>>
>>289324623
my theory is this
for all the talk of how luffy is still vulnerable to stab and cut wounds, it's only partially true
yes he still gets punctured and severed like anyone else
but his organs and bodily material are still "rubbery"
if rubber is still attached to itself it tends to retract even partially around a rupture
so his wounds my tend to "retract" on themselves to minimize damage
there's also the notion of his organs and other vitals stretching or compacting out of the way to minimize damage or reduce an impact
and of course considering the reality of his devil fruit, one more bullshit notion becomes possible
luffy doesn't understand enough about his own body to know how badly he should've been hurt, so he wasn't
>>
>>289325594
>Still think it’s Zoro and Sanji defeating Holy Knights that makes Imu retreat and declare war on Straw Hats
I'm still on team Usopp + Ragnir saving the day
>>
>>289321499
>Jinbei casually blocks Imu's killing intent Maki fire bombs
>>
So are his flames the same as Big Moms homies?
>>
>>289325649
Why not? Mihawk has stated that Luffy’s ability of people rallying around him to even up the massive power gap is impressive. Talk of Sanji and Zoro becoming wings of the Pirate King. Why not be at Elbaf where the legend is created

You know what I think my problem with the Yonko is?

All of their controversy could be avoided if the characters who defeat them weren't then given the title of Yonko afterwards. Oda makes it very clear that characters like Big Mom or Kaido weren't just strong, but that strength was literally all they knew since birth. They literally came out of the womb strong. That's not the case for people like Luffy or Teach, so it feels awkward to compare their feats to the previous Yonko.

They should have just been given the title "Yonko-Slayer"and be done with it.
>>
>>289324680
>Where do you get this "lost sight" thing from? There's no visual cue for that. Luffy's still looking straight ahead and not trying to find him
Are you illiterate? He literally replied to Imu "same here" when the latter was talking about the visibility, how the hell would that make sense if he wasnt staring at Imu?

Personally I think his strongest form is his zoan form (because of his flaming bagua).

>>289327554
Why would it be the strongest? It's halfway through the human and dragon forms, it's just that the human shape allows him to use his human fighting style. But pure powelevel, obviously the dragon mogs.

Gunko rebelling (somewhat) due to Brook + Zoro and/or Sanji killing their opponents will weaken Imu enough for Hybrid Loki to deal the final blow, sending him back to the Holy Land.

She was likely just more agile/had greater agility when she wasn't a bloated old hag who's spent half a century being pregnant as opposed to being strictly out of her prime by Onigoshima, that she apparently was never really being challenged in a fight since she was in her 20s+her development into more of a political schemer made her take actual training to a backseat and become more passive when she could've solved things by getting involved personally, if anything she was out of her political prime instead of her physical prime given that she was getting more and more insane as time went on.

>>289327554
Kaido's full zoan form is clearly strong but Kaido wasn't very agile in it, while his hybrid allowed him to keep up with Gear 5+allow him to use his normal fighting style. I guess the question on if you think Kaido has a full normal mastery of his DF or if he really isn't in tune with the natural instincts of the Azure Dragon zoan and instead can only use certain things seen with Awakened zoan users when stinking drunk.

Surely Joyboy has an actual name but his close friends and even Imu refer to him as that. Either this is his actual name or just a nickname he and everyone prefers. Could just be Oda hiding his real name until we get his and Imu’s flashback.

Yeah, a PK+ character should be around twice as strong as the oldgen. Sounds very crazy powercreep... but Imu is like 10 times stronger anyway.

That said, I think it would be fair to put DR Xebec and HK Harald at the top of the PK+ tier instead, It will depend on how strong Luffy becomes after Elbaf.

Joyboy was the prince of the Great Kingdom, uses "Joyboy" to hide his royal identity. Emeth also mentioned that they failed to make Joyboy King.

Imu was someone issolated from the rest of the world, that is why he talks in such a weird way, maybe he is from the Moon, who knows, but Joyboy discovered where he was and saved him.

I also think think Joyboy and Imu swaped headpieces, Joyboy gave his crown to Imu and Imu gave his Strawhat to Joyboy.
>>
>>289329799
There's nothing else for Imu to do. There's a clear mission on Elbaf and he's on a timer. If no one's fighting him, he has to go help Sommers or Killingham and that's just not happening. Luffy is also surrounded by his nakama eager to help. So it's really either Imu getting an AIDS attack or someone new jumping to fight him (or Luffy still being able to fight 'cause reasons).
>>
>>289331551
Imu was one of the 20 kings. They might have simply both been royalty. The call could have just been them both randomly getting on their fathers' den den mushis.

Shanks is the wild card there for a few reasons.

1. The giants couldn't tell who's haki was stronger between Joyboy and Shanks. The haki was enough to give Imu PTSD. If we assume Joyboy dumped a full power blast into it, Shanks could be in the running for defeating Imu as he'd be close in power to Joyboy, at least in haki. If Joyboy just put some haki into that blast and Imu only got scared because he recognized it as Joyboy's, then Shanks wouldn't be Imu level

2. Shanks captured Loki, showing he has battle power. If Shanks captured Loki alone, he'd have battle power to put up a fight against Imu as Imu is struggling against an injured Loki and just had to target his chest wound, which we were told would hold Loki back and take months to heal. If he teamed on him with his crew or the capturing was part of the lie about Loki to protect Harald's reputation, then no.
3. Shanks has the swordsmanship of the pirate king. When we saw Roger use a divine departure on Oden he did it one handed. So if Roger did that against Oden to hold back and it's a two handed move, then Shanks would be lacking in battle power as a one handed man. If Divine Departure is legitimately just a one handed move, then Shanks wouldn't be lacking battle power if he trained his other arm to be dominant.

Basically, whether or not Shanks has the battle power, swordsmanship, and haki to take on Imu is a string of "ifs".

I'm telling you all. Luffy isn't even at his todo su potencial. He's still a boy, he need to become un hombre in order to become stronger. He needs to do the oldest yet most important from of entrenamiento (According to men).
¡El entrenamiento del pene! This will terminate his stamina issues and his body will reach nuevos niveles del poder! Imu do pene training everyday for at least 800 years old and look how strong he is!
>>
>>289333523
Okay well >>289333518 answered the divine departure question for me, Roger single hands it so Shanks didn't lose any battle power by losing an arm.

So it's a question of whether Shanks actually has Joyboy tier haki or not and if that's enough to beat Imu, if he actually had the battle power to defeat Loki or if that was a lie/cheat, and if a devil fruit is needed to put Imu down or if Joyboy haki alone could do it, or at least slow the regen down enough to put make Imu incapable of fighting.

I'd say Blackbeard and Shanks together would take down Imu though, Shanks as battle power and Whitebeard to weaken him and destroy his powers.
>>
>>289333620
I had one theory that Blackbeard gets the original age age fruit from Ginny's body because Bonney just has some passed down version of it, he becomes the black nika the giants feared in the MMAs, and ages up the seraphim after having Devon capture them.

They're attacking Saturn's body, possessed by Imu, which can regenerate because it has a small fraction of Imu's power in the first place. One of the silliest takes to come out of the current sequence is that Imu in his own body is unable to regenerate, even though all his subordinates can do it because they share a small fraction of his power.

Okay so basically in a few weeks Urouge will show up from the heaven realm and save Luffy from Imu. You see after fighting Cracker he went to balloon terminal to have a training arc where he practiced Advanced Armament for bypassing defense to get past crackers scales.

His next stop was the moon, he took the balloon terminal there and encountered his old enemy from Birkan, Enel. Except Enel and Urouge both became Lunarians up there. Well Urouge was able to bloom his haki against god form lunarian Enel and block his lightning with advanced Conquerors and advanced armament, and after a hard fought battle Imu came out on top. He learns from Enel that he was defeated by Luffy, that Luffy is the sun god that Urouge worships and how Luffy stopped Enel from destroying Skypiea like he did with Birkan when Urouge was the strong sky knight that opposed him, and learns some ancient history and that he needs to train to save the world. This moon arc all took place during Wano.

So Urouge actually got Enel to join his crew and they returned to Birkan which is in the heaven realm, and Enel taught Urouge about the secret Bifrost dimension outside space and time. You see the Adam Tree is the high summit of the west mentioned by Gan Fall that people use to reach Skypiea that ISN'T knock up stream, it's like the bifrost of the Yggasadril, which the branches are said to expand through the heavens (sky island)

So basically Urouge has been training outside space and time with Enel in THAT place and learned about god awakening devil fruits from Enel, and is about to make his triumphant return to the series by saving Luffy and taking on Enel. This will inevitably lead to the second timeskip training arc of the series, where the strawhats train in the dimension outside space time for a long period of time, and come back way stronger.

Urouge will he the lunarian from the Elbaf mural.

This. Luffy is doing worse than Loki. Shanks caught Loki and has Joyboy tier haki. Imu is scared of the same haki blast the giants couldn't tell apart from Joyboy.

Meanwhile Rayleigh in old age is equal to Shanks in haki (per Oda, picrel) despite haki going down in age, according to Garp. So prime Rayleigh would be even stronger, and Gaban confirmed Roger strongest in crew so Roger would be even stronger than that.

Garp fights Roger barehanded despite him having a supreme blade. So basically the old Gen in their primes are way stronger than the current Gen and Imu still. This can be confirmed by Roger tossing an opponent that got the better of Kaido away with one hand like he was garbage to straight for whitebeard, as easily as Imu defeated Zoro who also scarred and clashed with Kaido. Or his equal Whitebeard even in cancer and old age clashing equally against Shanks and only being yonkou tier in a near death state as opposed to when he used to fight with Roger.

Imu and the yonkou would get fucked by Roger's generation.

Looks at this nigger faggot seething, kek
chapter wasn't good, deal with it, so much so for gear 5th, waiting weeks for luffy to do something just for him to get literally floored by the enemy, sure it's common at this point but it doesn't dismiss the fact that besides the sucker punch on the last chapter he didn't do nothing on this one.
Only some real bullshit to save the day here after being impale, again.
so between the 2 options or Imu the nigger-faggot will succeed in taking the giant children or because of whatever asspull Oda takes at the last second he leaves back to the red line, so basically nothing happens. So your 2 options are nothing happens (no enemy take down, bad route) or lose the fight.

I mean there's several different things you could do with that. For starters Zoro and Ryuma both have one eye and we just learned eye powers exist, maybe Joyboy was the eye patch pirate and a dead eye can gain observation powers equal to the red ringed eye.

Ryuma has a black blade and Zoro has flame rend, maybe a black blade is needed to flame rend black flames.

Maybe Shimotsuki swordsmanships' breath of all things and qi gong/life return come from the same roots and Zoro can learn body control to buff himself up like Lao G and Lucci for a strength buff.

Maybe Joyboy was the fire god and taught it to the Shimotsuki family and Roger family, but Ryuma's swordsmanship got split into pieces and Kinemon had the fire part of it, and Jarul can help fill in the rest.

There's several things.

That's exactly what I'm talking about, Zoro's breathing abilities are very much like the Cypher Pol's Life return/sage shenanigans and Lao G's Qi Gong. Qi Gong in real life is based on breathing techniques. Lao G said his life return gave him resistance against pain and even aging, and buffed himself up.

Well, the Kami-E sage shit that Lucci used to buff himself up also translated to "Life return". And it's interesting because like Lao G and partially Zoro, he can buff himself up or shrink himself down. And like Zoro's "Nothing happened" moment which a Buccaneer Cyborg said would have been enough pain to take even him out, Lucci stayed standing when Zoro slashed him to shreds.

Zoro's used breathing techniques such as against Kaido taking a deep breath then one arm slashing the wind attacks Kaido used away, or also buffing his arms up. I personally thought Zoro was trying to completely master the ability during his fight with Lucci hence why he took so long.

You can see the similarities though, right?

What makes you think Usopp isn't using his? Do you think Usopp should just yell OBSERVATION HAKI ON!!! every time he makes a shot from now on?

>Loki is the Earth God.
>Elbaf mural shows the Nidhogg having a breath battle with a giant serpent as if fighting it, while the Harley texts say "The Earth God raged. The Hellfire serpent raged", this is implication the monster fighting the serpent
My interpretation is that the Earth God was the king of the first world, that gets enraged because of the SunGod appearance. The EarthGod then would be allied with the HellfireSerpent (or maybe, the Serpent is the Earthgod...) and the God of War was allied with Nika.

In this interpretation the EarthGod is clearly Imu. (The world)

Wt this point in the story, basic Haki isn't going to do anything, they're better off sticking to Their Devil Fruits and weird plant ammo

We're just getting the powerset show case from Imu and the 1st loss out of the way. Luffy doesn't seem to understand shit about his powerup yet either. He's landed one sucker punch on the guy and spent the rest running/being blocked.

Not sure what people expected, Imu won last time. We're not at entire world vs Imu yet, prophecy can't be fulfilled yet.
>>
>>289336518
That doesn't explain why Loki didn't get Domi'd though. Can't be MUH COC because Rocks should have been at least as strong as Loki in terms of haki, he fought prime Harald. I figured maybe devil fruit users in general are immune, but you think after 800 years Imu would know that and not be surprised it didn't work. The "It only works in someone's homeland" argument was always retarded, and would have worked on Loki if that were the case. Only thing I can think of is because they're both god fruit users.

>Serpent is the earth god
Read the Harley text, it mentions they both raged. The text you posted says they covered the world in flames, but you clearly see that the Nidhogg is using flames against the serpent, meaning those two are likely the flame users. AKA the Earth God is Nidhogg.

It just makes sense given Nidhogg makes world destroying Earth Quakes and is seen fighting the serpent with flames, when it's mentioned Earth God and Serpent covered the world in flames.

Jinbei blocked Imu's attack unironically better than armament exoskeleton germa man, legendary sword McCoC user, and two god fruit advanced CoC users, one of which is holding a super weapon made of another fucking mythical fruit.

And no, I'm not being ironic.

It's actually because Luffy and Loki are incorruptible by power.

How would you guys feel if:
>it's revealed Fishman karate hard counters the black flam
>Jinbei shoves a suicidal dose of energy steroids in his mouth
>evolves into a great white form just like Hody Jones
>1v1 and kills Imu, using Fishman karate to strike through and destroy his heart and the flames within
>dies of old age after sacrificing himself for the crew

Yeah I also think so.

Jinbe is clearly the king of defense in the strawhat crew.

Jimbe martial arts creates shock waves, these shockwaves caused Imus bombs to detonate before reaching Jimbe and Loki.

I said it years ago when he blocked Big Mom's sword with his barehands and punched her off the ship, and when he stopped Akainu's fire better than the son of the pirate king with a fire devil fruit, and the world's strongest man with a world ending devil fruit.

I said years ago during Wano that Sanji had no way of beating Jinbei because his defense was too great and counters flames, and he could hit through the exoskeleton, and can react to fast opponents with little movements like when he casually tossed Luffy out of gear 2. They laughed but the last chapter proved it.

Neat, so why didn't Luffy just use his own advanced armament to counter those bombs? Is Jinbei a better fighter than Luffy?

>>289321677
I don't know if people are just being contrarian, but this is ten times worse than anything Crocodile dished out. Imu's height alone is turning Luffy into a fucking kebab.

Imu is a Disney princess with the dark little demons being the critters of the princess. That’s why Imu is mainly using them.

>>289336991
What makes you think he didn't try it with his gatling? It clearly overwhelmed him.

>>289336991
Advanced armament doesn't exist anymore it's all CoC these days

>>289336847
Him taking steroids is antithetical to his nature. Plus Chopper already takes pills to power up, so it would be redundant.
>>
>>289336991
It'd be funny as fuck if Omen just can't work on Fishmen and that fuels Imu's racism

eh, now that Luffy is a cartoon clown it doesn't have the same impact

So what will be the next asspull?

there is no way he could do more than what he already did, Imu has been king of the world for 800 years
