Main article: Dragon Ball GT: A Hero's Legacy

Arriving while Mamba and her goons were chasing Goku Jr., he fired a cannonball at Goku Jr. He then unleashed a powerful snout blast at them. The father bear started to attack Yao, but Yao grabbed the bear by his neck and proceeded to choke him by turning his hand into a root that wrapped around the bear's neck. Then, his other hand turned into a blade, but, before Yao could kill the bear, Goku Jr. transformed into a Super Saiyan and quickly defeated the Demon Lord. What remains of him is unknown, as he was last seen passing out under some rubble after Goku Jr. sent him flying into a rock wall.

Power

Lord Yao About to Kill BEar — Yao turns his right arm into a sword while strangling a bear with his left arm turned into a root

Lord Yao seems to have above average human strength, as seen by his ability to crush the ground with his foot. He also possesses several special abilities. However he is still no match for Goku Jr.'s Super Saiyan power.

Abilities

Snout Blast – Yao shoots an energy blast through his nose. He used this on Goku Jr. when the boy survived the cannonball.
Shapeshifting – Lord Yao can transform into anything, even inanimate objects, and can hold a form as long as desired. Yao is observed using this technique to turn his body into several weapons, such as: a cannon, a root, an iron mace, and a cutlass-like blade.
- Cannon Transformation - Lord Yao turns his arm into a Cannon and fires a cannonball at the opponent. Named in Dokkan Battle where it appears as his Super Attack.

Trivia

Lord Yao resembles Bear Thief from Dragon Ball. His pig-like appearance and shapeshifting powers also provide similarities to Oolong albeit far more villainous.
Yao is one of several characters to call himself king of demons (or demon lord); the others being Shula, King Piccolo, and Dabura. Oolong was also called a demon in his first appearance.
- This makes his confrontation with Goku Jr. quite fitting as Goku Junior's relatives Goku and Gohan have both fought Demon Kings (Shula & King Piccolo in Goku's case and Dabura in Gohan's case). Gohan and Goten were also trained by King Piccolo's reincarnation Piccolo.
The armor Lord Yao wears resembles that worn by Chinese soldiers during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Bear Thief, Ox-King, the Tiger Thief, the nameless warrior from "Terror and Plague", and Sky Dragon also wear similar-looking uniforms.
Lord Yao is the final villain to appear in the timeline of the Dragon Ball anime series.
His Japanese name comes from the terms "youma" (妖魔) meaning "monster" or "demon" and the suffix "-Ō" (王), meaning "king".
