Goku was born an unimpressive low-level Saiyan, but later became one of the most powerful characters in the entire multiverse. Goku has seemingly limitless potential, and his potential has grown to its greatest extent thanks to his training and love of his own development, rather than any biological advantage like Vegeta or Broly.

After Bardock learns that Frieza plans to destroy Planet Vegeta, he and Gine send Goku to Planet Earth in a space pod. There, Bardock would be able to live a life among humans that would cause him little or no harm.

However, this backfires dramatically as Goku develops a genuine relationship with Broly. Broly now trains with Goku and Vegeta on Beerus' planet to master the legendary Super Saiyan transformation.
