Vegeta Takes the Stage

Vegeta reacts with disbelief that Jiren eliminated Hit. Top calls Vegeta the second-best warrior of Universe 7, which infuriates the prince. Declaring himself the strongest in existence, Vegeta transforms into Perfected Super Saiyan Blue. He swats Dyspo aside and unloads on Top, knocking him down. Top concedes that Vegeta may rival Goku but insists it will not be enough.

Android 17 fights Botamo from Universe 6. Physical attacks bounce off Botamo's body, but a devastating punch to his midsection sends the rubbery fighter springing out of bounds. Piccolo eliminates Dyrasem, and then Gohan, Piccolo, and Android 17 team up to dispatch Methiop, Napapa, and Dium from Universe 10.

Beauty and the Invisible Threat

Android 18 faces the Kamikaze Fireballs, who mock her appearance while boasting about their own beauty. Ribrianne presses a relentless assault, and Kakunsa and Roasie pin Android 18 down. Just as Ribrianne moves in for the finish, Krillin shouts in protest. Ribrianne is immediately smitten, asking who that handsome man is. Android 18 claims him as her husband, and the emotional turmoil shatters Ribrianne's focus, letting Android 18 break free.

Before she can press her advantage, an invisible force knocks Android 18 off the platform. Kakunsa, Roasie, and Ribrianne are struck down by the same unseen attacker. Piccolo uses his sensitive hearing to detect Gamisalas and blasts him off the ring. A second invisible fighter, Damom, strikes from behind and eliminates Piccolo. Android 17 is hit next but stays on the platform. Unable to sense ki, he uses his ears and pinpoints Damom hovering just above the ground. When the tiny fighter leaps into the air in a panic, Android 17 blasts him away. The Grand Minister announces that 37 fighters remain with 33 minutes left.
