210 I want Broly’s head (1/2)
Beerus observed the 12 warriors as he called out to Whis. ”So, have you decided on who is fit to be a contestant in this tournament?”
Beerus could faintly tell who was the strongest in the group and could therefore guess who Whis had picked.
He asked anyway as Whis had spent 2 whole years with them. He would know their weaknesses and strengths better than he could.
”Of course. Through your guidance we both know, which lineup would be the most beneficial to be chosen.”
Whis said sarcastically, causing Beerus' face to twitch slightly. For Beerus it only had been 6 days since their training had begun.
He knew that he said that he would take a look from time to time, but he had not done it once during the training.
He thought it would be enough for his mentor to teach them. He wasn't a good teacher anyway.
”I have trust in you, Whis. I don't doubt that you would do a prefect job in training this bunch.”
Whis closed his eyes and shook his head slightly.
”Sigh. Thanks Lord Beerus… Anyway, I think I should introduce you to the contestants of the tournament, those who would represent universe 7.”
Whis raised his arm and beckoned for the four to step forwards.
”Here they are. The one with the most amount of raw power is the Frost Demon, Cooler. With his golden transformation he rapidly closes in on the god tier level. His battle experience is subpar, but his strength easily compensates for this flaw.”
Beerus rubbed his chin while listening to Whis introduction and tried to overlay it with the impression he got from 6 days ago and the moment they came out of the staff.
”Second would the Saiyan called Son Goku.
Although his strength is lesser compared to Cooler's, his battle experience and his fighting instincts make him even more dangerous in a fight than Cooler.
Third is the Saiyan called Vegeta.
Like Goku his battle experience could be directly felt in a single exchange. He uses his martial skill and techniques to dominate in a fight.
His strength is about the same as Goku's and in every right a dangerous foe. Last but not least is Zangya of the Hera race.”
Beerus raised his eyebrow as he heard the last name. From all the candidates he wasn't sure who would be placed in the last spot for this tournament.
He could tell that this Zangya was strong, not weaker than the others, but in his mind, she didn't outshine the others either.
In fact, since they all were about the same, wouldn't it make more sense to place this bug called Cell as the last candidate?
He could use the majority of the techniques that the others could without diminishing its effects. He would be a good surprise.
Whis seemed to know his doubts and followed up with the reason why she was chosen instead of the others.
”She has a race innate ability called 'Psycho Threads', which can be used to seal and absorb the powers of her opponents. If one doesn't know of her ability, she would be impossible to beat for most. Even if they knew of this ability, it wouldn't help them much either.”
”I see. Someone who could absorb the opponent's power is surely threatening.” Beerus said while nodding. Alea, Cana and Gohan were a bit down cast as they weren't strong enough, even though they put so much effort into their training.
Despite being downcast, they couldn't deny the gains they got through this training. Even if they weren't as strong as Goku and Vegeta, they weren't far off either.
”As for our last contestant, we will have to wait for him to come out. He already had his breakthrough after having a slight setback in midst training. He is only stabilizing his strength now. He will be out tomorrow to participate.”
Goku's ear twitched as he heard Whis talk about this mysterious last contestant.
He immediately ran up to Whis to ask once again who their last teammate would be, but as before he was being denied with, ”You will know, when the tournament starts.”.
Vegeta squinted slightly. He already guessed that Broly should be the last contestant. He was, after all, the strongest person he knew beside these present.
