Summary[]

With Kale having come to following her rampage, Caulifla compliments her on how incredible she was. Meanwhile as Goku prepares to fight Jiren, Top suddenly ambushes him with the Justice Flash. Top and Jiren decide to retreat and conserve their stamina. This leaves Goku to be dealt with by Kahseral and their fellow Pride Troopers Tupper, Zoire, Cocotte, and Kettle. The five declare their intent to defeat Caulifla and Kale to avenge Vewon's defeat and the two are forced to form a temporary alliance with Goku.

Frieza about to eliminate Murichim

Meanwhile, Master Roshi performs the Thunder Shock Surprise on Universe 3's Za Priccio, noting that the technique also means that he is unable to move. However with assistance from Tien Shinhan and his Tri-Beam they are able to eliminate him. They regroup with Gohan and Piccolo who they had split up from following Kale's rampage and then Vegeta and Frieza, where he has defeated Murichim much to Vegeta's annoyance as he had intended to fight him.

Android 18 helps Goku

The Pride Troopers push Goku, Caulifla, and Kale to the brink, but Android 17 and Android 18 rescue them. Goku is caught in a bear hug from behin by Tupper who amplifies his weight to cause tremendous pressure on him but he is saved by No. 18 who defeats Tupper and throws him from the ring. Meanwhile No. 17 easily overpowers Kahseral despite his ability to turn his Ki into blades of energy. The remaining Pride Troopers regroup and focus their assault on the wounded Caulifla and Kale. Cocotte seals them in a separate dimension to ensure that Goku, No. 17, and No. 18 do not interfere.

Kale 03

Kale in control of her power

As the four beat on Caulifla, Kale's self-hatred at not being of use causes her to transform but she remains in control of herself this time. During the beam struggle, Caulifla and Kale find themselves getting overpowered until Kale returns to her Legendary Super Saiyan state with Caulifla turning into a Super Saiyan 2 and use an extremely powerful combination ki blast to defeat Kahseral, Zoire and Kettle. Cocotte seals herself in a mini-dimension to avoid the blast, but No. 18 simply throws it off, eliminating her.
