Chapter 93 - 93: The Gods do Battle

I found it funny that Zen-chan couldn't follow the movements of the Gods of Destruction but has the ability to eliminate anything and everything. I guess with all the security like the Grand Priest around him he doesn't have to worry about that. If the Angels are stronger than the Gods of Destruction and the Grand Priest is above the Angels, what would the King of All have to fear?

The ring, the rules and the contestants were set, now we are waiting on them to start the fighting. The Gods of the other universes were surrounding Beerus, ready to gang up on him. I've heard from Whis that the other Gods already had grudges against Beerus because of a previous event the King of All brought up, a multi-universe hide and seek game. Apparently Beerus went to sleep and the game was halted while the other Gods tried to calm the King of All. Now that they know that this whole incident had something to do with Beerus they were going to get revenge. Not to mention Beerus gave each of the Gods a reason to bear a grudge against him.

Grand Priest: Well then, there is no time limit, so we will be starting. Let the exhibition match…BEGIN!!!

From the first attacks Beerus was showing Migatte no Gokui (Autonomous Ultra Instinct) movements, but Whis said before that even Beerus hasn't mastered it. Although it was imperfect he used it well as he dogded many attacks but was caught by Moscow, the robot suit God of Destruction from universe 3. Beerus broke free and while the others were charging at him while being caught they attacked Moscow instead. Very quickly Beerus threw Champa into the air, believing that Beerus went into the air they all followed the decoy only to be trapped and become targets for Beerus who threw an energy ball at the grouped up Gods. One of the Gods used a barrier but was attacked by Belmod, the clown looking God from the 11th universe.

Belmod: Sorry but you were totally open. It's not like Beerus is our only opponent here…only one of us can be the strongest. This is no time to be helping each other.

With all their different powers on the rise and being told to attack each other as if they are going for the kill, they won't be able to notice me using my Ginga Rinne Sharingan (Galaxy Samsara copy wheel eyes). I was able to follow all of their moves, read and copy all their techniques. I saw how Beerus was able to utilize the movements but I have yet to see the power of the Migatte no Gokui on him, still it is a good reference. Belmod used a bubble or barrier technique that traps those inside but lets attacks pass through on all the other Gods. Belmod then used a card like energy attack on the other Gods. They broke free and continued to assault each other. Ramon, the elephant looking God from universe 10, used a loud intimidating roar. I was expecting it and felt the attack with my body. The good thing with the gourmet cells I awakend in Toriko's universe, not only can I rapidly repair myself with food but it also gives my body the ability to adapt to attacks and enviornment. Mid-way through Ramon's attack, I shook it off. Whis looked at me with slightly wide eyes, I only smiled back with my left index finger to my lips, letting him know to not tell anyone. He smiled back and turned his attention back on the fight.

As the fight intensified, louder noises and much dust covered the ring. The Zen-chans were a disappointed that they couldn't keep up with the fight. The Grand Priest put a stop to the Gods fighting.

Zen-chan 2: If it's gonna be like this, then we should just skip it and get rid of the universes we don't need right now.

Grand Priest: So then shall we cancel all the tournament plans?

Goku: Hang on a second, Zen-chan. You can't call off the tournament! Come on, Zen-chan!

Zen-chan 1: What's up Goku?

Goku: Sure, Beerus and the others' fighting was so crazy that you couldn't really tell what was going on, but ours won't be like that at all!

Zen-chan 1: What should we do?

Zen-chan 2: Then show us one of your fights, Goku!

Grand Priest: I see. That is a good idea.

The Grand Priest then explained to Goku that he could fight Top or Toppo from the 11th universe as they were mortals from different universes. Goku thought he would fight a God but when he heard it was Toppo, he happily agreed. The ring was instantly fixed and the fighters stepped on to the stage. Both Goku and Toppo sized each other up and knew from their first clash that they were holding back. The Zen-chans looked happy to see Goku fight and transform. Goku sped up his transformations because the Zen-chans saw little difference in Goku's Super Saiyan 1 and 2 so he went into 3 quickly.

The gap in strength was still big between Goku and Toppo so he went into Super Saiyan God. The Gods of Destruction were surprised when Goku turned God because even though I suppressed my ki as much as I could none of the Gods paid any attention to me for being in Super Saiyan God the entire time. I was happy that my restraining worked. Even Whis and Beerus gave a "I can't believe you didn't notice" look when the other Gods finally turned their eyes towards us. I turned off my Ginga Rinne Sharingan when the Gods fight ended so I doubt any of them saw me use them.

Beerus yelled out to Goku to end the fight so Goku turned Blue. I noticed the expression on Toppo's face when he saw Goku turn Blue became more serious. Goku, trying to end the fight, threw a projected straight punch that Toppo read, grabbed Goku's arm and kicked him off the stage causing him to lose.

Beerus was mad that Goku gave such a disgraceful loss but if he didn't rush him he wouldn't throw such a simple punch. I shook my head. The Grand Priest told everyone, after watching the fight between Toppo and Goku, the rules that were decided on that will be implamented for the upcoming tournament.

Grand Priest: Please select 10 warriors from each universe, excluding the Gods of Destruction. We've changed the rules to be slightly simpler. For this "Tournament of Power", if you make your battle opponent fall off the stage, then you win.

Sage: What if the opponent is unconscious or unable to move?

Grand Priest: Then please throw them off. Of course, you shouldn't kill them. The time limit for the battle will be 100 Taks.

Goku: 100 Taks?

Whis: In Earth time, that's around 48 minutes.

Sage: Since it is too much time for individual fights, then I guess we will also do a Battle Royale with all fighters in the ring, correct?

Grand Priest: That's correct. After everyone has fought for the designated time, the team with the most warriors remaining will win. Of course, even if the time limit is up, if only one warrior is left standing, then their team will win. As with the battle between the 6th and 7th universes, the overall winner will receive a wish from the Super Dragon Balls, so go ahead and work hard to have your wish fulfilled.

The Supreme Kai of universe 3 asked what will the winning universe get and the Grand Priest answered with "Nothing". The Supreme Kai was confused and tried to make sense by saying that we will be fighting for honor but no the answer remained the same. Nothing will be done to the universe, because the Zen-chan's decided that they wanted to get rid of some universes so the winner will no perish. When that realization came upon all the Gods and Kais they were worried. All, except the Angels of course.

Grand Priest: Not all the universes will participate. Universes 1, 5, 8 and 12 will be excluded from the extermination. Sinces the mortals in those universes have an average level that's higher than 7 they are exempt from taking part in this tournament.

Grand Priest: (Smiling) It is as Sage-san has said. In addition, no weapons or potions are allowed, if any are discovered the universe is disqualified.

After a few minutes the Grand Priest sent us all back to our universes. When we arrived on Beerus' planet he smacked Goku on the back of the head for ignoring his advice. Now we only have 39 hours until the tournament begins.
