Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

Jiren remained calm and composed in the face of Vegeta's renewed attack.

That disdainful gaze, as if looking at an insignificant insect, showed no regard for Vegeta's attack.

Vegeta naturally noticed the contempt in Jiren's eyes, which made him unleash even more divine power, determined to make Jiren pay a heavy price.

Just as he arrived in front of Jiren, time and space seemed to freeze together.

A deep red light flashed in Jiren's enormous eyes, and in an instant, a series of devastating attacks slammed into Vegeta.

"BOOM!!!" With a terrifying roar that exploded in the space, Vegeta's divine power dissipated, and he was sent flying in an instant, crushing the protruding Super Kashin Steel Pillar to pieces.

"Damn it... What... is going on..." Vegeta trembled uncontrollably, the intense pain making him feel as if his body was about to shatter.

His mind kept replaying what had happened in that brief moment when they were close together.

"That guy... launched countless attacks in an instant, so fast that I couldn't even react." Vegeta gritted his teeth, his anger surging, his eyes filled with resentment and fury.

But more often than not, there is nothing that can be done.

……

Meanwhile, everyone in Universe 7 also noticed Vegeta's miserable state.

"Vegeta... what exactly happened just now?!" Goku was horrified. He never expected that Vegeta, whose strength was on par with his own and who was even slightly stronger than him in the same form, would be suppressed into this state.

Jiren is terrifyingly strong!

"I couldn't even see what that guy did," Number 18 muttered from outside the battlefield.

"In that instant, he launched countless attacks, directly shattering Vegeta's protective energy," Android 17 calmly analyzed.

"Vegeta in his Super Saiyan Blue Ultimate form couldn't even put up a fight against that guy? Just how terrifying is he?!" Piccolo exclaimed in horror.

He knew very well that if a strong person like Vegeta could be suppressed so thoroughly, then even if Goku went up, the result would probably be the same.

Unless Goku uses the Kaioken technique, the power gap between the two cannot be narrowed at all.

"It's alright, Dad is still here. Even if Dad loses, there's still Uncle Tarot," Gohan said heavily.

Lacking sufficient strength, they can only rely on...

……

The spectator stands.

Beerus, the God of Destruction, and Whis, the Angel, looked grim after seeing how thoroughly Vegeta had been suppressed by Jiren.

In other universes, there are indeed beings powerful enough to rival the Gods of Destruction.

Fortunately, Universe 7 had a backup plan this time, with a super strong individual like Talot from another time-space world as a safety net.

"That guy can do this just by using his aura. Apart from that kid, I'm afraid no one can stand up to him," Beerus exclaimed.

To gain the approval of Beerus, the strongest God of Destruction, one can only imagine just how powerful Jiren is.

"He is completely different from any opponent I have ever faced before. He gives off an aura of...unbelievable strength..." The East Supreme Kai felt a chill run down his spine. Jiren's power was something he had never seen before.

Such absolute and extreme combat power even gave him a feeling of invincibility.

"If we have to compare, then it can only be the God of Destruction, or perhaps he has already taken the lead." Angel Weiss said, giving a meaningful glance to the viewing area of ​​Universe 11.

Vegeta's level of skill is undoubtedly at the pinnacle of a candidate for God of Destruction. Only a true God of Destruction could suppress him.

Jiren's fighting prowess, without exaggeration, has surpassed that of Vermouth, the God of Destruction of Universe 11.

However, Vegeta has not yet been truly defeated, so it is too early to conclude the outcome of the battle.

As Vegeta's mentor, Whis knew better than anyone what state Vegeta was in at that moment.

Super Saiyan Blue is not Vegeta's limit; right now, Vegeta needs a catalyst to achieve his final breakthrough.

……

This is the viewing area of ​​Universe 11.

"As expected of Jiren, he's still as powerful as ever. I thought this Saiyan named Vegeta would be a bit tricky to deal with, but it seems we were just overthinking it. This kind of guy is nothing to Jiren." The God of Destruction, Vegeta, said with extreme arrogance.

"That being said, Jiren seems quite interested in that Saiyan named Tarot, which has completely disrupted our previously planned scheme," Supreme Kai Kai seconded.

"It's been a long time since we've seen Jiren fight seriously. This is a good opportunity to let those guys from other universes see just how big the gap is between them and our Eleventh Universe." Angel Macarita's words revealed a hint of conspiracy.

This battle was of extraordinary significance to all the participants from all the universes present.

If we can demonstrate absolute power that can defeat everything, the contestants from other universes will be defeated without a fight, and winning the Tournament of Power will be a piece of cake.

……

On the arena of the Boundless Realm.

The powerful Jiren stood on the arena, and the invisible aura he exuded made no one dare to approach him easily.

Its incredible strength left countless onlookers breathless.

After mercilessly suppressing Vegeta, Jiren glanced casually at Vegeta's location and muttered, "Perhaps I should praise you for making me use such strong power. It's perfect as a warm-up. If you know what's good for you, step back."

After saying that, Jiren turned around domineeringly and confronted Talot once again.

However, when his words reached Vegeta's ears, they completely ignited the anger within him.

As a Saiyan prince, his dignity was trampled to nothing.

Despite the excruciating pain, Vegeta struggled to his feet again. His face was grim, and the extinguished divine power erupted once more.

Its terrifying power caused turmoil in all directions. The entire arena of the Power Tournament, no!! The entire Realm of Nothingness, trembled under the impact of this divine power.

"Hmm?" Jiren raised an eyebrow after noticing the intensity of Vegeta's divine power, then arrogantly turned around again to confront Vegeta.

At this moment, Vegeta has completely entered a state of explosive divine power. Judging from his posture, he is going to concentrate all the divine power into one point and go all in.

"You expressionless bastard!! You've humiliated me time and time again!! If you're so capable, take this attack head-on!!" Vegeta spread his arms wide, and divine power continuously gathered in his palms.

This immense power caused a flicker of surprise to cross Jiren's eyes.

To be honest, the strength of this move was something I had never seen before.

I never expected that this Saiyan named Vegeta could unleash such powerful energy.

"Come on!" Jiren maintained his arrogant and disdainful demeanor.

No matter how strong you are, I am definitely above you!

No matter how powerful Vegeta's energy is, Jiren is confident he can suppress it, making them truly understand the absolute difference in strength.

Seeing that his plot had succeeded, Vegeta revealed a cunning smile; this was exactly what he wanted.

Since his ultimate move was deflected by Masked Black Goku in the future timeline, he has improved his technique, making its destructive and penetrating power far greater than when he usually uses it.

He refused to believe that Jiren could be more thorough than that masked black Goku!

"Take this!!!" Vegeta quickly brought his hands together, and a devastating golden lightning energy cannon coalesced in his hands, ready to unleash a fatal blow.

"Super Gamma Burst Flash!!" Vegeta roared hysterically.

A devastating golden beam of destruction shot out from his hand, carrying the power to destroy the world, and hurtled straight toward Jiren.

"What?!" The destructive energy beam that came rushing towards him caused a look of horror to flash across Jiren's usually calm face.

Without thinking twice, Jiren immediately crossed his arms in a defensive stance to block the oncoming golden light of destruction.

A deafening roar echoed through the air.

The entire arena trembled as a golden light of destruction, powerful enough to overturn everything, burst forth from the arena and finally vanished into the chaos of the Boundless Realm.

Smoke filled the air, and dust flew everywhere.

All the fighters on the stage were horrified, including the God of Destruction and the angels in the spectator area, who were all quite shocked by the terrifying destructive power displayed by Vegeta's fatal blow.

"Vegeta...did he succeed?!" Goku was overjoyed, shocked by the terrifying destructive power unleashed by Vegeta's fatal blow.

If he were to face this attack, being hit head-on would result in either serious injury or complete annihilation.

In short, one's own strength is insufficient to withstand it.

So, what happened to Jiren when he was hit head-on by this attack?

This is not just a concern for Sun Wukong, but for everyone.

As the smoke cleared, Jiren's figure became faintly visible.

The super gamma burst of energy that just now did affect Jiren, knocking him to the ground.

"Hmph hmph hmph... Hahahaha~~!!" Vegeta let out a hysterical laugh, feeling so exhilarated and excited.

He succeeded! His Super Gamma Burst Flash successfully overcame a much stronger opponent, defeating Jiren head-on!!

"Well done!! Vegeta!!" Beerus, the God of Destruction, felt incredibly proud in the spectator area.

Although he wasn't the candidate for God of Destruction personally chosen by him, Vegeta's fighting power already qualified him to become a God of Destruction.

This also represents his top-tier strength in Universe 7, far beyond what contestants from other universes can achieve.

But the angel Weiss remained silent.

To outsiders, it was indeed Vegeta who defeated Jiren, but was it really that simple?

Obviously not.

"Impossible!! This level of attack could never defeat Jiren!!" The God of Destruction, Vermouth, was almost driven mad by what he saw.

That move just now was incredibly destructive; even he had to take it seriously.

But now, Jiren has been knocked to the ground and is even unconscious.

"Jiren... he was actually knocked down... how is this possible?!" Supreme Kai Kai couldn't believe it, and even breathing became difficult.

Because if Jiren falls, it means that the Eleventh Universe has no hope.

"My dear, the show is just beginning, don't rush, don't rush!" Angel Macalita grinned mischievously.

Sure enough, the situation immediately reversed as soon as she finished speaking.

Jiren, who should have been lying on the ground in the crater, suddenly disappeared from the spot.

"Huh?!" Vegeta, who thought he had won, suddenly stopped smiling.

Because Jiren had already instantly rushed in front of him, and looked down at him with a kingly air of disdain.

In Jiren's left palm, an energy ball shimmering with a deep red light was placed on Vegeta's stomach.

Its invisible, terrifying power made every cell in Vegeta's body tremble.

Because of that attack, Vegeta's stamina and divine power were greatly depleted. In addition, Jiren's advance was so fast that he didn't have time to use the remaining divine power in his body to defend himself.

"That move just now was indeed quite destructive, but that's all it was," Jiren said in a low voice.

Immediately afterwards, the crimson energy ball in his hand expanded rapidly, engulfing Vegeta in one go and unleashing a full-scale attack.

Unimaginable pain swept over his entire body, and Vegeta let out a series of piercing screams. This excruciating pain was gradually breaking down his last line of defense.

Boom! The energy blast exploded violently, and scorching flames suddenly shot up from the ground.

At the center of the flames, Vegeta's eyes rolled back, his divine power dissipated, and his Super Saiyan Blue Ultimate transformation was no longer stable.

Vegeta seemed to have lost his sense of self and fell forward helplessly.

His body had reached its limit, and his consciousness had also fallen into a deep sleep due to Jiren's attack.

Vegeta, in his Super Saiyan Blue form... was instantly defeated by the powerful Jiren in one move!

"Fall down! You've already earned enough to be proud of by making me take you seriously." Jiren said coldly, then walked towards Talot's location without looking back.

In his view, the outcome of this battle could no longer be changed.

Vegeta has already lost; there is no miracle to be had.

If it weren't for the fact that killing wasn't allowed in the Tournament of Power, Vegeta would already be dead.

However, as a warm-up opponent, Vegeta's strength did indeed surprise him.
