Gods of Destruction Realm
Angel Whis, his entire body charred black, was happily slurping up a bucket of instant noodles.
"Ahh… as expected, Laotan sauerkraut flavor is the best!"
"Mr. Katakana, thank you so much! I never expected you to be so generous, giving me the last sauerkraut-flavored instant noodles you had. I'm truly touched!"
While tasting the delicious noodles, Whis made sure to express his gratitude, savoring each bite.
It seemed that when it came to food, even his burned appearance didn't bother him in the slightest!
Seeing Whis so easily won over by food, Katakana couldn't help but laugh.
After all, he still had some Senzu Beans left.
So at this moment, Katakana had already fully recovered, and he could clearly feel that his strength had improved significantly.
The growth was noticeable even to himself.
Previously, Katakana had thought that with the combination of Super Saiyan God Rosè 3 attack rate and Ultra Instinct, he should at least be able to injure Whis.
But he had underestimated an Angel's power.
Even after expending nearly all of his divine energy in his final attack, Whis only ended up with some burnt hair from the Super Kamehameha.
There were no serious injuries at all!
This left Katakana deeply shocked.
His power was still far from Angel-level—let alone defeating one.
Just then, a mechanical voice suddenly rang in his mind—
[Ding! The system has released a new check-in mission! Please travel to the 11th Universe Supreme Kai's realm and defeat the Gods of Destruction candidate, Toppo!]
[Ding! Friendly reminder: You can ignore this mission, but the rewards are exceptionally generous!]
Hearing the system's prompt, Katakana immediately stood up.
—Travel to Universe 11 and defeat a Gods of Destruction candidate?!
"Exceptionally generous rewards… and you're telling me I can skip it?"
If Whis weren't right next to him, Katakana would have cursed out loud.
If the rewards were that great, why would he ever ignore the mission?!
This was like someone stripping off their clothes, dancing in front of Him, and then repeatedly shouting nonsense like "daba daba daba"—
No way!
There was no question about it—Katakana Had to go to Universe 11!
Besides, the battle just now had taught him an important lesson.
Although his strength was overwhelming for ordinary warriors, he was still no match for Gods of Destruction or Angels.
Fighting Whis had been a harsh wake-up call.
If he wanted to grow stronger, he had to keep pushing his limits.
"Burp—!"
At that moment, Whis gulped down the last of the soup and let out a satisfied sigh.
"Mr. Katakana, aren't you going to eat?"
Noticing that Katakana hadn't touched his stewed chicken and mushroom flavored noodles, Whis licked his lips and asked.
"Not hungry" Katakana replied casually.
Thanks to the Senzu Bean he had eaten earlier, he wouldn't feel hunger for at least ten days.
Right now, all he wanted was to get to Universe 11 as soon as possible and complete his mission.
There was no telling what the reward would be—Maybe something even greater than Angel-level power!
After all, the system itself had emphasized how generous the reward would be.
"In that case, I won't be polite!"
Seeing Katakana nod, Whis immediately grabbed the untouched bucket of noodles and began devouring it.
"Mr. Whis, you know how to travel between universes, right?" Katakana suddenly asked.
While he had Unlimited Instant Transmission, there was a limitation—
If he wanted to teleport across universes, he needed to have been to the target universe before.
Otherwise, without precise coordinates, the attempt could be extremely dangerous.
"Hmm? Of course, I do! But why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Whis slurped up some more noodles before looking at Katakana curiously.
"Mr. Whis, after fighting you, I realized something…I'm still too weak. But in our universe, aside from you, I have no real opponents. So, I want to travel to other universes and challenge their strongest fighters. I believe this will greatly aid my training!"
Katakana spoke seriously.
Though his main goal was completing the system's mission, he genuinely believed in the importance of fighting strong opponents to improve.
That was the essence of true Training.
Training alone could help, but nothing compared to battling powerful warriors!
"Oh! I see… But if it's just about facing strong opponents, you don't actually need to leave Universe 7. I can spar with you anytime—"
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Before Whis could finish, Katakana quickly interrupted.
"Mr. Whis, I know how strong you are. But I don't want to keep getting beaten down by you!"
While fighting Whis could indeed help him grow, it would also mean getting completely outclassed every time.
He didn't want to be treated like a training dummy forever.
Besides, if he stayed in Universe 7, who would complete his check-in mission?
That was obviously out of the question!
"Ah… I see."
"Alright, I can send you to the universe you want to visit. But, Mr. Katakana, you'll need to agree to a few conditions!"
Whis put down the now-empty noodle bucket and smiled.
"Mr. Whis, just tell me what they are."
Katakana responded calmly.
"First…" Whis cleared his throat. "Mr. Katakana, you still have some of those food capsules left, right…?"
A slight blush appeared on Whis' face as he hesitantly made his request.
Earlier, when Katakana was holding the noodles, Whis had noticed that he still had a few food capsules in his possession!
"I can give you three! I need to keep the other two for myself as emergency rations when I travel to other universes."
Without hesitation, Katakana took out three food capsules and handed them over.
Everyone in the Dragon Ball universe knew—
Outside of Earth, finding edible food was a gamble.
Who knew what kind of poisonous substances existed in other universes?
So naturally, Katakana had to keep some for himself!
"Gulp… THREE of them?!!"
Whis took the three capsules, his heart filled with excitement.
Honestly, he had only expected to get one.
After all, just a single capsule contained an incredible variety of delicacies.
But now, he had three!
"Alright, now we're good, right?" Katakana asked.
"One more thing, Mr. Katakana!"
Whis suddenly became serious.
"If you provoke a Gods of Destruction or an Angel in another universe and your life is in danger, just shout my name. I will come to your rescue immediately!"
Whis patted his chest confidently.
Even if he couldn't necessarily defeat other Angels, he had absolute faith in Katakana's potential.
Plus, once he reported Katakana's situation to the Grand Priest, it would definitely draw attention!
