Dragon Ball Super: Vegeta’s Genius Powerup Foiled by Moro’s Twist

In Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Super, the pace is fast, constantly shifting from one villain to another, and from one power-up to another. Yet, occasionally, the antagonist compels one of the Z-Fighters to invent or employ a fresh ability that grabs attention. Typically, these power-ups in Dragon Ball Super involve more hair and quicker punches. However, Vegeta, with his strategic intellect, took an alternative approach during the Moro Arc in the Dragon Ball Super manga. Instead of adopting a new form, he showcased a novel technique against the main villain. He came very close to defeating the villain until, surprisingly, he was bested by a hidden power that Moro had concealed.

In simpler terms, Dragon Ball Super isn’t famous for its intricate power system or innovative storytelling, but it remains engaging due to the way characters triumph through breaking their limits and hard work. Throughout most of Dragon Ball Super, Vegeta has been playing catch-up with Goku, constantly trying to match the power-ups that Goku acquires in each new storyline. In this arc, we saw the setup for Goku’s expected power-ups through a new mentor, leaving Vegeta on his own. Determined as ever, Vegeta identified a vulnerability in the new villain and prepared to confront him. However, much like previous arcs, Vegeta was relegated to the sidelines so another Saiyan could unveil a fresh, eye-catching transformation.

Spirit Fission and Why It’s So Strong

Following their initial encounter with Moro on New Namek, it becomes evident to Goku and Vegeta that this foe will be tougher to vanquish than initially thought. Moro showcases his ability to absorb energy, drawing power from both Saiyans, significantly enhancing his abilities. After this sudden power surge, Moro collects all the Dragon Balls on New Namek, and upon making a wish, regains his strength. In their subsequent confrontation, Moro absorbs all life energy on Planet Namek, rendering himself invincible at that time. Throughout the battle, Vegeta strives to protect as many Namekians as possible while defending them, but during their retreat, Vegeta pledges to vanquish the villain.

Vegeta’s determination to overcome Moro in their upcoming encounter is deeply rooted in his previous training sessions. Instead of pursuing a power-up like Goku’s Ultra Instinct, he’s on a quest to find an alternative strategy to counter Moro’s magical prowess. While Goku concentrates on perfecting his Ultra Instinct, Vegeta travels to planet Yardrat to intensely focus on enhancing his Ki-based skills to effectively fight Moro’s Ki absorption. During his training, we observe Vegeta employ an advanced technique known as Forced Spirit Fission, a powerful manifestation of Spirit Control that significantly alters the course of the battle once it comes into contact with Moro.

The Battle and Its Conclusion

Previously mentioned, upon Vegeta’s entry onto the battlefield for their rematch, he swiftly shifts the momentum against Moro. Unlike acquiring a new form or sudden enhancement, Vegeta found an effective counter and executed it promptly. The technique Forced Spirit Fission allows Vegeta to honor his promise and initiate salvation for those Moro had condemned. In this storyline, Vegeta’s actions demonstrate heroism and atonement, as each blow he strikes forces out the trapped souls and energy from Moro and returns this energy to the cosmos. The battle swiftly turns in favor of Vegeta, even causing the arrogant Moro to acknowledge his disadvantage as he loses power with every strike from Vegeta. The other Z-Fighters are taken aback when they witness the villain who overpowered Goku start to retreat from Vegeta.

In contrast, Moro’s escape marks the shift in Vegeta’s triumphant moment towards defeat. Although Vegeta rescued countless beings from the villain’s grasp, his success is short-lived due to Moro’s recovery of power. After draining his energy from absorbed souls, Moro escapes to allies and consumes Android Seven-Three, regaining full strength without needing any more souls. This sudden surge in power undermines Vegeta, setting the stage for a confrontation with both Moro and Goku, introducing a new form. In the world of Dragon Ball Super, characters seldom employ strategic Ki usage, and when one does, as Vegeta did, the payoff is almost within reach, only to remind us that he will never achieve ultimate victory but will always play second fiddle. Even minor victories like in Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero can’t fully compensate for this reality, regrettably.
