Whis kept a warm smile.
"Ziost was not my doing. I was merely explaining what really happened there."
The Dread Saiyan kept his arms crossed behind his back, speaking next.
"The original Emperor undertook the first ritual centuries ago; Ziost was merely the birth of a new power."
Vegetto's eyes widened a bit.
"Vitiate...he was the one who wiped out Ziost. Becoming even stronger than both you and Whis..."
He glanced back to the Dread Saiyan.
"So that's what this is all about? You're afraid of what Vitiate can do?"
The Dread Saiyan chuckled lightly.
"Not afraid. And while he may be a possible threat...his influence will have to be looked at another time. There is a more immediate threat looming, one that even you won't be able to see."
Whis bowed his head slightly, before his eyes turned towards Kira.
"Your anger is noted, Kira Carsen. Yet your eyes are still blind to the bigger picture."
The staff slowly disappeared in his grip, Whis' arm falling down to his side.
"Life and death are merely stages of the grand play we call 'existence'. There are no limitations, there is no weight to death and murder other than the morality many beings bind to it."
He kept a smile, nodding towards Brachi and the fusions.
"While you may not understand it, your comrades certainly do. They can deny their lineage as their own entity, but the truth is that they would not even exist today if it wasn't for the billions of lives Vegeta slaughtered in his wake."
His eyebrow raised.
"Is it fair to hate and despise those who kill millions in the sake of power and enlightenment when you yourself have taken hundreds to become the woman you are today? Regardless of your justification?"
The being did not wait for a response, bowing towards the group while Beerus peered in confusion.
"Whis...what are you doing?"
Whis let out a small content chuckle.
"As much as I have enjoyed these last centuries with you, Lord Beerus, I'm afraid our time together must come to an end. The cycle is now complete, and it is as the Masters have foretold..."
Whis' attention fell back to the group of warriors, glowing in a near blinding white light.
"This existence is now yours to govern. Do try to keep an open mind."
Vegetto tensed, squinting as the light slowly forced the others to stare away and erupted outward in a harmless explosion. It began to fade slowly, dimming across the Dread Saiyan's body to indicate the completion of the absorption.
"As my predecessor explained, this situation is far more complex than you can possibly imagine. This Empire...Zakuul...is your final chance. To save the multiverse, and bring about the peace some of you have sought since the beginning."
Vegetto glanced down, watching the Dread Saiyan extend out his right arm, gesturing towards their feet.
"I will share all of this with you...if you will only kneel."
