@Wd40 its because he uses the parasyte due to the fact that he is not strong without it , aswell moreso he hasnt even known much of his own raw power
Spoiler!
|| because he got like some dungeon baby dementia and doesnt remember much back then , but in recent chapter even a dungeon baby that was born a few floors shallower than him , can fight as strong as him even with the parasyte , so its moreso he doesnt know much of himself , he DOES have alot of potential power ||
