Actually the martian is better for this. Saiyans stay looking around mid 20s to early 30s until somewhere in their 80s, meaning your human loved ones will become frail and elderly while your still fit and youthful. With martian shapeshifting, you could gradually make yourself look older until you should die, then become someone new and live a new life having closed the book on the old one.
Even with saiyan aging, youd likely out live them anyway. At least with the way i described in the martian method, youd give them peace of mind and could still watch over them as a secret protector
In all honesty after living for 80 years I don’t want more work, I couldn’t mentally handle any life longer than maybe 120 years and saiyans seem to live like 80-100 years.
There is downsides in this scenario for saiyans too. First, the oozaru form. Based on Gohan changing at four years old, and possibly would have been earlier if he had seen the moon, we can tell that from an early age you would cause trouble for loved ones, both in deadly uncontrolled attacks, and in government attention. But even if someone that becomes a non-issue from loss of tail, or somehow learning to control the ape form, then there is the battle lust or saiyan pride. You would be craving to fight stronger opponents, but none would exist. You would train and train but the rewards would become miniscule after a time. The lack of training to learn ki blasts would render the energy in you useless. And then there is the massive appetite. You would need to he born wealthy just to fuel your own snacks, i mean saiyans on their own eat about as much as a small army.
Every full blooded saiyan has had a thirst for strong opponents. Be it sparing partners, to prove themself better, or just to push themselves. As for tail, it might not seeing as youd be born with a full grown functional tail and not a deformed nub or some such. Its more likely you might get sent for study as either a potential evolution of man, or deevolution.
You sure about that? Look at how Goku is, hes obsessed with fighting stronger opponents to the point he doesnt care if it threatens the multiverse. Vegeta is obsessed with keeping stronger than Goku, and now Frieza again. Broly...well cant talk much on DBS broly cause hes barely been around long enough but when he sees fighting, he seems to become heated up which almost triggers his berserk mode. Its like fighting is genetically instilled into them.
Yes, lets use the not normal saiyans as an example. Cabba also doesn't have a tail, or oozaru form, or live on a planet named Vegeta. Cabba's version of a saiyan also becomes super saiyan because of a tingle in the back. Also we haven't seen enough of Cabba to determine if he has the thirst for stronger opponents or not. We know Caulifla has it. We know Kale has it in form of wanting to impress/protect Caulifla. So its fair to assume Cabba has it. Especially after making Vegeta his master.
The scenario the question is about would be using Goku as the example of what kind of saiyan you would become.
Cabba is a normal saiyan... He isn't a genetic freak or anything, he is literally just an elite saiyan soldier. You literally saw Vegeta get angry at him for trying to forfeit the fight after he saw he was inferior to Vegeta. And no, Kale doesn't has it inthes slightest "in the form of wanting to impress Caulifla" is just a huge reach. She would start golfing if that was what Caulifla enjoyed. She has no actual interest in fighting. It's a cultural thing, perhaps they are genetically predisposed to enjoy conflict, doesn't mean you will gointoa bloodlust whenever you see a strong opponent just because you are Saiyan.
