Chapter 257 - 247: Tapping In! (2/2)
”Quiet your voice, Vegeta! The others are looking at this! Don't see they try to take advantage of this!”
”Tch, you're probably right. But it seems something is happening up above. Did they just mention something about a 'substitution' just now?”
”A substitution. Someone is goin' to join us!?”
”Calm down you fool. They are coming over so let's see what they're going to say.”
”All right!”
After the three exchanged words, the others found it entertaining but soon became serious as Vados and Champa flew down. Beerus flew over to the opposite way to the stands, and more specifically toward Nao. The gods beside him became shocked after hearing Beerus talk, and his voice was loud enough for the rest of the audience to hear it, also causing them to be shocked.
Meanwhile Champa spoke out to the fighters on the testing site.
”Listen up you lot. Beerus and I agreed in a change of the rules a bit and we are allowing a substitution to replace...whatever that thing is.”, Champa said, pointing his finger at the sleeping Buu.
”Seriously!? Who is goin' to join our side!?”, Goku suddenly exclaimed happily, jumping out of his table.
”Quiet down you fool, I'm bringing him over right now. He will join you guys in the test area. Nao, I'm counting on you! Don't you dare cause a mockery out of me!”, Beerus yelled out, announcing the new fighter's name.
Beerus yelled that out, causing the Universe 7 fighters to become stunned. A happy smile bloomed on Goku's face as Beerus took this time to lean towards Nao, who arrived beside him. Nao then heard Beerus whisper into his ear.
'I yelled that out to keep those fools distracted. You know who Monaka is right?', Beerus asked him with a whisper.
Nao slightly nodded in confirmation.
'Good. Then you know that means we really only have three fighters. But with you joining I can feel at ease against that stupid brother of mine. I trust your strength, especially after seeing those last couple of battles you had.'
'Thank you for your praise, Lord Beerus. I won't let you down. I did come here for a personal reason too, but I wasn't expecting you to ask me join in.'
'Is that so? Care to tell me what it is you want? Perhaps I can give a lending hand.'
'Those two female Saiyans down there. I'm going to try and take them under my wing.'
After Nao whispered that into Beerus's ear, Beerus blinked for a moment with a stunned look.
'Are you crazy!?...is what I'd like to say. But poaching two fighters sounds really fun, especially from that bastard's Universe. Count me in, even if they do end up joining your side. Just wanting to look at his reaction is going to be priceless!', Beerus whispered once more, trying to hold back his laughter.
'Thank you. I'm going to go on ahead, Lord Beerus.'
Hearing Nao whisper that, he slowly flew on ahead as Beerus nodded. Beerus flew back on up, only to have Champa follow. Champa tried to pester him on what that was about, but Beerus ignored him.
Seeing things done, Vados flew back towards Whis after giving Nao a smile. Nao flew down landing beside Goku and the others. Goku greeted him with a hearty laugh.
”To think our substitute would be you, Nao! Glad to have ya on the team. I finally get to see your strength in person. Lord Beerus kept talkin' about ya durin' our training but we never got to see how far ya can go.”
”Heh, it's nice to see you guys again. But before we resume the test I need to talk to a certain someone.”, Nao said as Goku and other blinked at him. They then saw Nao walk right toward Caulifla!
Arriving in front of Caulifla's table, he slammed his palm down hard, causing a loud bang to echo. BANG!
Caulifla did not back away from his movements as she saw Nao hover over her body, like a typical gangster would from his previous world.
”You clearly told me to go screw off there earlier, didn't you? I don't back away so easily.”, Nao said with a serious look.
Hearing that only caused Caulifla to grin.
”Well if it ain't shitty little beanstalk number three, it looks like you actually managed to make it over here! So what if I did? What the hell are going to do about it? Huhhhhh?”
Taunting him, Caulifla leaned her face inward, directly looking right at his eyes, and awaited Nao's response!
