When a God of Destruction Was Reincarnated in Tensura:

Chapter 173: Leon vs. Top – The Unbreakable Knight vs. the Pride Trooper!



The battlefield had barely settled from the explosive clash between Vegeta and Draguel, and yet, the tension in the air had only thickened. The next match that caught the attention was ongoing.

On one side of the arena stood Leon Cromwell, the Platinum Saber, the unbreakable knight whose golden armor shone like the morning sun. His blade, Solomon, radiated an ethereal light, pulsating with divine judgment. His stance was poised and regal, his gaze calm but filled with unyielding determination.

On the other side was Top, the Pride Trooper of Universe 11, his muscular frame towering like an unshakable pillar of strength. His energy crackled wildly, his aura vibrating with the power of destruction itself. A faint red glow pulsed on his chest—the mark of the God of Destruction. His eyes burned with unyielding justice, locked onto Leon with fierce intent.

Beerus grinned from his throne. "This is an interesting one. A battle between the ideals of justice and the resolve of a Demon Lord."

Whis chuckled. "Yes, though Leon is unlike the others. He doesn't carry the same chaotic nature as Guy or Milim. His justice… is his own."

Leon took a step forward, his radiant energy intensifying. "Top, you call yourself a warrior of justice, but tell me… what justice is there in absolute destruction?"

Top clenched his fists, his ki flaring, shaking the air around them. "Justice exists to protect the innocent! Those who threaten peace must be erased without hesitation. That is the role of a God of Destruction!"

Leon narrowed his eyes. "Then your justice is no different from tyranny."

Top growled, his energy surging as he took a stance. "We'll see whose justice is superior."

Beerus raised his hand and brought it down.

"BEGIN!"

The Battle Erupts!

Top blitzed forward, the ground cratering beneath him, his fist glowing with destructive energy.

Leon barely had time to raise his blade before Top's colossal punch met his sword.

BOOOOOM!

The impact sent shockwaves rippling through the battlefield, forcing Leon back as sparks exploded from the clash. The sheer force of Top's power cracked the very air around them.

Leon's feet skidded back, but he barely flinched. His eyes shone with golden light, his blade humming with divine power.

Top lunged again, this time unleashing a barrage of laser-like energy blasts from his fingers, each one laced with Hakai energy.

Leon twirled Solomon in a flash, deflecting the incoming attacks with inhuman precision, his blade cutting through the destructive energy as if it were mere mist.

"Solomon's Judgment!"

A massive wave of divine light erupted from Leon's sword, cleaving through the sky, heading straight for Top.

BOOOOM!

Top crossed his arms, bracing himself as the attack engulfed him in a blinding explosion. For a moment, the entire battlefield was bathed in pure, golden light.

But then—

A terrifying red aura burst forth, dispelling the holy radiance like a storm tearing through the clouds.

From within the light, Top emerged, his body now covered in the unmistakable aura of destruction.

"Hmph. I was holding back."

Leon's eyes sharpened. "So this is the power of a God of Destruction?"

Top grinned, his body brimming with destructive energy. "Now, let's see if you can survive it!"

God of Destruction vs. Bringer of Judgment!

Top vanished.

Leon's instincts screamed danger, but before he could react, Top was already upon him.

A devastating uppercut—

Leon barely had time to block with his sword, but the force behind the attack was astronomical! He was sent flying, crashing through floating islands in the arena.

Before he could recover—

BOOM!

Top teleported right above him, clasping both hands together and hammering Leon downward, sending him plummeting like a meteor.

The impact shattered the ground beneath him, forming a massive crater.

Beerus chuckled, watching the spectacle. "Top's not holding back anymore. I wonder how Leon plans to counter that raw destruction."

Whis smiled knowingly. "Leon is not one to falter easily."

From within the crater, a blinding golden light erupted.

Leon rose once more, his body surrounded by pure divine radiance. His golden armor gleamed, his blade now burning with celestial fire.

"Solomon's Edict!"

Leon swung his sword, and six enormous rings of holy light formed around Top, encasing him in a celestial prison.

Top growled, pushing against the barriers, but the holy magic resisted his destructive force.

"Your power is impressive, Top," Leon admitted. "But destruction without control is nothing but chaos. Allow me to show you true power!"

Leon raised his sword to the heavens—a brilliant pillar of light erupted from his blade, piercing the skies.

"Solomon's Wrath!"

A torrential wave of divine energy rained down upon Top, the sheer magnitude of the attack threatening to obliterate everything in its path.

But then—

Top roared, his Hakai aura flaring violently, and he shattered the divine rings imprisoning him.

"HAAAAAAA!"

He thrust his hands forward, and an enormous sphere of destructive energy formed, pulsating with raw, annihilating force.

"Hakai: Absolute Erasure!"

He hurled the deadly sphere at Leon, the battlefield trembling under its destructive pressure.

Leon stood firm, his golden aura shining even brighter.

"I will not falter!"

He charged headfirst into the attack, slicing through the Hakai energy with one decisive slash!

The energy split apart, dispersing into the void.

Top's eyes widened. "What?!"

Before he could react—

Leon appeared before him in a golden flash, his body radiating a blinding divine glow. His blade hummed with celestial energy, its power magnified to the absolute limit.

Top barely had time to react.

BOOM!

Leon delivered a devastating slash, Solomon's Judgment, that tore through the very space around them, the sheer force sending shockwaves across the battlefield.

Top crossed his arms, forming a barrier of Hakai energy, but the moment Leon's blade met it—

CRACK!

The barrier shattered like fragile glass, and Top was sent flying backward, crashing through floating islands in the battlefield.

Leon didn't relent.

He vanished again—then reappeared above Top mid-flight, swinging his sword downward in an earth-shattering strike.

"Divine Saber!"

Top gritted his teeth, throwing up both hands, summoning a sphere of Hakai energy and punching upward, releasing a cataclysmic explosion to counter Leon's descending slash.

KABOOOOOM!

The collision ripped apart the battlefield, the sky splitting in two, shockwaves tearing through the distant void.

Beerus leaned forward in his throne, intrigued. "Not bad. Leon's divine energy is holding up against pure destruction."

Whis smiled. "Indeed. This is a rare clash. Top's power seeks to erase all things, while Leon's light seeks to impose divine order. Which will prevail?"

Back in the battle—

Leon and Top clashed in midair, their blows so fast that only flashes of light and destruction could be seen. Every punch, every strike, every counterattack created sonic booms that shook the entire floating battleground.

Top suddenly spun midair, striking Leon with a devastating elbow to the ribs, sending him plummeting down.

But just before he hit the ground—

Leon flipped, his golden aura expanding, and he disappeared in an instant.

Top's eyes narrowed.

"Where—"

SLASH!

A searing golden arc of light erupted across Top's chest as Leon reappeared behind him, blade dripping with divine energy.

Top growled in pain, his muscles tensed.

"Enough of this!"

His red aura flared violently, and with a roar—

"Hakai Pulse!"

He released an omnidirectional wave of pure destruction, obliterating everything within a kilometer radius.

Leon barely managed to raise his sword, but the sheer force sent him flying, crashing through three floating islands before skidding to a halt.

He took a deep breath, wiping a small trickle of blood from his lip. Top was pushing him.

"I see… so this is your conviction."

He gripped his blade tighter.

"Then let me show you mine!"

"Solomon's Wrath!"

Leon raised his sword, and suddenly, the skies darkened.

Multiple golden rings of divine energy appeared above Top, forming an enormous celestial construct in the sky.

A moment later—

A torrential storm of divine light rained down upon Top.

Top braced himself, but the sheer force of the descending divine energy pushed him to his limits.

His body glowed with destruction energy, and with a final roar—

"Hakai: Absolute Erasure!"

Top thrust his hands forward, creating a gigantic sphere of Hakai energy, one so massive that it dwarfed even the battlefield itself.

The two attacks collided in the sky—

And then—

BOOOOOOOOOOOM!

A blinding explosion engulfed everything, its impact so great that even Beerus and Whis watched with curiosity.

For a moment, there was nothing but light.

Then—

As the smoke cleared, Leon stood tall, sword pointed downward. His armor was scorched, but his energy remained radiant.

Top, however, was on one knee, his body battered, his destruction aura flickering.

He grinned. "Damn… I didn't think you'd actually match me."

Leon extended a hand. "You are strong, Top. But power must be wielded wisely, even destruction. Justice must be guided by wisdom."

Top chuckled, taking his hand. "Hmph. Maybe you're right."

As they stood, the battlefield erupted in cheers.

Beerus smirked. "That was an entertaining fight."

Whis nodded. "Indeed. But the tournament isn't over yet."
