The Gods Turned Against Me? I Won't Put Up With It!
"What?!" Lavender whirled around, his poisonous hands crossed in front of him.
A loud 'bang!!!'
Son Gohan a powerful whip kick to Lavender's hands, the terrifying force instantly sending Lavender flying back to the edge of the ring.
"You... you bastard...!!" Feeling the pain in his hands, Lavender's pupils contracted sharply, and deep terror flashed in his eyes.
The bones in his hands felt like they were broken, and he was unable to move them.
This guy was incredibly ruthless; with just one strike, he crippled his hands!
"You must already understand the difference in strength between us."
"Just admit defeat, you can't beat me."
Son Gohan's eyes were cold as he spoke in a deep voice.
An opponent like Lavender was no match for him at all; he didn't even need to transform into Super Saiyan.
After observing him, he discovered that Lavender's strength was even inferior to that of Red Wolf Basil from before.
"What did you say?!" Lavender was furious, her face contorted with rage at being underestimated.
As the second-in-command of the Trio of Danger, no one in Universe 9 dares to underestimate him except for the God of God of Destruction, the Supreme Kai, and his older brother.
His poison is arguably the best in the universe!
Now, to be mocked by this young upstart is simply unacceptable!
Even with his hands crippled, he still had poison gas to attack. Lavender brewed a deep poison gas in his stomach, a sinister light flashing in his eyes, and he exhaled poison gas from his mouth.
"I'm going to rot your body and bones!!" Lavender brewed poison in his stomach, and the next second, a storm of poison spewed from his mouth, heading straight for Son Gohan.
Seeing this, Son Gohan's eyes turned cold, and he condensed an energy blast in his right hand and threw it out.
A whooshing sound rang out.
The energy blast pierced through the purple poisonous mist and landed precisely in Lavender's mouth.
[What?!?!?!] Lavender sensed something was wrong and tried to spit out the energy blast in his mouth, but Son Gohan unexpectedly detonated it.
'Boom!!!' The energy blast exploded in Lavender's mouth, instantly sending flesh and blood flying everywhere.
Lavender's teeth were all shattered, and poisonous blood flew everywhere.
By this time, Lavender was delirious from the explosion and was teetering on the edge of the ring, on the verge of collapsing at any moment.
Pressing his advantage, Son Gohan swiftly charged forward, rushing to Lavender with lightning speed and unleashing an unstoppable punch.
A muffled 'bang!!!'
The heavy blow landed squarely on Lavender's abdomen. The terrifying force churned Lavender's internal organs, and poisonous water mixed with blood gushed out.
This blow pushed Lavender's consciousness to the brink of collapse.
Son Gohan followed up with an elbow strike to the back of Lavender's neck, at which point Lavender's consciousness completely collapsed.
Lavender, having lost control of his consciousness, collapsed to the ground like a lifeless object.
If Son Gohan hadn't held back, that energy blast would have been enough to kill Lavender.
"The winner, Universe 7!" The Grand Priest on the platform announced the verdict.
"Huh? Is that all?" The Omni- Zeno grumbled incessantly from his throne.
This wasn't the exciting battle he wanted to see; it was utterly boring.
"Please wait a moment, Lord Zeno."
"Third contestants from both universes, please step onto the stage quickly for the third match," the Grand Priest announced.
At the platform of Universe 9.
The God of Destruction Sidra, the Supreme Kai Roh, and the Black Wolf Bergamo were so shocked that they were speechless.
After a brief moment of shock, Supreme Kai Roh became furious, repeatedly blaming Basil and Lavender for their incompetence.
Losing both matches, and by a landslide, has left Universe 9 utterly humiliated.
The God of Destruction, Sidra, was filled with rage. If it weren't for the presence of other God of Destruction and the Zeno, he would have destroyed Lavender and Basil no matter what.
So embarrassing!!
"Supreme Kai, God of Destruction, please calm your anger! Please leave the third match to me!" Seeing the situation was dire, Bergamo hurriedly knelt on one knee and pleaded with the two gods.
This was also a chance for his two brothers to survive.
"Hmph!!" The God of Destruction, Sidra, snorted coldly, offering no reply, but his face was extremely grim, and a hint of killing intent flashed in his dark eyes.
"Bergamo, we absolutely cannot lose the third match, understand?!" Supreme Kai Roh shouted.
"I understand." Bergamo nodded repeatedly, not daring to say no.
He also harbored resentment towards Universe 7 for causing his two brothers to suffer such a humiliating disgrace. In the third match, he was determined to make Universe 7 pay the price.
At the platform of Universe 7.
Son Gohan returns victorious from the match.
Beerus smiled without saying a word; his expression revealed his true feelings.
Clearly, they were very satisfied with Son Gohan's performance.
"Well done, Gohan," Vegeta praised.
Rayleigh's decisive fighting style, dealing with enemies cleanly and efficiently, earned him Vegeta's high praise.
The current Son Gohan has truly become a warrior, much like him.
"Not at all, you flatter me, Uncle Vegeta," Son Gohan modestly, scratching his head.
"I thought you'd play along with that guy, looks like I was wrong."
"Then it's my turn."
Son Goku took a step forward and leaped onto the arena.
With the appearance of Son Goku, Bergamo, the leader of the Trio of Danger from Universe 9, also made his appearance.
The final battle of this preliminary skirmish is about to begin!
Just as Son Goku was about to attack, Bergamo's actions exceeded his expectations.
Bergamo, who has attracted the attention of all the gods in the universe, has taken his verbal skills to the extreme.
With his silver tongue, he tricked the gods and inexplicably pinned a bunch of baseless accusations on Son Goku.
They say the Tournament of Power started because of him, and that he was responsible for the destruction of the entire universe, making him the sinner of the entire universe.
After his initial charade, Bergamo even adopted a saintly demeanor, posing as a savior.
"You... you're not that strong, but you're quite good at slandering people." Son Goku was in a very bad mood.
Although he didn't care about what Bergamo said, even the most good-tempered person couldn't stand being inexplicably burdened with a bunch of accusations.
The key point is that the God of Destruction and Supreme Kai from other universes were also persuaded by Bergamo and began to target him.
Not only that, even the pure-hearted Zeno was persuaded by Bergamo, giving Bergamo a chance, and also giving a chance to the eight universes participating in the Tournament of Power.
