"The Oracle Fish possesses the ability to foresee the future. Its existence is meant to assist Lord Beerus in maintaining the balance of the universe. Every once in a while, it will speak some prophecies about the future, and then Lord Beerus will make corresponding preparations based on those prophecies, dealing with unstable factors that could endanger the universe in advance. As for your sudden arrival, the Oracle Fish made no prophecy at all. That means your existence will not endanger the development of this universe." Whis saw through Talot's thoughts and slowly explained the information about the Oracle Fish.
Hearing this, Talot nodded seriously. "I've heard of it, but this is my first time seeing it."
In fact, the future Whis had mentioned the Oracle Fish before, but he hadn't explained it in depth.
After sighing once, Talot turned around and faced Whis directly, getting straight to the point. "Now that we've arrived at the God of Destruction's Planet, it's time to talk about the real matter."
"Mm, although Lord Beerus said we should discuss the rest after he finishes resting, that would be too late." Whis responded, then continued, "Regarding your special situation, on the way back just now, I already contacted the Supreme Kai of Time Chronoa, and informed her of the specific circumstances. She should be arriving soon."
"She's already about to arrive?" Talot was shocked when he heard this.
After all, they had been together the whole time, yet he had no idea how Whis managed to do it.
This was the communication ability of an Angel.
Splash—!!
Suddenly, at the side of Talot and Whis, space began to fluctuate. A ripple appeared and eventually transformed into a space-time passage.
From within this space-time passage, a very special power flowed out.
This power seemed like God Ki, yet it wasn't ordinary God Ki. Instead, it was somewhat similar to the power of space-time that he had comprehended.
Immediately afterward, under the gaze of Talot and Whis, a red-skinned little girl wearing divine attire and no taller than one meter fifty walked out.
This little girl was none other than the current Supreme Kai of Time, Chronoa.
"I'm here, Whis. Is he the Saiyan who traveled through time that you told me about?" As soon as she stepped out of the space-time passage, Chronoa saw Talot.
"That's right. His name is Talot, and he comes from a timeline five million years in the future. I've already informed you about the reason he came here. It involves the Demon Realm. Lord Beerus and I cannot conveniently intervene, so we can only rely on you." Whis said with a smile.
"Well, that may be so…" Chronoa's gaze wandered back and forth across Talot.
As the Supreme Kai of Time, her perception was extremely sharp. After only a few glances, she had already seen how strong Talot was.
Average—neither particularly strong nor particularly weak. But with this level of power, if he wanted to go to the Demon Realm to rescue someone, it would be nothing more than going there to die.
However, the strong space-time aura around Talot made her look at him with a bit more interest.
"You're quite special. I can sense the power of space-time within your body. However, you're too weak right now to fully bring out that power. And with your current strength, don't blame me for being too blunt, you're far too weak." Chronoa did not soften her words at all and directly stated that Talot's strength was insufficient.
"Weak?" Talot raised his eyebrows. Although he was unwilling to accept it, if it involved those monsters, then he was indeed weak.
"Looking at you, you don't seem very convinced." Chronoa saw the unwillingness in Talot's heart and revealed a mischievous smile. Then she raised a finger and continued, "How about this, if you can break free from my space-time restraint, I'll take back what I just said. How about it?"
"Hmph~!" Talot snorted lightly. He originally had no intention of confronting her head-on, but since Chronoa wanted to toy with him, he might as well use this opportunity to test how strong she really was.
With Talot's agreement, Chronoa giggled and directly activated her ability.
"Time Freeze!!!"
In just an instant, Talot clearly felt his body mercilessly frozen by this power of space-time. Apart from his consciousness remaining intact, his body could not move at all, and the energy within him could no longer be mobilized in the slightest.
If he had not also mastered the power of space-time, even his consciousness would probably have been frozen.
"Now you understand the gap between us, right? Let me tell you, this isn't even one ten-thousandth of my space-time power. In the Demon Realm, their king Mechikabura possesses magic power equal to mine, and may even be stronger than me. If you only have this level of strength, entering the Demon Realm will only lead to death. Forget about rescuing your companion." Chronoa shook her head in disappointment, then released the space-time power restraining Talot.
With control over his body returning, a cold glint flashed in Talot's eyes.
He truly was not strong enough yet. If he wanted to change fate and bring Bardock back, he had to reach a higher level.
Although Chronoa's words were harsh, they were the truth.
Talot said nothing and simply remained silent.
He accepted that he was weak right now, but that did not mean he would remain weak forever!
Chronoa saw the unyielding determination in Talot's eyes.
"I won't tease you anymore. Since things have come to this and I already know about it, I won't stand by and do nothing. However, to rescue the Saiyan named Bardock from your world, we'll have to wait one year. Right now everyone is busy across various timelines. Only after a year will there be free time. At that time, I'll dispatch a powerful Time Patroller to assist you in the operation. How about it?"
"During this one year, I also hope you'll do your best to improve yourself. Whether Bardock can be rescued will depend on you."
Chronoa put away her playful attitude and spoke seriously.
"One year?" Talot was somewhat surprised.
In other words, he would have to stay here for one year to grow stronger before going to the Demon Realm.
"During this year, I will do my best to guide your training. Presumably the future me had this intention as well, to have the me of this timeline guide you." Whis's words enlightened Talot.
Everything seemed too coincidental. The future Whis must have known long ago that so many things would happen, so everything now had already been calculated by the future Whis.
Receiving guidance from the Whis of this timeline, and now being on the God of Destruction's Planet, he had in fact already obtained Beerus's approval.
"Alright, alright. I'm still very busy. See you in a year. If you're still like this by then, there really won't be anything I can do." Chronoa left these words behind. After saying goodbye to Whis, she turned and entered the space-time passage.
As she stepped in, the space-time passage quickly closed.
Crack—! Talot clenched his fists tightly, turning the unwillingness in his heart into motivation.
