WARNING: The following contains spoilers for Dragon Ball Daima, Episode 10, “Ocean,” now streaming on Crunchyroll.
first real challenge Dragon Ball Daima Throwing Goku's way is Tamagami, the guardian of the Dragon Balls of the Demon World. These three sentinels are stationed in each of the three demon worlds, standing proud and proud until challengers approach to claim their respective Dragon Balls. Like all other Dragon Ball sets, Demon Realm's set was created by a Namekian. This time it was from someone named Neva. After creating the Dragon Balls, Neba began creating Tamagami to protect the Dragon Balls, which prevented anyone from making wishes for a long time.
Goku has already faced Tamagami number 3. Dragon Ball Daima Episode 8 'Tamagami' is a guardian assigned to the Third Demon World and a person who guards the Samsung Dragon Balls. Goku was able to defeat it with the help of his Super Saiyan 2 form, but exactly how strong was Tamagami since Goku was in the body of a child? How does it compare to previous villains and rivals Goku has faced in the past?

Dragon Ball Daima: The Difference Between Ki and Magic
Magic has always been an important element of Dragon Ball, but Daima is the first in the series to look more deeply into the Demon Realm's version of ki.
It's stronger than Dabura
King Goma's predecessor fought Tamagami and was defeated.
Aside from Goku, the most powerful character ever recorded to fight Tamagami is Sentai Demon King Dabura. Panzy mentioned Dragon Ball Daima In Episode 7, “Collar”, we are told that Dabura cannot beat Tamagami and get the Dragon Balls. Pansy's statement is consistent with the statement in Episode 1, 'Conspiracy', that the Goma King had not made a wish on the Demon World's Dragon Ball for a long time.
So both Tamagami are more powerful than Dabura, but where on a larger scale? dragon ball Power level? well Dragon Ball Z Episode 227, “Heart of a Villain”, after observing Dabura's ki, Goku claims that Dabura is as strong as Cell.
However, keep in mind that Goku is referring to Dabura under Babidi's spell. Babidi's mind control is not simply about forcing people to submit to his will. It also greatly amplifies their power, as evidenced by Spopovich, Yamu, and of course Majin Vegeta. This enhancement means that the Dabura who fought Tamagami was at least slightly weaker than Dabura Goku perceived. There's no set amount for how much Babidi's spell increases a person's power level, but even under that, Vegeta was pretty much on par with Goku's Super Saiyan 2, so it doesn't seem like an absurd amount. If Tamagami is stronger than Dabura without Babidi's spell, then we can at least say that it has something to do with Cell's power.
Tamagami also gives viewers a hint about Goku's power in Daima
It is implied from the beginning. Dragon Ball Daima Goku and the rest of the Z Fighters are not as strong as their original old bodies. But now that Goku has faced and defeated opponents that rival his previous villains, his power in his new body has become that much more evident.
Goku and the rest of the Z Fighters' powers do not appear to have been reduced by a detrimental amount. Being able to beat someone stronger than Dabura with just Super Saiyan 2 means you're close to his power during the Majin Buu Saga. Daima takes place several months to a year after the Buu Saga, so Goku must now become even stronger. This means that his strength may have diminished as a child, but not as much as King Gomah would have liked.
Perhaps the biggest problem when they become children is that their smaller bodies have a more limited range than older bodies and they need to relearn how certain chi techniques work. The amount of raw Qi within it seems to have decreased only slightly.

Dragon Ball DAIMA: Where is Gohan?
After being shrunk down to miniature size, Dragon Ball DAIMA sends Goku and the others on a daring journey through the Demon World. But where is Gohan?
They might be stronger than they are now
At least in the case of Tamagami No. 3.
No matter how strong the Tamagami are, there is a chance that they will not give their all against the challengers they face. During Goku's fight, Tamagami No. 3 actually asked Kamehameha to stop after being hit by him. Sure, Tamagami looked bruised and battered, but something about that scene felt different. He specifically stopped after “understanding” Goku's power, possibly implying that Tamagami was instructed to only fight up to a certain point. Tamagami No. 3 also showed that he could have fixed the hammer at any time, but chose not to, as if he wanted to test Goku's fighting prowess without the weapon.
“I admit! I submit!… There is no need to continue. I understand your power.” – From Tamagami No. 3 to Son Goku
Tamagami No. 2 and No. 1 may be stronger than No. 3
The atmosphere and storytelling are very different from the previous series, but is yet dragon ball. And one of the hallmarks of this series is that the threat continues to grow. It is not at all surprising that Tamagami No. 3 is the weakest and that No. 2 and No. 1 have completely different powers.
Dragon Ball Daima Episode 10 gave fans a taste of what Tamagami Number One can do when fighting Majin Kuu. Tamagami easily defeated someone with Majin Buu's essence. Of course, Majin Ku may be disappointingly weak, but it's also possible that Tamagami #1 and #2 are stronger than #3.
