“Earth?”
When Mr. Popo uttered the answer, Lin Chen was shocked.
How could it be related to Earth?
You see, in the Dragon Ball setting, Earth is just a remote region in Universe 7, a backward planet.
Except during Majin Buu Saga, when the wizard Bibidi, for some unknown reason, brought Buu’s sealed egg on Earth, this planet has always been devoid of major events in the universe.
Even the Frieza Force, whose job is to conquer planets, once considered it a worthless low-level planet…
Wait…
Thinking about this, Lin Chen’s eyebrows suddenly furrowed, and a doubt arose in his mind.
Yeah, it’s such a worthless low-level planet. Why would the wizard Bibidi, who defeated three Supreme Kais and almost dominated the universe in the past, bring Buu to this remote place called Earth?
It just doesn’t make sense!
Could it be that something had attracted the wizard Bibidi that he specially came to this place?
Something related to Mr. Popo’s secret, perhaps?
“Mr. Popo, can you please elaborate? Why is all of this connected to Earth?”
“Mr. Lin Chen, all of this is because on Earth, there is a supreme god not inferior to Zeno-sama. Mr. Popo is on Earth to watch over this god, ensuring that he never awakens.”
“What?!”
Lin Chen suddenly turned pale. There’s actually a god sealed on Earth?
And this god is not inferior to Zeno?
Could it be…
“Is it the Dragon God Zalama?”
In the Dragon Ball universe, the only god Lin Chen can think of who is not inferior to Zeno is the Dragon God Zalama.
And when you think about it, there are clues to support this.
Firstly, due to the existence of the Super Dragon Balls, it can be confirmed that the Dragon God Zalama is still alive, or else the Super Dragon Balls would turn into stone.
Secondly, Lin Chen has been to the Dragon Realm of the Dragon God Zalama, and learned that although the Dragon Realm exists, the Dragon God himself is not present in his kingdom.
So, all in all, Lin Chen believes that the god Mr. Popo mentioned is indeed the Dragon God Zalama.
Mr. Popo, upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, was quite surprised.
“Mr. Lin Chen, you’ve really surprised Mr. Popo. I didn’t intend to tell you, but you actually guessed it yourself. Yes, the one sealed on Earth is indeed the Dragon God Zalama.”
“But Mr. Popo, as far as I know, Earth has been destroyed in several worlds…”
Mr. Popo shook his head, interrupting, “Although the seal is on Earth, it doesn’t mean that if Earth is destroyed, the seal will be destroyed. The seal that can contain the Dragon God cannot be broken from the outside.”
Lin Chen took a deep breath.
Mr. Popo’s words were correct, but Lin Chen still found many points of suspicion.
Most importantly, why was the Dragon God Zalama sealed?
How could the source of Dragon Balls be sealed by someone? And who sealed the Dragon God?
This time, when Lin Chen raised the question, Mr. Popo directly shook his head.
“I apologize, Mr. Lin Chen. I’ve already told you what I can. As for the rest, with your current strength, it’s better not to know.”
“My current strength? Mr. Popo, are you saying you find my strength too weak?”
“Yes.”
Mr. Popo straightforwardly remarked, “Mr. Lin Chen, has your Divine Realm broken through the third level? If you can achieve that in the future, perhaps I can tell you the truth. Knowing it now would only add to your troubles.”
“Ants don’t need to worry about human affairs. In Popo’s eyes, you are just an ant in front of Dragon God-sama. So, you don’t need to concern yourself with the issues of Dragon God-sama.”
One sentence from Mr. Popo made Lin Chen both angry and speechless.
“Mr. Popo, I am very strong now. Even if I encounter the God of Destruction, I won’t lose…”
“Mr. Lin Chen, if you’re not convinced, we can test it.”
“Oh?” Lin Chen raised an eyebrow, “Mr. Popo, are you suggesting a spar with me?”
“Yes,” Mr. Popo bluntly said, “Let’s go to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. I don’t want to disturb Kami.”
“Okay.”
Lin Chen nodded, and immediately teleported with Mr. Popo to the entrance of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and went in.
When the doors closed again, a battle immediately ensued.
Lin Chen had long wanted to test Mr. Popo’s strength.
In the past, before stepping into the divine realm, he couldn’t discern it. But now, Lin Chen had not only entered the divine realm, but also comprehended Ultra Ego. He wanted to know how much of a gap there was between him and Mr. Popo.
So, without further ado, Lin Chen transformed into Super Saiyan Silver-Grey and charged at Mr. Popo.
“Such power. But it’s still a bit lacking.”
Facing Lin Chen’s powerful punch, Mr. Popo remained unperturbed. With a casual extension of his hand and no visible movement, Lin Chen suddenly felt the world spinning, realizing that he had been sent flying by Mr. Popo.
“What’s going on?”
Lin Chen steadied himself and looked back, only to see that a layer of white light had appeared on Mr. Popo’s pitch-black body at some point.
“Ultra Instinct?”
“Yes. Mr. Lin Chen, now that you know, do you have a way to deal with it?” Mr. Popo turned around and asked.
“A way? I do have one…”
Lin Chen gritted his teeth and entered Ultra Ego state. Under this state, his hair changed again, turning from silver-gray to deep red.
As Lin Chen began to transform, Mr. Popo was also somewhat surprised.
“Hmm? Mr. Lin Chen, you’ve truly surprised me this time.”
“Perhaps… in a few more years, I should tell you everything.”
“A few years? Mr. Popo, tell me the truth now!”
“Defeat me first.”
“Fine!”
Immediately, Lin Chen, in his Ultra Ego form, attacked Mr. Popo again.
In the empty Hyperbolic Time Chamber, the sound of intense battle echoed continuously.
Outside the Lookout, after Dende finished touring the place, he returned to the plaza.
“Mr. Popo! Are you here? Mr. Popo?”
“Kami-sama, Popo is here.”
Suddenly, Mr. Popo’s voice echoed behind Dende, startling him.
“Oh, Mr. Popo, where did you go just now? By the way, where is Mr. Lin Chen? Did he leave?”
“I and Mr. Lin Chen went to another place. He should be leaving.”
“Should?” Dende looked strangely at Mr. Popo.
“Nothing. Kami, let Popo teach you Kami’s magic. In the future, you can use Kami’s magic to observe the mortal world. Also, there’s the Other World. As Kami, you can enter higher dimensions. Shall I take you to see it?”
“Really? Then let’s go to the Other World first. I want to see Great Elder and the others…”
