The Tournament of Power 21/27

Jayr POV - Dragon Ball Universe, Null Realm - Age 780

With the elimination of the Namekians, Pilina and Saonel, the last fighters of the 6th Universe, the Great Minister officially announces, "All the contestants of the 6th Universe have been knocked out. The 6th Universe Team is hereby defeated. Thus, by the rules, our 6th Universe, will now be erased." which makes the Zenos happily exclaim in perfect sync.

""'Kay! Ha, ha, ha!""

The Zenos raise their hands and charge twin blue spheres of energy in their hands that are going to be used to erase the 6th Universe from existence while sitting from afar next to her brother, Whis, Vados tearfully bids farewell to Champa with a bow, "Oh dear, how can this be? This is no longer some well-meaning joke or light-hearted rebuke. I really must say farewell to Champa-sama. Oh, I can barely take it!" Which makes an upset Champa yell, "Oh, come on! At least wait till we're gone to move over!"

At the same time, the defeated Pilina asks a nearby Caulifla, "So what's wrong? Weren't you gonna 'kick our asses,' Caulifla?" which makes the Saiyan woman chuckle and reply, "Heh. After seeing how hard you fought, it feels wrong to cut ya down."

Hearing that, both Saonel and Pilina also chuckle, but then Caulifla adds, "But... A promise is still a promise, right?" which makes them exclaim, ""UH!?""

Caulifla then transforms into Super Saiyan and starts to chase them around with the intent of beating them up and keeping her promise.

"Hey! Ease off, we're injured!"

"We've already been beaten up by that other Saiyan pretty badly! We literally still have holes in our bodies!"

"Don't worry, I'll just plug 'em up with my fists!"

A resigned Fuwa calmly watches their back and forth before he yawns and comments, "I guess this is our destiny," while Caulifla continues to chase the Namekians and yells, "You're like a planet full of warriors! What's your excuse?"

Seeing that, Champa takes a deep breath and calls out to Beerus, "Hey, Brother!" which makes a seemingly impassive Beerus slightly turn his head to look at his brother.

At this point, the light of the Zenos' Erase starts to shine on the people of the 6th Universe as their bodies start flashing in a white aura before the Zenos cheerfully announce.

""Bye!""

Moments before their erasure, Cabba wishes his master, Vegeta, good luck, "You taught me much, master. Good luck to you." before him and all the other fighters suddenly disappear leaving behind only Champa, who simply sticks his tongue out at him moments before vanishing like the rest of the people of the 6th Universe making Beerus slowly turn his head back toward the fighting stage and mutter in a somber tone, "Nothing else to say?"

Shortly after that, Vegeta, who is still facing one of the three robots from the 3rd Universe, looks clearly upset as he takes his fighting stance and mutters, "I think it's time for you to say your prayers. This isn't personal. I'm just in one hell of a bad mood."

As Vegeta transforms into Super Saiyan and resumes his battle against the robot named Pancéa from the 3rd Universe, the Zenos review the current status of the tournament, seeing that many warriors have been eliminated and only five teams now remain.

"Wow, so many fighters are gone."

"Yes, only a few are not gone."

"So, will it be over soon?"

"Yes, very soon."

Hearing that, the Grand Minister assures them, "There is still so much to look forward to, sires. With the numbers down, the real excitement is about to begin. The champions of the five remaining universes will soon have no choice but to face each other, head to head," making the Zenos happily exclaim.

"That is a very good point!"

"I can't wait to see!"

"I think this will be very exciting!"

"Yes, and thrilling, too!"

At the same time, Gohan, who is sitting on the bleachers of the spectator stands, comments while analyzing the ongoing situation on the fighting stage, "The good news is that we've still got five fighters left on our team. But now that we're in the final stretch, Father and the others will have to work even harder to survive. Just take a look at who they are up against."

This is followed by Android 18, who says, "There are those three warriors from the 11th Universe. Each single one of them is quite powerful, especially Jiren. Then there is that Peppars guy from the 9th Universe that is also quite a tricky opponent. And lastly, let's not forget about the four remaining warriors from Jayr's Universe. They clearly give me the impression that they still haven't shown us everything that they are capable of."

Hearing that, Gohan quickly reminds her, "They aren't the only teams we have to worry about, Android 18-san. There is still yet another team that may still take us by surprise," which makes Android 17 calmly ask, "The 3rd Universe, right?"

In response, Gohan nods and simply comfirms, "Yeah." before Piccolo adds, "The 3rd Universe still has four active warriors in the fighting stage. Only one less than us and equal to Jayr's Universe." which makes Krillin agree, "Yeah, so we can't exactly count 'em out."

At the same time, the Supreme Kai of the 3rd Universe, Erye, laughs and says, "Hahahahaha. We've managed to hang on while so many have fallen. It would seem that the survival strategy of the 3rd Universe has been executed almost as brilliantly as it was devised."

In response, the God of Destruction's robot, Mosco, beeps loudly, which makes the Guide Angel, Camparri, translate, "Mosco-sama says: 'The most crucial phase of the plan has yet to begin. This is not the time for foolish celebrations.'"

Hearing that, Erye loudly gasps while Mosco loudly beeps once more, making Camparri praise him and translate once more, "Mosco-sama is wise. He says: 'With fewer combatants, this is our best chance.'"

Erye understand what his God of Destruction is alluding, smile and comments, "Yes, I could not agree more." before Mosco emits a blaring alarm-like sound while sending a new set of orders to the captain of his team, Dr. Paparoni, who recieves them through the cane in his hands that starts to pulse following the same pattern of Mosco's blaring alarm-like sound.

Shortly after that, Dr. Paparoni twirls his cane while shouting out loud, "I've just received the order from Mosco-sama! It's time! 3rd Universe team, fall in!"

In response, Borareta, Koitsukai, and Pancéa immediately disengage from their current battles and gather around Dr. Paparoni, while an annoyed Vegeta regroups with Goku and Cell.

As soon as Borareta, Koitsukai, and Pancéa are around him, Dr. Paparoni starts his encouraging speech, "I want you all to remember with every strike that the fate of our universe depends on you. The 7th Universe is the universe that has the most fighters remaining in this Tournament, so we will eliminate them first. Attack!"

Shortly after that, the remaining warriors of the 3rd Universe start their attack on Goku, Cell, and Vegeta, with Koitsukai releasing a barrage of concentrated bursts of energy from his eye that creates many explosions all around the trio from the 7th Universe as a distraction.

Then Pancéa takes advantage of the distraction to tackle Goku with its body crashing into a wall not too far away, and at the same time, Borareta extends his arms and uses them to attack Vegeta and Cell, who jump out of the way.

But Borareta follows up with yet another attack using the same method, forcing the still in mid-air Vegeta and Cell to deflect them before landing on the ground.

Goku kicks Pancéa away before walking out of the crater in the wall and complains out loud, "Damn, these fighters are coming at us like crazy!"

At the same time, Vegeta rushes toward Borareta and tries to attack it, but it anticipates his movements and easily dodges his attack, much to Vegeta's surprise, before it retaliates by once again extending its arm to hit Vegeta, who again dodges by jumping out of the way.

Watching this exchange, Beerus snorts and comments, "Tch. I'm getting worried. Seems like these bucket-heads are beginning to read our moves," which makes Whis guess, "Considering they've lasted for this long, it's entirely possible. I do not expect they will be defeated easily, Beerus-sama."

At the same time, I hear my daughter Kharna as she comments, "Those robots look way too funny! I think our Gunmen are much cooler!" followed by Galen who adds, "Of course they are, Kharna! They are much more powerful and can transform into a mecha larger than an entire galaxy! However, those three still can't be underestimated as they do have some impressive power compared to their relative normal size."

I focus back on the fighting stage and see Pancéa, who is still facing Goku, conceals its legs into its body and uses regular propulsion of its booster to take flight before it propels himself toward Goku, but Goku manages to push him back after a brief struggle, however, Pancéa follows up by firing rapid Ki blasts at its opponent.

At the same time, I notice that Koitsukai is continuing to analyze Goku and Vegeta as they fight, but then focus its attention on Cell who is quickly approaching it, and then, Cell quickly speeds up and jump in the air before firing a quick Kamehameha at it, but then he notices that Vegeta and Goku are now dodging a hail of blasts from Borareta and Pancéa and rushes toward them.

Soon after, the smoke caused by Cell's Kamehameha clears away, revealing a mostly unharmed Koitsukai who says, "Koitsukai to Pancéa and Borareta. Combine attacks to wipe them out. Over." making the two other robots of the 3rd Universe reply.

"Borareta acknowledges."

"Pancéa acknowledges."

At the same time, Goku and Vegeta also hear them and prepare for their attack with the latter saying, "Bring it, you junkyard scraps! I'll knock the bolts right out of you!"

Pancéa and Borareta then attack the Saiyans, but then Cell jumps in and stops their attacks with his hands before he calmly says, "Goku. Vegeta. Let me take them on. I can deal with these subpar products on my own."

After saying that, Cell powers himself up and pushes Pancéa and Borareta back before he follows up by firing a Ki Blast at them, sending the two of them crashing to the ground.

Koitsukai quickly joins Pancéa and Borareta, who are still lying on the ground, and seeing all three of them together, Cell crosses his arms and says in a confident tone while his golden aura flares to life, "Come on. I'll take on your whole team myself! I'll show you the power of the perfect artificial warrior."

Goku chuckles and says, "Heh. I'll leave it to you then, Cell," followed by Vegeta, who clicks his tongue and adds, "Tch. If you lose, it'll be on you, Cell."

At the same time, Krillin wonders, "Is he really trying to defeat them single-handedly?" which makes Piccolo explain, "If the 3rd Universe is knocked out, it'll be a showdown against other very powerful opponents like Jiren's squad and Jayr's Team. Cell must be trying to save Goku and Vegeta's strength for those even more difficult battles."

Hearing that, Krillin realizes, "Oh, that's pretty smart," which makes Gohan praise him, "Yeah, that's one of Cell's best traits. Thinking several moves ahead. At least when he doesn't let his battle-hungry Saiyan side take over..."

While they are talking, Koitsukai, Pancéa, and Borareta are scanning Cell, and as soon as Cell moves, Pancéa goes in to intercept and easily bats Cell away and follows up with a volley of Ki Blasts that Cell easily dodges.

Then Koitsukai releases a concentrated burst of energy from his eye, but again, Cell dodges and uses his wings to fly toward Koitsukai and kicks it away before Baroreta tries to punch him by extending its arm.

Cell dodges yet again by leaning his body and then quickly grabs Baroreta's extended arm before twirling Baroreta around and sending it crashing against one of the nearby boulders.

After that, Cell follows up by firing a barrage of Ki Blasts at the still downed opponent, giving no respite while Goku watching the battle comments, "Those guys are pretty strong, and Cell is givin' them a real challenge. That's Cell for ya." which makes Vegeta simply snort.

Soon, the smoke generated by Cell's barrage of Ki Blasts clears, revealing that Koitsukai, Pancéa, and Borareta remained mostly unharmed by Cell's attack and are now standing and ready to confront him once more.

At the same time, the robot of God of Destruction of the 3rd Universe, Mosco, once again beeps loudly, making Camparri translate, "Mosco-sama says: 'There is only one way to prevail. The time has come for them to execute Plan X.'"

Hearing that, Erye exclaims with surprise in his tone, "Oh, right. Plan X, I forgot!" before he fixes his slipped-off glasses by pushing them up with his index and middle finger and says with a confident smirk on his face, "We've delayed it long enough."

Meanwhile, Cell stares at his opponent and in a confident tone, he says, "I've already seen everything that I needed to see. This is the end. I'll finish this soon."

Suddenly, a Ki Blast is fired from a higher position by Dr. Paparoni that Cell casually dodges, and soon after, Dr. Paparoni laughs and states, "Hahaha. You've got it backwards. It's not the end, it's only the beginning! The real fight starts now!"

Then Dr. Paparoni laughs again and says, "For your sake, I hope you're ready," which makes a mildly interested Cell ask, "Ohh, for what?"

At this point, Dr. Paparoni theatrically twirls his cane and exclaims while pointing his cane at Koitsukai, Pancéa, and Borareta, "For Plan X. Programming Phase. Engage!"

Immediately after that, the spherical tip of Dr. Paparoni's can shines brightly before Koitsukai declares, "Plan X. Order received."

At Paparoni's instructions, Koitsukai, Pancéa, and Borareta jump high in the air, taking a triangular formation while calling out their names.

"Koitsukai!"

"Pancéa!"

"Borareta!"

Then Pancéa retracts all its extremities from a torso before quickly attaching to Borareta, which does the same with its arms forming the legs, and in the end, Koitsukai retracts its legs and joins with the already merged Borareta and Pancéa, becoming Koicéareta before all three of them declare.

"Koitsukai!"

"Pancéa!"

"Borareta!"

"""Combined!"""

(Image Here - Koicéareta)

Watching this scene, Zeno-1 exclaims, "Wow! They merged now!" followed by Zeno-2, who comments, "They are very big now that they've combined!" which makes Zeno-1 agree, "Yes, they are not small at all!"

At the same time, Dr. Paparoni declares, "Set functionality to maximum level, 1.256%! Show them the true power of the 3rd Universe's collective warrior! Koicéareta!"

Shortly after that, Koicéareta's enveloped in a bright purple aura as its energy jumps up several times, making Goku comment in an impressed tone, "Do you feel that? Their energy just shot up like a rocket!" followed by Vegeta who clicks his tongue and says, "Tch. Well, that's annoying."

Meanwhile, Erye chuckles, again fixes his slipped off glasses by pushing them up with his index and middle finger, and explains, "Huhuhu. As instructed, Dr. Paparoni altered all three of their bodies to maximize their strongest traits, then combined them to form the ultimate warrior with superior speed, power, and defense."

This is followed by Mosco's beeps, which are then translated by Camparri, "Mosco-sama says: 'Plan X is a complete success, and our victory is now assured.'"

At this point, Dr. Paparoni orders, "Teach them that raw muscles can't compare with the might of technology! It's time to demonstrate your true power and the superiority of the 3rd Universe! Attack!"

In response to Dr. Paparoni's order, Koicéareta doesn't hesitate and attacks Cell, who easily dodges by jumping back, making its fist slam onto the ground before Cell retaliates with another barrage of Ki Blasts.

However, soon it is clear that it has no effect on Koicéareta, making Cell narrow his eyes and comment, "Oh, that didn't even phase him... Interesting." Meanwhile, Dr. Paparoni enthusiastically praises his creation, "Excellent. You've got him doubting himself. Now's the time to attack!"

Koicéareta follows his creator's order and charges toward Cell, who jumps over Koicéareta and, once behind him, moves to attack him from behind; however, Koicéareta is much faster than before and quickly moves behind Cell and releases a powerful energy beam of energy from his eye, causing a massive explosion.

Seeing that, Dr. Paparoni laughed and commented, "Huhuhaha. Fool. You thought you could outmaneuver Koicéareta because of his size, but his speed is enhanced, as well."

In response, Cell rushes out of the smoke and calmly comments, "Then I just have to change my tactic a little and fight him head-on," before he quickly starts to exchange blows with Koicéareta.

Watching the ongoing exchange between Cell and Koicéareta, Dr. Paparoni laughs and taunts, "Huhaha. How long can those organic muscles hold Koicéareta off, warrior of the 7th Universe?" before he further encourages his creation, "Go on, Koicéareta! Smash him!"

However, the next moment, Cell's golden aura flares to life as he powers himself up with a roar and starts to push Koicéareta back before he lands a few clean blows that further push it back.

At this point, Koicéareta fires a powerful energy beam of energy from his eye and Cell counters by launching a Kamehameha, making it clash with it and slowly pushing it back, much to the surprise of Dr. Paparoni, who exclaims, "What? He's driving him back? There's no way my greatest masterpiece can be outdone! Koicéareta! Never give up! Never surrender!"

In response to that, Koicéareta increases its power output and starts to push Cell's Kamehameha back to the point that it is about to overpower it completely, making Dr. Paparoni exclaim, "Fool! Perhaps now even your organic mind understands the power of the 3rd Universe's combined warrior! And that there's no way you can stop him from crushing you! Hiahahaha!"

Hearing that, the apparently struggling Cell smirks and says, "Heh. I wouldn't be so sure about that. Maybe you're the real fool here. This is my power." before he let out a loud roar and flares his aura even more while also making his Kamehameha much more powerful to the point that it completely overwhelms Koicéareta's powerful energy beam and quickly advances toward its target until the merged robot catches the energy wave in its hands and starts to push back.

Seeing that scene, Dr. Paparoni laughs out loud and states in an almost deranged tone, "Hahaha! You see? That's the brilliance of its design! Even when you're giving everything you have, you're still not strong enough to overcome Koicéareta's magnificent defenses!"

Cell grunts and yells, "This isn't my limit yet! Me and my team will win this!!" before he unleashes even more power and soon Cell's Kamehameha starts to overwhelm Koicéareta's guard as its armor starts to crack much to the shock of Dr. Paparoni who exclaims in shock, "What? But how? It can't be!"

With one last roar, Cell pushes even more power into his Kamehameha that swallows both Koicéareta and Dr. Paparoni before it continues to advance across the fighting stage, seemingly defeating the 3rd Universe Team.

Watching what just happened, I focus on Cell's figure and contemplate, 'This version of Cell is truly fascinating. Not only because he is actually a force of good, but more importantly, because it allows me to witness just how far Cell can go if given the time to grow and train. I must admit that the result is truly something. The current Cell is actually much more powerful than I thought. In fact, he feels at around the same level as the current Goku and Vegeta. He is without doubt one of the strongest warriors of this multiverse.'

Shortly after thinking that, I focus back on the fighting stage and see Cell as he takes a deep breath and puts off his aura while Goku praises him, "Cell, you did it. Good job." which makes Cell smirk and reply, "Of course. This is expected from someone as perfect as me."

However, they soon notice that Dr. Paparoni has managed to remain in the arena and is now slowly getting up from the floor, so they quickly walk up to him with Vegeta who comments, "I figured you went over the side, and yet here you are. You're one stubborn bastard." followed by Cell who says, "Do you want to jump off the fighting stage on your own? Or should I just kick you out? I'm fine with whatever choice you make."

At this point, Dr. Paparoni laughs loudly, making a confused Vegeta ask, "What the hell are you laughing about?"

Dr. Paparoni fully gets up and says, "I was hoping I could avoid this, but you leave me no choice. I'm going to knock every last one of you out of the Tournament, even if it costs me my life!"

The next moment, the tip of his cane starts to shine in a bright purple light while he declares, "You're about to face the ultimate, secret technique of the 3rd Universe, from which there is no escape!"

Suddenly, Koicéareta also appears behind him as the light generated by the tip of his cane become brighter and brighter and he starts to laugh loudly while Goku comments, "I thought they were finished, but they've still got another play." followed by Vegeta who clicks his tongue and says, "Tch. These fools just don't know when to quit."

Dr. Paparoni then says, "You thought you could walk all over me. You'll regret that! Ha!" before he jumps high in the air while Koicéareta behind him suddenly starts to shine in a blinding white light that seems swallow Dr. Paparoni's figure completely as he merges with it while a surprised Beerus exclaims, "Just what in the multiverse are they doing now?"

Within that blinding white light, Koicéareta's figure starts to change; not only does it become much bigger, but it also becomes much more humanoid.

It transforms into a gigantic humanoid with no visible nose and solid pink eyes with no pupils.

Its body has whiter layers on the skin on its head, neck, shoulders, and chest, and in the center of its forehead is a large red gem which acts as its energy core. I remember reading somewhere that this area is also its weak point.

On both sides of his head are two elongated ear extensions with green gems underneath the tips that act as its sonar.

Its arms and the rest of its body are a darker color, ending at the base of the legs.

The legs before the pointed boots and hands at the base of the arm guards are purple.

Its arms possess white shoulder guards with red gems on the top of the arms, and in the center of its chest is a green gem.

Finally, the transformation into the gigantic Agnilasa is complete, and soon the gigantic creature let out a wild roar as it flares its purple aura to life, generating a very powerful gale.

(Image Here - Agnilasa)

Looking at Agnilasa's enormous figure, Goku can't help but comment in shock, "Look at the size of that guy... He's gigantic!" followed by Vegeta, who snorts and says, "Huh. Big deal."

Shortly after that, I saw that all the other warriors on the fighting stage also took notice of Agnilasa and started to comment.

"Should I go over there and help Father, Vegeta-san, and Cell deal with that...? Let's just observe for now, I'm quite confident in them." 

"Well, it surely has a huge amount of power to match its size."

"Wow! That is quite something. Maybe we should evolve to the Ultimate Level to deal with that."

"Yeah, its power and size are indeed quite impressive."

"The bigger they are... The harder they fall. But still this is impressive."

"Impressive. I never would've guessed that the 3rd Universe had a trick like this up their sleeve."

"Damn... Just how many monsters are there in this tournament?"

The Zenos are impressed with the size of this fusion as they exclaim.

"Wow! So big!"

"Yes! And strong, too!"

""I am in awe!""
