Reasoning behind the 'Hit'

[LongLostSaiyan]

This recently clicked into my mind and I figured it made at least some sense. What If.. this unkown person got Hit to try and assassinate Goku because of the upcoming Universal tournament? Think about it, maybe this deity from another universe is going to enter his or her fighter in the tournament and wants Goku out of the way in order to have the maximum chance of winning, assuming this deity has access to Godtube he or she could of watched Goku's fight with Hit and decided that he is too dangerous and a threat.

This could put Champa or Vados behind the 'assassination order' because he knows Goku rivals Hit and doesn't want to lose again, the only thing is... if it was Champa he would be trying to assassinate Monaka instead because he saw him beat Hit... so it leads me to believe it could be someone completely new, maybe the Omni King will give out a reward to the winning Universe and that particular God wants that reward.

[...]so it leads me to believe it could be someone completely new, maybe the Omni King will give out a reward to the winning Universe and that particular God wants that reward.

It could definitely be someone new since Godtube is now a thing, making it likely another God would want Goku dead.

Isn't Hit the bigger threat in the tournament and not Goku.

Well that is true
But maybe there is a technique around tokitobashi, which whis obviously knew, but there is no technique against goku..
So goku could be the bigger threat

[Doctor.]

Goku put the hit out on himself so he could have a rematch with Hit with no rules.

[Mazingerdestro]

99.9% was Frost.

[DragonBallFoodie]

To be reasonable, a lot of people would put out a hit on Goku: Champa, Frost, Frieza's army...

This one takes the cake

[Xeztin]

Doesn't Champa participate in that baseball game the episode before? It's probably just Champa being a soar looser.

[Lord Beerus]

Tao Pai Pai couldn't get the job done and so he travelled to another universe to enlist the aid of another person of his profession to finish what he started.

Freeza's soldiers (if there ar any left) probably aren't even aware of the existence of parallel universes, much less able to contact them. It'd have to be someone from Universe 6 or another high god.

Hit needs some way of getting to Universe 7 as well.

[fadeddreams5]

This is hilariously plausible.

Wouldn't make sense for Hit though. He kills Goku, his client also dies, meaning he gets no reward. Also, the arc would be over. Not much story to be told here.

[Akyon]

Goku put the hit out on himself so he could have a rematch with Hit with no rules.

I actually think this could be it.

Aside from that, my only 'out there' guess is Botamo.

Frost lost to Vegeta, not Goku. Champa lost the tournament to Monaka technically, not Goku.
The only one Goku truly beat from Universe 6 was Botamo. With such an incredible ability as Pooh Bear's, he's probably been very confident in his abilities. If everyone saw him lose in such a pathetic manner, he could be humiliated.

Who gives a crap as long as Goku dies.

Couple thoughts on this as I see it.

First Hit now respects Goku some and enjoyed their fight.
Second Hit is already the most powerful Fighter except for the Gods in that Universe so he isn't some ordinary person for hire.
- Meaning 1 He won't take money for it the job
- 2. He would have to be paid in something extremely rare or exotic like how the Gods got him to join the Tournament in the first place
- 3. The person who hires him is most likely close to him in Power or Stronger.

So for me it can't be someone like Frost. First off Hit would just laugh and say NO. Champa isn't exactly on Hit's good side remember he was going to kill him. So my thought is it is someone from another Universe that made Hit and offer
He can't refuse. So Hit has to Kill Goku. This is the only way it seems to make sense to me.

As I wrote elsewhere, Hit needed a cube to travel to other universes.
Champa could hire Hit to grant again the cube, and have Goku miss the upcoming tournament.
