Chapter 38: Clash of the Titans – The Unstoppable Power of Beerus and Rack
The Void Arena crackled with energy as Beerus and Rack clashed, sending rippling waves of energy in all directions. Each strike grew heavier, each ki blast more intense, as the two destroyers unleashed the true depths of their power. Every god and angel in the stands could only stare, sensing the sheer rawness of this battle. The multiverse itself seemed to hold its breath as the Void Arena trembled under the relentless barrage of attacks.
Beerus's violet aura flared around him, his Final God of Destruction Body now humming with a destructive power so intense it almost radiated heat. He was ready to finish this—and it seemed Rack knew it, his eyes narrowing as his aura grew even darker, swirling with deep red and purple as he maintained his G.O.D Plate form.
The Grand Priest watched with silent interest, arms folded, as his keen eyes tracked every exchange. "Incredible", he mused. "Even with their respective forms, neither is relenting. The scale of this power… if they were to fight together against me"… He paused, his gaze sharpening. "They might not just pose a threat—they'd actually stand a chance".
The thought left the Grand Priest with a mix of admiration and a hint of wariness. There were only a few beings he considered capable of challenging him, but here, these two might just be able to overcome him in unison. Two destroyers this powerful… they are truly the best of their kind.
Just then, Rack launched a fierce barrage of ki blasts, his red and purple energy exploding across the arena in blinding streaks. Beerus dodged with incredible speed, weaving through the onslaught before countering with a series of precision punches and kicks, each strike like a thunderbolt as he closed in on Rack.
Rack retaliated by raising his hands, unleashing a colossal energy wave that roared as it barreled towards Beerus. The God of Destruction planted his feet firmly and braced against it, gritting his teeth as he raised his own hands, catching the blast with sheer force. With a mighty roar, Beerus pushed the energy back, redirecting it toward Rack.
Rack smirked, disappearing in an instant before reappearing behind Beerus, attempting a sneak attack. But Beerus had anticipated it, spinning around with a vicious elbow that connected with Rack's jaw, sending him crashing into the ground with earth-shattering force.
Rack pushed himself up, wiping a trickle of blood from his mouth. "Not bad, Beerus. But don't think that'll be enough to end me."
Beerus raised an eyebrow, his expression unreadable. "If that's the best you've got, Rack, I suggest you surrender. I'm just getting warmed up."
Rack laughed, the sound dark and menacing. "You think you're the only one holding back?"
In response, Rack's aura flared once more, reaching an even higher intensity as his power surged again. His G.O.D Plate gleamed, pulsating with energy as his eyes glowed with a ferocious light. With a guttural roar, he charged Beerus, his speed now nearly impossible to track as he struck with devastating force.
Beerus met him head-on, the two of them trading blows so fast that only the gods could perceive the sheer speed of their movements. Fist met fist, kick met kick, and each clash sent resounding echoes across the Void Arena. Shockwaves rippled outward, causing some of the gods in the stands to shift uncomfortably, as even they felt the sheer power radiating from the combatants.
As the battle raged on, Zeno watched with rapt attention, his small hands clenched in excitement. The sheer power on display fascinated him. "They're both so strong!" he whispered, his eyes wide. "This is even better than the Tournament of Power!"
The Grand Priest nodded, his gaze still fixed on the two destroyers. Indeed, my lord, he thought to himself. This is perhaps the pinnacle of destructive power in the multiverse. But if this keeps up…
Down in the arena, Beerus finally broke the deadlock, slamming Rack with a powerful uppercut that sent him flying back. Before Rack could recover, Beerus extended his hands, summoning a massive sphere of violet destruction energy that crackled and hissed, overflowing with annihilative force.
"End of the line, Rack!" Beerus declared, launching the sphere with a force that caused the arena to shudder.
Rack saw it coming and responded with a fierce roar, summoning a massive energy wave of his own, tinged in red and purple. The two attacks collided in mid-air, creating a blinding explosion that forced everyone, even the gods, to shield their eyes from the sheer brilliance of the blast.
When the light faded, Rack and Beerus stood panting, each bearing the toll of the clash. Bruises, scrapes, and cuts marred their forms, but their determination remained unbroken.
Beerus clenched his fists, his aura surging once more. "You're persistent, Rack. But I'll end this here and now if I have to."
Rack simply grinned, his expression fierce and unyielding. "Good. Because I'm not done yet either."
The Grand Priest observed in silence, his admiration tempered by the lingering thought that if these two joined forces, even he would find himself tested. He would never admit it, but as he watched their unrestrained fury and unbreakable resolve, he couldn't deny the immense potential they wielded.
And as the two combatants squared off once more, the gods of the multiverse held their breath, waiting to see which of these destroyers would stand victorious in this ultimate clash of power.
