I see Elfman as someone with lots of power, enough to actually defeat fairly powerful characters if he really tries hard, but only problem is he can't hit them. I mean, his strongest beast soul was supposed to be a super powerful monster right? It was labelled as "King of monseters" by Mira. I think that should say something about it's power. I think a well prepared sneak attacked that hit at full power in a weak point outrightly defeating a worn out demon shouldn't be that far-fetched.
