Chapter 29: The Tournament of Power Fifteen

"The ten warriors from Universe Six have all fallen off the arena, not a single one remains, so Universe Six is about to be erased!" the Grand Priest announced loudly.

Upon hearing that Universe Six would be erased, Champa panicked and turned to Vados, only to find her wiping away tears.

While Champa felt moved, Vados picked up her angel staff and walked over to Universe Seven, sitting directly beside Whis.

Champa was left speechless; his team was not even out yet!

Since the fact of their elimination could not be changed, facing impending doom, Champa seemed to let go completely. He made a face at Beerus and said, "Goodbye, my brother."

As Zeno extended his tiny hand and squeezed tightly, Universe Six disappeared from the stands.

The situation was now quite clear: only two universes remained on the arena—Universe Seven and Universe Eleven.

Universe Seven still had four fighters left, while Universe Eleven had only Jiren remaining.

Jiren's strength was indeed exceptionally powerful, but the remaining fighters from Universe Seven were no weaklings either; two could awaken Ultra Instinct, and one had mastery over destruction energy.

Only Jiren might still be able to defeat one opponent, but now facing three experts, could he still win?

At that moment, Jiren was focused solely on battling Vegeta, who wielded destruction energy.

Vegeta's destruction energy did not inflict significant damage on Jiren; as expected of a super warrior comparable to a God of Destruction, Jiren showed no signs of being affected by the destructive force.

Instead, under Jiren's overwhelming power, Vegeta was being pushed back relentlessly.

Jiren unleashed a powerful blow that sent Vegeta flying. Just as Jiren aimed to knock Vegeta out of the arena, John Doe intervened again and engaged Jiren in battle.

This time John Doe did not use Ultra Instinct because he had already exhausted much of his stamina in previous fights against Jiren and Vegeta. Using Ultra Instinct again would likely lead to rapid exhaustion.

Thus, John Doe could only fight Jiren in Super Saiyan Blue form. Fortunately, Jiren's stamina had also been severely depleted during his earlier battles with John Doe and Vegeta and was no longer at peak condition.

After a fierce battle between them, Goku's stamina recovered significantly, allowing him to step in and take Jiren's attacks once more.

Now it was a rotation of John Doe, Goku, and Vegeta taking turns battling Jiren.

Seeing that Jiren could not knock off the remaining fighters from Universe Seven, the Destroyer God shouted from the stands: "Despicable! Universe Seven is so shameless; you three are ganging up on our Jiren! Have you no shame?!"

Beerus shouted back: "The rules of the Tournament of Power are meant for chaos! This was personally set by Zeno and the Grand Priest! It's already fair that our fighters aren't all attacking at once!"

Zeno heard the conversation between the two Destroyers and greatly approved of Beerus's words. For them, fairness in competition was not important; what mattered most was how exciting the match was.

So both Zenos looked at the Destroyer God in shock. 

"Do you want to be erased?"

"Do you want to be erased?"

The words from both Zenos startled the Destroyer God and their Supreme Kai. They quickly apologized to Zeno and dared not speak again.

The fighter now battling Jiren on stage was Vegeta.

With just over two minutes left in the match, Jiren still struggled to defeat Universe Seven's fighters.

At this moment, the remaining warriors from both universes watched intently from their seats, their hearts racing with tension.

"Hah!" John Doe launched a powerful Kamehameha wave at Jiren. Having already ignited his true strength, Jiren did not wish to dodge; he simply raised his arm in front of him and charged towards John Doe while enduring the Kamehameha wave.

With a loud "bang," Jiren's fist connected with John Doe's cheek. However, John Doe managed to support himself with one hand and kicked Jiren in the head, sending him flying away.

Both fell onto the arena floor, gasping for breath.

The warriors from Universe Eleven panicked and cheered for Jiren. Toppo shouted loudly: "Jiren! What are you doing? Have you forgotten your purpose for entering this tournament? You want to revive your master; you want his approval! Are you really going to give up like this?"

Struggling to stand up from the arena floor, Jiren murmured: "Yes! I want to revive my master! I want his approval! I want him to know how strong I've become!"

After saying this, Jiren gathered every bit of remaining energy within him and declared to John Doe and others: "Let's settle this once and for all! Hah!"

A massive red energy wave shot towards John Doe and his companions.

John Doe, Goku, and Vegeta were also low on stamina; they could no longer transform into Super Saiyan forms and could only fire energy blasts at their normal strength towards Jiren.

The energy waves collided in mid-air, forming an energy sphere that alternated between moving toward John Doe's side and then back toward Jiren's side as they reached a stalemate.

At that moment, a purple energy wave suddenly joined in. The three turned around to see it was Frieza!

Frieza shouted loudly: "I'm not here to help you; I just don't want to be erased!"

With Frieza's unexpected assistance, they finally overpowered Jiren. The energy sphere began moving toward him.

Ultimately, it pressed down on Jiren's body and knocked him off the arena entirely.

Jiren then appeared among Universe Eleven's stands.

Looking at his teammates he said: "I'm sorry; I couldn't defeat them!"

Toppo replied: "It's okay; you did your best."

At this moment, the Grand Priest announced loudly: "All ten warriors from Universe Eleven have been eliminated without exception; thus Universe Eleven will be erased!"

The two Zenos raised their small hands and squeezed tightly. Suddenly a flash of white light appeared as all warriors from Universe Eleven—including their Supreme Kai and Destroyer God—vanished from sight.
