About Ur fair enough, still a strong mage as Jellal said, if you have the ability to reach 10 wizard saint tier you still pretty strong.

I will give you Wendy, but how is Natsu eating some random ass flame Jellal (and Mashima) pull out of his ass going to make him that much stronger, especially since Atlas flame's fire (which should have been way stronger) didn't have the same effect. Natsu eating the Etherion should have killed him, even characters in the series stated this, so how is eating something that should have kill you going to make you stronger than a more natural transformation.

Plus Laxus used what appeared to be dragon force he had scales and everything, he was not that weak.

Even if you're right about that outside magical power making them stronger than Sting and Rogue using their own power two dragon forces users, using a unions raid should have not been so easily brushed aside by a base mode Natsu and Wendy dispatching one of Zeref's Nine Demon Gates so easily. Meh too convenient.
