What would make you think King could help him beat one of them? We saw what happened when Galan fought three Sins and a whole bunch of holy knights at the same time; absolute slaughter. And that was with Meliodas becoming much more powerful than either King or Ban is.

At best King can help them escape. King has the ability to use his 'true spirit spear' to power himself up to about 11000. I agree that is not enough  to fight a commandment, however Ban's use of 'Physical hunt' on Galan with king's true spirit spear might be enough to beat Galan, if Ban can drain enough of the former's strength. The issue here is that i doubt that this will happen because:

a) King's involvment is still not guaranteed

b) Time is not on Ban's side in a fight with Galan, as he could easily be batted across the landscape in a single blow (Ban's body is about is durable as a normal humans).

c) This is all to beat a single commandment... Galan alone, as you said, beat up 3 sins including Meliodas who powered up to 10300. The power gap between Ban and King compared to Galan is obviously a huge disadvantage, althoug Ban's ability can slowly reverse it. There is also the case of Ban not having his sacred treasure... that is also a problem. In any case... if Galan began losing the fight in any shape or form Merascylla would intervene and most likely use her commandment and from that point on it's gg.

I think it is more likely for Oslo to appear and sacrifice his life against the commandments to save everyone there (King as well, because i'm assuming he will get involved). A)  King using his true spirit spear almost killed him and like you said wouldn't mean anything here. Ban using Physical Hunt might be a thing if Ban has ever shown himself to fight smart, he has not. Furthermore, that's assuming he'd actually be able to steal enough without Galan, you know, beating him into unconciousness.

B) No comment.

C) Merascylla's probably going to be the one to deal with this anyway. They're there because she was interested in what was going on and now she's intersted in Elaine. Also to show off her fate. And frankly Ban and King even coming close to defeating one of them goes against the entire mood set by the story. It has been hammered in that, no, we can no beat them as we are now. I doubt he's going to go back on that.

Why would Oslow have to sacrifice himself? Just make a dust cover and then teleport himself and everyone out of there. It took me 2 seconds to come up with that. His death would pointless and he's a fan favorite making it even more unlikely.
