Dragon ball:cosmic fighter group one-piece

On Beerus' planet, Vegeta had stopped talking in the group chat and instead stormed off in search of Krillin.

Ever since Krillin had obtained Saiyan blood, he had started acting a bit cocky. This change didn't sit well with Vegeta.

As the proud Prince of Saiyans, Vegeta felt it was his responsibility to remind Krillin that arrogance without true power was dangerous—and that there were limits even for someone with newfound strength.

"Vegeta, are you here to fight me?" Krillin asked, smiling as the Saiyan prince approached. "Does this mean I've risen in your estimation?"

Despite knowing Vegeta's reputation for pride and aggression, Krillin wasn't the least bit afraid. In fact, he felt relieved. Vegeta seeking him out meant one thing: he now considered Krillin a worthy opponent.

This wasn't something Vegeta did lightly. He only fought those he deemed worth his time. If you were weak, he wouldn't even bother to look at you—let alone challenge you.

In the past, Krillin would have never even crossed Vegeta's radar.

But now, after several hard-earned victories and even landing a few blows on Vegeta in earlier spars, things had changed.

"I recently mastered the Super Saiyan Blue transformation," Vegeta declared, a gleam of intensity flashing in his eyes. "And I want you to understand something, Krillin—under the same transformation level, you're still no match for me!"

That glint in Vegeta's eyes wasn't just pride—it was vengeance. He wanted to settle something personal.

A while back, Whis had taught them about divine power and the path to godhood. With proper training and inner understanding, any Saiyan could achieve the Super Saiyan God form through their own strength.

Naturally, Goku—having experienced godhood before—was the first among them to succeed.

Vegeta had assumed he would be the next. He was a seasoned warrior, a royal Saiyan elite, and had trained harder than anyone else.

But to his disbelief, the second person to achieve godhood was Krillin—a guy who, not long ago, was just a regular Earthling!

That moment had struck a blow to Vegeta's pride unlike any before.

Even though he later succeeded in transforming as well, the sting lingered. He had come in last—again.

Losing to Goku? That he could accept. It had happened so many times that it no longer surprised him.

But losing to Krillin?

That was something Vegeta couldn't stomach.

Back then, he'd fought Krillin out of frustration. Though Krillin put up a good fight and had improved rapidly—thanks in part to points and system enhancements—Vegeta still won.

After all, Krillin's base strength had always lagged far behind Goku and Vegeta's. No amount of sudden growth could completely close that gap overnight.

Still, the battle had been much tougher than Vegeta expected.

Krillin's strength from accumulated points wasn't for show.

Even after winning, Vegeta didn't feel entirely satisfied. He remained uneasy, knowing Krillin was catching up fast.

Then came the next surprise.

Shortly after achieving the Super Saiyan God form, Krillin pushed his limits again.

By combining the god form with the traditional Super Saiyan transformation, he achieved a state that merged both powers—Super Saiyan Blue.

With this transformation, Krillin's strength exploded once more.

Vegeta couldn't believe it when, during their rematch, he lost to Krillin.

That humiliation burned deep. Vegeta, who could only reach Super Saiyan God at the time, was no match for Krillin in Super Saiyan Blue.

It was unbearable.

But what truly made his blood boil was what came afterward.

Krillin, with a humble demeanor, actually shared his method for achieving Super Saiyan Blue with both Vegeta and Goku.

Vegeta had no choice but to accept the guidance. As much as it hurt his pride, he couldn't resist the allure of greater power.

Eventually, he mastered the transformation as well.

But the fact that he had followed in Krillin's footsteps—someone he had always viewed as inferior—was a bitter pill to swallow.

Since then, Vegeta had been itching for a rematch. This time, he would reclaim his pride.

And today, the opportunity finally presented itself.

"Vegeta, we already fought once back when we both became Super Saiyan Gods," Krillin said, shaking his head. "I wasn't your opponent back then, and even now—though I can go Super Saiyan Blue—I don't think I can win against you."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "If you're looking for a real challenge, maybe go fight Goku. He reached Super Saiyan Blue even earlier than you did."

Krillin didn't want to fight Vegeta—not out of fear, but practicality.

If it were just a friendly sparring session, he might have agreed. Training together helped everyone grow stronger.

But looking at Vegeta's eyes, Krillin could tell—this wasn't a friendly spar.

Vegeta was here to prove something. He wasn't looking for a training partner. He was looking for a target.

In Krillin's mind, agreeing to this fight would serve no purpose but to get beaten up. So he declined, trying to redirect Vegeta's attention to Goku.

What Krillin didn't realize was that his words had hit a nerve—a deep and painful one.

Among the trio—himself, Goku, and Vegeta—Krillin had been the first to reach Super Saiyan Blue.

Goku came second.

And Vegeta, once again, was last.

It was déjà vu.

He had been the last to reach Super Saiyan God… and now, he was the last to master Super Saiyan Blue too.

It was maddening.

Vegeta could accept Goku surpassing him again and again. After all, he had grown used to that. As much as it pained him, he had learned to live with Goku always being one step ahead.

But Krillin?

An Earthling? A side character in the eyes of many? Someone who only recently acquired Saiyan blood?

How could he advance so quickly?!

But the truth was undeniable.

Krillin had always been incredibly talented.

Even back in their childhood, training under Master Roshi, he had surpassed Goku in the early stages.

He was a genius martial artist, known for crafting original techniques like the Destructo Disc—one of the most devastatingly sharp energy attacks in the universe.

If Krillin had been born a Saiyan, his power might have far exceeded even Goku's.

Now, with Saiyan blood running through his veins and access to system upgrades, he was evolving at a frightening speed.

Krillin might still be a step behind in raw power compared to Goku and Vegeta, but his rate of growth was nothing short of miraculous.

He didn't just imitate—he innovated.

And that was something even Vegeta had to grudgingly acknowledge.

Far away, Jack noticed the commotion unfolding on the group chat and chuckled.

He didn't comment, just watched with mild amusement.

Seeing Vegeta so riled up reminded him how unpredictable these transformations had made everyone.

From Goku's endless drive to improve, to Krillin's sudden leap into the divine realm, and Vegeta's desperate need to protect his pride—it all felt like pieces of a much larger game.

And in that game, he, Jack, held the controller.

But for now, he was content to watch things unfold.

Let the Saiyans fight it out.

He had a new mission coming in soon—and it promised to be even more thrilling than before.
