Overview

The pale, ghost-white king of a Saiyan planet in another multiverse — one of those Poseidon says he created (ep 0165 00:29:48–00:31:28) — ruling from a throne like King Vegeta’s with the destroyer Cujo in his service and Raditz as his son (ep 0166 00:34:11–00:36:20; ep 0167 00:31:09–00:31:40). A “real-life god-killer” who conquered all 28 Gods of Destruction of his multiverse, he is recruited by Poseidon, trained harshly for decades and told that only Vegito’s death will reunite him with his family (ep 0168 00:22:47–00:22:59; ep 0179 00:01:20–00:08:42; ep 0183 00:10:49–00:11:19). He fights in the Tournament of Elders until Ardos beheads Poseidon’s whole team (ep 0207 00:08:21–00:08:49; ep 0208 00:38:18–00:38:44); Ultra Vegito absorbs his body and later raises him as a zombie (ep 0237 00:17:24–00:17:43).

As of his last appearance (ep 0237): dead, raised by Ultra Vegito as part of his “army of the dead” (ep 0237 00:17:24–00:17:43).
