Because most people might not recognize the character. Dragon Ball got away with it for the longest time because it's just THAT huge of a franchise. Right now, there's also tge ongoing Dragon Ball Super manga over at V Jump, so there's that.

Also, it should be noted that R.O.D. wasn't an Ultra Jump original. It actually originated in Super Dash Bunko. Which, while a Shueisha property, is entirely different and otherwise usually unrelated to the mainline Jump universe.
