This Is Definitely Not Dragon Ball!!

Chapter 432: Kaio-Ken Times One Thousand (Part 1)

"That's Jiren for you, the pride of our Universe 11."

"Even those guys from Universe 13 are no match for Jiren, even if they all ganged up together—so useless, hahaha!"

Landing beside Jiren, Toppo spoke, and Dyspo laughed heartily, sweeping away all his earlier frustration.

"They are all respectable opponents."

Casting a glance at Dyspo, Jiren said calmly.

The laughter halted, and Dyspo couldn't help but look a bit awkward.

In truth, he was just running his mouth. He clearly knew how terrifying the fighters from Universe 13 were.

One could say, if Jiren hadn't exploded with potential in a desperate situation and broken past his limits, then the ones dominating this arena wouldn't have been Universe 11—but Universe 13!

"Besides, they haven't lost yet."

Jiren added, causing both Toppo and Dyspo's expressions to change.

At that moment, a rustling noise came from the rubble. Then, a figure stood up, pushing aside the shattered steel debris piled over them.

It was Chi-Chi!

"Tch, it's that woman. She gave us a scare."

Relaxing slightly, Dyspo and Toppo both quietly sighed in relief.

They remembered that this woman from Universe 13, named Chi-Chi, was the weakest among all their competitors.

If it had been Yuujin, Gokumi, or those other guys, they'd probably have had another hard fight. But if it was just Chi-Chi, there was nothing to fear.

Still, it begged the question: all the powerful warriors from Universe 13 were down—why was this weakest woman still standing?

After a moment of observation, Toppo and Dyspo quickly reached a conclusion—it was that guy Yuujin who had protected her during the explosion earlier.

—Meanwhile, the scene shifted to Chi-Chi—

"Yuujin, Gokumi, everyone…"

Breathing heavily, Chi-Chi looked at her fallen comrades around her, her mind a complete blank.

How did this happen? Why did this happen? They had clearly been on the verge of victory—so why had things turned out this way?

Looking at the gravely injured Yuujin, Gokumi, and Vegea… Looking at the unconscious Buu, No. 21, and Sharuru… Looking at Broly and Super 18 who were still half-buried under the ruins…

Chi-Chi's heart ached with unimaginable sorrow.

They had been through countless battles together, defeating one powerful enemy after another—when had they ever been pushed to such a desperate edge?

Jiren—it was all because of that Jiren!!!

In that instant, a towering rage surged in Chi-Chi's heart!

Everyone else had fallen—but she was still standing.

So—she would fight on, carrying their will!

"Jiren, the battle isn't over. Universe 13 has not fallen!"

"The battle continues!"

Step by step, Chi-Chi walked toward Jiren, her expression colder than ever before.

The stormy aura swirling around her reflected the fury in her heart. With every step she took, the rubble and debris beneath her feet trembled violently, as though about to break free from gravity and shoot into the sky.

"Woman, stop overestimating yourself. All your comrades have fallen—what could you possibly do alone?"

Dyspo said, with a mocking tone—though his words weren't wrong.

Universe 13 had already been defeated. Even if Chi-Chi remained standing, it wouldn't change that fact!

But Chi-Chi showed no hesitation, no confusion. She kept walking toward Jiren—one unwavering step after another.

"I accept your challenge."

Jiren spoke up.

Ignoring the stunned Toppo and Dyspo, he continued:

"Proud warrior, state your name."

"Universe 13—Chi-Chi!"

Standing before Jiren, Chi-Chi assumed a fighting stance and gave her name.

"I will remember your name—along with your comrades'."

"Come!"

With a solemn expression, Jiren took his stance as well.

"Tch, what a delusional woman."

In the spectator stands, Universe 11's God of Destruction, Belmod, sneered with disdain.

"That's not delusion, Lord Belmod."

"That fighter Chi-Chi is a true warrior—radiating with dazzling brilliance."

"Look, everyone is watching her."

Angel Marcarita spoke, her tone carrying genuine admiration for Chi-Chi, who dared to challenge Jiren.

Belmod looked around and found that indeed, all the Gods and participants from the other universes were quietly watching Chi-Chi in the arena.

Although everyone knew she stood no chance against Jiren, not a single one of them laughed. Instead, in that silence, they showed respect—respect for a true warrior.

Though it left a bitter taste, Belmod had to admit that the fighters of Universe 13 were truly remarkable.

Still, an enemy was an enemy. He would never sympathize with or pity them.

Universe 11 must survive. They must become the final victors of this Tournament of Power!

Under everyone's watchful gaze, the auras of Chi-Chi and Jiren clashed violently—

One side like the vast starry sky—deep and unfathomable.

The other like a blazing sun—resilient and brilliant.

As the tension reached its peak, Chi-Chi was the first to act—

"Kaio-Ken!!"

A blazing red aura erupted from her body—Chi-Chi had unleashed the Kaio-Ken!

100x… 200x… 300x…

Her power skyrocketed madly—Chi-Chi pushed the Kaio-Ken to her limit: 500x!

The fiery red energy around her turned blade-like, radiating such heat that even from a distance, it made the skin tingle with pain.

Without hesitation, Chi-Chi stomped down and burst forward, launching a ferocious attack at Jiren—

"Haaahhhh!!!"

Under the power of Kaio-Ken x500, Chi-Chi's strength surpassed even the Super Saiyan 3 forms of Yuujin and the others. Her seemingly delicate fists each carried mountain-shattering force.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

She rained blows upon Jiren's body like a violent storm.

But—it was useless.

Such attacks had no effect on Jiren whatsoever. He didn't even bother to defend, simply letting Chi-Chi strike him freely!

After tens of thousands of punches, Chi-Chi finally stopped and leapt back to put some distance between them.

Her arms were trembling slightly, and seeing Jiren remain completely unscathed, her expression turned grim.

"If this is your limit, then you cannot defeat me."

Jiren said calmly.

"Monster!!!"

"Kaio-Ken x500 didn't work? Then I'll go x1000!"

"AAAAHHHHHHHH——!!!"

"HAAAAAAHHHH——!!!"

A flicker of resolve flashed in Chi-Chi's eyes as she clenched her fists and roared to the heavens. Then, to everyone's shock, she kept pushing her power higher and higher.

Kaio-Ken x500 wasn't enough? Then I'll go x1000!!

Breaking past her limits? Fine—I'll break them right here and now!
