Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

"Time is of the essence. We're heading to the future tomorrow. You've already trained in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, so it's unrealistic to expect to become stronger in a short time... However, it's not entirely hopeless. Perhaps someone can help you." Talot had already figured out how to help Trunks improve his strength.

He can't do it, but others can!

"Really? Is there anyone who can help me?!" Trunks asked impatiently, his eyes gleaming with hope.

"Come with me, I'll take you to the Supreme Kai's realm. If you want to become stronger quickly, the Old Supreme Kai can grant your wish. However, how much stronger you can become depends on your potential." Talot explained to Trunks, then beckoned to him.

Upon hearing this, Trunks immediately moved closer.

The next second, before anyone else could react, Talot used his spatial powers to take Trunks to the Supreme Kai realm of this time-space world.

"Tch! It's just unnecessary." Beerus couldn't help but mutter.

In his opinion, protecting the future timeline is utterly boring.

Vegeta's future son has considerable potential, but unfortunately, without proper guidance, his strength is just so-so, far inferior to his father Vegeta!

He knew about the potential development ability of the Old Kaioshin.

But if someone becomes so powerful that they actually tap into their potential abilities to enhance their strength, the effect would likely be negligible.

Since Talot has agreed to go to the future world, with his strength, quelling the turmoil there should be no problem for him.

After all, they were beings who could fight him to a standstill.

……

The scene changes.

In the realm of Kaioshin.

At this moment, Old Kai is giving a lesson to East Kai.

The content being discussed concerned the duties and regulations of their Supreme Kai role, as well as the rules for using the Time Ring.

Just as the lesson was halfway through, a ripple came from the space.

Talot, accompanied by Trunks, descended upon the Supreme Kai realm.

Their sudden appearance immediately attracted the attention of Old Supreme Kai, East Supreme Kai, and Jetbit.

The three of them knew something about Talot, after all, he had recently fought a great battle with Beerus and almost destroyed the entire universe.

It's hard not to know Talot.

As for Trunks, they were no strangers to him either. After all, a spacetime distortion had occurred on Earth, and Trunks came from the future; he was Vegeta's son.

But here's the question: why did Talot and Trunks arrive in the Supreme Kai's realm?

Old Kaioshin noticed Talot's gaze. Although he had doubts, he remained calm and waited for Talot to speak first.

"Hello, Old Kaioshin of this time and space world." Tarot greeted the Old Kaioshin first.

"Tarot, a Saiyan from another timeline, I can sense a divine thought left behind by me deep within your soul. It seems that you and I had some interaction in your timeline as well." The Old Kaioshin was indeed remarkable, actually perceiving this depth.

"Indeed, in my timeline, I pulled out the Supreme Kai Sword and released you. In return, you unlocked my potential abilities," Talot explained.

"I see. So you came to see me this time because you want me to help you develop your potential again? But your strength is already so great that even if I were to develop your potential again, I'm afraid the effect wouldn't be ideal." The old Kaio God guessed Talot's intentions, but he guessed the wrong person.

"I came to the Supreme Kai's World to find you, Old Supreme Kai, indeed to develop your potential, but the object of that potential development is him." Talot gestured to Trunks beside him.

"Him? Vegeta's son from a future timeline, huh?! Why do you have the divine spark of a Supreme Kai?!" At first, the Old Supreme Kai hadn't noticed Trunks, but when he took a closer look, he was startled.

Trunks is clearly a Saiyan, but he possesses the divine essence left behind by the Supreme Kai... This is the inheritance of a divine position.

Has the Supreme Kai of their timeline already passed on his divine position to him?!

"Actually, the thing is..." Trunks explained to the Old Supreme Kai about the past that happened in the future timeline.

Before the appearance of the Dark Ones, he had assisted the Supreme Kai of the East in resolving the Majin Buu incident.

Unfortunately, the power of the Demon King Dabura was too great. Although he prevented the resurrection of Majin Buu, the East Supreme Kai and Kibito also sacrificed themselves in that battle.

Before his death, the East Supreme Kai passed on his position as Supreme Kai to him.

After learning the whole story, Old Kaioshin's face showed surprise.

I never imagined that such a crisis would occur in a future world...

Since that's the case, as the Old Kaioshin, he really can't refuse this request to develop potential.

After all, they are descendants of the younger generation.

"In that case, boy, come with me. I will do my best to develop your potential abilities during this time. As for how strong you can become, I have no idea." The old Kaioshin put his hands behind his back, exchanged a glance with Talot, nodded, and then turned and walked towards the open area on the side.

Upon seeing this, Trunks expressed his gratitude and immediately followed, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

……

And just like that, time flew by.

Before we knew it, it was the next day.

At this moment, in the backyard of the Omnipotent Capsule Manor.

Goku and Vegeta have finished their rest and are ready to go, waiting for Tarot and Trunks to return.

After a day of recuperation, their physical condition had recovered well. Now, filled with pent-up anger, they were just waiting to go to the future world to seek revenge.

"Buzz~!" Just then, a ripple came from the space.

Talot returned to Earth with Trunks, who had completed his potential development.

"So you're finally back?" Vegeta appeared calm on the surface, but he was actually quite concerned about Trunks.

He is already his son.

After exchanging a glance with Vegeta, Trunks smiled, clearly having gained quite a bit.

Seeing this, Vegeta nodded without saying anything more.

"Now that everyone's here, we can set off." Sun Wukong rubbed his nose and said as he walked towards the time machine.

Seeing this, Vegeta was about to follow, but Tarot's words made them stop in their tracks.

"There's no need for the hassle of a time machine; I can just open a time tunnel to get there," Talot said, raising his hand and unleashing a massive surge of spacetime power that opened up a time tunnel leading to the future.

Actually, it was thanks to Future Trunks that Talot was able to pinpoint the location accurately.

Sun Bei and her companion were shocked, and the others were even more astonished.

Of course, now is not the time to be shocked. Seeing Talot go in first, the others followed.

As they entered, the time tunnel quickly disappeared, as if it had never existed.

……

A future world.

In Black Goku and Zamasu's stronghold.

At this moment, Zamasu had already gone to another dimension as the two Black Gokus had told him, and had replaced Vegeta's body with the Super Dragon Balls.

Zamasu now has a new identity: Black Vegeta!

"I'm still not used to this new body. I need to fight against the original body to master it quickly. Right now, I can't even transform into Super Saiyan Rosé." Black Vegeta clenched his fists angrily, feeling very dissatisfied with his current strength.

Looking at his other two selves, Zamasu, who had possessed Vegeta's body, was quite displeased. Their strength far surpassed his own, and they could both transform. Although they were the same person, this still made Zamasu, who had possessed Vegeta, quite unhappy.

"Everything takes time, there's no need to rush. My other self only needs to fight Vegeta, and you'll be able to master the Super Saiyan Rosé transformation just like me," Black Goku comforted him from the side.

As for the masked Black Wukong, he didn't speak, but just watched quietly.

I've already said what I needed to say, so there's no need to keep spouting useless nonsense.

His gaze was fixed on the dilapidated city in the distance.

At this moment, for some reason, he had a bad feeling.

He had never felt this way since he became so powerful.

Just then, three familiar auras entered their senses, along with an unfamiliar one.

"They're here again, and this time they brought one more person with them," said Masked Black Wukong.

"Hmph hmph hmph~~! Is it finally here? I can't wait to fight Goku again. Only in this way can I improve my control over his body. Super Saiyan Rosé Stage 2, I must achieve this transformation this time!!" Black Goku's face showed excitement, and Goku's fighting spirit was also ignited at this moment.

"The time has finally come for me to become stronger, Vegeta! I hope I am as you say!" A glint flashed in Black Vegeta's eyes as he clenched his fists, unable to suppress his desire for greater power any longer.

The next second, the three of them simultaneously used teleportation and disappeared from their original positions.

……

Western capital.

In the dilapidated courtyard of the Universal Capsule Company.

A time tunnel appears, and Tarot, Goku, Vegeta, and Trunks emerge from it.

"Is this the world of the future...? I had expected it, but I didn't expect it to be such a desolate scene." Talot felt a little emotional after seeing the bleak landscape of the future world.

As far as the eye can see, there are endless ruins, and the air is filled with the smell of death and despair.

"They're here." Sun Wukong turned his gaze to the distance.

"Huh? Something's not right! Why is there an aura similar to mine? What's going on?!" Vegeta sensed an aura similar to his own and was immediately horrified.

At the same time, a bold idea began to sprout in his mind.

A deafening roar echoed through the sky.

In an instant, three figures exuding an evil aura descended from the sky and landed in front of everyone.

When the evil aura dissipated, the one who appeared was none other than Masked Black Goku, Black Goku, Black Vegeta.

[It really is that guy.] The moment Tarot saw Masked Goku, he was 100% certain that this Masked Goku was Zamasu, the ridiculously powerful character from Dragon Ball Heroes.

"Who is he?" Masked Black Goku wondered after noticing Tarot.

He had traveled to so many different time and space worlds, yet he had never met anyone named Talot.

"That guy... is me?! Damn it!!" Vegeta immediately noticed the guy in front of him who looked exactly like him.

Apart from the difference in clothing, everything else is exactly the same.

Just like Kakarot, his body was also taken over.

"Vegeta, that guy stole your body?!" Goku exclaimed in surprise.

"Idiot, you don't need to tell me, I saw it myself!!" Vegeta felt a surge of rage burning within him.

As a Saiyan prince, his body was stolen by someone else.

This guy who dared to desecrate his Saiyan blood must be killed!

"Sun Wukong, we meet again. The last battle benefited me greatly. This time, I will further develop the power within your body until I surpass you, the original!" Black Wukong grinned and was the first to unleash the divine power within his body.

In an instant, dark power surged into the sky like a volcano, and the eerie and terrifying divine pressure caused space to tremble. Black Goku transformed into Super Saiyan Rosé in an instant.

Compared to before, this guy's divine power has increased significantly.

However, compared to Sun Wukong, this level of divine power is nothing at all.

"Want to surpass me with my body? Then try and see if you can do it!" With Tarot present this time, Goku wasn't flustered at all. Instead, he was provoked by Black Goku and his fighting spirit was ignited.

In an instant, the divine power energy pool within his body was mobilized, and an incomparably powerful divine pressure descended, with divine music resounding in the space.

Super Saiyan Blue Full Power, here it comes!

"Vegeta, your next opponent is me. Let me see how strong the Saiyan prince of the warrior race is." Black Vegeta sneered, and black energy erupted from his body. This dark divine power, although not as strong as Super Saiyan Rosé Black Goku, was still quite impressive.

After all, the time spent taking over the body was short, and it was only barely under control.

"You scum, do you even deserve to have my body?! You dare to defile this prince's body?! I'll grind you to dust!!!" Vegeta's anger surged.

With a surge of divine power, Super Saiyan Blue evolved and descended.

Vegeta intended to kill this damn imposter in one go.

Super Saiyan Blue Evolution appeared, and Black Vegeta was clearly startled.

At this point, he didn't even know how to transform yet. How could he possibly withstand the deep blue Vegeta in front of him?

Both Masked Goku and Black Goku believed that their other selves could take over Vegeta's body to adapt, but they didn't consider one crucial point: Vegeta wasn't Goku and would play along with their antics.

However, at that moment, Trunks, the dutiful son, stepped in. (End of Chapter)
