Dragon Ball:Vados is my Wife

"Eh? Can't he participate?"

Hearing the gods' discussions, Zeno blinked his adorable little eyes, seemingly displeased with their protests.

The Grand Priest also noticed Zeno's dissatisfaction and immediately waved his hand. As the gods fell silent, he smiled slightly and said, "Lord Kahn is participating in the Tournament of Power at the request of Lord Zeno. Do any of you have objections?"

The Gods of Destruction, who were still protesting Kahn's participation, immediately stiffened and fell silent.

If Kahn had volunteered to participate, they might have attempted to reason with Zeno. But since it was Zeno's personal request...

Who would dare to object?

Unless they had a death wish!

While the other Gods of Destruction were frustrated by Kahn's participation, Beerus was secretly ecstatic.

Truly, some rejoice while others grieve.

For the other universes, Kahn entering the Tournament of Power was the worst possible news.

But for Beerus, it was the best news he had ever heard.

"Hehehe, dear, it looks like everyone is unhappy about your participation in the Tournament of Power," Vados said, covering her mouth and giggling as she looked at the aggrieved expressions of the other gods.

"I understand their frustration. If I were in their place, I'd be mad too."

Champa and Quitela's protests were expected.

Anyone would feel the same way.

After all, bringing in someone far beyond the level of the competitors was already an unfair advantage—it was practically a one-sided massacre.

So, it was natural for the Gods of Destruction to protest.

But that was irrelevant.

After all, once the Tournament of Power was over, everything would return to normal.

At this moment, seeing the gods had no further objections, the Grand Priest sent everyone back to their respective universes.

Back in Universe 7's Sacred World of the Kais...

"HAHAHAHAHA!"

The moment they arrived, Beerus burst into laughter.

"Lord Beerus, what's so funny?" Goku asked, scratching his head in confusion.

"Did you see those bastards' faces?! Their expressions were priceless! I was laughing so hard I almost cried!"

Beerus held his stomach, laughing uncontrollably.

"Now's not the time for laughter. Shouldn't we focus on selecting the fighters for the Tournament of Power?"

Vados smirked. "Even including my husband, we only have four fighters so far."

"Ahem!"

Hearing Vados' remark, Beerus quickly stopped laughing and tactically coughed. "Lord Kahn, do you have any good recommendations?"

Beerus figured that Kahn would know Universe 7's warriors better than he did, so it was best to ask him for advice.

However, upon hearing Beerus' question, Kahn rolled his eyes and scolded him, "Are you the God of Destruction, or am I? You want me to do everything while you just sit and wait for victory? Are you serious?"

Beerus immediately flinched, his ears drooping. "L-Lord Kahn, that's not what I meant! I was just—"

Whis chuckled and interjected, "Lord Beerus, you are the God of Destruction of Universe 7. Lord Kahn is participating as a fighter, not as a decision-maker. The responsibility of selecting the team should fall on you."

"Kahn, if you don't change your attitude, you'll regret it when I officially take over as the Grand God of Destruction!" Kahn continued to berate.

It was no wonder Universe 7 had one of the lowest mortal levels.

With such a lazy God of Destruction, how could the average power level of the universe improve?

In the original timeline, Universe 7 even had to recruit Master Roshi and Krillin for the Tournament of Power—what a joke!

"I'm sorry, Lord Kahn! I'll change my ways!" Beerus stammered.

"Haha, Brother Kahn, why don't I go back to Earth to gather fighters? Lord Beerus isn't too familiar with the strong warriors on Earth," Goku said, trying to ease the tension.

Kahn shot Beerus one last glare and warned, "This is the last time, Beerus. Don't slack off again."

Beerus bowed his head in shame.

Kahn ignored him and said, "Alright, let's head back to Earth."

Back on Earth...

Kahn sent Goku to find Piccolo while he, Vados, Whis, and Beerus returned to Capsule Corporation.

"Oh? Beerus and Whis are here too?"

Seeing them arrive, Bulma and Android 18 quickly greeted them.

"Husband, what happened?"

Android 18 furrowed her brows slightly.

"Let's go inside first."

On the second-floor balcony, Kahn briefly explained the situation regarding the Tournament of Power.

After listening, Android 18's expression hardened. "If we lose, the entire universe will be erased? That's terrifying!"

"I knew Lord Zeno was dangerous..." Beerus muttered, rubbing his face.

"Regardless, the Tournament of Power is happening. Right now, we need to focus on gathering our ten fighters," Vados said as she listed the confirmed participants:

Kahn

Goku

Vegeta

Gohan

Goku had gone to find Piccolo, making it five fighters.

"That means we still need five more," Whis noted.

Gohan then suggested, "If we're short on people, we could recruit Tien and Krillin."

Before Kahn could respond, Android 18 immediately objected.

"Forget about them. Their strength is nowhere near ours. Why not let me, Android 16, and Android 17 participate? After all, we can't just sit back when the fate of the entire universe is at stake."

"Husband, what do you think?" Vados turned to Kahn.

Android 18 was right. She, along with Android 16 and 17, would be valuable assets.

Kahn nodded. "That was my plan from the start."

With the three Androids confirmed, Whis continued, "That brings us to eight participants. We still need two more."

Before Whis could finish, a cheerful voice interrupted.

"The last two spots are obviously ours!"

Everyone turned toward the source of the voice.

Standing at the entrance to the balcony were Rados and Shin, both brimming with excitement.
