As it seemed Goku is beyond Piccolo's ability to heal, his heart is jump started when the energy attack he launched early in midair hits him. After telling his sons and Piccolo not to get involve, having deduced Hit's assassination technique to be an invisible energy blast, Goku leaves and calls Hit out as they resume their fight. Nearby, Champa and Vados are watching fight with the latter revealed to have served as an intermediary for Hit's client while explaining to Champa that the assassin uses the stored time from his Time Skips to create a pocket dimension which plays in his tangibility. They are later joined by Vegeta, Beerus, and Whis as Goku uses his power to damage Hit's pocket dimension with his a Kamehameha causing a double knockout. In the aftermath, Goku reveals himself as Hit's client with Whis and Vados helping set everything up so he can fight the assassin at his best. Hit takes his leave soon after, intent to fight Goku another time as the job has no deadline.

Dragon Ball Super, a brand new television anime inspired by Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball manga, will premiere on Fuji TV and other channels in July on Sundays at 9:00 a.m. This will be the first new Dragon Ball television series since Dragon Ball GT, which aired from 1996 to 1997. The story of the anime is set a few years after the defeat of Majin Buu, when the Earth has become peaceful once again. The voice of Goku, Gohan, and Goten, Masako Nozawa commented on the new anime, saying, "We've always used the word 'chō' (Super) with Dragon Ball in commercials, games and the like, but the fact that the series titled Dragon Ball Super is beginning is the best thing ever."
