Chapter 53 The Dragon Balls Exposed, Coveted by The Entire Universe
🕑 Added 2025-11-10 23:38:07 +0000 UTCThe effects of the moon's disappearance weren't limited to just Planet Terra.
It could be said the entire South Galaxy was affected to some degree.
Changes in gravity, shifts in climate, impacts on the ecological environment.
"From night to day and back to night, the total time is only about six or seven hours."
On the Planet Demon, Kanroji Mitsuri calculated the length of a full day after the moon vanished.
It had shrunk from 24 hours to a mere 7 or 8 hours!
This wasn't just about people being forced to change their living habits.
It must be remembered, their planet had monsters known as [Demons].
These demons, fearing the sun and sunlight, only emerged at night.
And the Demon Slayer Corps was forced to hunt these monsters at night.
In such a combat environment, the moon's importance was self-evident.
Did you think everyone was like Himejima Gyomei, that blind guy?
Could they just fight without being able to see?
Mitsuri glanced at Kanae, who was on good terms with her.
The other was frantically sending messages to Tatsumaki:
[Tatsumaki-san, please, you have to think of something!]
The Demon Slayer Corps already had little advantage over Muzan’s Twelve Kizuki.
If they lost the moon and had to fight in pitch darkness, the consequences were too terrible to contemplate.
Group members from other South Galaxy’s planets were also spamming the chat.
They resembled internet-addicted teenagers whose power was cut during a ranked game.
Everyone was asking if anyone had a solution.
After all, everyone knew the group members were all talented individuals in their own right.
Maybe there was someone who could reverse time or restore the moon?
Well, but surprisingly, few people directly blamed Lott.
Of course, it wasn't because the members were magnanimous, but purely out of fear of retaliation...
[Tatsumaki: @Kanae, Stop @-ing me! What can I do? That guy Lott is at the headquarters now. Let's see what trick he has up his sleeve!]
The heated group chat fell silent upon seeing Tatsumaki's message.
‘Him?’
‘That guy seemed like an absolute expert at destruction, but construction... forget it.’
…
Hero Association’s Headquarters.
After entering the conference room with Genos and taking a seat, Lott glanced at the faces of the numerous council members around the table, blinked, and chuckled lightly:
"Seeing quite a few unexpected faces."
The council members Lott's gaze swept over, Yuuki Shouzou, Kashiwazaki Tenma, Shinomiya Un’yo, and others… more or less showed fear, turning their faces away.
Only Mrs. Yukinoshita, being a woman, tightly clenched her kimono under the table.
Forcing herself to remain calm, she mechanically nodded at Lott in response.
This made Lott look at her a couple more times.
“Cough Cough~”
The Prime Minister Fujiwara cleared his throat twice, drawing everyone's attention back to himself, and said gravely:
"Due to a minor incident yesterday, Planet Terra's current situation is quite dire..."
Child Emperor secretly rolled his eyes, thinking to himself:
‘Losing more than half the S-Class and A-Class heroes is a 'minor incident'...’
The Prime Minister Fujiwara glanced sideways at Lott. "Lott-kun, do you have a solution?"
The Prime Minister thought about it and decided not to use an overly humble form of address.
No matter what, the other was practically his half-grandson-in-law, so he should give him that much respect, right?
Fortunately, Lott didn't care about such minor details.
"Me? I don't have a solution. I'm better at destruction than creation."
An expected yet disappointing answer.
"This is bad."
Child Emperor bit his lower lip tightly, his face bitter.
"Terrans' living habits will be completely disrupted. The direction the ecosystem will take is unpredictable. And will people riot because of this?"
"Whether ordinary people riot doesn't matter at all. But I'm also used to the 24-hour day. Suddenly changing to seven or eight hours is quite annoying."
Lott suddenly spoke again.
"Huh? Didn't you just say you have no solution?"
Tatsumaki raised an eyebrow.
"Shorty, have you forgotten the people in the group chat?"
Lott retorted.
"Shor-"
Tatsumaki nearly choked on her breath.
She hated being called ‘short’ the most!
Luckily, Child Emperor and Bang sitting on either side quickly tried to calm her.
"Calm down, calm down, Tatsumaki-san!"
"Things have just settled down. Don't start another conflict."
…
[Lott: @Goku, Hey, roommate, you haven't used this year's Dragon Balls yet, right?]
In the Universe Chat Room, the moment Lott spoke, he became the star of the show.
No one dared interrupt casually, just secretly lurking behind their screens.
If you didn't know better, you'd think this wasn't a group chat but a private conversation between Lott and Goku.
Goku, who had just finished his 'marital duties' last night and was hunting in Mt. Paozu for food, was stunned for a good while upon seeing this message before replying:
[Ro-Roommate? Are you calling me?]
Krillin and Master Roshi at Kame House looked at each other.
Bulma at Capsule Corporation in West City was also covered in question marks.
‘What kind of strange form of address was this?’
[Lott: Obviously. Didn't you see me @-ing you?]
[Lott: Back to the topic. You haven't used Earth's Dragon Balls this year, right?]
[Goku: Uh-huh, haven't used them. Why? Do you want to use them?]
Seeing Son Goku's response, countless people across the universe felt their hearts tighten.
Wh-What did this mean?
Could it be that this thing called [Dragon Balls] could restore the moon?
Meanwhile, on Frieza Planet 44 in the West Galaxy, Frieza's hands gripped the armrests of his throne so hard they cracked.
His breathing grew unusually rapid.
