So, how do you guys think Moro will be defeated?

Post by Psajdak » Sat Oct 24, 2020 5:28 am

We are nearing (or at least it seems so) the big finale of Moro saga; as of latest chapter 65 of DBS manga, Moro fused with Earth, and how that will be solved is anyone's guess.

I already said in another thread that I believe that most likely Vegetto will return, and fight Moro's normal body, or avatar, if you will, in the same manner that Metal Coola was being fought DBZ Movie 6, with Earth functioning similarly to Big Gete Star.
Not sure how will Goku, and Vegeta get the new Potara, though, but I don't think it would be too hard for Shin to just appear out of nowhere...
And for what is worth, I could see Goku having them with himself the whole time, for whatever reason.

Another possibility is that, well, Goku will just have to destroy the Earth together with Moro, but not before getting every living being somewhere safe, maybe some random planet in U7, or maybe even to the U6 Earth, which could result in start of long expected U6 Sadala arc.
Plus Champa does kind of owe U7; I don't know, though, if in manga version Beerus wished for the U6 Earth to be restored, since I myself only got into it with the end of ToP, and only read a few of earlier chapters, such as Vegetto vs Gattai Zamasu.

I mean, we do know with EoZ that Earth will in the end be fine.
But then again, is that really the U7 Earth?

Maybe Beerus will destroy the planet and they'll have to travel the universe and the multiverse looking for the Super Dragon Balls.

Unfortunately we were told not but a few chapters back that Vegeta's new technique also allows him to un-fuse merged bodies (for example, he says, he could separate Piccolo back up into the original Piccolo, God and Nail). It's all but a foregone conclusion this technique will allow the heroes to separate Moro from the Earth, though that doesn't mean there can't be interesting hurdles to be placed in the way of their doing so.

(Said hurdles would probably, for cliffhangers' sake, been better introduced prior to the end of the most recent chapter, but they could come up this next month and still make for an exciting ending in collected format.)

It would be very strange for this to happen, as the arc has put work into establishing why fusion won't be on the table - and, as you say, Shin would have to just pop in out of nowhere, when he hasn't been involved in this arc on any level.

I've said elsewhere that I don't think we'll be seeing Vegetto ever again in the main story, as the Future Trunks arc basically established that they're too powerful for it to really work, now. And for now, I'm sticking to that.

These suggestions basically just seem like searching for a reason why it wouldn't be a basic Goku-Vegeta teamwork victory, with Vegeta splitting off Moro from the planet, and possibly also from OG73-I, and Moro being swiftly defeated thereafter.

Why wouldn't it be this?

I haven't forgotten about that new tehnique of Vegeta's, and I do have something to say about it, which I really mean, but it will only sound like I'm trolling, so, forget it...

I will only mention that in comparison to Goku's iconic teleportation, it is an extremely dissapointing power.

The way it was hyped, I expected Vegeta to slice the multiverse in tiny pieces, or have the absolute control over space-time, and history, to make Daishinkan seem like Yamcha in comparison to SSB Gogeta, and then it ended just being, well, that... :|

I think Vegeta will split up Moro while Goku kills him. I guess Vegeta could kill Moro while Goku kills 7-3 if he splits them up even further.

You still think Moro will be defeated? I'm already prepared for Dragon Ball Moro in 2021

It almost seems too obvious that this is the way it's going, but in this case I think it actually will be as straight-forward as that. I do hope it won't be instant, though. I particularly love the idea of Earth-Moro somehow using UI to dodge Vegeta's attempts at using his technique, as in the entire planet dodges out of the way somehow like we're reading a chapter of Dr. Slump or something. We probably won't see something as silly as that, though.

I think it's obvious Vegeta will use his new technique to separate Moro from the Earth, and I'm hoping he also separates him from Merus and 73 and finishes him off.

It's possible the body-density shifting Ultra Instinct showed off this chapter could allow the Earth to automatically harden up and block any attempts by Vegeta to land his technique unless he can hit Moro in a vulnerable spot dead on, which could mean some antics trying to distract him/land a blow. There's also Moro's magma-like weaponizing of planetary energy, which could now be applied to his own Earth-body itself as a way of blocking Vegeta.

There are definitely things that could be done with it to avoid an easy win for Vegeta! Hoping to see something along those lines, but we won't know until next month.

Since this arc has already taken much inspiration from the Cell saga, Moro may simply blow himself up when a Goku & Vegeta combo messes up his plans...and then he'll regenerate from the explosion along with a Zenkai as a side-effect of copying Vegeta's abilities. :roll: Afterwards, Goku presses the Zeno button or Merus suddenly reappears with Daishinkan in tow and then they all finally take care of Moro for good.

I think the question is HOW rather than WHAT.

Spirt Fission thingy was set up for something like this, so Vegeta should play a big part next month. I'm assuming Moro will "lose" Earth and 7-3, thus becoming "killable" for non-Goku entities. I don't know if UI Goku would kill goat Moro or old Moro (if Geets goes the whole 10-yards with his technique), Vegeta would definitely go for it.
Maybe Beerus will jump in and hakai Moro seeing Goku cannot be trusted.

I think they will use a sealing spell to defeat him instead of killing him off. It would make things more fresh than having Goku killing the bad guy like we have seen before a million times already (As seen in DB, DBZ Movies, and GT).

Vegeta doesn't even need to split Moro from the planet first. Don't forget, the weakness to Vegeta's spirit fission is that he has to be able to make contact. Moro dodged all Vegeta's attacks instead of arrogantly tanking them like before but now that the entire planet IS Moro, Vegeta can just stomp the floor knock out all the stolen energy @_@

Vegeta separates the energy from Moro, possibly absorbs Merus power.

Vegeta gets the kill.

Next arc.

Vegeta more than likely will have some crucial role to play.
However ... Him coming back and just beating Moro after splitting him from the earth, may be just a little too straightforwarded.
It's exactly what we would expect, or what they may lead us to to believe what will happen.

A final unexpected turn would be welcome.
For instance ...

Let Vegeta do his Forced Spirit Fission-thing to split Moro and 7-3 from the earth.
Just before Vegeta is about to nuke them both for good, Moro and 7-3 turn into chocolat.
Good old Buu, awakened by the events of Moro becoming one with the earth, has stept in and transformed them both into chocolat, and eats them.
In that way it's full circle: the Grand Supreme Kai gets the finishing touch in defeating his old enemy, which leaves Vegeta frustrated he didn't quite succeed in completely finishing off Moro and 7-3 himself. The arc ends with Goku making a joke about it and Jaco barely being able to hold his laugh.

Ironic note: at the end Moro is defeated by magic and gets eaten himself.
He gets a taste of his own medicine.

I would absolutely die laughing if it went the Looney Tunes route.

Buu wakes up, goes to space, turns Earth into a cookie and eat it.

Or Vegeta's new hyped technique comes into play as it should.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.
