"Lord Beerus! Perhaps I have a candidate." Seeing that Beerus looked somewhat flustered, Jiang Chen smiled and stepped forward before speaking.
"Oh? You have a candidate?" Beerus was surprised, and his gaze shifted to Jiang Chen instinctively.
"Lord Beerus, don't forget that Aspara San is from Universe 7, too. Just because Goku and Vegeta from that world cannot participate doesn't mean that he is unable to do so."
Upon hearing Jiang Chen's words, Whis also turned his head, seemingly realizing something, and he spoke with a gentle smile on his face.
"Ah, yes, I almost forgot about you!"
Upon hearing Whis's words, Beerus's eyes lit up, and he became visibly excited. Although Beerus still wasn't entirely clear on just how powerful Jiang Chen was, Jiang Chen's display of strength so far was enough to reassure him.
Across all twelve universes, there might not be many beings stronger than Jiang Chen.
"Lord Beerus, I'm not talking about myself!" Jiang Chen smiled and said, shaking his head with a faint sigh.
He had little interest in participating in the Tournament of Power. What mattered most right now was training.
During his battle with Frieza, he had reached the limits of his strength. This was the perfect opportunity to use the time to train seriously, and his current "Login" period wasn't going to last much longer anyway.
"Not you?" Beerus paused for a moment, his brows furrowing slightly.
"Lord Beerus, please wait a moment." Jiang Chen smiled and moved forward. As time and space flowed around him, he simply vanished from sight.
"Whis!"
Watching Jiang Chen disappear, Beerus's gaze instinctively turned to Whis as he spoke.
"Lord Beerus, that depends on you now!" Whis spread his hands and smiled gently, which only further exasperated Beerus.
But just as Beerus fumed—
Whoosh!
—a wave of illusory energy flowed, and the next moment, two figures appeared in the same place.
Everyone was stunned when they recognized them.
"Dad!"
"Dad!"
Kakarrot and Raditz called out instinctively, and even GT Vegeta's expression changed slightly upon seeing this figure. He couldn't help but glance at the GT version of Son Goku standing next to him.
"Hey, Vegeta, why does that person look so much like me?" The GT version of Son Goku poked Vegeta's shoulder and asked curiously.
"You idiot!" Speechless, GT Vegeta could only mutter a curse under his breath.
"Hey, Vegeta, why'd you curse at me? Did I say something wrong?"
"I mean just look at him, he really does look a lot like me."
"By the way, Raditz, why is that version of me calling him 'Dad'?"
Son Goku spoke with confusion, almost instinctively. But after the words left his mouth, he froze.
"Dad!" Goku muttered under his breath, his gaze drawn to the figure beside Jiang Chen. A vague memory flickered in his mind.
At that moment, his body stiffened.
Of course, no one noticed. With Jiang Chen and Bardock present, most eyes were on Bardock.
"Well, that's surprising."
"Aspara-san, this person seems to be from history. Bringing him back could disrupt time and space." Whis spoke with a gentle smile on his face.
"Kid, as a Time and Space Patrol officer, you should know disturbing time and space is a serious crime." Beerus's eyes now glowed with a dangerous light as he spoke.
"Lord Beerus, this one is not from history. And I haven't disrupted time and space either!" Facing Beerus's dangerous gaze, Jiang Chen simply smiled, looking unconcerned as he replied.
As a Time and Space Patrol Officer, he wasn't worried.
Moreover, as he said, he truly hadn't disrupted time and space.
Bardock had already fulfilled his destiny, so anything that happened afterward was irrelevant.
"Not from history?" Beerus paused, his gaze flickering to Whis.
"Oh ho ho, it seems that's actually true! My apologies." Whis examined Bardock carefully, then spoke again, still smiling.
"Whis!" Beerus's irritation flared once more.
"Lord Beerus, don't be angry. This one seems really reliable!" Seeing that Beerus was about to explode, Whis quickly tried to divert his attention.
It was a clumsy attempt at best, but with the Tournament of Power is about to begin and Beerus's focus shifted slightly.
His gaze now appraised Bardock.
Facing Beerus' imposing presence, Bardock awkwardly scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.
"Hello." He couldn't even resist greeting him.
"Let's fight! Kid, if he can't even withstand half my power then you'll need to step in. You don't want to see Universe 7 destroyed, do you?" Beerus suddenly spoke, first addressing Bardock, then turning his gaze toward Jiang Chen.
"Alright!" Jiang Chen paused for a moment in thought, then nodded in agreement.
He was still somewhat confident in Bardock.
During the past period, Bardock had been training continuously. With the Time Lookout providing an ideal environment and Bardock having removed his limits, his power had skyrocketed.
On Planet Vegeta, Bardock's talent was undoubtedly among the highest. In terms of raw potential, he might even rival King Vegeta.
After all, Bardock had reached Battle Power levels that most Elite Warriors could only dream of, despite being a low-class warrior. He had surpassed a battle power of tens of thousands under extreme conditions.
Under Frieza's oppression, he broke through and ahived a battle power numbered in hundreds of thousands.
Saiyans could dramatically increase their power each time they nearly died, but that method carried the real risk of death. Moreover, it wasn't limitless.
However, Bardock seemed exempt from such concerns.
Before he died, his power had already reached the level of hundreds of thousands.
After regaining consciousness in the past, his Battle Power had soared beyond one million, making him an incredible force.
Few could match his talent and aptitude.
Now, with an even better training environment and a brighter future ahead, his training speed was unimaginable.
He had achieved breakthroughs in a short period of time that Sun Goku or Vegeta would have needed decades to accomplish in the original timeline.
"Kid, follow me!" Upon hearing Jiang Chen's agreement, Beerus leapt into the air before speaking to Bardock.
Bardock's gaze turned toward Jiang Chen.
"Give it your all. Lord Beerus is extremely strong." Jiang Chen smiled slightly; his words carried a subtle warning as he spoke to Bardock.
As mentioned before, Beerus is among the most powerful of the twelve Gods of Destruction. Although Bardock had improved significantly in this recent time, he was still worlds apart from matching against Beerus.
