The first round of the tournament begins: Reo (Group 1), who has the power of Earth, vs. Zedd (Group 4), who has the power of Electric (a special member from Group 4).
Nero asks Uro: "Are these guys strong?"
Uro replied: "Ummmm... kinda..."
Nero: "Kinda?"
Uro: "Yeah, but in this round, it's completely a one-sided match."
Nero: "What do you mean one-sided?"
Uro: "You see… if Earth goes against Lightning, Reo might be strong and almost max-powerful, but Zedd is just faster than light. I know Zedd. For more than 100 years, he only focuses on his speed and only one attack. That one attack can also defeat me if I was hit by it. But I can see his moves, that's where he loses to me."
Nero: "Wait, you can see future moves?! That’s so cool. I want to learn it too!"
Uro: "It's not that simple. You need to train as much as you can and also learn the ability of your opponent."
The fight begins.
Reo starts with his "Rock Rumble" move where all stones turn into spikes and tries to catch the enemy. He is running, but in this case, Zedd tries to reflect his own attack on him, so he starts running toward Reo. But Reo somehow dodges his own attack.
Zedd starts laughing and says: "Nice dodge, Reo, let's…"
A rock hammer hits right at Zedd's face!!
Zedd hit directly on the ground. After a few seconds, he woke up and said...
"Okay… let’s end this right now" In an angry tone, Zedd teleports behind Reo and used light attack named 49000 K.v attack. And it directly hit Roi and he fall unconscious Referee started counting to 1… 2… and 3, and Zedd won in one touch.
Nero: "Woh!! He just won in one touch!"
Uro: "Not a big surprise for me, of course."
The second round was between Nero vs Ishi (Group 4). Ishi has the power of Ice.
Uro: "Come on Ishi, beat that guy’s ass!"
Nero: "Ahh… This bastard again!"
Ishi: "I heard you are a new member of Group 3, hmm… nice. I hope I get a real competition."
Nero (taking position): "You bet" (smiling).
Nero’s aura starts increasing, and all the audience from different universes start feeling it.

Ishi: "There we go!"
Nero starts running towards Ishi in super speed, but Ishi punches Nero on his stomach so hard that he flew throughout the boundary line. Nero lost the round and became unconscious.
The crowd starts laughing.
Uro: "Ow… Hell… Nah… even I expected something from him. But there we go… yeah…"
Nero said: "How am I so weak even after I had the power of the strongest warriors?"
Nero instantly got some weird feeling, and a guy with a mask appeared in his brain (The one who was on the highway incident). He said just one word: "LOSER."
After that, Nero got a flashback of Sine covered with blood. Nero’s aura again starts increasing. His eyes start becoming black in color, and it was looking like he is not conscious. Nero rapidly dashed toward Ishi and passed through him.
Nobody realized what happened. Everyone got shocked after what happened. They all saw Ishi’s intestines go, and Guts were out, hanging and covered with blood.
Everyone was shocked and said, "Is he dead?"
"OMG, that's so brutal,"
"Wow look, his Guts are out, that's so thrilling!"
Roi (Special member of Group 3) (Has power of Healing, and he is immortal and he is the smartest person in omniverse).
Roi's face was irritated and was like:
"Again all this sh*t!"
Roi cut his stomach and put onto Ishi's body part. And he starts healing.
Nero was going to attack Roi, too, but Uro froze Nero's leg and tried to make him unconscious by brain freezing, but instead of getting unconscious, he came back to normal.
Uro starts wondering why his brain freezing power doesn’t work on him even if he is more powerful than him.
Roi said: "Wow!! What a weird thing. He can’t control his power in normal form. That was his 'Ikari Ketai Rage 1'!"
Uro: "rage 1?? This sounds so cringe"
Roi: "Well..., like who knows how many rages forms he has, but we can’t ignore the fact that he killed Ishi in one shot. We have to make a backup plan to avoid coincidence. But it looks like you are his biggest weakness and for that, you have to become max stronger."
Uro: "Yaa… but my power, like brain freeze, doesn’t work on him. I don’t know why, but this thing is buzzing me off."
Roi: "So? Isn’t that confusing?"
Uro: "Isn’t that confusing?? You serious? Even Sine’s body was affected when his power isn’t activated."
Roi: "Ooo… I get it now. Nero still doesn’t know how to affect [control] his power. He is always activating his given powers. That’s why he is wastes all his energy so many times and can’t even use his full potential."
Uro: "So we have to teach him, don’t we?"
Roi: "Ya, it looks like that."
Uro: "Yeah, I will teach him in 'my way'!"
Will Nero be able to control his power? Can Uro teach him with all this hate against Nero?
