"Then let's begin!" Champa exclaimed with excitement.
It was finally someone who could work for me for 2000 years.
Did I not know Vegeta's strength?
When I first met him, his strength was pathetically weak.
Even after you resurrected him and guided him, how much could he improve with his talent?
Even a Supreme Kai had trained him.
I think Vegeta is not as strong as Zamasu.
No!
Rumsshi actually dared to play such a big game with me. Maybe this Vegeta has some trump card!
It must be Destruction!
Yes, it must be Destruction.
Perhaps this kid has learned a tiny bit of Destruction.
But it doesn't matter!
Hit can use Timeskip, he can definitely dodge it!
The next moment, Vegeta stood on the stage with his hands in his pockets.
Hit also had his hands in his pockets, looking at Vegeta with disdain.
The two made eye contact.
"You can start," Champa commanded. "The rules are the same as before, no killing. If your body falls out of bounds, you lose."
Vegeta nodded gently.
Hit, on the other hand, wore an expression of endless confidence.
This little guy actually wants to challenge me?
And he's even imitating my stance of having hands in his pockets.
I keep my hands in my pockets to better execute Timeskip.
What are you keeping your hands in your pockets for?
To show off?
"Attack me with your full strength, Hit," Vegeta said with a gentle smile.
"Then I shall grant your wish!" Hit let out a cold snort and turned into a streak of light, quickly appearing directly in front of Vegeta.
"Whoosh!"
Hit threw a punch at Vegeta, as fast as lightning.
"Bang!"
Vegeta didn't make any unnecessary movements, he simply kicked out, striking Hit in the abdomen.
"Owwww..."
Hit let out a pained cry, immediately falling to his knees on the stage, clutching his stomach, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
This kid really has a heavy foot.
Why does kicking someone hurt so much?
"What?" Champa's eyes widened in disbelief.
What a joke?
Vegeta... he actually kneed Hit to the ground with one kick?
Am I seeing things?
Hit gritted his teeth and got up from the ground.
What just happened?
His speed and power had suddenly increased tremendously.
And his speed was incredible.
So fast that I didn't even have a chance to use Timeskip.
"I was careless just now. You are much stronger than I imagined," Hit said through gritted teeth. "However, I'm going to get serious now."
"Then try getting serious. Take another kick from me!" Vegeta said, quickly launching a kick towards Hit.
"Timeskip!"
At this critical moment, Hit quickly activated Timeskip.
Time suddenly froze.
Hit seized the opportunity and threw a punch at Vegeta's face.
"Swish!"
Vegeta lightly tilted his head, skillfully dodging Hit's punch.
"Bang!"
At the same time, Vegeta's foot landed squarely on Hit's chest.
"Owwww..."
Hit let out another pained cry, spitting up blood and collapsing onto the ground.
Champa was stunned, he rubbed his eyes vigorously, looking utterly bewildered.
What is happening?
Hit fell down again?
This is impossible.
Bodamo, Magetta, and Frost were equally shocked.
This little guy is really something, to have knocked Hit down twice in a row.
Vados also cast a deep glance at Vegeta.
Champa might not have noticed, but Vados wasn't oblivious.
Vados could sense that Vegeta was instantly boosting his power to its absolute limit.
And, the way he dodged Hit just now, it seemed like he had awakened Ultra Instinct.
"Oh my, oh my... was that Ultra Instinct just now?" Vados marveled.
"Hee hee, you found out," Vados giggled.
Champa's ears immediately perked up, and he mechanically turned his head to look at Vados.
"You... what did you say? Ultra Instinct? How is that possible?" Champa exclaimed.
"It is indeed Ultra Instinct!" Vados recalled Vegeta's movements just now and stated with great certainty.
Champa's mouth hung open for a long time.
"This... this is impossible, absolutely impossible!" Champa shouted. "With that kid's state of mind, how could he possibly awaken Ultra Instinct?"
"There's nothing to be surprised about. It's because I'm a genius," Vegeta grinned.
"You..." Champa suddenly realized something and immediately turned to look at Rumsshi, shouting furiously, "Rumsshi, you tricked me!"
"When did I trick you?" Rumsshi acted as if nothing was wrong.
"You're still saying that! You deliberately let Vegeta act weak! All so I'd work for you, right?" Champa yelled.
"You're the one who proposed the bet! I never said I wanted to play with you!" Rumsshi said with a smile. "Think carefully, didn't you suggest it yourself?"
Champa: "..."
Champa rubbed his head and thought carefully.
It seemed I did suggest it.
This is really awkward...
No!
It's true that I suggested it, but I feel like you manipulated me into suggesting it.
"Lord Champa, we haven't decided the winner yet! Why do you assume I'll lose to him!" Hit stood up from the ground, gritting his teeth, and tore off his cloak, tossing it casually behind him.
Hit no longer kept his hands in his pockets.
Champa took a deep breath.
Yes!
The match wasn't over yet.
However, Champa quickly swallowed and felt a sense of unease.
If Vegeta had truly awakened Ultra Instinct, Hit would be no match for him.
Hit's Timeskip wouldn't be able to hit Vegeta.
Now, all he could do was pray for a miracle.
"Boom!"
A layer of blue flames suddenly erupted from Hit, pushing his power to the absolute limit.
"Your name is Vegeta, right?" Hit said with a smile. "You're the first opponent I've taken seriously!"
"Unfortunately, you're not the first opponent I've taken seriously!" Vegeta shook his head.
"Oh? Then who was the first opponent you took seriously?" Hit asked with interest, smiling.
"I think it was a guy named Cui," Vegeta mused.
Hit looked confused.
Who is Cui?
I've never heard of him.
Champa: "..."
Vados: "..."
Champa and Vados exchanged glances.
Is Cui that frog-like fellow?
Indeed, that battle was a bit difficult for Vegeta at first.
But later, Vegeta transformed into a Great Ape and tore Cui apart.
However, considering Cui's strength, Champa wanted to curse.
You consider someone like that your first serious opponent?
You're comparing him to Hit?
Fortunately, Hit didn't know Cui. If he knew how weak Cui was, he might feel insulted.
"Who is Cui? Do you know him?" Rumsshi asked Vados.
"No... I haven't heard of him," Vados shook her head. "But judging by Lord Champa's expression, he seems to have met Cui."
