In my books, he's at 80% of the Devil's power.He tells Goku that it won't go as easily as before. Was this pure delusion considering he just recognized the defeat of the Red Ribbon Army?
But was he stronger than Blue?Maybe. It's not like Black being stronger than Blue would have made any difference against Post Korin Goku.
He said he wouldn't be defeated as easily as the rest of the army and he knew about Blue's defeat at Goku's hands.But was he stronger than Blue?
I don't think he was really including Tao when he made that statement. Tao wasn't fighting remotely seriously against Blue and effortlessly killed him with his tongue so Black wouldn't have anyway of knowing how strong Tao was.He was clearly weaker than Tao and acted like he was suddenly hot shit and wouldn't go down easily against Goku. He was delusional as hell.
He still saw Tao's pillar throwing featI don't think he was really including Tao when he made that statement. Tao wasn't fighting remotely seriously against Blue and effortlessly killed him with his tongue so Black wouldn't have anyway of knowing how strong Tao was.
