Chapter 258 - The Battle Intensifies! Growing Even More Fierce

'Bang!!!!' Vegeta's charged kick fiercely drove into Jiren's abdomen.

Evil Ki seeped deep into Jiren's skin, destroying him from the inside out.

A trace of shock flashed through Jiren's eyes after being hit again. He never expected Vegeta's growth speed to be this fast.

"What's wrong?! Is your power only at this level?! If that's the case, then this uncle will just have to knock you off this arena." Vegeta laughed mockingly.

These words entered Jiren's ears, making Jiren's eyes turn cold.

In an instant, Jiren suddenly exerted force, and his violent aura sent Vegeta flying.

Without giving Vegeta a chance to breathe, Jiren's burly body rushed out forcefully like a rampaging giant beast.

The sent-flying Vegeta performed several backflips in succession before finally stabilizing himself. Evil Ki erupted, transforming from intangible into tangible.

In an instant, it transformed into a massive demon claw!

"Take this!!!" Vegeta shouted loudly, controlling the demon claw to attack Jiren.

Facing this demon claw that radiated a terrifying aura, Jiren ignored it and pressed forward without hesitation.

With an explosive sound of 'Bang!!!'

The demon claw shattered in response, turning into energy fragments drifting through space.

Seeing the demon claw shattered, Vegeta's pupils shrank sharply. Before he could defend, he was knocked over on the spot by Jiren's powerful body.

The time had come. Jiren would not let Vegeta off so easily. With a domineering kick, he sent Vegeta a hundred meters into the sky, then used high-speed movement to arrive directly above Vegeta ahead of time. He clasped his hands together, and a powerful smash struck Vegeta's chest squarely.

Vegeta fell to the ground, his body feeling as if it had shattered as he entered a brief stiffness.

This was not over yet. Naturally, Jiren would not let go of Vegeta's fatal opening.

He descended from the sky like a meteor, and his charged kick struck Vegeta's abdomen.

'Puaah!!!!' Vegeta, who suffered heavy damage, spat out a mouthful of essence blood, and his aura dropped sharply like a cliff.

It was still not over!

The cold and merciless Jiren gathered power and fiercely stomped on Vegeta's abdomen. The powerful force made Vegeta reveal a ferocious expression, but relying on his tenacious willpower, he forcefully withstood Jiren's stomping.

"Hmph~~!!! Still struggling? The Saiyans of Universe 7 are only this much!!!" Seeing Vegeta so tenacious, Jiren snorted coldly, then made a decision. He was done playing.

He grabbed Vegeta's hair with one hand and domineeringly lifted him up. His other hand accumulated energy, and his flame-burning fist suddenly struck out.

'Bang!!!!!!!' This strike landed solidly on Vegeta's abdomen and left a deep fist mark.

Vegeta, who was heavily struck once again, felt terrible. Blue veins bulged on his forehead, and his expression was ferocious like an evil ghost.

A sweetness surged up his throat, but he forcefully swallowed it back down.

"It's over." Jiren's fist turned into a palm, and a blazing energy ball pulsed in his palm.

Feeling the heat at his chest, Vegeta's pupils shrank sharply, and he immediately felt that things were bad.

The strength of this energy ball had reached the peak of the tenth dimension. Eliminating the current Vegeta would not be a problem.

'Boom~~!!!!!!!' The energy bullet suddenly shot out violently, carrying Vegeta's body along and piercing through everything blocking its path straight ahead.

Until it reached the edge of the arena, where a world-destroying explosion occurred.

This scene left the spectators of Universe 7 dumbfounded, their hearts shocked to the extreme.

Those contestants who had ideas about Jiren were also shocked by this terrifying energy.

That burly bald man was terrifying beyond ordinary.

The arrogant Jiren turned around and ignored the smoke and fire brought by the explosion. In his view, Vegeta had already been eliminated.

However, just as he was about to return to his team, the Evil Ki that erupted again within his senses made him frown.

He turned around once more and stared at the explosion's location.

When most of the thick smoke dispersed, at the edge of the arena, Vegeta still had not been eliminated.

But the current Vegeta's condition was also not optimistic. His Demonized Super 5 body was covered in shocking wounds, and Vegeta was gasping heavily.

Jiren's continuous attacks had injured him severely, but they had also indirectly ignited Vegeta's fighting spirit.

The pain in his flesh transformed into pleasure.

A warm current surged through Vegeta's whole body. Evil Ki burned from beneath his feet, enveloping his body, and the disturbance it caused also grew larger and larger.

The power of Demonized · Super Saiyan 5 grew stronger and stronger. His Bloodline Power was completely stimulated in the battle against Jiren.

"Hm?!" Sensing the terrifying aura rapidly swelling from Vegeta's body, Jiren frowned.

He had clearly suffered such severe injuries, yet his strength did not decrease and instead increased. The Saiyan race was even stranger than he had imagined.

"Roar~~!!!" Suddenly, the roar of a Great Ape echoed through the World of Void.

The source of this sound was none other than Vegeta.

Right now, his physical form was changing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The power of Demonized Super Saiyan 5 was completely stimulated, and his battle power explosively increased by leaps and bounds. From the peak of the tenth dimension, it climbed to the extreme of the tenth dimension, then broke through that layer of shackles and completely stepped into the eleventh dimension.

A monstrous evil light spread out, bringing boundless demonic might, dispersing the chaos of the World of Void and tearing open several spatial cracks.

Feeling the endless Evil Power erupting within his body, the smile on Vegeta's face grew even more intense.

After his power increase reached its peak, Vegeta's aura rapidly returned inward.

His sharp eyes locked onto Jiren. His legs gathered power and suddenly erupted, turning into a beam of demonic light that charged toward Jiren with unimaginable speed.

Facing power at the eleventh-dimensional level, a cautious look flashed across Jiren's face.

"You were enjoying hitting me earlier, weren't you?! Now it's this uncle's turn!!!" Vegeta shouted excitedly, descending before Jiren in the blink of an eye.

Just as he thought his attack was about to succeed, a deep red light flashed through Jiren's eyes.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds to thousands of destructive strikes poured down toward Vegeta.

'Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!...' Countless muffled explosive sounds burst open.

Vegeta was overturned in an instant. His entire body uncontrollably smashed through a massive stone pillar, sliding more than ten meters before barely stabilizing himself.

"What is going on?!" Vegeta did not understand.

Jiren turned around indifferently, his gaze that looked down on everything staring at Vegeta.

At this time, Vegeta struggled to stand up, lowering his head to look at the dense fist marks on his chest.

[Damn bastard, he can actually launch so many attacks in an instant. Even the current me couldn't react.] Vegeta's heart was heavy, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

Fortunately, the physique of Demonized · Super Saiyan 5 was tough enough. Otherwise, he probably would have been beaten to pieces.

...

On Lin Chuan's side.

[What a domineering guy. Without relying on any means or laws, he reached this level with pure power alone. If Vegeta's physique were not strong enough and he did not have the defense of Evil Ki, you might really have killed him.] Lin Chuan gave Jiren extremely high recognition in his heart.

The Jiren in Lin Chuan's timeline was probably the strongest one among all timelines, right?

Ultimate mortal power. In the truest sense, surpassing gods with the body of a mortal.

"Vegeta, the timing is about right. If you don't use that power, you won't have a chance." Lin Chuan muttered to himself.

Jiren was certainly powerful, but that did not mean Vegeta had no power to fight.

If Ultra Ego was stacked on top of the Demonized · Super Saiyan 5 transformation, Vegeta's battle power would once again surge explosively.

The only question was whether Vegeta, truly going all out, could make Jiren use that mysterious power.

...

In the area where Toppo and Dyspo were.

"It's useless. No matter who it is, they can't possibly be Jiren's opponent." Dyspo's expression was indifferent, having absolute confidence in Jiren's power.

Jiren was a human hailed as having surpassed the God of Destruction.

Aside from that Saiyan called Lin Chuan from Universe 7, no one among the twelve universes was his opponent.

"That being said, that Vegeta also doesn't seem simple. I keep feeling that he still has something hidden." Toppo frowned and said in a deep voice.

As Universe 11's candidate God of Destruction, he was extremely sensitive to God of Destruction Power.

If he had guessed correctly, this Vegeta should be Universe 7's candidate God of Destruction.

"He still has something hidden?!" Dyspo was startled and looked at Toppo with a shocked expression.

"We'll know if we keep watching." Toppo did not say more and continued to remain silent.

...

At the same time, behind a pile of rocks a thousand meters to the left of Toppo and Dyspo.

Gohan and Piccolo were paying attention to the distant battlefield here.

Although the distance was very far, with their eyesight, the full picture of the battle was completely taken into their eyes.

"I completely didn't see how that person launched his attack... Uncle Vegeta is probably going to use Ultra Ego." Gohan gazed into the distance and guessed.

The current situation was already not something Demonized Super Saiyan 5 could handle. Only by bringing out Ultra Ego would there be a possibility of turning the tables.

"Even if he brings out Ultra Ego, I'm afraid winning won't be that easy..." Piccolo's expression was solemn, and he did not make further judgment.

With his realm and eyesight, he could naturally see Jiren's terror.

That human hailed as having surpassed the God of Destruction definitely had more battle power than this.

Vegeta had Ultra Ego as a trump card, but that guy might also have some move that could increase his battle power to the limit.

Just as they were thinking, someone launched a sneak attack against them.

Three energy bullets attacked from behind the two.

"A boring trick." Sensing the spatial fluctuation, Piccolo suddenly turned around and casually fired a laser, piercing through all three energy bullets.

In an instant, the flames of the explosion filled the sky.

After the flames of the explosion dispersed, the ones who had attacked them appeared.

They were Universe 3's contestants: Za Priccio, Nigrissi, and Narirama.

"Your reactions are pretty fast, guys from Universe 7," Za Priccio said.

"Don't waste words with them. Three against two, the advantage is ours." Nigrissi activated his ability and entered an invisible state, disappearing from the spot.

"Beep beep beep!!" Narirama also prepared for battle.

Naturally, Gohan and Piccolo would not let the attackers go. It just so happened that they had been watching the battle the whole time earlier. Now it was time to move around as well.

"Just the three of you dare say you have the advantage?" The corners of Piccolo's mouth moved slightly. The energy pool within his body pulsed, and just as he was about to act, Gohan stopped him.

"Uncle Piccolo, please leave them to me." Gohan stepped forward first and said.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Piccolo's face. He folded his arms, his aura restrained, and said with a trace of expectation, "Then let me witness the results of your training over this past year, Gohan."

"I won't disappoint you, Uncle." Having received permission, fighting spirit ignited in Gohan's eyes.

In a single thought, his Potential Unleashed state activated. A ten-thousandfold battle power increase raised his battle power to the peak of the eighth dimension!

After sensing the energy Gohan erupted with, the trio from Universe 3 were shocked at the same time. They had not expected Gohan's battle power to be this strong.

However, strong was strong. If it was only this level, it was not impossible to deal with.

They were carefully selected modified humans. In particular, they had also received an Angel's Blessing. If they could not win three against one, that would be too embarrassing.

...

At the same time, the other members of Universe 7 also began taking action one after another.

"What a pity, little sister. You were unlucky enough to meet me, Ribrianne. I have already become an existence of god." Ribrianne placed both hands on her waist and laughed with incomparable confidence.

And the opponent directly in front of her was none other than Lin Chuan's daughter, Lin Xue.

"You should have stayed by your father's side instead of acting alone. Meeting us means you're unlucky." Rozie laughed confidently.

Looking at the two arrogant people before her, Lin Xue did not argue with them.

"Unreasonable guys. It's bad enough that you're ugly, but you're also this arrogant." Lin Xue laughed mockingly. At the same time, the Divine Power within her body was activated, and in a single thought, she entered the full-power Super Saiyan Blue state.

After Ribrianne and Rozie heard Lin Xue's mockery, they instantly became furious.

They were the beautiful girl warriors of Universe 2, the most beautiful people besides God of Destruction Heles.

She actually dared say they were ugly?!

Unforgivable!

...

On Broly's side.

Broly, who yearned to fight powerful warriors, had unknowingly arrived at the area where the warriors of Universe 1 were located.

Among them, an ultimate life-form blocked his path.

"A warrior from Universe 7? Hmph~! Meeting me is your misfortune. I am Universe 1's ultimate life-form, Costa." This warrior named Costa had an extremely strong physique.

Just standing there, the invisible pressure and impact he brought were not something ordinary warriors could compare to.

Broly, without entering his humanoid Great Ape state, was slightly inferior to Costa in height.

"Ultimate life-form? Is that very strong?" Broly sized Costa up and down, showing disdain.

So what if he was an ultimate life-form? He was the Legendary Super Saiyan!

"Try me, and you'll know." Costa was unwilling to waste words. As an ultimate life-form, he had always been arrogant.

On this arena, aside from a very small number of people whose sharp edge he needed to temporarily avoid, he did not place anyone else in his eyes.

He would not know that this time, he had chosen the wrong opponent.
