Beerus was worried about Lin Chen's actions causing trouble.
While Lin Chen was also caught in a dilemma.
Zeno's bodyguard, one could say, truly lived up to being Zeno's bodyguard. Without any divine position, he had a Power Level seemingly more formidable than even a God of Destruction. Moreover, he has reached Divine Realm Second Level, nearly on par with an Angel.
In Lin Chen's perception, there was even a fluctuation similar to Ultra Instinct emanating from the opponent, as if they had mastered the power of Ultra Instinct!
However, perhaps due to underestimating Lin Chen, the opponent did not use their full strength immediately, creating a situation where the battle seemed to be at a standstill.
Yet, Lin Chen could sense that as time passed, the opponent seemed to be growing impatient.
The esteemed bodyguard of Zeno was unable to defeat a mere mortal?
As a result, the opponent's strength rapidly rose, gradually revealing his full strength.
Slowly but surely, Lin Chen, relying only on the power of Super Saiyan Silver-Grey, was struggling to hold on!
"Kaio-ken!"
After a flash of red light, Lin Chen's power increased even more, as he mobilized all his strength and launched a fiercer counterattack.
In an instant, the already intense battle escalated once again. Amidst the overwhelming aftermath of power, the scene became chaotic.
The arena, now devoid of anyone, began to crumble under the shockwaves of power.
The stands of the two universes were also impacted. Fortunately, Whis and Vados promptly erected a barrier, protecting the stands.
On the other side, the shockwaves also affected the space that had been distorted by external force.
Crackling sounds, like the shattering of glass, echoed as the disguise applied to the space finally could not hold up and disintegrated, revealing two figures hidden within the space.
These two figures—one short and the other tall and thin—bore an uncanny resemblance to Zeno's bodyguard currently battling Lin Chen.
The first to notice these two individuals was East Supreme Kai Shin of Universe 7.
Upon seeing them, East Supreme Kai immediately asked, "Ancestor, look over there, two people just emerged! Are they with that person?"
Old Kai turned his head to take a look, and immediately stumbled, his expression changing dramatically.
At that moment, East Supreme Kai said again, "Why is there a child too? He seems to be feeling somewhat uncomfortable."
"You idiot! How dare you speak like that about Zeno-sama? Are you looking to die?" Old Kai roared loudly, smacking Shin's forehead.
Zeno?
Upon hearing Old Kai's words, Beerus and the others also turned their heads.
Immediately, the two God of Destruction's eyes nearly popped out, and their jaws almost hit the ground.
"Ze... Zeno-sama!!"
Beerus swiftly moved and appeared before Zeno like the wind, bowing before him.
"Welcome, Zeno-sama!"
Meanwhile, Champa stood there with his mouth wide open, looking completely bewildered.
"Champa-sama? Champa-sama?" Vados shouted from the side, "Champa-sama, are you just going to stand there?"
Cold sweat dripped down Champa's forehead. He instantly disappeared from his spot, appearing next to Beerus like lightning, and then bowed in the same manner.
"Welcome, Zeno-sama!"
"Huh? What are they doing?"
It wasn't until this moment that the others noticed the unusual behavior of the two God of Destruction and the appearance of two strangers who had appeared out of nowhere.
Seeing that Beerus and Champa looked as if facing a strong enemy, Goku couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Whis, who are the people over there?"
"That's Zeno-sama. He's a big shot standing at the peak of all 12 universes."
"All the universes?!"
"Peak?"
Goku and Vegeta were both astonished.
Before they could inquire further, Whis, Vados, along with the Supreme Kai and attendants of two universes, had already rushed to Zeno's side, bowing respectfully to him.
Seeing the big shots of two universes acting this way, the others became flustered and quickly followed suit, bowing.
While everyone paid their respects, Zeno's gaze remained fixed on Lin Chen.
His battle with Zeno's bodyguard was still going on.
Noticing Zeno's attention, Beerus immediately turned around and said, "Lin Chen! Come over here! Stop fighting! That's Zeno-sama's bodyguard!"
"No."
Suddenly, a voice resembling that of an innocent child sounded, "Don't stop fighting! And you, how dare you interrupt their battle, do you want me to erase you?"
"I-I'm truly sorry!"
Zeno's words frightened Beerus; cold sweat breaking out on his forehead as he knelt in mid-air before Zeno.
"Don't disturb them. If you have something to say, wait until they finish their fight," Zeno declared.
"Yes!"
Thus, a bizarre scene appeared. All the gods of Universe 6 and 7 waited by Zeno's side, while Zeno seriously watched the battle between Lin Chen and his bodyguard.
On the side, Goku and the others were still unsure of what was happening, eventually redirecting their attention back to Lin Chen.
By this time, the battle had already reached the climax.
A white light that many were somewhat familiar with appeared around Zeno's bodyguard.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Facing Lin Chen's fierce attacks, Zeno's bodyguard, whose appearance had undergone some changes, easily dodged them all.
"Ultra Instinct? It's really Ultra Instinct!"
Seeing the changes in the opponent, Lin Chen's eyes widened.
Zeno's bodyguard had also mastered Ultra Instinct!
Although not in its perfect form, it had already reached the level of Ultra Instinct Sign.
But Ultra Instinct was Ultra Instinct. In an instant, all of Lin Chen's attacks missed, and instead Zeno's bodyguard continuously landed hits on him.
Deadly punches exploded on him continuously, and blood gushed out of Lin Chen's mouth uncontrollably.
What was initially an evenly matched battle had suddenly turned into Lin Chen falling into a disadvantage.
"Oh no! Lin Chen seems to be in trouble!"
"Dad! Brother, let's go help!"
Lin Luo and Taro were about to go and support the struggling Lin Chen, but suddenly, they heard Lin Chen's voice in their minds.
"Don't come over!"
"Dad?"
From afar, while engaged in a fierce battle, Lin Chen continued to communicate through telepathy, "Just watch from the sidelines and don't act rashly!"
The current battle was being watched by Zeno. If Lin Luo and Taro interfered, it could potentially anger Zeno.
Lin Chen couldn't afford to take that risk.
"But Dad, can you win?" Lin Luo expressed concern.
"Don't worry!"
Although Lin Chen responded confidently, as time rapidly passed, his situation became increasingly precarious.
After a few strikes from Zeno's bodyguard who was using Ultra Instinct, Lin Chen's body was covered in wounds and seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Even Zeno couldn't help but remark, "Huh? Is it over just like this? Boring..."
