His power comes from his Character, will, and determination. He doesn't need an advanced weapon to win. All he needs is his courage. I mean, he single-handedly took on an Ursa Major when all of team CRDL was proven helpless. That speaks volumes about who he is, and, although Pyrrah helped him win, he was the one who, as Ozpin put it, "[Took] the first step". His will is strong, his soul is pure (I mean, even his aura is pure white), and all he wants to do is help. He is a hero, he just hasn't been able to prove it yet.

Much like Ruby can be a hero without losing her innocence, Jaune can be a hero without losing himself in the process. I actually pictured Jaune being badass in the same way. Like, he gets all beaten but refuses to give up and then you knocked him to the floor and he rises again and then after running out of aura, he is fatally wounded but then, he rises again all wounded up but still standing.

That is something I love in the dorky characters. There are many examples like Naruto Uzumaki, Kenichi Shirahama or Ron Stoppable. Idiots, cowards and weak characters who have no talent in what they do but still, they never give in and look at them now.

No matter what happens even if there is no hope left or any possibilities of winning, they never throw away their ideals and refuse to fall. Like the song I May Fall, It pictures a woman and a man and the song is played for the first time right after Jaune and Ruby met. Also there is no need for Jaune to be a complete badass or a weapon's expert. For example, Naruto Uzumaki from the famous anime Naruto has defeated enemies who are waaaay above him with strategy and imagination. He doesn't need to be the strongest, he creates ways to defeat his enemies without the need of lots of Jutsus and resources. He uses what he has and finds openings in his enemies' defenses. I'm sure that Jaune will be the same.
