“Oh? So everyone’s coming for me, huh?”
The moment competition began, as expected, people from several major universes began to rush towards Lin Chen’s direction.
What surprised him, however, was that not only the universes that had already allied themselves but even Universe 7’s people joined in the assault against him.
“Goku, what’s the meaning of this?” Lin Chen looked at Goku and the others surrounding him from all directions, including representatives from the other seven universes, with some confusion.
Was this a case of everyone turning against him?
“Brother Lin Chen, sorry, this is Beerus-sama’s instruction! We don’t stand a chance unless we take you down with everyone’s full power!” Goku said, feeling apologetic.
“Sorry, Your Majesty, this is all for the sake of Universe 7!”
Vegeta stepped forward, assuming an attacking stance.
Then there was Frieza, Lin Luo, Taro, and the rest of Universe 7’s contestants, all wearing apologetic expressions as they prepared to attack.
“Lord Lin Chen, this is Beerus-sama’s order!”
“Dad, I’ve been wanting to show you my power for a while now!”
“Dad, sorry!”
“Uncle Lin Chen…”
“Buu wants to eat something…”
The contestants from Universe 7 explained their actions shamelessly.
Even Lazuli couldn’t help but shout, “Lin Chen, brace yourself! We won’t hold back!”
The people from other universes, seeing Universe 7’s arrival, didn’t show much surprise.
“Cabba, Lin Luo and others are just as Miss Vados said!” Caulifla whispered to Cabba beside her.
“Yeah,” Cabba nodded.
In fact, before the competition began, people from each universe learned from their respective God of Destruction that in this Tournament of Power, the seven universes would act together to eliminate Lin Chen first.
They learned this from their respective God of Destruction.
Though not confirmed, Universe 7 would likely join them in unified action when the time came.
After all, the proof of Lin Chen’s strength had already been given by Universe 4 and Universe 9. Without concentrating all their strength, it would be impossible to defeat him.
Universe 7 must be even more aware of this, so if they don’t want to exhaust themselves before even dealing with Lin Chen, they would definitely join this “Lin Chen Crusade Team”!
“Now that everyone’s goal is the same, let’s begin!”
It was unclear who took the lead, but soon, people from every universe began their respective preparations for battle.
Powering up, transforming, gathering energy—everyone’s attack was directly focused on Lin Chen.
“As expected, it seems all the contestants intend to eliminate Lin Chen first,” Grand Priest remarked indifferently.
“Wow, is Lin Chen going to be attacked by everyone?”
“Will Lin Chen be eliminated?”
The two Zenos also looked curious, unsure of how Lin Chen would respond.
Lin Chen rubbed his nose, also somewhat surprised.
Though he expected to be targeted by everyone, he didn’t anticipate Universe 7 joining in.
This was troublesome.
Dealing with several individuals from Universe 7 would be difficult, like Broly, Goku, and the others.
Then there was Lazuli; although Lin Chen hadn’t sparred with her in a long time, he heard her strength had improved significantly.
It was one thing dealing with others, but if Lazuli stood before him, should he attack or not?
It’s really a case of damned if you do, damned if you don’t!
Forget it, I should not worry about that for now. I should stick to the original plan and take care of the people from Universe 4 and Universe 9 first…
In fact, from the very beginning of this match, Lin Chen had already made up his mind.
To think that Universe 4 and Universe 9 would dare to sneak attack him, they must be prepared to pay the price.
His butcher’s knife would start with these two universes.
With this in mind, a smirk formed on Lin Chen’s lips.
He straightened up and gestured to those around him.
“Come, I’m going to beat 80 today!”
The people around him were momentarily stunned before their expressions immediately turned fierce.
“Let’s go!”
In an instant, people from the eight universes all acted simultaneously.
However, though they acted at the same time, the strategies of each universe’s people varied.
Some charged directly for close combat.
Others launched energy blasts from a distance towards Lin Chen.
Each had their own approach.
But upon closer inspection, it could be observed that the universes primarily opting for ranged attacks were the stronger ones, such as Universe 11, Universe 7, and Universe 6.
And also Universe 4 and Universe 9.
In the first three universes, there were experts who didn’t want to engage in close combat with Lin Chen right away, as it would easily expose their own strength and they wouldn’t easily be able to discern Lin Chen’s depth.
The latter two universes already had shadows in their hearts regarding Lin Chen, so they didn’t dare to act rashly.
The ones who charged forward were from Universe 2, Universe 3, and Universe 10.
The strengths of these three universes varied greatly, with some having power surpassing Super Saiyan 3 and even approaching the level of the Saiyan Saiyan God, while others were only at the level of a Super Saiyan.
Seeing them charge forward, Lin Chen immediately transformed into his Legendary Super Saiyan form to meet them.
“Roar!”
With a roar, a shimmering green energy shield appeared, blocking the long-range attacks from the other universes.
Then Lin Chen swept his hand, conjuring a greenish energy wall that swept towards the people from Universes 2, 3, and 10.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In an instant, the people from these universes were swept off the arena, none able to withstand the impact of the energy wall.
“So powerful!”
Most of the contestants who saw Lin Chen fight for the first time displayed shocked expressions.
Many of them initially thought that it was an exaggeration for all universes to unite against Lin Chen, but now they’ve realized that’s not the case.
This Lin Chen really has some skills!
“It’s no good, we have to go all out! Everyone, unleash your power!”
Auras of various colors erupted in the arena.
The strength of many contestants from different universes had once again increased.
And those who were previously engaging in long-range attacks, like Goku and others, realized that ordinary attacks were futile and began transforming into their strongest forms one after another.
Super Saiyan Blue, Golden Form, Legendary Super Saiyan 2, one after another transformation was completed.
Just as they were about to attack, they saw Lin Chen suddenly raising a glowing sphere towards the sky.
“Huh? What’s that?” Some people shouted in confusion.
But suddenly, they all heard Vegeta from Universe 7 shout.
“Oh no! That’s an artificial moon! His Majesty is going to turn into a Great Ape!”
Before others could react, the glowing sphere had already turned into a small moon in the arena.
“Lin Luo, Taro, both of you keep out of sight, don’t transform at this moment!” Vegeta loudly warned.
At that moment, a roar suddenly erupted from the arena.
Immediately after, a golden-furred Golden Great Ape appeared in the center of the arena.
And those who had witnessed the whole process knew that this golden gorilla was none other than…
“Wow! Lin Chen turned into the Great Ape!”
“So cool!”
The voices of the two Zenos suddenly resounded.
