Hit, My Brother

"Yes!" Hit bowed, then returned to the stands.

Lu Fan tossed the Cola to Hit.

Hit caught it in both hands, but didn't seem to intend to open it right away.

"Can I save it for later?" Hit asked.

"Of course. The Cola is yours now, so you can drink it however you like," Lu Fan said with a smile. "Even if you drink it upside down, I won't stop you."

Hit: "..."

I'm not going to drink it upside down.

"Hit, actually, I've always thought of you as my brother," Lu Fan said with a sigh. "Your head is so distinctive. It looks just like my brother's."

Hit looked utterly confused.

My head looks like your brother's?

What does that mean?

"Do you mean... I look a lot like your brother?" Hit instinctively assumed that Lu Fan thought he resembled his brother.

"Mm-hmm." Lu Fan nodded vigorously.

"You have a brother?" Vados looked at Lu Fan in surprise.

"What are you talking about, Vados? Of course I have a brother." Lu Fan rolled his eyes.

"Whatever you say." Vados shook her head, still a little baffled.

Even if you do have a brother, could he really look like Hit?

You're not even the same species.

What was Lu Fan up to now?

Was he going out of his way to get on Hit's good side?

Well, considering how things were developing, Hit might very well become the God of Destruction of the New Universe.

In terms of both strength and temperament, Hit was a good fit for the role.

Vados said no more.

"Vados, you'll see my brother someday," Lu Fan said.

"Sure. If you get the chance, introduce him to me," Vados said with a nod.

"Mm-hmm," Lu Fan replied.

Champa also looked utterly confused.

Hit's head looks like your brother's?

There was something strange about the way you put that.

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Lu Fan," Hit said.

"Don't mention it, Hit," Lu Fan said with a smile.

"The second semifinal match will be between Majin Buu of Universe 7 and Zamasu of Universe 10," the Grand Priest announced.

Buu and Zamasu stepped onto the arena together.

"Begin!" the Grand Priest shouted.

"Smack!"

A flash of light flared in Zamasu's hand, and a blade of energy appeared.

Buu stared at it, wide-eyed.

What a fascinating technique.

"Thwack!"

Zamasu moved with incredible speed and plunged the blade of energy straight into Majin Buu's body.

"Ugh..." Majin Buu looked down at the blade sticking out of him, but acted as though nothing had happened.

"I, Zamasu, will be the one to win this match!" Zamasu shouted, then yanked the blade back out.

"Bam!"

Then Zamasu leaped forward and kicked Majin Buu in the face.

Majin Buu staggered back a step.

"Raaah!"

Zamasu unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks against Majin Buu.

Majin Buu seemed unable to fight back.

"Hey!"

Zamasu threw another powerful punch.

"Thud!"

Majin Buu fell to the ground, smoke already rising from his body.

"I've won." Zamasu smiled, looking triumphant.

"Smack!"

Majin Buu got back to his feet as if nothing had happened.

Zamasu's smile gradually froze.

"That hurt a little..." A murderous look appeared on Majin Buu's face.

"Smack!"

The wound where Zamasu had stabbed him healed with ease.

"What? This guy can regenerate!" Zamasu's eyes widened.

"How should I deal with you?" Majin Buu held out his hand and aimed it at Zamasu from a distance.

Majin Buu had figured it out, too. This guy wasn't anything special.

You've been hitting me for ages, and I can barely feel it.

Well... that stab with the blade hurt a little.

"Whoosh!"

A streak of light suddenly shot from Majin Buu's hand, roaring toward Zamasu.

"Oh no!"

Zamasu cried out. Without the slightest hesitation, he shot straight into the sky.

"Hey!"

The next moment, Zamasu swept both hands downward, and a powerful divine force swiftly enveloped Majin Buu.

Majin Buu seemed to freeze in place, unable to move at all.

Zamasu let out a small sigh of relief.

Finally, I've pinned down this fatso.

I have to eliminate him quickly. This fatso is stronger than I thought.

"Whoosh!"

Zamasu dove down from the sky and kicked at Majin Buu.

"Blah blah blah..."

As Zamasu hurtled toward him, Majin Buu suddenly moved and pulled a face at him.

Zamasu had been about to attack Majin Buu, but then he saw a huge face right in front of him...

Zamasu was scared out of his wits and hurriedly stopped in midair.

"Whoosh!"

Majin Buu shot upward and appeared directly above Zamasu.

"What? He's so fast!" Zamasu cried.

"Thump!"

Majin Buu brought his palm down, swatting Zamasu out of the sky and into the ground.

"Smack!"

Zamasu's body collided with the arena in an intimate embrace.

The impact left Zamasu dazed and badly injured.

"Damn it!" Zamasu gritted his teeth. He managed to get halfway up before collapsing to the ground again.

"Smack!"

Majin Buu descended from the sky and landed opposite Zamasu.

"Grrr..."

Majin Buu's stomach suddenly growled.

"I'm hungry. I'm going to eat you!" Buu said.

"What did you say? Do you know who you're talking to?" Zamasu looked up at Majin Buu in shock and anger.

"Turn into a cookie!" Buu said, and the feeler on his head flashed with purple-white light.

"Smack!"

The purple-white beam hit Zamasu directly.

"Smack!"

Zamasu's body quickly changed shape, soon turning into a human-shaped cookie.

The cookie rolled onto the ground.

Humming a little tune, Majin Buu walked over and picked it up, ready to pop it into his mouth.

"You idiot! Killing is against the rules! Stop right now and turn him back! I'll get you something to eat!" Beerus shouted at Majin Buu.

"Uh..." Majin Buu paused, suddenly realizing that he was still in the middle of a match on the arena.

If I eat him, he'll die.

Then I won't get any Cola.

Not worth it...

I'll wait until later to eat him.

"Smack!"

Another flash of purple-white light appeared on Majin Buu's head and quickly struck the cookie.

The cookie immediately took shape again, returning to Zamasu's form.
