In "Dragon Ball Super" episode 78, Goku will try to enlist additional allies to help him win their matches against the teams of Universe 9. The first person he tries to convince is Gohan. However, his son hesitates to join his father in the competition. Being a scholar, the young son of Goku has been busy studying. In other words, he has not been fighting anymore.
Goku Will Be Able To Get Others To Join Him
But it was revealed that in the Tournament of Power, Universe 7 will be represented not just by Goku, but also by nine others. These nine characters include Gohan, Vegeta, Piccolo, Majin Bu, Android 17, Android 18, Master Roshi, Tien, and Krillin. In other words, Goku will eventually find more than two allies to join him in the "Dragon Ball Super" episode 78 competition.
The group has to face the formidable challenge of the Tournament of Power. Omni-King has declared that if competitors lose their match, their world will be obliterated. It appears that there will be a match that pits three against three. That is the reason why Goku has tried hard to convince two additional combatants to join him.
The Match Between Universe 7 And Universe 9 Is A Warm-Up Fight
It is clear that the upcoming episode of "Dragon Ball Super" episode 78 will feature a fight between Universe 7 and Universe 9. However, it is not actually the first match of the Tournament of Power. It will be more like a warm-up fight. It seems that the Omni-King is the one who wanted to see this preliminary match between Goku and his teammates against the three warriors of Universe 9.
The purpose of the Tournament of Power in "Dragon Ball Super" episode 78 is to determine who the strongest warriors are in the many universes. Instead of one-on-one battles, the Omni-King declared that it will be more like a team competition. It is unclear whether these competitions will be two versus two or five versus five. However, in the preliminary matches, the battle will be three versus three. This is the reason why Goku is getting two more allies to join him in their warm-up fight against the three warriors of Universe 9.
