Universe 7 General/How strong is Gast Carcolh (currently)

Sorry for the double post but another reason why I believe Gast fought Buu instead of Dabura Andres is because of the simple fact Gast had a magical technique specifically designed to contain Zen Buu during his rampage in the second round. No way Gast could create such a complex technique on the spot, thus leading credibility that he has encountered the pink demon in his own universe.

You have to remember that in the specials the initial Gast was stronger than Frieza, but was easily overpowered by second form Frieza. It was after he finished fusing with a undetermined number of namekians he was able to easily outclass 2nd and 3rd form Frieza. Even after undergoing in his final form (percentage is unknown, though he was obviously not at 100% though the novel might have revealed his true percent rate), Gast did managed to easily kill Frieza.

Some time later (with a little training possibly happening, Gast was able to easily kill Cooler and his Armour squadron very easily. Not jump forth to his battle against Final Form King Cold. Despite not having control of his own power, the king of the frost demons (who is comparable to Androids 16, 17, and 18 at his lowest percentages) managed to match Gast blow to blow despite the super namekian having a slight edge. It was only after the frost demon was tired from firing his Death Ball which enabled Gast to kill him since he was no longer at the top of his strength. Now if Gast fought against King Cold while he was at 100%, Gast would have most likely lost even though King Cold would have most likely blown up from his sheer power. Thus Gast is considered to be weaker Semi-Perfect Form Cell at this point.

If you travel further in the future, it is revealed that Gast killed a lizard monster (most likely Perfect Cell) and a pink demon (Majin Buu or Dabura if you are inclined to believe that), which painfully suggests that his power would realistically clock out at a SSJ3 tops. It is true he does have magic, but it will not accurately represent the limits of his power his body contains. After all, anybody can beat a superior opponent if you have superior techniques, but it does not mean you can accomplish the same feats with your bodyif such techniques were unavailable. Thus Gast can still win this fight if he has stronger techniques he can use to crush Raichi and his ghosts. If not, LSSJ Broly and Hirudegarn will be near impossible to overcome in the long run.


32 years of training can only do so much for non-saiyan combatants, and unfortunately even a fused namekian will have his limits. 

Yes, but what i meant was that Frieza actually managed to land a few hits on a true Gast (e.g. here: www.dragonball-multiverse.com/en/page-519.html#h_read), while Gast also managed to defeat many times stronger Cold shortly after, so I don't understand people assuming that Gast is SSJ3 tier just because Vegeta punched him a few times.

Gast said earlier that strength alone was nothing.

Now we'll get to see if he can put his money where his mouth is now that behind him is Mr. Invincible and in front of him is the Fabulous Prince of all Saiyans.

I'm betting this is where we'll see what he meant by that. When two Titans of Strength have him cornered.

Time to get back to this thread.

I think it's safe to say Gast's regeneration equals or surpasses Cell's.

From a shred of an arm to fully healed and whole in about 10 seconds?

That's assuming he actually regenerated from the arm though. When we see Gast whole again his head is the only thing not dripping with green slime.



As we see in both DBZ and in DBM, when a character regenerates something the regenerated part has that same green slime while the undamaged parts don't.



I won't deny that it's necessarily impossible, especially given how some things have been retconned like Broly being invincible, but until then I haven't seen anything to suggest that this isn't standard Namekian regeneration given Gast's head isn't the only thing dripping with regeneration juice. I'm not sure how his head could've survived Ghost Vegeta's attack, but then again I've also no idea how Broly was constantly gaining power in an unconscious state while maintaining the Legendary transformation whle frozen in a big block of ice either.

To add onto this, Piccolo literally regenerates from a shattered pile of pieces courtesy of Trunks (though with his head intact) to fully healed and clothed in the next panel/page in the Buu saga, which is immediately after Dabura gets cookie-fied and eaten by Buu.
