King Vegeta(ベジータ王), more specifically Vegeta III(ベジータ三世 ), is the king of all Saiyans. He is the son of King Vegeta II, the husband of Queen Eschalot and the father of Vegeta IV and Tarble. After his people were annexed by King Cold's Cold Army he had no choice but to pledge allegiance, but still kept power over his people, this continued into the Saiyans time under Frieza's Frieza Force, until the tyrant slaughtered them.
Appearance[]
King Vegeta closely resembles his eldest son, Vegeta, though he is bearded, and is taller than his sons. Being a part of Frieza's army, King Vegeta wears the typical Battle Armor with minor customization, such as a Gold and Green necklace. He also dons a red cape, White Sash robe around his waist and a blue under suit under his armor, Black Battle Armor Wrist Bands and dark White and yellow battle armor boots as well.
Personality[]
King Vegeta appears to be a stoic, level-headed and clever man, and a symbol of Saiyan pride. He is described by both King Kai and Dr. Lychee as having a brain equal to a Tuffle. 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. Like his son, King Vegeta is shown to be a proud Saiyan, though King Vegeta would swallow his pride when faced with foes more powerful than himself such as God of Destruction Beerus, King Cold and Frieza.
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 Planet Vampa. Although it would later be shown that his actions were justified due to Broly's massive power and uncontrollable nature.
Background[]
Vegeta III was born to his parents on Sadala and became the Prince of Saiyans.

King Vegeta during the Saiyan - Tuffle War
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.
King Vegeta and the Saiyan Army in Age 732.
After the war's end in Age 730, the planet was renamed Planet Vegeta in his honor. At some point, King Vegeta discovered the Demon Realm planet, and used it as his secret training location. Shortly after, Galactic Emperor King Cold came into contact with the Saiyans, and provided them with space-faring technology after submitting to his rule. King Vegeta marries Queen Eschalot. In Age 732, King Vegta and Queen Eschalot's elder son, Vegeta IV is born.

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.
Broly and King Vegeta
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.
King Vegeta in Age 733.
Around 733, King Vegeta and Queen Eschalot had a second son named Tarble. Due to lacking the fighting spirit of a Saiyan, Tarble was sent away from Planet Vegeta as an infant, as King Vegeta 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.
Frieza defeats King Vegeta in Dragon Ball Minus
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 ship. When 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.
Dragon Ball Z[]
Frieza Saga[]
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.
Trunks Saga[]
King Vegeta makes another appearance in a flashback seen in the Dragon Ball Z anime, during Vegeta's training to become A Super Saiyan.
Dragon Ball Super[]
God of Destruction Beerus Saga[]
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.

King Vegeta flashback in Dragon Ball SF
King Vegeta is seen in the first chapter of Dragon Ball SF. King Cold retires and Frieza takes over in his position, resulting in the Cold Force being renamed to the Frieza Force.
Abilities[]
- Flight – 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.
- 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. The final part of this attack involves King Vegeta using a large purple energy wave to blast his opponent away. He used the finishing blast against an army of Frieza's soldiers whilst invading Frieza's ship to rescue his son, Vegeta.
- King Blazer - In Dragon Ball Heroes and Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission, King Vegeta uses King Blazer which is basically the energy wave portion of Orga Blaster as his Super Attack.
- 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. It is also one of his Blast 1 in his base and Great Ape forms in Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
- Power Ball – The natural Saiyan ability to make an artificial moon to make use for transforming into a Great Ape.
- Chou Makouhou – Great Ape King Vegeta releases a massive wave of energy from his mouth. He is seen using it during a flashback of the Saiyan-Tuffle war in Dragon Ball GT.
- Super King Blaster - King Vegeta's personal variation of the Chou Makouhou. Unlike a normal Chou Makouhou, the blast is made of fiery ki rather than an energy wave.
- Chou Makouhou Barrage – Great Ape King Vegeta releases a rapid flurry version of Chou Makouhou.
- Super Explosive Wave – King Vegeta releases a gigantic energy wave that deals far greater damage than the basic Explosive Wave. It is one of his Blast 2 in his Great Ape form in Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
- Super Galick Gun – King Vegeta does use this technique in his Great Ape form in the Budokai Tenkaichi series. He fires it with one hand, in a similar fashion to the blast he uses to end Orga Blaster rush
- Howl – One of Great Ape King Vegeta's Blast 1 in Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
- King of Saiyans – One of King Vegeta's Blast 1 in Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
- Super Energy Wave Volley – Used in Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
