so as king vegeta the king of all the saiyans
King Vegeta is the king of the Saiyan race and the head of the royal family. In Dragon Ball Z, while he was facing Frieza on Namek, Vegeta remarked that, as a child he was already more powerful than his father, implying King Vegeta's power level is under 18,000.
Seen using the Great Ape transformation in flashbacks, King Vegeta's power level as a Great Ape would be over 100,000, but less than 180,000, since the transformation multiplies the base power level by ten. This means his Great Ape form is above the likes of Zarbon, Dodoria, and most of the Ginyu Force except for Captain Ginyu himself (who possessed a power level of 120,000).
Techniques and Special AbilitiesFlight – The ability to fly with the use of ki.
Ki Blast – The most basic form of energy wave.
Execution Beam – A purple beam of energy King Vegeta used on a Saiyan messenger after the said soldier told him that they have to wait for three days to invade planet Tazba for Frieza's organization due to how long it is going to take until the planet experiences its full moon. He also uses it on Paragus in Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan to silence him after he protested against Broly's execution.Orga Blaster – King Vegeta rushes toward the opponent and smacks them aside. He then takes the opponent by their head, knees them in the face, and punches them in the same place.

He used the finishing blast against an army of Frieza's soldiers whilst invading Frieza's ship to rescue his son, Vegeta.Explosive Wave – King Vegeta used it while on an unnamed planet with his elite. From what was seen of it, it was apparently powerful enough to not only destroy the planet he was on, but also the surrounding planets as well.

Forms and Transformations Great Ape
King Vegeta has the ability to transform into a Great Ape, as seen during a flashback in Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans, Dragon Ball GT, as well as in the video games Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and Dragon Ball Heroes. While transformed, he has mental control over the transformation.
Battles King Vegeta is usually drawn with brown hair, but in a flashback that prince Vegeta has while recovering from a training exercise gone awry in the pre-Androids Saga and in Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan, he is drawn with black hair. This is due to Vegeta stating in the manga that true Saiyan's hair is always black and does not grow. The animators did the same with Vegeta, first giving the character brown hair as opposed to black hair, but changing the color as episodes progressed Although numerous website summaries and the like state that he does, King Vegeta does not appear in Dragon Ball Z: Bardock - The Father of Goku. This is most likely due to confusion with flashbacks in the anime.In the "Dragon History" game mode of Budokai Tenkaichi 3, King Vegeta states "You will join your father in the next world" to Frieza. This means that King Cold and King Vegeta must have some sort of interaction at some point prior to his demise, this was shown in Dragon Ball Super: Broly.In Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit, Vegeta's second alternate outfit is almost identical to King Vegeta's outfits in color, only missing the family crest on the breastplate.In the remastered version of Broly: The Legendary Super Saiyan, King Vegeta's voice was slightly higher in pitch.
King Vegeta closely resembles his eldest son, Vegeta, though he is bearded, has brown hair, and is taller than his son. Being a part of Frieza's army, King Vegeta wears the typical Battle Armor with minor customizations, such as the red Vegeta Royal Family Crest on the left side of his armor. He also dons a blue and red cape, similar to the one Prince Vegeta wore as a child. King Vegeta sports a black undersuit and dark blue boots as well.
In Dragon Ball Super: Broly, King Vegeta appears with a slight change in his appearance and has a newer design. His face now shows marked cheekbones and his beard is trimmed at the top along with possessing long sideburns in the sides of his face. His hair color also seems to be a darker shade of brown but other artworks depict his hair color as black with a black to gray tone to his hair color. His attire is made up of a black armor with gold shoulder pads held for a red cape. Unlike the original design of King Vegeta, this design of King Vegeta doesn't possess the Saiyan Royal Family crest in the left chest plate of his armor. Underneath the red cape and armor he dons, he wears a dark blue tight suit, a gold necklace with a few blue crystals, a pair of black wrist guards, a pair of white Frieza Force boots, and a white skirt with a red stripe at the bottom with his tail wrapped around the skirt.
Personality
King Vegeta appears to be a bold, arrogant, boastful, yet level-headed and clever Saiyan, and a symbol of their pride. He is described by both King Kai and Dr. Lychee as having a brain equal to a Tuffle.[4] He was also a ruthless and merciless military commander who openly took enjoyment in the end of his opponents, traits he was more than happy to pass along to his son, personally bringing him along in at least one such battle. Although he is "king," he has come to terms with the fact that his people have no real freedom under Frieza, but he does not let this feeling on to his people. One important aspect of King Vegeta, in the Funimation dub (which is also implied in Vegeta's flashback God of Destruction Beerus Saga given Vegeta attacks Beerus to save his father indicating he did care for him on some level), is that he was the only person Vegeta truly loved in his childhood and for most of his life. When Frieza fatally wounded Vegeta, he explained to Goku that, apparently, the reason why he served Frieza was because Frieza threatened his father. He also demonstrated a slightly paranoid attitude, as shown in Dragon Ball Z: Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan when he learned that a newborn Saiyan was born with an abnormally high power level, he ordered for the baby's execution without delay, and cited that his becoming a great enough warrior to overthrow the royal family and a threat to the rest of the Saiyans are exactly the reasons why he wanted him executed, a view that ultimately was well founded when Broly grew up to be mentally and emotionally unstable, though it is possible that King Vegeta's ordering his execution may have contributed to Broly's mental instability as a result of the childhood trauma of being stabbed and sentenced to death along with Paragus.In Dragon Ball Super: Broly, King Vegeta showed a jealous side when he learned that Broly was born with potential far greater than his own son which led him to banish the young Saiyan to Planetoid Vampa. Although it would later be shown that his actions were justified due to Broly's massive power and uncontrollable nature which eventually lead him to rival even the God of Destruction Beerus and forced Goku and Vegeta to fuse into Gogeta to defeat him. Interestingly the King Vegeta in Broly is not as ruthless as his Broly - Legendary Super Saiyan counterpart as he choses banishment to a primitive planetoid called Vampa over execution and tries to convince Paragus that he sent the young Broly to conquer Vampa as an infiltration baby, but Paragus saw through his lie and King Vegeta explained he believed Broly was a dangerous mutant who's power could be a threat to Planet Vegeta and the Saiyan Army. However Paragus realized the truth that King Vegeta was jealous of Broly's power being greater than Prince Vegeta's. Additionally, King Vegeta did not stop Paragus when he fled from the castle and commandeered Beets' spaceship to rescue Broly from Vampa, though fortunately for King Vegeta, Paragus, Beets, and Broly became stranded on Vampa, though Paragus swore revenge on King Vegeta and trained Broly to serve as an instrument of revenge. In the end, King Vegeta's decision to banish Broly was wiser than execution, as the failed execution in Broly - Legendary Super Saiyan drove Broly insane causing him to become an evil Legendary Super Saiyan that enjoyed bloodshed and destruction threatening the lives of Vegeta and Future Trunks as well Trunks before he was killed by Goku, Gohan, and Goten, while the banished Broly in Broly retained his sanity and became a gentle hearted Saiyan who reluctantly became an instrument of revenge for his father and Frieza, though was returned to Vampa by Cheelai and Lemo using a wish to Shenron to save their friend Broly from being killed by Gogeta. After returning to his home on Vampa joined by Cheelai and Lemo, free of both his father's and Frieza's influence, Broly would befriend Goku after he approached and offered to train Broly to help him master his power providing him with supplies and capsules created by King Vegeta's daughter-in-law Bulma. Additionally shortly before his death, Paragus came to the realization that King Vegeta was right about the threat Broly's out of control power posed to the universe.
Like his son, King Vegeta is shown to be a proud Saiyan, though like Vegeta during the God of Destruction Beerus Saga, King Vegeta would swallow his pride when faced with foes more powerful than himself such as Frieza (though he would later attack Frieza once he realized the tyrant planned to destroy him and his people) and Beerus. However, he did make the mistake of giving Beerus the second most comfortable pillow on Planet Vegeta while keeping the first most comfortable for himself (a potentially costly mistake). Yet he willingly submitted to be punished by Beerus for his actions, which very likely prevented Beerus from destroying him and/or Planet Vegeta for his mistake (though as a result of the incident Beerus would later advise Frieza to destroy Planet Vegeta due in part to Beerus' perception of King Vegeta as stingy and his dislike of the evil actions of the Saiyan people which thrived under King Vegeta's rule). King Vegeta takes pride in his Saiyan heritage, a trait which he passed on to his eldest son along with his elitist views. In addition to his stinginess, he is well-known for being ruthless towards his subjects and subordinates at times to the point he is shown to literally "shoot the messenger" when he was frustrated by a message that the conquest Tazba was taking longer than expected causing him to kill the Saiyan messenger who reported it simply for informing him of the unexpected delay. In Dragon Ball Z: Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan, he has no problem ordering the execution of the infant Broly simply due to the potential possibility that he might one day grow powerful enough to oppose the royal family and refused to listen to Paragus' pleas to spare Broly showing no sympathy for the boy's father despite being a father himself, and blasted Paragus when he disagreed with the decision showing he does not tolerate disobedience, though presumably this is to maintain control over his people most of whom value strength and violence which likely requires him to be ruthless in order to maintain his position as their leader.
Though King Vegeta was known for his ruthlessness, King Vegeta genuinely cared for his son Vegeta and despite his shame and embarrassment over his youngest son Tarble's weakness, he chose to banish him rather than kill his youngest son, showing that even his ruthlessness had its limits.
Additionally, in Vegeta's flashback in "Z Warriors Prepare", King Vegeta reveals to Vegeta that weaker Saiyan children are sent off world to conquer weaker worlds as a way of putting them out of harms way and presumably to put them in an environment where they can grow stronger and gain experience, thus while he may be an elitist he is not completely heartless towards those of the lower classes and may even recognize that weaker Saiyans can grow stronger if put in the right environment to allow them to grow as demonstrated by Goku, whose life on Earth contributed greatly to his growth as a warrior to the point he could rival Prince Vegeta and eventually Frieza. However, in contrast he ensures that his eldest child remains on Planet Vegeta and believed Prince Vegeta's strong royal bloodline and strength (which is implied to have surpassed King Vegeta's own even as a child) may one day allow him to become a Super Saiyan, indicating he like Vegeta originally believes that only Saiyans born with high power levels like his eldest son and possibly Broly actually have the potential to become Super Saiyans. While Vegeta eventually did become a Super Saiyan, it was only after the form had been achieved by the gentle-hearted low class warrior Goku who's low class parents Bardock and Gine had sent to Earth on a unauthorized Attack Ball shortly before the Genocide of the Saiyans.
Biography In the anime only, King Vegeta became an important figure at the time when the Tuffles and the Saiyans lived together on Planet Plant. In Age 720, he alone was smart enough to rally and lead his people against the Tuffles in a conflict that raged for ten long years; this event was the Saiyan-Tuffle war. After the war's end in Age 730, the planet was renamed Planet Vegeta in his honor. In Dragon Ball: Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans, Dr. Lychee commented on King Vegeta's intelligence and cunning, which Lychee himself compared to be on the same level as a Tuffle, showing that his genius was known and recognized even by his Tuffle adversaries.At some point, King Vegeta discovered the Demon Realm planet, and used it as his secret training location.[5]Shortly after, Galactic Emperor Frieza came into contact with the Saiyans, and provided them with space-faring technology after submitting to his rule. Though reluctantly, King Vegeta pledged his allegiance to Frieza, knowing the Saiyans were not powerful enough to defeat him. The Saiyans worked under Frieza for several years. In Age 731, he is married to an unnamed female Saiyan who likely becomes his Queen and presumably the woman who eventually bore his sons. King Vegeta and his unnamed wife bore his first child in Age 732, Prince Vegeta. The young prince would later be given to Frieza under unknown circumstances, although King Vegeta intended to rebel before he would ever let Frieza gain his son. As revealed in Dragon Ball: The Return of Son Goku and Friends!, King Vegeta and his unknown queen had a second son named Tarble, who lacked the fighting spirit of a Saiyan, and thus was sent away from Planet Vegeta as an infant, as he considered Tarble's gentle nature to be an embarrassment to the royal family, though in doing so he saved his youngest son's life and prevented him from being taken by Frieza as the tyrant had previously done with his firstborn, Prince Vegeta."It's over, Frieza! We've come to put an end to your reign of terror!— King Vegeta and his elite challenge Frieza Prior to Frieza's attack on Planet Vegeta, King Vegeta realized that Frieza had no further use for the Saiyans and no longer needed them around. He decides to rebel against Frieza's oppression, as well as retrieve Prince Vegeta, and mounts an assault with his royal guard on Frieza's capital shipWhen he arrives in Frieza's chamber room, due to his elite guards being too fear-struck to attempt to aid him, King Vegeta ends up facing Frieza alone. Zarbon and Dodoria bear witness as Frieza dodges his punch with ease and effortlessly kills the Saiyan King with a single punch to the jaw. The Saiyan elites that followed are also killed by Frieza. Shortly thereafter, Frieza was confronted by a low class warrior named Bardock (the father of Kakarot, a Saiyan who would be the greatest rival to King Vegeta's eldest son) who had also become aware of Frieza's intentions after he had sent Team Dodoria to kill Team Bardock, which Bardock himself barely survived. Bardock too tries to kill Frieza with his Final Spirit Cannon before Frieza launches his final assault and destroys Planet Vegeta and the entire remaining population of the Saiyan race with a Supernova.Fortunately, both his and Bardock's sons (Kakarot and Raditz) survived the planet's destruction along with Saiyan General Nappa as they were off planet when Frieza attacked. Prince Vegeta, Nappa, and Raditz would continue to work under Frieza, who told them that Planet Vegeta had been destroyed by a meteor, though Prince Vegeta himself suspected Frieza was responsible, though he himself had no desire to avenge either his people or his father's death. Meanwhile, his son Tarble survived and eventually married Gure."I dreamt, I yearned to be the one to avenge us… yet he battered and broke me just as he did the others."— King Vegeta to Goku in a vision, alongside Vegeta and Bardock in "The Final Trump Card! Goku's Ultimate Spirit Bomb!"
King Vegeta is mentioned by Frieza (with the anime expanding it and showing a flashback of King Vegeta going to engage in a battle against Frieza), who says when he attacked planet Vegeta, where the Saiyans lived, he defeated the king, Vegeta's father, without even needing to transform. Hearing this, Vegeta reveals he was stronger than his father when he was just a kid. In a filler scene, Goku is battling Frieza on Namek and losing, King Vegeta appears before him in a vision along with Vegeta and Bardock, urging Goku not to give up and put an end to Frieza for the Saiyan race.
Though Goku managed to become a Super Saiyan shortly afterwards when Frieza killed his best friend Krillin, and eventually managed to defeat Frieza on Dying Namek, Frieza managed to survive both the battle and Namek's subsequent explosion (due in part to Goku showing mercy on the tyrant), though his body was heavily damaged, forcing Frieza's father, King Cold to repair Frieza's broken body with cybernetics, transforming him into Mecha Frieza. However both Frieza and his father met their end shortly thereafter at the hands of Super Saiyan Future Trunks, the half-breed son of Future Prince Vegeta who had traveled to the past using his mother's Time Machine to prevent Goku's death and warn him about the threat posed by Dr. Gero's Red Ribbon Androids, but ended up killing both Frieza and King Cold when he thought that Goku would not arrive in time to stop them, unaware of Goku's ability to use Instant Transmission, unintentionally altering the past and avenging both the Saiyans and the death of his grandfather in the process. Prince Vegeta would eventually fulfill the dream his father had for him by becoming a Super Saiyan. Vegeta would also continue the royal family by settling on Earth and marrying Bulma, by whom he fathered two half-breed children, Trunks and Bulla, King Vegeta's grandchildren. Additionally, both Prince Vegeta and his younger brother would later reunite on Earth with Tarble mistakenly believing it was his elder brother who defeated Frieza and avenged their parents' deaths. However, both Prince Vegeta and Tarble rejected the evil planet conquering ways of their father, though Prince Vegeta retained the fierce Saiyan pride his father instilled within him which he passed on to his own son Trunks, though without King Vegeta's elitist views.
At one point, King Vegeta met the God of Destruction Beerus and he is seen used as a stepping stone. In Dragon Ball Super, it was further explained to that King Vegeta was being mistreated because he gave Beerus the second most comfortable pillow in the universe and kept the first best for his own after Beerus had tasked him with finding the most comfortable pillow in Universe 7. Beerus admonishes King Vegeta on the extreme measures he used to obtain said pillow (destroying countless races in the process) though being a God of Destruction he would have been willing to have accepted King Vegeta's extreme methods had he handed over the pillow like he had promised him instead of keeping it for himself. However, King Vegeta willingly submitted to Beerus' punishment without protest sparing himself, his son, and his people from Beerus' wrath. However the encounter left Beerus with a poor opinion of both King Vegeta and the Saiyans, causing him to suggest to Frieza that he destroy them and Planet Vegeta (essentially giving Frieza his blessing to commit the Genocide of the Saiyans, which ultimately resulted in King Vegeta's death at the hands of Frieza and the destruction of Planet Vegeta).
While eating breakfast after a wake up from a thirty-nine-year long nap, Beerus asks his attendant Whis if Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta while he was asleep, and he says the Saiyans and Frieza were very evil and that King Vegeta was stingy. Whis confirms that he has, and not a trace of the planet remains. Beerus is glad to hear this, as he did not care much for the people on that planet, particularly King Vegeta. Years later, Prince Vegeta recalls the event he saw when he encounters Beerus on Earth, at Bulma's birthday party. During the flashback, Vegeta is shown standing up for his father and even attacks Beerus who paralyzes the boy with a simple glare, though Beerus recognized Prince Vegeta had attacked him out of youthful ignorance and respect for his father, which caused Beerus to recognize the boy's potential and along with King Vegeta submitting to punishment, lead Beerus to spare Planet Vegeta from immediate destruction.
King Vegeta is seen in a flashback in Dragon Ball GT when Baby is explaining the Saiyan-Tuffle War to Vegeta. During the flashback, he is also seen transforming into a Great Ape.
Although King Vegeta doesn't actually appear in the film, he was mentioned in the FUNimation dub during the prologue for the film, where Cooler cited that the Attack Pod containing Kakarot could have just as easily contained the Saiyan's king for all his brother Frieza knew when complaining about how Frieza was so blinded by his arrogant pride that he failed to notice a space pod escaping the doomed planet.
In Age 737, shortly before attempting to openly rebel against Frieza, King Vegeta orders newborn Broly to be executed due to his extremely high power level of 10,000, as this amount of power was seen as a possible threat to the royal Saiyan family. The father of Broly, Paragus, attempts to change King Vegeta's mind but was blasted with an Execution Beam and thrown into a dump along with his son.[6] It is this event and both Paragus and Broly narrowly surviving it that caused Paragus and to a lesser extent Broly to have a murderous vendetta against the royal family, settling on killing his son to avenge themselves due to King Vegeta having already been killed by Frieza.
King Vegeta makes a cameo appearance in Vegeta's flashback of Beerus' visit to Planet Vegeta. In the flashback, he is shown kneeling with Beerus' foot on his head while the God of Destruction is enjoying a meal that King Vegeta had prepared in an attempt to appease the God of Destruction, while his son Vegeta watches silently nearby.
When King Cold decided to retire and place his son in charge, he goes to planet Vegeta with his whole army to announce it. Although reluctant, King Vegeta leaves his throne to greet King Cold. He is introduced by the latter to Frieza and kneels before him. Later, King Vegeta proceeds to see his son in his still in the incubator. King Vegeta is astonished by his power level and vows that his son will be the one to defeat Frieza, as well as eagerly waiting to see his son becoming the king of the Saiyans. As he leaves, King Vegeta notices a baby and angrily wonders what he was doing there. The scientists inform that that baby is the son of Paragus, Broly, and that his power level is abnormally high. King Vegeta then decides to send Broly off to another planet called Vampa. Paragus learns this and goes to meet King Vegeta. King Vegeta explains his reasons but Paragus does not accept it.
During the Destron Gas incident in West City caused by a device releasing it over Earth which weakened many Earthlings as a result of Dr. Lychee building it for vengeful purposes, King Vegeta makes a brief cameo in a flashback when Vegeta explains to the Z-Fighters investigating the Destron Gas that the gas was likely made by surviving Tuffles as they are the only ones capable of making a device and gas such as the Destron Gas along with explaining their possible intention to use this gas to kill off the remaining Saiyans on Earth in revenge against the Saiyan-Tuffle war conflict that occurred many years ago.King Vegeta is the king of the Saiyan race and the head of the royal family. In Dragon Ball Z, while he was facing Frieza on Namek, Vegeta remarked that, as a child he was already more powerful than his father, implying King Vegeta's power level is under 18,000 (Vegeta's level when he first arrived on Earth).In the Funimation dub of Dragon Ball Z: Bardock - The Father of Goku, the doctors working on Bardock after his injury sustained on Planet Kanassa state that Bardock's power level was nearing 10,000 and is expected to pass up King Vegeta in due time, implying King Vegeta's power level to be greater than that.
Seen using the Great Ape transformation in flashbacks, King Vegeta's power level as a Great Ape would be over 100,000, but less than 180,000, since the transformation multiplies the base power level by ten. This means his Great Ape form is above the likes of Zarbon, Dodoria, and most of the Ginyu Force with the possible exception of Captain Ginyu himself (who possessed a power level of 120,000).
Frieza tells Vegeta that he easily killed his father without needing to transform.Statements by authors and guidebooks Daizenshuu 7 states that King Vegeta was the strongest Saiyan at the time of the Genocide of the Saiyans with a power level of 25,000. In an interview, the author Akira Toriyama says that while almost all Saiyans were low-class and that there were about 10 mid-class, the elite-class were made up of only King Vegeta and his son Vegeta.[7]The Dragon Ball GT Perfect Files state that King Vegeta was a brilliant battle strategist, even among Saiyans.
