Zeno’s Biggest Vulnerability: The Inherent Flaw in Dragon Ball’s Most Powerful Being

The introduction of Dragon Ball Super’s most powerful entity left fans in shock. Omni-King Zeno holds the title of supreme ruler over the entire Multiverse. Despite the existence of 18 Universes, Zeno has destroyed 6 of them at some point. Both the Gods of Destruction and the Angelic Grand Priest deeply fear him, as he shares their company as one of the most formidable beings in the series.

Despite his immense powers and abilities, Zeno instills fear in those beneath him. However, this also prompts one to consider, what are the Omni-King’s weaknesses? Upon closer examination, it becomes apparent that the story itself reveals Zeno’s vulnerabilities and potential strategies for defeating him.

Please note that this article is based on speculation.

Starting off, it is evident that Zeno is not a God who excels in combat. This was made apparent during the Tournament of Power when he struggled to keep up with the various battles taking place. An example of this can be seen with Dyspo’s incredible speed, which required Zeno to rely on the GodPad in order to follow.

Although he has impressive abilities, he has never been seen in a real battle. This suggests that a skilled fighter may be able to get close to Zeno and harm him. It is possible that he lacks hand-to-hand combat skills and could be vulnerable in such a situation.

On the other hand, it could be argued that Zeno’s greatest strength lies in his immeasurable durability. This could be his most dominant attribute, which is precisely why no one dares to challenge him. With infinite durability, any attempt to harm him would be futile, making it nearly impossible to defeat him.

Additionally, Zeno is essentially a young child. Although it has not been explicitly stated, it is strongly implied that the Grand Priest takes care of him. The Angel is always by the side of the Omni-King, explaining and conveying information to him. Therefore, Zeno appears to have the thought process and understanding of a child, making him susceptible to influence and manipulation.

Goku’s ability to unknowingly manipulate Zeno was evident when he convinced him to host the Tournament of Power. Despite being an all-powerful being, Zeno developed a fondness for Goku and the two formed a strong friendship. It is understandable that Zeno, with his intimidating powers, likely experienced loneliness as no one dared to approach or befriend him.

However, Goku’s fearless nature allowed him to approach Zeno just like any other person would. This could also explain why Zeno took a liking to the Saiyan. It’s possible that the Grand Priest and his Angels are protected from Zeno’s destructive powers because the Grand Priest has successfully established a positive relationship with Zeno, earning them special treatment.
