Chapter 162 162 Arranging The Tournament of Power, Zeno Exhibition Match Ends
Following the Grand Priest's summons, the Angels of each universe received the message.
Universe 2.
A bewitching, voluptuous woman was looking in a mirror.
Her noble, Cleopatra-like aura was captivating.
She was the God of Destruction of Universe 2, possessing a high aesthetic sense.
She turned to her attendant and asked: "Who is the most beautiful woman in Universe 2?"
The attendant answered: "It is Heles-sama!"
Heles-sama smiled: "Wrong. I am the most beautiful in all the universes!"
"My apologies... Heles-sama is right."
Just then, the Angel approached.
"Heles-sama, Grand Priest summons everyone."
…
Universe 10.
Gowasu apologized: "I am very sorry, Rumsshi-sama!"
The God of Destruction, Rumsshi said: "I heard that Zamasu guy from your place did something stupid. So it's true! And to make matters worse, Beerus had to help. He's the most disliked of the Gods of Destruction!"
Just then, the Angel's staff lit up.
"This is big, Rumsshi-sama. The Grand Priest has sent a contact."
Gowasu and Rumsshi were startled.
"What did you say?"
"Damn. This is big. Should I bring some local specialties... Gowasu, if this is about that Zamasu incident, I'll crush you!"
"Ah, no way..."
…
Universe 9.
The Supreme Kai and God of Destruction were on a barren planet, looking at ruins.
"Possibility of revival: 0%... If we destroy this planet, there's no worry about affecting other planets..."
"Unfortunately, this planet is to be targeted for destruction."
The Supreme Kai asked: "Is there no way to save it?"
"Don't say impossible things, Supreme Kai. This is the God of Destruction's job. But just in case we're wrong, I'll calculate it again."
Just then, the Angel brought news.
"This is big, Sidra-sama! I just received a contact from the Grand Priest..."
"Wait. Let me finish the calculation first, then tell me..."
"What? What did you say?"
…
Universe 11.
The clown God of Destruction was resting on a chair on some planet.
To please him, the planet's king had a group of attendants feeding him fruit.
"Belmod-sama, eat the grape... ah..."
"Gulp!"
"Mm, delicious."
"Belmod-sama, it's my turn to feed you."
"Okay. Today is my 87,910,000th day as God of Destruction. We can party until tomorrow morning."
Suddenly, the Angel, Marcarita's staff lit up.
"Belmod-sama, something has come up."
An attendant whose turn it was to serve Belmod immediately got angry.
Thinking the Angel was also a servant of the God of Destruction, the attendant brandished a knife threateningly at the Angel.
"Who do you think you are? It's my turn! Don't interrupt, or I'll kill you!"
Seeing an attendant speak threateningly to an Angel, Belmod flicked his hand, and a blast of destruction energy immediately erased the attendant.
In an instant, the attendant turned to nothing.
Marcarita smiled: "How pitiful. Is it alright to do that to an innocent person?"
Belmod sneered: "Hmph! We were going to destroy the planet anyway. We're just playing around..."
The clown God of Destruction stood up.
"More importantly, what did you want to say, Marcarita?"
"Yes. It's very urgent. The Grand Priest summons everyone."
...
The Gods of Destruction and Angels of other universes also received the message at the same time.
The Grand Priest quickly received responses from the Angels of each universe and connected them.
"Everyone, did you receive it? Are you all listening now?"
"I have a notification for you. Please have your Gods of Destruction and Supreme Kais stand together. I will teleport you to Zeno-sama's palace shortly. That is all."
Goku asked curiously: "Huh? So everyone is coming here?"
The Grand Priest nodded: "Yes. Please wait one minute."
One minute later.
"Everyone, are you ready?"
"Yes!" x11
"Grand Priest, this is Korn from Universe 8. I'm very sorry. The God of Destruction is ready, but the Supreme Kai has gone to the restroom."
"Then we'll wait for you a bit."
"I'm very sorry."
A moment later, the Grand Priest waved his hand, and the Gods of Destruction, Angels, and Supreme Kais of all 12 universes gathered.
Everyone knelt to pay respects to Zeno.
After everyone stood up, they were all stunned.
Heles asked curiously: "Why are there two Zeno-sama?"
One Zeno waved: "Long time no see, everyone."
The other Zeno said: "This is my first time meeting you."
Goku: "Hehehehe..."
Beerus gritted his teeth, sweat pouring from his head. He thought, 'Goku, that guy...'
Champa turned to look at Beerus and asked: "Hey, Beerus, why is that human from your universe standing over there?"
Beerus shouted: "I don't know. Don't ask me!"
Champa's inner thoughts started churning again.
He thought, 'Could he have done something stupid again?'
He continued whispering angrily to Beerus: "Why are you always causing trouble for other universes!!!"
The mouse God of Destruction muttered: "It's Beerus again. What has he done?"
Zeno scanned the crowd and suddenly asked: "Belmod, behind you..."
"Grand Priest, this is Toppo."
"Actually, I've been thinking about retiring soon. He's a candidate for the next God of Destruction, currently in training. He happened to be with me, so I brought him along to gain some experience."
"Is that so? Then good luck becoming God of Destruction."
"Everyone is here. Then I will announce Zeno-sama's notification."
"Sorry for the suddenness."
"From now, in Five Quakes, the Tournament of Power will be held."
"Warriors from each universe will be selected to compete in a contest of strength and martial arts skills."
"Tournament of Power?"
"Selection?"
Beerus held his forehead and sighed.
"As I feared, this is bad."
Champa muttered again: "That guy is the one who asked Zeno-sama to implement that proposal from before. Damn it."
"In such a short time, how are we supposed to find people..."
Hearing someone mutter, the Grand Priest saw it was the Supreme Kai of Universe 3.
"What's wrong, Supreme Kai of Universe 3?"
"Ah, it's just that the preparation time is a bit short..."
Zeno was startled: "What? What did he say?"
"Actually, for Mosco-sama, the time is a bit short."
Zeno's expression flickered: "Huh? Is that not okay?"
The Angel, Campari said: "Mosco-sama says we can hold the tournament immediately. This proposal is wonderful."
Zeno immediately smiled and said: "Right? I can't wait to see it."
The Zeno from the future started getting curious and consulted with the present Zeno.
"What is the Tournament of Power? I haven't seen it before."
Seeing the two Zenos whispering, the Grand Priest asked: "What's the matter?"
"Um, he says he doesn't understand what's going on."
The Grand Priest nodded: "True. The Zeno-sama from the future hasn't seen it."
"I see. Then... let's hold a simple Zeno Exhibition Match right here!"
Goku was stunned: "Right now?"
The two Zenos were overjoyed and excited: "Ooh, it's starting!"
The Grand Priest knew Zeno's temperament well.
In an instant, a stage was prepared, with 12 stands floating above it.
The personnel from each universe were also thrown onto their respective universe's stands.
A battle between the Gods of Destruction began immediately.
Beerus and Belmod displayed great power.
The other Gods of Destruction were clearly slightly inferior.
But their fight was too intense, far more so than Goku's and the others' fights.
Smoke billowed on the stage, flames constantly flaring.
The fighting figures were completely indistinguishable.
Goku watched excitedly.
"Everyone is mixed up. I can't tell how strong anyone is. To be honest, I've lost track of who is fighting whom..."
The two Zenos couldn't follow either and were clearly displeased.
"Hmm, what are they all doing?"
"I don't know."
"Too fast. Can't see clearly at all."
"Mm, can't see clearly."
"So boring."
"Too noisy."
The Grand Priest noticed. Zeno simply couldn't follow this level of fighting.
"Is that so? Then, I will have them all stop."
Just as the Gods of Destruction were fighting fiercely, the Grand Priest flashed to the center of the stage and interrupted them.
"Grand Priest?"
The Grand Priest said: "Your fight is too intense. Zeno-sama is not enjoying it. The match ends here. Everyone withdraw."
A battered and bruised Champa gasped.
"Whew, saved..."
The present Zeno asked the future Zeno: "What do you think?"
"Mm, I don't understand what's interesting about it."
"Then what should we do about the tournament?"
"If it's like this, we don't need to hold it. Let's just erase the unnecessary universes."
The Grand Priest was stunned: "Then, shall we cancel the Tournament of Power?"
The Zenos' discussion was quiet, and others didn't hear it.
But the Grand Priest's voice carried very clearly, and the audience in the stands heard.
"What? They're going to cancel the Tournament of Power?"
"Great. No need to fight."
Goku, hearing the Tournament of Power might be cancelled, immediately objected.
"Wait a minute, Zen-chan! Don't cancel the Tournament of Power, Zen-chan!"
"What? Goku?"
Hearing Goku dare to call Zeno 'Zen-chan', everyone was shocked.
"Zen-chan? How dare he!"
Goku flew in front of Zeno.
"It's true, the Gods of Destruction's fight is too fierce and unclear. But our fights are different."
"Then what should we do?"
"Then let me see Goku's fight?"
Goku was stunned: "Huh? Me?"
The Grand Priest smiled: "Yes, that's a good idea."
Goku scratched his head and said: "I don't mind, but I can't beat a God of Destruction as an opponent. From watching the fight just now, I know my training is still far from enough."
The Grand Priest shook his head: "No, no. Your opponent will be a human. Isn't Mr. Toppo available?"
Toppo was stunned.
"M-me?"
Goku looked at Toppo excitedly: "If it's him, I might be able to show my power!"
The Grand Priest asked: "Is that alright, Mr. Toppo? Then please go to the stage, both of you."
Belmod immediately said to Toppo: "This is a great opportunity. Go show them your heroic spirit. We can't let them underestimate you!"
"Understood, Belmod-sama."
Soon, the two were on the stage.
The Grand Priest continued: "Then, referencing the previous fight, some restrictions will be added. To ensure Zeno-sama can see clearly, the use of Bukujutsu is prohibited. Weapons are prohibited. Killing the opponent is prohibited. Falling out of the ring counts as a loss."
Goku was stunned: "Huh? We can't fly?"
"That is Zeno-sama's request."
Goku said: "Alright, fine. The other guy can't fly either."
After speaking, Goku and Toppo both assumed fighting stances.
