the iron giant has been stalled out for so long that the anime literally caught up to its introduction before hes actually done anything in the manga lmao
lol
Did the iron giant eat the human human fruit model Monkey D. Dragon?
@@cristotheranger4263ironically, he’s gonna act before dragon 😭
Pales in comparison to Dragon.
@@Robss_ well we thought Zunesha was going to help in onigashima and look how that turned out
"You had to learn advanced armament haki just to tickle his balls"
Wonderful choice of words here sir.
This sentence was gold 😂
Tbh, I wouldn't be surprised if balls torture was one of the many torturous methods they used on Kaido to somehow kill him but just like the rest of the other attempts, it failed horribly
@@veriousshifter2930maybe its how yamato was born
@@majintv24 I don't think forcing someone like Kaido to take part in seks is necessarily torture, let alone a method used to kill the literal "King of Beast". If anything, the woman (or women) involved would most likely be dead after the fact.
@@veriousshifter2930 I wonder what happens to them in his complete Dragon form? Gives another meaning to the Bells of Skypiea
I'm convinced that Oda only spent so much time introducing these Vice Admirals as if they were going to be something big just as an excuse to create some funny designs that he had stored in a drawer
Yeah. You got me.
I think that’s why half the new Post-Timeskip characters exist at all.
Yep and also to show us, that by now we are far beyond fighting vice admirals xD I mean Franky did not just win but obliterated this guy..
Feels like something he'd do
419th 👍
The thing about Jimbei and shark meat: Hachi owns a Takoyaki stand. Fishmen eat fish, even the fish that they share traits with.
Not surprising other fish in real life eat other fish just usually not their own species
the fishman racism is strong in this video :(
fishmen are basically humans that look like fish, not fish that look like humans.
Hachhi wasnt doing that on fishman island though
@immersion6105 to be fair, so are marmeaids, but they don't eat fish ( but eat shellfish apparently)
@@phelps6205 yeah, probably because they have the ability to speak to sea creatures. Fishmen cannot do the same. However, we also have the minks who don't eat animals with fur even though they can't talk with animals. I suppose culture is a big part of it too.
I think people are forgetting Franky vs Blueno because taking into account the body hardening technique and the raw strength Blueno was known for and that Franky EASILY broke through all of that no problem pre time skip. I like to think the wapo-metal and his natural raw strength comes together to combat most vice admirals armament haki... Just scaling 🤷
I heavily agree. The scene of him fighting blueno was one of my favourites because of that
I mean the body hardening wasn’t exactly the same as Haki, I mean it was but it wasn’t lol. I think oda made it up liked the idea and realized he needed it for most people going forward but didn’t want it to be from some martial art only taught to high level marine martial arts assassins. Hell I think even Nami should be able to go toe to toe with a vice admiral and win, not strength to strength but her crafty attacks could baffle and overwhelm an unready opponent, hell even ussop should at least be able to heavily delay or seriously inconvenience a vice admiral now
Dude, don’t give me this “Jinbe is fish so he’s sad when fish are eaten.” Line. No he ain’t, he says, “ yo mate, pass the fish.” Cause that’s what he eats too.
Yea, I mean...he's a shark.. what do people think sharks eat ? Chicken ?
At least he’s not like that octopus man with 8 swords who opened a restaurant selling exclusively fried octopus balls lol
It's like saying chopper should be sad when luffy eats meat
Saying Fishmen shouldn't eat fish is like saying that humans shouldn't eat other mammals.
@@Rithan4 I mean, he's a whale shark. Those guys are filter feeders which only eat plankton and stuff like that.
the panel of Luffy throwing a building at Ju Peter made me now fully grasp that he is now an emperor
For me it was the Cymbols move, but this was a close second
With how he hurt his hand, I feel like Gear 5 is what truly makes him an emperor. Not a bad thing btw.
@@dusky5535sad but true, I want more from Luffy for some reason
Burgess threw a large portion of an island at Law and his crew. Is he emperor level? No🤡
The fishmen in arlongs crew could throw houses. Little throwback
I like that non-haki users can still defeat haki users if they are strong enough, like when Luffy defeat all those Haki users in Marineford
ya i hate idea haki equals instant win i like better is ur base skills plus haki is what takes not haki alone unless they advance haki and stuff like kaido bigmom ect.
Man your artists really speedrun those drawings huh
Yeah I've been training to make batch of llustrations in less than a day haha
@@Tengukiwoah you're actually the artist? Good stuff bro
@@Tenguki Damn your wrists gonna hurt
@@Tenguki I respect the grind very much 🫡
@@Tenguki - Most artists sacrifice quality for speed or vice versa, but kudos to you for mimizing either sacrifice. I have a mental collection of all your art used in Liam's art, so I notice every time a new art is used. Love it~
Hachi eats octopus so I don't think fishmen care
Nah, Hachi is just ice cold like Mr. Peanut 🥜🥜
Hachi is a fish man if they could they would like to live the same as the humans so that means eating fish
For the Whole cake island repeated ending I feel that was more Oda showing the reader that Sanji takes his cooking as serious as his fighting and that he is just as confident at being in the kitchen as he is kick fighting other pirates and marines.
Can we all agree, that we were all taken aback by the sexiness of the Nusjuro silhouette shot
it's as if he is the "zoro" of five elders coz this silhouette reminds me of some of zoro's iconic manga panels
I know, right? I knew he was not just trying to look cool with that sword. I knew he was gonna do something.
Horse man is the GOAT 🐐 🐎
I want the horse-man silhouette panel as a poster. Brook saluting goodbye was hilarious. Since they are on an island in the sky? Return of Usopp's SkyDials for the fight? Franky stocks are up.
This sounds like a title for a One Piece news channel
@@Tuffyimpact News at in 10 minutes
Next chapter one of three things will happen:
1 We hear the message (and Imu calls the 5 back in a rage, letting the crew escape without fighting them now and just teasing what the matchups will be).
2 They stop the message, but Luffy gets away (maybe with a statlite vegapunk or the giants who give us lore drops)
3 None of that shit and we get blue-balled into oblivion when it ends with Luffy about to be killed, a giant hurt, an elder about to step on a snail, and "10 more seconds, Stella..."
none of the above will happen next chapter
Option 3 seems most likely, with how this arc has been going.
None, iron giant stops mars and the other elder to get message out but readers don't hear the message marines chase the crew then get stopped by giants on their ship blasting them away.
we see big mom return for elbaf as well with maybe kaido so luffy and kid vs big mom and kaido.
I feel like someone is probebly going to try to hold of mars (maybe sanji or zoro) and somthing will happen that gives mars time to destroy the snail
Can we do predictions? I have one. Stussy's "Final Mission" isn't opening up the Frontier Dome, its playing Vegapunk's message.
You know since mars is on punk records the dripping bubbling sound effect could simply be vegapunk's gigantic brain fluids.
Even though there's still 1 min left, the match-ups that were set up in this chapters was worth it.
yeah I think something I've seen get missed is that 3 full minutes or more pass in this chapter
Franky doesn't need haki to beat low-level haki users. Armament haki is like extra armor, but it doesn't make you completely invincible to physical blows. Remember that Luffy was able to beat the two Boa sisters pre-timeskip
Tf you mean beat? They handled his ass and only stopped when he showed he had Conquerors
Plus it doesn't make much sense to use Armament with his arsenal. Franky Shogun is literally a bigger suit of armor. And his most powerful attacks are long-ranged attacks like Radical Beam and General Cannon, which can't be coated with Haki.
@@kristophesiem5336Yea that was cap but I agree with the overall point. Mostly because franky is no normal man. A strong right from him probably feels like high level Arnament lol.
with that said oda needs to find a solution for power creep because nami and big nose are looking pretty pathetic when seeing the swordsmen elder star… I mean seriously
Yeah, no need against some people who have the haki but he will need it, it will even be necessary against some opponents who have the haki. The whole crew must have it, it’s really necessary.
One thing to remember is that not all Mark III Pacifistas have been taken down as there is still one that is being controlled by Bluegrass
She's not riding one anymore, she's currently riding the sea giraffe
Ah she was too, my mistake
Luffy was more right than he could ever imagine when he told Sanji back on Whole Cake Island that he couldn't become pirate king without him. Gear 5 Luffy can't do all the things without all the food, and Sanji is one of the few chefs who can keep up with Luffy's appetite. I wonder if the special attack cuisine recipes that Sanji learned during the time skip will become more important at any point in relation to Luffy's gear 5 food needs.
Hmm.... maybe
Vice admirals are fodder level to haki users at this point
Unless you're Garp
@@dassadecor tsuru
Or Momonga
But Franky isn't one of those
@@gabrielgoes0who needs haki if you're body is made of metal?
The panel with V. Nusjuro is genuinely one of the most haunting panels ever.
3:22 Zoro went on quite the adventure there huh
Franky has Centaur mode, there should be a Centaur vs Centaur situation.
If in danger franky can just lay on his back and be invincible.
The thing Markus sees is likely the same thing Shaka saw on the surveillance screen
If you follow the Blackbeard is a clone of Rocks theory, or Blackbeard is part Buccaneer theory, can I just say Mars might be horrified by Rocks in a stasis tank...😮
That could be how Blackbeard is a clone of Rocks, Stussy handed him to her colleague Vegapunk to put in stasis and study and they even mixed in some Buccaneer blood to boot.
Something I noticed that was interesting (at least to me) is that Mars, the bird demon, possibly has the 'Voice of all Things'. When he was looking for the source of the Vegapunk message, he said he heard a small voice coming from inside the labosphere.
Artwork and editing are just so amazing, love the little snippet of joy boy dancing with with his buddies
Mars is looking at Iron Giant shocked that Oda used Iron Giant indirectly to end the chapter once again😂
But why Iron Giant go "Bloop Bloop" ??
@@calliopeshif7581 bloop bloop 😈
I’ve watched the entirety of OP since July of last year, and I’ve kept up with the manga both online and here and I just wanted to say thank you for being an outlet to this media, OP has genuinely changed me as a person and I love the vocabulary you choose!!
I'm thrilled to hear that OP has had such a great effect on you!
@@GrandLineReview hats of to you internet man
The Iron Giant powering up feels like the embodiment of that Tiktok trend that's been going around, where Person A needs something from Person B, but every time the camera pans back to Person B they're still just as far away as they were before.
3:21 Love how Zoro got lost in the anime verse
Next chapter has to be about God Ussop v Demon Saturn. Ussop unlocks Future Observation. I guarantee it, Internet Man😎
Nope
Yep
Why does everyone forget that the primary food source for fish are other fish?
Why would Jimbei care about seeing a fish or any other form of sea life being eaten?
GrandLineReview, Subscribed because your videos are so much fun!
Addirional emergency food supplies 😂😂😂
Honestly, I think to a certain point Jinbe could be trusted to make the sacrifice. Like an arm or somethin, he's a ride or die
@SOULNIGGAGAMER haha ...I'm laughing but your pretty on point
As annoying as the Iron Giant tease has been it's still better than expecting Dragon to do anything.
Im more tired of luffy running out of energy from his newest gear forms its been happening since gear 2, iron giant is nothing compared to that.
1:07 it's the same for brook in my opinion. He should have manifested haki by now
Hes made of bones, i think he has none lol
We are so fucking back
I feel like it's so obvious that the snail that the elder finds isn’t the right one.
Thank you for the criticisms you’re giving. When I talk to my friends about one piece, 1 friend has basically no opinions, almost as if he doesn’t wanna impose his perspective on odas story too much and my other friend doesn’t s literally unable to criticize anything about one piece, if I find a legit criticism he can’t weasel around, he’ll just ignore my messages he’s one of those types that scream Goda, and feel Goda can do no wrong. He believes Goda is doing some kind of master next level 4d underwater chess story telling. And it’s just so nice to be able to watch someone else press the stuff I feel as well. I don’t feel crazy watching your vids lol
I for one, am tired of how One Piece keeps ending chapters on cliffhangers, with a 50/50 chance the cliffhangers will be completely ignored in the next chapter.
@@Kaisona2017 Same here honestly yeah I feel like there's art is kinda pointlessly stretching itself out too like the whole 10 minute time limit really has no reason to exist
And I feel like a lot of chapters do end with some exciting Cliff Hanger But then the chapter afterwards will both be just feller talking or other less interesting things that have nothing to do with the previous chapters Major cliffhanger Maybe coming back to it to do a page or two of the actual important stuff
Ways I feel like Ode's struggling with how bloated his story has became I remember being really annoyed in wano How throughout it that fights kept starting and then immediately ending with no conclusion no point to the fight Just that him did a fight that's to come later and these skirmishes happened well over a dozen times with nothing satisfying to him Because they're so short and pointless
only for when the fights actually did happen for most of those fights to be extremely rushed like King In his fight was very rushed in the manga or queen who basically got one shot in his fight after his opponents spent most of the fight just running away like a baby with really only kaido getting any sort of real fight
To truly be a fan of something you have to be able to criticize it, otherwise you're basically just a cultist
One thing I have to say about the five elders though, is that I reaaly do not feel that overwelhming sense of power and dread that we usually get from one piece antagonists, especially post wano. Yes we cannot beat them right now, but the thing is that it's only due to their regeneration, the moment we find out how to go through this, they are toast. We have seen them being skewered, mangled, torn appart and literally sliced to bits, meanwhile they have yet to land a SINGLE attack on anyone actively trying to defend themselves. Compare that to Big Mom and Kaido that had a similar "invincibility" feature with their tough skin, when we finally learned how to pass through this, it was still an absolut slog to beat them, because they were so durable, but the elders, one of them was skewered by franky. And a lot of their attacks, while the would floor 99percent of characters in the serie, are just not effective because we are now in the 1 percent. They haven't landed a single thing on luffy (in fact I think the most damage he took was from himslef punching that boar), they even got parried pretty effortlessly by the giants, the most damage we have seen them doing against a character is Vegapunk, who is quite literrally a brainless old man..
No, Warcury roar of haki had hit Luffy and affected him.
@@lamontabenson4886 fair enough it did yes ! What I meant is rather an attack that’s not just an AOE thing
0:24 that animation did something to me...
Edging the iron giant is crazy
That is the statement of all time
the fact that Franky doesn't have haki right now only elevate his potential when he does.
Franky didn't just beat red king, he shattered red king's arm. The same arm that was busting up vegapunk's sea beast that defended egghead.
I love franky, but damn how much I wish that he would use sea stone gauntlets or something like that to fight some logia dudes…
@@SmiddyWthey did introduce those clothes that could interact with light this arc, maybe it's not just light but logia users as well
St. Marcus: **Destroys random computer to stop the stream**
York: This is not how videos on the internet work, grandpa!
Okay can we talk about how Luffy hasn't hit anyone with Conqueror's Haki this whole arc? You'd think he would use it against one of the elders at least. I'm hoping to see it next chapter with a reattack
Meybe he will use it later idk
He just threw did a red rock that left the boar gorosei unaffected so I think that will be a signal for luffy to use advanced conqueror's to overcome his tough skin just like he did to kaido, also an opportunity for a conqueror's clash since the boar guy also let out a conqueror roar previously
@@jimtsap04 I really hope so. If he was landing CH strikes with Lucci and Kizaru it could have had a major impact and it's irking me that he's not doing that.
@@Jdreeve11honestly i doubt conquerors will be as effective as with kaido but thats just me
@@jimtsap04red rock is ryou not conquerors but thinking how luffy evolved how he probably did add COC haki in that punch
The purpose of basic armament haki is to make anything you're using to attack as hard and tough as metal, but Franky is made of metal, so he doesn't need basic haki in a FIST fight against another haki user who isn't logia user. And NO ONE shall question franky's physical prowess, even before time skip, this cyborg was evenly matched withluffy in water 7, and luffy had already shown crazy strength feats until that point in the story. And after time skip, no matter how visually displeasing Franky's body jave become for many people (personally, i am a fan of his new design, especially with his old hairstyle), but it is a HUGE upgrade in terms of physical capabilities, not only he became a battleship in his own, he is also a machine capable of showcasing beyond superhuman strength.
Anyone else noticing the parallels between stussy and Bon clay stating behind Luffy won’t let this happen again
That panel of samurai Gandhi with the silhouette.. so freaking intimidating 😱🤣
You definitely deserve more recognition for this!
ara-RAD-nid is a spider wearing a backwards hat, sunglasses and a colourful jacket, riding multiple skateboards.
The whole panel in which york forms a triangle screams sus. Her speaking about sins and stressed relations emphasises heavily on that.
And were stussys eyes always like that? My first idea was she might be the transponder right now.
The last panel: old man is not amused at all. But neither surprised, nor in fear or anything else. More like he sees something in what he realises that they take a L
Everything is perfectly set up to be bothered by some big reveal: 1min left, all matchups facing each other, the giant have been seen approaching last chapter, so if he still moves even though G5 is gone, he should be there now. My idea is, what ever is up there on the top will be a decoy for the last seconds until the broadcasting starts, what will force the elders to decide to eradicate the island and let off the strawhats and the giant will send the sunny flying to help them escape.
But Oda will probably do something absolutely crazy no one thought off.
To be fair, Bonney is also 12 years old. So her kicking a child feels on point.
I'm certain Marcus Mars is standing in front of Vegapunk's brain 🧠
Jinbe is the aqua man of the group: everyone assumes he’s a joke until he starts throwing buildings one handed (in jinbes case category 5 tidal waves)
Jimbei would be fine with them eating sea food if hatchan had a takoyaki stand
They shouldn't have problems anyway considering the fish they're based off of are predators. And in Hatchi's case some octopi are known for eating other octopi
@@Drums_of_LiberationI thought Jinbe is a whale shark (that's also his namesake) fishman? Not exactly a predator species.
Hearing Liam say things like "needed advanced armament haki just to tickle his balls" is the best
11:18 beautiful
one thing you gotta remember is that the gum gum fruit makes you immune to all blunt force trauma just straight up, so luffy being hurt from the recoil of hitting the boar guy is actually a pretty big red flag.
At bested heavily dilutes the power of blunt force trauma but he's been hurt by blunt force trauma many times
kaido Used basically just a club
@@yami122 that's because of haki and he was the one getting hit, here he just hit the guy and it hurt him
@@pep4338 I wonder if that means that they're made of pure haki
I think the entire logic of “Haki user auto wins vs non-Haki user” just doesn’t imply when there’s just a huge difference in strength.
Franky is just THAT tough. And so is the Shogun bot. Because honestly, Haki wasn’t going to help Sasaki in that matchup, and neither is it helping Red King
I fkin love your Wallace and Gromit mugs
Frankie is made of literal metal though. Haki requires concentration and all that. But fighting Frankie is like getting into a fight with a Ford F-250 going 50mph at you. Like even if you have Haki, you’re not walking out without some injuries. Road rash or somethin
With the crazy setups that have been going on in 1112, what really intrigued me was when York said that she doesn’t want to rack up any more “sins” and the VPs relationships with each other were troublesome enough.
I wonder if something happened in the past that soured their relationship and, as a result, had to pay penance for it.
The five elders and the heavenly Dragons are considered gods so acting against them would be considered a sin so the sins talked about in this chapter were probably all the things vp did against the world government's leaders
I'm wondering if it's more of a failsafe system Stella implemented to prevent any satellites from rebelling and if York commits too many "sins" she'll automatically shut down or something
9:00
HAKARI???!!
*Tuca Donka starts blasting*
🎶🎶🎶🎶
I have two things to say:
1, What are the chances Vegapunk's message is coded in the talk about coffee?
2, What would Geko Moria be able to do with the shadows of the 5 Elders, or someone like Imu for that matter?
Moria solos the verse
Something that I haven’t heard people really talk about is that, even if the timer is only at a minute left, the elders would need to be held off until the message finishes. They aren’t likely to just sit back and let it play, they’ll try to stop it playing fully if they can’t stop it starting
Oda showed us a long time ago that you dont need Haki to beat someone who has it. Idk why its a problem for someone as strong as franky to do what he does
Can you please when did that happen? Legit asking here
@@gabrielgoes0 I guess Luffy Gear 2 against the Boa sisters and technically Enel's priests in Skypiea with Observation Haki. Hordy Jones ODing on energy steroids almost brought Luffy down, he did need a blood transfusion afterwards.
Crocodile probably knew Haki too and he was beaten by Luffy too. CP 9 had Haki too with Iron Body being a lesser version.
@@anglosaxiphone8246 Probably is the best we'll get, but we don't know nor can we prove it. Tekkai while having similar effects still isn't Haki. It's just raw physical defense up.
@@anglosaxiphone8246 yeah, those are good examples
At this point, I wouldn't be suprised if in the end, the iron giant will join the revolutionaries and look East together with Dragon
Marcus is probably looking at what is the brain of Vegapunk. The room was so hollow besides the den den mushi.
After cutting down a giant, i would love to see venus get attacked by the Iron Giant. But now that Luffy is bot longer in G5, does that mean the giant has stopped moving again?
Now I'm actually concerned about that. Imagine getting a cool waking up panel, and then it just go down again after G5 is ended
Dude Franky was always strong enough to have solo fight and taking down big guys in every arc. I don't know why youtubers like you made him underrated.
A very rare mid-day post
In your time zone. To him, it's a very early in the day post.
The Sanji-Ending-Chapters in wholecake Island are both, a pause for not needing a new cliffhanger but also showing the Will of Baratié, Sanji and Zeff, where they feed whomever is hungry, even if they tell them they'll attack him afterwards.
First feed, afterwards fight.
That's what it highlights by ending both chapters the same way :)
I think Sanji's food can upgrade Gear 5's duration, remember how they said that Kamabaka Kingdom's food revitalize the body
Something interesting to note is the way Luffy hurt his hand when he hit Warcury made it look like the time his Haki was being overtaxed by clashing with Katakuri's higher level of armament in Wholecake. It's hard to say if it's the same thing exactly, but it is horrifying if the Gorosei can create Armament Haki defenses so strong it mimics porcupine spines and hurt the attacker and that only higher levels of Haki can bypass the damage return.
Seems to me they imitating reatsu in bleach, the one who has less, takes the damage
I'm so glad Oda has been practicing drawing ass. Stussy looked so good.
So, as far as Franky vs Haki goes, I think it is more franky's strong arm has more damage behind it than what the vice admiral's can simply block with armoring Haki
The chronic lack of Haki amongst the crews actual fighters is really weird, yeah. Franky, Brook and Robin all should be capable of basic Armament by this point and I'm not sure what Oda is holding out on it for. At this point I wonder if they'll ever get it.
Everyone is thinking about how straw hats will escape while I am thinking about bounty posters of straw hats after the eggheads incident
Franky is just strong enough and hard enough to punch through Haki without needing Haki himself.
I don't get how vice admirals are SO USELESS
The moment the admirals left two positions vacant they had an immediate replacement.
So where are the useful vice admirals????
I love how oda is keeping us to our toes in each chapter ending,you say oh they are gonna get it now but suddenly something happens that saves their butts,something you cannot expect at all!
This best part about extended breaks is once they’re over you get the standard GLR overly enthusiastic “ONE PIECE IS BACK!!”
The fermented shark is going to be the Senzu bean of One Piece, which is a dangerous gimmick to introduce as it messes with the tension fatigue and injuries introduce into fights.
I like how Venus who's a swordsman is closer to Sanji and Mars who can fly is closer to Zoro, the matchup would be refreshing if they do run into them
At the start of the video, Franky is literally a cyborg who made tank modifications to his body you need more than just basic haki to beat him.
Mars is looking at Rocks at the end of the chapter, same as Tobi looked at Madara in coffin when Kabuto showed him.
the idea of Usopp repeating the God Usopp incident and getting recognized as the most dangerous in the group for incidentally defeating an elder is JUST PERFECT
Usopp somehow stepping up to SMASH Saturns pride would absolutely be the most satisfying thing I can possibly imagine 8:57
honestly my headcannon is easily that alot of characters do have haki even though we aren't specifically told / shown that they have haki, sorta like how we didn't see that lucci have haki because oda didn't show us specifically
it's like oda favours a diverse crew more and he'd rather focus more on the unique powers of his crew, franky has his robots / cyborg powers, robin recently got her demonic upgrade and adding haki to these things would maybe muddy the whole conversation behind it more and devolve it from people talking about robins unique power to a conversation around "hakilevels"
it's like you can't get away with not giving luffy and zoro haki and you can't get away with not giving sanji haki because he's portrayed as a rival to zoro
because it literally does not make sense that the most observant women who lived 2 entire decades being constantly hunted while being successful in evading them somehow never developped obsrervation haki
it just doesn't make any sense even if we consider a possibility where maybe her having her devilfruit would have limited her observation haki development because she didn't need to learn it if her devilfruit was already doing that same job kinda
I agree about the elders, they seem to have been underestimated because it was gear 5 they were fighting but now we see Warcury compared to an attack that does not ignore basic logic and he's bonkers.
In addition to Usopp being knowledgeable about spiders, Robin is also there, who after breaking Black Marias back, has experience fighting Spider-People
Speaking of Usopp against Saturn; what if his attacks are most efficient against the five elders? Vegas punk did mentioned that devil fruits weakness is the mother nature and Usopps attacks are all plants. Feel like it's gonna be like Obito against sage mode
It's probably that the metal Franky upgraded himself and his shogun with is strong enough to stand up to some base haki users.
And his Radical Beam is basically Kizaru's light beam attack, and that's what he used to finish of Sasaki, as well as damage Saturn.
I will say even tho it would be great for ussop to have his grand brave moment here, it would also be a great spot to have him have one horrible last moment of cowardice that either almost or does end in some sort of disaster or someone he cares about getting hurt, then the shame of that and wanting to get better is what steels him for the journey to understanding true bravery he could have on elbaf, maybe mentored in bravery and what it is by both elbafs culture overall in which courage is seen as basically the ultimate thing to aspire to, and or by one of the giants he already looks up to or by a new giant. Bc ultimately bravery and courage isn’t not being afraid of something, it’s being scared stiff but still choosing to push forward anyway, and im not sure ussop quite fully understands that entire concept yet. What do y’all think of this?
THat "because I'm a little BI-" line had me dieing LOL
People are quick to say Warcury puts Kaido to shame, and the comparison feels intentional, but remember that Warcury already got exploded and had to regenerate. It seems like a specific defense he can use.
That attack was from another gorosei
Also, my interpretation of where the ancient robot was at the end of 1111 mirrors the idea of this being a setting chapter as was discussed, so it’s not unreasonable to think that the giant awakening is taking place at the same time as everything else and is just split between 1111 and 1112
to be fair with the whole haki vs non haki thing, the way I see it is that Haki provides you with effectively a suit of armor that can shield you from harm. But that doesn't magically mean that any non-haki based damage is rendered null and void. I think that even if you took a powerful haki wielder and dropped them from orbit, they'd still be in for a rough time. Essentially my point being that while it is harder to harm a haki wielder without haki, it is not impossible if you're able to just overpower your opponent with raw damage. Haki is only as strong as your willpower, and while normally that means the person with greater willpower wins, it can also mean that if your willpower isn't great enough, someone could just damage you through your haki regardless.
Its wierd how calm and reserved all the gorosei are compared to Marcus who is acting like a crackhead
I have a different interpretation to the little skit after he hit big boar guy. Now that lufy fully manifested the toon force in g5 he is suddenly aware that it is not normal for your giant punch to catch on fire when you are in base form. He looked like he was reacting to his hand being on fire. Lufy is just that dense, he just noticed.
