From Gran's observation, Irene currently possessed a battle power of around ten million. She looked to be only about eighteen years old, yet her talent was undeniably impressive.
As for Bella, her battle power was only around three million—just barely meeting the threshold required for transformation. Compared to her younger sister, she was far behind.
To transform into a Super Saiyan, three conditions were required:
The first was S-Cells.
The second was sufficient base battle power.
The third was intense rage.
For ordinary Saiyans, accumulating a large number of S-Cells generally required living in an era of peace or undergoing a major change in mentality.
For the Saiyans of Universe Seven, fulfilling the S-Cell requirement might be difficult.
But for the Saiyans of Universe Six, S-Cells were the one thing they lacked the least.
After all, they had always lived in a peaceful age.
That was also the reason why Universe Six Saiyans possessed such high base battle powers.
As for battle power, Irene already met the requirement.
That left only one thing—
Rage.
During the short time Gran had spent with her, he had noticed that this girl had a remarkably gentle personality.
Most likely, she simply couldn't generate enough anger.
That was the true reason she had never been able to transform.
"Transform into a Super Saiyan?"
Irene's eyes lit up with excitement.
After Gran withdrew his divine pressure, she rose back to her feet.
"My lord, can I really do it?"
She wasn't stupid.
After everything she had just witnessed, she knew that the mysterious man before her possessed an unimaginable background.
If he said he could help her become a Super Saiyan, then he absolutely could.
"No!"
Bella stood up as well once the pressure disappeared.
Her eyes were filled with venomous hatred.
In the past, she had suffered enough from being looked down upon by others.
Now, after finally surpassing her younger sister and becoming a Super Saiyan first—
She would never allow Irene to surpass her again.
"Sister, you..."
Irene staggered slightly.
She had never imagined that her sister hated her to this extent.
"Of course you can."
As if he hadn't heard Bella's objection at all, Gran's expression became increasingly enigmatic.
"So?"
"Do you want to transform?"
"Yes!"
Irene clenched her fists tightly.
"My lord, please help me!"
"Good."
The smile on Gran's face became even stranger.
His gaze remained fixed on Irene.
Yet at the same time, he slowly raised a hand and pointed it toward Bella once more.
"Watch carefully."
"You'll transform very soon."
Wasn't rage the only thing she lacked?
In Dragon Ball, all it usually took was sacrificing someone close to a Saiyan.
That would certainly generate enough anger.
"Destruction."
Gran spoke two simple words.
The purple radiance in his palm instantly erupted.
The moment the power of universal law manifested.
The heavens and earth seemed to lose all color.
Boom!
Bella was still shouting "No!" when the purple light engulfed her.
Her body gradually dissolved into countless specks of starlight.
"W-What's happening?"
"AAAAAHHHH! It hurts!"
"My lord, I was wrong! Please spare me!"
Half of Bella's body had already vanished.
Seeing this...
Irene's pupils contracted violently.
Then an overwhelming fury exploded from within her.
"SISTER!!!"
Her eyes nearly split apart from rage.
Golden flames burst around her body.
Her hair instantly turned brilliant gold.
At the same time, her battle power skyrocketed—
Reaching five hundred million.
The training grounds were filled with Saiyans.
Every one of them witnessed Irene's transformation.
"It's Irene! She finally generated enough rage to transform!"
"What a pity. She had to lose her sister to achieve it."
"Hmph! Irene has protected Bella all these years, but Bella has spent every day trying to drag Irene down with her. Didn't you see what happened just now? Irene only wanted to become a Super Saiyan, and Bella opposed her every step of the way. Bella never deserved to be called Irene's sister!"
"Exactly. For a Saiyan like Bella to exist among us is a disgrace. She should've died long ago."
"..."
Saiyans like Bella were common in Universe Seven.
But in Universe Six, they were rare exceptions.
She was practically an outcast among Saiyans.
Her death stirred some emotions among the crowd—
But not much.
The one most affected was Irene.
"All right. I see Jim now. Thank you for leading the way."
With his hands clasped behind his back, Gran began walking toward Jim.
Left behind, Irene stood frozen in place.
Slowly, she closed her eyes.
Tears soon streamed down her cheeks.
Her sister was truly gone.
"Greetings, Lord Gran!"
When Jim saw Gran approach, he immediately bowed respectfully.
The surrounding Saiyans instantly erupted into an uproar.
Jim had once been a Candidate God of Destruction.
Yet even he was showing such respect toward this mysterious man.
Just who was he?
"Mm. I came here because there's something I need you to—"
"Lord Gran, may I speak with Irene first?"
Jim was worried.
If Irene developed hatred toward Gran because of Bella's death and accidentally angered him, Planet Sadala might end up suffering Gran's wrath.
"..."
Gran waved his hand dismissively.
"Go ahead."
Jim immediately moved to Irene's side and spoke quietly with her.
Throughout the conversation, Irene continued nodding.
Finally, Jim said:
"All these years, I've seen everything between you and Bella."
"She never deserved to be your sister."
"In fact, someone with her personality never deserved to call herself a Saiyan of Planet Sadala."
"Mm."
"You've probably endured her for a long time already. She's dead now, and that's that. In a way, Lord Gran helped free you from Bella's shadow."
"I hope you won't hate him for it."
"Lord Jim... may I ask you something?"
"Go ahead."
"Who exactly is Lord Gran?"
"Then I'll tell you."
"He is also a Candidate God of Destruction."
"But unlike us, he's far stronger."
"In fact... he may even be stronger than an actual God of Destruction."
"What?!"
"..."
The small incident soon passed.
Before long, Jim returned to Gran's side.
"Lord Gran, I'm ready now."
"Please give your orders!"
