Tournament: Goku and Jiren Clash
Following the losses that the other universes suffered, for daring to even challenge Universe 7, Twilight noticed that both Jiren and Toppo were focused on observing the remaining warriors, as if they were debating how to go about winning after seeing her universe dominate everyone else, all while their Destroyer seemed far too chill. Part of her realized why he was acting without a care in the world, as Belmod assumed that Jiren was more than enough and Toppo was enough to back him up, if he needed the aid, though it was possible he was banking on the former's position as the strongest mortal in all the universes to win this tournament. The reality of the situation was that he should be worried, because he was down to two of his warriors, even if they were the strongest, the other universes had lost a fair number of warriors, and her team was the strongest here since all ten of them were still present on the stage. Such a thing made her realize that there was a chance that they might be ganged up on, the other five universes joining forces to try and take them down, which would be a very interesting way for this entire thing to end that much faster, but she shelved the thought as she observed the remaining warriors from the other universes.
Kakunsa, for example, was rushing around with her friends, the trio hunting down warriors to eliminate and found that it wasn't as easy for them to do what they had planned, though her attention was pulled back to the stands as she noticed an interesting fact, that being that Belmod had closed his eyes.
"What are you planning, clown?" Twilight commented, speaking to herself as she considered the possibilities, since there was no telling what sort of powers the other Gods of Destruction had, before noticing something else that interested her, Jiren also had his eyes closed, causing her to realize what she was seeing right now, "Oh, telepathy. Interesting..."
In the next moment, however, the entirety of the Null Realm seemed to be vibrating, or at least the air seemed to be doing that right now, and it was due to Jiren starting to walk towards the one he had designated as his foe, something that also caused every warrior to stop in their tracks. No one fought as he made his move, traversing part of the stage as he walked towards his target, such was the overwhelming power he commanded and the aura he produced, in fact many warriors seemed to move to safe areas so they could observe whatever was going to happen next. Her universe, however, stayed in their positions, silently observing Jiren as he made his move, before discovering that, out of everyone that was still on the stage, he had chosen Goku as his foe, something Twilight knew would excite the Saiyan to no end since he had hoped for such a thing after Toppo revealed that Jiren existed to him. While observing both of them Twilight jumped up to one of the highest points that rested around the stage and stared at the pair, all while discovering that Caulifla and Kale seemed to have the same idea, but they sat to her right while saying nothing, showing her that everyone was interested in Jiren's power and the fight that was about to unfold.
As Goku shifted his stance, however, Jiren seemed to focus his eyes and a torrent of wind burst out of the area that he was standing in, though Twilight had to chuckle as many other warriors, from the other universes, paled as they realized that it was his immense energy, which only excited Goku even more than before.
"Toppo was right... your power is amazing." Goku said, where he couldn't help but smile as he said that, because Jiren was definitely a worthy foe and he was looking forward to the fight that was about to unfold, even though he noted that his soon to be foe didn't bother to raise his arms and take his own battle stance, like he thought that this fight would be over in a few moments.
Jiren just stood there as he waited for Goku to make the first move, in fact he almost seemed like the type to react to the moves of others, though before either of them could do anything a blue goo warrior from Universe 3 rushed in and tried to deal with him, only for Jiren to focus his eyes once more and sent the unfortunate warrior off the stage, much to the surprise of his Kaioshin.
"He's got good senses, I'll give him that." Twilight remarked, where she started to make her notes on the warrior's moves and abilities, because out of everyone here he stood the best chance of disrupting her team, but right now he seemed totally focused on Goku and that meant she could get all sorts of information on him before having to fight him, "Now, how will this battle go down?"
The pair stared at each other for a few more moments before Goku figured out that Jiren wanted him to make the first move of their fight, to which he summoned a bit of his energy and fired a Kamehameha at his foe, only to discover that he was untouched as his eye power seemed to form a barrier in front of him that diverted the beam into strands that didn't come close to touching him. Twilight realized the truth of the matter, Jiren's enormous power had formed a wall in front of him, causing the beam to break up like that it was nothing, something that seemed to interest some of the other gods as their battle finally started, meaning this was something everyone was interested in. After that Goku went Super Saiyan as he charged at Jiren, finding that his foe didn't even flinch as he received a punch to the face, in fact he didn't move at all, a fact that interested Twilight greatly, especially when Goku moved into a flurry of blows on his foe's chest, which also did nothing to the imposing warrior. Super Saiyan 2 fared about the same, Jiren just stood there and tanked the attacks like it was nothing before his might, and Twilight was intrigued by the fact that not even Super Saiyan 3 did anything to Jiren, as it really made her wonder how much power the warrior from Universe 11 really had.
Goku, sensing that those forms weren't doing anything for him right now, backed off for just a moment before powering down to his base form and transformed into his next transformation, causing Jiren to raise an eyebrow as he watched the warrior take on his Super Saiyan 4 form.
"What is that?!" Caulifla asked, as while she could assume that the long haired version, that made Goku look more like a brute, was Super Saiyan 3, which happened to be what she was working towards after figuring out how to use the second form at long last, this more red furred ape form was an unknown to her.
"Super Saiyan 4, a form that's even stronger than it's predecessor." Twilight replied, where she understood why Caulifla had chosen to sit near her during this fight, she was the one who knew everything about the forms that her Saiyans used in battle, but she knew that things were about to get serious, because with this form Goku was at the peak of what he was capable of without his various god forms.
Her thoughts were proven right as Goku rushed back into battle and swung at Jiren, who moved a finger into the path of his fist and blocked it, though the ground itself shuddered and cracked under the pressure of their energies coming into contact with each other. This was the benefit of constantly training with her and understanding his transformations, as the Saiyan now possessed a power that was beyond what most of the other warriors from the other universes had, and when faced with the might of Jiren it proved to be a worthy form to use against him. Sure, it didn't seem to be doing too much in the grand scheme of things, but forcing his foe to move his right hand and use a finger to block attacks was far better than being totally ignored, like he had experienced with his first three forms, and she knew that Goku was only getting started with this fight. Everyone watched as Goku backed off for a moment, returned to his base form, and transformed into his Super Saiyan God form, where this time his punches were much faster and Jiren had to respond with more speed to catch up with him, while the collision of their energies shattered the floor around them, leaving a crater where Jiren had chosen to stand for this part of the fight.
Eventually the truth dawned on Goku as he realized that Jiren was waiting for him to get serious, to use the form that he and everyone else knew about, to which he backed off for a moment and powered up again, taking on his Super Saiyan Blue form at long last while everyone stared at him in awe.
This time around the battle actually moved around the area as Goku punched Jiren, who raised his arms to block it and was pushed back, as he was sent into one of the large rock pillars before the Saiyan pushed him through it, smashing it and a few behind it to pieces as they started to move around the arena. Unfortunately Jiren regained the upper hand as he resisted Goku's attacks and knocked him around, showing that he was capable of dominating his foe while his attacks packed enough power to flatten whatever was around them. In fact he picked up Goku by one of his legs and swung him like a club, breaking some of the rock pillars like they were made of candy or some really weak material, meaning his own power had to be even stronger than the hardest material in all of Universe 7, which only made Twilight eager to see how he and everyone else would react to Goku's true power. Goku, despite that fact, continued to put up a fight with the form he had chosen right now, as he wanted to learn more of Jiren's power before getting more serious, though the difference in power allowed Jiren to throw him around like he was nothing more than a toy for him to dismantle.
With that in mind he slammed Goku into the ground and left a small crater where the Saiyan landed, where he landed on one of the rocks and stared down at his foe as he waited for something to happen, though how he crossed his arms told all of them that he assumed the battle was over.
"The battle is over, Son Goku... you've lost." Jiren stated, showing everyone that he believed that his overwhelming power was more than enough to settle the match here and now, instead of giving his foe a chance to actually show him all of his power, though in that moment he paused as he, not to mention everyone else, felt the pressure in the air shift as Champa and the gods of Universe 6 realized something they had totally forgotten, "What the...?"
"Sorry, Jiren, but I'm far from tapped out." Goku replied, where he emerged from the mess and stared at his foe, where all of the warriors and gods realized that something was different about him, his hair had taken on the form of Super Saiyan 2 while also retaining the color of Blue, though he shifted his stance without delay, "This is Super Saiyan Blue 2."
As Jiren realized that Goku had another form, however, the Saiyan rushed through the air and punched him square in the face, pushing him down into the floor of the stage without wasting time, something that forced him to regain himself as he went on the offensive once more. Twilight grinned as that happened, because Super Saiyan Blue 2 was far stronger than all of the forms that came before it, even base Blue for that matter, and it didn't look like anyone, save for the two Saiyans from Universe 6, even suspected that Goku had something beyond this form. Jiren had to dip into his well of power just to deal with Goku's new power, and while he was able to knock his foe into the ground, like he had done previously, the Saiyan just got back up with a smile on his face and kicked his opponent through some of the rocks as he released a few Ki blasts, which tore the area apart as they followed Jiren. Of course Belmod still didn't seem worried in the slightest, rather he had too much faith in Jiren's power as his warrior got back up and rushed into battle once more, where everyone watched as the collision of his energy and Goku's flattened the area around them, showing that both of them were skilled and both had great wells of power to call on.
Eventually Jiren pulled enough of his slumbering power out and managed to grab Goku by the head, allowing him to throw the Saiyan through some of the rocks that were around them, breaking more of the stage while doing so, and when Goku tried to rush at him the warrior simply kicked him hard in the chest and sent him down into the ground.
Goku, as Twilight expected, wasn't about to stop there as the air vibrated once more and he emerged in his penultimate form, Super Saiyan Blue 3, surprising everyone in the process since they clearly weren't expecting the Saiyan to even have another form after the one he had been using. This time around the power he was using allowed him to shatter rocks and the area around them with much greater ease than before, while at the same time his greater control allowed him to deal powerful blows to Jiren's chest, surprising the warrior since he clearly wasn't expecting this sort of power to be used against him in the entire tournament. Since he was getting used to Goku's new power, and was determining just how much he had to use to counter it, they watched as the Saiyan punched Jiren through some of the rock pillars and shattered them, taking the fight all over the large area that had been given to them by the rest of the warriors, and it was only now that Belmod had any worry that his warrior might be eliminated. Jiren even tried to reach for Goku's longer hair, figuring that it would be a way for him to regain control of the situation, but such a thing only allowed his foe to flip backwards onto his arm, leap into the air, and release a volley of Ki blasts down on where he was standing, blasting more of the stage away as Jiren was forced to back off.
Jiren rushed back into battle after calling forth more of his power, showing that he was taking this serious as he used both of his hands to try and divert Goku's attacks, only to find that he might have misjudged his foe's punches as several slipped through his defenses and struck him. Twilight knew what was going on and informed Caulifla accordingly, the power of the Super Saiyan Blue 3 form was far greater than the power that Super Saiyan Blue 2 commanded, in fact one could argue that it was an explosive growth in power and she would agree with them, since that was the difference between Super Saiyan 2 and Super Saiyan 3. The Saiyan from Universe 6 was amazed by the sheer power that was being thrown around right now, Goku utilizing a form that was capable of standing up to the overwhelming strength and power that Jiren had, while Beerus was pleased, since the more Jiren was pushed the greater Goku's chances of knocking him off the stage were. Jiren even had a chance to punch Goku in the side of the face and found that his foe didn't seem to care, rather he smiled as he punched his opponent in return and kicked him hard in the chest, pushing him back into one of the rock pillars, which they were now running out of, based on what Twilight was seeing.
This time around Jiren shattered the rocks around him by releasing even more of his power, creating a red heat aura in the process, as Twilight could feel actual heat coming from it, that vanished after the warrior had accomplished his goal, but he rushed back into battle without wasting time. He was now stronger than before, which seemed to be common for Jiren, given everything that had happened so far, and it sure seemed like he was being forced to use far more of his power than even he expected when he was told to take Goku down, to the point where Twilight was sure he was nearing his own limits. Goku felt that power as Jiren resumed his assault, the collision of their fists shattering everything around them as the pair remained in the same spot, meaning they were more focused on fighting and less on moving, though it was easy to see that, despite being powered up, Jiren might actually be losing ground as he blocked a kick, as he started to move back as Goku spun around and knocked him down into the ground. That was when he seemed to use all of his strength as he punched his foe into the chin, grabbed him while he was in the air, and slammed him down into the ground with far more force than necessary, creating cracks in the arena floor with ease as he backed up, all while Goku reverted back to his base form.
To anyone who wasn't used to how Saiyans worked this was seen as the end of the battle, that Goku had lost and that his ring out was about to happen, where Jiren huffed for a moment as he backed up and focused down on the crater, almost as if he might be disappointed that the battle was over, just like that.
"This time, Son Goku, the battle is truly over." Jiren remarked, though this time he kept his guard up as he started to make his way down to where his foe was resting, but as he took the first step, however, the Null Realm started to shake, which caused him and the observing gods to realize that the fight wasn't over yet, "No... it can't be..."
Blue lightning flashed in the air, striking the ground in several places around the arena floor, as Goku transformed into his final form, where everything around him shattered to dust as he floated out of the crater, revealing the Super Saiyan Blue 4 form to everyone that was watching them.
"This is the pinnacle of what a Saiyan is capable of: Super Saiyan Blue 4, a form that is far above what the other forms are capable of." Twilight stated, though she was pleased by the fact that the gods of the other universes were surprised by this turn of events, as it meant they had underestimated the other universes, especially hers, and she could see that Jiren was taken aback by the transformation as well.
Goku shifted his stance as he went on the offensive, punching Jiren in the chest before knocking him to the side with a kick from his right leg, shattering everything that was in the path of the attack as he demonstrated the sheer power he held in this form, before he rushed after his opponent. As Jiren recovered, however, it was far too easy to find that he was angry over what was going on, that there was someone who could match his power and even overcome it, while at the same time all of the watchers were amazed by the power Goku possessed, as if they were now understanding why Universe 7 had risen in the rankings so fast. It was clear that no one had been able to reach his level since he gained his power, that much Twilight could tell as the two moved around the stage, shattering everything around them as blue lightning flashed and hit the ground, the sheer impact of their attacks causing things to crumple to dust around them. While they fought an interesting thing happened, Jiren summoned all of his power and lashed out at Goku, crushing him and the area around him with both his flaming aura and a barrage of Ki blasts that tore everything around him apart, before he released what looked like a massive aura cloud that covered the area above the stage.
He was preparing a massive blast, one that almost looked like a sun as it shrunk down to the size of a head, that he sent down into the crater he had knocked Goku into, though as that happened all of it vanished as Goku surged into the air, caught it, and landed near his foe, only to position his hands, and the energy sphere, near his right side before using it in a really powerful Kamehameha blast that Jiren avoided.
This was one of the few unique abilities that a Saiyan gained when utilizing the Super Saiyan 4 transformation, and it had carried over to Super Saiyan Blue 4 as well, the power to take an enemy's energy attack, gain control of it, and then use it in whatever manner they wanted. It was similar to an energy absorption ability, much like Twilight's ability, but it didn't do anything to the user's own energy, rather it was simply a way for them to use a foe's attack against them and potentially turn the tide, though when it came to fighting her, for example, it was a power neither Goku or Vegeta used since it would only strengthen her in the end. Against the likes of Jiren, however, the ability was incredibly powerful, especially since the warrior from Universe 11 had avoided his transformed attack, as if sensing that taking it head on was a bad thing, but that only opened the way for Goku to lay into him, his strength growing as the moments went by. As their fists collided Twilight knew what it was, this form had an explosive growth rate, in fact it matched her insane growth speed, and while Jiren had been stronger a few moments ago he was now being left in the dust by Goku, fueling his own rage as it slowly pulled more of his latent energy to the surface.
With all of this happening Belmod was freaking out, he had never seen anyone stand up to Jiren like this, and when Jiren tried to unleash a flurry of Ki blasts on Goku, to knock him down, the Saiyan kicked him in the chest and stole his attack as they came at him, allowing him to return them to Jiren as they struck his chest, blasting him into a rock pillar that was on the outskirts of where they had been fighting.
"Now I understand why Belmod wanted you defeated first... you really are the strongest warrior in your universe." Jiren remarked, taking just a moment to pull himself free of the pillar he had been blasted into, where he found that the front of his attire was tattered and ruined in places, meaning he had to be careful with how he tackled the rest of this fight, as Goku had the power to take him down if he wasn't careful.
"Did Belmod tell you that I'm the strongest warrior in my universe? Because that's wrong." Goku replied, as while he was honored to have Jiren think of him in such a way, that he stood above everyone else that happened to be from Universe 7, he wanted to make sure the warrior knew the truth of the matter as he beckoned to Twilight, causing Jiren to glance at her as many of the gods focused on her as well, "I'm the second strongest... or maybe I'm the fourth, since it's been awhile since I've fought Frieza and Cooler... but the honor of being the strongest warrior in our universe goes to Twilight Sparkle, Dark Queen of the Demon Realm and Ruler of the Known Universe."
The word 'demon' triggered Jiren as he burst out of the pillar, rushed into the air, and zeroed in on Twilight without delay, where she got up and raised a hand, stopping the attack as she caught his fist and hurled the enraged warrior off to the side, where he landed near Toppo, who had clearly never seen the warrior in such a state.
"Toppo, call the warriors of the other universes to you. I require no distractions for my next fight." Jiren stated, which was followed by both his fellow teammate and his gods being surprised, though Twilight already knew what was going through his mind as he stared at her and her team, something in him had snapped and he was going to use the other universes to keep Universe 7 busy.
"So that's what he wants... to unite all of the other universes against us." Twilight commented, something that caused the pair of Saiyans from Universe 6 to raise their eyebrows as they heard Toppo call for everyone to come to him, while at the same time everyone from her universe remained in one area, before she considered how Jiren had reacted to gaining a bit of information about her, "He wants to fight me, without having to worry about such powerful warriors rushing to my aid if I am overwhelmed... it's touching, but unnecessary. My team knows not to interfere with my fights."
As the warriors of the universes turned to face Universe 7, showing that they understood the danger that a team with all of their fighters posed to everyone else, two warriors walked away from everyone else, much to Champa's annoyance, as it was none other than Hit, followed closely by Cabba.
"Well, you won't be fighting them alone... I know we aren't as strong as your team, but you seem to have a good wish that you want to have granted, so we'll join you." Caulifla said, because if Hit was turning away from the other warriors, to join those from Universe 7, that meant it was best if they did so as well, especially after discovering that the power that Goku and Vegeta had was far beyond what she had imagined upon hearing of Super Saiyan Blue 4, "Besides, it seems like this is going to be fun."
Twilight said nothing to that as her team, now boosted by the presence of Hit, Cabba, Caulifla, and Kale, faced the rest of the warriors from the other universes, showing the gods that a change had swept through the tournament and that the end was vastly approaching, and she was eager to see what sort of fights were going to happen next.

Well things are about to go really crazy.
When you think you are a god, but you aren't even a mouse to the true god.
Hail Twilight Sparkle!
Oh, this is a brand new and alternative way to end the tournament quite quickly?
All the four remaining "antagonistic" Universes ( 11th, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Since 9th and 10th are already "eliminated". )
V.S.
The entirety of Universe 7, and some loyal allies from Universe 6.
This is like Avengers: Endgame. And Twilight vs Jiren is definitely going to be the main focus.
I really can't wait to read the next chapter

Unless Twilight dethroned Zeno, then she needs to remember her place in the pecking order. I've not been paying a lot of attention to this story, so I don't know if Twilight actually is legitimately a god or not.
11634757 Twilight is a Demon Goddess, much like Towa before her, and she rules over the entirety of the Demon Realm as it's Dark Queen.
11634805
... I left Super before any of that came up. I quit during the Zamasu mess because frankly, I couldn't stand it. That's probably not helping my case on where Twilight actually stands on the power scale.
11634807 Understandable. The Zamasu arc was just a mess, so I don't blame you for quitting during that period of time.
Twilight's full power is on par with Jiren's full power
11635808
She had a terrible first impression with the Z Fighters at first. And considering that Vegeta was a total d*** to her in the beginning. She even died once, and then lost her cold family due to their actions. So, can you hardly blame her for hating them, and just "tolerate" them until they finally make amends after the Android/Cell Saga.
It has a vastly different context and circumstance, not to mention we the audience knew it was coming in some form, but given how Goku vs Jiren seemed to be going, I couldn't help comparing this situation from Jiren's perspective to that moment from Bleach where Ichigo failed to stab Ulquiorra and voiced his assumption that the arrancar was the top Espada, only for Ulquiorra to drag Ichigo's blade through his jacket to reveal the big, damning '4' on his chest. It has the same 'you were doomed before you started' energy despite the vastly different mood, not to mention the obvious reversal of which side never had a chance.
Champa has a negative,charisma value by this point
Hot damn... This is where the fight has run most of its course. Universe 7 and some Universe 6 fighters vs everyone else.
