Chapter 142 142 Heading To The Tournament Venue, Caulifla is Far Inferior to You
Seeing Champa and Vados leave, Beerus looked at Goku.
"The tournament is in five days. Have you decided who will participate?"
"Let me tell you, besides you two and Aaron, the others can't be just there to make up the numbers. Understand?"
Goku nodded: "Don't worry!"
Vegeta looked at Whis and said, "Whis, take us back. We'll go find the fighters now."
"Okay. I didn't expect you two to be so excited."
After speaking, Whis sent Goku and Vegeta back to Earth.
…
At Aaron's house.
"What? A tournament between Universe 6 and Universe 7? Have you decided on the team?"
Goku nodded: "You, me, and Vegeta make three. Plus No.21, that's four."
"Add No.18, and that's five."
"No way, my wife is pregnant…"
Goku was astonished: "What? You sure can reproduce! This is a problem."
Goku stroked his chin and said, "But the three of us should be enough, right? We could just grab Piccolo and Krillin to make up the numbers."
Vegeta was furious: "Kakarot, didn't Beerus-sama tell you not to get people just to fill slots?"
"And what do you mean, Vegeta?"
"With their level of strength, what's the point of them going?"
Aaron raised another objection: "Vegeta, that's not right. The tournament rules don't allow killing, right?"
"Mm, that's the rule."
"Then bring Master Roshi. No one would dare hit him hard!"
Vegeta: "..."
Just then, No.21 walked over and said, "Aaron was joking with you. I'm not pregnant. As for No.18, that's uncertain. Anyway, it's late."
Goku asked, confused, "What's late?"
Vegeta: "None of your business."
Goku: "Vegeta, what do you mean by that?"
No.21 waved her hand: "Alright, Goku. No.18 can't fight, but I can. That makes me, Hubby, you, and Vegeta. We just need one more."
Vegeta sighed: "Then Piccolo. He's the only one decent enough."
Goku clapped his hands, "That's settled!"
"Oh, there's one more thing. Is Bulma here?"
"Hmm? Why do you need her?"
Goku said, "The bet for this tournament is Earth and the Super Dragon Balls that Champa-sama collected. But there are only six Super Dragon Balls. One is missing. I want Bulma to make a large Dragon Radar to find the last one."
"Otherwise, winning won't help."
No.21 smiled, "Leave that to me. The Dragon Balls will appear on their own after the tournament."
Goku and Vegeta were stunned.
"The Dragon Balls will appear on their own? What do you mean?"
"Exactly what I said. You said the tournament starts in five days, right? Come pick us up then. Leave the Dragon Balls to me."
Knowing that she was familiar with future events, Goku and Vegeta didn't ask further and nodded.
"Vegeta, let's hurry and train for two days in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber."
"I was thinking the same!"
After speaking, the two flew towards the Lookout.
After they left, No.21 said, "Barring an unforeseen event, the last Dragon Ball should be right on that planet in the neutral zone."
…
On the nameless planet, Champa and Vados had already started building the tournament venue.
"Need restrooms, drinking water, air..."
"Add a dome, a few benches…"
Not long after, Champa roared, "Finally finished!"
Vados: "Good grief, Champa-sama, I did all the work. You just gave opinions. What's so tiring about that?"
"And this design is pretty old-fashioned!"
"Hey, Vados, thinking is tiring too!"
…
Finally, the day of the tournament arrived.
After a big meal, Earth's group traveled to the tournament site using the transport cube provided by Whis.
Besides the participants, family members also came to watch the excitement.
Aaron's entire family went, all as spectators.
Krillin, Gohan, Master Roshi, and others also tagged along.
Everyone was very interested in the tournament between the two universes.
The transport cube's speed was incredible, much faster than a spaceship, dozens of times faster than light.
Inside, they couldn't see the scenery outside, like being in a space tunnel.
No.21 asked, "Whis, could I borrow this transport cube for a while?"
"Hmm? What for? Want to go on a trip?"
"Mmm, mmm. Is that okay?"
Whis smiled, "Sure. But don't borrow it for too long. If you're gone, no one will feed me when I go to Earth."
"Okay, no problem. And even if I'm not there, Bulma and the others will entertain you well."
Beerus roared, "Whis, you said you hadn't been many times. You just want to go to Earth for food again, don't you?"
"Hehe, Beerus-sama, I'll call you next time I go."
"That's more like it."
Soon, the transport cube approached its destination and slowed down.
"Look, that's the Super Dragon Ball. It's huge!"
"Wow! As big as a planet! Even if we found it, there's no way we could move it, right?"
"No kidding. It seems like something only a god could use."
Just a few moments later, the transport cube landed.
The door opened, and they stepped out.
Champa was already waiting there.
"Hmph. So you came after all. You didn't run."
Beerus was furious: "Hey, Champa, so last time you came to our universe was to collect the Super Dragon Balls? How many did you steal from our universe? Confess!"
"Anyway, you didn't know about the Super Dragon Balls before. What difference does it make compared to leaving them in your universe to gather dust?"
"Hmph! Fine. We are brothers. I'll let it slide this time. After the tournament, all the Dragon Balls will be mine anyway."
"Hmph! I advise you to prepare for defeat!"
Just then, Goku shouted loudly.
"Hey, isn't that Supreme Kai!!"
"Hey, Mr. Goku, long time no see! Beerus-sama invited us, so we came to watch."
"Ha, great."
Vegeta nudged Goku and said, "Hey, look over there. There's someone who looks like Frieza."
Goku turned his head in surprise, "There really is. I'll punch him later!"
Vegeta said, "No, I will!"
"Vegeta, look at that one. There's a metal-looking guy. How strange!"
Just then, Universe 6's Cabba and Caulifla walked over.
"Hey, excuse me, are you Saiyans?"
Vegeta and Goku were stunned.
"Yes. You seem to know about us. Do you have Saiyans in your universe too?"
Cabba replied, "We are both Saiyans."
Goku was amazed: "Really?"
Vegeta looked them up and down, especially Cabba's clothes.
"Judging by your outfit, it seems to be the style from before being absorbed by the Frieza Force."
"Which planet do the Saiyans in your universe use as their base?"
"Mm, Planet Sadala."
After a brief conversation, Vegeta understood. The Saiyans from the other universe weren't a race of marauders.
They were more like warriors defending peace.
No.21 tugged Aaron's arm and said, "Look, the target has appeared. That's the female Saiyan from Universe 6."
Aaron turned to look. He saw Caulifla and Cabba greeting Goku and the others.
Aaron looked carefully for a few seconds and shook his head: "Sigh, that's her? A bit disappointing."
No.21 was stunned: "Why disappointing?"
"Her looks are far inferior to yours. Her figure too."
No.21 blushed coyly: "No way. Hubby just knows how to make me happy."
…
They arrived at the registration area. A table was placed there, along with a stack of test papers.
Vados called out, "Alright, everyone, please take your seats. The written test is about to begin. There are ten questions. For anyone with at least a little intelligence, it's very simple. The time limit is 10 minutes. A score of 50 or above passes."
Everyone started writing furiously.
Moments later, except for Goku who barely scored 50, everyone else passed with full marks.
Goku held up his 50-point paper and said, "Vegeta, you almost made me unable to fight!"
Beerus slapped his forehead.
"We almost shot ourselves in the foot."
"Alright, enough talk. Who's fighting first? Let's arrange the order now!"
No.21 said, "Let me handle it."
Everyone looked at No.21 and nodded.
"Goku first, Piccolo second, Vegeta third, Aaron fourth, and me last. Is that okay?"
Goku said, "Wow, it's my turn already?"
Piccolo said, "Goku, don't hold back!"
Goku laughed, "Do I even need to say it? But are you sure you're okay with this order? I might just take out all of them by myself."
Aaron laughed, "Even better. We can eat while watching!"
Beerus glanced at Aaron.
"You're the anchor. Don't mess up!"
"I don't want us to only win with the last fighter. At the very least, build a lead, or he won't admit defeat."
"Don't worry, Beerus-sama. I'm very steady."
The tournament was about to begin. The announcer led everyone in singing a universal song.
Then the battle began.
"Representing Universe 6 is... Contestant Frost!"
"Representing Universe 7 is... Contestant Goku!"
Goku smirked: "Excellent! I get to punch Frieza right away!"
Off in the distance, Aaron and No.21 were a bit surprised.
Botamo didn't show up... this guy did.
Who knows if he had needles hidden in his arms?
But, it didn't matter.
If he didn't, he'd be reported. He wouldn't be able to explain.
If he did, there'd be time to tell Vegeta.
Besides, they had enough fighters.
Vegeta and Goku would probably both lose to Hit anyway.
No.21 put herself last because she knew the opponent's ace, Hit, had Time-Skip. Against Hit, she could wear him out.
Super regeneration is op... Hit's killing moves wouldn't work on No.21.
Of course, Aaron might also be able to defeat Hit!
But Time-Skip is too powerful. No.21 wasn't 100% sure. She didn't know if Aaron could do it.
But she had absolute confidence in herself.
