Which could easily mean he's durable or a decent fighter when calm. Seriouly people focus to much or numbers.

I'll say Vegeta was about 2 million 2.5 million. That would put Vegeta around 100,000,000 - 125,000,000. So Vegeta vs Freeza would be a GREAT fight. I mean most likely be better than Freeza vs Goku. However Vegeta would either win because Freeza wasted to much energy or win after he use all his energy in one big blast.

This is a "versus" that comes up a lot, and like GmGoken said, I think it'd be a very close clash of powers, with Vegeta being either dead-even or just a sliver weaker than Freeza. Vegeta's odds of winning are already pretty damn good, but if he wants to make it easy, then all he has to do is stay on the defensive and let Freeza get tired out from using 100%. Then Vegeta's got the fight in the bag.

4,000 was the level he displayed vs the Z fighters. He powered up vs Goku. Goku said beating Nappa would take for ever.

All the statements and admiration shown by the Saiyans regarding the ability of the Earthlings to change their BP reading at will, plus Vegeta's statements on Namek regarding that ability that he had learned on Earth, tells us that the saiyans can't change their BP reading.

Manga > me? Of course. But please tell me where did it say that Nappa was in the 7,000(s)? I hate power debates so I'm not going to waste my time debating on it. But please please tell me when it say Nappa was in the 7k(s). You mean that line where it say "This going to take forever". Do we know that Goku was acutally trying? I mean of course he was 8k and all but let's be fair. He made Nappa his bitch. He didn't even charge a kamehameha and ruined Nappa's strongest attack.

So please oh dear Kami please. Tell me where it states Nappa is around 7k? I want exact wording.

I'll agree with Kakashi about 4.000 not being a fitting number with Nappa, and something close to 8.000 being a better choice. I don't believe that a x2 difference can make a battle even like Goku's & Nappa's battles were after Nappa powered-up, because they had an even fight (they fought evenly, their ki blasts clashed evenly, both Goku & Vegeta believed that it would be a long battle, and Goku needed Kaio-ken to catch him in speed), even though Goku was stronger. So, I believe their power difference wasn't very big, especially since x2 gaps are very big gaps (see SS2 Gohan vs Perfect Cell).

However, mine & his opinions aren't facts. For others, 4.000 may make sense.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Nappa was close to Goku as Goku said beating Nappa would take forever. Nappa can't 2x weaker than Goku, that's a fact

Ok believe in what you believe in. 4000 doesn't work for you but it works for me. Read my signature. That's the answer.

It just does. Simple as that. No need to debate these pointless numbers. They're numbers for Kami's sake. But if I must explain. Piccolo, Gohan, and Krillin offense. That's all.

Your numbers aren't fact. My numbers aren't fact. I go by what Daizenshuu gave us as I don't have an issue with it and quite frankly DONT GIVE A FUCK. Debating power levels is just a cluster fuck of people saying "IMO he's this"..."NO! IMO He's THIS!"

As someone on this website summed up what these number debates really are.
Huh...well to be honest they kinda have been "I'm right your wrong"

Buff Buu vs SSJ3 Gotenks. Let's assume that Gotenks is not an idiot, and is actually taking this seriously.

Gotenks might be able to pull off a victory if he could keep his distance.

Great match up. I think Buff Boo insainty might cost him. Gotenks weird ass attacks might give him the edge. With Buff just trying to attack randomly. I honestly can't answer this

Evil Boo is Super Buu's real, official name.

Anyway, assuming Buff Buu is as dumb as Pure Buu, Gotenks should win. The power difference between Buff Buu and Super Buu is negligible, and Gotenks had a good lead on Super Buu.

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.

Herms wrote:The fact that the ridiculous power inflation is presented so earnestly makes me just roll my eyes and snicker. Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.
