Chapitre 111: Going All Out, Perfect Ultra Instinct
And from Jiren's body, Goten sensed the Ki of a God.
'Fusion Jiren?' he thought.
Jiren was known as the righteous warrior of the 11th Universe. Given his aloof personality, he shouldn't have fused to participate in this kind of battle.
His appearance hadn't changed much, but the Potara earrings on his ears and the presence of divine Ki in his body indicated a fusion. It seemed like the target of fusion wasn't someone else; maybe it was another Jiren.
'It seems that after I defeated Belmod last time, he held a grudge and developed a strong fear of me. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen this approach,' Goten thought.
This was definitely Belmod's idea, knowing how powerful Goten was. Even Jiren, the most powerful mortal in their universe, was weak in front of Goten. The only way to defeat Goten was to combine two Jiren.
Goten didn't know where the other Jiren came from, perhaps another timeline. But the purpose of fusing and participating in this tournament must be to get the Super Dragon Balls, to revive his master Ghicchin, or find the demons who slaughtered his entire family.
"Goten, that guy from the 11th Universe is very powerful. I can feel the Ki of a God from his body; that guy must not be underestimated!" Beerus also immediately sensed Jiren's strength.
From Jiren's body, he felt a dangerous Ki. This feeling had never been felt in any mortal except Goten, indicating that the man of the 11th Universe might have power beyond a Hakaishin. Although this was hard to believe, why were more and more mortals possessing power beyond a Hakaishin?
"Ah! I feel it too. That guy's strength is indeed extraordinary. It seems that even I would find it difficult to defeat him," Goten nodded seriously.
If it was Jiren alone, he wouldn't be concerned. As long as he transformed into the Legendary Super Saiyan form, he could easily defeat Jiren. But now the situation was different. This guy was apparently the fusion of two Jiren.
If different fighters fused, their combat effectiveness would multiply. But if the same fighter fused, their combat effectiveness would expand infinitely. And Jiren had divine Ki in his body. Since it was the same person who combined, they might not be able to separate, even if they had more powerful power. The fusion would not disintegrate as soon as possible because of too much power.
"Beerus-sama, Goten, the warrior of the Eleventh Universe is wearing Kaiōshin's Potara earrings, it looks like a fused warrior. After combining with the Potara earrings, the strength will be terribly improved. The 11th Universe is too insidious; they want to use this method to win!" Shin recognized at a glance that the earrings worn by Jiren were their Kaiōshin's Potara earrings. He cursed loudly. How dare they use such an underhanded method to win the tournament! This approach was indeed quite insidious.
"A fused warrior? However, Zeno-sama and Dai-Shinkan-sama did not expressly prohibit fused fighters from participating in the competition," Beerus frowned. That meant Belmod cleverly exploited a loophole in the rules.
"Goten, that guy's strength is obviously beyond the level of a Hakaishin. If you meet him, how sure are you of victory?" Beerus asked with a solemn tone.
"60%! That guy's strength is outrageous. In my current state, I may not be able to beat him," Goten said seriously. However, he still had other strategies. If he used them, his confidence might increase to 80%.
"Damn! In other words, the hope of winning has become so slim? Hateful! Belmod, that bastard!" Beerus frowned tightly and clenched his fists.
"Hmph! Feeling scared at last, Beerus?" Belmod taunted.
"It is undeniable that the mortal of your Seventh Universe is indeed very strong. But the fused strength of Jiren has almost reached the level of an Angel. I don't believe that your Goten from the Seventh Universe can reach this level! The final winner of this game belongs to our 11th Universe."
After seeing Beerus' solemn expression, Belmod's face became even more smug. There was no suspense in this game. Jiren would easily defeat Goten of the Seventh Universe, becoming the most powerful warrior in all universes.
"Darling, although the fused Jiren has great power, Goten of the Seventh Universe is definitely not to be underestimated! His strength is still ridiculously strong. If the Seventh Universe also chooses to combine, then things will be a bit difficult," Angel Marcarita reminded him.
Even if the combined power of Goten and others was not as strong as that of Fused Jiren, you must remember that Goten's basic combat power was far beyond that of a single Jiren. So if he combined with others, he could also erupt with extremely powerful force.
"Yes, you're right," Belmod reacted immediately.
Afterward, Belmod hurriedly said to Jiren at his side, "Jiren, if you want to get the Super Dragon Balls, then your most important opponent is Goten from the Seventh Universe! So absolutely don't give him any chance to fuse. As soon as the battle starts, you should eliminate Goten from the Seventh Universe as quickly as possible. Understood? Only this way can you get the last chance to make a wish and bring your master Ghicchin back to life."
That's how he got Jiren to play. The two things Jiren cared about most in the past few years were bringing his master Ghicchin back to life and finding the enemies who had hurt his master and destroyed his entire family.
"Understood," Jiren nodded nonchalantly. He looked at Goten from the Seventh Universe. Although this way of fusing made him feel very disgraceful, he never thought that one day he would merge with another self to deal with someone. But for his master to be resurrected, such shame was nothing to him at all.
The Hakaishin of other universes also felt the power of Jiren from the 11th Universe. They were mortified! Originally, Goten from the Seventh Universe was too strong for them to handle. Now there was another powerful mortal from the 11th Universe! This simply did not give the other universes any way out!
At this time in the Seventh Universe, Beerus' face was still ugly. But Shin suddenly had an idea, "Goten, since the 11th Universe's fusion is not against the rules, we can also use the Potara earrings for fusion. If you can combine with Trunks, I believe the fighter you create will definitely not be weaker than the fused fighter from the 11th Universe!"
Shin's words made everyone react instantly. Their eyes quickly turned to Goten. Just now, the aura of the combined warrior from the 11th Universe was so strong that they ignored this possibility.
Since the 11th Universe could create fused warriors with Potara earrings, then the Seventh Universe could use the same method! As long as Goten and Trunks could combine, the fighter created would definitely not be weaker than the fused fighter from the 11th Universe. At that time, the possibility of the Seventh Universe winning the final prize would increase to 90% or even higher!
"Shin, you are really smart this time! I just forgot about this method. They let them fuse together; why can't we? Get your earrings here! Goten, Trunks, you two are the most powerful now, hurry up and fuse together!" Beerus said excitedly, hurrying to Goten and Trunks.
Shin immediately took off his Potara earrings and handed them to Goten and Trunks. Looking at the excited faces of the two, Trunks was ready, but Goten shook his head.
"I don't think it's necessary, Beerus," Goten's refusal left everyone stunned. This might be the only way to defeat the combined fighters of the 11th Universe completely. Unexpectedly, Goten refused!
"First of all, I believe that with my own strength, I can defeat the fused fighter of the 11th Universe. Secondly, Trunks and I are not considered the same, and even if we use Potara earrings to fuse, it would not be permanent. Once the strength exceeds what the Potara earrings can withstand, we will separate immediately! Therefore, this combination is unnecessary..." Goten explained.
You must know that Vegito, the fused fighter of Super Saiyan Blue Goku and Vegeta in the Dragon Ball Super Zamasu chapter, did not reach the level of Hakaishin! Even under that kind of force, the Potara earrings could not bear it and disintegrated. The power Goten possesses now alone has surpassed Vegito in the Super Saiyan Blue form. So this fusion simply wouldn't work.
"How so?? Then why didn't the fusion warrior from the 11th Universe separate?" Beerus' extremely excited expression wilted instantly.
"Perhaps that guy is already qualified as the Eleventh Universe Kaiōshin or a Kaiōshin candidate. So they can fuse together forever..." Goten speculated.
"It turns out... that's how it is. Well, since you don't want to fuse together, forget it! I believe in you; even without fusion, you will definitely be able to defeat that guy from the 11th Universe," Beerus nodded, choosing to believe in Goten.
A warrior who could defeat all Hakaishin couldn't lose to a fused mortal from the 11th Universe. They had no choice now; they could only choose to believe in Goten.
"Yes, I will. I don't want the Seventh Universe to be wiped out more than any of you!" Goten nodded firmly. As a mortal in two lifetimes, he didn't want to die more than anyone else!
At this moment, the Grand Priest's voice sounded, "The tournament is about to start. Hakaishin, Kaiōshin, and Angels, please move to the auditorium."
"Goten, Trunks, Goku, and Vegeta, you guys have to win this!" Beerus gave another serious reminder. "This is a matter of life and death for the universe."
Afterwards, several of them jumped and returned directly to the audience stands. The other Hakaishin, Kaiōshin, and Angels also returned to their respective audience stands.
"Everyone, next I will briefly explain the rules and matters needing attention in this Tournament of Power," the Grand Priest announced.
"First of all, the duration of this Power Tournament is 100 Taks. For those unfamiliar with this concept of time, please look at the huge pillar in the center of the ring. When that pillar is fully submerged in the ring, the match is officially over.
"The key to victory is to send your opponent out of the ring! Falling to the ground, admitting defeat, and losing consciousness do not mean elimination as long as you remain on the ring.
"Secondly, during the competition, no hidden weapons, recovery potions, or flying can be used, except for special races with the ability to fly.
"Finally, it is not allowed to kill the opponent. If someone is killed, the universe of the killer will be erased immediately."
"Now, I invite Zeno-sama to say a few words."
After the Grand Priest's voice fell, his body retreated to Zeno's side.
Zeno's voice sounded, "Everyone exert all your strength and bring a wonderful match!" His speech was concise and clear.
"Then everyone, the Tournament of Power has officially started," the Grand Priest announced.
"Hee hee~~ I can finally start the fight! I've been waiting for this day for a long time! It's exciting, isn't it, Vegeta?" Goku said excitedly, gearing up.
"Hmph! I will definitely eliminate more than you, Kakarot," Vegeta smiled confidently. Then, the two jumped out directly.
"Father, Goku..." Trunks frowned, watching the two who had already flown out. These guys were simply out of control!
"Ok guys, please unite and form a circle. Stay close to ensure we don't get eliminated," Trunks and Gohan began to organize everyone.
Piccolo and Krillin were naturally obedient, and Young Trunks stood in the middle since his strength was the weakest.
"Hmph! I've already spotted that foul-mouthed woman from the Sixth Universe. I don't care about uniting or not," Android 21 laughed and walked towards the Sixth Universe. Even if she was eliminated today, she wanted to teach that woman a lesson.
"Weee Yaaay!! I'm going to turn them all into chocolate," Majin Buu rushed directly towards the crowd.
Trunks and Gohan looked embarrassed. It seemed that uniting this group was not easy!
At this time, Goten walked towards Jiren step by step. This guy was his only real opponent in the tournament. As he walked, a brilliant silver aura began to linger around Goten's body. His black hair and pupils turned silvery white in an instant. In an instant, Goten used the perfect Ultra Instinct state. He knew that against the combined Jiren, he couldn't afford to hold back.
"What?? That bastard... is that what I think it is?!" Belmod was dumbfounded seeing Goten surrounded by a silver aura.
"Yes, dear, that's the perfect Ultra Instinct. I didn't expect that mortal from the Seventh Universe to master perfect Ultra Instinct! This kind of talent is indeed a very top existence among mortals!" Angel Marcarita commented.
[T/N: I have irl issues, so translation takes a backseat for a while. Troubles with thesis work etc. Didn't get enough will to give some time to the translation. Have been reading other fanfics to blow off some steam, or trying to make sense of my Thesis work. I can't promise that the translation updates will have some specific release rate. The only thing I can advise is, that, you guys can add the novel to the 'reading list' of the library, because I have no idea if I will disappear again (It sometime happens that when readers don't see the updates, they delete the book from their collection, so leaving it in the 'reading list' tab will be helpful). I have intentions to complete what I started, but the irl works sometimes takes the motivation out of me and I take long brakes to get back on track.]
