If you ever wondered if Vegeta was the main protagonist of Dragon Ball, then Sparking Zero offers a fitting end to that imagination, as it portrays Vegeta in a good light compared to the canon story arc.
Number One Spot Branching Path Guide For Vegeta
The Parental Bond saga took place in the Cell Arc, the Number One Spot will take place during the Majin Buu saga. If you have seen the anime you know the episode where Vegeta gets the M tattoo on his forehead showing his allegiance to Majin Buu.
This storyline takes a different route, it imagines what if Vegeta didn’t get brainwashed by Babidi, triggering a whole new story arc in the saga. When Vegeta gets under Babidi’s control in the episode “Vegeta’s Wicked Heart”, you must choose ‘Shake off brainwashing.’ This will kick off Vegeta’s Number One Spot branching path for Sparking Zero.
Story Change #1 Vegeta Goes Against Dabura
Since Vegeta didn’t succumb to Babidi’s brainwashing, infuriating Vegeta goes all out against Dabura. Our challenge is to finish Dabura with Vegeta.
Reward: Zeni x1000, x50 XP
Story Change #2 Vegeta Vs. Babidi
After Dabura, Vegeta unleashes his anger against Babidi. Our objective here is to defeat Babidi. There is no extra challenge here, just defeat him to get to the next story change.

Story Change #3 Number One Spot, Vegeta Goes against Goku in the World Tournament.
With Buu out of the picture, everything goes back to normal, here the old threat emerges for Vegeta, and the rivalry between Goku and Vegeta takes centerstage once again. Here we must pull off Vegeta’s only dream, defeat Goku.
After eliminating Goku in the World Tournament, Vegeta gets the trophy as the winner of the Tournament. A cutscene will play, where Goku switches Super Saiyan 3 to Vegeta. This will encourage Vegeta to step up his game to catch up to Goku’s new power.
Reward: Zeni x1000, x50 XP
The scene played differently in anime, where we saw Goku going Super Saiyan against Majin Buu to reveal his secret power. This ends the Vegeta’s Branching path in Sparking Zero. Both paths provide a unique, unseen perspective to Vegeta’s story in the Z arc.
The game has several such branching paths for it’s characters, and if you want to check them out, we have guides that cover Piccolo’s branching paths, all Jiren’s endings in the game and all Gohan’s branching paths in Sparking Zero.
