Backing up while dodging Henter's sneak attacks, Krillin began to notice he was dangerously close to the edge.

"GET AWAY FROM THAT EDGE NOW, BALDY!" Beerus' voice roared, to the annoyance of his fellow Kais. "IF YOU LOSE IN SUCH A MISERABLE WAY, I'LL ERASE YOU MYSELF! ARE WE CLEAR!?"

Swallowing at the thought to suffer his wrath, Krillin focused his energy to kick Henter. Jumping back to dodge it, the doll finally saw a luminous disc appear in the bald man's hand, which he hastened to throw, in triplicate.

"Right, this should do it!" Krillin then launched his three discs, dubbing the attack as the Triple Kienzan. But like a contortionist, Henter flexed his chest as if it had no spine. Letting his chest flex back, Krillin saw his genius attack pass above of puppet's face.

"Well, I'm not done yet!" Krillin retorted, manipulating his attacks, so that they advanced towards the puppet again.

Seeing this, the corpse put it's back in place, before running towards Krillin, with knives in hand, while wanting to take advantage of him being at the edge of the field.

"Oh no, you don't!" Krillin retorted, realizing what he was going to do. "KAMEHAMEHAAAAAAAA!"

Seeing his energy wave rushing over him, Henter leapt into the air, dodging him just in time.

"Too slow, baldy," the puppet chuckled. However, his smile disappeared the instant a Destructo Disc finally sliced his back, at his pelvis. Cut in half then, he felt his two parts fall, while hearing Krillin assert.

"If you don't have a good strategy, it's gonna be almost impossible to win."

Enraged, Henter suddenly let himself land on his hands. Then, moving upside down, he literally managed to run, as several knives stuck out between his fingers.

Yet Krillin didn't even have to move to finish it. Indeed, appearing above the puppet, his lovely wife, Android 18 fell on it, and crushed its skull so violently that its head was reduced to pulp. With only the top of a chest left of him, Henter moved a hand slightly, before finally dropping it to the ground, and dying for good.

"Whew," sighed Krillin. "Even though he was just a corpse, he was strong."

"Don't let your guard down," Eighteen immediately warned him. "Because if you had trouble against him, then think about the power of the other fighters in this tournament. "

"She's right," a voice chuckled. Turning instantly, the two warriors could see Frost in front of them, smiling at them with a hint of mockery.

"You!" Krillin exclaimed, pointing at him. "You're that Frieza lookalike!"

"Frost will suffice," assured the lookalike of Frieza. "And even then it doesn't matter."

Firing a singular finger beam from his index finger in the direction of Krillin, he could see Android Eighteen place in front of her husband is deflected the trajectory of the attack with a movement of the hand. Then running towards Frost, she started the beginning of a punching fight, which Frost was able to follow without difficulty.

" Oh ? I am surprised ! You weren't a fighter in the last tournament, and yet you have extraordinary strength ! I admit it. "

" Shut up and focus on the fight. "

Only smiling at her, Frost still had to put his hand behind his back, to block a kick from Krillin.

"You?"

"It's a battle royale! '' Said the bald. '' So don't be surprised to have several opponents at the same time."

Grunting Frost then found himself forced to fight Krillin and Android 18. Blocking each of their blows, before attempting a counterattack, he managed to spin around and use his tail to push Krillin back.

Unfortunately, taking advantage of an opening, Eighteen kicked him in the chin, causing him to fly into the air.

"DISAPPEAR!" she then roared, throwing an energy beam at him.

Simply smiling, seeing the attack rush at him, Frost stopped hiding his real power and, while uttering a cry, ended up hitting the energy ball with his hand. Grimacing at first, from the effort, he finally ejected it, and sent it straight back at Krillin.

Finding himself at the edge of the field again, the warrior, astonished by Frost's gesture, could only widen his eyes when he saw the attack rush at him.

"KRILLIN, GET OUT OF THE WAY!" His wife frantically ordered him.

Too late. Hit hard by the attack, Krillin could only scream, before feeling himself fall backwards, and find himself falling into the depths of the void.

"NOOO!" Beerus' voice echoed across the void, all while Krillin appeared on the stands, very ashamed with himself. It seemed carelessness was his greatest foe back in the ring.

" Krillin of the Seventh Universe has been eliminated."

"Geez, way to blow it big time! Shame on you, Curly!" Beerus exclaimed at the monk, who looked up to the Destroyer. "Yeah, it's still Krillin, sir."

"I only learn the names of winners." His eyes narrowed as his glare sunk harder into Krillin's own gaze. "I-I'M SORRY! YOU CAN CALL ME WHATEVER YOU LIKE!"

"You performed admirably out there Krillin," the Supreme Kai commented, his glare not intense as Beerus' but still intimidating to the likes of the dwarf. "I'm not too upset about your loss."

"Hey, you should tell that to your face!" Krillin retorted, as Beerus spoke again. "Well, no sense dwelling on it, what's done is done. You might as well cheer extra loud, that's literally all you can do at this point."

"Yeah." Krillin was still feeling very ashamed of himself, while looking down at his wife.

" I'm sorry guys, my bad. now you'll have to fight even harder 'cause of me. "

"Hahahaha!" Frost laughed immediately. "What an imbecile! And the funniest thing is knowing that it is the attack of his own comrade that is the cause of his loss. "

Calming himself down nonetheless, he had to fold his arms, to block a violent punch from 18, who was far from happy with Krillin's defeat.

'' You... I'll get you out of the arena immediately. "

Charging towards him again but now making her attacks stronger, this time she put Frost in real trouble, while it was extremely difficult for him to have enough space to reply.

"Dirty bitch!" he roared, as he found himself, in turn, at the edge of the arena.

Not needing to respond to this insult, 18 only reached out to him, as she began to release an energy blast.

'' SAYONARA !

However, heading in her direction, a death beam hitted her attack, allowing Frost to be spared.

"What?" the two warriors wondered.

" Ohohohoh !" Frieza's voice chuckled, as he appeared in front of Frost. "Isn't this a spectacle to behold?! You seem to be having some trouble with a robot."

"It's nothing," Frost assured him immediately. "I still haven't revealed my true power to anyone yet."

Staring at Frieza, Android 18 questioned him.

"Are you just going to stand there or are you gonna get him out of here?"

"Let us say I found something more worthy elsewhere! According to my new partner, your two universes have been fighting recently! And from what I was able to understand, you were able to win with the intervention of a warrior who is not even in our team! Therefore, if a team is more powerful than yours, I am ready to partner with them. "

Showing a wicked smile, Frieza declared.

''I have decided to become the eleventh member of Universe 6.''

''What? ''

"FRIEZA!" Beerus called him immediately. "IF YOU DON'T HELP OUT YOUR TEAMMATE NOW, I WILL STRIKE YOU WHERE YOU STAND!"

Throwing him a simple sly smile, Frieza eventually nodded at Frost. Immediately, his partner shot an energy ball towards the ground and the explosion created a cloud of smoke able to hide the two friends.

Finally, when the smoke cleared, 18 noticed that the duo had disappeared.

"Those cowardly bastards!" she snarled.

'' CHAMPA! ''Beerus shouted, turning to his brother. '' Bastard! I knew you would do something this vicious. ''

''Hey, I didn't do anything. '' Retorted the other god, who was as surprised as him. ''It's not my fault if your fighters don't know loyalty. ''

Then, looking thoughtful, Champa ended up smiling.

''But it doesn't matter! This situation suits me! With Frieza on our side, we are sure to win. ''

''Champa-sama... are you really sure you want to trust a person who didn't hesitate to betray his universe? '' Vados asked.

''Bakayaro! It's normal that he wants to be part of our universe! It's the best! He must understand that this is his only chance to survive. ''

Then shouting towards the field, he affirmed.

Frieza, make us win and I promise to resurrect you. ''

Eventually sitting down, Beerus mumbled.

"Whis, remind me to destroy Frieza after this is all over."

Jumping to keep his feet from being frozen, Budo then used his lightning to block flames. Still able to maintain his composure, Budo stared at Shoto who used both his fiery and ice powers to fight him. And just like Budo, Shoto kept a stoic face.

" Impressive, you have the powers of Bols-san and Esdeath within you! Still, I don't feel anything bad about you! May I ask you why you are participating in this tournament? "

" To save my universe, of course. "

" Ah yes ? And if you win the Dragon Balls, what wish would you like to make? "

" No idea ! On earth, there is an expression which says that one cannot sell the skin of the bear before having killed it! In short, I would think about my wish once I won! Not before."

" Nice mentality. " Affirmed Budo. " I know some who could have taken an example from your maturity! Really, many would have liked never to be in your place, forced to fight me. "

" DARK SHADOWS ! "

Turning around then, Budo saw Tokoyami concentrating. Seeming to make Dark Shadows grow taller, he let the latter grow to a colossal size.

" Let's go. "

"I'm going to crush it ! ''

Attempting to flatten the general against the ground, Dark Shadow saw the man turn towards him, while creating an electric sphere. Hitting Dark Shadows' hand, the attack exploded and gave off a bright light.

" I understood your weak point. " Budo assured. " You are sensitive to light. "

Yet to his surprise, he saw Dark Shadows unharmed and the black entity crushed him under his huge hand.

" What ? " Budo wondered, trying to free himself.

" It's right that the light is our weak point. " Confessed Tokoyami. " However, our years of training have allowed us to become more resistant against it! If you really want to infect us, increase the intensity of your lightning light, if you can. "

Simply growling, Budo shrugged all over the place before finally to release an of his arm. Directing his hand towards tokoyami, he charged his teigu with electricity before to attack him.

However, before he could attack, Budo feels his hand stop moving before finding itself completely frozen.

" What … ? "

" We, Universe 12, know very well that individually we are surely weaker than most fighters in this arena. " Shoto remarked, positioning himself next to Tokoyami.

" As a result, we have more confidence in our teamwork! DARK SHADOWS ! "

Instantly uttering a huge cry, his sidekick raised his huge arm in the air before throwing Budo towards the void. However, before being able to finalize his gesture, Tokoyami's creation finally let out a howl in agony, as a strong light lit his face.

" KAMIGAMI NO MOMOKUNA HIKARI ! "

Immediately, as the light intensified, Dark Shadows let go of Budo before putting his arms in front of his face to hide his eyes from the light.

" That … ? " Tokoyami wondered.

Suddenly, Shoto stepped in front of him, before creating a shield of ice. Hitting him violently, Susanoo nevertheless found himself blocked, while his club only managed to destroy half the shield.

Recognizing him, Shoto widened his gaze, before yelling.

" Tokoyami! Behind us ! "

Turning instantly, Tokoyami could see Najenda behind them. Her fist pointed in their direction, she propelled her arm to grab hold of Shoto. However, her metal fist was crushed under Tokoyami's foot who managed to stop it.

" Tsss. " Cried the crow man. " It's true that Universe 9 has strange weapons. "

" We must be wary of her and the girl wih the dog . " Shoto asserted. " Whether it is one or the other, they will always be two to attack us. "

For his part, getting up, Budo concentrated his energy in his arm and managed to break the ice thanks to his lightning. Then staring at Dark Shadows who still had his hands covering his eyes, Budo used his teigu to fly away. Finding himself on top of the black creature, Budo then formed a huge ball of lightning in his arms before directing it towards Dak Shadows.

" THUNDER ULTIMATE BANG ! "

Opening one eye, Dark Shadows could only be astonished when he saw the attack rush at him. Exploding, the electric ball disintegrated a large part of the creature who could only scream before returning to Tokoyami.

Feeling his sidekick take refuge in his body, the raven boy then saw Budo walking towards them, while Najenda was next to Susanoo.

'' What if we show them some of your power, Suu? " Najenda asked him.

"No problem. "

" They are mine. " Budo retorted, letting his thunder surround him.

Seeing this, Shoto looked at Tokoyamai before asserting.

" We know enough about them! We leave ? "

" We leave. " Tokoyami asserted.

Immediately, the crow man let himself be surrounded by his darkness which formed a protection. Once he was protected, Shoto focused his energy to create flames around him, which formed a huge pillar of fire. Feeling a strong heat, their opponents retreated a little.

Then the attack ceased in an instant. And as soon as the flames disappeared, the trio saw Tokoyami flying away, carrying Shoto in his arms.

'' Shall we follow them, Boss ? " Susanoo questioned.

" No, let's leave them. " Najenda retorted. " They will surely return to their team members. "

Seeing Budo leaving, Najenda questioned him.

" Not even a "thank you"? "

" I could have defeated them alone. "

" Oh ? Wasn't it you who told us that we had to rely on our comrades to help each other? Come on, Budo! I thought you had matured since your death! Unless you don't want me to cry about the fact that we will never see each other again after the tournament is over! Could you say thank you to Enma for having among my comrades to go to paradise? "

" Grrr ! Shut-up. "

However, as he left, Susanoo thought he heard him mumble what sounded like a "thank you".
