Piccolo wasn't scared though, he was noticing the huge power level, which should be an indicator that he might not be quite on that level. Although, I don't think he's far off.
Piccolo was scared. Did you see his face? The way he spoke?
Looked more surprised. He briefly mentioned it before talking about Gohan and Krillin.

I'd have to look at a higher quality scan, but from the LQ scans it does look like surprise. His tone still sounds more like he had no idea Freeza was so powerful, not a power he feels confident in fighting on his own, at least.

Chapter: 294 (DBZ 100), P2.2
Piccolo: “I feel an outrageously large ki far away…! Is th-this the monster called Freeza…!? There’s three huge ki close by…! That must be Gohan and the others…!”

Chapter: 294 (DBZ 100), P14.1
Context: as Freeza powers up
Piccolo: “That large ki has become even more absurdly large! Is this ‘Freeza’ finally starting to move?!”


That aside, Piccolo flatout admits he's not as strong as Freeza when talking to Nail, so your initial 800,000 was incredibly off.

Chapter: 295 (DBZ 101), P1.4, P2.1-5, P3.1
Nail: “I-I’m astonished…I don’t know what kind of training you’ve done, but you’ve acquired unbelievable power…Still, it’s unfortunate…If you had only returned to the original, single Namekian you were, you might have been able to defeat even Freeza…”
Piccolo: “Are you saying that if I merged with God once again, my power would even surpass Freeza!?
Nail: “Th-that’s right…I was overwhelmingly defeated by Freeza, but I should have a good comprehension of his abilities…[ ] So merge with me…! I’m also the only fighting-type Namekian on this planet…[ ] That’s right…Your power will become many times greater…”
Piccolo: “…You’re not lying, are you?”
Nail: “If you think so, you can just go get killed by Freeza…”


Nail made Piccolo many times greater, while Kami could've only made him about twice as strong. It's all in the statements, so unless someone's found a way around that, that's how it is, I guess.

Piccolo when he arrived at Namek wasn't much from me, I have him at 200.000 range at most but not above that there's no reason to anyway, but he still completly beats Nail no problem ^_^

I'll give it to Nail on this one. I don't think Piccolo's gains are > 40,000.

It makes no sense though, because Nail practically says he's the second best thing (like I've said before). He says if Kami had been there, the boost would have been greater than the sync he could have provided Piccolo.

I admit my 800,000 is way off, but that was a biased estimation. I am fairly happy with putting Piccolo around 350,000.

I don't think that Nail ever said such a think,at least in the manga I'm holding in my hands right now,that's what he says:

DBZ Volume9(25) Chapter 101-The Assimilation
Context: After Nail says to Piccolo he could perhaps take Frieza as one being
Piccolo: "Are you telling me...if I become one with Kami again,then I could even surpass that bastard Friezas power?!"
Nail: Yes...I was...utterly crushed by him....but I think I understand his capabilities...
Piccolo: Well, there's nothing I can do now! And I have no desire to become one with that fool again!
Nail: Then...assimilate me! I am this planets...only warrior namekian....

At that point Piccolo was making awesome power gains, almost on the level of Goku. Goku went from around 400 to 8,000 with King Kai. I believe Piccolo achieved a lot with the time he had. Even though it's not canon, I do believe Tien, Yamcha, and Chaoitzu got good enough to take on the Ginyu force. So that's:

Chaoitzu: 10,000
Yamcha: 38,000
Tien: 45,000

By that point I think Piccolo would have been good enough to take on Goku during his arrival at Namek. So I'd say Piccolo was around 100,000 at that point. As ridiculous as it was at the time I think he got a 10x multiplyer with Nail, giving him a max power of 1,400,000 vs Frieza, whose 2nd form was 1,250,000, and third was 2,000,000. So by that point he would trash Nail.

As far as Kami goes, I think the multi he got was less than Nail. Kami's PL was insignificant, while Nail's was very significant to Piccolo. Fusing with Kami gave him back his more powerful half for a 2.5x multiplier.

Where'd he say that? Didn't he just say fusing with either of them would make Piccolo stronger than Freeza?

The fact that he mentions the fission between Piccolo and Kami first speaks for itself. It's only afterwards he suggests fusing with him.

I believe that could be Nail goading Piccolo into merging with him. At first he claims Piccolo "might" have been able to beat Freeza if he had been merged with Kami, and after Piccolo buys into it, he immediately suggests fusing with him. I don't think there's really a comparison in there.

He rectifies himself though, when Piccolo asks if he could defeat Freeza. That 'maybe' doesn't seem serious.

That's why I'm suggesting it was a lead-in to his fusion referral. Softening up Piccolo for the punchline. Hook, line, and sinker!

Alright, I see what you're getting at. I was just trying to defend the Piccolo/Kami bit.
