Starting from becoming the King of Saiyans

Following Mechikabura, Lin Chen had been flying through the clouds for over ten minutes.

Dark Demon Realm is not a planet but a realm.

Thus, as the border region of a realm, the clouds of the Dark Demon Realm theoretically have no end.

Lin Chen was aware of this, so he found Mechikabura’s current actions strange and wondered what he was trying to accomplish.

Was he trying to escape the Demon Realm?

But if escape was his goal, why didn’t Mechikabura use a Space-time Door to leave directly? Instead, he was heading deeper into the clouds of the Demon Realm.

As Lin Chen pondered this, his body suddenly jolted, and he instinctively stopped.

“What’s going on? What is that?”

In front of Lin Chen’s eyes, a massive figure was faintly visible within the clouds.

The clouds of the Dark Demon Realm were exceptionally thick, and the evil ki unique to the Demon Realm suffused the clouds, so Lin Chen only discovered the terrifying presence hidden within them after getting closer.

What is that?

Seeing Mechikabura speeding towards the massive figure, Lin Chen had a growing sense of foreboding.

He began flying again, cautiously approaching the figure.

As he got closer, the massive figure finally became clear.

Lin Chen was once again shocked.

Because he finally recognized what that massive figure was…

The dark divine dragon!

The dark divine dragon that seemed to have vanished had been hiding here!

No wonder the Dark Demon Realm’s clouds remained dark even after the divine dragon disappeared; it hadn’t left.

But why was the dark divine dragon hiding here?

At this moment, seeing Mechikabura heading straight for the divine dragon without hesitation, Lin Chen immediately sped up.

Since the dark divine dragon was still here, Mechikabura might be here to make a wish.

Lin Chen had to stop this.

However, as Lin Chen got closer, he realized he might have been wrong.

The massive figure in front was indeed the dark divine dragon, but at this moment, it seemed impossible for it to grant any wishes for Mechikabura.

Because the dark divine dragon was being devoured!

In front of the dark divine dragon, a figure thousands of times smaller was holding its body, slowly swallowing it.

Yes, swallowing, not eating it piece by piece.

That figure had its mouth wide open and, somehow, was directly stuffing the entire dark divine dragon into its mouth.

When Lin Chen arrived, the dark divine dragon’s head had already been swallowed.

Next, in front of Lin Chen, the remaining massive body of the dark divine dragon was gradually being swallowed into the figure’s stomach.

The figure, with a body almost the same size as Lin Chen’s, was like a bottomless black hole, effortlessly devouring the entire dark divine dragon without any resistance.

Only after the dark divine dragon’s body completely disappeared did Lin Chen realize he recognized the figure!

Although its appearance had changed somewhat, the Namekian-like outward appearance and golden horns on its head were unmistakable…

“Zalama!”

Dragon God Zalama!

He was the one who swallowed the divine dragon?!

Moreover, seeing Zalama’s appearance, Lin Chen immediately understood that Mr. Popo had failed, and so had he.

Although Mechikabura’s true body had been sealed, their main goal of stopping Zalama’s resurrection had failed.

The figure before him was no longer a mere clone of Zalama but the real Dragon God Zalama!

Who else could so effortlessly devour the dark divine dragon, whose power rivaled that of Super Shenron?

“Zalama! I knew you had resurrected!”

Compared to Lin Chen, Mechikabura was overjoyed.

Although his true body was sealed, as long as Dragon God Zalama existed, using his Power of Miracles to free him from the seal would be a simple matter.

After all, Zalama’s power was nearly on par with Zeno!

“Mechikabura…”

Having devoured the dark divine dragon, Zalama patted his belly, looked down at his approaching companion, and smirked, “What happened to you? How did you become so weak?”

“Zalama, my true body has been sealed by Chronoa and that Saiyan! This is a clone I barely managed to save. Hurry and help me free my true body! I want to kill that Saiyan with my own hands!”

Mechikabura turned his head, glaring at Lin Chen with hatred.

But he didn’t notice that behind him, Zalama had slowly raised his hand and then reached out to grab him.

In an instant, Zalama had Mechikabura’s head in his hand.

“Za-Zalama? What are you doing?” Mechikabura cried out in alarm.

But as a mere clone, he couldn’t break free from Zalama’s grip.

“Mechikabura, I was hit by Popo’s full-strength attack while breaking the seal, and I lost some strength. I need energy to recover. The dark divine dragon only healed me about ninety percent, so I need your power to fill the rest.”

“What? Wait! Zalama! We are companions! Companions!”

“Companions? What is that? Mechikabura, we are merely using each other.” Zalama said with a cold smile.

Fear gripped Mechikabura’s heart, and the once-mighty Dark King Mechikabura screamed like a mortal. [TN: I made a mistake in previous chapters where I mentioned Mechikabura as Demon God. He is Dark King.]

But he forgot that just moments ago, he had similarly used the lives of his subordinates.

Now, the situation was reversed, and Mechikabura was the one being used.

“Don’t worry, Mechikabura. After gaining your power, I will avenge you with my own hands.”

“Wait… Zalama… wait… aaahhh!”

In front of Lin Chen, Zalama opened his mouth again, and in an instant, Mechikabura was sucked in as if into a black hole.

Having devoured Mechikabura, Zalama fell silent, seemingly digesting him.

But even then, Lin Chen dared not move.

An unprecedented fear gripped Lin Chen’s heart; he had never felt so much despair.

Although Zalama hadn’t directly shown Lin Chen his true strength since the beginning, the way he effortlessly devoured Mechikabura’s clone sent shivers down Lin Chen’s spine.

Dragon God Zalama, this is the power of the strongest deity beneath Zeno?
