After being a God of Destruction for so many years, Beryl was no longer the Saiyan novice she once was.
She would meticulously read many books and other materials related to the gods.
After all, her own life depended on it!
She didn't want to be negligent one day and be erased by Zeno.
Beryl looked at the light orb floating in front of her, then glanced at Kusu, who had placed her Angel Scepter in front of her and was performing a perfectly standard bow, and said, "There's no need for this. Just be like before. No matter what, you are my teacher, and I..."
"It cannot be like before; this is a necessary procedure," Kusu shook her head and said, "Until your strength surpasses all Angels, such a contract must exist."
"The human heart is unfathomable, and so are gods; even I, as an Angel, am the same."
"Alright."
Beryl couldn't argue with Kusu and reached out her finger to touch the light orb.
The next second, the light orb transformed into specks of starlight and merged into Beryl's body.
At this moment, her connection with Kusu became even closer.
"Master-servant contract."
Beryl was very clear about the content of the contract and had also received feedback from the Chat Group.
From the moment the contract was signed, everything Angel Kusu did and every thought she had, Beryl could instantly access and know, as long as she wished.
She could even, with a single thought, take the life of this Angel, whose power far surpassed that of a God of Destruction.
"Congratulations, you have become the true master of Universe 10, no, of this Universe."
Kusu slowly stood up and bowed slightly to Beryl.
"Kusu, is it really necessary to be so formal?" Beryl couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, that is the duty of an Angel," Kusu shook her head. "After the contract is signed, even if you go to war with the whole multiverse, even if the enemy is the Grand Minister, I will fully assist you."
Beryl: "..."
Go to war with the whole multiverse? Kusu, you really dare to think it and say it out loud.
The Grand Minister is your father. Is it really okay to say something like that?
"Lady Beryl, do you remember my warning to you before I fell asleep?" Kusu suddenly asked.
"Master the Creation Energy and Destruction Energy before going to Zeno's Palace?"
"Not that," Kusu shook her head. "It's about the eighteen Universes, or rather, the six Universes that were erased by Zeno."
"Uh... what do you want to say?" Beryl asked, confused.
"The Angels of those six Universes didn't just tacitly approve of the Gods of Destruction and Supreme Kais' actions regarding the Demonized Spirit Tree; rather, they deliberately concealed what they were doing, preventing Zeno and the Grand Minister from discovering it in time."
Seeing the confusion on Beryl's face, Kusu didn't keep her in suspense.
"Conceal?"
"Yes, please forgive me, but I cannot tell you the specific reasons and processes now."
Kusu continued,
"If you want to check it through the contract, you can, but I don't recommend you do so, at least not until your strength surpasses that of an Angel. It's better not to know all these things."
"However, I can tell you one thing: their purpose in doing this was to hope to detach their Universe from the jurisdiction of Zeno, and to lift the Universe's law restrictions on themselves."
"To put it more concretely..." Kusu paused for a moment, "they hoped to make the Universe they managed become the next Dragon Realm, capable of coexisting with the entire multiverse."
"At a more basic level, it was to be like us, a country within a country that is not under the jurisdiction of Zeno but still has close ties to the whole multiverse."
Kusu stopped here.
"Is it because when they used the Demonized Spirit Tree, they touched upon something, or rather, Zeno's bottom line, which angered Zeno and led to their destruction?" Beryl voiced her doubt.
Kusu neither refuted nor denied it.
Beryl sighed and didn't continue to ask.
She could indeed know what happened in those six Universes through the contract, but since Kusu said it was best not to, then she would let it be.
"So, what should I do now?"
From Kusu's previous words, Beryl knew that she was most likely no longer under Zeno's jurisdiction.
Then...
To be honest, she didn't really want to destroy planets.
"That's not possible," Kusu seemed to see through Beryl's thoughts and shook her head. "Right now, we are still Universe 10. At least, until we are completely separated from the whole multiverse, the responsibility of the God of Destruction must continue."
"How can we separate?" Beryl pondered and asked.
"Increase the comprehensive coefficient of the Universe, or your strength increases and feeds back into the Universe's laws, allowing them to be further perfected."
Kusu told Beryl many things.
And these were things that ordinary Gods of Destruction would not know.
Or rather, if Universe 10 hadn't been in this current situation, Angel Kusu wouldn't have told her these things.
"Then can other things increase the Universe's coefficient?" Beryl took out two strange glass orbs and handed them to Kusu.
"These are..."
Kusu looked at the objects in her hand, with a hint of confusion on her face.
"Something called Vision. It contains relatively special laws."
Kusu projected her spiritual power into it, and after a few seconds, withdrew it.
"Very magical; it's actually activated through wishes."
"Can it improve the Universe's laws a little?"
"No, it's too little," Kusu shook her head. "If it were the ripple of a world itself, perhaps it would work, but this is an artificial product."
"Aren't you going to ask me where I got it?"
"You naturally have your ways of acquiring things. If you don't want to say, I won't ask."
"Is that so..."
Beryl fell silent.
She was still hesitating whether to tell Kusu about the Chat Group.
Beryl had also thought of some ways to strengthen the Universe.
But it was very likely that she couldn't do it alone and might need Kusu's help.
"Let's wait a few more days."
Beryl sighed, intending to return to her room to rest.
She had received too much information today and needed to sort it out properly.
At this moment, in the Chat Group.
Uchiha Madara, who had specifically skipped to the end to watch Black Zetsu's sneak attack, had an incredibly grim expression.
[Uchiha Madara: "Black Zetsu, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, you two remember this! I, Uchiha Madara, will definitely return!"]
The mighty God of War of the Ninja World, the strongest clan leader of the Uchiha Clan, was actually played for a fool by Black Zetsu, who had a relatively low IQ..
That's right, Black Zetsu has a low IQ, especially evident when watching Naruto, Sasuke, and Kaguya's battle.
Black Zetsu?
A dog-headed strategist.
[Uchiha Sasuke: "@Uchiha Madara, put your own matters aside for now. Shouldn't you give me an explanation? Was the Uchiha Clan Massacre ordered by you and carried out by Obito?"]
Originally, he respectfully called him 'Old Ancestor,' after all, most Uchiha intermarried within the clan, and over a hundred years, collateral and direct lines were more or less related, so calling an older elder 'Old Ancestor' was not inappropriate.
But now?
Uchiha Sasuke, who was watching the projection of Naruto Shippuden, had just seen that the masked man, Obito, was one of the two perpetrators of the Uchiha Clan Massacre.
Moreover, the entire matter also involved Uchiha Madara.
Still 'Old Ancestor'?
Have you ever seen an 'Old Ancestor' who wished for his descendants to be slaughtered and even ordered someone to do it personally?
