Beryl:
She thinks: So wait....he dies either way. That he means he is somehow selfless? But if he dies and Jade does not, how does that win him anything? He is a leader he must have his followers on his planet, he dies and a bunch of Veru'nas are going to avenge him....and quickly get killed for doing so. If Jade dies, well- that will tick off a few people both powerful and non. Apfel would be able to hold back some, but who knows how much of his influence is tied to Jades? Fans or followers of one person don't always translate to respecting another person as much. Sure Jade will be brought back in years time anyways, many ways she saw this unfolding involved his planet either get destroyed or massively ruined and punished for this. Unless he is confident enough in his anti-ki tech that his people will prevail anyways? All it takes is one ki user to figure out a trick- or do that break through limits thing they sometimes did, they seemed to be able to judge power through things randomly, perhaps she should look into how that possible?- and their planet is destroyed.
Because the problem with paragons and such, is that even if people look up to paragons not everyone is one. A fan of Jade could easily look at her example, admire it, wish they could live up to it- then destroy a planet anyways rationalizing that they make a sacrifice so that she wouldn't have to or something like that. Especially if they are ruled by emotions in the wake of her demise, and the Dragon Balls aren't widely known. Such a hypothetical is an extreme to be sure, an edge case, but threats like these in a galaxy of countless people makes edge cases something near an inevitability. As their lives have proven, more unlikely things have already happened.
So yeah, she doesn't see how any of this benefits anyone, not even the Veru'nas. Who did Jade send? Oxyribo? Vodkana? one of the Unkillables? she wouldn't be surprised if any of them found some weird way around such anti-ki defenses, but somehow she doubts that. bacon sounds more like a majin thing. Jade wouldn't send someone who couldn't tell the difference between friend or foe. Too much unknowns. She decides to take Nelnine aside and whispers to him.
"I don't know, I really don't. But just remember this simple rule: there are some people in this world, that are powerful beyond belief, that can destroy you in an instant, and that fighting them isn't always the right solution. The only thing we can do is keep out of the fighting, or we're dead. I'm in no state to defend you. Whoever is coming, don't tick them off."
Whether any of this is morally or ethically right is another issue, for a less hectic time.
