Synopsis
Goku has come to recruit Freeza as the tenth member for the Tournament of Power! But Universe 9's God of Destruction Sidra, and Kaiōshin Rou, whom Sidra goaded into sending out assassins, set an ambush for the two of them! Faced with an army of assassins, Freeza transforms into his Golden form and mercilessly slaughters his enemies. Goku is too busy covering Freeza's surroundings to stop him. Then, in the midst of the battle, Freeza seems to have changed his objective... Meanwhile, in the World of Void, the Tournament of Power arena is finally completed! The present and future Omni-Kings are overjoyed at its quality!![1][2][3]
Summary
Freeza and Goku are surrounded by a gang of assassins sent by the gods of Universe 9. Goku figures they come from another universe, though he doesn't know which, and the assassins brag about how their universe is tough and hardcore, unlike the softies in Universe 7. Freeza thinks this other universe sounds like a splendid place...
Though Freeza has powered up into his Golden form, Goku wonders if he'll be alright like that. After all, there's barely any time left until the Tournament of Power, and that form uses up a lot of stamina. Freeza explains that enduring the "tortures" of his Hell have honed his mental concentration. Now his energy control skills have greatly improved, making him into the "true Golden Freeza", combining the ultimate in intensity with the delicacy to avoid even disturbing the surface of water.
With that, Freeza begins mercilessly killing the assassins. Before long, Goku urges him to stop, but Freeza figures that killing them here is no different than defeating them at the tournament, since losing at the tournament will mean their entire universe's destruction. In a panic, the assassins try and take the Fortuneteller Crone hostage, but Goku stops them and tells the Crone to hide inside her palace.
As Goku and Freeza butt heads, the doglike boss assassin recalls how Rou instructed him beforehand to maintain the cover story that he was going after Goku and Freeza purely of his will. At the same time, the Sidra entrusted him with a ball of "destruction energy" capable of harming anyone. Those hit by this energy will utterly cease to exist, and not even pass on to the afterlife.
The dog boss now tries to sneak-attack Freeza, who is stil; talking with Goku, but Freeza is already on to him, and arrogantly orders the dog to throw his attack white he leaves himself wide upon. The dog throws the ball, which Freeza easily dodges, then blows up with his own energy when it boomerangs back at him. However, this first energy ball was just a fake, and the dog produces the real ball of destruction energy...which Freeza simply blasts out of his hand, where it seemingly explodes.
However, the dog can still remotely control the energy ball, and he brings it up from under the water directly underneath Freeza, catching him by surprise. As Freeza struggles against the ball, its energy envelops him. It seems like Freeza has had it...but he's just joking. With great effort, he manages to concentrate the energy around him back into a small ball which he holds safely in hand. The dog can't believe his eyes, and is quickly shot down by Freeza.
Goku is greatly impressed with Freeza's feat, and wonders where that energy ball came from. Freeza thinks that such pure energy probably came from some god, so odds are another universe's God of Creation or Destruction wants them out of the way. Goku warns the remaining assassins that Universe 7 won't run or hide; they'll settle things fair and square at the tournament! But while Goku is shouting this, Freeza catches him off-guard and hits him with the ball of destruction energy.
Over in the World of Void, the Great Priest has finally completed the arena for the Tournament of Power. The two Omni-Kings are both very pleased with it, and give the Great Priest a candy as a reward. Back on Earth, Freeza taunts Goku for being naïve enough to let down his guard.
Freeza advises Goku to escape from that energy the way he did. But try as he might, Goku can't manage it, and Freeza wonders if he has grown too strong.
As Goku continues to struggle, Freeza confronts one of the remaining assassins: he wishes to speak with their universe's gods. At first the assassin refuses to speak, but he changes his tune after Freeza riddles him with energy beams. Still, Freeza wants him to keep quiet a little longer, so that he can enjoy torturing him some more. Desperate, the remaining assassins now all attack Freeza together.
Off in Universe 9, Rou and Sidra wonder what's taking their assassins so long; it's almost time to leave for the tournament! They receive a call on their crystal ball, but are surprised to find Freeza on the other end. He's borrowed a communicator from the assassins, and now knows their whole scheme. However, rather than rat out Universe 9 to the Omni-Kings, Freeza proposes that he join the Universe 9 team. After all, with Goku caught in the destruction energy, Universe 7 has no hope of winning. If Universe 9 will resurrect him, he'll be sure to serve them well in the tournament.
Sidra and Rou can't believe Freeza would be so callous as to betray his entire universe. While it seems there's no explicit rule against recruiting warriors from other universes, Rou thinks even if they recruit Freeza, he'll be sure to betray them too eventually, and he's not sure even Sidra could stop him. While Freeza watches the two argue via the communicator, Beerus and Whis arrive. Realizing he's out of time, Freeza destroys the communicator.
Beerus blows the destruction energy away from Goku, and it explodes harmlessly. He and Whis came since they were wondering what was holding Goku and Freeza up.
Recognizing the destruction energy, Beerus wonders what happened. Whis thinks Freeza was perhaps trying to gather intel on another universe, but Freeza remains evasive. Either way, Goku says it was all his fault for forgetting what an evil guy Freeza was.
Thinking to himself, Freeza realizes that this tournament is the perfect opportunity to manipulate even the gods; he'll eventually gain the upper hand against Beerus and get the last laugh! Meanwhile, Goku asks Whis for just one minute to spar against Freeza. Their match will end once one of them lands a punch. Goku says if he wins, Freeza will have to bury the hatchet and be their teammate in the tournament...but Freeza says if he wins, Goku will have to let him do as he wants.
Freeza has spent his time in Hell endlessly fighting simulated battles against Goku in his mind, and is totally certain of his chances of victory. Whis blows the starting whistle, and Goku and Freeza power up and charge each other, with Goku turning Super Saiyan Blue. They punch each other square in the face at the same time, and fall exhausted down into the water. It's a tie!
Goku reflects that Freeza's not the only one who's improved; while Freeza's been in Hell, he's been fighting strong guys from other universes. Goku vows to stop Freeza from killing any more bystanders, but Freeza won't take orders from Goku. As Beerus and Whis suspected, this sparring match has by no means settled the score between the two.
With the Tournament of Power about to begin, Goku, Freeza, Beerus, and Whis join the rest of the Universe 7 team at Capsule Corporation.
