Never could understand why he didn't have have any position of athority in the normal world. His skills should easily translate.
Yeah. For one, being influential means people pay more attention to your family and are more likely to expect you to be available at odd hours of the day and night. When you're a saiyan prince (de facto if not formally) who's got to put in
many hours adjudicating disputes and planning wars against alien invaders and so on... you can't afford that shit. It's one thing to block out eight hours a day to work at a garage, then quietly go home at the end of your shift on your bicycle, wheel it around back of some disused building and <
vip>with bicycle in tow back to your home.
Especially if you can do it during what would otherwise be your sleep hours as a saiyan.
It's another matter entirely to try to be the head of a corporation, or a political figure, who's expected to drop everything and deal with random crises even when you're not formally on call at your business. Ordinary people can do that for the sake of their jobs. Berra can't, because he already HAS that kind of job- namely, being Lord Goku.
By analogy, Bruce Wayne gets away with being Batman, which is a very demanding job that requires his participation at irregular times- but he does it by basically phoning in his life as Bruce Wayne. He routinely ditches parties, dozes off during meetings, and otherwise underperforms as a corporate executive. He only maintains his position by virtue of having inherited a lot of the assets, by having some very, VERY good help, and by being a unique legendary genius during the rare occasions when he isn't phoning in his performance. Plus being one of the few characters in all of fiction who may be even more driven and determined to milk every scrap of useful time out of their lives than Kakara.
Berra just... realistically does not have the time to cultivate ambitions in normal Garenhulder life, on top of his obligations as a lord. Kakara probably won't either, unless she
grossly abuses her power to be in two places at once.
It was spontaneous combustion and you can't prove otherwise.
We're talking about a faction of roughly 150,000 saiyans that considers Vegeta to be a founding father worthy of admiration. And where the Galick Gun is probably the single most popular saiyan combat technique, followed closely by other, more fire-happy techniques.
I think the aftermath of pissing them off counts as "spontaneous combustion" in the same sense that
Android 19 initiated its self-destruct sequence.
