After rehabilitation, Cui tells Vegeta that Frieza is already on Namek alongside his henchmen Zarbon and Dodoria, and that they are searching for the Dragon Balls thanks to Frieza still monitoring Vegeta and Nappa's scouters and learning of the Dragon Balls through the scouters. Without wasting any time, Vegeta makes his way to Planet Namek, now planning to make a wish with the Dragon Balls. During his stay on the planet, he meets up with Krillin and Gohan, who were also in search of the Namekian Dragon Balls. He tries to track them down and torment them, but eventually leaves them alone since he has much bigger problems such as Frieza, his previous master and the warlord who was also in search of the mystical Balls. While on Namek, Vegeta is followed and ambushed by Cui. Frieza had given Cui the order to terminate Vegeta, a command Cui had been hoping to hear for many years. However, unbeknownst to Cui, Vegeta's encounter with the earthlings allowed his strength to grow exponentially higher (as a Saiyan's strength increases every time a battle leaves him at near death). Now witnessing Vegeta's true power, Cui attacks Vegeta, but Vegeta easily evades Cui's attack, telling him that when his power increased, so did his speed. He then easily kills Cui.

Vegeta then sets his sights on Jiren, who is meditating, but before he can do so, Top appears in front of him. The Leader of the Pride Troopers tells Vegeta to fight him, but Vegeta states he has no interest in fighting Universe 11's Number 2 fighter. Top retorts by saying Vegeta is Universe 7's Number 2 as well, greatly angering Vegeta and promptly beginning their battle. For most of the time, they are able to fight evenly, but due to the battle between Caulifla and Kale vs Goku, Vegeta is distracted for a great period of the battle, especially after the girls merge into Kefla. Top notes this and says to Vegeta if he is so interested in their battle, he could watch it on the sidelines, proceeding to trap Vegeta in a lock. Vegeta shouts with great pain, but after regaining his senses, Vegeta hardly elbows Top in the gut, releasing him from the lock and causing Top to lay on the ground while momentarily knocked out.

Eventually he notices that Moro has begun fighting with his opponent being Goku and shortly after he masters his technique. He asks Pybara to teleport him to Earth only to be told that it is against the rules of the Yardrats to teleport off world.
Vegeta demands to be taught the Instant Transmission technique himself, saying that he will master it faster than anyone before. Sure enough, after a brief misstep and having turned down Pybara's offer to teleport him to Earth due to it being an emergency, Vegeta successfully teleports himself back to Earth much to Goku's surprise. Telling Goku that he probably wouldn't be able to pull it off again nor has any intention of learning it afterwards, he states that he has learned a superior technique and tells Android 17 and 18 that it is now his turn to fight Moro. After taunting Moro, Vegeta transforms into his Super Saiyan God SS Evolved form and charges straight for him.
Main article: Granolah the Survivor SagaGoku and Vegeta return to Beerus' Planet to continue their training. Vegeta and Beerus watch as Goku spars with Whis using his Perfected Ultra Instinct state. During the session, Vegeta asks if Whis is using Ultra Instinct at the moment and Beerus tells him that the Angels are always in that state. Beerus asks if Vegeta plans to master Ultra Instinct too and after he declines Beerus says that there is another technique of the Gods that the Gods of Destruction use. Though Beerus refuses to tell him what the technique is, he does tell Vegeta that he is going to get some exercise and that, if he sees anything he wants, he is free to steal it.
Vegeta turns his attention back to Goku Black, the latter of whom holds a heavily-injured Goku by the neck. Vegeta begins to charge up a Galick Gun and the Crimson-Masked Saiyan promptly tosses Goku aside. Staring at Vegeta, he recalls what Fu had told him about Vegeta's current form and that the limitations of Vegeta's body would soon catch up to him.

Soon thereafter, the Crimson-Masked Saiyan faces Goku once more and proceeds to destroy the planet. With Cell's sudden arrival, Vegeta and the others are teleported safely back to Earth.
Vegeta and the others soon join Gohan and his group in a nearby cavern and Vegeta asks Cell why he is tagging along. Vegeta gets his answer when Shroom appears along with Salsa and Putine and explains that Cell is lending a hand in taking the Crimson-Masked Saiyan down though Vegeta does not trust him. With a powerful enemy to face and Vegeta not having yet mastered his new found power, Shroom and the other demons open up a doorway to a room similar to that of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. Goku and Vegeta go inside where they face phantoms in the guise of enemies from the past and seemingly complete their training in time, leaving the room and making their way to West City to face the powered up Super Saiyan Rosé 3 Crimson-Masked Saiyan.
When fighting against Beerus, despite his increased strength and mastery over Spirit Control, Beerus was able to easily repel all of his attacks and defeated him easily once again through his usage of Ultra Ego.
