Hopefully zero.
A world without Dragon Ball is just meh.

I hope they don't change Freeza, he's currently written as an irredeemable evil opportunist who will only do good if it benefits him in some way. Given the opportunity, he would destroy the gods and take over the 12 universes.

I wouldn’t count on seeing them tackle any kind of grand story like that with Freeza. I know the anime hinted at it a couple of times, but nothing’s come of it since then. Moving forward, I think Freeza is going to serve as more of a nuisance than a legitimately dangerous threat. Basically, he’s like Skeletor or Team Rocket.

If I had to guess, I think they will have an evil god or angel give Freeza power and use Freeza as a proxy to accomplish their goals anonymously.

If he ever teams up with Goku again, I can see it being a "no one gets to kill you but me" sort of thing. It's a cliche, but I don't see him going any further than that.
