The tree situation was a pretty cool one.

I have a message from another time...

Turles put up a decent fight against Goku with a power level of 30,000, but was losing, so we can probably assume he's a bit weaker than that. After eating the fruit he's kicking around Kaioken x20 Goku, so he's gotta be over 600,000, or somewhere between Frieza's first and second forms.

We don't know how much stronger he'd be after eating the second fruit, since he almost immediately gets obliterated by the Spirit Bomb.

Well if the first fruit jumped him from Below 30,000 to above 600,000, we can possibly assume a 25x increase at the minimum.

As such, a second fruit likely did the same jump, putting Turles at around...15 mil...

Ummm, guess this goes to show that eating demonic fruit is good for you?

Except it was a Kaio-ken x10 in the original dub, the FUNimation dub made it a Kaio-ken x20.

Ah, then 300,000.

Of course, we don't know if the fruit increases power multiplicatively or not. Or if its effects wear off over time.

Well I guess that would make it a little more tolerable then.

It'd mean probably a x15 jump from the fruit both times, so lets say by that logic that Turtles was 25,000 and ate the fruit, which would put him at 375k. Then he eats the fruit again, and his PL is 5,625,000. That'd put him at about 4% of Frieza's Final Form power.

No, just feed U. Gohan the fruit and teach him Kaio-ken and then WHOA shoved to the side anyway.

And then Gohan forgets to train, forgets how to use the Kaioken and forgets that he has powers that don't go away.

Sadly, he won't be ready by the next movie, as it will take place a mere 3.5 months after Revival of F.

Now I'm trying to think of how to fit Turles into the canon. Obviously, he'd need some serious retooling, removing his band of misfits and whatnot. Probably would show up during the Namek saga?

Oh, they looked super cool, but stacking them on top of the baddies already introduced during the Namek Saga just turns into Loads and Loads of Characters.

I don't think the Namek arc needs any more villains.

Perhaps Goku could encounter him while Turles invades Fake Namek?

I'd say one of the only ways to work in Turles and his crew is if they replaced the Ginyu Force.

But if he didn't have his crew, perhaps he could've been a member of the Ginyu Force.

Easiest way to include him is have him appear as a baby in Jaco. He could be shown in a flashback of Jaco smashing a rock through his head.

Didn't Gohan need glasses since his eyesight got bad from all the studying he did in his life due to Chi-Chi?

The Chi-Chi thing is more because she was kind of the one who started the whole scholar thing in the first place, but the fact remains his eyesight would have still gotten bad from all the studying he did from age five to him becoming an adult.

Or, you know, he could just be short-sighted naturally. But I don't think there's any reason Toriyama gave him glasses other to emphasise the fact that "Hey, he's a nerd!"
