With Universe 11 gone, everyone from Universe 7, the last remaining universe, rose to their feet, ready to face their final fate.
After all, no one believed that Son Goku, their sole remaining fighter, could defeat Lin Chen on his own.
Even Son Goku himself thought so.
In the ring, he looked at Lin Chen, suddenly dropped out of Perfected Ultra Instinct, then scratched his head and smiled at him.
"Big Brother Lin Chen, you really are incredible. With only me left, I might as well forfeit... Ah, it's a shame I'll never get another chance to fight you."
Lin Chen couldn't help smiling. "Don't worry. We'll definitely have another chance to fight..."
"Huh?" Son Goku froze for a moment. "But isn't Universe 7 going to be erased?"
"Erased?"
Lin Chen shook his head, then turned toward Lazuli in the stands and quietly said something.
Hearing his words, Son Goku paused, then understood what Lin Chen meant.
"Oh! So we can do that... Honestly, Big Brother Lin Chen, you should've said so sooner. We wouldn't have had to worry so much."
With that, Son Goku couldn't help getting excited. "Well, in that case, how about we fight some more? Big Brother Lin Chen, I want to experience that move you just used again."
"That was an incredible technique. I still haven't figured it out."
As he spoke, Son Goku calmed his mind, his gaze sharpening as he entered Perfected Ultra Instinct once more.
In the stands, Vegeta and the others had seen Son Goku seemingly give up, only to exchange a few words with Lin Chen and then return to Ultra Instinct. They were utterly confused.
"What the hell is Kakarot trying to do? Hasn't he given up yet?" Vegeta asked in bewilderment.
Son Gohan turned to Piccolo beside him.
