Biography and Story Role

Saganbo led the Galactic Bandit Brigade on a rampage across Universe 7 until the group was captured by the Galactic Patrol, specifically by the elite agent Merus. He and his crew were imprisoned in the Galactic Prison, where they remained until Moro broke free and offered them power in exchange for their service.

After escaping, Saganbo gathered the prisoners and brought them to New Namek aboard a stolen ship, presenting Moro with a ready-made army. Moro rewarded them with portions of his energy. During the battle on Earth, Saganbo received further power from Moro to fight Goku and the other defenders. Although the boost made him formidable, Moro kept feeding him more energy than his body could handle, gradually tearing him apart.

Saganbo's body ultimately gave out from the excessive power Moro forced into him. Goku was disturbed by how Moro treated his own subordinate as disposable. Whether Saganbo was among those revived after Moro's defeat remains uncertain, as members of his brigade still considered him dead afterward.
