A'ight, so I've been out of DBS since the ending of Trunks arc, what have I missed?
Zen'ō promised to do the Tournament of Power, but with a twist.
All the universes that lose get erased. 4 universes aren't competing because their quality of life is pretty high though. Universe 7 has the second lowest rating, only beating Universe 9.
Before this tournament there's an exibition match between Universe 7 and 9. Goku, Gohan and Buu vs 3 wolf brothers named Trio De Dangers.
U7 wins of course. The Gods of Destruction hate Goku's guts since Goku asked for the tournament to be held (even though it's revealed Zen'ō was going to destroy the universes anyways, but now each universe can fight for a chance to survive)
Some Universe 11 guy named Toppo wants to beat Goku up for this. Toppo fights pretty well against Goku. And Goku eventually goes SSB Kaioken on him, but Daishinkan stops the match. Toppo reveals that his friend Jiren is even stronger than him. Much stronger in fact.
Also Tournament of Power is a battle royale where 80 people (10 from each universe) fight at once. Goal is to knock people out the ring but you can't kill them. Universe with most people still on the ring when 48 minutes is up wins. Additionally fighters can't fly in this tournament either unless they have wings like a bird.
Goku recruits Gohan, Vegeta, Piccolo, Krillin, Tien, Android 17, Android 18, Master Roshi and Buu to fight on his team. Except Buu fell asleep and won't wake up. So Goku had to replace him with Frieza of all people.
Tournament is about to start. Frieza plans on betraying Universe 7 and Goku gets giddy after meeting Jiren, the super powerful fighter Toppo talked about.
Oh also Whis said that there's a mortal out there stronger than a God of Destruction that's stronger than Beerus. No one knows who it is yet, but most think it's Jiren. That's just speculation for now though.
