Chapter 359 359: I Don’t Need a Master
All the fighters took their positions, and barriers rose over all sixteen arenas at once.
In Broly's arena, Champa's body trembled slightly. Cold sweat poured down his face as he stared at the towering figure across from him.
Broly was staring at him too.
"You look a lot like Beerus," Broly suddenly said.
"You know Beerus?"
"Of course."
Broly's lips pulled back, but it was not a smile. It was killing intent made almost tangible.
"A long, long time ago, he came looking for some prophesied Super Saiyan God. That was when he found me."
"We fought."
"At first, he was disappointed in my power. Until he forced my father, Paragus, to release the restraints on me."
Champa had imagined countless ways his fight with Broly might begin, but he had never expected Broly to start by chatting.
Naturally, not fighting such a terrifying monster was for the best.
At the same time, he was curious about what had happened between Broly and Beerus back then.
"And then?"
"In that battle, I showed strength far beyond what he expected. Then I punched him in the face."
Champa's pupils shrank.
He had been able to punch Beerus in the face back then?
What kind of joke was that?!
More importantly, with Beerus's temper, being struck in the face by Broly would have carried extremely serious consequences.
The fact that Broly had survived was already a miracle.
Sure enough, Broly's next words unfolded exactly as Champa expected.
"After Beerus was hit by me, he became very angry."
"He said a mere Saiyan dared to wound a god."
"Then he tried to erase me completely with destruction energy."
Broly's voice remained calm, but Champa heard a chill beneath it.
"I survived."
"On the verge of death, I was sealed in ice for a full thousand years."
"It took that long for me to recover from that state."
A thousand years!
No wonder this guy had grown to such a level!
"Do you know what kept me going for those thousand years?"
A bad feeling rose in Champa's heart.
"That's right. Willpower. My obsession with taking revenge on Beerus."
Broly raised his head, locking his eyes onto Champa.
"So before I find him, I don't mind collecting a little interest from his brother first."
Boom!
Before the words had even faded, an utterly terrifying aura erupted from Broly's body.
Green flames shot into the sky, then rapidly turned purple.
His hair grew wildly until it hung down to his waist, becoming a deep shade of violet.
His brow ridges rose sharply, and his eyes held nothing but pure desire for battle.
Full-Power Ultra Ego!
Champa nearly lost his soul from fright.
What had he done to deserve Broly using such a terrifying transformation against him?!
"Wait! I… I sur…"
He was about to surrender.
Then he suddenly remembered that Zeno was sitting in the audience.
Lord Zeno was watching.
He could not surrender.
At the very least, he had to make a token resistance.
At that moment, Champa's heart was filled with endless grievance.
He had only wanted to go to Earth and eat something good!
Why had things turned out like this?
He regretted his gluttony.
He regretted even more that he had come here to join the fun for no reason.
But…
As a being at the peak of the universe, as a God of Destruction, how could he admit that he was wrong?
I'm not wrong!
The reason definitely isn't me!
Right!
Blame Levos!
It was all that honest-looking guy's fault for tricking him into joining such a terrifying tournament!
Wasn't this bullying an honest god?
And besides, debts had owners and grudges had targets. The one who injured Broly was Beerus. What did that have to do with Champa?
Champa felt unbearably wronged.
Broly had already rushed before him, his murderous intent making Champa's entire body go cold.
Champa could only grit his teeth, draw out all his power, and assume a defensive stance.
Bang!
Both of Champa's arms snapped, and he vomited blood as he was sent flying backward.
Broly gave him no chance to breathe, closing in and hammering him with an endless chain of punches.
As expected, the brutal fight became a one-sided beating.
…
On the other side, Android 18 and Bulma's battle had also begun.
"Bulma, you'd better be careful."
"You too."
Neither wasted words. They burst out with power instantly.
Mystic Form!
Two powerful auras collided, and both figures vanished from their original spots at the same time.
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
In midair, only a series of dense impacts and flashing sparks remained.
Their fighting styles were extremely similar, a perfect fusion of power and technique.
"Super Saiyan 3!"
Bulma shouted, and her golden hair suddenly grew longer as her aura climbed again.
Android 18 refused to fall behind and transformed into Super Saiyan 3 as well.
"18, this Super Saiyan 3 form makes our eyebrows disappear. It doesn't feel that pretty."
"True…"
Instead of continuing immediately, the two examined each other's appearances.
In the end, they reached the same conclusion. Super Saiyan 3 did not suit them.
"Then, Super Saiyan God!"
Bulma's aura shifted again, a crimson divine flame wrapping around her entire body.
"Then I'll do it too!"
Android 18 also completed the Super Saiyan God transformation.
Now both with red hair, they observed each other again.
"Oh my, 18, you look younger."
"So do you…"
After confirming they were satisfied with their appearances, the two finally resumed fighting.
Fists and kicks collided. Energy blasts clashed. The entire arena trembled violently beneath their attacks.
Red streaks of light darted through the arena at extreme speed. Every collision released destructive energy.
A battle this evenly matched was quite entertaining to watch.
Most importantly, both fighters were powerful beauties.
In the audience, Emperor Vegeta watched the scene with great interest.
"Pure Saiyan blood… What perfect tools for battle."
His gaze swept over Android 18 and Bulma, then shifted toward Puar, Kale, Android 21, and the others.
"These women will all become part of my Saiyan Empire. Except…"
His gaze landed on Vegetina's arena.
His eyes held undisguised disgust and… disdain.
Vegetina was standing with her arms folded, proudly watching Cabba across from her.
"A Saiyan from Universe 6? Hmph. Show me what you can do."
"Miss Vegetina, please guide me," Cabba replied politely.
"Enough nonsense. Come!"
Vegetina transformed straight into Super Saiyan 3 and charged forward.
Cabba merely shifted slightly to the side and avoided her attack.
"Miss Vegetina, please use your full strength."
After watching so many brilliant fights, Cabba also wanted a thrilling battle.
A blue aura erupted from his body.
Super Saiyan Blue!
Vegetina froze.
Seeing Cabba transform instantly into a form she had not even mastered, the arrogance on her face stiffened into disbelief.
"You already mastered the power of… a god?"
Her confidence suffered a heavy blow.
Cabba looked confused.
"Miss Vegetina, didn't we all receive Mr. Levos's energy infusion? Can you still not transform into this form?"
"Is that how it works?"
Vegetina froze.
Damn it!
She called herself a genius, yet she had fallen behind someone else?
Was this transformation actually easy to master?
"In theory, you already meet the conditions to become a Super Saiyan God."
"Then how do I do it?" Vegetina pressed.
"First, you need a calm heart. You can't be impatient," Cabba explained patiently.
"Then, carefully feel the divine power inside your body. Don't rush it. Slowly guide it."
"Finally, gather that power in your back and try to draw it out…"
He shared every trick he knew without holding anything back.
Vegetina listened while subconsciously following his method.
After two or three attempts…
Buzz.
A crimson aura rose from her body.
Her hair turned red, and her figure became more slender.
An unfamiliar power flowed within her.
It was this power that allowed her to break through from mortal to divine.
She had succeeded.
Super Saiyan God!
"I… I did it. This young lady really is a genius!"
Vegetina felt the new power surging through her body and regained her confidence.
She glanced at Cabba and snorted.
"Even if you told me how to transform, I still won't acknowledge you as my master!"
"You misunderstand, Miss Vegetina. I never wanted to be your master. Actually, I've always wanted to find a master to guide my own training…"
Vegetina ignored his explanation entirely.
"Only the winner of this match is worthy of being a master!"
With that, she charged at him.
Their battle began once more.
…
In Champa's arena, he had already been beaten black and blue, looking utterly miserable.
But if one asked whether he had suffered any fatal injury, the answer was no.
It looked more like Broly had deliberately held back, treating him like a toy to torment at will.
"Too weak."
Broly kicked him away. Champa slammed into the barrier, then bounced back.
Champa's eyes were so swollen he could barely open them, and most of the bones in his body were broken.
In the spectator stands, many people could hardly bear to keep watching.
"Is there any point in continuing this fight?"
"The gap is too great. Why doesn't he surrender?"
Vados's expression remained calm.
"Perhaps he wants to bear part of Lord Beerus's responsibility."
"Of course, Lord Champa does need a lesson."
"Losing weight is secondary."
"What matters is that he understands a God of Destruction cannot always be so willful."
"The reason Universe 7 gave birth to an existence like Broly ultimately comes back to Lord Beerus's arrogance and unreasonable conduct."
No one expected Vados to say something like that.
For the Gods of Destruction, this could already be considered quite a serious warning.
Everyone's expressions varied, and they fell silent.
In the arena, Android 18 and Bulma's battle was also reaching its end.
Both had ultimately transformed into Super Saiyan Blue.
After fighting to this point, both sides had burned through a great deal of stamina.
For the final move, both of them used an energy beam clash to decide victory.
As Bulma exhausted her strength first, Android 18 controlled her energy beam and shifted its trajectory.
Rumble!
The energy wave struck the barrier behind Bulma and was completely absorbed.
Bulma knelt on the ground, panting lightly.
"This time, I lost…"
Android 18 also sat down cross-legged to regulate her breathing.
She had won by a narrow margin.
Vegetina's battle also ended.
Although she successfully transformed into Super Saiyan God, her use of divine power was still very crude.
She also failed to break through into Super Saiyan Blue.
Facing Cabba, who had already mastered that form, she ultimately lost due to the gap in strength.
"I lost…"
Vegetina was unwilling, but she still had no choice but to accept reality.
"However, next time, I will definitely beat you! After all, I am a genius among Saiyans!"
She folded her arms, and fighting spirit reignited on her face.
"You're welcome to spar with me anytime," Cabba replied with a smile. "If you want to avoid some detours, you can also come to me for advice whenever you like, Miss Vegetina."
"Hmph, who wants advice from you?"
"I, Vegetina, reached this level through my own hard work!"
…
Levos's opponent was Lagss, the survivor of the Glass Tribe.
"Mr. Levos, please guide me."
Lagss had a cold personality, but she was very polite.
She took Levos extremely seriously and used her full strength from the start.
With a wave of both hands…
Buzz.
The entire arena was instantly covered in countless glittering layers of glass.
The ground, the walls, and the sky all became mirror surfaces.
Countless images of Levos reflected across those mirrors.
"This is my domain. Here, I am the ruler."
Lagss's voice echoed from all directions, sometimes near and sometimes far, making it impossible to determine her true location.
The next instant…
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Countless sharp glass fragments shot toward Levos from every direction, sealing off all of his escape routes.
Levos stood where he was, unmoving.
Just as the fragments were about to pierce his body, an invisible wall of ki spread outward with him as the center.
Clink, clink, clink!
Every glass shard shattered the moment it touched the wall.
"Interesting."
Levos raised a hand and lightly flicked a huge mirror in front of him.
The entire mirror shattered with a crash.
Lagss's figure appeared behind the broken mirror, a hint of surprise on her face.
She had not expected Levos to locate her real body so quickly.
"Your tactic is to use the refraction of light to hide yourself while controlling the glass to attack."
"The idea is good, but it doesn't work on me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Levos vanished.
Alarm bells rang in Lagss's heart. She immediately controlled the surrounding glass to form a thick shield before her.
But it was too late.
A palm gently pressed against the back of her neck.
Lagss's body stiffened.
If he wished, he could make her lose the ability to move in an instant.
The gap was simply too great.
Lagss could not even form the thought of resisting.
All the glass in the arena turned into motes of light and disappeared into the air, signaling her surrender.
This match held no suspense. The moment it ended, Levos instantly returned to the spectator stands.
…
As one battle after another concluded, everyone's attention gathered on the arenas where fights had not yet ended.
In the battle between Frieza and Kakarot, both sides had gone all out from the very beginning.
Without question, this was the match drawing the most attention.
