Universe 7’s spectator area.
The instant this Power of Destruction erupted, God of Destruction Beerus and Angel Whis immediately turned their attention toward it.
They personally witnessed the process of Toppo transforming into a God of Destruction.
“The power of Hakai… No wonder that guy is so powerful. So he’s the candidate for God of Destruction personally chosen by Belmod! That brat Goku is in trouble this time.” Beerus frowned slightly, beginning to worry about Goku’s current predicament.
Before using the power of Hakai, Toppo was no match for Goku. However, after activating the power of Hakai, it was difficult to say how the battle would end.
Toppo was definitely not the kind of God of Destruction candidate who could be defeated in just a few moves.
“Facing the power of Hakai head-on is an opportunity for Goku to grow. It all depends on whether Goku can seize this opportunity,” Whis said, his perspective completely different from Beerus’s.
In his opinion, although Toppo had mastered Hakai, his proficiency in it was still far inferior to Talot and the current Gods of Destruction. He was unable to bring out the true power of Hakai.
Moreover, the fact that someone who had always upheld justice only managed to grasp the power of Hakai after abandoning his beliefs showed that he had a profound misunderstanding of the power of Hakai.
The power of a God of Destruction was neither evil nor righteous.
As long as Toppo failed to understand this, he would never be able to defeat Goku.
…
Meanwhile, on Universe 11’s side.
“It seems Toppo has finally achieved his initial awakening, Lord Belmod.”
“Toppo, you’ve finally made up your mind to use that power.”
“The battle over there has become quite interesting too.”
Supreme Kai Khai, God of Destruction Belmod, and Angel Marcarita spoke one after another.
As the second most important figure in Universe 11, Toppo had been attracting considerable attention from the very beginning.
With Jiren currently unable to break away from his battle, Universe 11’s hopes of victory now rested on Toppo’s shoulders.
…
In the arena.
Talot turned his gaze toward the location where Toppo had awakened.
“So you’ve already made up your mind to use the power of Hakai? Unfortunately, even if you’ve awakened the power of a God of Destruction, you’re still insignificant.” Talot carefully sensed Toppo’s Power of Destruction and shook his head in disappointment.
Hakai of this level was far too weak. It hadn’t even reached the Tenth Dimension and was roughly on the same level as Goku’s Super Saiyan Blue Evolved.
Ultimately, it was because Toppo had misunderstood Hakai and was unable to unleash the true power of Hakai.
Soon, Talot withdrew his attention and turned his gaze toward a damaged corner of the arena.
Within the thick smoke, a flash of deep-crimson flames appeared, instantly dispersing all the smoke.
Jiren appeared once again.
Although he had been struck directly by Talot’s finishing move, it hadn’t affected him in the slightest.
Instead, this setback had made Jiren take the battle even more seriously.
“Finally decided to come out,” Talot said with a smile.
To Jiren, that smile seemed like an expression of contempt toward him.
‘RUMBLE~~~!!!’
A deep, fiery light erupted from Jiren’s eyes.
The next second, a devastating pillar of fiery energy suddenly erupted from the ground, its terrifying power stirring the chaos as though it intended to tear the vast Null Realm apart on the spot.
Sensing this tremendous surge in Ki, Talot’s lips curled into a smirk, and the fighting spirit in his eyes grew even more intense.
【Jiren in this timeline is considerably stronger than I anticipated.】 Talot thought to himself.
The greater the strength Jiren displayed, the more excited he became.
Immediately afterward, the towering pillar of crimson flames dissipated, revealing Jiren’s tall, muscular figure once again. On the surface, he appeared completely unchanged, but judging by the intensity of his aura, Jiren’s Ki had now reached an absurd level, powerful enough to completely suppress anyone below the Tenth Dimension.
After restraining all the aura within his body, Jiren leaped forward and landed twenty meters in front of Talot. The two now stood on the same platform, confronting each other once again.
Talot remained completely calm, crossing his arms over his chest, still displaying that relaxed, effortless demeanor of someone who had everything under control.
This Ki was powerful, but it was still far from enough to defeat him.
…
On the battlefield between Goku and Toppo.
Naturally, both of them had noticed what was happening on the other battlefield.
【That Jiren’s Ki is really ridiculous! But Talot’s Ki has been above his from beginning to end. Damn it!! I really want to fight that Jiren!】 Goku was deeply captivated by Jiren’s strength, to the point that he even neglected Toppo, who had transformed into a God of Destruction right in front of him.
In his opinion, Toppo was no longer worth much attention. Even after transforming into a God of Destruction, his strength was still nothing particularly remarkable.
Toppo, who had transformed into a God of Destruction, naturally noticed Goku’s distraction.
Anger surged within him. He had already transformed into a God of Destruction, yet Goku still dared to underestimate him. He had to make Goku pay the price!
“Goku, your opponent is me!!!” A deep light flashed through Toppo’s eyes as he brought his palms together, gathering the power of destruction between them.
In an instant, a Sphere of Destruction containing ultimate destructive power took shape.
Sensing the destructive power contained within the energy sphere, Goku immediately snapped back to his senses and similarly assumed the stance for the Kamehameha.
“Toppo, I have to admit that you’re indeed very strong, but no matter how strong you become, I’m still above you! Come on, let’s settle this with one move!!” A sharp gleam flashed through Goku’s eyes. This time, he wouldn’t hold back anymore. He channeled his power at full output, gathering energy between his palms to form the Kamehameha.
“Hakai~~!!!” Toppo simply continued to unleash Hakai.
In an instant, the deep-blue energy beam collided with the Sphere of Destruction.
The collision between the two forms of God Ki caused the space in this region to distort, and even the surrounding chaos underwent a dramatic change.
Goku’s finishing move and Toppo’s Sphere of Destruction reached a stalemate, with neither side able to gain the upper hand!
On the surface, they appeared evenly matched, but in reality, Toppo’s Power of Destruction held a slight advantage.
After all, it was the power belonging to a God of Destruction. Although Toppo’s mastery of Hakai was not particularly advanced, the Power of Destruction still stood above ordinary God Ki.
