However, once he reached Great's level, ie., post 16 years, he no longer used the HIS, or any sword for that matter. There was absolutely no evidence that he would use a sword, much less a wooden sword, in a serious fight. He went back to his strength, which was sophisticated Great's level palm arts powered by Great level's internals.
DFBB's inner power is no joke. He used a freaking needle to block LHC's sword effortlessly. I believe, DFBB's inner power is at least at 65 level, if not near Greats'. You can use power to overcome speed but when that speed has comparable power, then it won't be so sure anymore and will probably come down to techniques. Again, I have to stress that because of his lost arm, YG's very vulnerable against multiple point attacks. DFBB is basically that. If he can fly around attacking 4 quality opponents at the same time, he can do that against YG. He's like a one-man formation.
