Chapter 498: Lin Chen vs Jiren and Goku
Yeah!
After hearing Beerus’s words, everyone present felt puzzled.
Why does Goku have Ultra Instinct?
Clearly, this is a realm that not even Lin Chen has been able to learn, so why does Goku, who isn’t even in the top two of Universe 7, be able to learn it?
What’s the reasoning behind this?
“Could it be at that ti?”
At this mont, Piccolo, who was sitting at the edge, suddenly muttered.
In this Tournant of Power, Piccolo was the earliest to be eliminated from Universe 7, so he was not favored by Beerus at all and was pushed to the edge early on.
But now, upon hearing his words, Beerus’s eyes lit up.
“Piccolo, what did you say? When?”
With a swish, Beerus appeared next to Piccolo and sat down, asking.
Piccolo imdiately beca nervous and awkwardly said, “Beerus-sama, about half a month ago, Goku visited Lookout.”
“I know, he said he went there to train… could it be at that ti? But wait, isn’t Ultra Instinct a realm only Angels can achieve? How did Goku learn it on Earth by himself?”
“Well… I suspect, perhaps Mr. Popo taught him.”
“Popo? Who?” Beerus looked puzzled.
But little did he know, Piccolo’s speculation was correct. Goku had indeed learned Ultra Instinct under Mr. Popo’s guidance.
Let’s rewind ti to half a month ago…
Earth, Lookout.
“Mr. Goku, you are looking for Mr. Popo?” Dende looked surprised as Goku suddenly appeared.
“Yes, Dende, I have sothing I want to discuss with Mr. Popo alone.” Goku smiled.
“Alright then.”
Dende nodded and walked away, leaving Mr. Popo by himself.
Once he was far enough, Goku turned to Mr. Popo and said, “Mr. Popo, I want to ask you, did you teach
Ultra Instinct before?”
Facing Goku’s question, Mr. Popo stood with his hands behind his back, his expression as blank as usual, saying nothing.
Seeing this, Goku had to say, “Mr. Popo, you don’t have to hide it! To be honest with you, not long ago, I wanted to learn Ultra Instinct from soone else, but he told
to comprehend it on my own because he found that I already had the foundation of Ultra Instinct. That person’s na is Angel Whis, do you know him, Mr. Popo?”
Goku was telling the truth.
Knowing that the Tournant of Power, which would include the top fighters from eight universes, was to be held in half a month, just like everyone else, he was eager to beco stronger.
With only half a month left, there weren’t many ways to beco stronger, and the first thod Goku thought of was to learn Ultra Instinct, which Lin Chen and Beerus had demonstrated during their confrontation.
For this reason, he specifically sought advice from Whis.
But after Whis guided Goku a few tis, he stopped and then revealed astonishing news to Goku.
It seed that Goku already had the foundation of Ultra Instinct within his body.
Therefore, Whis suggested that Goku should go find the person who had already taught the basics of Ultra Instinct.
At first, Goku was completely puzzled because he didn’t know he had already learned the basics of Ultra Instinct, and he couldn’t even think of who the person Whis was referring to.
It wasn’t until Whis explained the essence of Ultra Instinct to him that Goku suddenly realized that the person Whis was referring to was Mr. Popo!
Back in the day, when Goku was still young, he once received guidance from Mr. Popo on Lookout.
At that ti, Mr. Popo created a replica of Goku, allowing Goku to practice the essence of instinctual counterattacks through sparring with this replica.
And according to Whis, this essence is actually the basics of Ultra Instinct.
Facing Goku’s questioning, Mr. Popo finally spoke up, “Goku, I’ve been waiting for this day for a long ti. When you were young, your body couldn’t bear the burden of Ultra Instinct, but perhaps now, with your current strength, it might be possible.”
“Really?”
Seeing Mr. Popo admit it, Goku was overjoyed, “Mr. Popo, I’m counting on you! I must master Ultra Instinct no matter what!”
“Then you must be prepared, although you have the foundation, mastering Ultra Instinct is not sothing that even gods can guarantee.”
“Yes!”
And so, Goku and Mr. Popo trained together for half a month, until now…
As Goku slowly arrived by Jiren’s side, the latter’s eyes, shining with silver light, showed astonishnt.
“Goku, you also know Ultra Instinct?”
“Jiren, let’s fight together! Even with Ultra Instinct, we might not be able to defeat Brother Lin Chen. We must cooperate.”
“Cooperate…” A cold light flashed in Jiren’s eyes, “I, Jiren, don’t need cooperation, I don’t need companions, you just watch from the sidel!”
Saying that, Jiren turned around and charged towards Lin Chen.
“Lin Chen, your opponent is !”
“Ultra Instinct… bring it on.”
Lin Chen’s eyes also flashed with raging fighting spirit as he raised his hands, shooting hundreds of energy bullets towards Jiren like a machine gun. But what was terrifying was that when the energy bullets approached, Jiren seed to foresee the future, casually strolling through the barrage, effortlessly dodging all of them before arriving in front of Lin Chen.
Lin Chen imdiately threw a punch, but it was easily dodged by Jiren.
At the sa ti, a silver-white fist slamd into Lin Chen’s stomach, causing him to bend over like a cooked shrimp.
But at that mont, Lin Chen suddenly smirked, whispering in Jiren’s ear, “It’s still not enough!”
“Huh?” Jiren was stunned.
Then, a red light burst out from Lin Chen’s body.
“Super Kaio-ken!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of explosions suddenly filled the air as Lin Chen’s fists shot towards Jiren at unimaginable speeds.
At first, Jiren, whose body was emitting a silver glow, could easily dodge, but under the effect of Kaio-ken, Lin Chen’s speed kept increasing.
Eventually, when the speed surpassed the limit, even Ultra Instinct couldn’t evade.
The two finally made contact.
But at that mont, another pair of hands intervened between them.
“Goku?” Jiren exclaid in shock.
“Jiren, let’s cooperate!”
With those words, Goku joined the battle without waiting for Jiren’s consent.
Two attacks fell on Lin Chen simultaneously, forcing him to temporarily halt his attack. After dodging, he gathered himself once again.
Fighting against two opponents who had mastered Ultra Instinct was definitely a headache-inducing situation.
In the past, Lin Chen had used Ultra Instinct to beat Beerus to a pulp, feeling imnsely satisfied at the ti, but now he finally understood Beerus’ pain.
No matter how he attacked, the two guys on the other side seed to have activated a cheat code, effortlessly dodging everything.
The most annoying part was their indifferent expressions, which, although Lin Chen knew was the effect of Ultra Instinct, still made him boil with anger.
