Chapter 1: The Mysterious Visitor

This time, the experience of the Tournament of Power once again made John and his friends realize one thing: they must fully excavate their potential.

In the whole Tournament of Power, several powerful individuals were not relying on transformations to increase their strength, such as Jiren, Hit, Toppo, Dyspo, and others.

Compared to them, even if John and his friends awaken Ultra Instinct and fight evenly with Jiren, their stamina consumption far exceeds that of Jiren.

After the transformation ends, John and his friends are still no match for Jiren. If it weren't for the three of them taking turns to fight Jiren, the Seventh Universe could not have achieved victory.

So after returning to the Seventh Universe, John began to stay on the God of Destruction's planet all day, squeezing his potential, trying to solve the difficulties caused by transformation in the shortest possible time.

As for Goku and Vegeta, although they agreed with John's view, they first wanted to break through their upper limit of strength.

Goku plans to break through Ultra Instinct Sign and step into Perfected Ultra Instinct as soon as possible.

Vegeta, on the other hand, wants to perfectly master the power of destruction and achieve the ability to wield it freely like Beerus.

So, the three people engaged in three different training plans, and even Whis and Beerus were unsure whose training direction was better.

Time passed like this, and more than a year had already gone by since the previous Tournament of Power.

On this day, John, Goku, and Vegeta did not go to the God of Destruction's planet but were resting at home. John was playing with his little daughter Lazuli.

Suddenly, Android 18 came out of the house and said, "Bulma just called. A mysterious group of space visitors has captured Buu, Goku, and Vegeta."

"What? Goku and Vegeta were captured? She must be joking!"

"Who can capture both Goku and Vegeta?" John asked skeptically.

"I don't know. Bulma sounded very tense, and it didn't seem like she was lying," Android 18 said. "Take the call; it's still connected."

John walked into the house, picked up the phone on the table, and said, "Hello, Bulma, what's the situation?"

Immediately, Bulma's anxious voice came through the receiver. She said, "John, use your Instant Transmission to help find Goku and Vegeta. They were captured by a group of mysterious space beings!"

"Bulma, speak slowly. Don't be nervous. How could both of them be captured?" John asked.

Bulma replied, "Go to Satan's house. The intruders initially wanted to capture Majin Buu. Later, Goku and Vegeta went to help and were also captured."

"I think Satan's house should have footage of the capture."

"Okay, Bulma, don't worry too much. I'll head to Satan's house now," John said and used Instant Transmission to appear at Satan's house.

At this time, Satan was dejectedly sitting on his sofa. When he saw John walk in, he immediately stood up from the sofa, rushed towards John, grabbed his hand, and said loudly, "John, you must rescue Buu, Goku, and Vegeta. I beg you."

Satan was about to kneel down to beg John.

John couldn't let Satan kneel, so he quickly lifted him up and said, "I'll check the surveillance video to see who the enemy is."

Hearing John's words, Satan immediately said, "Yes, yes, check the video. The surveillance videos are in my computer."

Satan quickly called someone to bring the laptop from his study.

Then, Satan opened the video and moved the progress bar to the scene where the space beings captured Buu and Goku.

"John, look, these are the guys," Satan said, pointing at the space beings.

John took the computer and carefully watched. Then, from the video, he saw several space beings carrying Buu to a spaceship.

Goku appeared in the courtyard using Instant Transmission and shouted to stop them.

One or two seconds after Goku appeared, Vegeta descended from the sky beside Goku.

Facing these space beings, Goku and Vegeta were naturally unafraid. With a few kicks, Goku sent the space beings carrying Buu flying.

But what happened next shocked John. One of the space beings suddenly appeared behind Goku and knocked him out with a single blow.

Then, in Vegeta's horrified gaze, the enemy appeared behind Vegeta and knocked him out as well.

Just like that, the enemy carried Goku, Vegeta, and Buu into the spaceship and left Earth.

John rewound the video and slowed down the playback speed, but he still couldn't see how the space being appeared behind Goku and Vegeta.

The enemy was very strong, extremely strong. John wasn't confident he could avoid such a mysterious attack.

"Mr. John, can you rescue Buu and Goku?" Satan asked from the side.

John replied, "The enemy is very strong, but they didn't kill Goku. So don't worry, I will definitely rescue them."

After speaking, John rewound the video and continued to watch, having only seen the fight between the space beings and Goku.

Now John wanted to see if he could identify the enemy.

This time, after watching, John immediately noticed a logo on the enemy's clothes. "Isn't this the Galactic Patrol's logo?"

John had seen this logo on Jaco during the Sixth and Seventh Universe Martial Arts Exchange Conference.

Since Bulma was connected with Jaco, John quickly called Bulma and said, "Bulma, contact Jaco. The ones who captured Buu, Goku, and Vegeta are the Galactic Patrol."

"What, it's the Galactic Patrol? That annoying Jaco, wait for me, I'm going to give him a good scolding." Bulma, filled with anger, hung up the phone when she heard that it was the Galactic Patrol who captured her husband and friends.

A moment later, Bulma called John again and said, "It's confirmed. The ones who captured Goku, Vegeta, and Majin Buu were indeed Jaco's colleagues, named Merus."

"A powerful enemy escaped from prison, and they need Goku's help to capture him."
