Chapter 454: Prelude to the Tournant of Power

“Greetings, Zeno-sama, Grand Priest-sama!”

Booming voices rang out in unison.

These were the highest-ranking gods in their respective universes, each holding a significant position.

However, in the presence of Zeno, they had to humble themselves, like re mortals.

Grand Priest smiled at everyone. After confirming who had not arrived, he said, “Everyone, please raise your heads. Let’s wait for Universe 8.”

“Yes, let’s stand up first!”

“Stand up!”

Upon hearing the Grand Priest’s words, all the gods were montarily stunned, then lifted their heads.

Then, except for Beerus and others from Universe 7, everyone else was left dumbfounded.

They saw two Zeno appearing in front of them.

“What, what’s going on? How can there be two Zeno?”

“What’s happening?”

Champa guessed it due to inside information and turned to look at Beerus. “Beerus, did soone from your universe do it?”

“Beerus?”

Champa’s words imdiately attracted hostile glances from other Gods of Destruction towards Beerus.

Among the twelve Gods of Destruction, Beerus had a bad reputation as the infamous “bad boy.”

In the past, Beerus had caused quite a bit of trouble, so this ti, when the other Gods of Destruction heard Champa’s words, they imdiately thought that the appearance of the two Zeno was probably Beerus’ doing.

However, when it ca to Zeno, they dared not speak their minds.

At this mont, the Grand Priest’s gaze fell on Universe 11 side.

“Ah, Mr. Belmod.”

“Yes!” God of Destruction from Universe 11 imdiately responded.

He was a God of Destruction whose appearance resembled a clown.

“Who is the person behind you?”

“Grand Priest-sama, he is called Toppo. He is Universe 11’s Trainee God of Destruction. Actually, I’ve been considering retiring soon, and he, as the next candidate for God of Destruction, is undergoing training. I brought him along to broaden his horizons.”

“I am Toppo, pleased to et you.” The tall Toppo imdiately said.

“I see.” Grand Priest nodded. “Then, please do your best!”

“Th-thank you very much.”

Next, Grand Priest looked towards Beerus’ direction. “So, Mr. Beerus, who is with you this ti?”

This ti, without waiting for Beerus to answer, this world’s Zeno excitedly shouted, “I know, I know! His na is Broly!”

“Yes, Zeno-sama, this is Broly, Universe 7’s next God of Destruction.” Beerus imdiately nodded.

“Oh? Mr. Beerus, are you also considering stepping down?” Grand Priest asked.

“Not for the mont.” Beerus imdiately shook his head. “Actually, it’s Whis who suggested preparing for the future, so I let Broly undergo God of Destruction training in advance.”

“The other , you know that Broly?” Future Zeno asked curiously.

“Yeah, Broly is amazing. In the last Tournant between Universe 7 and Universe 6, he single-handedly took on five opponents!” This world’s Zeno replied.

“Tournant?”

Zeno’s words fell in the ears of others, imdiately causing them to furrow their brows.

What does that an? A tournant between Universe 7 and Universe 6?

So Gods of Destruction began to increasingly suspect the purpose of their gathering, likely having sothing to do with Beerus and the others.

However, at this mont, the arrival of Universe 8 interrupted their thoughts.

Seeing that everyone was present, Grand Priest stood in front of the two Zeno and announced the purpose of their gathering.

“Everyone, now I will announce the ssage from Zeno-sama…”

“Although this is sudden, I must tell everyone that Zeno-sama intends to hold a Multiverse competition. Let’s call this competition Tournant of Power for the ti being. This event will involve contestants from each universe competing in strength and martial arts.”

Grand Priest’s resounding voice echoed in everyone’s ears, leaving them all bewildered.

“Tournant of Power?”

“A competition of strength and martial arts?”

What is that?

Amidst the confusion, Anato, the Supre Kai of Universe 1, asked, “Grand Priest-sama, can you please explain the specific format of this Tournant of Power?”

Grand Priest smiled and said, “Although the specific details have not been determined, it will be a competition similar to a martial arts tournant. By the way, Zeno-sama thinks that there are too many universes in the Multiverse, so during this Tournant of Power, he also plans to screen your universes. Universes that do not qualify will be eliminated.”

“Eliminated?”

“That ans erased. This includes Supre Kai and Gods of Destruction, but Angels are not subject to being erased,” Grand Priest explained.

“What?!”

Grand Priest’s words were like throwing a huge stone into a calm lake, instantly creating thousands of ripples.

All the gods, including Beerus, were shocked. Just a competition, and it involved the destruction of universes!

This is really outrageous!

“Grand Priest-sama, how does Zeno-sama plan to screen our universes?” asked Giin, the God of Destruction of Universe 12.

He was a God of Destruction who looked like a sea monster.

Grand Priest gestured for everyone to quiet down.

“This ti, Zeno-sama’s intention is to reduce the number of universes to five. Therefore, the universes that lose in this competition will be completely erased. Additionally, based on my investigation, Universe 1, 5, 8 and 12 do not need to participate in the competition because their average level ranks them in the top four.”

Upon hearing this, the Supre Kai and God of Destruction from those four universes breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, their hard work had paid off, keeping their universes at a high level.

Hard work really pays off!

But the God of Destruction of other universes were enraged. Only one universe out of eight can remain? What the heck is this? Why should they, God of Destruction, also have to be erased?

At this mont, Grand Priest noticed the two Zeno whispering behind him and asked, “May I inquire what’s the matter?”

This world’s Zeno said, “Grand Priest, don’t forget what we discussed earlier.”

“Ah, I almost forgot…” Grand Priest rembered, “Everyone, since Zeno-sama from another world did not witness the martial arts tournant between Universe 6 and Universe 7, to let him understand what the tournant is about and also for everyone to understand the situation, let’s have an exhibition match here. We’ll choose two universes with the lowest average strength and have a small match between them. This will give Zeno-sama and all of you an idea. How about that?”

Grand Priest’s proposal made Future Zeno vigorously nod, and this world’s Zeno, excited to watch a competition, raised his little hand.

“Alright, let’s do that!”

“Okay, then the universe with the lowest average strength, Universe 9, and the second lowest, Universe 6, will have a match.”
