Opening her eyes, Kale finally regained consciousness.

"Where am I?" She wanted to know, while noticing that she was surrounded by several rocks, allowing her and the other people who were there to be concealed.

"Kale-san!" Cabbe rejoices. "Are you OK?"

"Um ... yes! What happened?"

"You do not remember? You turned into a super saiyan! Well, I believe."

" Super Saiyan? Me ? And Sis'? Where is she ? "

A moan was heard.

Holding his arm, Caulifla winced in pain. Still enraged since her fight against Universe 12, she couldn't stand the thought of being humiliated like this. Those opponents had been just a handful of kids, and yet, without Kale's intervention, she would have been eliminated.

" How ? " She roared. " How could I have lost against them? "

" You have shown yourself much too reckless. "

Turning around, the trio caught sight of Hit, behind them, staring at Caulifla.

" Hit ? "

" Even if they are just kids, your opponents were numerical superiority! Basically you wanted to fight the whole team, right? Are you stupid ? "

" Sorry ? " Caulifla growled.

" If these children are here, it's because they are the best warriors in their world. " Hit reminded him. " So it doesn't matter if they are kids, old people or even babies, if they are here it is because they are powerful! Stop underestimating your opponents or you will be the next to be eliminated. "

" Grrr! I don't need your advice. "

" I see it. " Ironically Hit, looking at Caulifla's shoulder.

Suddenly disappearing, he appeared behind Caulifla. Then, before anyone could react, he grabbed her arm. Screaming in pain, the saiyan felt Hit squeeze her arm before twisting it, causing a loud crackle.

" Sis'! " Kale scared.

Finally, letting Caulifla fall to her knees, Hit saw her grit her teeth, noticing that she could move her arm again. Hit had just put his shoulder back in place.

" That ? "

" To win, we have to team up. " Hit asserted, putting his hands back in his pockets. " But if you keep doing anything and provoking everyone, just out of pride, then I'll stop helping you! Did you understand me correctly ? "

Looking at him angrily, Caulifla wanted to insult him. However, seeing the man giving her a cold look, she finally looked down, before nodding her head slightly.

" Perfect ! In that case, get ready. "

" What ? Why ? " Cabba asked him.

Turning his face in one direction, Hit asserted.

" The tournament will soon know a turning point. "


Still staring, Goku, Saitama, and Jiren stood still. Finally, smiling, Goku asserted.

" I saw your power! I must admit that I am truly amazed to see warriors as strong as you. "

" You too, it seems that you are strong. " Saitama remarked. " This is one of the only reasons I participate in this tournament! I want to face someone as powerful as me. "

For his part, Jiren remained silent. Closing his eyes, he heard Belmod's telepathic words in his head.

" Jiren, can you hear me ? "

" Yes, perfectly ! "

" The fact that you fight Midora was not planned, but it does not matter! From now on, I want you to crush Saitama from Universe 4. "

" And for Son Goku? "

" You will take care of him afterwards! Saitama seems to be the most powerful fighter after you! Let's not take unnecessary risks! If he fights you and the rest of his team arrives to help him, he just might get into trouble for you! Eliminate it right away. "

" It's understood ! Anyway, I was planning to eliminate them both! Then, I'll take care of Midoriya. "

" Midoriya? The kid from universe 12? it poses no threat! Don't waste your energy fighting it. "

" He challenged me! I never ignore people who challenge me. "

" Okay, in that case you can fight him at the end of the tournament, when we are sure that all danger is over. "

" It's heard. "

Opening his eyes, Jiren immediately looked at Saitama. Then, he walked towards him, letting his aura develop around him, before dissipating his energy into the atmosphere. Immediately, all the warriors could feel his power.


" You felt ? " Wanted to know C-17.

" Yes ! " Assured C-18. " A very powerful ki. "


" It's Goku. " Seryu asserted, while still being able to see the warrior, from the top of a rock.

Beside her, Koro suddenly began to squeal. Taking a few steps back, he only showed fear in his eyes as he stared at Jiren.

" Koro ? "

" Very interesting. "

Not even having felt her presence, Seryu saw Esdeath sitting right next to her, looking at the three warriors with a broad smile.

" Esdeath-san? "

" I will finally find out who is the most powerful warrior on this terrain! As soon as I know who will be the winner, I'll go see him to fight him. "

" Do you want to fight Goku alone ? "

" Goku ? " Esdeath wondered. " I don't care about this amateur. "

Just looking at Jiren and Saitama, Esdeath asserted.

" These two are much more powerful than him. "


" Jiren ! " Toppo muttered, sensing his energy.


Seeing Jiren advancing towards Saitama, Goku was the first to get into a fighting stance, while asserting.

" You have finally decided to fight! Let's go. "

Still, he didn't even have time to take a step as he felt Jiren's energy hit him in the form of gusts of wind, causing him to back away.

" What … ? "

Having pushed him aside, Jiren then propelled himself towards Saitama. Seeming to have teleported, he appeared right in front of the bald man, with his arms crossed.

" He ? " Saitama wondered.

A phenomenal punch hit him in the abdomen. Hitting him hard and swiftly, Jiren had acted so fast that even Kitela hadn't seen his punch. Yet, having managed to fold his arms, Saitama was able to protect his abdomen.

However, his feet immediately left the ground and he felt himself fly backwards and crashed into several boulders which struggled to slow his course. And barely had he time to put his feet on the ground, he saw Jiren appear right in front of him to give him a second punch.

" KAMEHAMEHAAAAAA ! "

Barely turning his face, Jiren made no effort to dodge Goku's breaking wave. Using his aura, Jiren created an invisible shield that deflected the attack without doing him any damage.

" Useless. " He said.

" NORMAL PUNCH ! "

Turning around, Jiren let Saitama punch him in the face. Much to the hero's surprise, Jiren didn't even blink when he was hit.

" What ? "

A kick then hit Jiren's skull, while Goku was in super saiyan. Again, Jiren didn't move a millimeter. Roaring then, Jiren pushed them back with the help of his aura.

Flying through the air, Goku managed to stop, before transforming into SS2. Running towards Jiren again, he saw the latter disappear.

" Where is he ? " He wondered.

Seeing Saitama in front of him, Goku finally focused on him.

" SAITAMA. "

Getting to his feet, the hero saw Goku in front of him, starting to bombard him with punches. At first surprised, Saitama waved his arms in all directions and managed to stop each of Goku's attacks without the slightest difficulty. Seeming to guess his every attack, he blocked them with mind-blowing speed.

Seeing this, Goku flew into the air, before throwing various ki-blasts. Seeing energetic spheres moving towards him, Saitama began to run to escape the attack. Sprinting like this, he quickly increased his speed and was so quick that Goku was unable to touch him.

Changing his tactic, he put two fingers on his forehead and teleported right in front of Saitama. Stopping, the bald man saw the saiyan place his hands back.

" HAAAAAAAA ! " He cried, sending out another breaking wave.

Getting into position, Saitama had his fist closed and struck the attack.

" SERIOUS PUNCH ! "

In an instant, the breaking wave split in two, as the impact of the punch raced straight towards Goku. Seeing this, Goku leapt into the air again. But barely had he time to dodge Saitama's attack, he felt Jiren's presence behind him.

Turning around, he felt the edge of Jiren's hand hit him in the back of his neck, sending him crashing to the ground. After that, Jiren let himself down right in front of Saitama, who was already preparing to attack him.

" SERIOUS PUNCH ! "

Seeing Saitama's fist moving towards his face, Jiren raised his arm and stopped him in time. But no sooner had he grabbed the hero's fist than a shock wave was seen around the two warriors. Then, Jiren closed his own fist and sent it straight into Saitama's stomach.

The bald man's eyes snapped open as he felt his opponent's fist strike his stomach with power. Spitting out saliva, he then felt Jiren kick him straight to the center post. Bumping into him, Saitama moaned in pain, before falling on all fours. Then he placed his hand on her stomach.

He was in pain. Jiren had almost made him throw up his breakfast. Truth be told, it had been a long time since Saitama had felt so much pain. He wasn't used to it at all. However, for a strange response, he stood up, all the while starting to smile.

Jiren was powerful. So powerful that Saitama might finally be able to fight seriously. Suddenly he walked over to Jiren, before attacking him as fast as he could.

" CONSECUTIVE NORMAL PUNCH ! "

This time, it was Jiren who moved his arms in all directions to stop each of his punches. Shockwaves could be seen again, with each impact, showing the power of Saitama's fierce attacks.

Then, seeing him slow down, Jiren lifted his leg and tried to punch him in the face. Seeming to read his mind, Saitama parted his head to dodge his kick, before finding an opening in Jiren's defense.

" SERIOUS PUNCH ! "

This time, it was Jiren's stomach that felt a powerful punch, forcing Jiren to take a few steps back.

" You…? " He wondered, having felt pain.

Suddenly he ducked down as Goku's body flew above him, In his SS3 form Goku had attempted to hit him. However, seeing him avoiding her, Goku aimed his foot at Saitama and managed to hit him in the face. Throwing the hero back, Goku then turned to Jiren and transformed into a super saiyan god. Trying to punch, Goku saw Jiren grab hold of his hand without the slightest difficulty.

" You are weaker than Saitama ! " Jiren asserted.

" SERIOUS PUNCH ! "

Feeling Saitama's aura, the two warriors parted in time and saw Saitama's fist hit the ground violently. Then looking at Goku, he wiped his bleeding nose with his thumb. Then he walked over to him.

" CONSECUTIVE NORMAL PUNCH ! "

" AHHHHHHH ! " Goku yelled, punching him several times while trying to match his speed.

At first of equal force, the two warriors created gusts of wind that made the whole area tremble. Still, after a few seconds, Goku felt his body hit several times. Then, Saitama brought both arms back, before directing his fists towards Goku's abdomen, which he punched.

" DOUBLE IMPACT ! "

With his mouth wide open, Goku couldn't utter a word as his body was thrown back. Seeing it fly before crashing to the ground, Saitama stood still. Then he whirled around in an instant, to block a punch from Jiren. Seeing him stop him, Jiren increased his power enough for Saitama's feet to start sliding back.

" You can never defeat me. " Jiren asserted.

Wanting to prove him wrong, Saitama brought his leg to his face.

" SERIOUS KICK! "

Positioning his arm in front of his face, Jiren shielded himself from the blow.

'' So you can also use your feet? "

"I had never needed it before." Saitama told him.

Getting ready to hit him again, Saitama was surprised to see Goku teleport between them, while still in his normal form. Despite the damage caused by Saitama's latest attack, Goku had returned to fight without hesitation.

"What…?"

In an instant, Goku switched to his SSB form. Releasing considerable energy, Goku directed his hands towards the two warriors and let out a cry. Immediately, Saitama and Jiren felt a shock wave hit their entire bodies. But as Saitama was thrown several yards, Jiren only took a single step back before keeping his balance. Staring at Goku, Jiren put on the same serious look he had when fighting Saitama. Goku had finally caught his attention.

"Son Goku ... this time, I will also attack you while remaining serious."

Immediately, Goku punched him that made him fly through the air. Quickly pulling himself together, Jiren then saw him fly towards him and attempt to punch him again. Dodging him, Jiren gave him a knee strike in his diaphragm, taking his breath away. However, trying to forget the pain, Goku began to punch him again. Flying back Jiren dodged several of his punches, and blocked the rest of the attacks with his hands. Remaining calm, he watched as Goku attacked with intensity, hoping to hit him. Finally, Jiren attacked in turn and his first punch threw Goku back. Doing several somersaults in the air, Goku didn't even have time to react as Jiren found himself on top of him and kicked him. ejected to the ground. .

Seeing Goku in a crater, Jiren fell straight down to crush him under his foot. However, being without counting the intervention of Saitama who had found himself in front of him. Barely having time to see him fly in front of him, Jiren felt Saitama's fist hit him in the face, causing him to fall to the ground in turn.

" That…? " Kitela wondered, seeing Saitama floating in the air. " Since when did this idiot know how to fly ? "

" He stayed ten days on our planet. " Cognac reminded him. " Since he was bored, I told him that learning to fly could be fun! He was happy since he told me that it might be more convenient to go to the supermarket as well. "

" Grrr, this guy annoys me! How is a lazy person like him so strong ? "

Remaining floating in the air, Saitama saw the crater where Goku was located explode. Then the saiyan stepped out as a red aura surrounded him.

" KAIOKEN 2X ! "

Teleporting, Goku found himself behind Saitama and punched him in the back of the head with a kick. Losing altitude, Saitama moaned in pain, before turning and flying towards Goku.

" SERIOUS PUNCH ! "

However, as his fist hit Goku, it felt like he was hitting a ghost. Then he saw Goku's body disappear. He had just struck an afterimage.

" What…? "

Goku's fist hit his abdomen. Flying backwards, it crashed into a rock. Flying towards him, Goku steered both feet towards the boulder and crashed into Saitama before he could defend himself. The boulder exploded from the impact, and Saitama flew back again. Still, as Goku appeared behind him to kick him, Saitama managed to grab his leg before hitting Goku's abdomen.

Then he threw it forcefully against the ground. Feeling his back crash into the surface of the pitch, Goku then saw Saitama fall towards him, while quickly moving his fists.

" CONSECUTIVE SERIOUS PUNCH ! "

Attacking at full speed, Saitama hit the pitch hard, as well as Goku's body. Cracks appeared very quickly under the saiyan as his body sank into the ground. With every punch he felt his entire skeleton was being pulverized.

Then, ceasing his attack, Saitama placed both arms behind him, before asserting.

" I will eliminate you! DOUBLE IMPACT PUNCH ! "

However, the hole where Goku was located began to glow a reddish color. Exploding the ground, Goku stepped out, as the red aura around him increased dramatically.

" KAIOKEN 20X ! "

And before Saitama could rule, Goku vanished before his foot struck the hero's face. Letting out a real howl of pain, feeling his nose break, Saitama then felt Goku grab his arm before hitting him several times in the abdomen. Then, he placed his hand on her stomach and created a ki-blast, which exploded.

Feeling to be rushing back, Saitama fell to the ground and rolled until he found himself near the void.

" This guy … " He whispered, getting up. " He is strong. "

" KAMEHAME… "

Looking up, Saitama was dazzled by a huge source of blue light, created by Goku.

" HAAAAAAAAA ! "

Seeing the attack rush at him, Saitama put both hands in front of him and blocked the attack. Feeling gusts of wind sweep over his face, Saitama gritted his teeth, as his hands began to burn him. Goku's attack was powerful. So powerful that Saitama felt her feet slip back. Another meter, and he fell into the void. He was in danger.

Seeing this, Kitela opened her mouth wide, but said nothing as her heart seemed to be exploding.

" Am I dreaming ? " Sonic cried. " Saitama is losing ? "

Remaining silent, Garou finally heard a strange sound coming out of Saitama's mouth. He was laughing.

Despite feeling Goku's attack start to destroy his arms, Saitama laughed. This fight was incredible. Even using much of his energy, Goku was putting him in danger. And he loved it. This time, he was sure he could fight with all his might.

" SERIOUS PUNCH ! MAX POWER! "

Saitama's punch hit Goku's attack and deflected it so as to send him far into the void world. As soon as his attack wears off, Goku ends up causing the red aura around him to disappear.

Breathing with difficulty, he showed he was starting to tire. On the contrary, Saitama seemed to be in great shape. He was having fun.

" Hey ! "

Not needing to turn around, Saitama felt Jiren behind him.

" Show me your power. "

Showing a simple smile, Saitama disappeared, as did Jiren. Looking up, Goku saw them fight each other, giving each other multitudes of punches. The intensity of the combat was so intense that all the warriors watched them fight the best they could. They were so fast that some had great difficulty seeing them.

The two warriors seemed to be invincible. They punched and blocked his opponent's, while maintaining a serious demeanor. But as they seemed to be tied, Jiren eventually felt Saitama's fist hit him in the face and knock him down not far from Goku.

" Tsss. " Jiren growled, seeing Saitama land not far from them.

" HAHAHAHA. " Giggles Saitama. " Yeah, I'm finally starting to have a little fun. "

Creating many ki-blasts, Jiren bombarded Saitama. Just watching each of the attacks, Saitama dodged them one by one, while running towards Jiren.

" CONSECUTIVE NORMAL PUNCH. "

Seeing him in front of him, Jiren vanished from sight. Then, appearing behind Saitma, he belted him around and his arms began to crush his rib cage. Feeling his bones cracking, Saitama struggled in vain for a few seconds. Then, gesturing his leg, he punched Jiren's knee forcefully with the back of his foot. Moaning in pain, Jiren released the pressure and Saitama took the opportunity to give him a kick.

Letting go, Jiren saw Saitama turn to face him, before attacking him with multiple punches.

" CONSECUTIVE SERIOUS PUNCH ! "

With no time to defend himself, Jiren was punched numerous times, and his feet moved back several meters. Jiren was cornered under Saitama's attacks.

" No, but am I dreaming ? " Cried Belmod. " Jiren is losing? "

" Go ahead, Saitama. " Cried Quitela. " Come on, uppercut! Punch ! Uppercut! Punch ! "


" Hahaha! " Giggles Saitama. " What am I having fun. "

'' Stop making fun of me. " Jiren roared, enveloping himself in a red aura.

Then, releasing much of his energy, he created a supersonic vibration all around him, which pulverized the terrain and rocks. Hit by the attack, Saitama felt himself pull back.

Jiren's power was colossal. She alone was enough to push Saitama back. Yet the warrior knew he could resist it. Despite stepping back, he closed his fist before concentrating his power. Then he struck in front of him with such great power that he in turn created a shock wave that swept across the pitch before hitting Jiren's chest.

So even standing several feet away from him, Jiren felt Saitama's punches hit him.

Holding his stomach, he stared at Saitama angrily. At first glance, Saitama seemed like an ordinary Earthman, just having fun playing the hero. Yet his power was unimaginable. And Jiren didn't even understand how he had acquired it.

Looking at his fist, Saitama found his smile again.

" Usually, I get bored when I show my power to my opponents! But, with you, I feel proud to fight you! Yes, defeating you has become my next goal, Jiren. "

" I don't rejoice too quickly, kid. " Cried Jiren. " A punch doesn't mean anything. "

Concentrating then, Jiren unleashed more power. His power had become so impressive that Goku took a step back without realizing it. He realized then that Jiren was far from showing his true power.

Seeing the same thing, Saitama regained his seriousness. Then, in an instant, he and Jiren pounced on each other, before pounding their fists. The shock wave produced attracted the attention of the gods.

Feeling a bead of sweat run down her face, Sidra wondered.

" Does our universe really have a chance to defeat such monsters? "

"Yes, of course. " Cried Ro. " We have Esdeath! And don't forget that our mightiest warrior still hasn't shown up. "

" I'm afraid it won't be of much use. "


" Unbelievable. " Gowasu cried, while filming the fight with his camera. " It's really unbelievable. "

" How can you be so playful ? " Rumsshi got angry. " Neither of these two guys belong to our team. "

" If we have to disappear, I want to be sure to film everything. "

" As if we were going to disappear! Kusu, explain to him that we can always win. "

" Unfortunately, I'm afraid our chances have dropped considerably, Rumsshi-sama. " Confessed the angel. " However, if one of these two competitors loses and Goku manages to win against the winner, then it will be easier for our team to defeat him in turn. "

" This is already the strategy of several universes. " Gowasu asserted, while looking at Acacia, Esdeath and Hit. " No matter who wins, other opponents will come to him afterwards. "

" In this case, we must also attack. " Exclaimed Rumsshi.

" This is the worst strategy. " Gajeel growled.

" He ? "

" If several opponents arrive at the same time, it will turn into a general fight. " Affirmed Jura. " Therefore, if our universe is still hiding a bit, we will let the others get exhausted and eliminate themselves! And then we can attack them. "


Punching each other hard, Saitama and Jiren exchanged punches of unimaginable power and neither of them refused to back down in the face of their opponent. And anyone would have been afraid of getting stuck in this confrontation. However, seeing them fight, Goku concentrated on making the KAIOKEN appear around him.

" It's a battle royale! Any warrior must jump into battle and fight hard. "

Flying like this, he found himself in front of Saitama and began to attack him. Finding himself having to block two opponents, Saitama felt himself recoil. Still, his smile returned to his face, as he gripped Goku's arm before punching him in the face.

" Yes that's it ! Keep going. "

Taking advantage of his distraction, Jiren grabbed his skull before slamming it hard against a rock. Beginning to bleed, Saitama found himself on the ground. But before Jiren could attack him again, Saitama scrambled to his feet and gave him a skull hit in the face.

" That will not be enough. "

But already, Goku found himself in front of him and gave him several punches. Coming back in front of Saitama, Jiren mimicked him and the two forced Saitama to step back, while blocking their punches.

" HAHAHAHA! Yes, come on! Come ! "

Watching the fight, Beerus swallowed several times, while seeing Saitama push Goku and Jiren each in turn, while chuckling.

" Damn it, but what planet is this guy from? How is he so strong? Why can't Goku beat him? "

" Jiren, this is not the time to laugh. " Cried Belmod, tearing his hair. " Hurry and beat that bald guy, before I go bald. "

This time, attacking with more intensity, Jiren dodged a punch from Saitama and punched him in the abdomen so hard that the bald man spat blood. Taking advantage, Goku concentrated his power and created a cloud of ki-blasts that hit Saitama. Exploding the area, Goku's attacks caused Saitama's body to disappear behind the smoke, allowing Jiren and Goku to move away before landing on two different rocks.

Staring at the location of the explosion, the duo then saw Saitama appear through the smoke. His clothes and cape were torn. He had numerous wounds and bruises on his face and was bleeding from his mouth. And he was in pain.

Still, nothing seemed to take away the smile that was on his face.

" That's exactly what I wanted! A fight where I could fight without holding back my blows! Fighting with all your might is awesome! Its good ! It's too good ! We go on ! I want to fight again and again. "

Concentrating then, he in turn released enough energy to shake the ground. Sensing it, Macarita cried out.

" Unbelievable ! Saitama-san has just unleashed all his power! His strength is able to rival that of Jiren-san. "

" What? " Khai horrified.

" JIREN. " Belmod shouted. " Eliminate this guy right now. "

Immediately, Jiren flew through the air. Then, reaching a high altitude, he eventually covered himself with his red aura and flew at full speed towards Saitama. Increasing its speed, it looked like a real meteorite threatening to destroy the entire terrain by hitting the ground. Then clenching his fist, he made his aura disappear around his body, to transmit it to his fist. Thus, the latter contained all of his energy. If he hit Saitama with it, he was going to eliminate him.

Feeling his energy, Saitama exclaimed with joy.

" Come, come, come! Count on me ! This time, I'll show you my best attack. "

His fist then lit up as Saitama flew off to walk towards Jiren.

" SPECIAL PUNCH! THUNDER HERO KING PUNCH ! "

Then everything happened very quickly. While the two opponents were only a few inches apart, Saitama managed to dodge Jiren's fist in extremis. Then, the latter had seen with dread Saitama's fist moving towards him, before hitting his cheek.

Goku couldn't even see Jiren's body being thrown back. Traversing the entire terrain, Jiren transformed into a comet that headed for the void.

" JIREN ! "

Managing to open his eyes, Jiren put his feet on the ground to stop his run. But even so, it doesn't slow down. Crouching down, he plunged his hands into the ground and his fingers pulverized the ground as he searched for a firm grip.

Finally, he felt his feet come back above the void and he began to fall. The noise Belmod made when he saw him fall was strange. It sounded like the cry of a girl who was coughing. Either way, he froze as Jiren left the pitch.

" Jiren… is defeated ? "
