[3rd POV]
With the decision to include Leriac as the last team member, it was finally beginning to encroach on the time for the tournament to begin. A tournament that isn't actually going to last all that long, not much longer than an hour or two at most.
Short, but full of incredible battles that Gwen was anticipating.
"So, Gwen, how did you make Leriac?" The man known as Yamcha asked, curious on how it was even possible someone could make something like that. Someone so advanced.
Sure, he had seen Cell and the other Androids of this world, but something about this android was...different. He seemed stronger, better, smarter, and more than anything, far more advanced than normal.
"A lot of very advanced technology, ones that you wouldn't even begin to understand. And a good bit of hard work" Gwen responded with a shrug, not even bothering to explain more than that. She could tell that Bulma was very interested, even if she was hiding it behind a small glare.
She didn't want the woman to try and replicate her work, as that would probably not end very well for her. As the way she produces the androids of the same time as Leriac is incredibly complicated and has a lot of potential danger to it.
Not the type of danger Bulma can handle.
"That's cryptic" Bulma said with a small pout on her lips.
"No offense to your intelligence, Bulma-san, but the androids I make are well beyond anything in this universe" Gwen replied simply, as Bulma's face formed into a deep frown, insulted a bit by what Gwen had said.
"What, you don't think I could make an android like yours?"
"No" Gwen responded blandly, as the others just listened with interested expressions. The more that they learned about Gwen and Leriac, the more they were wondering what type of person Gwen was.
"Seriously, what sort of power do you have if you're this confident about literally everything you say?" Tien asked with a frown, wondering if she was just arrogant or something.
"Hmm, I suppose by the standards all of you know, I'd be somewhat similar to that of Zeno. But even that isn't an entirely accurate representation of what I am" Gwen responded with a hum, as the others just looked at her wide eyed.
"Now you're just being arrogant! Nobody is as powerful as Grand Zeno, nobody!" Beerus responded with a deep angry scowl. Gwen just laughed at his words.
"Trust me, there are plenty out there just as strong as him, and many many more that make him look like a worm. Where I come from, there are dozens of entities that surpass him many times over, and many more that would rival him" Gwen replied with a small grin on her face as she saw their faces warp into deeper shock.
"Where you come from? The hell does that mean?" Vegeta asked with narrowed eyes.
"I'm not from around here, simple as that. Now, are we going to get to this tournament, or are you going to continue to ask me questions that you will not be getting answers to anytime soon" Gwen asked, growing bored of this constant questioning.
Instead she wanted to get to the tournament and finally meet Zeno.
"Hmm? But I don't believe you can accompany us, can you?" Android 18 asked.
"Oh trust me, the second I appear there I'll be allowed to stay. While all of you might not be able to feel what I am, I have a feeling Zeno will" Gwen replied with a confident glint in her eyes, as the others just glanced at Whis who just shrugged.
"Might as well. If she isn't allowed there I can simply return her anyways" Whis said at the questioning looks he was getting.
"Huh...alright then, lets get going!" Goku exclaimed in excitement, as they all began to gather in a circle, ready to head to the tournament that would decide the fate of their entire universe.
The fate of trillions.

After teleporting off with the group, they appeared on the large platform where the tournament of power was going to be taking place. The platform itself was quite large, and had more and more of the universe's fighters teleporting onto it.
She saw the different fighters and her eyes gleamed with interest. Some of their biologies were truly unique and she was interested in learning more about them. And some of them had traits and powers that were curious too.
But of course, there was only one fighter amongst them that really interested her. And that was Jiren himself, the best fighter in the entire tournament besides Goku, who would have to go through hell and back to fight him.
At least, that's the case normally. But now that Leriac is there, that was no longer the case. As Leriac was literally made to be the strongest fighter for this tournament, and was trained extensively to already have mastered ultra instinct, something that would make him superior to even the powerful and skilled Jiren.
Something that would make him stronger than even the Gods of Destruction.
And that wasn't even counting the super saiyan forms and everything else that combined with the traits he already had, making him far stronger than normal.
After looking over the various fighters for the tournament, Gwen looked up and stared at the floating fortress that the two Zeno's were currently in. She could feel their power, and had to admit it was pretty impressive, but not impressive enough.
"Alright, I'm off" Gwen said with a small smile, as the others looked at her in confusion, only for her to blur off, reappearing inside of the large floating fortress, right in front of both of the Zeno's.
Their guards almost immediately reacted, only for the two Zeno's to look up at her with sparkly eyes.
"Whoa whoa! Who are you? You're so strong!" The first Zeno said with eyes gleaming in childlike awe. This was one of those universes where Zeno was basically just an overpowered child and nothing more. Not some sadistic monster or ancient deity or anything.
"Yeah yeah, the strongest I've ever seen!" The second Zeno said with equally awed eyes.
"I'm Gwen, and thanks. You two are pretty strong yourselves" Gwen said with a small smile, the ones partaking in the tournament all looked up in shock, at least, the ones that saw her appear up there.
"How come you're here? We've never gotten a visitor like you before!" Zeno 1 asked, curious.
"I just thought I should meet the ones that rules this part of creation. That and I thought it'd be fun to watch the tournament with the two of you, if you will have me" Gwen offered, as the two glanced at one another before nodding rapidly.
"Yes yes! You've gotta join us now!" Zeno 2 exclaimed, as a third seat appeared in the middle of them, and Gwen chuckled, sitting in between them as they continued to look up at them in awe.
"Oh, here here! This is a Godpad, you can use it to track the tournament with us!" Zeno 1 said, summoning a tablet like device and handing it to Gwen who glanced down at it.
'Huh, pretty decent' Gwen thought, a little impressed with the technology inside of it, as she listened as the Grand Priest continued to explain the tournament and its rules, while the two Zeno's were practically buzzing in excitement in their seats.
She had to admit that it was a little amusing.
But finally, after explaining the rules for a little while, it was time for the tournament to begin, and as the fighting started, Gwen watched with only one thought on her mind.
'...Let's see what you can do, Leriac'
