Chapter 92: Chapter 91: Beerus Wakes Up!
"Majin Buu..." Babidi's voice trembled with disbelief as he watched Kahn obliterate Slender Buu. His eyes seemed to tear apart in anguish. "My Majin Buu!!"
It was unfathomable. Babidi, the dark sorcerer who had controlled Buu for so long, couldn't believe what he was witnessing. Majin Buu, a monster that had existed since ancient times, had fought five Supreme Kais and defeated two. Now, in the blink of an eye, Kahn had completely neutralized him, making the formidable creature seem like a helpless child.
Babidi's fear spiked as he suddenly felt the icy cold stare of Kahn upon him, a deathly gaze that made every fiber of his being shudder.
"Who are you?!" Babidi gritted his teeth, his voice laced with confusion and dread.
The overwhelming presence of death pressed in on him, his heart racing as if it would explode.
But then, something inside Babidi seemed to shift. An idea began to form. If Kahn could so easily destroy Majin Buu, perhaps he could be controlled. Babidi quickly latched onto this thought, desperate for any means to regain some sense of control.
Kahn, as if reading Babidi's thoughts, sneered. "Magician Babidi, are you thinking of controlling me?"
Babidi froze, his mind reeling in shock. "You... you know what I'm thinking?!"
"I know exactly how many hairs are on your head," Kahn teased, his voice dripping with amusement.
Kahn had seen it all before. This was the same tactic Babidi had used to control Dabura, the king of the demon world, using magic. But now, Dabura was nothing more than a piece of chocolate in Fat Buu's stomach.
Without giving Babidi a chance to recover, Kahn raised his hand. "Remember this for the next life: before you try to invade a planet, you'd better figure out who the powerful people are. Otherwise, you'll end up like today."
With a swift motion, Kahn clenched his fist.
The air around Babidi seemed to compress, suffocating him with unbearable pressure. In the next instant, Babidi exploded into a cloud of blood and mist, his form obliterated without a trace.
After ensuring Babidi's death, Kahn turned to Goku. "Goku, I'll leave the unconscious pink fat man to you. Take him to Mr. Satan. Fat Buu may be lazy, but he has a kind heart. Mr. Satan is the perfect person for him."
Goku nodded, grateful for Kahn's intervention. Kahn then turned to the still-shocked Supreme Kai. With a casual glance, he teleported away using Instant Transmission, leaving the Kai to process everything.
With Babidi gone and Majin Buu defeated, peace once again descended on Earth, but it wouldn't last long.

The time passed, and four years flew by in the blink of an eye. Now, it was August 18, 778.
In the far reaches of the universe, on Beerus' planet, the God of Destruction, Beerus, finally awoke from a deep slumber. He had been asleep for thirty-nine years, an unusually short rest for the notorious god.
"Master Beerus has only slept for thirty-nine years—quite rare," Whis remarked, sipping his cold drink and observing Beerus lazily stretch and yawn.
"Huh? Only thirty-nine years?" Beerus blinked in surprise, then groaned in frustration. "No wonder I feel like I haven't slept enough. I'll make up for it later."
"By the way, what woke you up so quickly, Beerus-sama?" Whis asked, sensing there was more to the situation.
Beerus stroked his chin thoughtfully. "I had a precognitive dream this time. In it, a strong enemy appeared. I think it was some Super Saiyan or maybe some kind of god... I can't remember the details."
"Super... Saiyan god?" Whis echoed, a confused frown crossing his face. "Is it a Saiyan?"
"It seemed like a Saiyan, but also not quite..." Beerus muttered, frustration evident on his face as he tried to recall the dream. "I really can't remember. The name was too long. Annoying."
"Oracle fish! You're still alive?" Beerus grumbled in irritation, deciding to consult his Oracle fish for help.
A small staff fell from above the palace, topped with a tank containing Beerus' pet Oracle fish, who lay lazily in the water.
"Master Beerus, do you need me?" the fish asked, sounding half-asleep.
Beerus quickly recounted the details of his dream to the fish. "Help me figure out the name of that powerful enemy. I can't remember."
The Oracle fish blinked lazily. "Hmm, I think it was called a Super Saiyan or something god, but I can't remember exactly."
"Whis, I think it's time we fed the Oracle fish two meals a day instead of three," Beerus said, clearly annoyed by the fish's vague answers.
Whis nodded in agreement. "That might help."
The Oracle fish immediately snapped awake, as if stung by the suggestion. "Ah, I remember! It's called Super Saiyan God!"
"Super Saiyan God?" Beerus' eyes widened in realization. "Wait, wasn't the Saiyan race wiped out by Frieza?"
"Yes," Whis confirmed, "Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta, but there were a few surviving Saiyans. One of them is named Kahn, and he later defeated Frieza."
Beerus raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Kahn, you say? Is he still alive?"
Whis nodded. "Yes, he is. He and the surviving Saiyans live on a planet called Earth."
Beerus thought for a moment, examining Kahn's image on Whis' staff. "But... this Kahn doesn't seem like the Super Saiyan God I saw in my dream."
Whis shrugged. "Mr. Kahn is not a Super Saiyan God, but if you wish to learn more, you might want to visit Earth and ask him directly."
Beerus' eyes narrowed, his godly instincts flashing. "Earth... Super Saiyan God... I will find out." His mind was already racing as he prepared for a visit to Earth.
Whis simply smiled. "It seems we may have another adventure ahead of us."
