Chapter 423: Goku vs Jiren (Part 2)
Chapter 423: Goku vs Jiren (Part 2)
"It's hopeless. Goku is simply no match for that Jiren."
In the spectator stands, Beerus clutched his forehead.
That Jiren was far too powerful—let alone Goku, even if he himself went out there, he had no confidence in victory!
Just a mere human warrior—how in the world did he grow to such a terrifying level?!!
At the same time, the entire arena remained deathly silent. Everyone was watching the battle between Son Goku and Jiren, watching as Goku, no matter how much he powered up and exploded his strength, was still utterly crushed one-sidedly by Jiren.
He can't win. Son Goku absolutely can't win—this was a fact that everyone had already come to understand...
"Ha… ha…"
"To think he's really become this strong."
"My whole body is trembling uncontrollably—I can't even tell myself if it's from excitement or fear."
Panting heavily, Goku grinned as he spoke.
Even though he hadn't even fought Jiren for a full minute, the energy he had consumed already surpassed everything he'd used in the entire first half of the match.
Jiren simply looked at Goku calmly, neither speaking nor taking the opportunity to strike while he was down.
Like a lofty, invincible king, not even the scurrying of ants by the roadside would interest him—only when the opponent provoked him would he respond with a fatal counterattack.
And without a doubt, even the powerful Son Goku was little different from those ants in Jiren's eyes.
"Heh heh, at this rate I'll definitely be the one to lose."
"No choice… I'll have to use my final technique."
Wiping the corner of his mouth, Goku dispelled his Super Saiyan Blue transformation. With a few leaps, he landed on a high platform, then raised both hands towards the sky:
"Everyone, I beg of you—please, lend me your energy!"
"It's the Spirit Bomb, Goku's going to use the Spirit Bomb!"
Realizing Goku's intent, Krillin on the spectator stands exclaimed with joy.
"Dad, use my energy too!"
"Count me in!"
"Let me give you some of my energy too."
"Hohoho, that technique, huh… really brings back some bitter memories."
"Alright, I'll give you some of my energy too, Son Goku!"
The people from Universe 7 all offered some of their energy to Goku, and immediately, a massive energy sphere began rapidly forming above his head.
"Yuujin, Yuujin! He can use the Spirit Bomb just like us!"
Watching Goku below, Gokumi said in surprise.
"Yeah, that's the Spirit Bomb."
With a slight smile at the corner of his lips, Yuujin replied.
The Spirit Bomb was a technique created by the North Kai and ranked above the Kaioken. It allowed the user to gather the energy of the sky, earth, oceans, and even all living beings to create an immensely powerful energy ball. The more energy gathered, the stronger the bomb would be.
In Yuujin's universe, even powerful techniques like Kaioken could be openly taught to his Red Silk Girls and talented martial artists. But the Spirit Bomb was the one move Yuujin deemed forbidden—only he and Gokumi were ever allowed to use it.
After clashing with Jiren, Goku must've realized that his own power was no match, forcing him to bring out the Spirit Bomb—his final trump card.
"This isn't good—the gathering time is too long."
Looking at the yet-incomplete Spirit Bomb, Goku revealed a look of anxiety.
When using the Spirit Bomb, he couldn't multitask. If Jiren attacked now, he wouldn't be able to defend himself at all.
However, the proud Jiren disdained taking advantage of such openings.
"I'll wait for you!"
Jiren spoke, stunning Goku for a moment.
"I said—I'll wait for you!"
"That's a special move for you, isn't it?"
"Use your full strength, Son Goku!"
Even the spectators had to admire Jiren's boldness. Even if they didn't know what the Spirit Bomb was, they could see at a glance that it was a dangerous technique. Yet Jiren remained completely unafraid, giving Goku the time he needed to prepare.
No—that wasn't mere boldness. It was absolute confidence born from absolute strength!
"Heh, heh heh… you're really generous."
Feeling some relief inside, Goku laughed.
But suddenly sensing something, he looked in astonishment toward the Pillar of Time.
There, atop the Pillar of Time—Yuujin had actually raised his hand, lending his energy to Goku!
"You…"
Not just Goku—everyone in the arena was dumbfounded by Yuujin's action.
This was a battle between Goku and Jiren. It was normal for Universe 7's people to give him energy—but why was someone from Universe 13 getting involved?
Of course, Yuujin could feel all those strange looks cast his way. But he didn't need to explain what he wanted to do.
"Everyone, give some of your energy to Son Goku."
"Rylibeu, you girls too."
Yuujin said to Gokumi's group of women and the captured girls from the Lilibet squad.
"Well, if it's Master's command…"
"Yes, Lord Yuujin!"
Even though they didn't understand Yuujin's reasoning, they never questioned his orders. So they also raised their hands, sending some of their energy to Goku. And instantly, the Spirit Bomb Goku was forming swelled in size once more.
"Not sure why—but thanks, everyone from Universe 13!"
Feeling the continuous surge of energy, the invigorated Goku expressed his gratitude to Yuujin's group.
"What exactly is that Universe 13 Yuujin guy trying to do?"
"Not sure—his actions have been strange from the very beginning."
"Well, no matter what his motives are, sharing power with Goku is a good thing. Goku's Spirit Bomb is our last hope of defeating Jiren."
"Goku—don't you dare lose. You hear me, Goku?!"
In the stands, Whis and the Old Supreme Kai from Universe 7 spoke, while Beerus even stood up, shouting loudly to Goku.
The atmosphere in the entire arena had reached its peak. Feeling the increasingly powerful pressure from the Spirit Bomb, even the Supreme Kais and Gods of Destruction from other universes began showing expressions of shock.
That a low-level human warrior could gather this level of energy—it was simply unbelievable!
Watching the almost-complete Spirit Bomb, Yuujin atop the Pillar of Time was also filled with anticipation.
The Spirit Bomb was a technique with infinite potential. If it could gather the energy of the entire Earth—or even the entire universe—it could obliterate not just Jiren, but even beings on the level of the Grand Priest.
But since Goku had only gathered the energy of a few Universe 7 contestants, the resulting Spirit Bomb might still be insufficient to defeat Jiren. Yuujin understood this even without seeing the result, which was why he and the Gokumi squad had also contributed some energy—to let Goku form an even stronger Spirit Bomb.
Jiren—let me see it too. Under this supercharged Spirit Bomb, can you still maintain your undefeated, invincible form?
To be continued…
