Dark Demon Realm.
Talot and Future Vegeta were currently in a hidden area.
The two concealed their auras, lurking in the shadows, avoiding detection by the Demon Race in the Dark Demon Realm.
It had to be said that coming to the Dark Demon Realm gave Talot a completely different feeling than he had imagined.
Although he had been here for some time, he was still affected from time to time.
If his state of mind wasn't high enough, he could have easily been demonized.
Living in such a world for many years, who could resist being eroded by the power of darkness?
Looking around this world, it was full of eerie blood light, covering the earth, making the whole world appear exceptionally gloomy and oppressive.
Compared with the main world, these were two different extremes, and the environment could no longer be described as harsh.
It was completely a demon's lair, more like Hell than Hell itself.
And according to Future Vegeta, this was only a small part of the vast Dark Demon Realm.
At first, Talot was wondering how big it was? But after sensing it, he realized that he was indeed a frog in a well.
This world was incomparably vast, and even if Talot tried his best to expand his divine sense perception, he could not fully encompass this world.
"The deeper we go into the central area, the more Demon Race warriors there are. We must try our best to avoid being discovered, otherwise, we may be discovered and expelled before we even find Bardock." Future Vegeta said cautiously to Talot.
This had been the case all the way, so the speed was very, very slow.
If he hadn't experienced it himself, he would have doubted whether this was the Vegeta he knew.
Being cautious was a good thing, but being cautious to the point of fear made him feel unfamiliar.
"With our strength, even if we can't walk sideways, we shouldn't have to worry about being expelled if we join forces, right? In my perception, the strength of the Demon Race in this area seems to be very average." Talot finally couldn't help but ask.
Talot didn't know the foundation of the Dark Demon Realm, after all, this was his first time here, and his first time coming into contact with it.
"You're thinking too simply. I had the same idea as you back then. This world is not our home field after all. Our power will not only be suppressed, but will also continue to drain away due to the outbreak of battle... Indeed, with our strength, we can indeed sweep all the Demon Race within this Dark Demon Realm, but there are some guys who are very tricky. Once an anomaly occurs here, those guys will cross over using abilities like Instant Transmission." Future Vegeta said.
"I see, those tricky guys, are they those high and mighty Demon Gods?" Talot asked.
Seeing Future Vegeta nod, Talot didn't say anything more.
After all, he knew enough about this place, and if he messed around, it was very likely to cause big trouble.
The top priority right now was to find Bardock and rescue him.
"Let's search this area first, and then we'll split up. This way, it will be much faster." Future Vegeta suggested.
"Okay, let's do as you say, but how will we contact each other after we split up? You don't have Instant Transmission, do you? If you encounter danger, release your aura, and I can cross space to find you." Talot's lips curled up, teasing Future Vegeta.
"Hmph~! You should take care of yourself first, don't get killed halfway, otherwise even if I want to save you, it will be too late." Future Vegeta didn't take Talot's teasing seriously, but just showed his coldness.
Afterwards, the two talked for a few more words and continued to act.
It wasn't until they had searched the area that they exhorted each other before starting their respective actions.
...
Time flew by, although there was no fixed time in the Dark Demon Realm, the passage of time could be felt. A full few days had passed.
Talot and Future Vegeta acted separately. Both of them were quite skilled at concealing their auras. They had been lurking in the Dark Demon Realm for many days without being discovered by the Demon Race.
No! It should be said that those who had discovered them were already dead.
No matter how heaven-defying their ability to conceal their auras was, they would occasionally be discovered by some patrolling Dark Demon Realm warriors, but because these Demon Race warriors were weak, some with only a few hundred or a few thousand Battle Power, they would be silently killed as soon as they discovered them.
After searching for many days, at this moment, the two who had been acting separately met again.
They came to the same area. Looking around, it was a huge and eerie castle, which was creepy under the illumination of the blood-colored moonlight.
"We seem to have come to a remarkable place." Future Vegeta muttered to himself, staring at the huge Blood Moon Ancient Castle in front of him.
Talot was silent, just silently expanding his divine sense perception.
As if telepathically, his divine sense perception sensed a familiar yet unfamiliar power within this Blood Moon Ancient Castle.
Judging from the source of this power, the probability was that it was Bardock.
Within this Blood Moon Ancient Castle, there were several powerful auras.
One of them was particularly strange.
"Looks like we've found the right place. The guidance marker Whis gave me is responding, but it can't completely lock onto the location yet. But it's definitely inside," Talot said.
"Hmm? You can sense what's inside?" Future Vegeta asked, astonished.
Talot's sensory ability had reached this level.
After all, with his aura sensing ability, he couldn't clearly sense it.
This was also due to the special nature of the Dark Demon Realm, which isolated aura sensing.
"In this castle, there are several dark and evil auras. One of them is very similar to Uncle Bardock, and the remaining auras feel very strange, like dead people, but not quite," Talot replied.
"It seems we've inadvertently stumbled upon the lair of an unknown Demon Race leader. We need to carefully discuss our next course of action..." Future Vegeta said seriously after hearing Talot's words.
"Yeah," Talot nodded.
...
At the same time, inside the Blood Moon Ancient Castle.
This was one of the experimental bases of Towa, the most genius scientist in the Dark Demon Realm.
Here, various strange mechanical devices were placed, all used for human modification and Dark Demon Realm crystal enhancement experiments.
At this moment, Towa was conducting a long-planned super experiment.
In a special culture medium in front of her.
A purple-skinned child was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.
The identity of this child was not simple. In the future, he would wreak havoc in countless parallel timelines, even capturing powerhouses from various timelines for his energy experiments.
"Hasn't he finished developing yet? He's already absorbed so many S-Cells, and so many years have passed..." Mira's cold words carried a hint of urgency.
Because in a sense, this child in the culture medium was also his child.
"It's still early. He possesses the genes and S-Cells of all the excellent warriors from thousands of timelines. He's still in the development stage and needs some time to fully mature." Towa looked at the sleeping infant in the culture medium, a sinister smile appearing on her face.
This was the child she had carefully cultivated, putting in countless efforts.
As long as he took shape in the future, the Dark Demon Realm would usher in a new king.
When that time came, Mechikabura, the king of the old era, should retire!
Just as Towa was fantasizing about a bright future, the blood-colored castle's alarm suddenly went off.
This sudden change surprised Towa and Mira.
"Someone has invaded? What's going on?" Towa waved her magic staff, and a powerful evil force formed a light curtain in front of her.
In this light curtain, the figures of Talot and Future Vegeta were projected.
"Hmph!! These damned Time Patrollers again, and there's even a new face." Towa raised an eyebrow upon seeing Future Vegeta, a chilling anger flashing in her beautiful eyes.
These Time Patrollers had hindered many of her plans.
This time, they even dared to invade the Dark Demon Realm.
"Those guards are a bunch of useless trash, allowing these guys to find their way here. But since they're here, they shall stay forever." The corners of Towa's mouth rose, a chilling killing intent flashing in her dark blood-colored eyes.
The Dark Demon Realm was their home ground. Anyone who dared to invade would never return! "Do you need me to take action?" Mira volunteered.
Just right, his energy had recently surged, and through absorbing data, his combat skills and Battle Power had been sublimated.
These two intruders could be used as his practice targets.
"No need. Didn't we capture two guys from the outside world last time to modify them? Send those two guys over. It's a good opportunity to test the results of this modification and also test their combat abilities and energy index." Towa smiled coldly. As her voice fell, she quickly manipulated the instruments in front of her.
At the same time, in the shadows behind her, two Masked Warriors wearing dark masks appeared.
Now, it was time for these two tools to do their work.
...
Outside the huge laboratory.
Talot and Future Vegeta had already infiltrated the Blood Moon Ancient Castle.
The two passed through dark and gloomy tunnels until a glimmer of light appeared at the end of the darkness.
"Hmm?!"
"Something's not right!"
Talot and Future Vegeta simultaneously sensed danger.
With the help of the faint light, two Masked Warriors wearing masks and with scarlet glints in their eyes appeared in their sight.
After noticing the appearance of one of the Masked Warriors, Talot immediately thought of something.
This aura... although it's a bit dark and evil, it's very similar to Uncle Bardock's aura. Could it be... has he already been completely transformed?! After sensing the aura of the Masked Warrior in front of him, Talot was certain that it was Bardock.
Just like in the Dragon Ball Heroes storyline, Bardock had been transformed into a warrior of the Dark Demon Realm.
Not only that, but the identity of the other Masked Warrior was also very suspicious.
This guy's ki was very similar to Future Vegeta's, but not exactly the same.
"What exactly is going on? The masked guy over there has an aura similar to Kakarot, but it's not Kakarot. And the other guy... why does he have my ki?" Future Vegeta said with a solemn expression, realizing that the situation was far from simple.
The guy with a similar aura to Kakarot could be explained as Bardock, whom Talot had come to rescue, and also the main target of their operation.
But who was the other guy with the same ki as him?!
Future Vegeta was certain that it wasn't another version of himself from another timeline.
But if it wasn't another version of himself, then who was this guy in front of him?
Before Future Vegeta could think, the two Masked Warriors had already raised their hands, quickly gathering energy and locking onto them.
Whoosh~!!
Whoosh~!!
Two purple rays of destruction with extraordinary destructive power shot towards Talot and Future Vegeta.
Seeing this, the two simultaneously perked up and quickly formed ki shields.
*Boom~~!!!!* A deafening super explosion erupted at this moment.
The fire of the explosion soared into the sky, and the violent and terrifying power of destruction swept in all directions. This extreme destructive force instantly shattered the tunnel, and billowing smoke swept in all directions.
But the next second, a gust of wind raged.
Talot and Future Vegeta soared into the sky, with the two Masked Warriors following closely behind.
Their eyes collided, the two Masked Warriors were scrutinizing them, and they were also sizing up the two Masked Warriors.
"That's right, he is Uncle Bardock, transformed into this appearance by the Dark Demon Realm," Talot muttered to himself, with a strong killing intent appearing in his eyes.
If he grows to a certain level in the future, the Dark Demon Realm must be eliminated.
This hidden threat is too great.
Talot took a fighting stance, Godly Power surging around him, and instantly transformed into a Super Saiyan God.
At this moment, the Masked Bardock also took a fighting stance, dark power surging around him. With the blessing of this dark power, the Masked Bardock's Battle Power was not inferior to his Super Saiyan God at all!
This is the method of the Dark Demon Realm, by pulling the wearer's heart and soul into the abyss through this mask, it can further release their power.
The two sides were in a stalemate, neither taking the initiative to act.
On the other side, on the battlefield between Future Vegeta and the mysterious Masked Warrior.
Future Vegeta frowned, his S-Cells stirred, and golden lightning flashed around him. Future Vegeta directly entered the peak state of Super Saiyan Second Grade.
Not knowing the strength of the mysterious masked man in front of him, he could only test him out first, and must conserve his strength, just in case.
After all, this is the Demon Race's lair.
"Super Saiyan, huh? I didn't expect you to have grown to this point, Vegeta." The mysterious Masked Warrior suddenly spoke.
Future Vegeta was shocked and suspiciously asked, "You, you are??"
"Can't even recognize my voice? Hmph~ very well, let me test you first." The mysterious Masked Warrior didn't waste any words and took a fighting stance.
