When you talk about his pride, what Vegeta is tapping into now and last episode to level up, what has more impact: his family or his ppl? Vegeta has ALWAYS been about his ppl, and his place among his ppl, first and foremost. During the Buu saga breh wasn’t even sure if the bonds to his family helped or hurt him. He’s grown since then obviously. He values family in a way Goku never will.
Still, theres a reason we call him the prince of all saiyans, even tho the whole race been dead since the first arc of Z. There’s a reason ppl fan-theory about what will happen when he finds out Beerus gave the order to wipe out his planet.
When Super started, Vegeta had spent how many years accepting that the saiyans are done, save for him, Kakkorot and their children? Then... he finds out they’re not done, and ends up with a prodigy for a disciple. Meets saiyans during the tournament even stronger than Cabba. And now they’ve all been wiped out again.
As long as he lives, earth and his family are fine. I took that scene to mean he’s fighting for more than that. Dude got a second chance to save the saiyan race.
