"Pleasure working with you." Soya extended his hand in a friendly manner.
"Mm, you are very sensible!" Heles was still very satisfied with Soya, smiling as she said, "Luckily you told me about the side effects of the Combat God Water. Otherwise, if I had discovered it myself, I think I might have been unable to resist destroying you!"
Soya: "..."
Soya felt a slight panic in his heart.
This won't do!
I must improve my strength as quickly as possible.
Can anyone who shows up just threaten me like this?
Among all these Dragon Ball fanfictions, am I the one having the worst time?
Soya nodded, left the spectator stands of the Second Universe, and returned to Whis's side.
The battle on the planet was still ongoing.
There were not many people still active on the planet now.
Only these remained: Hulk from the First Universe, Buck from the Fourth Universe, Hit from the Sixth Universe, and Toppo from the Eleventh Universe.
Other contestants had either surrendered and been teleported away, or were lying on the ground unable to get up.
Broly was still lying on the ground, motionless.
The One Punch Man, Saitama, was also lying on the ground now, clutching his chest, finding it very difficult to stand up.
Mainly because Hit had him perfectly countered.
Although Saitama's punches were very powerful, it was useless if they didn't hit the opponent.
The Hulk immediately looked towards the other contestants on the scene, quickly locking his gaze onto the mouse, Buck.
"What? Are you the next monster?" Buck wasn't flustered at all. Instead, he even looked at the Hulk with a provocative expression.
The Hulk leaped up, flying towards Buck's location.
Buck kicked out with a flying kick, aiming at the charging Hulk.
"Bang!"
Buck's kick was quite powerful, landing heavily on the Hulk's face.
The Hulk tumbled once in the air before planting headfirst into the ground.
Buck rushed forward, sat down on the Hulk, and unleashed a fierce barrage of attacks on his face.
The Hulk howled in pain from the beating.
However, soon after, the Hulk began to fight back. With a grab of his large hand, he seized Buck's tail and yanked him to the ground.
Immediately after, the Hulk casually grabbed Buck's ankle and began slamming his body back and forth, left and right.
"That guy called Hulk, his fighting style is really similar to Broly's," Raditz remarked.
"Yeah," Bardock nodded lightly.
"Broly won't just stay down like that, unable to get up, right?" Gine looked worried.
On the other side.
Hit and Toppo finally faced each other.
Both stared at the other with intense fighting spirit, sparks flashing in their eyes.
Then, without wasting any more words, they charged at each other.
Hit immediately used his Time Skip, punching Toppo in the face.
Toppo winced in pain, hastily launching a counterattack.
The two engaged in a fierce clash on the planet, surprisingly fighting to a standstill for the moment, making it difficult to determine a winner in a short time.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The Hulk continued holding Buck's ankle, relentlessly slamming his body.
After who knows how long of slamming, the Hulk noticed that Buck had stopped moving. Only then did he pull him up by the ankle to take a look in front of his own eyes.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, Buck used his own head to deliver a heavy blow to the Hulk's face.
The Hulk let out a pained cry, staggering backward several steps.
Buck seized the opportunity to rush forward, pummeling the Hulk with a barrage of blows.
The Hulk was beaten backward, constantly retreating.
Three seconds later.
The two became entangled in a brawl.
Soya facepalmed.
Why does this feel like kids fighting...
Can't this be a proper, serious competition?
After grappling for over half an hour, the Hulk and Buck finally separated.
However, both were panting heavily, clearly having expended a great deal of stamina.
"Darn it! Buck, you fool! As the grandson of a God of Destruction, can't you even defeat a monster like that?" Quitela was furious, unable to resist cursing from the spectator stands.
The corner of Buck's mouth twitched slightly, feeling somewhat bitter inside.
It's not that I can't beat this monster.
It's that this monster is really strong.
"Bang!"
Feeling unwilling, Buck swiftly charged forward and delivered a heavy punch to the Hulk.
The Hulk was smashed heavily to the ground.
However, the moment he fell, the Hulk used the last of his strength to slap Buck, knocking him over.
Both fell to the ground simultaneously, unable to get up again.
Now, 55 minutes had passed since the start of the competition.
The only ones still fighting were Hit and Toppo.
The strength difference between Hit and Toppo wasn't significant.
Additionally, perhaps because this point in time was relatively early, Soya noticed that Toppo was not using the power of destruction, nor was he exhibiting his God of Destruction form.
It's possible that at this point in time, Toppo hasn't yet comprehended destruction?
If Toppo could reach the level of strength he had during the Tournament of Power, Soya believed he wouldn't be in such a sorry state.
"Huff... huff... huff!"
Both Hit and Toppo were panting heavily, feeling waves of exhaustion.
"The one who will become the new God of Destruction of the universe is me!" Hit declared loudly.
"Hmph, it can only be me! I will not lose to you!" Toppo snorted coldly.
The two charged at each other again, commencing a new round of battle.
After this round ended, both fell to the ground, unable to get up again.
"Only 10 seconds remain, the competition is about to end," the Grand Priest announced with a smile, hovering in the air.
Toppo, Hit, Hulk, and Buck struggled fiercely, trying to stand up from the ground.
"10! 9! …"
The Grand Priest had already begun the countdown here.
When the Grand Priest counted to "8".
"Snap!"
Broly leaped up from the ground and stood up.
Toppo, Hit, Hulk, and Buck all widened their eyes, expressions of astonishment on their faces.
Wasn't this kid knocked out earlier?
How did he suddenly stand up now?
Did you just lie flat all the way until now?
"Snap!"
At that moment, Zamasu also gritted his teeth and crawled up from the ground, though his legs trembled, nearly causing him to fall flat again.
"Broly, there's still one standing over there!" Raditz shouted at the top of his lungs to Broly, "Knock him down! Defeat him, and you'll be the new God of Destruction of the universe!"
Broly's eyes lit up, immediately turning his head to glance in Zamasu's direction.
Zamasu: "..."
Zamasu's face immediately darkened.
"Negative emotional value from Zamasu +999!"
This kid's mouth is really wretched.
Would anyone think you were mute if you didn't speak?
What broke Zamasu's heart even more was what followed.
They saw Broly rapidly charging towards Zamasu's location.
Zamasu was greatly alarmed and tried to gather a hand blade to stab at Broly.
"Snap!"
However, Zamasu now had very little energy left. The hand blade, only half-formed, directly dissipated.
"No... Not good!" Zamasu exclaimed, his face deathly pale, pupils contracting violently.
Broly made a diving charge, punching Zamasu to the ground. He then casually grabbed Zamasu's wrist, yanked his body, and began slamming it back and forth, left and right.
Zamasu let out screams of agony.
"Darn it! Seventh Universe!" Rumshii trembled with anger.
Why is this kid so detestable?
He was clearly already down, yet he stood up at the critical moment.
And this kid's energy is almost entirely undepleted.
