"What are we waiting for? Let's get out there and kick some bastard's ass and throw them off this ring!" Bakugo roared, struggling to stay put.

"Will you keep it down?!" Momo ordered him. "The plan was to stay together and wait for the other enemies to fight each other."

Staying together, the Universe 12 team were glued to each other, waiting for the enemy numbers to drop. To win this tournament, they relied on their teamwork, while Shoto and Tokoyami scouted to gauge the powers of the other fighters.

Seeing various explosions around them, Midoriya remained in a fighting stance. Still, he felt his arms shake. Despite having spent years fighting this feeling, Deku was still afraid. Saving his world was a huge pressure for him. His mother, his classmates, Eri, All Might, Uraraka, Tsu, even the villains... he had to save them all, and the other planets in Universe Twelve were a part of this as well. But would he really be able to defeat his opponents and get used to the idea of wiping out the life of other universes, for the sake of saving his own? A Pro Hero's job was to save as many lives as possible, but he knew, along with many others, not everyone could be saved, and it pained him to think that.

"Midoriya, are you alright?" Iida questioned him, shaking him out of his inner thoughts, and this time, he wasn't mumbling out loud.

"Y... yeah, don't worry," The ninth holder of One For All said, trying to hide his fear.

"Hey, no worries bro," cried Kirishima, raising his thumb. "We'll win this tournament! That's a promise."

"Yeah, but..."

Midoriya was still skeptical of that, seeing the level of the other competitors were leagues above them, seeing Jiren just sitting there, meditating, he assumed he was probably the strongest warrior in the tournament, and didn't think the other warriors were worth his time. He didn't think even All Might in his prime could damage him in the slightest. "I don't see how we can beat some of them, and if we just stand around doing nothing, the other universes could get the chance to catch us off guard and eliminate us."

"Well, when you put it like that-"

At that moment, a knee hit Kirishima's face and knocked him to the ground, with his nose crushed.

"What the?!" the other U.A. students were astonished, immediately jumping to disperse a little.

Seeing Kirishima stay on the ground, Boros seemed to be disappointed.

"Don't tell me this is all the Twelfth Universe has to offer? He was so distracted that he couldn't even feel my presence! And his endurance is simply embarrassing."

But immediately Iida and Bakugo were in front of him, ready to attack.

"DIE, YA BASTARD!" Bakugo yelled.

First, using his power, Iida managed to kick the alien's neck, then Bakugo prepared to detonate his fists. Seeing him do it, Boros crossed his arms in front of his face to protect it. Immediately, Bakugo's fist exploded. Then brushing off the smoke with a flick of his arm, Boros slapped Iida's abdomen, managing to make him spit out his saliva. Then he grabbed Bakugo by his neck.

"Looks like you're going to be my first elimination. Definitely a blow to your pride," Boros commented.

Not having said his last word, Bakugo grabbed the alien's arm before swinging his foot to strike his chin, creating another explosion. Feeling his head pull back, Boros let go of Bakugo. Then Boros felt roots wrap around his legs, preventing him from fleeing.

"What is this?!"

In front of him, Ibara was praying, while his vines tied Boros up.

"VIA DOLORESA!"

Using her move, Ibara managed to trap Boros with her vines, which were all around him ending on four of the many rocks. This would be sure to ensnare anything that came in contact with them.

"I question just exactly you're trying to attempt here. Is it to trap me in this box of vines?" Boros questioned, before reaching out to her.

Creating a ki blast, he directed his attack towards Ibara who remained motionless. Exploding, the attack shook the area, proving Boros' power. Yet the vines were still twisting.

And for good reason, instead of Ibara, Kirishima had interposed and received the attack. Having hardened his skin, he had managed to withstand the attack without feeling the slightest pain.

"How can you still stand up? I thought I rid of you already."

Suddenly, finding herself in front of the alien, Kendo let her fist grow to reach the size of a giant's hand and gave the leader of the Dark Matter Thieves a powerful punch, which struck his whole body. The power of the blow was so great that the roots gave way and Boros was thrown back. However, positioning himself behind him, Bakugo roared before hitting his back with his fist.

Moaning in pain, Boros was hurled into the air. Closing his eyes for a moment, he opened them the instant a figure found itself in front of his face.

" How did he get this close to me in such a short span of time?! " He mentally exclaimed, seeing Izuku Midoriya in front of him with his fist held out, with green lighting cackling around him.

"DETROIT SMASH!"

Hit right in the jaw, Boros' body descended downwards at full speed, before hitting the ground.

Seeing this, Giin watched the fight while crossing his arms while maintaining a serious face.

"It looks like they are in control of this battle! I sincerely hope it continues like this for the rest of the tournament."

"I see no reason to worry, Lord Giin. With their numbers as well as their strategy, their teamwork could be the key to our victory," Agu agreed.

For his part, landing on the ground, Midoriya looked at Boros' body which was lying on the ground.

"We got him." Midoriya called to his classmates.

"Alright, Ibara! Throw him off the ring before he regains consciousness." Momo asked the Class 1-B student.

Immediately, Ibara created new vines to grab the alien and throw him into the void. However, before he grabbed hold of him, Boros got up in an instant and performed various backflips. Then standing again, he showed his smiling face to everyone, while he didn't have the slightest scratch.

"I told you we have nothing to worry about, Kai." Quitela remarked to Kuru. "Boros can handle a bunch of brats, no problem!"

"It seems I was worrying over nothing. I apologize for ever so doubting you," Kuru apologized.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. You can thank me by zipping your mouth, and enjoy the show."

The angel, Cognac, did not lose his smile as he continued to view the fight between Boros and the students of U.A. High.

"Not bad, young ones! Nevertheless, I should warn you now, I was toying with you all! All I did was analyze your powers and heat myself up! Nothing serious, if I do imply so myself."

Then, letting his muscles swell slightly, he eventually lets himself rush towards the group of young heroes and heroines.

"Now to rid this ring of your presence!"

Preparing to stop him, the small group felt a presence behind them. Jumping to the side in time, they dodged a large sword, the holder being a 29-foot tall woman to their major shock, who attempted to hit them with her sword, Napoleon. Also surprised by her arrival, Boros could not help but get in the way and swing his fist at the huge woman, hitting her directly in the face.

"I'm not trying to save you brats, I'll deal with you all later. It looks like I have a bigger target." Boros claimed the teenagers, who understood the message, but some were unpleased, with Bakugo being one of them.

" That... that stupid bitch got in the way of the damn fight. " He thought in fury, but quickly calmed himself down.

Groaning in pain, Big Mom took a step back. Then, opening her eyes to show only anger, she shook her sword at Boros.

"Oh, I'm gonna have fun playing with you."

Shaking the ground every time her sword struck the ground, Big Mom chased Boros who dodged each of her attacks, before bombarding her with a multitude of energy blasts. Finding herself in pain, Big Mom felt her body slide back.

"I'm not pleased with the fact you interfered in my fight, which I was enjoying. I'll finish this quickly!"

"Try to do so if you can, one-eyed freak! Prometheus! Zeus!"

Immediately, sensing two presences around him, Boros saw a gray cloud and a sun staring at him.

In response, the two beings attacked him with fire and lightning. Suddenly disappearing, Boros found himself next to Prometheus and gave the sun a powerful kick. Not understanding what was happening, the sun was knocked out and his body hit Zeus. Having got rid of them, Boros then walked over to Big Mom. Seeing him come, Big Mom closed her fist and covered it with Haki. Then, their battle became more heated up, with the both of them not daring to hold back as the fists of the two opponents hit each other.

Feeling like a shockwave touched his face, Midoriya watched the fight from a little further away, rather glad Boros had forgotten them.

"All of them are amazing."

"We are just as much as they are," Shinso assured, watching what was going on with his hands in his pockets.

Turning around, the boy then saw Cocotte and Starjun start to fight behind them. Immediately he began to think of a plan.


"FIVE FOLD SPIKED PUNCH!" Toriko cried.

Seeing the Gourmet Hunter jump towards him with his fist clenched, the Prince of Saiyans jumped back and let the blue haired man hit the ground. Seemingly to be hit five times, the arena floor cracked before a crater formed around Toriko's fist.

"Right, this isn't going to be something I can managed in this state!" Vegeta stated.

Wasting no time, he transformed into a Super Saiyan, and ran towards Toriko, with his fist clenched.

Hearing him arrive, Toriko turned around before quickly shaking his leg.

"FLYING FORK!"

Immediately, Vegeta was quite surprised to see forks as sturdy as iron heading towards him. Nevertheless, he managed to avoid them one by one, before finding himself in front of Toriko. Then, targeting his stomach, he punched it several times.

Moaning in pain with each blow, Toriko was more than unlucky enough to feel the power of a Saiyan. Yet, managing to raise his arm in the air, he cried out.

"KNIFE NAIL GUN! 30 HITS!"

Seeing a sword appear this time, Vegeta tried to pull away. However, he felt the point of the sword pierce his shoulder. And in an instant, he had the impression that about thirty swords were piercing his body. Seeing him back away, Toriko focused his energy in both of his fists before directing them towards Vegeta.

"GET READY! 75 HIT NAIL PUNCH!"

Seeing him arrive, Vegeta bent down in time to find himself under the gourmet's body. Then raising his fist, Vegeta then hit him on the chin. Taking two steps back, Toriko groaned, running his hand over his lips to wipe away the blood.

"We can say that you don't hesitate to hit hard."

"Those who don't have the desire to engage in combat or don't deserve to even lay a foot on this ring!" Vegeta retorted, running towards him.

However, to his surprise, he felt immobilized.

"What the hell?" He exclaimed, trying his best to break free but found himself unable to move.

"I GOT HIM!" Sunny assured, as his hair was wrapped around Vegeta.

"JET NAILGUN!"

And before Vegeta could react, Toriko punched his stomach with power.

" AHHHHHHHH ! "

Yet because of Sunny's hair, the Saiyan was always at his mercy.

"100 HIT NAIL GUN!"

Taking another punch, Vegeta widened his eyes as his body seemed to be bombarded with invisible blows.

"Sorry for having to behave so cowardly," The man apologized. "Nevertheless, I must save my precious universe! I'll be done with you right now! FLYING NAIL…"

" These are the sort of warriors I despise, ones who use cowardly tricks, and have no pride! They have no place in this ring! I'LL RID OF THEM! " Vegeta vowed to himself as he screamed to the heavens.

He catched the attention of many of the other warriors, along with the Supreme Kai's and Gods of Destruction, who noticed Vegeta's level of energy. It was just like Goku's during his fight with Top days before this tournament.

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"

The wind pressure flowed through the ring, breaking small rocks, and catching many off guard, as Yaoyorozu

The Universe 2 duo were suddenly surprised to hear Vegeta scream, before changing his hair and eye color, as well as his aura. Transforming into a Super Saiyan God, he released divine energy was enough to break Sunny's hair around him.

"It's red now?" Sunny wondered, stepping back.

"To think I had to resort this form to defeat the likes of you." Vegeta pointed at Toriko. "You'll be the first warrior of your universe to be eliminated, and I'll make sure of that."

"TORIKO, WARNING! HE'S GOTTEN MORE STRONGER THAN YOU THINK!" Pell warned, and Toriko and Sunny took it to heart.

Suddenly directing his hands towards the duo, Vegeta generated two energy rays, which hit the two warriors. The two found themselves thrown away, while Vegeta flew to rush towards Toriko. Seeing him above him, Toriko created a multitude of forks before throwing them at him.

"CANNON FORK!"

However, compared to earlier, Vegeta let himself run into the forks and decimated them with a single movement of his arms to find himself in front of Toriko.

"Disappear."

Kicking Toriko's stomach, he crushed Toriko against the arena floor and coughed up blood. Only able to put a hand on his stomach, Toriko then saw Vegeta rise into the air before putting his hands behind him.

"GALICK GUN!"

Seeing then a strong beam of light rush on him, Toriko hurried to get up before counterattacking.

"INFINITE NAIL PUNCH!"

Thus striking Vegeta's attack, Toriko tried to repel it. However, seeing Vegeta's attack continue to pounce on him, Toriko cried out to his teammates.

"COCO! SUNNY!"

Then, the energy beam struck him and detonated the area, ejecting Toriko towards the void. Watching him next, Vegeta suddenly created as energetic shield to protect himself from an attack.

"POISON RIFLE!"

Seeing drops of poison touch his barrier, Vegeta turned to see Coco staring at him.

"MACHINE GUN POISON!"

Creating ki-blats, Vegeta managed to destroy Coco's projectiles, before targeting him. Running away, Coco hid behind some rocks. Attacking them for a few moments, Vegeta noticed that the fighter was acting strangely. He was not trying to fight, but to flee. He decided to have it act as a diversion.

"What is he doing?"

Then suddenly, noticing that the Grand Minister had not announced Toriko's elimination, Vegeta turned to see Sunny, on the edge of the pitch, having managed to grab Toriko with his hair and pull him back to the pitch.

"JUST FALL OFF ALREADY!" Vegeta growled, directing his hand towards them.

Seeing him attack them with a ball of energy, Sunny used his hair to block the attack before detonating it. Taking advantage of the smoke generated by the explosion, the duo then fled, just like Coco.

"Hey, Toriko!" Cried Sunny. "Can I know what's gotten into you? Why haven't you been serious about this guy?!"

"At the beginning, I thought that we could fight it together." Confessed his friend. " Then he beat me without my being able to use my new technique! But don't worry! Next time, I won't be going so easy on anyone, especially those so-called Saiyans!"


Jumping from rock to rock, Speed-o'-Sound Sonic finally came to a halt, seeing the younger sister of Akame in front of him, sword in hand. Unsheathing his own sword, Sonic blocked Kurome's, before kicking her in the stomach to make her recoil. Then, feeling Koro's huge figure behind him, the speedster suddenly disappeared. Closing his huge jaws, the huge Imperial Arms was surprised to feel his teeth touching nothing.

Appearing behind the Imperial Arms, Sonic had a childish smile on his face and put his sword back into its scabbard. Immediately, two huge gashes appeared on Koro's face, gouging out his eyes.

Hearing him scream in pain, Sonic grew curious.

"You are a weapon and yet you feel pain? It's funny."

Hearing bangs behind him, he saw Seryu shoot him with two guns. Immediately, he launched a shuriken, which exploded upon hitting Seryu's projectiles.

Wanting to take advantage of the smoke, the former Jaegers soldier ran towards the ninja with the intent to deal him a powerful punch. Hearing her coming, Sonic dodged his opponent without a problem, before lifting his foot to break her arm. However, he was surprised when he felt his foot hit metal.

"Huh ? That's not normal." he wondered, seeing that Seryu's hand was made of metal. "A bionic arm? Are you supposed to be a cyborg?"

"You could say that! KORO: NUMBER 2!"

Immediately Sonic saw Koro rushing at him. Surprised to see that the animal's eyes had healed, the ninja drew his sword to decapitate him. However, to his amazement, he saw the animal leap over him before biting his own mistress.

Not knowing what to say, Sonic saw Koro start to chew on Seryu's upper body. Then, finally, the teigu pulled Seryu's body out of his mouth. Covered with saliva, the former soldier didn't have the slightest bite on her. Instead, her shoulders now featured four rocket launchers.

"What is that?"

"LET'S GO!" Seryu cried, as the first rocket hit Sonic.

Using his speed, Sonic dodged it but he positioned his arm in front of his face in order to protect it from the debris. Taking advantage of this, Kurome positioned herself behind his back and shook his sword. Seeing her, at the last second, Sonic threw himself aside. Nevertheless, Kurome managed to cut his cheek.

"You little …"

"I'm not through yet." Seryu cried, launching her other rockets.

Running then, Kurome mingled with the rockets and moved towards Sonic as well.

"We'll get you eventually! You won't be able to avoid all these attacks."

Then ceasing to act like a child, Sonic decided to get serious. His eyes then moved in all directions, as he seemed to be able to observe all the rockets as well as Kurome's movements among them.

Finally, flexing his legs, he clenched his sword in his hand, before displaying a morbid smile. The same he displayed when he wanted to kill someone at all costs. Then, when the first rocket was about to hit him, he disappeared.

Hearing a strange noise, Kurome saw a rocket next to her being cut in half. Then, the rocket in front of her met the same fate.

Then another one.

And another one.

Within moments, all of the missiles were cut in half. Feeling Sonic's aura, Kurome felt like he could feel him running around her, not being able to see him. Every now and then, she could spot a black figure near her. However, she was unable to touch him.

Nevertheless, Sonic ended up sparing her. It wasn't Kurome that interested Sonic. Running straight towards Seryu, he cried out.

"I like the look in your eyes," Affirmed the ninja. "It shows that you're just like me! You like to kill people, don't you?"

"SHUT UP!" Seryu roared, opening her mouth.

Seeing the tip of a gun stick out of her mouth, Sonic kicked Seryu's chin hard with his knee. He hit her so hard that Seryu's teeth managed to cut the tip of the gun. Feeling her teeth crack, the poor girl put her hands over her mouth, while Sonic took the opportunity to kick her in the stomach.

Seeing her fall back, he wanted to know.

"Now then, should I eliminate you or do you have something better to offer me?"

At that moment, he heard Kurome and Koro run towards him.

"This resistance is starting to annoy me," The ninja asserted, drawing his sword.

However, the air cracked at that moment. Before the impression that every bone in his body was cracking, Sonic spat blood before being rejected.

"What…?" Kurome wondered.

"ZEHAHAHA!"

Standing again, Teach was the one who had just brought Sonic to the ground. Seeing him on his feet, Kurome could only be surprised when she saw no trace of the wound she had just inflicted on him. Yet, she was sure she saw him bleed.

"This fight was very interesting," Affirmed Teach. "How about I show you the power of a member of the Four Emperors?"

Immediately, darkness came out of his body and began to cover this area of the arena.

"I'm not like the others who take their time and savor their prey ! I'M SENDING YOU TO THE DEPTHS OF HELL!"

Seeing the ground turn black, as the rocks sucked in, Kurome cried out.

"Seryu! We have to go now!"

Seeing her leave, Seryu immediately hissed. Koro rushed towards her, before grabbing her gently in his jaws, before following Kurome.

Seeing them flee, Teach amused himself by bombarding them with his stones. Seeing them nonetheless, avoiding them and managing to escape, Teach ceased his attack before finally sitting down. He wasn't going to waste his time chasing them.

If his opponents were reckless enough to come and face him, he would wait for them quietly.


Safe behind a large boulder, Seryu surveyed the surroundings, while Koro was perched on her shoulders.

"That's good! The ninja and the man with the beard didn't follow us."

Sitting behind her, Kurome finally asserted.

"I tried to see my power by fighting without the power of my Imperial Arms, but I guess I was overwhelmed no problem."

"What are we doing now?"

"We break up!" Kurome asserted. "Listen to me carefully, you might not agree with me, but I have an idea."

"Well, spit it out!" Seryu exclaimed.

"It's time for me to bring my dolls and have them attack a lot of the other fighters! As soon as they are destroyed and I get eliminated, you'll take care of the rest. Got it?"

Listening to her, Seryu nodded before leaving. Seeing her go, Kurome finally grabbed her sword, before planting it on the ground.
