lol a yamcha full power (senzu bean) vs a creature 4 or 5 time less powerfull
not sure that the blow will have any impact on him.
Maybe it is just enough to destroy the remaining beans

Or is this the moment where dr gero can finally put him as an android ..
I suppose krillin and roshi will both be so badly damaged that guerro needed to put the peaces of two of them to build the krillin android

Actually it's more like a little less than 3.5x stronger. As I said on the last page to someone else (or was it you? well it was someone), going off of how Chewys' firmly believes canon Nappa to have been at 8000 PL, that would mean that canon Chiaotzu was 13x weaker when his self-destruct failed. So I think it is very likely this will actually kill Yamcha though it might not be enough to be an instant kill and maybe will give him a chance to have final words before he shuffles off to the after life.

Now something did come to mind and I'm actually curious if Chewys thought about this too. I wonder if Gero might end up getting his hands on the corpses of the bad guys who die in this battle, turn them into Cyborgs while their dead, and use the DBs to revive them under his control. That could be an interesting twist and possibly help Gero's side be strong enough to capture Yamcha later down the line.

The thing is, that according to Toriyama's canon, one can tank a full-blown attack from an enemy, so long as they possess twice the power of said opponent. So even if we go with Yamcha being 3x stronger than the Saibaman, he'd still possess more than enough power to tank the blast. My issue with/ Chewys is with Chewys power scaling, particularly with/ Yamcha & Roshi. Since Roshi stated in a previous chapter that after drinking the divine water, Yamcha was close to the level of Raditz. So much so that he was able to crush the strongest Freeza soldier, who had a pl of 854, with ease. So he had to at least be somewhere above 1,000, probably close to or at 1,200. Which if that's true, then 4,000 is quite a bit low for him given all the training he & Roshi underwent. He should be at minimum, about 6,000 or so, with Roshi being between 4-5,000.

Ahh the good ol Yamchaed!!!! U9 Yamcha will prevail I am sure of it. No little bitty saibaman shall defeat the great Yamcha!!!!!!! Although now I think the blast radius will the destroy the remanence of the senzu beans . Q: Were those the beans that Grandpa Gohan left at his house or were they new ones from Korin? PS Do senzu beans have a use by date?? CHeers

I bet Yamcha survive this but the senzu beans will be destroy by that blast.

That Saibaman deserves a medal, what a champ.
0h Yamcha, never change...

Noooo

Well that was... not unexpected. I called it the moment I saw the saibaman next to him... But this Yamcha is far stronger....

Dramatic scene, but the Yamcha is 4 times stronger here than in the Canonical History, and he is still in full power after eating a Senzu, this creature does not have 25% of the power that the Yamcha has, I am sure that this blow / Saibamen's suicide tactic will NOT have any impact on him. But unfortunately this will end up destroying all the remaining Senzus that Yamcha and Master Roshi took, this will leave both of them in bad shape, as their strategy was to attack with full force and then recover by eating a Senzu to continue fighting while the others do not arrive.

Seems like BOOMSTICK and myself are in the minority in believing that Yamcha will be killed by this. Self-destructing is supposed to be a means of killing someone stronger than you and Yamcha is only around 3-3.5x stronger than the Saibamen, so I don't really think he's strong enough to survive this or at least not permanently survive this.
I think he might have a chance to get in some final words after this Saibamen Kamikaze attack.

Nappa survived Chiaotzu in canon, but according to Chewys' belief, Nappa was at 8000PL which is around 13-14x stronger than Chiaotzu which is far greater than 3-3.5x stronger. I have a feeling the power difference needed to survive probably has to be at least 10x difference at this point in the story.

Errata corrige:
-That guy is certainly DAMAGED.
-If we fight and USE (not “uses”)

At any rate, the story is unfolding very well, the suicide was cool to see, though Yamcha shouldn’t suffer too many consequences as he just came back at full power. Yet, the senzu may be gone.

Actually, could the fact that Yamcha IS stronger be what changes the situation? This time he might survive but be completely ruined, enter Gero and the cybernetic enhancements.

No, really??
