"The likes of you, an evil scoundrel, won't be given a chance to catch your breath. My speed is faster than you can possibly imagine."
The one who attacked Frost was none other than one of Universe 11's Pride Troopers' Three Great Warriors—the fastest warrior, Dyspo!
The ring of justice binding Frost was his handiwork.
"You bastard! Do you really think something like this can hold me?!" Frost struggled with all his might, but the gap in strength between them was simply too great.
With his current power, there was no way he could break free from Dyspo's Justice Ring.
"Don't waste your effort. My Justice Ring isn't something you can escape from."
Dyspo smiled calmly before detonating the energy ring with a single thought.
BOOM~~~!!!!
The explosion engulfed Frost in flames.
It seemed as though the outcome had already been decided, and even Dyspo believed victory was certain.
However, when more than half of the smoke dispersed—
Not only was Frost unharmed, but he had also emerged in an entirely new form.
"What?!"
Seeing Frost's transformation, Dyspo opened his mouth slightly in surprise.
Golden-red flames surrounded Frost's body, while his skin turned brilliant gold.
This form was none other than—
Golden Frost!
As time passed and new possibilities unfolded, Frost had also reached this realm under the guidance of Vados and Champa.
In the original timeline, he had never attained this transformation.
Only Frieza had achieved the Golden Form.
"Hmph! You self-righteous fool. You almost succeeded with that sneak attack. To actually force me to reveal my Golden Form... even if you're eliminated now, you should have no regrets."
Golden Frost, now fighting at full power, was supremely confident in his strength.
Although this form was nowhere near as terrifying as Gohan's or Kefla's, Frost believed dealing with Dyspo would still be easy.
"Die!!"
Golden Frost revealed his vicious nature as murderous intent slowly spread toward Dyspo.
Unfortunately—
The opponent before him was far beyond anything he could contend with.
The instant Golden Frost moved, Dyspo shot forward even faster.
One hand seized Golden Frost's face before smashing him violently into the arena.
His fingers tightened, twisting Golden Frost's face.
"AAAAAAAH!!!"
Golden Frost screamed in agony as his face was distorted.
"You've only changed color. Your actual strength hasn't changed at all."
Dyspo sneered before casually throwing Golden Frost away.
Immediately afterward, he burst forward once again with unbelievable speed, relentlessly battering Golden Frost's body.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!...
In the blink of an eye, dozens—then hundreds—of ultra-high-speed heavy blows landed upon Golden Frost.
It had to be said that Golden Frost's durability was indeed remarkable.
Despite Dyspo's fierce assault leaving him covered in wounds, his Ki remained surprisingly stable.
"Damn you!! Don't get so full of yourself!!"
Enraged after being overwhelmingly suppressed, Golden Frost swung an arm wrapped in golden-red flames.
However, Dyspo had seemingly predicted the attack long ago.
Not only did he dodge it effortlessly—
He also drove a fully charged strike straight into Frost's abdomen.
"Puaaah~~!!"
After suffering another devastating blow, Golden Frost spat out a huge mouthful of blood.
His Ki weakened noticeably.
His body had been severely injured.
"Your speed... is far too slow."
Dyspo grinned mockingly before instantly appearing behind Frost.
Grabbing Frost's tail with one hand, he swung Golden Frost around like a weapon, repeatedly smashing him against the ground and the protruding Super Katchin stone pillars.
In an instant—
Rubble flew everywhere.
Dust filled the air.
Dyspo's merciless beating of Golden Frost continued.
Two minutes later...
Frost had already lost consciousness.
His Golden Form had vanished.
During those two minutes, Dyspo had subjected him to an unbelievably brutal beating, completely crippling Golden Frost.
"Huff... Huff... You're tougher than I expected. You actually made me waste this much effort. But now... I doubt you'll be waking up anytime soon."
Taking two deep breaths, Dyspo suddenly exerted force with one arm.
He hurled the unconscious Frost into the air before gathering energy in both hands.
A Justice Energy Blast shot forth, sending the unconscious Frost flying out of the arena.
Thus—
Frost was eliminated.
"Done."
Dyspo clapped his hands.
His sharp senses suddenly detected something.
Turning his gaze, he locked onto two figures hiding behind the rocks.
They were Universe 6's Botamo and Auta Magetta.
"The remaining contestants from Universe 6? Good. I'll take this opportunity to eliminate every last one of you!"
Dyspo smiled confidently before charging toward Magetta and Botamo.
...
At the same time, battles across the other battlefields had also entered their most intense stages.
On Universe 1's battlefield—
Legendary Super Saiyan Broly began his performance.
With absolute strength, he swept through every Ultimate Life Form of Universe 1.
These so-called Ultimate Life Forms merely possessed slightly higher battle power.
Compared to a monster like Legendary Super Saiyan Broly—
They were still far too weak.
In his Legendary Super Saiyan form, Broly displayed overwhelming combat power far beyond anything these Ultimate Life Forms could withstand.
Even among them—
There was a God of Destruction candidate.
Of the seven Ultimate Life Forms, six had already been defeated.
Only one remained—
The Ultimate Life Form, Gat.
At the same time, he was also the God of Destruction candidate personally chosen by God of Destruction Iwan.
"Monster..."
Gat looked at Broly with deep caution.
This purely powerful and terrifying monster gave him the same feeling as the super monsters currently fighting elsewhere in the arena.
"Monster? Heh... That's a much better title than your 'Ultimate Life Form.'"
Broly grinned savagely before raising one hand toward the void.
In an instant—
The entire World of Void changed color.
Bzzzzz~~!!!
One energy ring after another condensed into Broly's palm.
Soon, an emerald-green energy sphere possessing boundless destructive power formed.
The next second, Broly swung his arm.
The devastating emerald energy sphere shot forward, smashing directly toward Gat.
BOOM~~!!!!!!!!!!!
The energy exploded.
Brilliant emerald light bloomed.
Its destruction, compressed to the absolute limit, swallowed Ultimate Life Form Gat.
However—
Powerful as the attack was, it still wasn't enough to eliminate Gat completely.
As the rolling smoke from the explosion dispersed—
Gat's appearance underwent an enormous transformation.
His physique became even more muscular.
A highly ominous energy surrounded his body.
His muscles resembled solid stone.
Even his height was now no less imposing than Broly's.
This power...
Was none other than God of Destruction Power.
Empowered by it, Gat transformed into a giant even more muscular than Broly in his Legendary Super Saiyan form.
"God of Destruction Power? I see. So you're Universe 1's God of Destruction candidate."
After sensing the God of Destruction Power surrounding Gat, Broly became slightly more interested.
He was no stranger to the power of a God of Destruction.
He had experienced it many times before.
Now was the perfect chance to see whether another universe's God of Destruction candidate was stronger—
Or whether the Legendary Super Saiyan was superior.
He refused to be outdone by Son Goku, Vegeta, or Raditz.
"You're right, Saiyan of Universe 7."
As his words fell, Gat's enormous body shot toward Broly like a cannonball.
Bang! Bang!!
Their fingers interlocked as overwhelming strength pressed against one another.
Gat continuously increased his power.
His expression gradually became more ferocious.
He even began showing signs of overpowering Broly through sheer strength.
Feeling the increasing pressure, the smile on Broly's face became even more terrifying.
"Interesting. After using the power of a God of Destruction, you've become much stronger. You're no longer as weak as before. But even with this level of strength... you're still no match for me."
With those words, Broly suddenly exerted force with both hands.
An incomparably overwhelming strength instantly erupted, sending Gat flying.
Immediately afterward, Broly gathered Legendary Super Saiyan power, instantly condensing it into a devastating compressed destruction sphere.
Locking onto Gat, he hurled it forward.
The instant it left Broly's control—
Its size expanded a hundredfold.
It became a gigantic energy sphere over ten meters in diameter that rushed toward Gat.
"A pointless trick."
Gat paid no attention whatsoever to Broly's energy attack.
Wrapped in God of Destruction Power, he charged directly into the gigantic energy sphere.
Bzzzt~!
Protected by God of Destruction Power—
Broly's compressed destruction sphere was shattered, dissolving into countless particles around Gat.
"So you neutralized my energy attack using the power of destruction? Interesting. But I'm curious... can you block this one as well?"
Instead of worrying, Broly became even more excited.
He reached one hand toward the void.
The surrounding space twisted violently.
An irresistible destructive energy condensed within his palm.
The energy sphere looked no larger than a ping-pong ball.
Yet the destructive force hidden inside was far beyond its appearance.
"Any energy attack is meaningless before the power of destruction."
Gat sneered dismissively.
The might of God of Destruction Power was not something ordinary energy could compare with.
If Broly were using Divine Power, he might have been somewhat wary.
Unfortunately—
Broly relied solely upon mortal power.
Not Divine Power.
The next second—
Gat clasped his hands together before separating them.
God of Destruction Power condensed into a crimson-purple sphere of destruction within his palms.
"Destroy!"
He thrust both hands forward.
A gigantic Destruction Sphere dozens of meters across surged ahead.
Compared to Broly's tiny ping-pong-ball-sized compressed energy sphere—
It was like comparing a mountain to a pebble.
Their destructive power seemed completely incomparable.
In everyone's eyes—
Broly's tiny energy sphere had no chance against Gat's Destruction Sphere.
"A frog at the bottom of a well..."
Broly laughed sinisterly, completely dismissing Gat's ridicule.
To him—
Gat was nothing more than a blind fool.
Even possessing God of Destruction Power, he remained an insignificant insect.
BOOM~~!!!!
In an instant—
Broly's compressed energy sphere suddenly expanded.
Its diameter instantly exceeded a thousand meters, resembling an enormous meteor.
"What?!"
Watching Broly's energy sphere expand wildly before his eyes, Gat instantly understood everything.
Broly's attack had appeared insignificant—
But it had actually been incomparably deadly.
That tiny ping-pong-ball-sized sphere had been compressed to that size through overwhelming force.
Once Broly released his restraint—
The energy exploded outward, revealing its true form.
Its destructive power was enough to annihilate everything.
The previously confident Gat instantly lost all confidence.
He dared not relax in the slightest.
Immediately afterward—
Broly's colossal energy sphere crushed Gat's Destruction Sphere right before his eyes.
The gigantic energy sphere rapidly advanced.
Before Gat realized it—
It had already reached him.
At that moment—
His expression changed dramatically.
The man who had looked down upon energy attacks moments earlier now felt genuine mortal danger.
Gat thrust both hands forward, releasing a wave of Ki in an attempt to push the gigantic energy sphere back.
However—
How could its overwhelming momentum be stopped so easily?
His hands were swallowed by the energy.
Under his terrified gaze—
The gigantic energy sphere completely engulfed his body.
BOOM~~~!!!
A massive explosion shook the arena.
Towering smoke soared into the sky.
Within a radius of a thousand meters, the arena was torn apart by the shockwave, sinking more than ten meters.
When much of the aftermath dispersed—
Gat's battered body was revealed.
Even protected by God of Destruction Power—
His body had suffered devastating damage from the power of the Legendary Super Saiyan.
"Hehehehe... It's over!"
Seeing this, Broly's smile became even more unrestrained.
Humiliated by Broly, Gat was consumed by rage.
Dragging his battered body, he attempted one final desperate fight.
Reality, however, was cruel.
The instant he exerted himself—
His injuries triggered a chain reaction.
Explosive pain instantly overwhelmed him.
He dropped to one knee, cold sweat pouring down his face.
Damn it... How could this happen? I was personally chosen by Lord Iwan as the God of Destruction candidate... How could I possibly lose to someone who hasn't even mastered Divine Power...?
Gat found it impossible to accept such an ending.
He was Universe 1's strongest contestant.
Being eliminated like this was the greatest humiliation imaginable.
Whoosh~~!!!
A sharp sound pierced the air.
At that instant, Gat regained his focus and looked up in terror.
Broly had already appeared before him.
Standing high above as the victor, he looked down upon Gat.
"Is this all you've got? What a disappointment."
Broly grabbed Gat by the throat with one hand and lifted him effortlessly.
With only a slight increase in strength—
Crack... Crack...
The sound of bones creaking echoed out.
Gat's pride suffered the greatest humiliation imaginable.
Consumed by rage, he swung his bloodied arms repeatedly at Broly.
Yet those feeble attacks—
Even if they landed—
Could not inflict the slightest damage upon Broly.
