A prolific Dragon Ball artist imagines just where Future Trunks got his legendary sword.

The origin of Future Trunks' sword in the Dragon Ball universe has always been up to debate. Arriving with the legendary weapon in tow when he first appeared in Dragon Ball Z, Vegeta's son used the sword to cut Frieza and half cement himself as one of the most popular members of the Z-Fighters. One prolific fan artist in Japan has offered their take on just where Trunks got the sword and who it was that gave the Z-Fighter the classic weapon.

Shonen fans know that there was a Dragon Ball Z project that tried to give an origin story to Trunks' sword. The thirteenth film of the franchise, Dragon Ball Z: Wrath of The Dragon, introduced a new hero and villain to the shonen series. Hirudegarn wasn't quite like any other Dragon Ball villain, appearing far more as a kaiju rather than an antagonist like Frieza or Cell.

Did Gohan Give Trunks The Sword?In the alternate future, Trunks was taught nearly everything he knew by Gohan, who was able to survive the assault on the Earth from Androids 17 and 18. Gohan's death helped light the spark that let the Future Trunks become a Super Saiyan for the first time. While it was never confirmed that Gohan gave Trunks his sword, it makes sense that Goku's son might have been responsible.
