Victory? What is it?

Void universe

Jiren heard the plea of his two teammates, Dyspo and Toppo, and before he could realize what happened, he had already shot both Goku and Vegeta with a mighty Ki blast. He heard his name from Toppo's mouth, and this time... Well, his body acted on his own, fueled by a nightmare he had from... When he was a toddler, then a child. In a flash, he was already there, by their side, before grabbed both of them, and threw them all the way to the ring, and before they even land, he landed on Frieza.. Sorta, as he landed fist first on the tyrant, effectively knocking him away while kicking Seventeen at the same time.

"Oya? If the most powerful of mortals isn't challenging the Golden God?" Frieza asked as Jiren was mute. However, he heard one sentance which made him give up on fighting Frieza, as he had already lost...

"No need to worry yourself Jiren! I made my decision already!" Toppo's voice was heard and Jiren nodded as he... Walked away?

"Sorry Jiren! I think that I'm out of juice!" Dyspo told his teammate who shrugged. "Can you please cover me until I can recharge a bit?" The Gray nodded, not noticing on the stands the satisfied, proud yet menacing smile of the Hakaishin of the Universe of justice.

"Well Toppo, don't waste too much energy!" Jiren told his friend.. His Only friend who smiled at him and nodded proudly. "I think it is time!" Jiren said mournfully. 'If only I had this power back then, then Mother.. Father... Everyone... My friends... Sensei.. None of them would have died. No! I will Not allow myself to lose anyone, ever again!'

"Vegeta, is this?" Goku asked his friend who narrowed his eyes while looking at Toppo.

"God's Ki. This can't be!" Vegeta said as Belmod grinned while Beerus was now sweating. Not for one reason, but two.

"He did finish his training?" Beerus asked in shock as Belmod grinned maniacly now.

"Yes Toppo! Show them your True power. This is a battle for survival!" Belmod encouraged his subbordinate and future successor.

"Seems like it is not only Toppo who would break his limit today, yes?" Marcarita said as Khai now gulped.

"Belmod-sama, does this mean?" Khai asked as Belmod laughed at the show.

"Universe seven, I'm afraid that this is it for you. The last time Jiren did this, he was still a teen. Now, let's see exactly how strong he became!" Belmod's laugher was heard from the other universes.

"Those two are insane!" Roshi said as the rest of his Universe gulped.

"It is not Toppo who worries me! It's Jiren! At first I thought that he was at the level of a Hakaishin, but now? He's strong enough to fight the one threat that anyone from the old ages are deathly afraid of!" Beerus told Whis who sighed.

"Oh my! Beerus-sama, don't you mean... Him?" Beerus was now smilling sadly.

"Well Whis, thank you for everything my old friend. You saved me, you trained me, while Vados trained my schmuck of a brother, even though I lost.. Everything, at least the wheel of justice had come full circle. It's a shame I could no longer..." Beerus sighed sadly, "Nontheless, I'm sorry if I caused you too much trouble."

"Apology accepted, Beerus-sama. It's a shame. You had an amazing story to tell the mortals if you chose so." Whis said as Belmod glanced at Beerus.

"Jiren isn't too different from you if that's a consolation!" Belmod said only for the entire universe to shake as a huge flame was ablaze inside the ring. And although the ring shook earlier by the transformation of Toppo, Jiren's was even more impressive as his Ki was like a solar explosion, with the Ki flying everywhere all over the dimension. Both Jiren and Toppo had bulked up incredibly, and even increased in height as their transformations into their strongest mode yet was happening. As soon as it stopped, each lunged at his opponent. Jiren at Goku and Vegeta and Toppo at Seventeen and Frieza. Dyspo was almost out of question, but he did recover enough to grab Seventeen and distract him enough for Jiren to seemingly teleport in front of him before kicking him away. Unfortunately, this was the perfect opportunity for Vegeta to knock the speedster out of the ring. Unfortunately for the prince of Saiyajin, this was Jiren's berserk button as what it followed was only decribed by Belmod as, "The one thing he wouldn't do for Any prize!"...

It took less time to eliminate Vegeta, than Goku's instant transmission. And while Toppo managed to knock Frieza out of the ring after the Tyrant arrogantly thought that the Hakaishin-in-training was a weakling, this spent the old warrior enough for Goku to counter him using his Ultra-Instinct Omen. As Jiren saw Toppo's body fall, this time too late for him to save his friend, he had the worst kind of flashbacks as all of his demons surfaced.

'How dare you!' Was the only thought on Jiren's mind as his body heat increased exponentially, his muscles bulging a bit, but tightened a lot, his Ki, while it was all over the place before, now was focused like a red giant condensed into the size of a magnatar star of all things. While his Ki was red, it became more focused than ever, to the point where it would be compared to a blackhole of Ki. As Goku was trying his best to counter, he just couldn't. As witnessed by Beerus, who was standing up in respect for the Saiyajin and the Gray, one achieved the goal of the Hakaishin, while the other surpassed all of the Hakaishins.

"Goku had lost!" Beerus said as he looked well enough to know where the battle was going. Goku was countering one attack, and receiving a dozen at least in return. It wasn't as much of a battle of power nor strength. Jiren's reflexes were just... Focused and sharpened to be even better at what the Gods of Destructions were aspiring. In short? The Gray's level was increasing at a terrifying rate.

"At this rate, Jiren can easily beat even you Belmod-sama, yes?" Marcarita asked the Hakaishin who sighed dejectedly.

"Is he hurting himself?" Belmod asked the Angel who shook her head, "Then, he's not going to last..."

"Belmod-sama, what do you mean?" Khai asked his counterpart who sighed.

"Jiren had broken all of his limits, including the mental ones. He's focused, but at what cost?" This question made the Pride Troopers terrified.

"JIREN! DON'T YOU DARE MAKE THIS A LONG BATTLE! FINISH THIS RIGHT NOW!" Toppo screamed at the top of his lungs.

"JIREN! WE'RE COUNTING ON YOU! YOU ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN A STUPID WIN OR LOSS!" Dyspo joined him.

"Sorry, Goku!" Jiren whispered to the Saiyajin before he grabbed him, and using his size advantage, threw him with all of his might out of the ring with one hand like a bowling ball. This had made the last battle over. "It's over!" The Gray said as Goku was teleported to the stands.

"The tournament of power is concluded. Universe Eleven is the winner. Hence, Univers seven will be erased." The father of all Angels announced as Jiren looked at Universe seven dissapear, probably forever. It was a stark contrast within Universe 11, where Belmod, Marcarita, Khai and the rest of the Pride Troopers who were Never happier, as they were practically celebrating, and Jiren who had the most grim of looks in his face. It wasn't his usual stoic self, this was his empathic self, who did wake up.. His conscious was becoming.. Dirtied by the moments.

'Is my wish worth... The death of seven entire Universes?' Jiren had his own self doubt. Can he... No! He had to know this, right here, right now.

"Belmod, would Sensei like to be revived at this cost?" Jiren asked the Hakaishin who smiled at him sadly.

"I don't think he'd like it one bit." Jiren's heart was broken in two upon hearing this. He watched how Zeno was sad, both of them, how Goku was pleading him, how he shook his head, and he couldn't but remember himself upon seeing this. He decided to leave this King of all to his own grief. Like they said, you look at someone, and you look at yourself in the mirror. He just couldn't be cruel.

"Marcarita, do you know if they're... Happy over there?" Jiren asked the Angel who just nodded at him. This was All he needed to know. His decision was hard though. He couldn't let himself become a murderer, the worse mass murderer ever, and yet.. His wish to see them again, to give them a second chance. He saw how his team was happy and were celebrating his victory. His victory? More like his loss! He lost his own justice... He's.. No longer the hero called Jiren. He's the one who destroyed the Universes.

"Now make your wish, Jiren!" The great priest ordered as the Gray took a deep breath, for he know that he will regret this for all his life. His dreams were never of the future, rather, the past. Sure, he caught the murderer, and Belmod personally avenged them by destroying it, even it's soul, but not even Marcarita can bring them back... The question was, what will he do? Lose the past he longed for, ever since he was a toddler, and longed for more as a child, or... Thorw it away and cleanse his own sin of becoming a murderer? Would they feel ashamed of him, or proud of him?

"Zeno-sama, can I wish even for.. What you erased to be brought back?" Jiren asked the two kings who nodded at him, "You would forgive me?"

"We forgive you, even if we're wondering if you have any other wish you would like to be realised?" The two kings asked as Jiren smiled sadly. As much as he wanted to, this was like killing all of the other Universes. With the greatest of struggle, lest he does change his mind at the face of the irresistable temptation, Jiren had made his ultimate decision.

"I'm doing the right thing! I ask the dragon to revive All of the erased Universes, past and present!" Jiren spoke the hardest sentance of his entire life. It was so easy for him torevive the fallen, and yet, it was so hard. Would they feel..?

"Jiren, you know what you're doing?" Belmod asked the Gray who gritted his teeth while clenching his fists hard enough to turn anything caught within to sub-atomical particules.

"I'm attoning for my greatest sin! I... I will see them when I die!" Jiren replied, his mask of stoicism all but gone. All of the Pride Troopers looked at him with empathy, respect, and support.

"Jiren, thank you!" Toppo spoke first, being his friend.

"Why Toppo? Even though I... I let them die; and treated all of you with disrespect!" Jiren said mournfully. All of his teammates snorted.

"You were a toddler, then a kid. You were weaker. You avenged them. It's so easy to lose sight of yourself, to lose your moral compass in hardship, yet, this was the hardest of tests where any lesser mortal would have thrown it away. He's never prouder than you. They are never prouder than you! You should forgive yourself Jiren!" Belmod told his ace as Jiren was now hiding his face with his palm, looking away from anyone and everyone.

"It's okay Jiren. None of us are judging you, yes?" Marcarita said as the gray sighed. He couldn't show any weakness to anyone. The grand Priest was smiling as Jiren did the hardest of choices any mortal can do : Sacrifinc his own happiness for the sake of others. And as soon as everyone was revived, they were shocked beyond any words as they saw Jiren the Gray, looking seldomn as ever, yet, his eyes were duller than before.

"Don't worry Jiren, you'll revive them the next time?" Dyspo said as the Gray looked even sadder. After all of his struggle, he let go of his past. He betrayed his own family and blood...

"We.. I personally know how it feels to lose someone very precious. So I.. What is done is done, Jiren. Look at what you still have." Kunsi told the Gray who sighed dejectedly. Well, that's a good advice.

"What do I still have?" Jiren asked himself only to look at the rest of the Pride Troopers, and smile a sad, ghost of a smile, but that was a start.

"Hello! Who did revive me and my Universe?" A voice that terrified many of the presents was heard and Belmod's eyes widened at the newest of threats.

"You!" The grand priest spat with rage as the Majin grinned at him.

"How long did you put me to a dormant state?" He asked in reply, making Zeno, both of them, glare at him. This shocked everyone, "Calm yourselfs! I am bored. So... Starting with the one who revived me, I will make anyone's wish come true. Now, as thanks for Universe seven's Hakaishin, Beerus-san, for not destroying me? I will grant him Any wish he likes, and he's number two. Everyone else who have a wish? Well, take a line. Either I grant you your wish, if it is funny, interesting, worthy, amazing, or all of the above... Or kill you for wasting my time. Now, get in line if you please!" Buu said.. Well, this Buu for start was the size of his Super self after he absorbed everyone, with a very long anteanna.

"I wished for every Universe erased back.. We won!" Jiren said as the other Pride Troopers looked at each other before they all shook their heads, "Khai? Belmod? Marcarita?" Again, he sighed. Only he had a wish to be granted it seems.

"I have a wish that my family, friends, home planet inhabitants, and Sensei.." Jiren started only for Buu to smile at him.

"Your wish is granted and accepted Jiren!" Buu replied and Jiren was shocked. It was too easy for him to...

"Just like that?" Jiren asked in shock, hope, wonder and joy.

"Just like that!" Buu replied as he snapped his fingers and lo and behold. Jiren's friends, his Sensei, his parents, his neighboors, his parents, his relatives... They were alive? They were breathing again, didn't age a single day.. His vision became hazy, as tears were streaming before he... Lunged at them in a bear hug.

"Mom! Dad! Sensei!" Jiren's smile was Never this wide ever since they were killed..

"Jiren?" They asked in wonder, amazement and pride.

"I.." He started only for all of them to nod at him.

"We know everything! We watched you up there." He heard as Belmod grinned at Toppo.

"Your wish is granted, Beerus-san!" He heard Buu say and Beerus smile earnestly. "Oh Goku, I can see the guilt in your heart about that incident! Not only you, but the others too."

"Guilt?" Belmod asked Beerus who shrugged his shoulders.

"Belmod-sama, I can answer your question. A few years ago, an android helped them. However, she sacrificed herself to defeat her.. Other half." Whis replied as Jiren shrugged.

"We'll take her if you want?" Jiren offered, his mood was never this good since.. Well, he was a toddler.

"I knew it! Pay up Belmod-sama if you please, yes?" Marcarita told the Hakaishin who grumbled something under his breath and Jiren... Had a small smile at the exchange.

"Well then, Universe seven, I left a curse for you, and a gift for Universe eleven!" Buu said with an evil grin, "Consider it... Payback with interest for murdering my daughter!"

"EEEEHHHHHH? SHE WAS YOUR DAUGHTER?" Kurilin asked Buu who laughed at him.

"In a sense? Yes! Technically? No!" Buu answered. "Next!"

"I wish for.." Frieza asked and Buu snorted.

"You never changed one bit Frieza! Alright, I'll give you a few extra inches..." He said and everyone but a few who were totally clueless went green with disgust, "In your height as you wished for!"

"HUUUUUUUUH?" Vegeta asked before he flared in rage, "YOU LITTLE...!"

"He just wanted to be taller?" Piccolo asked in bewilderment.

"Are you kidding me?" Goku of all people was shocked upon hearing this, "How vain are you?"

"Heh, let's just say that I have my own reasons and please leave it at that!" Frieza replied as Vegeta, Piccolo, Goku, Kurilin and Gohan remembered why he wanted the height.

"Brother issue, hah?" Goku deduced easily, "I can relate."

Jiren looked at Buu who shrugged. "Er, don't any of you have a wish?" Jiren asked, if a bit.. Shyly?

"No./ Nah./ None./ Nothing./ Don't have any./ None whatsoever." Jiren blinked twice, and so did Belmod, Marcarita and the rest of the Universes. "Fine. I think that you do owe me some explanations, and a vacation, Belmod!" Jiren said with a stoic tone, but the tone was clear : I will get my vacation or else!

That was so weird, even for Buu, as it did make the Majin snort in laugher before he shrugged. Well, that was a funny weird moment to see any Hakaishin afraid of any mortal. Unfortunately for him? He wasn't a mortal, not in the regular sense...

"Well, now as Universe eleven will take their leave, and so does seven... Time for one to earn his reward, and the other the consequences. Reap what you did sow!" Buu said as he grinned maniaclly. This will be good!


Universe 7

"Not her again!" Vegeta said in a very worried tone as he felt the Ki of one Majin Android, stronger than ever, if not at the same level of him, Goku, Frieza...

"I think that dark times had fell upon us!" Goku said in a worried tone as he realized exactly what Buu meant.

"Father?" Gohan asked his father who sighed dejectedly.

"It seems that we are screwed! She's not even here, but I don't even want to know what she would do!" Piccolo added as Kurilin sighed at this. Dark times on Universe 7 indeed.


Universe 11

"Are you joking Jiren?" Toppo asked his friend who sighed sadly.

"I wish I was. I don't know how long I'd be asleep this time my friend." Jiren's reply made them all look at him in a very dirty manner. "What?"

"Look man, the least you can do, is that you introduce us to your family and friends, and Sensei." Dyspo said in a serious tone as he nudged Kahseral who sighed.

"Look, the least we can do is.. You know? Celebrate?" Kahseral's next words were interrupted by Jiren who's eyes widened.

"I have to go home, Now! Enjoy everything you can, but there's someone in my.. Our, Home!" Jiren's words made his parents, friends and Sensei smile at him proudly, yet, they nodded at him. And then.. A few moments later, he was already away faster than any ship, with only people like Khai or Marcarita could atteint faster speed...

"I assume that you're Jiren's father and you're his Sensei? My name is Toppo, I'm the leader of the Pride troopers, and I think that I have a lot to tell you about your son and student." Toppo tried to break the ice as he saw their.. Interested looks, "How about we go to my favourite bar in Netfiss?"

"I agree." Jiren's father replied.

"Seconded. I know about everything, but I want to hear and share." Gicchin replied with a warm smile.


AN : Well, that's the first chapter. Hope tomorrow I'll update more?
