Broly The Saiyan Of Legend - 238 A Ruse
Jiren glared daggers at Broly, who was struggling against the time cage. “Unbelievable!” Jiren turned around and scanned the battlefield before he locked onto the broken pillar in the middle.
Hit put all his energy into his attack as he pushed Broly to the edge of the stage. He knew he couldn’t hold him, but it was possible for him to push him off the stage!
Kefla hesitated to help as she couldn’t bring herself to push Broly off after being ambushed. Hit knew of the female Saiyans personality and therefore dismissed her.
It would be hampering her motivation and will to fight if she went against her morals and beat Broly, while relying on Hit’s ambush.
After Hit dismissed her and said that she needed to knock off the other warriors instead of helping, she gave in and flew away to battle others.
If it was not Broly, who was in this position, she would have quickly knocked him out already, but she couldn’t bear with it when it came to her Master.
Hit was a lot stronger after the initial encounter with Broly and now all his strength was put into pushing Broly off the stage. His time ability was manifesting itself in his hand as he used it to repel Broly.
Broly gritted his teeth, veins bulged on his skin as he tried to break out of time, but his strength was not enough to break out of Hit’s ability. However, he still could remain on stage.
Hit was getting anxious as he burned everything he has, but it still wasn’t enough. Suddenly a ki beam passed Hit and directly landed on Broly, rapidly pushing him to the edge of the stage.
Unexpectedly, at this crucial moment Anilaza had finally decided to give a hand. Broly was giving his all as his eyes were bloodshot and the ki broke parts of the time cage.
His feet were deeply embedded in the ground, but it couldn’t stop his momentum in the slightest. He sensed the edge coming closer and he visibly began to panic.
“I will not fall here!” Broly roared as his ki burned fiercely breaking apart the time cage, while pushing away Anilaza’s beam.
Just as he was about to fend off the attacks, some cannon fodder that were hit by Broly and Jiren’s battle joined the fray and attacked Broly.
The edge of the stage trembled as it broke apart due to the onslaught of attacks before finally crumbling apart completely.
With no ground to support him Broly’s body shot into the lower void.
Broly was seen trying to use the debris to jump up the stage again, but the attacks didn’t stop and pushed him into the void until he disappeared.
Hit fell on his knees as he had completely exhausted himself in that exchange, but he couldn’t rest as the other warriors were already heading his way.
Kefla was already engaging Anilaza. However, the two were equal in strength and Kefla could therefore spend no attention to the others that headed for Hit.
“Why isn’t Broly in the spectator seats?” No one knew who asked it, but as they looked towards universe 7 spectator seats, he was nowhere to be seen.
The other mortals on the seats had deep frowns on their face. Only a God of destruction and an angel were smiling brightly.
Universe 3’s, 6’s and 11’s gods of destruction were looking puzzled at Beerus, who suddenly laughed out loud. Their angel had a neutral look, no one could tell what they were thinking.
Every other god gave Beerus a knowing look before they looked on the battlefield again. Only Beerus roaring laughter and Whis chuckling could be heard until Jiren spoke out through his teeth.
“That can’t be. Strength is justice! Strength is absolute! I won’t lose against you! All is meaningless without victory. To be defeated is to lose everything! Just like then…”
Jiren seemed to go through a flashback as he halted his speech for a second.
“I won’t go through that again! No matter what you throw at me. Illusions or other schemes, I will smash it apart with my strength!”
Jiren’s ki suddenly exploded outwards into a raging flame covering almost the complete remaining stage.
His muscles grew in size, completely tearing apart his suit that covered his upper body. A strange red glow appeared around his body.
This symbolized him using his soul to boost his strength even further. He had broken through his mortal body and was now able to use his soul to reach further heights!
The shockwave of him releasing his aura pushed all those with trivial strength off the stage. Hit couldn’t resist at all either as he was drained of his energy.
The only participants left were Kefla, Anilaza, Vegeta and Goku. The others of universe 7 had long been knocked off by Toppo’s rampage, after he used his Hakai energy.
They had used all their combined effort and it still was Vegeta, who broke through to Super Saiyan God Beyond to knock Toppo off the stage.
Following Jiren’s glare to the middle pillar, one was able to see a figure sitting leisurely on a broken piece of pillar. Broly was dangling his legs as he watched Jiren with interest.
Champa, Belmod, Mosco and their participants were shocked into silence. They seemed to finally understand what was going on the whole time.
Broly smiled as he enjoyed the reactions of those around him. The flaming pillar and the immense ki that was leaked when he transformed was just a diversion.
He had already mastered Super Saiyan 4, when he had battled Hit in the tournament against universe 6.
He wouldn’t need to make such a commotion for a transformation that he had already mastered long ago, even before he had reconstructed his body.
Due to his violent ki he had always put effort to control his ki and if he wanted to no one would be able to react, much less attack him, while he was transforming.
Furthermore, due to his body perfectly supporting his soul, his soul-based illusion had reached a deeper level and even god of destruction would fall trap to it.
He now was able to use a part of his energy to create an image that was no different to himself in the eyes of others.
In some sense they were fighting him for real, even though it was only part of his energy.
Of course, he couldn’t fool every god at the same time, so he focused on the ones that still had participants in the tournament.
The ones that only watched would obviously not say anything as it didn’t affect them if either side won or not.
Broly had taken his time to lay out his illusion and used such a grand transformation to cover it up and in the end only Jiren, who increased his strength as he exchanged fists with Broly’s illusion, was able to tell that something was off.
Broly patted the dust off his knees as he stood up and looked at Jiren, who had broken his limit and even used his soul to reach new heights.
Now his illusions would be trivial in front of the current Jiren. The gods of destruction had failed to realize that even they were trapped in an illusion.
One had to say that they were suppressing their power, so it was easier for them to be fooled. Only the angels were fully aware from the beginning what was going on.
Of course, this included Lord Zeno. Although he seemed like a weak child, he was still the Omni-King. His eyes wouldn’t easily be clouded by illusions of that degree.
Broly put up his hand and several ki blast shot out high in the sky before homing on Kefla and Anilaza.
They were stunned by the sudden attack but quickly counterattacked with all their might. Their attacks didn’t last more than a few seconds before they were obliterated.
They tried to push against the attack but were easily carried out of the arena into the void with no suspense.
With that all of universe 6’s participants were knocked off. Beerus had long ago stopped laughing and had a little brother moment with Champa, but Broly didn’t pay attention to that.
He had watched Jiren’s fight with his illusion and couldn’t help but praise his fine ki control.
There was no doubt that Jiren was the strongest that Broly had ever fought. Even most gods of destruction weren’t able to defeat Jiren with certainty.
A mortal that had reached such a height was unusual to say the least. Broly stretched a bit as he hadn’t moved his body since transforming.
Jiren didn’t wait for him to finish and directly dashed towards Broly and punched out.
