter now!”
