Kaioshin told Gohan that multiples Kaioshins failed to pull out the Z-sword, and then he asks Gohan to do it, who first tried in base. If he were weaker than Kaioshin in base, he'd be an idiot for even trying to pull out it in this form. I know having base Saiyans > Kaioshin is hard with...
That doesn't make any sense. He even had the importance to summon up the CP0 and it was said that he still had the "strength" of a Tenryuubito because he had the knowledge of some treasure or something like this. Really bad write imo.
Sorry for the noob question, but enlighten me please: was Smoker really weaker than Vergo or he just lost because he was only interested in taking Law's heart?
