"Hmph, Meimede, stop your boasting. We should go out in order of strength!" Beerus scoffed. "I'll go first, then Quitela, and then... the three of you can do as you please."
Sidra: "..."
Meimede: "..."
Gin: "..."
Why can the three of us do as we please?
Don't the three of us have our own strengths and weaknesses?
"Everyone be quiet. We absolutely cannot lose our composure at this moment. Everyone will get out anyway," Meimede continued. "Do you really think Grand Minister will be defeated by Vegeta? If that happens, whoever goes out first will be the unlucky one."
Beerus and the others thought carefully. If Meimede's words were true, it would be terrifying.
If even Grand Minister could be defeated by Vegeta, then what was the point of going out?
They might as well stay put honestly.
"That's impossible! How could Vegeta possibly be Grand Minister's opponent! Stop with this pointless joke!" Beerus snorted. "I'm going out first, it's a happy decision!"
The other few Gods of Destruction fell silent.
Just because you want to go out first, does that mean you can?
We haven't agreed.
The moment the bottle cap was removed, Beerus didn't hesitate and rushed out first.
However, the other Gods of Destruction also followed without hesitation, flying out with Beerus.
The five Gods of Destruction in the small bottle reached the bottle's opening almost simultaneously.
The result was predictable.
How could they possibly get out?
"We are such idiots! Why did you have to rush with me?" Beerus roared.
"You said whoever got in first gets out first!" Meimede was the first to protest.
Just then, the Grand Zeno suddenly darted in.
The moment Grand Zeno entered, Vegeta moved swiftly and sealed the lid.
The entire small bottle immediately went dark.
"Bang!"
Grand Zeno fell from the sky, his body shrinking as he crashed onto the heads of Beerus and the other four Gods of Destruction.
Beerus and the others cried out in pain.
Grand Zeno also winced in pain.
"Who else came in!" Beerus exclaimed in shock, then became furious, rubbing his head. "Damn it, you hit my head so hard! It must be Grand Minister who sent Vegeta in! Let's see how I deal with you!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Beerus immediately lunged forward, punching and kicking Grand Zeno in the darkness.
The other Gods of Destruction were also somewhat angered.
These Gods of Destruction thought carefully. It was highly likely that Grand Minister had sent Vegeta in.
This was a case of using the enemy's own tactics against them.
Was Grand Minister telling them to take revenge themselves?
The next moment, Quitela and the other four Gods of Destruction no longer hesitated and joined in, beating Grand Zeno severely.
Grand Zeno: "..."
I just wanted to watch the show, was that wrong?
Why is it always me who gets hurt?
Who did I offend?
"Stop! Stop quickly! Vegeta can't be this short!" Meimede shouted. "I feel something is not right!"
Hearing Meimede's cry, Beerus and the other Gods of Destruction immediately stopped.
However, Sidra, being a bit heavy-handed, threw a couple more punches.
"Slam!"
Meimede's palm ignited, illuminating the pitch-black space.
Then, the Gods of Destruction present were dumbfounded, staring with wide eyes at Grand Zeno, who had been beaten to a pulp by them.
His pathetic state was even more tragic than when Beerus first entered.
"What? Lord Grand Zeno!" Beerus exclaimed.
"Lord... Lord..." Meimede stammered.
The Gods of Destruction present were utterly terrified and rushed forward to kneel and pay their respects.
Grand Zeno stood up from the bottom of the bottle, brushed off the dust, his face extremely grim.
"Speak, who hit me just now?" Grand Zeno asked coldly.
Beerus and the five Gods of Destruction trembled in fear.
"It... it was Beerus who hit first!" Quitela quickly said. "We thought Vegeta had entered, so we attacked along with Beerus!"
"Lord Grand Zeno, I really thought Vegeta was sent in..." Beerus trembled in fear.
The other Gods of Destruction nodded vigorously in agreement.
Anyway, put the blame on Beerus first.
As for whether Beerus could bear it, that depended on his fate.
"Who among you hit me the most intensely just now?" Grand Zeno asked.
The Gods of Destruction present immediately turned their heads to look at Beerus.
"Why are you looking at me! I was just the first to act! I only threw three punches!" Beerus became agitated and shouted.
"I only threw two punches," Quitela said.
"I threw one punch," Meimede quickly stated.
"I threw half a punch!" Sidra said.
"I... I didn't attack!" Gin replied.
"You, who threw half a punch at me, come here," Grand Zeno pointed at Sidra.
Sidra trembled and obediently walked forward.
"Come, tell me, how do you throw half a punch?" Grand Zeno asked.
Sidra: "..."
Sidra was in a daze.
"Uh... it's like this, when I threw the punch, after hitting Lord Grand Zeno, it bounced back, and the returned fist hit my nose with a punch," Sidra replied, and as he spoke, he punched his own nose hard.
"If you say so, I also bounced back," Beerus snorted and also punched his own nose hard.
The other Gods of Destruction then proceeded to hit their own faces with their fists.
"Are you guys putting on a comedic skit here?" Grand Zeno's face darkened.
Beerus and the other Gods of Destruction immediately fell silent, kneeling obediently in a circle.
A brief silence.
The atmosphere was slightly awkward.
"Uh... Lord Grand Zeno, did that guy Vegeta also send you in?" Meimede asked cautiously.
"Not Vegeta, it was Grand Minister!" Grand Zeno clenched his fist.
"Huh? Grand Minister!"
Beerus and the other Gods of Destruction were all stunned.
Grand Minister actually sent Lord Grand Zeno in?
What did Grand Minister mean by this?
Did he want to rebel?
It was over!
Was this world going to be destroyed?
Would Grand Zeno erase all the universes after going out?
"What do you usually play in such a small space?" Grand Zeno asked.
Beerus: "..."
What else was there to play?
They didn't have any cards.
"Shall we play hide-and-seek here?" Grand Zeno suddenly had an idea.
Beerus and the other Gods of Destruction covered their faces and wept.
Was this the time to play hide-and-seek?
"Lord Grand Zeno, the space is so small in here, it would be too easy to find you," Meimede said with a wry smile.
"That's simple. We'll all shrink ourselves proportionally, small enough so that this space becomes sufficiently spacious, and then we'll play hide-and-seek. What do you think?" Grand Zeno proposed.
Beerus and the other Gods of Destruction remained silent.
Not great.
Who was in the mood to play hide-and-seek right now?
