They both took on their stances as they looked at each other. Broly's power was rapidly growing as did his body size and hair.
Without delaying he was going Super Saiyan 3 right off the bat. Unlike any Saiyan previously, when he transformed there were no major or violent energy pressuring the near periphery.
His energy was tame as he quietly transformed. The only indication of the powerful change was his physical appearance as well and the ki that was enveloping his body.
One could sense his ki but the ground beneath his feet weren't cracking neither whirlwinds arose. Hit became more cautious.
Hit clenched his fists and tried to find an opening in Broly's presence. Although he couldn't find one, he would just need to test if he could open one!
He didn't overthink the situation anymore and used his time skip to pass Broly. He punched out while exiting his personal dimension. The world was again revealed to him. His punch directly landed on Broly's right back shoulder.
Hit had concentrated his energy into a single point and managed to pierce into Broly's skin. However, he couldn't celebrate his success as Broly's left heel was heading for his head.
Hit hurriedly punched out with his free hand and met Broly's heel.
Fortunately for him, his strength was apparently slightly stronger than Broly's, but he still chose to retreat. He felt that Broly was luring him in.
Hit could feel his hand tingling from the impact. It seemed to have met his hand awkwardly. If the kick was minimally stronger, the bones might have been seriously injured due to the impact.
His hand grew numb, but he didn't check it as he was watching Broly. Broly reached out to his shoulder before looking at his hand, which was slightly dyed red from his blood.
Broly looked at Hit and couldn't help but smirk.
The strength of that punch was several times higher than when he fought Cooler in the previous round. It seemed that even Cooler wasn't able to force Hit to go all out.
Broly raised his hand slightly and with his forefinger waved Hit towards him. He had a grin on his face as if he wasn't impressed by Hit's attack in the least.
No, it was more than that. He seemed like he was looking down on it. This made Hit frown slightly before he relaxed again.
'I will see where you get your confidence from and then crush you with all I have!' Hit thought as he dashed towards Broly.
Several copies of Hit appeared all running towards Broly, while spreading out to cover a greater range.
"Oh man. I can't see any difference between these Hits!" Goku exclaimed from the contestant area.
The others were quiet, but they too couldn't differentiate them. They had only seen it shortly against Cooler before Cooler released a supernova.
Broly didn't look like he wanted to use the same method as the Frost Demon before him. He was just standing calmly as he watched the copies heading towards him.
Even Beerus was frowning as he intently looked at the battle. This was the final match. The winner would decide, which side would win this tournament.
They then jumped towards and attacked Broly at the same time. Broly ignored most of the copies but suddenly defensively raised his right arm next to his head, while kicking out to the right.
Hit's punch was barely blocked. Broly's kick on the other hand landed squarely on Hit's stomach. Hit was sent flying but quickly stopped as he used his feet to reduce his speed.
"I figured as much." Hit said out indifferently.
Back in their first fight, Broly was able to tell, where he would emerge from his dimension. It wasn't surprising that he could tell that these copies could do no damage.
He also figured out that he should stay with his new method of using his ability as it seemed to be working against Broly.
He was now starting his attack inside his dimension and only appear when it was already arriving. This was only possible as he was able to remain in his dimension for a longer period of time.
Additionally, he used his dimension to cover a greater area than before, so the possibilities where he would emerge increased.
With this even if Broly knew in which area he would emerge. He wouldn't know the specifics.
Would Hit come out in front or behind him, from the sides or from above?
Hit dispersed the copies and skipped through time and instantly arrived right next to Broly. Hit's kick landed directly on Broly's unprotected chest, but Broly wasn't sent flying.
Broly gritted his teeth as he stayed put with his legs deeply pierced in the ground.
He quickly grabbed Hit's leg and pulled it towards him but Hit quickly skipped time again appearing behind Broly.
Unfortunately, Broly seemed to have predicted this as he already jumped up, spun around and aimed at Hit's head with a tornado kick.
Hit tilted his head and was only slightly grazed. As he retreated a long red line on the side of his face appeared and blood was flowing out.
Hit frowned as he wiped away the blood. Every warriors' vitality from the contestant was high and could easily stop a small wound like this from bleeding excessively.
Hit again put up both his hands. He suddenly disappeared again and Broly prepared for the incoming attack.
Broly couldn't tell from where the attacks came from, so for him too it seemed to be instantaneously.
There were only a few centimeters before the attack landed for Broly to use in trying to defend against it. If he couldn't then at least trade with it!
This was how he decided to fight against Hit. Of course, he could use his illusion to distract Hit for a moment or even make him completely dazed, but this would be too boring.
Besides he still had several surprises left. He was confident that he would even win without using his soul.
In fact, his power now was a lot weaker than in their previous fight. Even Hit could barely tell the difference as Broly's reacting speed was abnormal.
Hit had contributed it to Broly's increase in strength and speed as he couldn't sense if Broly used his soul or not.
When Broly was emerged in god ki and had yet to completely internalize his ki, his body was heavy and therefore moved too slow to react to the attacks of the robot accordingly.
He couldn't just rely on his reaction speed through his 5 senses to intercept the attacks as he would still be hit, especially after Whis had increased the numbers of robots.
So, how did he dodge the attacks later on if he didn't rely on the normal 5 senses? He predicted the attacks and trained himself to sense the danger that would be coming.
Yes, it wasn't much, but he was able to have a small success in Ultra Instinct! Even if Hit's attack were almost instantaneously, he was still able to barely dodge and block the attacks.
Obviously, it was far from the full potential of Ultra Instinct as shown by Goku against Jiren, however, it still gave him a major advantage.
Although Hit didn't know of this and assumed that it had to do with this weird power boost that Broly had shown him in the previous fight, this didn't mean everyone was overlooking this.
Whis smiled as he observed Broly's movement, while Beerus had doubts in his eyes. He didn't dare come to the conclusion that Broly was able to grasp something from this mysterious realm.
Champa was oblivious as he screamed at Hit to finish Broly off, after all it seemed that Broly was under a lot of pressure.
Vados on the other hand was frowning deeply. Her strength and knowledge were at least on par with Whis, so she could tell something was off.
It didn't take long before her thoughts were coming to that conclusion. Her eyes widened before she looked at Whis, who gave her a calm smile.
She instantly understood from Whis' smile that it really was what she had thought.
She gritted her teeth as she continued to watch the fight. 'I should have forced him to become a candidate to become the god of destruction of my universe!'
Although she felt regret, her expression quickly relaxed again, so no one was able to see what she was thinking.
Champa, of course, was too focused on the fight as to notice the change of his attendant's face.
Hit had already tried several distractions to get some hits on Broly, however if it wasn't instantaneously, it would only help Broly to counterattack. Hit now resorted to one of his trump cards.
It was something to counterattack someone, who could see where he would emerge and finish him off in a second. In fact, it was just an improved version of the time skip method he used the whole time up to now.
