‘Dragon Ball Super’ Reveals The Why Jiren Will Fight Hit

Warning! Spoilers for Dragon Ball Super‘s 111th episode lies below!

Dragon Ball fans may be focusing on Jiren’s upcoming battle with Goku, but the Saiyan is not the only person the Pride Trooper will face. One of Dragon Ball Super‘s next episodes will see the fighter go up against Hit, and a brand-new synopsis just shed new light on the match-up.

Over on Twitter, a leaked synopsis of Dragon Ball Super‘s 111th episode started to circulate after a Korean translation appeared online. The description appears to come from Weekly Shonen Jump‘s upcoming issue, and translator Todd Blankenship turned around the synopsis for English-speaking fans. You can check out part of the description below:

“Universe 6’s linchpin Hit vs the strongest warrior, Jiren! After finally going into action, the mightiest man Jiren has seriously wounded Goku! Jiren next sets his sights on the strongest assassin, the Universe 6 warrior Hit!”

Fans already knew that Jiren would move on from his fight with Goku, but the new Dragon Ball Super synopsis stresses how badly the Saiyan gets injured. Not only that but the description also reveals why Jiren turns his sights to Hit. Some had hoped the Universe 6 fighter would step in between Jiren and Goku when the latter was knocked-out, but it seems Jiren goes after Hit on purpose.

With Goku out, Jiren appears to be on a warpath to take out the next strongest fighter in the Tournament of Power. Vegeta will surely be smarting after Jiren passes over him, but the Universe 11 leader sees Hit as his next biggest threat. Of course, Hit is anything but a pushover; The fighter’s array of time-bending attacks made Goku fall and even temporarily killed the Saiyan in a previous episode. Jiren will be out for Hit’s blood simply because the warrior is an obstacle in the way of Universe 11’s win, and Universe 6 will be left reeling if its MVP does get knocked out.
