If it consumes realities to survive, then depriving it of realities to consume should start starving it.” Towa continues, raising a hand to her chin thoughtfully. “But if she's been doing this for so long, and it still remains, then there's no doubt that starving it either isn't or hasn't worked.”
“What is that?” Meloka asks, pointing at one of the screens. Towa turns, following her gaze.
“Ah, that's Hadar. If what Karn overheard from Mechikabura and Towa's conversation is true, this is the entity that would have evolved into the beast that could survive the entire reality being unwritten.” Towa says as you look at what is a blood-red star, barely glowing. Yet, even through the image on the screen, you can almost <span class="mu-i">feel</span> the hunger from it. Only to watch as it draws near a planet and dark tendrils, dark even against the void of space lash out from it, grabbing the planet and drawing the smaller entity into itself. Consuming that planet whole, devouring it near-instantly. “How it could survive is beyond me, perhaps the wrong being or beings were consumed by it near the end of the original timeline? Who knows what the original reality looked like, before her erasure of it all.”
A moment of silence hangs over you all before she hskaes her head, continuing.
“Regardless, the Tournament of Power is our most pressing issue. Eldritch entities beyond understanding and reality aren't here yet, but there's only thirteen and a half hours until the Tournament of Power begins. And if we lose, we'll all be completely erased anyways. So, let's focus on this first.”
“Right. So, you were showing us Jiren?” you ask, Towa nodding and bringing back the display she'd had before. Showing you several different battles against the Grey.
However, one thing you notice consistently, is how much he's just holding back. Refusing to fully power up, even when fighting three on one against two Blue Saiyans, one even Beyond Blue and the other with Kaio-Ken. Or the assassin Hit from the Sixth, easily knocking him around without any seeming effort. Only for Hit to trap him in some sort of Time Prison, using his Time Skip to lock Jiren in place in time. Only for him to somehow POWER THROUGH TIME ITSELF, slowly closing the distance and easily besting Hit's last-ditch attack. Sending him from the ring, crossing his arms confidently towards the screen as the attack detonates as if taking a picture.
“So, he's the big threat. You think he can beat Moro?” your wife replies, Towa's brows furrowing.
