Chapter 17: Chapter 17
Meanwhile, on the Sacred World of the Kai in Universe 11, Khai summons the Supreme Kais of every other universe in a conference call fashion. Khai requests that the other Kais refrain from mentioning the universe destruction stipulation to their inhabitants. Gowasu, the Supreme Kai of Universe 10, agrees but asks why Shin, the Supreme Kai of Universe 7, is not present. Khai answers that he has not invited Shin, due to the Tournament of Power being Universe 7's idea in the first place. Roh, the Supreme Kai of Universe 9, yells that this is a waste of time and Khai reminds him that they are meeting to discuss their situation. Roh says he is too busy gathering warriors and signs off. Pell and Eyre, the Supreme Kais of Universe 2 and 3 respectively, begin to argue about their universes' intellectual levels and how Pell thinks it is irrelevant in the Tournament of "Power". They are both silenced by Khai, and Kuru, the Supreme Kai of Universe 4, slander them for spouting out their egos. Khai advises that all of the Supreme Kais join together to request Zeno to reconsider the universe destruction rule to give them a chance to raise their universes' mortal levels. The Kais agree but all realize that Zeno has made his decision and if he is displeased, it would mean erasure on the spot. All of the Kais sign off as they are all busy gathering warriors, and Khai settles on the idea that his universe will have to win, as he believes it is home to the strongest warriors.
Back in Universe 11, Top appears and talks with the General of the Pride Troopers: Kahseral, who asks him what happened at the Zen Exhibition Match. They are called to fight an attacking monster on the Planet Daldon, and they ride a ship to head there. In Universe 6, Champa calls for a meeting with the Gods of Destruction after finding out about the Supreme Kais' meeting. Mosco, the God of Destruction of Universe 3, asks why Champa has not invited Beerus. Quitela of Universe 4 says they should leave Beerus out due to his universe being responsible for the tournament. Vados argues that everyone should be in Goku's debt because if he didn't suggest having the Tournament of Power, the lower level universes would have already been erased, and this way they have a chance for survival. Sidra of Universe 9 and Rumsshi of Universe 10 show ill will towards Goku's child-like behavior and his closeness with Zeno. Heles of Universe 2 unrepentantly and openly admits that she considers Goku quite attractive. Belmod of Universe 11 is confident that Universe 7 will be unable to stand up against his fighters.
On Daldon, Araghne and Dorakiyan are running amok. Dyspo of the Pride Troopers shows up and fights Araghne head-on, but is trapped in its tentacles. Before he is eaten, he is saved by Top and Kahseral. United with his teammates, Dyspo poses with Top and Kahseral, who launch a combined attack on Araghne and defeats it. Top throws Dorakiyan into Araghne's mouth, destroying them. On the ship, Top tells his team about the Tournament of Power. They agree on recruiting Pride Trooper members from other planets, including Jiren, who is currently meditating.
In Universe 6, Cabba is flying in a spaceship, and he says that even though Hit is strong, it's not guaranteed he'll be able to win against 70 opponents. He flies to a planet to meet his friend, Renso, but Renso injures his leg as he tries to open the door for Cabba. Renso praises Cabba for his hard work being the ace of the Saiyan elite unit, the Sadala Defense Force, and Renso is revealed to be Cabba's former Captain. Renso heard about Cabba's new ability, and Cabba agrees to show it to him, turning into a Super Saiyan. Renso is impressed and is relieved that the universe is safe as long as Cabba is here. Cabba then tells him about the Tournament of Power and asks him to enter since his battle experience will come in handy. Renso refuses, due to his retirement and his injured leg, but advises Cabba to take his sister, Caulifla, with him, saying that even though she seems like a punk, her potential power is even greater than Renso's.
Over in Universe 10, Gowasu is fretting over which warriors he should select to fight in the tournament because he doesn't want to mess up and pick someone like Zamasu again. Rumsshi and his Angel Kusu stop by to tell Gowasu he's overthinking things and rather than using his head, he should decide with his body. To that end, Rumsshi and Kusu have brought along ten warriors Rumsshi has already selected their leader, Murichim, introduces himself, but he and his fellow fighters soon need to take a timeout to drink their protein drinks. They must do this regularly to build up their beefy bodies! Rumsshi thinks he can depend on this group, but Gowasu doesn't seem quite so certain.
After all, the Grand Minister explains, not all the universes' team-gathering efforts are going so well. For instance, Universe 9 is having a tough time: word has gotten out about their universe's potential destruction, causing hoodlums to run wild and attempt to flee to other universes. Sidra destroys the city and decides to look for contestants on some other planet. So far they still haven't managed to gather anyone besides the Trio of Danger in Universe 6, Hit tracks down Frost, who's on the run from the law and slumped over in an alley somewhere. Assuming Hit has come to kill him, Frost at first seems to accept his fate, but this is a bluff to catch Hit off-guard. While Hit blocks the attack, he can tell Frost has improved; being on the run seems to have toughened him up.
Right then, an audition is being held in Universe 2 to select their universe's "idol warrior" to enter the tournament. A slim, green-haired girl lines up, and some other ladies in line harass her: did she think this was merely an idol audition? But the girl, Brianne de Chateau, quickly transforms into a pink, chubby warrior known as Ribrianne, who proceeds to blow her opponents up with her Pretty Cannon attack. In Universe 10, Kusu has Murichim and his nine warriors dance together in order to "improve their team bonds". Off on the side, Gowasu tapes the event, which he's sure will get plenty of views (presumably on GodTube). The Universe 10 warriors dance has Zeno excited, but the Grand Minister notes that there's trouble brewing in Universe 7. Back on Earth, Goku cools off after his training while Gohan and Shin consider strategy. Gohan thinks they should stick to the center of the arena to avoid ring-outs, but Shin figures everyone else will try the same thing, turning the center into a fierce battlefield.
The time for the Tournament of Power draws near, and before it begins, the Supreme Kais, Gods of Destruction, and their Angels of the 4 universes exempt from entering (Universe 1, Universe 5, Universe 8, and Universe 12) arrive and observe the fighting stage. They comment that the stage looks plain, but accept this as no decorations are needed for a competition of power. They wonder if this stage would be able to stay stabilized as the matches go on. Grand Minister arrives, telling them that lord Zeno is in the antechamber waiting for the tournament to begin. Grand Minister explains that the fighting stage is created from Kachi Katchin, a material harder than Katchin of Universe 7. Grand Minister offers them to test the stage out, believing Zeno to be bored until the tournament begins, and Liquiir, God of Destruction of Universe 8, happily accepts, wanting to show Zeno their superiority over the other universes. Liquiir, along with Iwan and Arak, the Gods of Destruction of Universes 1 and 5 respectively, prepare to battle in a free-for-all using the Tournament of Power's rules. Giin, the God of Destruction of Universe 12, is asked why he won't be competing, and he says the results would be obvious if he did.
The match begins, and the three Gods of Destruction begin fighting each other to such intensity that their movements can barely be seen and each attack decimates part of the fighting stage's floor. The three collide huge energy attacks, creating a large crater. Grand Minister calls the match to an end, and the three Gods thank each other, also asking if Zeno was satisfied with their match. Grand Minister shows that Zeno did not watch their match because he is taking a nap, and Grand Minister also requests the perplexed Gods to repair the fighting stage, as he will be too busy opening the gates.
Goku is fascinated at the stage, and soon the groups of the other universes arrive, first being Team Universe 4. Beerus notes to Whis that they could have teleported without holding hands, but Whis was jokingly attempting to raise the team's morale, even though Beerus says that almost tore it apart. Krillin directs the group's attention to the side of the stage, revealing pure darkness. Whis reminds the team that they cannot fly to counter falling off the stage, and Goku confirms this by attempting to fly, showing that their Flight is nullified. Granolah directs the group to Team Universe 10, showing that a couple bird-like warriors are flying, and Whis says that they can do so manually due to their wings. Whis, Beerus, Shin, and Old Kai head to the spectator seats wishing the warriors good luck.
Team Universe 6 has arrived, and Frost introduces himself to the group, particularly Cell as he can sense his race's energy in him . Goku says hello to Hit, and Cabba reunites with his de facto mentor, Vegeta, introducing him to Caulifla and Kale. Excited at meeting female members of his people (even if they are from another universe), Goku tries to shake Caulifla's hand, but Caulifla slaps it away, stating that it is unwise to become close to an opposing universe. Despite the rude gesture, Goku cheerfully agrees with her. Krillin asks Gohan if he will be okay controlling himself Gohan says that this realm can't be destroyed but yes he can . Team Universe 9 shows resentment towards Universe 7 (mainly due to Goku and the fact that they lost all three matches to them in the Expo), but show confidence in their warriors. Frost and Cell engage in a conversation, agreeing to fight with each other.
Grand Minister is contacted by Team Universe 11, and as they arrive, Goku, Vegeta. and Cabba feels their ki and stand on guard. Caulifla says if Universe 7's Saiyans are afraid, then they are nothing to worry about, which aggravates Vegeta. Goku goes to greet the Pride Troopers, wanting to settle his business with Top. Top says he is uninterested in personal squabbles, and he is determined to fight to save his universe. Goku tries to greet Jiren, but Jiren suddenly appears behind Goku, harshly advising him to step away. Goku wonders how he got behind him, and Liquiir, Iwan, and Arak notice the warriors gathering and they pick up the pace, with everyone being forced to dodge the blocks they're throwing around, but to Goku's surprise, Jiren is unfazed as the blocks narrowly pass by him.
The fighting stage is finished, and every universe has gathered. Goku notices a Yardrat on Team Universe 2, his son and Vegeta agreeing with him to watch out for the combatant if he knows Instant Transmission. The group also notices that Universe 4 has only 8 warriors, but Tien realizes that even though it's faint, he can sense the presence of the remaining two, who are concealing themselves. Every universe is formally introduced, and Gohan says that once the fight begins, they should gather and strengthen their defense, and to work together to fight, however, Vegeta and Cell disagree. Zeno greets everyone and tells them to make this fight exciting to watch. Thus, the Tournament of Power is about to officially begin.
The Tournament is going to begin in 30 minutes so Gohan decides to meditate until he needs to he picks up where he left off on Earth right before Piccolo found him he makes his energy so small that not even an insect could detect it he also puts a barrier around himself so he can't be attacked only Tien and Piccolo can sense what he's doing right before he closes his eyes he says to the entire team this is what all of that training was for remember to pace yourselves and preserve your strength I can only heal you all back to full strength twice after that I will have to rest and recuperate they nod Gohan closes his eyes and right away after mediatating for 10 minutes he can sense that there's alot of strong fighters here.
The eight universes participating in the Tournament of Power are staring each other down. Zeno is excited as the Grand Priest makes his entrance on top of the stage's main pillar. Grand Priest goes over the rules again: the time limit is 100 takks (48 Earth minutes), and the use of weapons, killing, and Flight are not allowed, however warriors with wings may still fly. Gohan goes over the strategy again with Universe 7: stick together and always fight with superior numbers, however, Vegeta and Cell once again show sarcastic disagreement. Kale is afraid and Caulifla tells her to remember to "go flashy" again. Goku and Top stare each other down, and Cell is amused at the amount of tension and bloodlust in the air. Yamcha offers to fight against the female warriors, and Tien shows skepticism. Shin is worried about his universe, and Old Kai tells him to just trust in them as their fates rest in the warriors' hands. Beerus yells at his fighters about teamwork, and Quitela mocks and laughs that Beerus, of all people, would spout teamwork which Beerus refuses to retort to.
The Tournament of Power finally begins, and every warrior rushes to face another warrior, soon engulfing the entire battle stage with energy lights and sounds of combat. Universe 7 sticks together in the ensuing chaos, however, Goku spots Top fighting with Magetta and flies away to fight him, but he is interrupted by Ganos. Gohan tries to remind Goku about their teamwork strategy, but Granolah, Vegeta, and Cell also fly away to fight. Narirama, a modified robot warrior from Universe 3, begins spinning himself in order to knock some fighters away, and Heles of Universe 2 comments that it's not beautiful for her female warriors to be attacked before they transform. The Universe 3 gods dub this method the "Super Survival Mode", however, it was easily shut down by Hit and Basil. A female warrior from Universe 10, Rylibeu, fights against Basil, however he counters her attack and knocks her out of the ring, revealing that defeated warriors are instantly transported to the stands to spectate. In order to keep track of the fighters, the Zeno reveals that he has a tablet, called the GodPad, that they use to mark the fighters who have been knocked out.
The Universe 10 God of Destruction, Rumsshi, berates Rylibeu for forgetting to use her wings, and for the fact that his universe is the first to have a fighter being knocked out. Beerus cheers for his universe, however, he overhears Champa cheering for Universe 6 to knock out Universe 7 out of spite (likely due to losing the Tournament of Destroyers to his brother). Granolah Vegeta, Cell, and Goku are fighting their respective battles, and the remainder of Universe 7: Gohan, Piccolo, Krillin, Tien, Yamcha and Broly are surrounded by Botamo, Shosa, Comfrey, Dercori, and Lavender, who wants revenge against Gohan. The Universe 7 fighters assume a Manji Formation, following the plan, and they initiate a combo attack: Tien's Solar Flare, Piccolo's Special Beam Cannon, Krillin's Destructo Disc, Gohan's energy beam barrage, and Yamcha's Spirit Ball to attack the fighters. However, the fighters remain unharmed, and Yamcha compliments them as they are indeed worthy of entering the tournament.
Basil is fighting a sumo-wrestling warrior, Napapa, and fails in knocking him out. While Goku continues to fight Ganos, the latter leaves in frustration of the Saiyan's power, allowing Goku to lay eyes on Top, who looks back at him before he is knocked aside by Murichim, revealing Jiren to be standing still in the ensuing chaos. Zeno spots Jiren and they agree to keep an eye on him. Goku prepares to battle Jiren one on one, but he is grabbed behind and held in a headlock by a muscly warrior from Universe 4, Nink. Despite Goku fighting to be free, Nink prepares to jump off the ring, intending to sacrifice himself to eliminate Goku. Before they both fall off, Goku goes Super Saiyan to overpower the fighter, sending him knocked down and saving himself. Beerus, clearly flustered and frightened by the near loss of his greatest warrior, yells at Goku for not doing that before, but Goku wants to save his power. Goku is then surrounded by a number of warriors, including the Trio De Dangers, however, he smiles, wanting to be in this kind of situation.
Several warriors from Universe 9, including Basil, Lavender, & Bergamo immediately surround Goku. Roh cackles while he waits for Goku to feel despair just as Champa similarly holds out hope for the trio to eliminate the Saiyan, aware that he is Universe 7's ace and that his defeat will spell the end of his brother's universe. Goku immediately engages the warriors in battle, excited to fight them again, especially Bergamo, commenting that Bergamo hid his power in the Zen Exhibition Match and only used the power he stole from Goku. Beerus has full confidence in Goku's ability to handle the "furry nobodies" but reminds him not to waste his power by prolonging his contest with them and to focus only on eliminating them. Goku remarks to his destroyer that he is only warming up, which annoys the Trio. Shin asks why Goku is not going Super Saiyan to finish them off quickly, and Whis answers by saying since the form drains stamina heavily, Goku is pacing himself by making sure he has enough stamina to last the whole tournament since the use of Senzu Beans are prohibited. Old Kai criticizes Shin for not figuring this out. Zeno and even the Grand Minister show interest in Goku going against the Trio De Dangers' combination attacks. Lavender reveals his Poison Blow, and relentlessly attacks Goku with his brothers, as Goku desperately dodges Lavender's attacks to avoid being poisoned, knowing about how dangerous it is. To counter it, Goku creates a ki barrier around himself, having discussed with Gohan about how to counter the poison, and is able to attack and defend against it. However, the combined might of the three brothers seem to keep Goku on the defensive.
Cell, having defeated Napapa, notices Goku having fun and prepares to have fun himself. Roselle tries to attack Cell from behind, but Cell casually fires a Death Beam without turning his back and shoots Roselle's wings, rendering the tactic useless. Helpless, Roselle screams in despair as Cell ruthlessly attacks him, wanting to turn him into his "plaything". Bergamo explains that in order to survive in the "garbage dump" that is Universe 9, the Trio De Dangers had to work together to team up and defeat opponents more powerful than them individually, revealing their combination attack: Dangers' Triangle. Vegeta, knocking back Nigrissi and Obni, notices Goku's struggle and arrives to assist him, asking him why he is wasting his time with the trio, referring to them as "puppies" and "mutts". Goku reminds Vegeta that it's tough to fight three of them at once when their energy can't be sensed. Whis is aware that even though Goku and Vegeta working together would mean they would have no trouble, but Whis acknowledges that neither of them have that kind of mentality. With Goku and Vegeta against 8 enemies, Goku suggests they split 4 each, but Vegeta refuses and wants to fight whoever attacks him first, leading to his battling Lavender, creating a ki barrier due to knowing about his poison.
Vegeta is then suddenly attacked by Hop and her claws, and Lavender also attacks him. Chappil goes against Goku with his iron body, and Goku and Vegeta find themselves fighting nearly all 10 Universe 9 warriors (sans Roselle and Sorrel) and their combination attacks. To Beerus' annoyance, Champa roots for Universe 9, knowing that if Goku and Vegeta are out of the picture, the rest of Universe 7 is easy pickings. Goku and Vegeta are pushed back by the Universe 9 warriors, and Vegeta's hand is frozen solid by Hyssop's Ice Lance. Despite this, Vegeta narrowly dodges Hop's claw slash, and she accidentally attacks Lavender. With the two distracted, Goku takes the opportunity to go Super Saiyan and knock Chappil and Comfrey off the stage. Vegeta then unleashes a combo attack on Hop, knocking her out. Whis explains that after they froze Vegeta's hand, they rushed trying to end things, but their coordination got sloppy, and they were left wide open. Vegeta's other hand is trapped by Oregano's webs, but he goes Super Saiyan and frees both of his hands, telling him not to underestimate his power. Vegeta assaults Hyssop with multiple attacks, knocking him and Oregano out with a single powerful attack. With 7 warriors eliminated (Sorrel was knocked out off-screen by Broly and Roselle was scared of Cell and willingly jumped off), the Trio De Dangers are left to face Goku and Vegeta.
The three are overwhelmed by the two Super Saiyans and unleash their final, desperate combo attack: Triangle Danger Beam. Vegeta and Goku go Super Saiyan 2 and unleash their Final Kamehameha combo attack, knocking the Trio De Dangers out of the ring. With this, every Universe 9 warrior has been eliminated, and as a consequence, their universe will be erased. The remaining warriors watch as the two Zenos immediately erase the frightened Universe 9 warriors, Roh, Sidra, along with their entire universe, except Mohito, who mischievously smirks to himself. Beerus has Whis confirm that Universe 9 has been completely erased from existence, and every remaining fighter realizes the severity of the situation they're in, especially Goku.
Having stopped their fighting, every warrior stood in disbelief over the sudden erasure of Universe 9, including the spectating Gods. Vegeta is surprised that Zeno really followed through with the extreme stipulation, and Goku earnestly points out that this is the first time they witnessed an entire universe being erased Goku reminds Vegeta that if Zeno decides to erase something, then it's getting erased no matter what, and he confidently states that he will be the last warrior standing, with Vegeta replying that he'll be the last one standing. Mohito, the Angel of Universe 9, snidely comments that he is the first out since his universe was erased, and it was to be expected. Anato, Supreme Kai of Universe 1, states that Universe 9's sacrifice was necessary. Also adding that everyone should show gratefulness and gratitude to Goku for his hand in orchestrating the Tournament of Power, as all of the lower-level universes have a chance to survive instead of being arbitrarily erased. And since they were defeated, they deserved to be erased to balance the universes. The spectators of Universe 7 are shaking that Zeno erased Universe 9 with no hesitation, and Vados laughs at Champa's nervousness and reminds him that he needs his fighters to try hard, so he won't get erased.
Krillin, rattled by what transpired, takes a deep breath and calms himself down, and Gohan makes sure his teammates haven't lost their morale. Cell notes that Zeno's actions are vexing, and vows that he will one day beat even them. Granolah is also a little rattled, but Broly reminds him that if they lose, they will be erased and there won't be a chance for them to feel despair. He reminds him of their advantage of being Gohan's students and not to mention that their teacher still hasn't unleashed his true powers yet Granolah smirks , and they both agree to cut loose. Zeno wonders why everyone stopped fighting, and Grand Minister says they should start again once they regain their composure. Old Kai notes that since everyone witnessed Zeno actually erasing a universe, they will be more cautious and rework their strategies.
Hit and Botamo start walking towards Goku and Vegeta, and they both remind each other to not waste their power. Vegeta wants to repay Hit, transforming into a Super Saiyan and tries to attack the assassin, but Botamo blocks his attack while Hit teleports. Vegeta continues to punch Botamo, but he takes no damage. However, when Botamo attacks, Vegeta tries to throw him, remembering Botamo's ability from his fight with Goku. Botamo, also remembering how Goku bested him, stops himself, but Vegeta ties his arms together and picks him up, preparing to throw him off the side to the delight of Beerus. Champa screams for someone to help Botamo, and Auta Magetta punches Vegeta aside. With Botamo free, he and Magetta prepare to jump Vegeta, but Vegeta smirks.
Dium tries to attack Krillin, but Gohan counters the attack, saying there's no need for them to exert too much. Piccolo takes off his weights as does everyone else but Gohan , despite Beerus telling him to just run, uses Destructo Disc Triple Blade to cut Dium's wings, and he is knocked out of bounds by Yamcha's Kamehameha. Beerus reminds Vegeta that Magetta's weakness is verbal assaults, leading to Vegeta using several sardonic insults towards the metal man. Champa laughs and says Magetta overcame that weakness. Botamo sits on Magetta's shoulders, calling themselves Bota Magetta with Botamo's invincible body and Magetta's mental strength. But an annoyed Vegeta points out that Botamo is covering Magetta's ears to counter the insults. Magetta shoots his Lava Spit, and Vegeta dodges and tries to punch Botamo off, but Botamo absorbs the damage, calling himself and Magetta invincible. Vegeta scoffs at the duo's laughable tactics while avoiding being grabbed by Magetta.
Whis points out Granolah's battle with Shosa, who is overwhelmed and knocked out by Granolah, but after a hard attack, he was considered to have been killed. However, his specialty is playing dead, and he attacks Granolah when he checks on his body. Before he is knocked off the stage, Krillin saves him. Granolah says he'll pay Shosa back in full, but Shosa offers them to jump off the stage while they still can, saying that Granolah's pretty face shouldn't get messed up. Granolah and Krillin agree to try a new attack they practiced, and Krillin fires a Ki Blast that Shosa dodges, but Granolah knocks it back. Krillin and Granolah play ping-pong with the Ki Blast with Shosa in the middle, and he notices that after each hit it grows bigger. Granolah then knocks the huge Ki Blast towards Shosa, who is knocked off.
Krillin is suddenly attacked from behind by Majora, but Granolah protects him. He wonders if they can defeat him, revealing his closed eyes, and Krillin gives Granolah the shades he borrowed from Master Roshi without him noticing, using the Solar Flare x100. However, it proves ineffective, and Krillin is knocked down, with Majora commenting that his eyes lost their sight long ago. Krillin wonders how he was able to pinpoint their location despite the light, but Granolah points out that he's using his sense of smell. Krillin prepares to fight Majora alone, dismissing Granolah's concern. Krillin and Majora go head-to-head, and when Majora attacks, Krillin throws his shoe at him, stunning Majora with its stench. With Majora distracted, Krillin knocks him off with a Kamehameha. Krillin is triumphant on his victory, but Granolah is embarrassed, saying when he gets home, he should burn his shoes. With Krillin distracted, he's suddenly knocked down close to the edge by Frost. When Granolah tries to retaliate, Frost creates a smokescreen and disappears after the smoke clears Granolah sees that Krillin is still in the ring but barely so he gets him away from the side before he is knocked out.
Goku, Vegeta, Frieza, Cell and Granolah immediately split from the rest of Team Universe 7 to go and do their own thing. Cell quickly targets the fighters from Universe 10, and it takes him no time at all to knock off Murisam and almost Rubalt who clings on to the side with a single hand just before Granolah comes along and steps on his hand to make him fall. Cell also effortlessly overwhelms Dium though he is not knocked out of the arena. Granolah confronts Prum and hits him with such force that he flies back and snacks into Jimizu as the two fall off. Elsewhere Nink and Catopesra engage in battle until Vegeta shows up between the pair and makes quick work of them, blasting them off the platform Goku meanwhile attempts to go after Jiren but fights himself in engaged in battle against six members of the Pride Troopers and is put into a strong hold by Tupper. In order to break free Goku transforms into a Super Saiyan and gains the advantage, knocking down each member of the Pride Troopers but just as he is about to go after Jiren again, he takes off not even taking notice of Goku at all.
Frost pummels away at Oregano when Cell intervenes advising him not to waste much of his energy and asks him to do him a favor by taking out the three weak Earthlings, Yamcha, Krillin and Tien Shinhan for him saying that he doesn't care about winning and is only involved to take out the Saiyans which he will do when the time is right when inside his mind he really wants to test their strength against Frost to see if they have gotten any stronger After the other fighters of Universe 7 scattered to fight on their own, Krillin, Yamcha , Gohan, Piccolo, and Tien decided to stick together. Suddenly, the group is attacked by Auta Magetta. When the group dodges his attack, Frost takes the opportunity to try to knock off a distracted Krillin, it fails for a second time . Beerus yells at Krillin for getting distracted twice , Champa yells at Frost for failing twice until Dr. Rota suddenly appears, saying he had no time to use his magic spells to avoid getting eliminated. Shin notices that several fighters from other universes are also appearing in the stands.
Frost is fighting Tien and Yamcha at once, preparing to eliminate them both . Gohan notices his teammates having trouble which is odd until he notices that they are pacing themselves and trying to learn how Frost fights , he smiles and is about to help Krillin but he is stopped by the Trio De Dangers of Universe 9. The team of Bergamo, Lavender, and Basil attack Gohan as a group, and the young Saiyan has trouble with their teamwork. at first until he uses his special vision to learn their moves and attack patterns Piccolo is fighting against Hyssop, Sorrel, and Roselle of Universe 9, and Tien tells Yamcha to get ready for their combo attack he nods and they fire a Super Dodon Kamehameha at Frost. The blast attracts the attention of other fighters nearby. With both men panting a little as they still aren't used to the strain of that technique . Krillin asks if the attack worked, and Broly said it didn't, pointing out Frost emerging from the smoke only slightly injured. Frost dusts himself off, ridiculing their full power, commenting that "he" was right about the three humans being weak. Frost suddenly charges at Tien and lands a hard punch, kncoking him out but not out of the arena. Frost then directs his attention to Yamcha . The Universe 7 warriors notice Frost conversing with Cell, and they speculate that Cell could be leaking intel about his teammates to Frost.
