Dragon Ball Super Echoes Super Saiyan's Debut With New Ultra Instinct Upgrade

The biggest new transformation added to the world of Dragon Ball Super has easily been Ultra Instinct, the god-like transformation that only Goku has been able to tape into, and in the latest chapter of the Shonen series' manga, it seems as if Son might be getting an upgrade with the power up! As the Z Fighters have been going to war with Moro, the immortal wizard, and his minions, the energy absorbing sorcerer has been able to steal energy from both his opponents and entire worlds, and though everything seems bleak, a light of hope has flashed across the world of Dragon Ball!

Warning! If you haven't caught up on the latest chapter of Dragon Ball Super's manga, you might want to steer clear of the rest of this article as we'll be diving into serious spoiler territory!

With the Z Fighters defeated in the previous chapter, a last minute save came in the form of the renegade angel known as Merus. The now Galactic Patrolman has decided to call upon his angelic powers in order to deal a big blow to Moro, at a steep cost. With Beerus and Whis looking on, they begin to realize that Merus calling upon his amazing powers has signed his own death warrant, as the warrior begins disappearing as a result of using his powers to help save the universe.

As Merus explains, angels using their powers to interfere in the events of the universe results in their deaths, and the renegade angel is able to disable Moro's copying abilities before dying. Recalling his past conversations with Goku during their time training with one another, Merus lets Son know that he must protect the universe moving on, and in his death, has seemingly awoken the Saiyan's ability to use the final form of Ultra Instinct.

The scene itself plays out much like Goku's first time becoming a Super Saiyan, witnessing Krillin's death at the hands of Freeza on the Planet Namek. With the power bubbling up to the surface, Goku doesn't go Ultra Instinct during this latest chapter, it's clear that he is about to hit a new plateau of power once again as he did previously in Dragon Ball Z!
