Dragon Ball: Collaborating with Frieza to Destroy Planet Vegeta

Chapter 221: The Strongest Fighters of Each Universe!

As everyone was observing one another, the Grand Priest and the Omni-King slowly appeared, instantly drawing everyone's attention.

The Grand Priest floated in front of them.

"All twelve universes are now assembled. I'll explain the rules for the preliminary matches, which are quite simple. The tournament will follow a one-on-one format."

"There's no time limit on the arena. Victory is achieved when the opponent admits defeat or is rendered unable to fight. In this preview tournament, there will be no penalties for losing."

"As for selecting the combatants, each match will involve randomly chosen universes, after which each universe's God of Destruction will choose a representative."

The Grand Priest explained the rules slowly.

Everyone held their breath, listening intently to the Grand Priest's instructions. They were relieved—without penalties for losing, the pressure wouldn't be too overwhelming.

It was a pure martial contest and a chance to learn more about their opponents.

The Tournament of Power was drawing near.

As everyone awaited the Grand Priest's next move, he focused his gaze forward, and a screen-like projection appeared.

The screen displayed a set of twelve numbers that started to randomly shuffle.

Aligned on each side were twelve numbers. When they stopped, the matching numbers determined which universes would face each other.

It was a fully randomized process.

The Grand Priest didn't delay any further. With a wave of his hand, the screen began spinning wildly.

The numbers on each side stopped at 9 and 7.

All the God of Destructions immediately looked toward the Ninth Universe and the Seventh Universe.

The opening match would be between these two universes.

"Ninth Universe and Seventh Universe, send up your chosen representative!"

As the Grand Priest's voice fell, both universes began selecting their fighters.

For the Ninth Universe, the choice was straightforward. They had only brought three participants, with no unnecessary companions joining them.

The Seventh Universe, however, was a different story…

Their small platform was packed, making it hard to tell who their fighters actually were.

Karl, Greta, and Axianna exchanged glances.

Naturally, they wouldn't let Mu Chuan go out for the warm-up. That left the choice between the three of them, and one of them would have to stay back.

They communicated silently through their expressions.

"Let me go!" Karl broke the silence.

"Since it's the first match, we need to showcase the spirit of our universe. We can't afford to be underestimated!"

The other two nodded in agreement. Karl was chosen because of his steady combat abilities, and he was known for his composure and prudence. He wouldn't make rash moves in battle, minimizing the risk of an early loss.

Mu Chuan patted Karl on the shoulder.

"Go out there and show your strength without hesitation. I believe in you, and this is a great opportunity to witness the strength of warriors from other universes. Cherish it—it could be a turning point for your abilities!"

Karl nodded, appreciating the chance. He knew he didn't have the same innate talent or power as their leader, but he could rely on hard work and determination to become formidable.

In the Seventh Universe, fighters were either too weak or entirely outmatched. Facing the strongest from other universes was an opportunity he couldn't pass up!

He took the challenge seriously.

As Karl ascended the stage, a figure from the Ninth Universe did the same.

It was a red-furred wolf, reminiscent of a scarlet wolf!

His name was Basil—the Ninth Universe's powerhouse!

With both fighters on the stage, the Grand Priest gave the command, and the battle began.

At the Grand Priest's word, Karl immediately transformed into a Super Saiyan 4. He didn't want to go through each transformation incrementally, as doing so wouldn't fully demonstrate his strongest power and would only drain his stamina.

That would be counterproductive.

He aimed to show his maximum power from the start.

A vast, imposing aura filled the air, drawing attention from everyone present.

Moments ago, he had appeared relatively weak, but a single transformation unleashed incredible strength. What kind of race could possess such abilities?

All the God of Destructions and the warriors from other universes watched in awe!

The Saiyans from the Sixth Universe were particularly struck by this scene. Their transformations were somewhat different from those of the Seventh Universe Saiyans.

Even their physical forms had distinct characteristics!

Saiyans from the Sixth Universe lacked tails, while those from the Seventh Universe retained them.

It was a subtle yet defining difference!

Witnessing this, the Saiyans from the Sixth Universe were taken aback.

"Cabba, is this the Saiyan from the Seventh Universe you mentioned? They truly are different; they seem fundamentally distinct from us!"

"Every Saiyan here has a tail, and their transformations differ from ours."

Caulifla watched Karl with a curious gaze.

Cabba, being kind-hearted, struggled with achieving the Super Saiyan transformation, but Caulifla had already mastered it.

However, her transformation still differed slightly from those in the Seventh Universe.

Seeing this piqued her curiosity.

Indeed, the transformations between the two universes' Saiyans were largely similar, yet Karl's leap to the fourth stage made the Seventh Universe's Saiyans appear slightly different.

Cabba understood well that the Seventh Universe's Saiyans shared some commonalities with their own.

He quickly explained.

Caulifla listened intently, her interest deepening.

"So, there's an even higher level of transformation? Doesn't that mean we can also try it? If we could reach a more advanced transformation, our power would increase dramatically!"

She immediately grasped the concept. Given their existing strength, achieving a higher transformation would certainly enhance their power.

The mere thought was thrilling!

Both of them kept their eyes glued to the action, eager to observe any unique characteristics of the Seventh Universe's Saiyans, hoping to find something they could emulate.
