Void had seen his prey and was ready to attack. It was none other than Hit, the mortal with the ability to control ti—cough, I an, ti skip.
Boom!
Void appeared in front of Hit, and a shockwave echoed, pushing everyone away except for Hit.
Goku, Vegeta, Jiren, the Z Warriors, the Pride Troopers, the gods, angels, and Kais—all of them had been paying attention to him and followed Void's movents the mont he moved.
"Mind sparring with ? I'm interested in your ability," Void said, his hands in his pockets. He was dressed casually, wearing a shirt and trousers.
"How did you know?" Hit asked. After all, he hadn't even used his ability yet.
"Oh, co on. Most people know about Hit in your universe, and I've been there," Void replied, chuckling as Hit squinted his eyes.
"All right, then. I'm ready whenever you are," Hit said.
"Alright, hit , Hit," Void smiled, unfazed.
Boom!
Hit punched to his right, and it appeared directly in front of Void, but as soon as it got within a ter of him, it dissipated.
Hit was shocked but didn't give up, striking multiple blows. Yet, each one disappeared when it ca within a ter of Void.
"Try harder," Void said with a smile.
Hit took a fighting stance and used his ability.
Ti ca to a stop as he walked calmly to Void's front, stopping when he was one ter away.
"What's this?" Hit muttered, looking at Void's paused, smiling face. He could sense a barrier or sothing naturally forming around Void's body.
"Co on, strike ," Hit heard Void's voice, and his eyes shrank in horror.
He looked at Void—Void was still smiling but now moving his body as if nothing was wrong, completely unaffected by the ti skip.
Void raised an eyebrow as an invisible attack struck Hit, sending him flying dozens of ters away.
Goku, Vegeta, Kale, Caulifla, and the others were in shock.
"Kakarot, did you see how he attacked?" Vegeta asked.
Goku shook his head. "I didn't see anything, just Hit suddenly flying out."
"He most likely was attacked," Piccolo comnted from afar, having finished off his small opponent.
"Dad, how do we fight him?" Gohan asked, appearing as well.
"Jiren, do you—" Toppo began, but Jiren interrupted.
"Yes, his famous technique didn't work. It didn't even affect Void," Jiren said, clearing the confusion for everyone.
"Will I be able to see your true strength, Void?" Jiren thought to himself.
"That barrier..." Hit appeared a few ters from Void and spoke.
"As you can see, my aura isn't even released. Besides, ti? You're controlling ti?" Void asked, intrigued.
"I don't control ti. I—" Hit started to explain when a shout interrupted him.
"Shut the f*ck up! How dare you use ti if you don't plan to control it? What strength, what drive—all worthless without power! Rubbish, rubbish!" Void shouted, his voice echoing across the battlefield, silencing everyone.
"All of you co together. Your weak strength disgusts ," Void said indifferently.
The scene was eerily quiet; you could hear a pin drop.
Void was just taunting them. He wanted more pressure. After all, he was a quasi-middle-level Rank 3 being, his strength unfathomable by mortals.
The fighters were shocked and angry.
"All right, let's make it fair. I'll stand in this spot. If I move a single step, then I'll admit you're worthy of making a move. Or do you want to increase the handicap?" Void grinned.
"He… how could he?" Vegeta looked on in shock.
"Vegeta, relax. Gohan, Frieza, Androids 17 and 18, we're going to battle," Goku said with a smile.
Tien, Piccolo, Krillin, and Master Roshi also prepared themselves.
"Aargh!" A fighter from another universe was the first to attack, but as he got within five ters of Void, his body froze.
"So weak. h… In the cosmos, you're less than cannon fodder," Void said, grinning.
The fighter was angry, but his body wouldn't move.
"Co on, attack with !" the fighter shouted as others rushed in.
Boom… Boom!
Shockwaves spread as cracks ford on the ground, yet none of the fighters could get within five ters of Void.
"All right, I take it back. I'll pound you. Too bad I can't kill you," Void said, looking at them disappointedly.
Jiren and the Pride Troopers watched from the side as Goku and the others geared up to fight.
Void scanned the group and picked out a female—it was Kale.
"Legendary Super Saiyan," Void muttered.
He took a step forward, and the stronger fighters felt their hearts sink as a dreadful feeling overwheld them. Then Void's foot touched the ground, and he disappeared.
Boom!
A resounding force pushed all the fighters back, leaving them crashing into the ground, injured to varying degrees.
"So weak."
Void waved his hand, and they fell off the ring.
"More! More! We won't destroy your universe as long as you beat Void," Present Zeno said.
"Yes, yes!" Future Zeno agreed.
Hearing this, the remaining fighters braced themselves.
Void appeared in front of Kale. Caulifla was frightened.
"Kale, watch out!" Caulifla shouted.
"Noisy," Void said, flicking his finger.
"Aargh!"
Caulifla flew hundreds of ters, breaking part of the ring along the way. Her breathing was faint.
"Caulifla!" Kale shouted, wanting to go to her, but Void grabbed her by the neck.
"Tell ," Void paused and grinned at her pitiful expression.
"Why are you so weak?"
Boom!
A large crater ford as Void slamd Kale face-first into the ground.
She coughed up blood.
"You haven't answered. Why are you weak?" Void asked, slamming her down again.
"Cough… I… Caulifla…" Kale struggled to speak.
"Idiot," Void muttered and continued smashing her into the ground.
"Please stop," Kale begged, but Void turned a deaf ear.
"You know what I'll do, huh, Kale? I'll let you guys win so your universe is saved, then I'll go and kill your sister," Void said, laughing, which triggered her.
"Aaaaaaargh!" Kale shouted as Void disappeared, reappearing atop a small hill.
The ring had now changed, transforming into a landscape more like a forest—though devoid of trees, plants, or greenery. Raised hills and small mountains dotted the arena.
Void looked at the most berserk creature in the Dragon Ball world—the legendary Super Saiyan. Kale's green hair glowed as her muscular body towered close to two and a half ters in height. Her eyes were pure white, and her aura multiplied several folds.
"Oh, a stronger one," Void muttered, briefly glancing at Goku, Frieza, Jiren, and Top.
"Ants," Void said indifferently and began walking toward Kale.
"You'll pay for this! You'll die, Void! You'll pa..." Experience exclusive tales on My Virtual Library Empire
"Man, shut up," Void said, smashing her head into the ground, breaking a portion of the ring.
Kale reverted to her normal form.
"Next, let's move back to Hit," Void grinned, scanning the remaining fighters.
His grin was terrifying, and the others instinctively stepped back.
"Now, Hit, show your technique," Void said, stretching out his right hand and flicking his fingers.
Boom!
Hit was sent flying.
"How could he...?" Hit thought, astounded.
Void wasn't finished. He followed Hit, punching just as he was about to connect. But then, Void felt an energy blast hit him.
"Oh," Void mused as an explosion erupted.
Boom!
Goku landed on the ground, staring at the smoke.
A few seconds later, the smoke cleared, revealing Void standing unhard.
"Goku," Void said.
"Sorry, I couldn't just stand by and watch Hit like that without helping him," Goku replied with a smile.
Void grinned, adjusting his posture.
"Attack, then," Void said.
"With pleasure," Goku replied, assuming a fighting stance.
Boom!
Goku disappeared, launching a punch aid at Void's head, but his fist stopped a ter short.
Undeterred, Goku kept attacking, expecting this outco.
"Kahaha!" Goku unleashed his signature technique, but it had no effect.
"Can I tag in?" Vegeta's voice ca from across the battlefield. Void nodded.
Boom!
"Let's go, Super Saiyan," Vegeta said, and Goku nodded in agreent.
They ascended through Super Saiyan forms—Super Saiyan 2, Super Saiyan 3, Super Saiyan God, and finally Super Saiyan Blue—yet they couldn't even breach the one-ter barrier around Void.
"Too strong..." Goku gasped, struggling to catch his breath.
"I have to admit it, your strength is comndable," Vegeta said as Void yawned.
"Those who can fight, co together now, or I'll beat you up like I did with Kale," Void said, sending shivers down their spines.
The remaining fighters—Dyspo, Toppo, and the others—rallied together.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Shockwaves rippled across the arena as their combined attacks landed but failed to penetrate Void's one-ter barrier.
Void stood there with his hands in his pockets, watching them attack with ease.
"Jiren will push to his full strength and evolve. Goku will use Ultra Instinct, Vegeta will achieve the evolution of Blue, and Hit still hasn't shown his full potential. Kale and Caulifla will fuse with the Potara earrings to beco Kefla. I need all the strongest ones," Void thought, a knowing glint in his eyes.
"Haha! This is fun. Let's go!" Void laughed loudly.
"You all stop... I'll handle him," said Jiren, the only fighter who had yet to attack Void. The rest stepped back, drained of energy.
"Jiren, okay, try it," Void said as Jiren took a step forward, instantly appearing in front of him. Jiren punched out, but his fist stopped at the barrier.
"Sigh... it's quite disappoi—"
Boom!
Void's words were cut off as Jiren's fist broke through and connected with Void's face.
