Start from the God of Death and break through the world.

Chapter 988 Vegeta's Behavior

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

Lu Li stood on the ground, a smirk playing on his lips. "Then why did you step back just now?"

Zamasu was broken by these words. As a god, he still had a distorted sense of pride and could not tolerate Lu Li's provocation.

In this world, he has killed all the Supreme Kais with Lu Li's body, causing the Gods of Destruction to die along with him and the angels to fall into slumber. He considers himself the only supreme god, so how could he admit that he is afraid?
"Lu Li, I have obtained the same power as you. Do you think I would be afraid of you!?"

Zamasu roared, his blood energy trembling as he spoke, demonstrating the powerful might of his primordial chaotic bloodline.

After a fierce battle with Gohan, Gohan was exhausted, but his physical recovery did not consume much ki, so there was no decline in his condition.

This made Zamasu marvel once again at the power of Lu Li's body, further confirming the correctness of his previous wish.

Indeed, his recent battle with Gohan forced him to admit that Saiyans have considerable potential, but they are still just monkeys with inconsistent fighting power.

If he relaxes his guard and fails to protect himself, he can easily be ambushed and killed. But his body is different; it doesn't need any enhancement to possess power approaching that of a God of Destruction. It's simply perfect.

Even if injured, it can recover easily with almost no cost.

"The same power?"

Lu Li remained noncommittal to this statement. "I'd like to ask you, how did you obtain this body? What about the original me in this world?"

Zamasu can cook anytime, but he needs to figure out the mystery of his body's transfer.

"To be honest, it really took me some effort to get your body."

Zamas said smugly. He didn't hesitate to explain this to Lu Li, mainly because it gave him a strange sense of accomplishment to talk about it in front of the body's owner.

"I watched the match between Universe 7 and Universe 6. You wished to switch bodies with Shenron, but the Super Shenron, despite all the hype, was completely useless and had some flaws."

As Zamasu spoke, he also adjusted his breathing and used his divine power to change into new clothes. "The dragon actually said that you don't exist in my world. Isn't that ridiculous? But I changed my approach and had the dragon turn my body into the same one as yours. This time it worked, which saves me the trouble of searching for you and killing my original body."

Upon hearing this, Lu Li finally understood how Zamas had obtained his body.

At the same time, he realized that what he said to Zamasu before killing him was useless.

Because the moment he killed Zamasu, the timeline split. Their main world became a world without Zamasu, while the split world was a world where Zamasu lived in the original timeline. In that world, Zamasu never experienced his visit.

And because the Explorer is unique, Lu Li can only exist in the main timeline. In the other timeline where Zamasu is still alive, there is no Lu Li.

From Zamasu's perspective, this is certainly hard to understand. After all, he knows of Lu Li's existence, may have even seen Lu Li in person, and watched Lu Li's battles on YouTube.

It was because he had a strong understanding of Lu Li that he longed for Lu Li's body. When the dragon told him that Lu Li did not exist, Zamasu naturally thought that this was the dragon's problem.

In fact, Super Shenron is not wrong as an 'omnipotent search engine'. Lu Li is also in its records. However, Zamasu's original wish was to swap bodies with Lu Li. Shenron could not find Lu Li in its parallel world, so it could not help Zamasu realize this wish.

Zamasu changed his wish, asking to directly transform his body into Lu Li's. This was another way, more efficient, and saved him the trouble of finding someone to kill. After it was granted, even Zamasu himself had to admit that this was the correct way to make a wish, praising his own ingenuity.

In reality, the power of the dragon is limited, as Lu Li learned when he had the super dragon help him improve his spirit seed.

The Super Divine Dragon could not elevate the Spirit Seed to its ultimate form. The level of the items required for the ultimate form was something Lu Li had never even heard of. It must be a rare item that was hard to find even at the ninth rank. The Super Divine Dragon's own power was still limited to below the ninth rank, so of course it could not replicate the treasured Spirit Seed of the space.

As for whether the Super Shenron can grant people combat skills, Lu Li felt it was hard to say. Perhaps it could, but Zamasu was rather stupid and didn't make the wish properly.

If Zamasu's wish had been 'to transform my body into Lu Li's and possess all of his fighting skills,' things might have been different; it wouldn't be such a flawed product now.

However, Zamasu has too many flaws, one of the most important being his arrogance and extreme conceit. He doesn't think his fighting skills are bad at all. After watching the YouTube video, he only thinks that the only difference between him and Lu Li is their strong physique.

"Damn it, how despicable! This isn't your power at all!"

Upon hearing Zamasu's explanation, Gohan couldn't help but shout angrily.

"This is how my body is now, and it is of course my power."

Zamasu sneered, then looked at Lu Li, "That's how it is. I didn't do anything to harm you. After actually getting your body, I realized that you and I are similar people. How about it, do you want to join forces and become the gods of the new world together?"

Upon hearing this, the others frowned, especially Trunks, who didn't know Lu Li well enough, and looked at Lu Li nervously.

Lu Li's expression was strange. "What evidence do you have that leads you to conclude that I'm similar to you?"

Zamasu stretched his body. "Your bloodline contains multiple powers, which couldn't have been formed naturally, could it? You must have devoured quite a few bloodlines. Even though it's just a copy, I can still sense how many lives you've killed with this body. I can feel the bloodlust hidden within this body. You must be very interested in fighting, right?"

"Oh? I can't really refute that."

Lu Li was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected Zamasu to be able to sense so much. It seemed that Zamasu, as the soul of a god, did indeed have some special qualities.

"Mr. Lu..."

Gohan was getting anxious. "You're not that kind of person."

Lu Li glanced at Gohan, "He's right, I've killed quite a few living beings..."

Zamasu smiled. "In that case, let's join forces and become gods of this world, and even all worlds!"

Lu Li smiled and shook his head. "You have a big misunderstanding about me. I have killed a lot of living beings, some were human and some were not, but most of the ones I killed were guys like you."

He raised his hand to signal Vegeta and the others not to act rashly. "I do enjoy fighting, but only on the premise of equal combat, not meaningless slaughter. So, Camille of the New World, is your brain a little malfunctioning?"

Zamas's face contorted with rage. "Lu Li, don't think you've got me cornered! My body is the same as yours, what can you do to me?!"

"That's why I said you're a bit dim-witted. You don't actually think your wish to the dragon is some kind of brilliant idea, do you?"

Lu Li looked at Zamasu as if he were showing pity to someone with intellectual disabilities. "Why don't you just wish for the power of the Omni-King?" Zamasu paused for a moment, then said sarcastically, "Super Shenron isn't omnipotent. How could it possibly grant me the power of the Omni-King?"

"Oh, so since you also know that the Omni-King's power is unparalleled, then what makes you think you can continue your nonsense to the end?"

Lu Li launched a series of soul-searching questions, "Besides, if the Omni-King isn't enough, you can still wish for the power of angels or the power of a God of Destruction, right? Aren't those stronger than me?"

Zamaz fell completely silent.

Because after thinking about it carefully, he realized that what Lu Li said actually made a lot of sense!
He never asked about swapping the body of the Omni-King, mainly because deep down he probably knew subconsciously that it was impossible. But why didn't he ask if he could swap the body of the High Priest, or rather, give him that kind of power?

For a moment, Zamas began to doubt himself.

"Yes, Mr. Lu, he is really stupid. But we should be glad that he is stupid. If he really becomes a stronger being, I'm afraid we really won't be able to deal with him."

Gohan's words from the side were like a fatal blow, each strike piercing Zamasu's heart.

Zamasu was extremely narcissistic and arrogant, but now he felt his intelligence being trampled on by the human trash he despised, and he couldn't control his anger.

Just as Zamasu was struggling internally, feeling that the current situation was difficult to handle, two figures appeared beside him in an instant.

To the left of Hei Luli was a man dressed in a white priest's robe with a third eye on his forehead. Luli could tell at a glance that the man was an explorer of the divine space.

"Lord Zamasu, don't hesitate any longer! Only fusion can break this deadlock!"

The priest explorer spoke, staring nervously at Lu Li, fearing that Lu Li would attack him at any moment.

Because his overall attributes weren't very high, only 255 points, he knew from watching the YouTube video that Lu Li was the kind of explorer who was not to be trifled with.

"Shenyin, have you done what I asked you to do?"

Hei Luli frowned as he spoke, seemingly still somewhat hesitant.

The person to the right of the Black Continent is Zamasu, the original Zamasu from this parallel world.

Yuan Zamasu spoke up: "Now is the time for us to unite and achieve our great cause."

Looking down at Lu Li, Hei Lu Li lacked the confidence to fight the real Lu Li, and finally nodded.

"Mr. Lu, we can't let them merge!!!"

Trunks shouted, "Those are Potara earrings! If the two of them wear one on each side, they will merge and gain superhuman power!"

Lu Li knew the measurement of Zamasu's fusion, but he didn't make a move. He just quietly watched the Explorer Divine Sound in the sky and asked, "Why?"

“I had no choice, unlike you who were born in the seventh universe.”

Shenyin said calmly, "This is the only hopeful solution I can think of."

Lu Li frowned upon hearing this. He didn't understand what the explorer meant. He could tell that the other party was not interested in slaughtering humans, and even felt disgusted by it.

But he continued to assist the two Zamas and offer them advice.

"Hey, Lu Li, don't do anything stupid."

At this moment, Vegeta spoke up. The situation was urgent, and he didn't bother with honorifics anymore. After consuming the Senzu Bean, he unleashed his power again, entering Super Saiyan Blue mode. If Lu Li didn't make a move, he would have to go up and stop Zamasu from fusing.

Lu Li looked at Vegeta with some surprise, "I didn't expect to be persuaded by you."

Vegeta scoffed, "This isn't our world, and you have no idea how much improvement fusion can bring."

Vegeta's meaning was clear: he had no right to run rampant in his eldest son's world, especially since he couldn't even defeat the unfused Zamasu before.

Vegeta, who had personally fused with Kakarot, understood that fusion was a dimensional upgrade; the power level was not simply one plus one, but an exponential increase.

Even though the other Zamasu doesn't seem that strong, he can definitely push Hei Luli's strength to another level.

"Don't worry, I know it."

Lu Li nodded, then looked at Hei Lu Li and Zamasu, "What's wrong? I've already given you time, why haven't you merged yet? If I get impatient, I'll consider killing you directly."

Shenyin, dressed in a priest's robe, was stunned by Lu Li's words. He thought to himself, "You're even more Vegeta than Vegeta!" But besides the urge to complain, he felt more uneasy.

Because he knew that none of the explorers who could live to this level were fools. Since Lu Li dared to wait for Zamas to merge, it meant that the situation was still under Lu Li's control!
For a moment, Shenyin felt both nervous and sad, and began to think about a way out.

"Hahaha... Lu Li, I'll make you regret your arrogance!"

Hei Luli laughed upon hearing this. He had been worried that Luli would attack him and Zamasu while they were merging, since they were actually quite close. At their speed, Luli could easily have stopped them while they were putting on the earrings.

But now that he heard Lu Li say that, he felt relieved, because he could sense the arrogance in Lu Li. Once a person like that makes a statement, he would never launch a sneak attack later.

"I will come, let us reign supreme over all worlds!"

With a smile on his face, Hei Luli and the other person put on the Potara earrings, one on each side. Then, their figures overlapped.

Hei Luli's face shape remained unchanged, but his skin color turned that of Zamasu. His aura surged, and he wore an expression of ecstasy, as if he had gained invincible power.

"Lu Li, now I can tell you, my other self also made a wish to the Super Dragon..."

Zamasu wore a cunning smile. "The wish is... immortality."
