The Kami of the Previous Generation (先代の神 Sendai no Kami, lit. "Predecessor of a God") is Kami's predecessor as the Guardian of Earth.

Appearance[]

When he appeared in the Divine Sage Realm, he possessed no physical body due to being dead.

Personality[]

The Unnamed Guardian is a strict but loving person. He was cared for by Mr. Popo. He loves the world but hates evildoers. When he decides something, he hardly ever changes his mind. However, he does allow Kami and Mr. Popo use the Seven Air Currents to spread the Sacred Water over the Earth to cure those infected by the Black Water Mist despite them trespassing in the sacred Divine Sage Realm, showing that he recognizes that his successor and Mr. Popo only did so to protect the Earth and its inhabitants from Garlic Jr.'s evil influence.

Biography[]

Background[]

OriginalGuardian

Kami's predecessor, as seen in a flashback

The Nameless Namekian and Garlic were his apprentices until he chose the Nameless Namekian as his successor. This angered Garlic, who then decided to start a war against the guardian and his successor. The guardian and his apprentice eventually defeat Garlic's demons and sealed Garlic away.

After this, the guardian sensed that the end of his life was approaching, but still did not give his place to the Nameless Namekian because of the evil in the Nameless Namekian's heart. When the Nameless Namekian split into Kami and King Piccolo, Kami eventually becomes the new Guardian of Earth, and his predecessor died sometime after relinquishing his title.

Kami'sPredecessor3

The former guardian prepares an attack

When Kami and Mr. Popo are trying to spread Sacred Water throughout the entire world using the Seven Air Currents located inside the Lookout, Kami's predecessor attacks them because the place is sacred, and they are not supposed to go there. In the guardian's graveyard, he and the precedent guardians try to kill Kami. Kami and Mr. Popo tell him they wish to pour the Sacred Water at the bottom of the Lookout in order to cure the Earthlings from the effects of Garlic Jr.'s Black Water Mist. Kami allows himself to be tortured by his predecessor in order to distract him while Mr. Popo successfully releases the Sacred Water. The Lookout begins to collapse as a result of Gohan, Krillin and Piccolo's battle with Garlic Jr. and Kami tells his predecessors that by attacking him, they were weakening Piccolo which allowed Garlic Jr. to endanger the Earth, finally convincing them to release him and Mr. Popo.
