"It is undeniable that you are stronger than I imagined. It's even more exaggerated than in Belmod-sama's description. If there was no fusion, I know that I am not your opponent. But now you want to beat me? Don't be hopeful, that's something you can't do," Jiren's tone was still extremely flat.
If he hadn't done the fusion, he knew that he would never be the opponent of Goten in front of him. This was enough to surprise him. In this world, there were still such powerful mortals. But today, he must win this tournament no matter what. He must get the Super Dragon Balls; no one could stop him from winning this tournament.
"Yeah? Then try it!" At the same time Goten's voice fell, his body disappeared in a flash, and he punched Jiren hard.
Seeing Goten's attack, Jiren didn't choose to dodge at all.
Boom!
In the next second, Goten's fist landed heavily on Jiren's face, and the terrifying force also distorted half of Jiren's face. His body leaned back slightly, but his feet didn't move. In other words, he suffered a heavy blow from Goten without even moving his body.
"Wha... What?? Is that guy kidding me? Goten hit him with a heavy blow and he didn't even move his feet!" Beerus' face changed instantly. "Even a Hakaishin would be seriously injured with this punch."
His expression became more solemn. Although he could feel that Jiren from the Eleventh Universe was really too strong, he didn't expect that with the strength of his body, he could forcibly hold Goten's punch and not even back down. If he were replaced by a Hakaishin, this punch would be enough to cause serious injuries. Was this guy so scary?
"Hey! It is indeed a bit very powerful! It seems that the combined Jiren from the Eleventh Universe already has strength comparable to an Angel. If Goten wants to win this battle, he must break through his own limit and have stronger power than he has now," Whis said in surprise.
Although Goten's potential was indeed very strong, breaking through in this situation was improbable. Jiren from the Eleventh Universe was much stronger than Goten, making it difficult for Goten to defeat him.
"Goten, please do your best!" Shin and Kibito clenched their fists tightly, cheering Goten in their hearts. Since Goten defeated Janemba and Majin Buu last time, in their minds, he was already invincible. Today, they felt that Goten would definitely be able to defeat the warrior from the Eleventh Universe!
"Hehehe... Stupid Beerus, see the difference between our two universes? No matter how powerful Goten of your universe is, he can never be a match for Jiren! The final winner of this game is our Eleventh Universe. Your Seventh Universe will be the first to be eliminated," Belmod mocked triumphantly, his face filled with anticipation.
"Hmph! Stop farting, Belmod. Do you think Goten from our universe will lose to that big-eyed monster from your universe? Your jokes are more commendable than your fighting skills," Beerus snorted coldly, responding angrily.
Even though Whis had expressed doubts, Beerus believed Goten would never lose so easily. This was his intuition as Hakaishin and his confidence in Goten.
After seeing the fused warrior from the Eleventh Universe, Goten didn't show any panic. In other words, he would definitely be able to defeat the combined warrior of the Eleventh Universe!
"Oh! Looks like you have run out of things to say. Whatever you say," Belmod responded with a relaxed expression, turning away from Beerus. He could imagine Beerus gnashing his teeth.
Jiren, after taking a punch from Goten, apparently suffered no harm. After gently wiping his cheek, the bruise on his face disappeared instantly. He looked at Goten indifferently and said, "Is your strength only at this level?"
The moment the voice fell, he punched Goten directly in the stomach. Reciprocity must be shown. He knew such an attack would be easy for Goten to dodge, but he didn't want to solve the battle instantly. Goten was a rare good opponent.
"Heh!" Goten curled his lips and didn't dodge. He could sense that Jiren wasn't attacking with all his might. It seemed Jiren still looked down on him too much.
Boom!!!
In the next second, Jiren's fist hit Goten's stomach heavily. A powerful wave of air swept across the audience, directly eliminating some weak participants under this powerful shock wave.
"Hoo! The attacks of these two are too heavy! It's surprising that just relying on the shock wave generated by one punch directly eliminated so many participants," the Grand Priest said, quite surprised.
It was hard for those other universe participants! With just one blow, just the shock wave, dozens of participants were directly eliminated. The faces of the other Universe Gods darkened instantly. This shock wave alone eliminated four or five participants from each of their universes!
If these two guys fought seriously, a random shock wave could eliminate their entire universe. Even the entire arena could be destroyed!
The Grand Priest started announcing the eliminated participants one by one. At this time, the contestants who eliminated the most universes were from the Ninth Universe and the Tenth Universe.
At this moment in the ring, there were only two participants left from each of their universes! If another accident happened, the two universes would be completely wiped out by Zeno!
Although their hearts were in their throats at this time, they couldn't do anything. Even if they were allowed to destroy the metaphysical field, the final result would not change.
The fight was still going on. Most of the contestants in the arena had already started to tremble, because they couldn't guarantee when they would be pushed out by a powerful force.
On the other side, Jiren's fist also hit Goten's lower abdomen heavily. However, it also did not have much of an effect; Goten's body didn't take a step back either.
"Hmph! It looks like your strength is nothing more than that, and your attack is so weak!" Goten sneered, a confident smile on the corner of his mouth.
'Jiren, that Goten guy is definitely not easy to deal with. Don't give him too much time to grow. Get rid of him as quickly as possible, otherwise, there may be another accident,' Belmod communicated with Jiren using the sound transmission technique.
A mortal who had lived for less than 50 years could possess such powerful power; maybe this guy had the potential to break through at any moment. If the fight continued like this, Jiren was likely to capsize in the gutter. This was something their entire Eleventh Universe was unwilling to see!
'Understood, Belmod-sama...' Jiren responded silently. He had already felt it! Next, it was really necessary to fight hard. If this were just an ordinary match, he would have had a fair and just fight with Goten! But it was a pity; he must win the final victory in this match.
Jiren then said to Goten, "Don't think I didn't see it. You just increased the strength of your body at the moment you were attacked. But even so, it's enough to surprise me that you were able to receive my punch just now! Next, I won't show mercy..."
Jiren's face remained calm, without any waves. This Goten was indeed very strong. It seemed that the battle must be resolved as soon as possible! Otherwise, accidents might happen at any time. As for accidents, this was something he would never allow and cannot tolerate.
"Ah! Then come! I will also use all my strength to fight," Goten said with a very serious face. Next was the real battle!
After the voice fell, Goten exited Ultra Instinct mode. He knew that with Ultra Instinct, there was no way he could defeat Jiren. Afterwards, the aura around Goten's body began to dissipate little by little.
At this time, everyone saw that Goten had withdrawn from Ultra Instinct State. They guessed that he was going to undergo the previous transformation! Although Ultra Instinct was enough to shock them, in terms of strength, it seemed that it was indeed not as good as the previous transformation.
Fighting such a powerful Jiren in front of him, it was obvious that only by transforming could he exert the most powerful force.
[T/N: I don't know why his LSSj2 form is stronger than his PUI form. Let's see what he cooks.]
"Yah!!! Goten seems to be transforming again? I'm really looking forward to it! My favorite thing is to see Goten transform..." Zeno exclaimed excitedly after seeing Goten quit the Ultra Instinct mode.
"It looks like he is," the Grand Priest nodded. But he didn't hold out much hope for Goten. Although Goten's strength was very strong, even if he completed the strongest transformation, it was impossible to beat Jiren from the Eleventh Universe!
Under everyone's attention, Goten clenched his fists.
"Haaaaaah!!" The deep roar was released from his throat instantly. Accompanied by terrifying roars and powerful airwaves, the entire Null Realm began to tremble crazily again.
A wave of air continued to spread in all directions. Those other Universe participants who were relatively close were directly blown away by this powerful airwave.
"What?? Are you kidding me? This brat seems to be much stronger than last time. How is this possible? It's just short time that has passed and there was not enough time, why has his strength become so powerful again?! Could it be that the bastard held back his strength in the previous battle with all Hakaishin?" The faces of all Gods changed instantly after feeling the power emanating from Goten.
Just a day ago, this guy's strength was definitely not this strong! But just over a day later, his strength had undergone earth-shaking changes.
A mortal!! This speed of ascension was simply rubbing all their Hakaishin on the ground. Especially Belmod from the Eleventh Universe; the clown's face became even uglier.
'Jiren, get rid of Goten as fast as you can! That guy's strength is much stronger than when we fought before,' Belmod immediately commanded Jiren using the voice transmission technique.
"Whoa!!! That's unexpected, Beerus-sama. When he fought the Gods before, I clearly felt that Goten had already exerted all his strength. But in just over a day, his strength has improved so much! What the hell is going on here?" Whis also looked dazed and shocked. Why did Goten change so much in just one day?
"Never mind him! Anyway, Goten's improvement in strength is a good thing. I don't want to care about how he improved his strength. Now, as long as he can defeat the fused Jiren from the Eleventh Universe, that's fine!" Beerus said excitedly.
"Yes yes yes, Beerus-sama is right," Shin quickly echoed.
Swish!!
And just when everyone was shocked and dazed, Goten's hair instantly turned vibrant green. Golden lightning flashed around his body. At this time, he once again transformed into the form of the Legendary Super Saiyan II. But this time, his strength was obviously much stronger than before.
La la!
Golden lightning flashed constantly around his body. The feeling of that powerful force constantly wandering in the body was really very comfortable.
'Is this the strength after being boosted by the Super Shenron?' Gently clenching his fist, explosive power erupted from his body. 'It seems that I am indeed much stronger than before, and my strength is increasing every day, much faster than before.'
Obviously, the reason why his strength could be raised to such a level in such a short period of time was mainly because Super Shenron developed his potential to the extreme, and the bloodline had also been improved to the limit...
"What a strong force. Is this the real power of this guy? It looks like I have to get rid of him quickly..." After feeling the power of Goten, Jiren also narrowed his eyes slightly.
Whizzing!
The next moment, the two rushed towards each other in an extremely tacit understanding. Then they blasted out with a punch!
Rumble!
The moment the fists collided, a terrifying shock wave spread instantly. The solid surface of the arena was constantly being destroyed, layer by layer swept up.
Those participants with mid and low strength had already been eliminated by the powerful shock wave at this time. They no longer had a sense of participation in this battle that even the Gods had to look up to. They didn't even have the qualifications to participate with them...
"Hoo~ Zeno-sama, all the members of a few Universes have already been eliminated!" the Grand Priest looked at the situation in front of him and then said to Zeno. This ending was also expected. After all, the gap between the other universes and the Seventh Universe and the Eleventh Universe was really too big.
"Yeah! Has a universe been eliminated so soon? If this is the case, then we can only follow the rules we set before, and they will be erased!" Zeno said in a childish tone.
"Yes!" the Grand Priest nodded. Then he opened his mouth and announced: "Ninth Universe, Tenth Universe, all ten contestants have been eliminated. Therefore, the Ninth Universe and Tenth Universe will be completely erased!"
