Chapter 77: Tatsuya Hitoshi Versus El Hermano!!


After witnessing Snow's Cruel plan of getting rid of Blizz, Ribrianne found me again…

Me and Ribrianne exchanged blows until She began to shoot her heart-shaped ki blasts at me.

I dodged them all before I said; "You got some power, don't ya?".

"Of course I do! No matter what it takes, I will win the Tournament of Power!" Ribrianne said. "I'll use the orbs to further the great cause of love!".

"The Cause of What?" I questioned.

"My wish is to become a deity!" She said. "And not just any deity, but a Goddess of Love! One adored by the whole cosmos!".

"That's stupid. If you want to become a deity, then become a God of Destruction candidate. Though, after this tournament, they'll literally be nothing in the cosmos, so who's gonna adore you if everyone is gone?" I said. "If I had the Super Dragon Balls, I would've wished everyone here back. Sure, my family started the idea for Grand Zeno to start this Tournament, but I'm not like them. My dream is to become the greatest Hero in my universe. Hear my words, once this tournament is over and Universe 7 is victorious, I'll bring you all back with the Super Dragon Balls! Believe it!".

Ribrianne became stronger and grew butterfly wings as she called her new look; "Super Ribrianne"...

Ribrianne started shooting her weird ki blasts at me as I began to dodge them all. I transformed into my Super Saiyan Blue, I teleported behind Ribrianne, and sent her flying with a flying kick as she then bumps into El Hermano, Ribrianne gets up and runs away while I have finally got El Hermano's attention.

I powered down to my base form, I jumped down onto the ring, and glared at El Hermano.

"So you finally decided to come fight me…" I said as I did my stance.

I released my Chi and fired off a Kamehameha Wave at El Hermano. The Kamehameha wave had no affect as the blast was blocked by an invisible force.

"Goodness!" I heard a God of Destruction say.

"El Hermano's Energy created a pressure field, which functions as a kind of barrier." I heard a Supreme Kai say.

"Why isn't Tatsuya using Super Saiyan Blue?" Kaio-Shin asked. "I hope he doesn't think El Hermano's beneath him."

"I assure you, he doesn't." I heard Dad say. "It's the opposite. He's doing exactly what I do when I face a strong opponent. Tatsuya is probing around the edges, testing El Hermano's power and his own power, as well."

I transformed into my Super Saiyan form, I dashed towards him, and landed a few blows on him, but Hermano didn't even flinch!

I transformed into my Super Saiyan 2 and began landing blows on El Hermano as they had no effect on him.

"Why not start at full strength?" Kaio-Shin asked.

"Tatsuya's a Martial Artist. And when you're at the top level, like him, before you can compete all-out, you want to see the scope of your opponent's power, understand the way he reacts, and establish what your own strengths are, too. Then you'll use your power the best possible way." Dad said.

I then landed a kick on his neck, which only made Hermano move his neck a little. I jumped back, I transformed into my Super Saiyan God Form, I dashed towards El Hermano, and threw a punch at him as he easily blocked it with his finger!

I threw a barrage of punches at him and he blocked them all with that same finger he blocked my first punch with.

I stepped back and said out loud to El Hermano; "What's it gonna take to get you into high gear? Maybe this will do it."

I transformed into my Super Saiyan Blue Form in front of El Hermano.

"Well, he's showin' the full power of Super Saiyan Blue." I heard a Belmod say. "Of course, even that will prove pointless."

"Not So. In a different way it could prove quite useful, in fact. We want him as strong as possible when he loses." Kaio-Khai said.

"And why does that matter?" Belmod asked.

"Watch and you'll see." Kaio-Khai said. "This child, Tatsuya, may be one of the best warriors in this whole Tournament of Power. If he fights with everything he has and yet El Hermano still pummels him easily, the remaining contestants in the ring will realize they have no chance, and lose their will to compete."

"So you want Tatsuya to reach full power so we can make an example of him as mental warfare. I like that." Belmod said.

I walked up and stood face to face with El Hermano before we unleashed an intense pressure of power and began to fight all around the ring. We exchanged blows until El Hermano grabbed my leg and began slamming me around like a rag doll against a cliff until I broke free as I unleashed my Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-Ken Technique and jumped away from him.

I quickly prepared a powerful Kamehameha wave and right as he saw me, I fired it off at him. El Hermano dodged it by doing a front flip and then he jumped towards me.

I began to jump up of cliffs as I began to shoot a barrage of Ki blasts at him. He continued to follow me until he grabbed my leg again and began swinging me around until he threw me. I quickly landed safely onto my feet and unleashed my Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-Ken to 10 folds before I dashed towards him and we went back to exchanging blows. We fought all around the ring again until Hermano gut punched me and sent me flying into a cliff with another punch.

Hermano appeared in front of me, he lifts me up as he grabbed me by my hair, and said; "It's over!".

He gut-punched me and sent me flying near the edge of the ring with a powerful, red and small ki blast. El Hermano turned his back towards me I got back up and asked him in a serious tone; "Where do you think you're going?".

I unleashed my Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-Ken to 20 folds before I dashed towards El Hermano, but he stopped me with an invisible eye blast and sent me flying with another one.

"No way!" I heard Akihiko shout out.

"What the heck was that?" I heard Danuja say.

"Tch. Not even I could see those blasts coming." I heard Hikaru say. "That's one tough bastard!".

I struggled to stand back up onto my feet and looked down on my clothes as I saw dents and marks on them.

"Look at those marks." I heard Drake say. "He must've hit Tatsuya with countless attacks all at once."

"Yeah, but I didn't even see him lift a finger." I heard Son Gochi say.

I noticed El Hermano behind me and turned around to face him.

"I knew he was advanced, but that's a whole other level." I heard Tsuki say.

"Tatsuya's time in the tournament may be over." I heard Danuja say.

"Heh, heh. You've out-played me, El Hermano. It's hard to believe I couldn't even land a blow when I was at Blue with Kaio-Ken times 20!" I said to him.

I reverted back to my base form and said to him; "But I do have a full appreciation of your strength now. And that's convinced me to use something I've been holding back."

I jumped up onto a high cliff, and threw my hands up into the air.

"It's the Spirit Bomb!" Kin Said.

"Why did he return back to his base form?" Danuja asked.

"He told a few of us once he can't gather spirit energy as a Super Saiyan, because that form is fueled by rage." Kin said.

I began to form the Spirit Bomb as I shouted out; "All right, everyone! I need you to lend me all the energy you can spare! Let's go!".

Luck threw their hands up as he said; "Take as much of mine as you need!".

"Yeah, same here!" Danuja said as he threw his hand into the air.

"I think we can both spare some." Drake said as he lifted his hand up.

"That's right, it won't bother me." Gochi said as she lifted her hand up.

"My Father told me all about this technique so I know it quite well. And while my father only had bad memories of it, it is a new day." Snow said as he lifted his right hand up, giving me his energy. "Snow, the Son of the Great Emperor Frieza, bestows upon you his energy!".

"Tch. Fine..." Hikaru said as he lifted his left hand up, giving me his energy.

The Spirit Bomb formed above me as I said; "Thanks everyone! But it's still too small… I'm going to need a lot more time to gather enough energy."

"I'll wait. Take however much time you require." El Hermano said. "If this is your special move, then I want it done right. Go ahead and do your worst!".

"All right. I'm surprised. Thanks for being so accommodating." I said.

"El Hermano will take on Tatsuya's massive attack and then counter with a move of even greater might." Kaio-Khai said.

"Heh, heh. It's a simple, but effective approach. I can hardly wait." Belmod said.

"Take our energy too!" Kin said as he and Tsuki lifted their hands up in the air.

"Hell yeah!" Akihiko said, throwing both of his hands up in the air.

"What a sight. That's truly a fascinating technique." I heard a God of Destruction say.

"I can't believe two lower-ranked universes have produced warriors this good!" I heard another God of Destruction say.

"Yes. This promises to be quite the climax." I heard another God of Destruction say.

The Spirit Bomb became bigger as I said, "It's ready! Ha, ha! Yes!".

"All right, El Hermano. Once you're out, I hope you don't regret giving me the time to finish this!" I said before I threw the Super Spirit Bomb at El Hermano. "This is what it looks like when the Seventh Universe unites! This is our Spirit Bomb!".

El Hermano began pushing the Spirit Bomb back towards me with one hand!

"Seriously?" I said out loud in surprise.

"Impossible! He's pushing it away!" Akihiko said in surprise.

"Tatsuya's not done yet. He can power up and push it back." Tsuki said.

I transformed into my Super Saiyan Blue form to push it back, but I was still struggling against it. I unleashed my Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-Ken 10x Technique, then Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-Ken 20x to push the spirit bomb back towards El Hermano. El Hermano stopped it and pushed the Spirit Bomb back with both of his hands. I saw El Hermano putting his hands down and uses his eye blast technique to keep it pushing back towards me.

"Yes! Don't give up yet, finish this, Saiyan!" I heard Beerus say.

"It's a considerable amount of energy, indeed. Most Effective." I heard a God of Destruction say.

"Yes, it's a great achievement. Such might cannot be gained through any normal discipline." I heard a Supreme Kai say. "El Hermano is especially astonishing. The way he can exert and command such incredible force with merely a glare. It is a wondrous strength to behold."

Me and El Hermano kept the Spirit Bomb in place as I heard Whis say to Beerus; "It seems Tatsuya has reached the very limit of his power. While El Hermano remains calm and collected and is a far cry from going all-out, my lord."

"Astounding. I've never felt such force. Not in all my life. His strength... is beyond words." I heard Kaio-Shin say.

"Indeed, and if I were to measure, I would have to say, his power far exceeds his younger brother, Jiren, as both of their powers are at the level of a Destroyer God... And Perhaps even far greater and higher... I have heard a rumor that one of the universes besides our own, has produced a mortal who has surpassed his own Destroyer. A wild notion... but yet it may seem to be true...".

"That's right, El Hermano. Show the cosmos the full extent of your remarkable power. Do your duty and destroy the one named Tatsuya Hitoshi, the Next Chosen One!" Belmod said.

"Am I the only one concerned about that giant ball of energy?" Champa asked out loud.

"The pressure of their colliding powers is causing the energy ball to expand, and it cannot remain stable for much longer." Vados said.

The Spirit Bomb stopped in place and it exploded in front of me as I then fell into the Spirit Bomb and reawakened a certain power within another realm. The explosion created a massive crater as Top Said; "It's over, El Hermano. Victory is yours."

Everyone thought I was dead as I was gone from the ring. Everyone from Universe 7 became emotional over my lost of life. Universe 11 became cocky and arrogant over my loss and I was about to be eliminated from the tournament.

Everyone was about to give up hope until my father smirked and said; "I wouldn't get so cocky if I were you, Universe 11. Since this is just the beginning of the real fight…".

End of Chapter 77.
