Chapter 26: Xeniloum vs. Buu

[Next match, Universe 5's Xeniloum against Universe 4's Super Buu.]

Super Trunks ran to the Universe 5 contestant area and said, "You can't possibly win. Why haven't you all forfeited yet?"

Universe 5 glared at him angrily. 

The leader of the team, Eleim, didn't argue with him.

One of the other Helots said, "Haven't you noticed that our armor has changed?"

Trunks looked at them carefully. Their armor was indeed different from the beginning.

The heavy outer shell was gone, replaced with a style similar to Saiyan battle suits.

Even so, Trunks still didn't think they had any hope of winning and said, "Your armor is cool, but you must have seen the fighting power of the others, right? Relying on armor alone is far from enough to compete with them."

Xeniloum said, "After seeing that the strength of our opponents was far greater than the Forst Demon race, we decided to take out our real armor."

He pointed at himself with his thumb and said, "That Broly threw you into chaos, but if it were me now, I could kill him with one move."

Xeniloum's gesture was the same 'Nah, I'd win gesture' that everyone in Dragon Ball does before they get beaten to death.

That was how Trunks knew he would in fact not win.

Xeniloum and Super Buu landed on the stage.

Xeniloum took the lead, creating an X shape in front of him with his fingers.

Super Buu was immediately cut into five pieces.

The distance between the two sides was more than ten meters, but Xeniloum's attack hit Super Buu almost instantaneously.

With Super Buu's recovery ability, he naturally wasn't afraid. The flesh of his body wriggled and connected together.

Xeniloum took two steps back, shooting out an energy ball from his right hand.

Super Buu stretched out a finger and touched it.

The moment he made contact, a shockwave erupted from it.

Xeniloum, who had been prepared for this, retreated several steps, flying into the air.

Gravel flew everywhere; smoke billowed. The entire arena was destroyed in an instant.

He himself didn't want to kill others, but this Buu was too troublesome. Only a large-area attack could defeat him.

Just when he thought he had won, he felt someone touch his back and heard a voice.

"That attack was very good. Your armor... why don't you give it to me?"

Xeniloum jumped away and turned to see Buu standing behind him.

Buu raised his hand and waved. He used magic, trying to lift his armor, but there was no reaction.

Xeniloum said, "Our system can defend against telekinesis. Your methods are useless against me."

With magic not working, Super Buu chose to use force and flew straight towards him.

Xeniloum shot out energy blasts from his right hand like a torrential rain, creating one hole after another in Buu's body, and confronted him head-on.

Buu's body bent and turned. He stretched and swallowed Xeniloum.

Two seconds later he was thrown out, but his armor, equipment, and clothes were gone.

Buu smiled and said, "I'll take the armor and study it carefully. You can leave the stage now."

Buu was kicked out, and Xeniloum was thrown off bounds, which meant he had lost.

A tall man from Universe 5 wanted to fight Super Buu and take back their expensive armor.

The leader stopped him. "The armor is sealed after being taken off and can only be activated with Xeniloum's genetic code. Additionally, only by using a specific brainwave frequency that we, the Heloits, have can one unleash the true power of the armor. Even if it's taken away, it amounts to nothing."

Super Gohan was quite surprised by the destructive power of the armor.

"These people are not that weak. With their armor they have destructive power that can be compared to a Super Saiyan."

This was the power of Super Saiyan Goku from the Z era.

There were differences between Super Saiyans. The stronger the base form, the stronger the transformation.

Meanwhile, Super Vegeta kept pacing back and forth, complaining about not fighting.

Super Gohan said, "It's still early. You just finished fighting not long ago."

Super Vegeta pointed at Gogeta. 

"He's fought twice already. I feel like I've been standing here forever."
