 Warning: This contains spoilers for chapter 80 of Dragon Ball Super! 

A new issue of Dragon Ball Super is eventually settling the classic Goku versus Naruto debate in an intriguing way. These two elephants of manga are both ridiculously important and ridiculously popular, naturally leading suckers to wonder which of them would win in a fight. While it's not surprising that Dragon Ball Super would essay to settle the debate, what's surprising is the conclusion it seems to reach. 

 

Dragon Ball's effect manga series has been riveting on the plight of a important fighter named Granolah the Survivor for some time now. When he was a child his people, the Cerealians, were canceled by the Saiyans under Frieza's order. This gave Granolah a burning abomination of the Saiyans, which leads him to seek out Goku and Vegeta to exact vengeance. Together with the deceptive Heeter Gang, Granolah finds his earth's two Dragon Balls and uses them to come the macrocosm's strongest fighter. It does not take long for Granolah to beat both Goku and Vegeta. After Granolah realizes that Goku's father saved him as a child however, the Heeters use the Dragon Balls to make their own member Gas stronger than Granolah. Knowing the Heeters have manipulated him, Granolah wastes no time in battling Gas.

Now, in chapter 80 of Dragon Ball Super from Akira Toriyama and Toyotarou, Granolah and Gas continue their grand brawl. One intriguing thing about the fight is that both of theseultra-powerful fighters display further than a many powers straight out of Naruto. Gas'main tactic in battle seems to be conjuring munitions out of nothing. Of note, Gas' capability to summon endless inventories of kunai and shuriken from nowhere is evocative of Naruto's Sasuke and Itachi. On the other hand, Granolah's unforeseen capability to make duplicates feels like a reference to Naruto's hand Shadow Clone Jutsu. He indeed uses it to overwhelm and distract his opponent, much like Naruto. 

Collectively these two might not feel like a purposeful shoutout but when put together they do feel like a deliberate reference. It's only natural to see this as a definitive answer to the Goku versus Naruto debate. The thing is however, that Granolah has formerly beat Goku and Gas is indeed stronger than Granolah. As surprising as it seems, Dragon Ball Super appears to suggest that Goku would actually lose to the Seventh Hokage. While this is logical in- macrocosm because Granolah is objectively his macrocosm's alternate strongest legionnaire, it also makes sense for a real Goku versus Naruto battle. Naruto's access to jutsu and chakra give him a more different powerset than his Saiyan competition. Goku's energy blasts and martial chops are clearly important, but so are Naruto's, and he also has access to visions, summoning, and ninjutsu. 

 

Despite these rates however, it's important to note that Dragon Ball Super's Granolah bow is not over relatively yet. Dragon Ball is ignominious for contriving reasons for Goku to face off against an bow's big master. That might veritably well be the case then, as a flashback hints that Goku's father Bardock plant a way to beat Gas, leaving room for Goku to overcome this new foe. Either way, suckers of both Goku and Naruto will really still debate who would win anyhow of what Dragon Ball Super suggests.
