Dragon Ball: Super and Beyond (OLD VERSION!)

A God-Shocking Warrior Awakens?! Enter Ultra Instinct!

Continuing Last Chapter..........

The arena remained quiet, not sure what to make of what had occurred. The arena floors were coated with a strong, yet calming smoke, one that was emitted by the one who had emerged from his short slumber. The silence was so thick that you could even hear the faint sound of a pebble falling to the ground from a distance. The area where the Spirit Bomb had exploded was darkened due to the lack of light being present at the moment, so dark that even the shadow of the mighty warrior known as Jiren couldn't be present. The gray warrior only stood at the edge of the crater, peering intently at the warrior he seemingly defeated. He stood hunched over, his arms loose on both sides and his head low. It seemed he was trying to process everything that had happened and shortly after remembering, the warrior from universe 7 looked up to see Jiren. His eyes were overshadowed by his hair but the defined, silvery eyes were easy to pick up on.

Beerus sat down on his seat, looking closely as the others were confused but more so relieved. Piccolo held a unreadable expression, "Looks like we were all worried for nothing. But........".

"It doesn't seem like he managed to survive that explosion by sheer luck. Plus, he seems different.....," Zugo said, finishing the Namek's train of thought for him. Kuzuku stood there alongside 21 and 17, now curious as to the strangeness emitting off Goku.

"Somethings most certainly changed. Despite looking as if he is in base form, Goku's emitting this vibe off him. A heat that I had never felt before," Kuzuku noted.

"You're right, his expression seems clear and serene. What could of possibly happened while he was knocked out?" 21 asked.

Kuzuku looked at where Goku was standing, his body somewhat covered by darkness but the glow making him somewhat visible. Toppo along with his remaining allies stepped forward to see Goku's revival at first hand. Toppo gritted his teeth under his mustache and muttered to himself, "Son Goku, just what are you? Why do you keep standing back up?". Goku didn't so much as move, nor did he bother to speak. The people around him seemed to have faded away, only leaving one left. The light began to return to the stage as Goku narrowed his eyes, zoning in on his target that was slowly being revealed by the light. His large figure, his stare, his......dominant Ki were all unraveling themselves before he disappeared suddenly from everyone's sights. The participants were all left in under confusion as to where Goku had went. Even Jiren's allies were stunned, unknowing of what really happened. Though, it didn't take long for them to realize it and by the time they turned to figure out what Goku did........It was beyond what they could ever think. There he was, his leg hovering over Jiren's back as the gray warrior ducked under the kick intended for his face. Goku looked down, staring at Jiren emotionless as he did the same. Goku then flipped backwards, generating a shockwave that stunned Jiren's allies with it's pressure.

(Song Ends)

Jiren quickly went in for a punch at Goku's chest, however, the Saiyan spun around his fist with afterimages following him. By the time he came around, his fist was already in motion to launch at Jiren. The gray warrior quickly countered Goku's punch with one of his own, the force of their two fists collided creating a high frequency sound. The ground beneath them shatter into a small crater before exploding from the delayed shockwave, blowing away Jiren's comrades. Goku leaped backwards, avoid the sudden Ki blast Jiren had planted in his stomach. He landed back where he was previously standing, only to look up and see Jiren come shooting out a cloud of smoke with his fist ready. Goku scrunched his eyes, dashing past him so fast that it look like his body just teleported, the afterimages being the only significant evidence of him move. Jiren turned around after his fist created another hole beneath his feat, revealing that there was a small graze across his cheek. He wiped it away with his thumb casually as he knew Goku had landed a blow while dodging his attack.
