Warning! Spoilers for Dragon Ball Super Episode 118 and 119 below!

One of the biggest mysterious of the Dragon Ball Super's Tournament of Power is why Universe 4 seemed to be missing two fighters, it seems fans will be getting an answer to that problem sooner rather than later.

According to the synopsis for Episode 119, Universe 4 is about to shake up the Tournament of Power in a major way:

The episode titled, "A New Victim from Universe 7! Universe 4 Gets Serious!," already has an ominous aura, but the synopsis goes even further into this reading, "An invisible enemy! Universe 4's surprise attack...With the annihilation of Universe 6, the Tournament of Power has entered its final stage! Universe 4 begins a surprise attack against Universe 7! How will Goku and co. face this invisible enemy?"

This synopsis confirms some major events teased in Episode 118, such as the elimination of Universe 6 from the tournament. While it does not confirm whether or not Universe 2 is also defeated, with all of the teases of a double elimination, it is possible that this major shift in competition also spurs Universe 4 to make its move.

The synopsis also reveals the two missing fighters for Universe 4 are indeed invisible, and lead to the elimination of someone from Universe 7. But the question on every fans' minds is who exactly will be defeated? It could be anyone from Android 18, who has sustained a number of injuries through the Tournament, Goku who has been drained of stamina (though fans would most likely be displeased at this outcome), or perhaps it could be one of the stronger members of Universe 7?

The implication that Universe 4's attack would take by surprise also could mean that even the stronger characters like Gohan, Piccolo, Freeza, Android 17, and Vegeta are also in danger. Signs point toward Piccolo taking more damage, but that could be as a result of something else as well.

Either way, the Tournament of Power is definitely going to be a treat for fans as it heads toward the end game.
