Chapter 230: First Clash, Both Suffer Setbacks!
A flash of white light lit up the sky.
The towering figure of the Ultimate Warrior Aniraza from Universe 3 appeared in the stands of Universe 3.
Boom!
It was as if he had fallen from the heavens, and everyone was sent scattering, trying to avoid the massive form of Aniraza.
“Idiot, hurry up and cancel the fusion!”
The Destroyer of Universe 3 anxiously slapped at Aniraza’s body.
With another flash of white light, Aniraza successfully separated.
It turned out that the robot they had seen earlier was actually a fusion of three contestants.
With this, all ten fighters from Universe 3 were now assembled in the stands.
The Grand Priest glanced at the stands of Universe 3 and nodded in acknowledgment.
“Mm-hmm. All fighters from Universe 3 have lost their qualification to compete. Proceed with the erasure ceremony.”
“Mm-hmm!”
The two Zeno children jumped with glee, eagerly waiting for the moment when the faces of Universe 3 would turn gray.
Now, with the Grand Priest’s declaration, both Zenos raised their little hands.
Their tiny fists clenched in the air, and a radiant white light descended, striking the members of Universe 3.
The figures of Universe 3’s participants began to glow with a white aura.
The next moment, with a soft pop, the entire Universe 3 team disappeared before everyone’s eyes.
Along with the vast expanse of Universe 3 itself, they vanished without a trace.
“Well, at least we still have… our Universe 7…”
Beerus muttered, glancing over at Universe 11, which was far in the distance.
At that moment, the Destroyer of Universe 11, the clownish being, was also eyeing Beerus.
His wide, red mouth spread into a malicious grin.
“Hah.”
Beerus turned away, no words needed between them. They were long-time rivals, after all.
“Nine minutes remaining until the match ends.”
The Grand Priest’s voice echoed from above the arena, speaking not only to the spectators but also to the remaining fighters still on the stage.
At this point, the remaining fighters from Universe 7 and Universe 11 stood facing each other.
It wasn’t like everyone had imagined, where they would immediately charge into battle, fighting to the death.
Nor were they hiding, waiting to survive until the very end.
Instead, they simply stood there, facing each other, the winds blowing around them. There was no immediate, explosive clash—just a calm before the storm.
But the final battle had clearly begun!
Even without moving, the sheer presence of both fighters was enough to stir the hearts of everyone watching!
Suspended in midair, the Grand Priest surveyed the now-empty stands, sensing something was off.
“Alright, let’s go!”
With a motion of his hands, the fighters on the stage suddenly moved at incredible speed!
Simultaneously, the enormous circular arena began to shrink!
It contracted rapidly, becoming just one-eighth of its original size, now barely large enough to fit the remaining fighters!
Beerus glanced at the clownish Destroyer of Universe 11, who had somehow appeared beside him. His eyes narrowed in distaste.
The Destroyer of Universe 11 gave him the same look in return.
“How do you feel, your Majesties?”
The Grand Priest asked, looking up at the two Zenos on the throne.
The two Zenos clapped excitedly, their childlike voices ringing out.
“Wow, this is great! So lively!”
“Everyone’s sitting together, how wonderful!”
On the arena stage, Goku and Jiren, the strongest fighter of Universe 11, slowly stepped forward.
In no time, the two stood face to face.
“Ha!!!”
Goku roared, unleashing his energy!
Boom!!!
In an act of display, Goku began to transform, step by step, from his normal state.
First, Super Saiyan!
Then, his body was surrounded by arcs of blue electricity, as he ascended to Super Saiyan 2!
His hair grew longer, his eyebrows vanished, and the blue arcs multiplied—Super Saiyan 3!
Next, Goku’s aura suddenly vanished, his hair and eyes turning red, with a molten lava-like energy flowing around him.
Super Saiyan God!
Following that, Goku’s state evolved once again!
The peaceful divine energy suddenly surged with explosive power!
Super Saiyan Blue!
With all of his power unleashed, Goku’s blue aura soared into the sky!
Now, he glared fiercely at his opponent.
Boom!
Suddenly, the ground beneath them exploded!
Everyone leaped back, looking toward the sky.
In that moment, it was like the starting gun of a race—both fighters had already launched into a fierce, chaotic battle!
“Why? Why do you keep getting up, even when you know your opponent can’t be defeated? Why, even though you’re exhausted, do you keep fighting?” Jiren continued his onslaught, watching the man before him—who had fallen countless times, only to stand up again, each time with a smile.
He couldn’t understand it.
It seemed so pointless. Why, then, did Goku continue to fight with such enthusiasm?
“Maybe it’s just the Saiyan gene,” Goku said with a grin, quickly blocking Jiren’s attacks with his hands.
But Jiren was Jiren. In the brief moment they spoke, he found an opening in Goku’s defense!
With a single, powerful punch, he slammed into Goku’s abdomen, sending him flying!
Bang!!!
As Goku crashed heavily to the ground, Jiren crossed his arms, standing tall and looking down at him.
“Let’s see if you can get up again.”
Suddenly, from the direction of Universe 7, a figure shot out, delivering a flying kick toward Jiren!
Jiren swiftly dodged and jumped back, frowning as he saw who had appeared.
“It’s you?”
Jiren looked at Fang Ye.
“I thought you were smarter than Goku, but… seems I was wrong.”
Jiren shook his head, disappointment clear as he looked at Fang Ye.
“Is this how everyone from Universe 7 is?”
Fang Ye stared at Jiren, speechless.
Isn’t he supposed to be a master? Why does he talk so much?
He thought to himself, clearly annoyed.
Without hesitation, Fang Ye rushed in!
For the first time, he was going to challenge Universe 11’s strongest warrior—Jiren!
Fang Ye moved with blinding speed, leaving a blur behind as he charged toward Jiren!
“Let me show you the difference between us.”
Jiren shook his head, planting his feet firmly on the ground in a stable stance.
Slowly, he raised his fists, preparing to meet Fang Ye’s attack head-on with a rain of blows.
Boom, boom, boom!!!
In an instant, a barrage of punches formed a wall of fists around Fang Ye!
“Not good!”
Fang Ye muttered, quickly crossing his arms in defense!
Bang!
Fang Ye was struck head-on, but he managed to protect himself with his Armament Haki.
Though he was sent flying back, he suffered no serious injuries.
Looking at Goku flying out of the ring, Jiren clenched his fists.
He was beginning to feel uncertain.
Though he had indeed landed a solid punch on Fang Ye, something felt off.
It was like hitting a steel plate—not that the plate was harder, but that it absorbed the attack’s force, as though it had some kind of resilience.
Jiren stood tall, his expression serious as he surveyed the smoke-filled arena.
Slowly, he raised his left hand, forming a red energy ball.
“Goodbye, Universe 7’s two monsters.”
