Trunks is ready for those vines. Quick-reflexes and bursts of ki helping either cut the vines or dodge them. It was tricky, but no worse than facing 17 and 18 in some ways. One hand went for his phone, where Anan had recorded a message.

Invoking his Diaged-given power, Trunks stopped time for all but himself. Using it to queue the video up, and move to where it was close to Malin's face before time started again. 2-5 seconds, but he was making them count.

If this didn't work, he'd focus on escaping.
