How strong do you think Nam, King Chappa and Bora were at the beginning
of Z, assuming they each continued training throughout that entire time period? How would they perform at the 22nd or 23rd tournaments? Any power level numbers welcome.
Good question! I think Nam and King Chappa would have trained hard for the tournament. I'm not sure if Bora would have done more than his usual duties as a protector.
Nam and Chappa never made it past the qualifiers during the 22nd. I don't think Bora would have either given the talent
of the turtle and crane schools.
As far as Z goes. Chappa may have gotten to a level where he could challenge the Goku he fought during the 22nd TB qualifiers. He certainly thought he'd improved enough to challenge an even stronger Goku in the 23rd but stood even less
of a chance this time. It's possible he got stronger than Tambourine but I'm not sure either way. He was always stronger than Nam though, IMO. Roshi assumed Chappa would give Goku some trouble. So equal to or less than Goku/Tien from the 22nd.
Nam on the other hand, would be weaker than Chappa, so by the time Z rolls around I'd put Nam at around Yamcha's level from the 22nd TB. I think that's big for him but in 8 years, I can see him managing it.
I don't think Bora got much stronger but I can see him increasing his strength by 50% by the start
of Z in the 9 or so years since Tao killed him.
BONUS:
By the time Super rolls around, I think Chappa might have reached a level close to Goku and Piccolo from the 23rd TB
For Nam, I think he wouldn't have grown nearly as much as Chappa. He might have maxxed out at that 22nd TB Yamcha level or grown ever so slightly stronger.
As for Bora, I don't think he'd grow that much from what I stated before, unless he trains with Korin.
Big fan of the characters of Dragon Ball, all of them, especially formerly prominent sub-characters. -__-
