"WHY?!"
Champa suddenly shouted the words, then grabbed Old Kai by the collar and sprayed spit everywhere as he yelled, "With Beerus's personality, that lazy bastard is probably still sleeping right now! He hasn't done a damn thing, so how does he get to surpass me?!"
What else could it possibly be?
Because the other guy had Gran long before you did!
Fuwa stood off to the side, his heart sour with jealousy.
"Lord Champa, please, a little decorum!"
Seeing the ferocious look on Champa's face, Old Kai didn't dare provoke the chubby God of Destruction any further.
If this fat bastard decided to beat him up, with neither Gran nor Beerus around, there was absolutely nothing he could do about it.
"Lord Champa, think about it. Yes, my Seventh Universe has improved tremendously, but hasn't your Sixth Universe improved as well?"
Old Kai continued trying to placate him.
"Besides, Gran has now become the Candidate God of Destruction of your Sixth Universe too. We're practically family now. What's the big deal if one universe's index is a little higher or lower than the other's?"
"Hmph!"
With Gran being brought into the conversation, what else could Champa say?
He could only snort and finally release Old Kai.
The old geezer wasn't wrong.
As long as Gran was present in both their universes, their futures would only continue getting better.
It was just that seeing Beerus doing slightly better than him was something Champa instinctively couldn't stomach.
"I just don't get it!"
Champa suddenly rested one hand beneath his chin, as if deep in thought.
Old Kai looked at him curiously.
"Lord Champa, what's bothering you?"
Champa glanced at the old man and frowned.
"The Sixth and Seventh Universes are twin universes. Sure, your universe got Gran earlier than ours, but Vados just said that the reason our Mortal Levels are going to skyrocket is largely because of the Universe Martial Arts Tournament..."
"So why is your Seventh Universe improving by so much more than my Sixth Universe?"
The moment Champa said this, Old Kai, Fuwa, and Shin all fell into deep thought.
That's right!
The Sixth and Seventh Universes were twin universes. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be such a huge disparity between them.
Yet the Seventh Universe's growth was simply far too rapid.
It didn't make sense!!!
"It's because of the potential inherent to the universes themselves."
At that moment, Vados slowly spoke.
"What do you mean?"
Everyone turned their attention toward Vados.
Holding her staff, Vados pondered for a moment before explaining,
"There aren't two leaves in this world that are completely identical. No matter how similar they may be, there will always be differences."
"It's the same with you and Lord Beerus, Lord Champa. You are twin brothers, yet one of you is the elder brother while the other is the younger. And one of you is thin while the other is fat. Those differences exist as well..."
Elder brother?
Younger brother?
Old Kai, Fuwa, and Shin immediately widened their eyes.
As far as they knew, Beerus and Champa were twin brothers, but they had never known which one was older and which one was younger.
Now that Vados had said this...
Could it be...?
"Vados, why do you keep blurting out things you shouldn't?!"
Champa gritted his teeth in fury.
Ever since the day he was born, he had hated being weaker than Beerus.
And being the younger brother meant that he was destined to be forever overshadowed by Beerus.
This was the biggest secret in his heart.
Yet Vados had just revealed it in front of everyone!
Rumble!
A thunderbolt seemed to explode inside everyone's minds.
They didn't even need to ask Vados anymore.
Judging from Champa's reaction, anyone who still couldn't figure out who was the older brother and who was the younger brother would have to be an idiot!
"Oh my god!!!"
Shin covered his mouth tightly.
He had never imagined that Lord Beerus was actually the older brother.
Old Kai was naturally shocked as well, but after thinking about it carefully, it actually seemed rather reasonable.
From what he knew, Champa was almost always the one who went looking for trouble with Beerus.
Sometimes, he would even team up with the other ten Gods of Destruction specifically to gang up on Beerus.
Beerus, on the other hand, rarely went out of his way to cause trouble for Champa.
Most of the time, he simply retaliated after Champa provoked him.
And whenever Beerus came across something good, he would even deliberately save some for Champa...
Wasn't that exactly how an older brother spoiled his younger brother?!
Fuwa also remembered all the trouble Champa had caused Beerus over the years, and he was rendered completely speechless.
Right now, there was only one thing he wanted to say:
Isn't having such a powerful older brother protecting you enough?! Why do you spend all day messing with people? Thank goodness your brother doesn't hold a grudge against you!
"Oh-ho-ho-ho~"
Vados covered her mouth and giggled.
"I'm sorry, Lord Champa. I forgot that was your biggest secret."
"You..."
Champa was both furious and embarrassed.
Vados had absolutely done that on purpose!
"What? Does Lord Champa want to exchange a few moves with me?"
"..."
Champa's face immediately went dark.
Having an angel who threatened her own God of Destruction at the drop of a hat...
He really must have committed eight lifetimes' worth of bad deeds to end up with such a devilishly devious angel.
"Hmph! Stop changing the subject. What exactly did you mean by the universe's inherent potential?"
Champa was genuinely afraid that Vados would beat him up again, so he hurriedly steered the conversation back to the main topic.
As for his greatest secret being exposed?
What could he do about it?
He could only swallow his pride and endure it!
Everyone perked up their ears again.
"Speaking of the inherent potential of a universe, we have to go back to the changes I witnessed in the Seventh Universe."
A look of remembrance flashed through Vados's eyes.
"Before I encountered Gran, the Seventh Universe was filled with unqualified planets."
"Those unqualified planets had blinded me to the truth. For the longest time, I believed that the Sixth Universe possessed greater potential than the Seventh."
"But after Gran cleared out all those unqualified planets from the Seventh Universe, I realized that wasn't the case at all..."
