Dodging a punch from Toriko, Bang then folded his arm in front of his face to shield himself from a second blow. The force of the impact made Bang's arm tremble, showing Toriko's power.

Nonetheless, counterattacking, Bang lifted his foot and hit him on the head. Taking a step back, Toriko had her face turned to the side. Nevertheless, just smiling, he declared.

" You are good for an old man. "

" And you, you have a lot of experience, for a young man. " Bang said.

Cracking his neck, while spinning his arms, he finally noticed.

" Unless it was me who became weaker! It must be said that I am no longer very young! After this tournament, maybe I should consider retiring and ending my hero career. "

" Hum ? Universe 4 is only made up of heroes ? "

" No ! That half! The rest are criminals recruited to help us! Disappointed ? "

" Oh ? I can't say anything ! Our team also includes some not very recommendable guys! But I'm sure each of them can change if we give them a second chance. "

Looking at him with a little surprise, Bang cried out.

" I'm surprised at your way of thinking, kid! Usually, a lot of people, towards their enemy, decide to hold a lot of grudges! If I may, what do you want to do with the dragons… ? "

" Nothing at all. " Toriko asserted.

" What ? "

" I am not participating in this tournament to have wishes. "

Rummaging around his collar, he then showed a necklace with a knife hanging on it. Komatsu's knife.

" You see this knife? It represents the hope of Komatsu, as well as all the inhabitants of Universe 2! It is for them that I am fighting! I want to win this tournament and have for only wish the right to be able to continue my life as it is! I want to allow the inhabitants of my universe to continue to live in peace. "

" Even if that means having to destroy eight universes ? "

" I have no desire to kill you. " Toriko asserted. " Before one of the teams is eliminated, I really hope that a solution arrives to prevent this massacre. "

" Unfortunately, I fear that this is not possible! We will be forced to fight and pray that our team is the winner. "

" I would have much preferred that the losing teams organize a banquet in honor of the winners with their best gastronomic specialties. " Toriko said, with a small smile. " Damn it, why is it only now that someone tells me that there are other universes? There must be millions of unknown ingredients that are going to be destroyed in less than an hour! Such a waste ! "

Hearing it, Bang let out a weary sigh. Then, getting back into position, he declared.

" It's a good thing that I am fighting you. "

" Hum ? "

" You are the last of your team! So the person who will make you leave the arena is bound to be at the origin of the destruction of your universe! Who do you think could bear this burden? The heroes of my universe? The kids of universe 12? wizards of universe 10 ? "

Shaking his head somewhat, he declared.

" Even the most horrible of demons could feel remorse at the idea of having to destroy all the inhabitants of a universe! It is out of the question that I bequeath this horrible job to one of my companions! They can never forgive themselves for such an act! As dean, it is my duty to take on this responsibility. "

" Don't worry about that. " Toriko retorted. " Because I do not intend to lose against you or against anyone in this field. "

" The chances of Universe 2 winning are less than one percent. "

" Even if my chances of winning were zero percent, I would keep fighting! PUNCH FORK ! "

" WATER STREAM ROCK SMASHING FIST ! "

The two punches hit both men in the face. Toriko's fist pulverized Bang's cheek, while his fist crushed Toriko's nose. Both stepping back, the two men finally put a hand on their face, before finally taking a step forward.

" FLYING FORK ! "

Making a quick movement with his arm, Toriko created a sharp gust of wind that moved towards Bang. Jumping back, the old man managed to dodge Toriko's attack, who sliced a block of stone. Seeing Bang run all around him, Toriko made various movements with his arms and feet.

" CANNON FORK and LEG FORK ! "

Many invisible projectiles were ejected towards Bang, who continued to avoid them one by one. With his eyes closed, he could feel Toriko's ki and ripple his body so as to avoid each attack. Then, leaning on the ground, he jumped in an instant towards Toriko and found himself in front of his chest.

" What … ? "

" INSTANTANEOUS EFFECT ! "

Bang's fist hit Toriko's stomach. Groaning in pain, the poor man felt as if he felt Bang's fist destroy his orgagnes. Still, gritting his teeth and abs, Toriko ends up raising his arm and clenching his fist before hitting Bang on the head.

" 50 HIT NAIL PUNCH ! "

Toriko hit Bang on the head hard enough to force him to fall to the ground. Feeling like he had been hit several dozen times, Bang felt wounds open in his skull.

" LEG NAIL KICK ! "

Kicking Bang in the side, Toriko seemed to stab him with a huge sword. The force of the blow lifted the old man and made him fly through the air. Passing nevertheless near a high cliff, Bang reached out and managed to grab hold of the high rock, to stop his flight.

Face bleeding, the old man took a few breaths to catch his breath. Not wanting to let him breathe, Toriko attacked him again.

" DOUBLE LEG BOOMERANG ! "

Seeing him create two more sharp gusts of wind, Bang jumped over the cliff to avoid them. Unfortunately, he didn't see them turn around and come back to him, before hitting him on the back. Screaming in pain, Bang felt himself fall to the floor, where Toriko waited for him, his arm back.

" 70 HIT NAIL GUN ! "

Feeling the powerful attack coming to his face, Bang opened his eyes at the last minute. Tilting his head to the side, Bang felt Toriko's fist brush against his face, destroying part of his mustache and his right ear. Grimacing, the old hero nevertheless managed to grab Toriko's arm, before aiming at his abdomen.

" FANG INTERPOLATION ! "

" FORK SHIELD ! "

Moving her arm in time, Toriko created a shield to protect herself from Bang's attack. Striking him, Bang managed to destroy him and crashed into Toriko's stomach. Thanks to his protection, Toriko had managed to reduce the impact force of the blow of weight, which threw him back. Dealing with the pain, he did a few back flips before landing on his feet.

Putting a hand on his stomach, he suddenly noticed that he was only two meters from the void. Bang had managed to put him with his back to the wall.

" It's over for you. " The old man said, landing next to him. " Sorry, kid, but this is the end of your universe. "

" It's not over. " Toriko retorted. " JET FORK ! "

Joining her two arms together, to create a huge fork, Toriko ran to Bang. Unfortunately, moving at full speed, the old man ducked down and managed to dodge the attack. Then, finding himself in front of Toriko's chest, Bang put his two fists at the level of his heart.

" Usually, I do this attack with my brother but, using my two fists, it will do ! WHIRLWIND WATER STREAM: ROARING AURA SKY RIPPING FIST ! "

Toriko froze as he felt a phenomenal shock wave wash through his body. In an instant, his eyes rolled back, as he passed out, as his body leaned dangerously back. His feet then left the ground, as he began to fall backwards, to land in the void.

" No ! Not that ! " Pell frightened.

" Toriko. " Cried Heles. " You can't lose. "

Spitting blood, Toriko kept falling backwards.

" TORIKOOOOOOOO. " Cried several of his companions.

Suddenly opening her eyes, Toriko managed in extremis to put one foot on the edge of the field, to manage to stay on the arena. Then putting his second foot on the ground, he spat blood again. Yet, managing to stand up straight, he let out a huge battle cry, much to Bang's surprise.

" Impossible ! How did you survive such an attack? There was even a chance that you would die. "

To answer his question, metallic noises were heard under Toriko's clothes. Then, pieces of metal came out of his clothes to fall at his feet.

" What … ? " Bang asked in surprise.

Smiling a little, Toriko pulled out her necklace again with Komatsu's knife. However, the blade of the weapon had been pulverized. Bang's latest attack had hit the knife under Toriko's clothes and destroyed it.

" Impossible. " Bang repeated! Did this knife manage to withstand part of my attack? It is unthinkable! What metal is it made of ? "

" It is only a question of resistance. " Toriko retorted. " I told you, didn't I? This knife brings together all the hopes of all the people in my universe! And that's what allowed me to be saved! And now, it's time to end you! And to show the respect I have towards you, I will show you my technique I have perfected during the last five years. "

Concentrating all of his strength, Toriko let out a cry before creating a red aura around him.

" KAIOKEN ! X 25! "

This sudden surge of energy made Bang recoil, as the hairs on his mustache began to fly in all directions.

" This technique ... I've seen it before. " Bang remarked, thinking back to Goku's fight against Saitama and Jiren. " It allows its user to amplify his strength. "

" It's exactly that ! Peles-san and Heles-san taught me this technique so that I could go beyond the limits of my being! Let's go for the second round and the last attack of this fight! 100 SUPER HIT… "

Regaining his composure, Bang made various movements with his arms that seemed to be done in slow motion.

" WATER STREAM… "

" … NAIL GUN ! "

" … ROCK SMASHING FIST ! "

Bang's attack was faster than Toriko's and he managed to hit him in the face again. Having her cheek crushed, Toriko's head had pulled back slightly. However, managing to keep his fist closed, Toriko in turn managed to hit Bang in the stomach.

Widening his eyes and spitting out his triples, Bang felt himself being thrown back violently, before crossing the whole field. Hitting the central pillar, he crossed it entirely, before continuing his course. Then, finally, he found himself above the void, before disappearing.

" Bang-san is eliminated ! "

" Species of big ass. " Cried Quitela, as soon as Bang's body appeared in the stands. " How could you lose like this ? "

" Whew. " Peles sighed, passing a handkerchief over his forehead. " I almost had a heart attack! Fortunately, Toriko has managed to turn the situation around. "

" I expected no less from someone as beautiful as Toriko-san. " Heles assured.

" Even if he won this fight, we are still in danger. " Midora retorted, arms crossed.

" KAIOKEN is a very energy intensive technique. " Approved Coco. " If he wants to last until the end of the tournament, Toriko really needs to be careful with its use. "


Spitting some blood, the only warrior in Universe 2 began to move away from the void. Still, he stopped, seeing someone standing in front of him.

" What do you want ? "

" You fight. " Midoriya announced.


" VERNIER ! "

Increasing her movement speed, Wendy rushed over to Muten Roshi and started circling her arms with gusts of wind.

" SKY DRAGON'S WINGS ! "

Seeing her rush at him, Muten Roshi slapped Wendy's forearms to deflect her attacks. Then he brought his foot to her face. Tilting her head back, Wendy dodged his kick. Creating a gust of wind, she then flew into the air, before puffing her cheeks.

" SKY DRAGON'S ROAR ! "

Seeing the tornado of wind descending towards him, Muten Roshi positioned both arms forward and tried to stop the attack as well. Gritting his teeth, he heard the ground crack under his feet. Yet, managing to gather ki in his hands, he managed to create two ki-blasts, which passed through the air currents.

Seeing them heading towards her, Wendy reached out her hand to the side and created a tornado of wind, which she used as a propellant. Avoiding Muten Roshi's attack, she then walked over to Muten Roshi, while raising her leg.

" SKY DRAGON'S CLAW!

Concentrating his energy, Muten Roshi increased the size of his muscles tenfold and then crossed his arms in front of his face. Kicking her thick muscles, Wendy moaned while doing no damage.

Uncrossing his arms, Muten Roshi closed his fist before pointing it at Wendy. Crossing her arms in turn for protection, Wendy moaned in pain as she felt Muten Roshi's fist shattering her bones in her forearms.

" Sorry for that, young girl. " The old man apologized. " I hate hitting women! Even more if they are only children. "

" Don't apologize for that! I, too, hate hitting old people. "

" Oye! You just hurt my pride. " He declared, resuming his normal figure. " I may be old, but I am also very well preserved for my age. "

" SKY DRAGON'S CRUSHING FANG ! "

Passing behind Muten Roshi, Wendy moved so fast that anyone could have mistaken her for a real draft. Yet, having been able to see her, Muten Roshi had thrown his upper body back. Then turning to Wendy, he created a ki-blast.

" MOMENTARY WIND ! "

Increasing her speed, Wendy dodged the attack before running towards Muten Roshi.

" SKY DRAGON'S WINGS !"

Attempting to punch the old man, Wendy was surprised to see him manage to grab his fist, stopping her dead.

" What ? "

Then swelling the muscles in her second arm, Muten Roshi punched her, sending her into the air. Bending his legs, he jumped after her.

Performing aerobatics, Wendy ends up creating air currents around her to stop. Then seeing Muten Roshi rushing on her, she decided to counterattack.

" LEADING SKY ARROW ! "

Hitting the old man, Wendy was surprised to only hit an afterimage.

" What … ? "

Being behind her, Muten Roshi kicked her which hit her back. Falling, Wendy came dangerously close to the ground. Directing his hand down, the child created a tornado of wind that hit the ground, slowing its course.

" SKY DRAGON'S WAVE WILD ! "

Landing on her feet, Wendy was starting to show signs of fatigue. She struggled to be able to fight for long, while maintaining her '' DRAGON'S FORM ''.

Landing next to her again, Muten Roshi then ran towards Wendy, and began to attack her with precision and speed. Trying to back away, Wendy was quickly caught up by the old man who quickly started pummeling her with punches.

Getting hit here and there, Wendy could only take the punches. However, managing to lift her leg she tried to kick her opponent's face. Positioning his arm in time to protect his face, Muten Roshi managed to stop him. Unfortunately, he didn't see Wendy's swollen cheeks until too late.

" SKY DRAGON'S ROAR ! "

The dragon slayer's attack hit the old man and managed to throw him back several yards. Landing on his back before doing a few rolls, Muten Roshi ends up bumping into a rock. Remaining like that, he allowed Wendy to walk towards him, while considering a strategy.

" Hey, the old man. " Beerus roared. " What are you waiting for to get up? Don't tell me you're gonna get your ass kicked by some stupid kid? "

" The stupid kid is part of our team. " Cried Gowasu. " Please watch your language, Beerus-san. "

" You, shut-up. "

Suddenly, Wendy stopped the instant, where Muten Roshi rose to his feet. Taking off his sunglasses, he saw the object's lenses shattered. Finally throwing his glasses at his feet, he stared at Wendy before asserting.

" You are surely the youngest fighter on this field and yet you are far from being the weakest! It makes me really sad that someone as promising as you is in danger of disappearing before they reach the peak of their potential. "

" I'm fighting to be able to continue living. " Wendy asserted. " And I wouldn't give up until I could secure a future for Fairy Tail and Kusu-chan's universe. "

" Kusu ? "

" She trained me for ten years and has always been kind to me! Kusu-chan made me become powerful and useful for my team! And she trusted me enough to tell me that she loved her world more than anything! I want to help her protect him because she is my friend. "

Listening to Muten Roshi only nodded.

" Just like Goku, I see that you have a pure heart! Nevertheless, each of us wants to protect our universe for one reason or another! This is why, me also, I have to fight to save my universe! And to start, I'll take you off the field ! "

At that moment, Muten Roshi rummaged in his clothes, and pulled out a small bottle.

" I will defeat you with this. "

" Hum? What is that ? "

" You will know very quickly. " Muten Roshi assured him, putting the object on the ground.

Suddenly concentrating, Muten Roshi let out a deep breath. Then he let his body mass increase slightly, in order to increase his psychic power. Immediately, Wendy felt the concentration of the air around them change.

" What is happening ? "

" MAFUBA ! " Muten Roshi then shouted.

In an instant, as if being sucked in by an indescribable force, Wendy felt her body get caught in a tornado coming out of the small bottle.

" What … ? " She wondered, unable to fight it.

" What is happening ? " Rumsshi wondered.

" The Mafuba ! " Krillin recognized.

" Go ahead, Muten-Roshi. " Tenshinhan encouraged him.

" AHHHHH ! " Muten Roshi shouted, raising his arms in the air.

Then, as Wendy's body began to fit into the bottle, he immediately lowered them, in order to seal his spell. However, it was then that the green tornado was swept by an even more powerful draft. Feeling himself recoil, Muten Roshi looked surprised to see Wendy floating in front of him, while having a shield of wind around her. The power of its protection was so phenomenal that the gusts of winds created by the Mafuba were thrown aside. Even the top of the vial had been sprayed, rendering it unusable.

" How ? " Muten Roshi wondered. " How did you do that? "

" I don't know. " Confessed Wendy. " I thought your attack was going to kill me! However, at the last moment, I managed to use my powers to control the air that was trapping me! By expelling him, I was able to free myself from your attack. "

" Impossible ! Thought Muten Roshi! This child created an anti-mafuba… instinctively? "

However, for her part, Wendy was having the greatest difficulty recovering. She too had been impressed by the old person's performance. She had really believed that her attack would make her lose. Moreover, to free herself from it, she had had to use a large part of her powers. Suffice to say that she was absolutely not sure to get out of it again in the face of an identical attack.

So she decided to end it immediately. This time it was Muten Roshi who felt the air pressure change, while Wendy sucked the latter so much in order to create an overpowered roar.

Understanding this, Muten Roshi increased his body mass to the maximum before crossing his hands behind his back. For him too, it had to be done quickly. He was no longer very young and this fight with Wendy was starting to exhaust him. He had to win and find a place to rest.

" KAMEHAME… "

" SKY DRAGON'S… "

" HAAAAAA ! "

" ROAAAAR ! "

Being ejected at the same time, the two destructive blasts hit each other in an instant, throwing the boulders back. Immediately, a shockwave spread as Wendy's hair and Muten Roshi's beard flew in all directions. Using all of their powers, the two opponents refused to lose, or even back down an inch. This attack would decide who would win this fight.

" Come on, go all out, old man. " Cried Beerus

" Wendy, I forbid you to lose. " Rumsshi warned him.

Ignoring their comments, both fighters only paid attention to the fighter in front of them, not caring about anything else. Yet, when everything seemed to prove they were evenly matched, Wendy ended up directing her hands towards Muten Roshi, before creating two more tornadoes.

" DOUBLE SKY DRAGON'S WAVE WILD ! "

The double attack merged with his original attack and managed to multiply his power tenfold, allowing him to reverse his opponent's surf.

" What ? " Muten Roshi wondered, trying in vain to put more power into it. " How is it that … ? "

Suddenly raising his gaze, he fixed Wendy's gaze and was surprised. Pure determination. This is all he could see in the girl's gaze, as she categorically refused to be eliminated. In an instant, he had the impression of seeing Goku, when he was a child. The saiyan and the dragon hunter seemed to be the same then.

" This girl … ? "

Smiling suddenly, he simply lowered his head, just as Wendy's attack made his own disappear before hitting him.

"She has real potential! I would have liked to train him. "

Continuing its momentum, Wendy's breath passed over the void, while knocking Muten Roshi into it.

Seeming flabbergasted by this, Beerus jumped a little, as the injured figure of Goku's former mentor appeared on the gradients.

" You? But how could you lose to a child ? "

" Muten Roshi, a senzu. " Krillin cried, tempting him.

However, with a flick of his hand, Muten Roshi declined the bean, showing that he felt fit enough not to have to eat one.

Instead, he just ends up saying. "

" Each universe already has a generation that will quickly take the place of mine. "

" Muten Roshi is eliminated. "


" Yeah, and another victory for Universe 10. " rejoices Rumsshi.

Panting, Wendy struggled to catch her breath. His fight had exhausted him to the point where his magic had almost completely disappeared from his body. It would take a long time for him to recover. As a result, hurrying up to a half-destroyed stone tower, she hoped to find a hiding place there.

Unfortunately, seeing her limp caught the attention of another participant. And in an instant, a huge fist smashed against Wendy's skull. Falling to the ground, the poor girl moaned in pain, before turning to see the huge silhouette of Sea King. Licking his lips, he asked.

" Oh, but what do we have here ? "

Without waiting for a response, he crushed his huge foot on Wendy's stomach, causing her to scream.

" What a charming cry! Laughed the sea monster, while removing his foot from his abdomen, to crush his face! However, I tend to prefer silence when I torture my targets. "

Also, a crack was heard when he managed to break the bone structure of Wendy's jaw.

" There is perfect. "

Quickly grabbing a thick handful of her hair, he lifted her off the ground, before targeting her face again. Immediately, most of the people in the stands could see him punch Wendy's face down with his fists, while the latter was unable to fight back.

" Hahaha. " The creature chuckled, as blood ran down its fists. " What is it good for? It's one of the rare times when I feel so alive! Still, I want more. "

Throwing Wendy in the air, he made a magnificent jump to find himself on top of her. Crushing it under his foot, he then let himself fall, and crashed into the ground at full speed, while using the child's body to cushion the shock.

Seeing a veritable fountain of blood coming out of the child's body, Gowasu was horrified.

" What a demon! Stop this massacre. "

" Quitela! Call back your warrior immediately. " Rumsshi ordered him.

His arms crossed, the latter had a smile on his face. Nevertheless, seeing how Sea King behaved, he found it best to follow this advice, fearing that he would accidentally kill Wendy.

" Hey, Sea King! You had enough fun! Now, hurry up. "

Staring at him then, the fishman paused for a few moments, before staring at Wendy. By this rate, the poor girl had already passed out from the pain, she might even be dead. Putting his hand on Wendy's abdomen, Sea King wanted to hear her pulse. Feeling his heart beating, he said with a smile.

" No ! I know she can still take the blows. "

Immediately, grabbing her foot, he lifted her before having fun throwing her several times against the ground. Huge bloodstains cover the places on the ground where Wendy's head hit.

Seeing this sad spectacle, most of the angels remained unmoved. However, they suddenly ended up directing their gaze in the same direction. Still motionless, alongside Gowasu and Rumsshi, Kusu caught the attention of his siblings. As she stared at Sea King torturing Wendy, veins appeared in her hand which held her staff. Anger could be seen in his eyes as she struggled to keep her composure.

To make matters worse, Sea King continued to take pleasure in torturing his new toy.

" Ha, ha! It is so much fun! And now … "

Gripping one of Wendy's arm, with his two huge hands, he exerted enormous pressure on it. Immediately, opening her eyes, Wendy screamed in pain, the instant a crack was heard. Breaking the bone in his arm, Sea King then tore it off, to everyone's surprise.

Holding his trophy in one hand, he simply dropped Wendy's body at his feet, as she curled into a ball, while holding onto her stump from which blood was leaking out. Having drops of his blood on his face, he began to lick his muzzle, before asserting.

" Yeah, it's so fun. "

" Fool. " Roared Quitela. " Hurry and get her out before she dies. "

" Shut up ! " Sea King suddenly ordered him, fixing him with a dark look. " You have no more orders to give me! Let me have fun the way I want. "

" What ? " Roared Quitela, narrowly failing to disintegrate him.

Putting his foot on Wedny's face again, Sea King asserted.

" Thanks to my new powers, I am now the supreme being! And once the tournament is in your pocket, you can only tremble, miserable gods! Because once the dragons balls in my pocket, I will crush you and my domination will begin! HAHAHA… "

A punch hit him in the face. Throwing himself back, Sea King crossed a boulder, and detonated it on impact.

" What ... What ? " Several deities were astonished.

Barely able to open one eye, Wendy could see someone standing in front of her in a protective position.

" Hey, are you okay? "

Not even being able to speak, Wendy eventually falls back into a coma. For his part, roaring in rage, Sea King stepped out of a pile of rubble, asking.

" Who dared to hit me? He will pay me for it. "

Then, looking in Wendy's direction, the creature caught sight of the man in front of the read.

" You ? " He wondered, noting that he was not part of Universe 10. " Why are you interfering to protect her? She is not from your universe. "

" I don't care what universe you or she come from. " Retorted the man in front of him. " However, … "

Lifting his straw hat a little, which obscured his view, Luffy glared, while asserting.

" There is no question that I let you do it and even less that I let you have the dragons balls. "
