Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

"...High school student?"

"Yeah, let me tell you, he was wearing a pair of old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses back then, but he was still very handsome. He spoke in a gentle and soft voice, which was really pleasant to listen to!"

Bulma could talk endlessly about Chiga, while Trunks stared at her blankly, as if he understood why Bulma in this world had no connection with Vegeta.

It's all because of Chika's existence!

Bulma talked for a while and then suddenly realized that apart from Goku and his son, and Vegeta, everyone else was looking at her with meaningful expressions, their meanings unspoken.

She knew she had been a bit too obvious, her pretty face flushed, and she coughed twice, feigning an apology, before saying...

"Anyway, as long as Chiga agrees, this is nothing at all, so don't worry!"

Trunks nodded obediently, and looking at the confident Bulma, hope was rekindled in his gloomy heart.

He looked out at the starry sky through the glass and silently recited in his heart,

"Thank you, Mom. No matter which time or space we're in, you've always given me hope, even though you might not be my mother in this timeline..."

Meanwhile, at Chiga's home,

Number 18 stared wide-eyed at Qianhe in disbelief.

"Will my future self be as evil as Android 17? Has she almost wiped out all of humanity?"

Chiga shrugged and said,

"Hmm, otherwise why would Trunks draw his sword whenever he sees you? You and Number 17 have become his psychological trauma."

"No wonder, I was wondering why he acted like a lunatic. Okay, even though the person I'm with in the future isn't the same person, I'll still forgive him. He's really pitiful."

As she spoke, 18 snuggled into Qianhe's arms and mumbled,

"Thank you, Chika!"

Chiga paused for a moment, then asked curiously,

Why are you thanking me all of a sudden?

Number 18 looked up, his expression extremely serious.

"I know that the reason my future self is so evil must be because I was brainwashed by that perverted doctor. If it weren't for you, Number 17 and I would definitely have become like that, which would be no different from being dead. So I want to thank you, thank you for saving me and my brother!"

Chika smiled after hearing this, gently patted Number 18's head, and said,

"So that's what you meant. It's nothing. Why are you thanking me? Don't think about it so much. What happened in that timeline has nothing to do with you."

"Um....."

Number 18 closed her eyes and nestled in Chiga's arms, looking just like a docile kitten.

Sitting on the sofa opposite, Bardos took a sip of her coffee. Mmm, coffee with sugar is so sweet!

Chapter 453 Time Machine

The next morning, Bulma brought Trunks to their door.

Even before Bulma could speak, Chiga already understood why she had come.

"You want me to help Trunks sort out his future, right?"

When Chiga pointed it out, Bulma suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She stammered,

"Oh, you knew all along..."

Chiga smiled slightly, about to speak, when Number 18 suddenly spoke up.

"Chiga, can you help him? I have a feeling that the tragedy of the future is related to me..."

Well, now that both girls have spoken up, Qianhe naturally has no reason not to help. He shrugged and said...

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go."

"Oh my god, is it really okay to say you want to travel through time in front of an angel like me?"

Bardos, wearing the clothes she had conjured up yesterday, walked down from the second floor with a smile.

Trunks froze, a look of fear crossing his face. The impression that Bardos had left on him yesterday was indeed very deep.

Bulma instinctively hid behind Chiga, who shook her head helplessly and said,

"Vados, stop scaring me. Didn't you say yesterday that you wouldn't interfere with the affairs of Universe 7 anymore?"

Bardos tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said with a puzzled look,

"Did you say so? I think so, but it's not really appropriate to just leave me, a guest, here like this!"

"So what do you want?"

"Hmm... how about taking me with you? This feeling of breaking the rules is quite exciting!"

"..."

Chiga and the others arrived at Bulma's Capsule Corporation, where they also saw the Hyperbolic Time Machine used by Trunks.

Bardos curiously touched the machine, clicking her tongue in amazement.

"It's incredible. Human technology can actually reach the level of time travel? It's almost as advanced as the Time Ring."

Bulma smiled smugly and said with great pride,

"Impressive, right? Let me tell you, this was invented by my future self!"

"Really? Hmm, if this gets out later, you'll be held responsible!"

"Um, actually I was just joking, do you believe me?"

Trunks introduced the time machine to everyone. Since the machine could only carry one person, his idea was for Chiga to use it alone to travel to the future.

Upon hearing this, Number 18 and the others frowned and said,

"So you mean the rest of us just have to wait here? What if Yi Qianhe doesn't come back?"

"No, we can refuel in the future, and then Mr. Chiga will be able to come back!"

Number 18 was somewhat disappointed, but given the facts, there was really nothing she could do.

Bardos thought for a moment and said,

"How about I ask the Supreme Kai for the Time Ring? That one can take people with it."

Chiga glanced at Vados and thought to herself, "You've really gone all out, haven't you? You keep saying you can't travel through time and space without permission, but now you're going to extort the Supreme Kai yourself."

Alas, indeed, whether something is sinful or not is merely a matter of a god's word.

However, Chiga doesn't dislike this behavior because he is also a god and has the power to control the rules. Sometimes, double standards are just so satisfying.

Bardos summoned her staff and said,

"I'll go now and be back soon."

Qianhe stopped her and said casually,

"No need for that. If the machine is small, just make it bigger."

Bulma paused for a moment, then shook her head with great difficulty and said,

"You mean enlarging the size of the machine? It's not that easy. I can't build this machine right now, and the raw materials for making it are extremely rare. I can't gather them all in a short time!"

Bardos didn't speak; she just quietly looked at Chiga. Her intuition told her that Chiga must have his own way.

Chiga didn't respond to Bulma immediately. He first told everyone to step back, then a golden halo suddenly appeared in his right eye, and he whispered,

"His childhood name was Biguna."

To everyone's astonishment, the time machine suddenly expanded several times without warning. The cockpit, which could only fit one person before, now looked like it could comfortably seat eight or ten people.

Even Bardos, an angel, stood frozen in place, muttering to herself,

"To change the size of matter out of thin air—could this be the power of rules? This is truly intriguing. A god who possesses both power and rules? No wonder he looked down on the position of God of Destruction..."

Trunks was completely dumbfounded. What was happening before his eyes was too fantastical. Only now did he understand what the title of "god" really meant.

God represents omnipotence and the ability to do whatever one pleases!

The golden light in Qianhe's right eye gradually faded. He hadn't used this move in a long time, and he never expected it to come in handy now.

He clapped his hands, waking the stunned crowd, and then spoke with a smile.

"Alright everyone, it's time for us to set off."

Bulma looked up at the time machine, which was several times larger than before. Even the ladders for climbing were much bigger, and she couldn't climb them at all.

Everyone present except her could fly, and she turned to Chiga for help.

Chiga immediately understood and was about to step forward when Android 18 beat her to it and picked Bulma up in a princess carry.

Bulma looked at Android 18 with a blank expression, while Android 18 smiled slightly and said,

"Miss Bulma, you can't climb up, can you? No problem, I'd be happy to help!"

After saying that, without waiting for Bulma to speak, she picked Bulma up and leaped high into the air, entering the time machine first.

Bardos watched this scene thoughtfully. She glanced at Chiga, then staggered and almost fell.

This startled Chiga. He quickly moved to Bardos's side and asked with concern,

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Although the idea that an angel was unwell sounded absurd, it was the first thing that came to Chiga's mind.

A faint blush rose to Bardos's bluish skin as she rested her hand on her forehead and said...

"Perhaps because I've been away from Universe Six for too long, my body is a bit weak..."

Chiga was taken aback, wondering if angels couldn't leave their own universe for too long? Was there such a hidden setting?

He said, frowning.

"Then I'll send you back. You don't need to take the time machine!"

Bardos rolled her eyes subtly, thinking to herself, "You big straight man, if I wanted to go back, I would have gone back long ago."

She leaned closer to Qianhe and said,
