Zamasu and Goku Black observe the aftermath of the explosion from their elevated vantage point. The sparks and flames from the detonation cast an eerie reflection in their eyes. As the explosive display subsides, Adrian grapples with the aftermath, laboriously rising to his feet. His appearance tells a tale of the intense confrontation—bruised and battered, blood marking his lip, and his jacket torn open, exposing a shirtless chest. Despite the evident toll, he stands resolute, clenching his fists tightly. Zamasu and Goku Black maintain their stoic silence, their gazes fixed on the figure before them, weathered by the impact of their formidable attack.

With a swift motion, he releases a barrage of ki blasts, interspersed with occasional beams, creating a relentless storm of energy directed at the ground. The continuous onslaught generates explosions in every direction, giving Adrian minimal space for evasion, yet he manages to navigate through the chaos. Simultaneously, as Adrian swiftly sidesteps, Zamasu emerges almost instantaneously at that precise location, descending with his foot aimed to crush him.

Goku Black, having ceased his relentless barrage of ki blasts from above, now focuses his energy, surrounded by a deep crimson and pink aura that intensifies with each passing moment.

Sensing imminent danger, he quickly glances upward and realizes the impending threat. Reacting swiftly, he leaps backward, putting significant distance between himself and the potential danger looming above.

After their intense charging sequence, Goku Black, his eyes now blank white, charges at Adrian, his aura flaring around him as he emits a resounding yell.

Finally, they clash, and in a flash of bright light, both fighters land punches on each other's face, knocking them both out. Their unconscious bodies plummet to the hard ground below, landing roughly and defeated.
