"Bang!"
Vegeta didn't bother talking to Toppo any further and kicked him directly in the face.
Toppo, hit by the blow, also sported a shoe print on his face.
"Whoosh!"
Vegeta flickered and swiftly appeared directly above Toppo.
"Bang!"
Vegeta delivered a reverse kick, striking Toppo squarely on the shoulder.
Toppo let out a scream and plummeted from the sky.
"Rumble!"
Toppo crashed into the Pride Troopers' headquarters below, leaving a massive crater in the ground.
The conference room of the Pride Troopers' headquarters was instantly smashed to pieces.
"Tsk." Vegeta spat, his hands still in his pockets.
High above,
Toppo rapidly appeared beside Vermoud.
Toppo was taken aback.
It was truly Lord Vermoud.
Lord Vermoud had really come.
And... that elephant-like God of Destruction, was that the God of Destruction from the Tenth Universe?
"Greetings, Lord Vermoud, Lord Marcarita." Toppo immediately stepped forward to pay his respects.
Just as Toppo stepped forward to bow, Vegeta at that moment kicked Toppo out of the air.
Toppo's scream echoed from below.
"That bastard!" Toppo gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly.
"No need to come and pay your respects." Vermoud's face darkened, "Just as that brat said, he's an acting God of Destruction from the Tenth Universe, so you go and teach him a lesson!"
"I know what to do, Lord Vermoud." Toppo bowed again.
"Whoosh!"
Immediately after, Toppo plunged from the sky, charging towards Vegeta's location.
"Rumsee, your disciple isn't so simple, is he?" Vermoud chuckled.
"He's alright," Rumsee laughed heartily, his expression growing even more pleased.
"Are we just going to let them fight like this? Shouldn't we add some spice?" Vermoud asked with a smile.
"What kind of spice are you thinking of?" Rumsee inquired.
"How about the loser works for the winner for 100 years?" Vermoud proposed, "A good deal, wouldn't you say?"
"Work for 100 years?" Rumsee flicked his elephant trunk and muttered softly.
"I happen to be planning to retire within these 100 years, so if you lose, you'll work for me for 100 years. It'll be a good way to help out my disciple and let him get familiar with the work of a God of Destruction," Vermoud said with a smile.
"Then, what if I win?" Rumsee asked, puzzled.
"If you win, I'll have retired... I'll have nothing to do, so coming to your universe to help you out, to destroy planets, might be quite interesting," Vermoud stated confidently.
"What you're saying makes sense. Let's decide on that, then." Rumsee readily agreed, "If Vegeta loses, I'll work for you for 100 years."
"Alright, if Toppo loses to Vegeta, I'll work for you for 100 years!" Vermoud nodded.
Kusu and Marcarita did not interject.
Gods of Destruction often made such wagers.
Below.
Toppo plunged down, appearing directly in front of Vegeta.
"Acting God of Destruction from the Tenth Universe!" Toppo grunted.
"My name is Vegeta, you can call me by my name," Vegeta said with his hands in his pockets, a smile on his face.
"My name is Toppo," Toppo stated his name.
"There's no need to say your name, you're just an insignificant nobody," Vegeta chuckled lightly.
"Whether I'm insignificant or not, you'll find out soon enough," Toppo snorted coldly. "Let's begin! This is about the honor of the Gods of Destruction!"
"Bring it on," Vegeta kept his hands in his pockets and wiggled his toes at Toppo.
Toppo: "..."
This was too insulting.
"Take your hands out!" Toppo's face darkened.
"Why would I need my hands to deal with someone like you?" Vegeta's smile widened.
Veins bulged on Toppo's forehead, and anger flared in his eyes.
"Kid, I hope you don't regret this," Toppo snorted coldly and quickly charged towards Vegeta.
"Bang!"
Toppo threw a powerful punch at Vegeta.
Vegeta, still with his hands in his pockets, lightly raised his knee, using it to block Toppo's fist.
"Bang!"
Vegeta then delivered a swift kick, striking Toppo directly in the chest.
Toppo, hit by the blow, slid backward.
However, Toppo immediately extended his arms, unleashing his immense energy, and stopped himself in mid-air.
"You damned brat!" Toppo bared his teeth.
This kid is much stronger than I imagined.
Toppo fixed his gaze towards Vegeta's direction.
But as he looked, Toppo's expression changed.
Vegeta had vanished from his original position at some point.
"What? Where did he go?" Toppo's expression grew increasingly grave.
"Eat my leg!" Vegeta exclaimed, his voice now coming from directly above Toppo.
"Whoosh!"
Following that, a leg descended rapidly from the sky.
Toppo: "????"
Toppo froze for three seconds.
What was going on?
Why did it feel like a leg was falling?
Did he accidentally kick his own leg off when kicking me?
"Bang!"
Toppo snorted coldly and swatted away the incoming leg.
However, just as Toppo swatted Vegeta's leg away, Vegeta instantly appeared directly in front of Toppo.
"Bang!"
Vegeta powerfully drove his knee upward, striking Toppo squarely on the chin.
"Oww..."
Toppo let out a scream, hit by the blow.
"Bang bang bang!"
Vegeta proceeded to deliver a flurry of kicks to Toppo with one leg.
Toppo: "..."
You bastard...
You only have one leg left, and you're still kicking so vigorously?
"Whoosh!"
After kicking Toppo a few times, Vegeta swiftly moved to a position directly above him.
"Bang!"
Vegeta swung his tail, which lashed out and struck Toppo hard in the face.
Instantly, a bright red mark appeared on Toppo's face.
"Take another leg from me!" Vegeta quickly flew to his severed leg and kicked it.
"Whoosh!"
Vegeta's detached leg flew rapidly towards Toppo and connected with his face.
Toppo tumbled several somersaults.
Vegeta, unhurriedly, regenerated his severed leg.
Throughout the entire exchange, Vegeta's hands remained in his pockets.
"Hmph!"
Toppo extended his arms, his energy surging, stabilizing his body.
He then wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression becoming even more solemn.
High above.
"Vermoud, your disciple is no good, far from it," Rumsee roared with laughter.
