Summary
Dragon Ballhas shown a majority of techniques with lots of different applications, and most of them are used by the Z-Fighters and adapted by Goku. However, out of the new allies, Vegeta’s abilities are mostly always focused on ki blasts anddestroying the enemy with raw force. This worked for the longest time, until the Moro Arc gave Vegeta a huge wall to overcome, and one he could only overcome without forcing through it. The idea of Vegeta learning a technique to overcome a weakness and exploit another enemy’s weakness as well. The Forced Spirit Fission was Vegeta’s answer to Moro’s threat toDragon Ball.
The only question that remains to be answered is where the technique was learned, what led Vegeta to learn this technique and how it works in the story, as well as its possible uses in the future outside the Moro Arc.
The Origins Of Forced Spirit Fission
Vegeta’s First Official Training
When Vegeta and Goku were defeated by Moro the first time, they both dedicated themselves to different forms of training so that they would be better prepared to combat Moro. Vegeta opted foran odd but welcome change of training,going to Planet Yardrat to learn from their people the basics of Spirit Control. The idea of using techniques with Ki Control is what Spirit Control is based on, and that is how Goku learned Instant Transmission; Vegeta decided to learn from the Yardrat Elder, Pybara, who also taught Goku Instant Transmission. This leads to Vegeta learning Forced Spirit Fission and Spirit control, allowing the Saiyan prince to enhance his abilities and especially use more applications of Ki Control.
Forced Spirit Fission is an advanced technique, one that can be considered the antithesis of the Spirit Bomb by nature. The Forced Spirit Fission is used to separate and pull energy from the opponent, possibly even separating the souls, energy, and even able to undo absorption and Fusion. While its main purpose is to separate, theenergy can also be manipulated as normaland even added and given to another individual to recover their strength, or indirectly recover people from the dead.
The ability itself was useful for Vegeta, as it allowed the Saiyan Prince to fight Moro in the same way Moro defeated them the first time; Vegeta was able to separate the energy that Moro had gathered during the previous fights and put it to good use by revitalizing Goku with theenergy he needed to deal the final blow.With this new information, one might be allowed to think that Forced Spirit Fission will be given much more use in the future. Thanks to Vegeta’s usage and learning of not just Forced Spirit Fission but Instant Transmission, Vegeta has a new tool at his disposal. However, why don’t we see this technique used more often?
Will There Be More Use From Vegeta?
The Benefits of Forced Spirit Fission
Dragon Ballhas never been shy about introducing techniques that are useful, not using them too often before giving them a new purpose and utility in the future. The Forced Spirit Fission is unlikely to be used in the future of the manga, but there might be a reason as to why it hasn’t been used since the Moro Arc. The technique separates energy that has been gathered from the enemy, and can beused like the Spirit Bomb to gather energyand give it to someone who needs it. However, there aren’t many enemies that have external energy stored that isn’t simply their own ki. Moro was an exception, as his magic used the principle of absorbing ki and energy to make himself stronger, which led to Vegeta learning the technique in the first place.
Even without much need to use it as of late, there might not be a reason to abandon the technique at all. With Vegeta’s new Ultra Ego transformation and training to use Destruction Energy from Beerus, the Spirit Control technique may have more uses in the future thanks to Vegeta’sbetter understanding of Destruction Energyas well as just embracing his true nature and understanding of what he truly finds valuable in a fight. Generally,Dragon Balldoesn’t introduce techniques only to leave them in the dust, so there might be more reason to believe that Vegeta is still going to use Forced Spirit Fission more and more in the future.
