Goku and Android 17 will confront the Galactic Poachers from the spaceship in episode 87 of "Dragon Ball Super."

Goku has been looking for fighters who will form part of his team in the upcoming tournament. In episode 86 of the anime, Goku and Android 17 exchanged fists in order for the Saiyan to gauge if Android 17's power is enough for the Tournament of Power. However, they were interrupted when a huge spaceship appeared.

Goku and Android 17 will learn more about the said spaceship in the next episode of "Dragon Ball Super," titled "Hunt the Poachers! Goku and 17 Unites!" The translated synopsis indicated in ComicBook reveals, "When Goku asks 17 to join the tournament, he turns his offer down. The two then sense something approaching and see a spaceship in the dark sky."

Spoilers reveal that the creatures in the spaceship are galactic poachers. These are people from another planet who are hoping to capture wild and exotic animals by force. Since Android 17 is working as a park ranger, he will not allow these strangers to do what they want. However, the galactic poachers are also strong. With this, Goku will help Android 17 fight and bring them down.

Meanwhile, spoilers for episodes 88 and 89 of "Dragon Ball Super" are also revealed.

Episode 88 will see Gohan train with Piccolo since he needs to level up his strength in order to be more competitive in the Tournament of Power. Even though Gohan is already stronger than his master, Piccolo may still have a few more tricks that he can impart to his apprentice. The episode is titled "Gohan and Piccolo: Master and the Disciple's Intense Training to the Limit!"

Meanwhile, episode 89 will feature a new beautiful character, named Yurin. At the moment, it is still uncertain whether she is a friend or foe to Goku's camp. The episode is called "A Mysterious Beauty Appears! Mystery of the Tenshin-Style Dojo?"

Catch episode 87 on Sunday, April 23, at 10:30 a.m. Japan time on Fuji TV, and episodes 88 and 89 on April 30 and May 7, respectively.
