Chapter 553: Grim Situation
World 14, Universe 7.
Planet Vegeta.
A catastrophe that swept through the 12 universes finally came to a satisfactory conclusion.
However, to achieve this conclusion, there were many sacrifices across the universes.
Therefore, when Lin Chen and Broly returned to the planet’s surface, informing Jiren and others that everything had ended, the people did not show much joy.
Instead, they were more shocked by the revelation of the true mastermind behind Hearts.
“Behind Hearts is the Dragon God Zalama?”
“Zalama, a name that even our Universe 6’s Namekians have heard of, is said to have created our Namekian race. How could a deity like him stoop to something like this?”
The last two Namekian warriors of Universe 6, Pilina and Saonel, had also came with Hit.
After hearing Lin Chen’s words, they were the most shocked.
Like Universe 7’s Namekians, Universe 6’s Namekians also consider themselves descendants of the Dragon God Zalama and like to be called the Dragon Clan.
Therefore, learning that the mastermind behind these events was the Dragon God Zalama and that he shamelessly used Hearts, was difficult for them to accept.
“Only Hearts know the truth.”
Lin Chen did not tell them that Zalama had been sealed for many years and that he was sealed in Universe 7.
This matter was a closely guarded secret, and Lin Chen was unsure whether to reveal it.
However, after dealing with Hearts, Lin Chen had something he wanted to ask for a long time.
He looked at the three Supreme Kai chatting nearby and asked, “Can you tell me why the universes were on the brink of destruction? Where are our Angels and Gods of Destruction?”
“They are in Zeno’s Palace,” Fuwa replied.
“Zeno’s Palace? All universes?”
“Yes, all universes.”
Lin Chen found it hard to believe. He believed that the Grand Priest would surely know Hearts’ purpose.
But instead of doing anything, he called back all the Angels and God of Destruction of all universes.
It was as if he was facilitating Hearts’ actions.
Is the Grand Priest also working with Hearts?
Thinking of this terrifying possibility, Lin Chen trembled slightly, hoping it wasn’t true.
Others didn’t dwell on it as much as Lin Chen. After understanding the situation, Jiren spoke on behalf of others from various universes.
“Lin Chen, because of Hearts, many have been sacrificed. If possible, we want to use the Super Dragon Balls to revive them!”
The Super Dragon Balls?
Lin Chen didn’t think it was a good idea.
After learning that Zalama might be involved with Hearts, Lin Chen became wary of the Dragon Balls. He had a premonition that Zalama might indeed be connected to Hearts.
The evidence was the appearance of Dark Dragon Balls causing anomalies across different timelines.
In this world, only the Dragon Clan and a few others could create Dragon Balls.
And those who could create Dark Dragon Balls with magical powers were even fewer.
Among them, Dragon God Zalama was the prime suspect.
Although Lin Chen didn’t understand how the sealed Zalama accomplished this, if it were true, the Dragon Balls couldn’t be used recklessly.
However, while the Super Dragon Balls carried risks, other Dragon Balls might be safe, especially Saiyan’s Dragon Balls, as Lin Chen himself had created them.
Thinking this, Lin Chen used Instant Transmission to find Paragus and others, instructing them to bring the Dragon Balls from Planet Vegeta for Jiren and the others to use.
As for Lin Chen himself, there were other matters he needed to attend to.
In order to deal with Hearts, they had wasted a lot of time in World 14, and now they were unsure of the situation on Time Patrol’s side.
In fact, during the battle with Hearts just now, Lin Chen had received an urgent communication request from Chronoa.
Although the situation at the time did not allow Lin Chen to talk with Chronoa, since she had sent an urgent communication request, the situation must have been dire.
After bidding farewell to everyone and requesting them to help look after Universe 7, Lin Chen, accompanied by Broly, returned to the Time Nest once again.
However, as soon as Lin Chen and the others arrived at the Time Nest, they immediately smelled a strong scent of blood in the air.
“Mr. Lin Chen?!”
Chronoa was the first to notice their arrival.
After an exclamation, the others immediately gathered around.
Lin Chen looked at everyone, Goku, Vegeta, Lin Luo, Taro… all the Z warriors who stayed in the Time Nest were alive.
But compared to when Lin Chen left, these people’s faces were filled with exhaustion and disappointment.
It seemed like they had faced quite a few setbacks.
Even Frieza, who used to be arrogant, was now hiding alone in a corner.
The only ones who could still smile at Lin Chen were Chronoa, who was forcing herself to smile, and the simple-minded Fat Buu who was making faces at Lin Chen.
Huh?
Buu?
“How come you’re here?”
Lin Chen asked Buu with some surprise.
“Mr. Lin Chen! Long time no see!”
At this moment, Satan suddenly jumped out from behind Buu and greeted Lin Chen.
“It hasn’t been that long, has it? You were at my wedding, too, right?”
“Hahaha, yeah, it seems like it.” Satan laughed and then hugged Buu, saying, “Actually, Buu was called here by Chronoa-sama. Although Buu can’t keep up with everyone’s strength now, he can still be an emergency reinforcement!”
As he said this, Lin Chen suddenly understood. At the same time, he vaguely guessed why there was a smell of blood in the Time Nest but no wounded people to be seen.
It was probably a grim scene here before Buu arrived.
The truth was just as Lin Chen had guessed.
After exchanging information about both sides for a while, Lin Chen learned that the situation on the Time Patrol side was much worse than he had imagined.
According to Goku and the others’ encounters, it was now clear that the recent anomalies in time were closely related to the Dark Dragon Balls they had encountered before.
After Lin Chen left, Goku and the others dealt with two time anomalies related to the Dark Dragon Balls.
First, Vegeta’s side successfully dealt with Cell who was influenced by the Dark Dragon Balls but then encountered the Demon Gods named Gravy and Putine, losing a Dragon Ball in the process.
Then on Goku’s side, while dealing with the Dark Dragon Ball-influenced Majin Buu, they encountered a Demon Realm army.
Under the siege of the demonized Dark Buu and the Demon Realm army, Goku’s team suffered heavy injuries.
Gohan and Piccolo were seriously injured, and only Goku, relying on Ultra Instinct, managed to hold his ground.
However, the power of the bizarre laws mastered by the people of the Demon Realm left Goku helpless until Chronoa arrived with two other groups, resolving the crisis.
But the Dark Dragon Ball in that timeline was still taken away by the people of the Demon Realm.
