Fusion and assimilation with their own kind could be called the Namekians' most powerful technique.
Though the exact effects of this technique had never been clearly explained, they could still be roughly deduced.
In the original story, Piccolo had a battle power of only ten or twenty thousand when he fused and assimilated with the dying Nail on Planet Namek, whose battle power was only a little over forty thousand. Yet his battle power instantly rose to over a million.
Later, during the Cell Saga, Piccolo already had strength equivalent to an early-stage Super Saiyan 1. When he merged with Old Kami, whose battle power was only a few hundred, he immediately gained enough power to rival Android 17.
From this, it could be inferred that Namekian fusion could draw out at least a tenfold increase in power, even when a strong fighter merged with a weak one.
And now, the fusion between Piccolo and King Piccolo had produced the same effect.
Although his strength still fell somewhat short of Majin Buu's

Piccolo turned, put on his cape, and flew down to the world below.
At that moment, down on Earth, the former Fat Buu
