Chapter 128

We stopped talking and continued watching the fight between the Destroyers, however after a while the Destroyers started dropping one by one, including the clown guy, till it was just an injured Beerus and rat-looking guy, though I'm pretty sure the only reason the clown guy didn't make it to the end was because he gave up halfway through.

One cool thing that happened in the middle of the fight was that an elephant-looking Destroyer let out a loud roar, that caused everyone including me to get stunned and unable to move, though I managed to shake it off quickly, it still surprised me at the sheer volume of his voice.

Zeno-"I don't like it, I can't see and they're too noisy."

When the decisive battle between Beerus and the rat-looking Destroyer was about to take place, the grand priest stopped the fight.

Grand Priest-"Lord Zeno isn't enjoying the fight as it's too intense, so all Destroyers will be disqualified from the tournament."

The moment the Grand priest announced that all the Destroyers looked relieved before their respective angles went down and healed them all, once they were fully healed they all returned back to their floating stands and waited for Zeno's judgment.

Zeno1-"I didn't enjoy it, If the tournament's going to be like this let's just skip it and erase the universes."

When we heard what Zeno said, everyone got frightened including me as I don't remember any of this ever happening in the anime, and I would like to believe that I would remember something important like this.

Sage-'DAMMIT! I don't remember this ever happening, did this even happen!? Maybe it happened in the manga, I only read the manga after the TOP ended, FUCK, it doesn't matter, what matters now is how the hell are we going to change Zeno's mind! Because if he decided to erase the universe right now, I won't have enough time to go back to my timeline!'

Seeing how everyone was being fearful and keeping quiet, I was about to give a suggestion of allowing the mortals to fight, since if I'm going to be erased you damn well know I ain't just going to keep quiet about it, though from the warning that I feel from my instincts I don't know if Zeno could even erase my soul, considering it was bathed in that being's energy. But before I could speak, a voice beat me to the punch, and the moment I heard the voice, I almost lost all my reasoning and charged from where he sounded out from, as the being the voice belonged to was Mira.

Mira-"How about allowing mortals to fight?"

Sage-'MIRA!?, I'LL KILL HIM!!'

I was barely able to keep myself from launching myself toward him, but I knew doing so would most likely get myself erased by Zeno, and besides getting revenge on Mira isn't my objective, it was saving my daughter, so although I was completely furious I didn't move an inch, I just stood there staring at Mira.

Zeno-"Mortals? Are mortals better?"

Grand priest-"Mortals are much weaker than Destroyers, which means you would be able to follow their movements as they fight, it would be like the fight between Universe 6 and 7."

Zeno-"I didn't watch the tournament."

Grand Priest-"There are currently a few mortals here, would you like them to give you a demonstration?"

Zeno1-"Yeah, show us the fight!"

Grand Priest-"Well then, let's have Toppo fight and one of the mortals from universe 7 considering the mortal from your universe started all this."

His words caused everyone to look at us, or mainly Beerus in anger, before scoffing and focusing back on the arena that Toppo just landed on.

I was too absorbed in staring at Mira that I didn't even react when Beerus touched me for a few seconds before he hit me on the back of the head, which caused me to almost attack him, but I stopped myself as I realized where we were at.

Beerus-"Stop just standing there and go fight him!"

I didn't even bother responding, I just looked at Beerus before flying to the arena as I wasn't in the mood to argue with him about fighting a weakling like Toppo. Though when I landed on the arena I wasn't paying that much attention to Toppo, instead I stayed focused on Mira who was on the female destroyer floating stand while wearing a dark cape, which only allowed me to see his mouth.

Grand Priest-"Begin!"

Only when the Grand Priest shouted did I shift my eyes onto Toppo who came charging right at me, even though I was now paying attention to Toppo, most of my senses were still focused on Mira.

Toppo-"So you finally decided to look at me!"

Blocking a punch from Toppo, I didn't respond and instead retaliated with a punch hitting him in the stomach, though as I had my bracers on while suppressing my ki, the attack didn't do much other than force him to slide a few meters away as he managed to tap into his god ki just in time.

Toppo didn't waste any time and launched himself right back at me, and once he closed in we started fighting with neither one of us backing down, though as the fight continued Toppo was starting to get injured and on the other hand none of Toppo's attacks were doing any damage to me whatsoever. Toppo wasn't one to ignore such obvious signs of holding back with how serious he is, so he flashed away, appearing a few meters in front of me.

Toppo-"Stop hiding your power and fight me seriously!"

Looking at him, my eyes narrowed before I stopped suppressing my power, and when I did so my ki exploded outward pushing Toppo to the edge of the arena before he managed to stop himself. Though his actions of stopping himself were for nothing as I flashed right in front of him and punched him in the stomach before throwing him outside the arena, resulting in my win.

Grand Priest-"Toppo has fallen out of the ring, Sage is the winner!"

Sage-"Tch, pathetic."

I was about to fly back to my stand but I heard Toppo speak to me.

Toppo-"You're powerful Sage, but don't think I'm the strongest, in my universe, there is someone still stronger than me, his nam-"

Sage-"Will you shut up! And I know who you're talking about, that fool named Jiren, but let me tell you something you frog in the well, Jiren's not the only mortal with power surpassing that of the Destroyers."

When I finished talking, I saw a look of absolute surprise on his face as he never mentioned Jirens name nor talked about his power, yet I already knew everything, and that caused him to get slightly nervous, as to already know about Jirens power, yet not even looking and sounding scared meant that either I was still massively hiding my power or someone from my universe has power rivaling Jirens.
