The update was spotted on the official Dragon Ball website ahead of its draft release. A single shot of chapter 88 can be found, and as you can read below, the page previewed details new info about Goku and Vegeta after leaving Planet Cereal.

What’s Next for Dragon Ball?

As you can see, the page focuses on Goku and Vegeta as the pair continue their grueling training with Beerus far away from Earth. At one point, Goku and the God of Destruction are shown eating while Whis sits to the side. In another panel, Vegeta is seen thinking about Black Frieza, and the Saiyan seems quietly irate. There is no doubt the villain’s return has brought up some bad memories for Vegeta, and Black Frieza’s strength has fueled both our heroes to power up.

However, this new Dragon Ball arc will not be about them. The story will focus on their kids instead. Goten and Trunks will head up this new arc as they take up superhero egos much like Gohan did with Great Saiyaman. This big arc is meant to showcase Earth’s drama and help tie the manga to Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero more easily. So if you have been wanting to see other Saiyans than Goku and Vegeta, your time is almost here!
