Hello and welcome back all my Dragon Ball theorist this was quite a ride in the new
chapter 51 of the Dragon Ball Super Manga.
It just came out today and we will be discussing it now so
if you want to read it first before I get into this chapter, now is that time.
I prefer to read it on Viz and you can get the recent chapters for Free if you are all
caught up.
So now that we got the formalities and warning out
of the way.
As expected everyone who is split up would be trying to formulate a plan in order to
handle Moro and his Magic.
With the cliff hangar the last chapter ended on with Vegeta heading to Yardrat I was really
hoping we would see more development of what exactly he has planned there.
Except we had the chapter jumping around to each party showing
what is happening with the time that has passed.
We didn't advance further into the specifics in that story as Vegeta's ship was a week
out from arriving at Yardrat.
So in the meantime he will be catching up on some rest before he arrives.
All he did share before heading to sleep was that the Denizens of that planet aren't
suited for physical combat, but employ a number of strange techniques.
Which we all knew that Vegeta thought that the Yardrat secrets could help him.
He won't be made a fool again and is seeking power that will help him defeat
Moro, the escaped convicts and even Kakkarot!!
Now onto Moro and his army of course isn't sleeping but moving through the galaxy at
tremendous speeds as Saganbo's ship is the fastest in the galaxy.
Moro actually has no interest in pursuing Goku and Vegeta either he is only
focused on planet hoping absorbing precious life to become stronger.
Makes sense since there really isn't anything that is a threat to him and the
more energy he absorbs only makes it more impossible to defeat him.
I do want to go into Moro's plan but will leave that for another video as I want to
get to the actual bombshell of the chapter.
Which is what we knew all along.
There is something going on with Merus.
There have been subtle clues to Merus being much stronger than he has led onto be ever
since that first day he arrived and knocked out both Goku and Vegeta.
He has always handled everything easily and never actually been in any danger even when
facing Moro.
So now back at Galactic HQ after we learn that Moro has gotten stronger.
Merus says even if we could confront Moro now our odds of victory are virtually zero.
Which Goku then chimes in even if "YOU" were fighting seriously?
That is right Merus the jig is up.
Goku wants to do a little test to which Merus is surprised.
Now Goku standing in front of Merus he has every intention of finding his true power.
As expected though Merus was able to easily get
out of the way.
Goku lets him know that he planned on connecting with that punch and Merus calmly says "yes!
that is why I dodged it" So now it's time for a quick sparring match to see
what Merus true power is really like.
Goku in base form can't even land a blow, so quickly goes into Super Saiyan which Merus
easily reads his movements and spins him out of the way.
Goku now has seen enough and goes SSJ 3 against Merus but it's the same result.
With a flurry of attacks he comes up empty and decides to now try Super Saiyan God.
Unfortunately the room they are sparring in can't hold this
type of power being released by Goku and he is forced to stop before destroying everything.
Merus asks Goku if he is satisfied.
Which Goku said just as I thought.
I got it!
How about you train me!
Now Goku would never ask such a thing without him knowing full well that he is outmatched
in many ways.
Which is why he states that despite not having a total
feel for Merus strength he can tell.
It seems like you know plenty that I don't.
Am I wrong?
Merus doesn't deny it and allows Goku to continue where he then states that there is a move
of mine I am still trying to master.
It's all about letting the body move on instinct, so it might work against Moro even when he
starts absorbing my energy.
I have a feeling that training with you could get me closer to Mastering it.
So finally a part of the story we expected with all the foreshadowing of Merus having
incredible powers is now confirmed.
Just the real question is why is he in the Galactic Patrol, why
isn't he fighting Moro seriously? and What are his true intentions?
We still have more questions than answers and it looks like Merus is taken back by Goku
like many are and wants to say something but then just agrees to help him
with training to achieve Ultra Instinct.
I guess the biggest question is, does Merus know Ultra Instinct and if he does what are
his origins.
Goku who has been trained by Whis which you can't ask for a better master than that
seems to think this Merus fellow will do in helping him achieve Ultra Instinct instead.
Goku's hunch will probably pay off and I can't wait to see him going all out against Merus
and for us to actually learn of this mysterious characters
true identity.
As for the rest of the chapter we have bandits heading to Earth, which when they get there
they will be in for a surprise as they will be met by Piccolo, Krillin and Gohan.
However if they call Moro then the final battle will end up
on Earth.
Vegeta is just arriving at planet Yardrat but will he have enough time.
I really enjoyed this chapter as it finally touched on Merus true powers which have been
bothering me since this Arc began.
So finally happy that we have this development and with
everything going on in this Arc and story has me wanting more now every month.
I hope everyone is having a great week!
Tell me what you thought of Dragon Ball Super Manga chapter 51.
Who do you think Merus real identity is and does
he actually know Ultra Instinct?
