204 Tournamen (1/2)

”I have heard of people getting lost, but you are taking it to new heights.” Beerus said sarcastically towards the god of destruction of the 6th universe.

”Snoozy Beerus is awake for once. Guess there is such a thing as miracles.” Champa said in a mocking tone.

”You wanna go?!” Beerus responded angrily. They stared at each other intensely for a second before Beerus continued. ”You are in the 7th universe, Champa. Surely you know that the destroyer of the 6th universe has no business being here.”

Champa put up a hand up his chin as he thought of an excuse. ”Relax, we were just taking a shortcut. Honestly. Why you need to feel to be such a stickler?”

Beerus only sneered.

”You sure you aren't here for the Super Dragon Ball?” Beerus glanced at the giant orange planet before focusing on Champa again.

”You- you know about the Super Dragon Balls??” Champa was shocked as he had never heard of them before Vados mentioned them.

”Hmph. I am not an ignorant fool such as yourself.” Beerus mocked him with a sneer on his face. Of course, he wouldn't mention that Whis had shortly introduced him to these wishing orbs when they were on their way here.

”You can forget about getting any of this universe's orbs. As I said you have no business being in my universe.” Beerus said while waving his hands as if he was shooing away.

”Tch. Since you know about the Dragon balls, you know that they are useless on their own. Even if you collect all of your universe orbs, they wouldn't be capable of exhibiting their true power.”

”Hmph. Of course, I knew that…” Beerus mind drifted to the things he could wish for, most of them were, of course, related to food. ”What do you suggest?” Beerus glanced at him seemingly uninterested.

”How about we let a team of, let's say, 5 mortals of our universe fight each other in a form of a tournament? The winner will get the remaining Dragon Balls-” Champa became increasingly more satisfied with this idea of his. He turned his back towards Beerus. He didn't want Beerus to see the smile on his face.

From what he saw during his stay in Beerus universe, the strength of the upper level of the mortals seemed to be inferior to his. Additionally, he had a legendary assassin on his side who had astonishing abilities. He could be called invincible in the realm of mortals.

Champa finally turned around and immediately became silent. He looked at Beerus who had a victorious smile on his face. ”I accept your silly request. Don't come crawling to me after you lost.” Beerus said as if he had already won.

Champa got a little bit worried after seeing Beerus expression but he quickly shook his head. He convinced himself that this was just a bluff.

”Hmph. Let's see how you smile after my contestants crush yours! In a week we will conduct this tournament!” With that Champa turned around intending to leave with Vados, but they were suddenly stopped by Whis.

”Wait for a moment.” Whis had a friendly smile on his face. ”I want to add something. I think it would be in everyone's interest if the contestants have at least a basic level of intelligent. It wouldn't be fun to watch mere beast fight it out. I think a written test would be the easiest way to determine the intelligent.”

The angel and god didn't seem to have anything against that request and were ready to leave once again but as before were stopped by Whis.

”Big sis, aren't you forgetting something?” Whis gave her and then her staff a meaningful look. Vados smile that she had put up the whole time, twitched slightly.

”Of- Of course, here you go.” Both angels raised their staves, almost touching each other. Vados staff glowed slightly followed with Whis' staff doing the same.

The gods of destruction had questionmarks above their head as they had no idea what that was all about.

Champa asked Vados about this trade but was quickly denied by Vados. How could she mention that she had helped their opponents, but how would she know that this encounter results in a duel between mortals of their respective universe…

Beerus and Whis watched the two deities of universe 6 leave. Beerus turned to Whis before asking with a raised eyebrow, ”What was that all about?”.

”Oh, it seemed that the one I told you about wasn't actually lost. It appeared that he had somehow ended up in your brothers' universe.”

Beerus squinted slightly as he tried to remember about whom Whis was talking about. From the corner of his eyes, he saw several mortals still floating near them.
