Saonel

Saonel's History

Dragon Ball Super

When news of the impending Tournament of Power and its horrific nature came, Champa and Vados decided to recruit Namekians of their own. In the anime, once Universe 6's Planet Namek were told of the situation, many Namekians decided to merge their beings into their two strongest warriors, which were Saonel and Pilina.

In the anime, during the struggle between Jiren and Goku's Universe 7's Spirit Bomb, Saonel was seen clashing with Biarra, while standing next to Pilina, who was fighting Catopesra.

Later, Saonel and Pilina sneaked up behind a weakened Goku and attempted to launch a surprise attack on him, but the two were stopped by Piccolo and Gohan, who challenged them to a fair fight. Saonel had the edge against Piccolo, but Gohan intervened and Piccolo seized the opportunity to strike, blasting Saonel away. Pilina saved Saonel by breaking Piccolo's ki blast and the two pairs of fighters regrouped, ready to continue their battle.

He and Pilina were forced to retreat to avoid Kefla's blasts. However, after conferring with Champa, the two quickly re-engage Piccolo and Gohan. The two gain the upper hand when they finally adjust to their fusion with other Namekians of their universe. Eventually, after a brief struggle, Piccolo and Gohan were able to overpower Saonel and Pilina, and the two were knocked out of the arena. The two then run away from Caulifla, who promised to beat them up if they failed, before they, and the rest of their universe, are erased by the Onmi-Kings.

Saonel is later revived with his universe when Android 17 uses the Super Dragon Balls to resurrect all of the universes that were erased.
