Top 10 Strongest Dragon Ball Z Characters Featuring Olibu

The Emergence of Olibu in Dragon Ball Super Chapter 104

As Dragon Ball Super Chapter 104 unfolds, the universe welcomes a new canon character. Olibu, once a formidable warrior in the afterlife, steps into the spotlight. Trunks discovers his legacy while visiting a museum dedicated to Earth’s past heroes. Among the statues stands Olibu, cementing his place in Dragon Ball history.

Olibu made his initial appearance in Dragon Ball Z, challenging Goku and Pikkon. Despite his prowess, Yamcha bested him, underscoring Olibu’s strength limitations. Before Dragon Ball Z’s main events, Olibu was the strongest human fighter. Yet, as power levels soared in the Cell and Buu Sagas, his dominance dwindled. Nonetheless, Olibu could effortlessly overpower the toughest fighters from the Frieza Saga.

Nail: The Once Mighty Champion of Planet Namek

Before Piccolo’s arrival, Nail was Namek’s unrivaled warrior. Though powerful, he couldn’t match Olibu’s strength. During the Frieza Saga, Nail was leagues above Frieza’s henchmen, Zarbon and Dodoria. Unfortunately, he never demonstrated this prowess in battle.

Nail’s clash with First Form Frieza revealed his limitations. Despite his strength, he failed to land any significant blows and was ultimately defeated. Had he joined the fray against the Ginyu Force, Nail would’ve met a grim fate, akin to Vegeta’s. His most significant contribution was merging with Piccolo, boosting the latter’s power. A battle against Olibu would mirror his defeat against Frieza.

Recoome: The Relentless Brute of the Ginyu Force

Recoome’s intimidating presence made him a fearsome foe. Vegeta, Krillin, and Gohan unleashed all they had against him. Yet, they found themselves at death’s door until Goku intervened. Recoome’s strength was undeniable, but he paled compared to Olibu.

Both Recoome and Olibu exuded power and muscle, but appearances can be deceiving. Olibu’s strength and cunning surpass Recoome’s brutish tactics. Olibu would dismantle Recoome as effortlessly as Recoome overpowered the Z-Warriors.

Burter’s Speed Insufficient Against Olibu

Burter, the Ginyu Force’s self-proclaimed speedster, boasts of being the universe’s fastest. While impressive, his speed pales compared to Olibu’s agility. Olibu, quick enough to keep pace with Goku and Pikkon, can easily outmaneuver Burter. Both Goku and Pikkon could dispatch Burter in seconds.

Burter’s fleeting moments of glory end swiftly. In a tag-team with Jeice against Goku, he’s effortlessly outclassed. Even posthumously, Burter and Jeice suffer defeat anew, courtesy of Tien.

Jeice: Ginyu Force’s Ill-Fated Second-in-Command

Though Jeice holds a rank higher than Burter and Recoome, his strength is not markedly superior. He often partners with Burter, but their combined might falls short against formidable opponents. The “Red Magma” loses decisively to both Goku and Tien Shinhan.

Olibu might empathize with Jeice, having often played second fiddle to Pikkon. But, like Pikkon, Olibu eclipses his Ginyu Force counterpart. Alone, Jeice faced Vegeta and died in cowardice—a fate he’d meet once more against Olibu.

Captain Ginyu’s Desperate Gambit Against Olibu

Captain Ginyu, once Frieza’s top subordinate, wielded considerable power. Yet, he never neared Frieza’s prowess, standing only marginally ahead of his soldiers. In a brawl, Ginyu would meet a swift end against Olibu.

Ginyu’s sole hope lies in his body-switching ability. However, executing this would demand more time than Olibu would allow. Rendering the attempt futile, Ginyu would face certain defeat.

Chiaotzu’s Surprising Strength in Dragon Ball

Despite his reputation, Chiaotzu isn’t as feeble as many assume. Though the weakest of the Z-Warriors, he trains rigorously with Tien Shinhan. However, Tien opts not to bring him to the Androids’ battle, predicting Chiaotzu’s inability to keep pace.

Chiaotzu’s psychic abilities would challenge Olibu, yet not sufficiently. Engaging Olibu physically would prove disastrous. Even self-detonation wouldn’t guarantee victory. Despite being underestimated, Chiaotzu can’t rival Olibu’s might.

King Cold’s Lost Legacy in Dragon Ball Battles

King Cold, another of Frieza’s contemporaries, found himself outshone by the Saiyans. By the time Olibu emerges, he already outranks Frieza by Goku’s standards. In King Cold’s singular canon encounter, Future Trunks dispatches him with ease.

During the Otherworld Tournament Saga, Pikkon swiftly bests King Cold. Given Olibu’s near-equal capabilities with Pikkon, replicating such a feat comes naturally.

Frieza’s Long-Standing Inferiority to Earth’s Heroes

When Goku harnessed the Super Saiyan power, Frieza faced ultimate defeat. Though Dragon Ball Super rejuvenated his villainy, Dragon Ball Z often saw Frieza fall. From getting disassembled by Future Trunks to enduring Pikkon’s swift onslaught, Frieza was reduced to a shadow.

Olibu, with time as his ally, could have subdued Frieza well before Goku. Whereas Frieza coasted on innate power, Olibu dedicated centuries to refining his combat skills. At best, Frieza could manage minor wounds on Olibu before groveling for mercy.

Android 19’s Futile Fight with the Z-Warriors’ Champions

Android 19 stumbled as arguably the weakest android. Initially overpowering Goku due to a heart virus, his luck swiftly ran out. Super Saiyan Vegeta toyed with 19 before obliterating him.

This dismal performance mirrors Frieza’s futile battle on Namek. Though 19 lacked ki and could absorb his foes’ energy, neither would avert his fall against Olibu.

Dr. Gero’s Formidable Facade in Android 20

Dr. Gero, or Android 20, represents the zenith of challenge for Olibu. While Olibu nears Pikkon’s strength, who is superior to all in the anime’s android saga, an anomaly arises. His surprise loss to Yamcha looms large.

The Buu Saga places Krillin above Yamcha yet below Android 18. Hence, Dr. Gero marks the apex of what Olibu might overcome. Despite this, Olibu remains unmatched in the series, without a single foe capable of rivaling him without prevailing.
