Chapter 236: The Fateful Battle of the Gods: The Ultimate Showdown between Goku and Jiren
In the fantastic and dreamlike Dragon Ball universe, opportunities and challenges follow each other like interwoven threads, weaving together a magnificent and boundless epic of the universe. Goku in the Super Saiyan Pink form is surrounded by a mysterious and majestic pink aura, which seems to be the embodiment of the mysterious power from the deepest dimension of the universe. It is the direct manifestation of his fusion of the blood of the Super One-Star Dragon, the blood and soul of Zamasu, and the power of the Dragon God of Dragon Ball. Every leap of the aura seems to whisper the ancient secret language of the beginning of the universe, telling a mysterious story beyond time and space.
Jiren, the super warrior who stands at the pinnacle of the power of the 11th universe, has already surpassed the realm of the God of Destruction. He stands proudly in front of Goku like a towering iceberg, exuding a cold and inviolable aura. Even though Goku has now entered the realm of divine power, he is still trapped in the dilemma of being firmly suppressed by Jiren in this thrilling battle with him.
Goku, as a Saiyan, has the passion for fighting in his blood. The stronger the opponent, the stronger the excitement and fighting spirit hidden in his blood. At this moment, he was like a pink meteor shooting out, his eyes flashing with excitement, and he took the lead in attacking. He rushed towards Jiren at an extreme speed, and his right fist carried a terrifying force that was enough to tear apart the space, just like a supernova ready to go, blasting towards Jiren's face. Where the fist wind passed, the air was instantly ignited by the high temperature, making a harsh "sizzling" sound, and twisted into strange and bizarre shapes, as if the real space began to become distorted and unstable under this punch, and the order of time and space also trembled slightly under the impact of this force.
Jiren, however, looked calm and composed, as if everything was under control. He calmly turned slightly to the side, and with a seemingly light but infinitely subtle movement, he easily avoided the extremely sharp attack. Then, like a black lightning, he raised his leg and kicked Goku's abdomen swiftly. The power contained in this kick seemed to be able to turn a planet into dust in an instant. The space made an overwhelmed "buzzing" sound under the pressure of this force, as if it was about to collapse under the terrifying force.
Goku was acutely aware of the deadly danger, and he quickly pulled in his stomach while crossing his hands in front of him like lightning. Jiren's foot hit Goku's arm hard, making a dull and loud sound, just like an ancient bell being struck suddenly. The powerful impact force knocked Goku back like a surging tsunami. Goku's body plowed a deep gully thousands of meters long on the ground, and the rocks along the way exploded and dust flew, as if a small geological disaster had erupted in this area.
Goku steadied himself, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes became more determined and fiery, like burning stars, and his fighting instinct as a Saiyan was completely aroused, and he became more and more courageous. "Humph, Jiren, you are indeed stronger than I imagined, but this makes the battle more interesting!" Goku roared, and rushed towards Jiren like a tiger again. As a samurai, he had a pure love and persistence for fighting. Facing a powerful opponent, his fighting spirit would only become more high.
This time, he quickly formed seals with both hands in front of his chest at a ghostly speed, and the seven dragon balls on his chest instantly shone brightly, releasing a tremendous amount of energy that poured into his body like a raging torrent. At this moment, Wukong's momentum suddenly climbed to a new height, and he concentrated all his strength, and then released a strengthened Kamehameha.
A thick and dazzling pink beam of light blasted out from Goku's hands like a volcanic eruption, rushing towards Jiren with overwhelming force. Wherever the beam of light passed, shocking cracks appeared in the space like fragile glass, as if the whole world was about to fall apart under this force, and the foundation of the universe was trembling slightly under the impact of this terrifying force.
Seeing this, Jiren danced his hands like a phantom, and quickly condensed an energy shield emitting golden light in front of him. The light column of Kamehameha hit the shield heavily, and a dazzling light burst out in an instant. The light was so strong that people could not look directly at it. The entire battlefield was instantly swallowed by this light. In the light, the two powerful energies madly collided and raged against each other, as if they wanted to completely annihilate each other. The energy fluctuations that burst out were like small nuclear bombs exploding continuously.
Jiren gritted his teeth, veins popping out on his forehead like strings about to break, he was trying his best to maintain the shield. He knew that the power of Goku's attack was enough to pose a huge threat to him, so he didn't dare to slack off. However, Goku's attack did not stop there.
Behind him, the shadow of the Dragon God of the Dragon Ball slowly emerged. The shadow of the Dragon God exuded an ancient and mysterious aura, majestic and solemn, and its huge body seemed to be able to span the universe. The Dragon God opened his huge dragon mouth and let out a roar that shook the earth. This roar seemed to have crossed the boundaries of time and space. A mysterious and powerful force from the depths of the universe was injected into the Kamehameha along with the roar, making the power of the pink light column geometrically enhanced.
"Break it!" Goku's eyes widened, and his roar was full of unyielding determination. Under the fierce impact of this double force, Jiren's energy shield finally couldn't bear the heavy burden, and dense cracks appeared. Then, accompanied by a deafening "boom", the shield was completely shattered, turning into countless energy fragments and dissipating into nothingness.
The Kamehameha beam continued to rush forward towards Jiren. Jiren's face instantly became as solemn as iron. He took a deep breath, and the aura around him suddenly surged like boiling magma. He clenched his hands into fists, and all his strength gathered at one point like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, and then he suddenly pushed forward with all his strength. A golden energy wave roared like an awakened ancient beast and collided head-on with the Kamehameha beam. The two were deadlocked, and a huge and wildly rotating energy vortex formed in the air.
The energy vortex raged wildly, ruthlessly sucking everything around it in. The hard rocks and towering peaks on the ground were instantly crushed into dust by this terrifying force, and were sucked into the vortex like sand and dust. In the sky, the originally snow-white clouds were also dyed into strange and colorful colors by this extremely powerful energy, as if the order of the entire universe was crumbling under the impact of this force, and time and space seemed to begin to distort and deform under the influence of this force.
Goku and Jiren both tried their best to overwhelm each other in this contest of strength. The same determined flame burned in their eyes. This battle has long surpassed the simple duel of strength and is also an ultimate contest of faith and will.
Although Goku launched wave after wave of fierce storm attacks with the help of his Super Saiyan Rose form and the various powerful powers he had fused, Jiren's terrifying strength that surpassed that of the God of Destruction was too strong. He always deftly resolved Goku's attacks at the critical moment and quickly gave a fierce counterattack. In this fierce and almost tragic battle, Goku gradually felt powerless. His body began to show signs of fatigue because of the huge force beyond his limit. Every breath was accompanied by a tingling pain, as if all the cells in his body were protesting in pain.
However, the fighting spirit in his heart is like a fire that is burning more and more. As a Saiyan, his blood is boiling because of the battle. Facing such a powerful Jiren, the excitement fills his body and mind. He knows that he must not give up. In order to protect the glory of the seventh universe and for the partners who trust him and place their hopes on him, he must persevere, even if the road ahead is full of thorns, and he must find a glimmer of hope to defeat Jiren.
At this moment, Vegeta and other warriors of Universe 7 were anxious, like ants on a hot pot. Vegeta frowned, his eyes revealed a trace of anxiety, but more of a desire and persistence for battle. He was unwilling to watch Goku bear it all alone. Through telepathy, he conveyed a message to Goku: "Goku, do you need help?" Other warriors of Universe 7 also expressed their eagerness to support through telepathy. Their eyes were full of worry and determination, ready to rush forward and fight side by side with Goku at any time.
Wukong panted slightly, with mixed feelings in his heart, and he replied: "He is too strong, and still needs help." However, their intentions were soon keenly noticed by other warriors of the Pride Squadron of Universe 11 and many warriors from other universes. These warriors acted quickly like a well-trained iron army, like an indestructible barrier, firmly blocking the warriors of Universe from going to support Wukong.
"Don't even think about getting through!" A warrior from the Pride Team roared, emitting powerful and violent energy, like a beast ready to attack. Warriors from other universes also responded, each using their own unique and powerful skills to form an airtight encirclement that tightly trapped the warriors from the seventh universe.
Vegeta glared at them angrily, his aura roaring like a volcano about to erupt, "You guys, don't think you can stop us!" As he spoke, he instantly transformed into Super Saiyan Blue, and powerful energy waves spread out from him like ripples, trying to break through the encirclement. But the strength of the warriors from other universes should not be underestimated either. They worked together to stabilize the encirclement, and Vegeta's attack ultimately failed.
At the same time, in the center of the battlefield, Goku looked at his blocked companions, and a warm feeling surged in his heart, but more of a firm belief. He knew that at this moment he could only rely on himself, and he must find a way to break through these difficulties, defeat Jiren, and win the dawn of victory for the seventh universe.
Goku took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the fatigue and pain in his body, and decided to use King-ken again to try to start a new round of confrontation with Jiren. The familiar red light appeared around his body again, and the power of King-ken gradually merged into his body, causing his aura to rise again.
"Come on, Jiren! This time, I won't back down!" Goku roared, and rushed towards Jiren again. Jiren looked at Goku who was rushing towards him again, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by indifference. "You are indeed very tenacious, but all this is in vain." Jiren said, and rushed towards Goku.
The two collided again, and powerful energy exploded again. Goku used the Kaio-ken's enhanced attack, with each punch carrying the power of breaking the wind. Every move and every style showed his fighting skills as a samurai and the fighting instinct of the Saiyan. However, Jiren still coped with it with ease, and his every block and counterattack was extremely accurate. In front of Jiren's powerful strength, Goku gradually became a little powerless. Although he tried his best, he still couldn't turn the situation around.
Another fierce collision, Goku was blown away by Jiren's powerful force. His body was like a falling meteor, hitting the distant mountain heavily, and the rocks suddenly collapsed and dust flew. Goku climbed up from the rubble with difficulty, more blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth, but his eyes were still firm. "I must defeat you, I want to protect our seventh universe!" Goku gritted his teeth and said, even in adversity, as a Saiyan, his fighting blood was still boiling, and his desire for victory became stronger.
However, the cruel reality is in front of him. Even with the King-ken, Goku still cannot defeat Jiren. Jiren is too powerful, and every attack makes Goku feel extremely exhausted. But Goku did not give up. He kept thinking about countermeasures in his mind, trying to find Jiren's flaws. He firmly believed that as long as he did not give up, there would be a chance...
