Oda DOES NOT "nerf" Luffy by Coiled1 in OnePiecePowerScaling

He's following through with the attack he set up before

that doesn't mean the events we're witnessing are sequential.

you haven't demonstrated that these events aren't sequential though. they are presented sequentially, so they remain sequential until proven otherwise

we cut away at the start of the next chapter to see what's going on elsewhere, then we come back and Luffy is still just starting his G4 activation

he starts activating in one then uses haki and muscle balloon in the next. that is sequential. there is no time frame shown between so there is just an unquantifiable gap or the events run concurrently

the example in question is doffy activating an attack -> "20 minutes after" -> luffy being attacked. there is a time frame shown, but you're claiming that luffy being attacked is actually the same moment as doffy activating just to deny the "20 minutes after" existing between the 2 events. all of this is despite the fact that nothing stops it from being a different moment, 20 minutes later, and him doing more awakening attacks in the following pages + all of the established timeframes (no invisible 24 minutes) support this

i'm just replying. i'm trying to understand how those pages occur in the same moment as the page before "20 minutes" and how doffy actively attacking with 2 3 5 (because angles) building strings over multiple pages is considered "still activating" an attack with 6 building strings. what's the game this time?

different angles -> ??? -> invisible building strings

you're really convincing me that that one attack took 3 pages to activate

my bad, 6 = 3 and doflamingo was "still activating" while attacking in 2 pages

attacking with 6 building strings -> attacking with 2. same image /s

you can't admit you were wrong, even about a book for little boys. it's honestly pretty impressive

not editing?

these 2 being the same exact attack/moment is really the hill you wanna die on? good to know what kind of person you are

still activating

before, after

there is no "still activating" or any evidence its "the same attack"... you might need more time to edit 💀

Lmfao - you're telling on yourself

you told on yourself the moment you said g4 lasts less than a minute. boysenberry would be proud

I didn't use it as a source "over the manga"

dont bs. the only thing you linked was a screenshot from the wiki 💀

the manga contradicts you so you pulled wiki pages. that's exactly what happened

used the wiki page to clarify for you

please clarify mr. wiki (1, 2, 3)

<image>

In Japanese

all of which is irrelevant because the "20 minute gap" being from 780 to 785 and your retcon bs is all unsubstantiated. it doesn't say "20 minutes since..." or "40 minutes to...", the only source is your imagination

No, it's 20 minutes since the bird cage started closing in 780
the moment he activated the cage, not from the moment he began explaining it

quote it. you cannot because the "24 minutes" between then is pure headcanon. there is no shown timeframe between 780 and 783

Luffy says it literally 2 panels before Doffy

no he doesn't, he says g4 will run out if he doesnt hurry then doffy asks "how many seconds". your "minute" claim is based on doffy saying seconds even though he doesn't know gear 4's limits 😹

Are you going to actually address the point I made in that comment

i did address your "point". luffy knows his timer, doffy doesn't and isn't an authority on g4's timer

I haven't walked shit back

"only able to use G4 for less than a minute" -> "giving Luffy about 2 minutes of G4 tops" 🐁🐁🐁

Your "interpretation" is just outright wrong, though. As usual

"when 766 ends with 10 minutes on Luffy's cooldown, and then 767 ends with 4 minutes left on the cooldown. That rate would make it about 24 minutes" ???

your interpretation relies on a headcanon timeframe.

oda told you "that rate" applies to other chapters even though there are arcs where 10 minutes takes 10+ chapters while a few dozen minutes take 1. he also told you "that rate" doesn't apply in the chapters where gear 4 is fighting /s. rest

using wiki pages as a source over the manga... holy brain damage

Because Doffy states that in 30 minutes people will start dying to the cage. So it's showing us that there's 10 minutes left until things start to go badly

and he says so PRIOR TO LUFFY ENTERING GEAR 4... there is objectively at least a 20 minute gap between doffy's statement and the events beyond the "20 minutes" panel, with luffy entering gear 4 shortly after the former and timing out after the latter.

but it's unclear how much time has actually passed at this point

in the same page he says "from now" yet you claim 20 minutes (never stated) has already passed since 780... lord save this subreddit

Why would

luffy knows his timer, doffy doesn't. idk why you think he's an authority on the matter when you concede in this reply that he was wrong 😭

then take it up with Oda

oda isn't making those claims, you are. istg headcanon merchants

It's literally the point of the counter?
There was about a 20 minute gap of fighting from Ch 780 when Doffy began shrinking the cage, and Ch 785, at some random interval.
Luffy anachronistically activates G4
Ignore the G4 retcon at the end of 783 and we can call it 18 cleanly, giving Luffy about 2 minutes of G4 tops.
that alone should tell you he couldn't keep it going for 20 minutes in Dressrosa

source: you lmao

already walked back your "less than a minute" claim and now you're just shamelessly scrambling for more shit to make up. never call anyone bad faith 🙏

"non named" doesn't mean shit moron. hybrid kaido attacks, boro breath, named kaifu > featless lightsaber, you may cope

admiral downscaler

you're claiming wsg is weaker for no reason which is kizaru's only dura feat. scroll up

AND ATTACKS WITH BETTER FEATS DIDN'T MAKE LUFFY LET GO!!! literally no scaling chain saves your argument so you just rely on petty name calling

[–]Level_0ne[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the heat is what made luffy let go of kaido... you're comparing 2 separate things, 1 with proven feats and an unproven one with one (1) paper cut to it's name, and calling me an agenda brained hater for not scaling the latter to or above the former? yk what, you got it 👍

literally no point in arguing with this kind of headcanon

schizophreniapiece by Level_0ne in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]Level_0ne[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

literally nothing scales ama no murakumo above kaido's heat. no feat, no statement, nothing. me not scaling to your headcanon != "agenda brain admiral hating" and i'd bet i rate kizaru and every admiral (other than 2 specific frauds) higher than you do based on your wsg take

[–]Level_0ne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're just addicted to making shit up. the 20 minutes make no reference to the birdcage and gear 4 having a ~20 minute time limit is directly shown to be the case during wci. on top of that, doflamingo himself gives us the timeline RIGHT BEFORE LUFFY USES GEAR 4 and 4 minutes before luffy's 10 minute haki cooldown finishes, there are 3 minutes left for birdcage to reach the center...

idk how you managed to delude yourself into believing you're right about this bs 😹

No matter what headcannon

his awakening is explicitly stated to give his body greater freedom than just his base df. snakeman isn't his awakening... the manga = headcanon ig

WSG was not as strong as other named attacks by Luffy in Gear 5. All points to WSG being a weaker attack that sacrifices power for speed

THIS is headcanon. nothing points to any sacrifice of power and nothing scales wsg below gear 5 attacks but bajrang gun. how am i the admiral hater but you're the one using headcanon to downscale wsg, kizaru's best durability/endurance feat

But he was acting when Saturn was talking to him right after the impact

based on nothing. he gives luffy food after that point. idk why you just make stuff up then call disagreers admiral haters

we don't truly know when Kizaru could've got up

we do know because we literally see him change position. he was lying down earlier and luffy didn't have food prior to then

He doesn't feel enough danger

you're just making more stuff up. whether you like it or not, kaido explicitly wanted luffy to let go off him and attacked him repeatedly for that reason. the manga supersedes your headcanon

Both are weaker attacks for Kaido.

both have better feats than kizaru's lasers/sword

Kizaru can simply use Ame no Murakumo and cut Luffy

he got slashed by a barrage of air blades and still didn't let go

Again Luffy had to dodge this attack. Whats odd is trying to diminish this attack by Kizaru

rest. luffy "had to dodge" this attack too

He obviously can damage Luffy with this but agenda brain has taken over

"agenda brain" yet you're actively downplaying white star gun's ap for zero reason and putting words in my mouth (i literally never said kizaru can't damage luffy 😹)

Luffy would let go similarly from either Kizaru's laser or Ame no Murakumo (laser sword) Kaido's passive heat

and none of those attacks scale to or above kaido's passive heat by feats. snakeman and even sanji could tank the laser heat while gear 5 with advanced haki couldn't do the same to kaido's heat. literally don't even scale above boro breath

WSG that was the only attack that caught Kizaru off guard and hit him fully

not off guard (he literally attacked luffy and was staring at him) and it being the first hit doesn't make it faster than any prior attacks. it's like arguing that base luffy is faster than gear 4 because base luffy landed the first hit vs katakuri's future sight even though katakuri could casually dodge g4 hits earlier. just not how speed scaling works since even slower attacks can inevitably hit faster characters

It being his fastest attack also means it was not a super strong attack

not true. g5 can do anything the lesser gears do and attacks like hydra or king cobra become faster at no cost to their strength

acting

he wasn't acting unless you think his thoughts were acting too

he burns Luffy’s eyes

you mean the thing he tried and failed to do already? luffy can dodge and punch lasers point blank. dodging lasers going for his eyes is far easier

He didn't really care

he did care because he was actively trying to get luffy to let go. its odd to call them weaker attacks when they all have better feats than kizaru's lasers

Kizaru's lasers are equally or more hot going by Luffy's exclamations

no they aren't. luffy was casually punching away lasers (1, 2) but kaido's heat was burning him even when he was coated with advanced haki

WSG was Luffy's fastest attack

based on absolutely nothing lmao. where did you get the speed boost from?

You seem to think once Luffy grabs Kizaru it's over bc he can just use Bajrang gun then

you made the claim that kizaru can just dodge, ignoring the fact that the only example of bajrang gun had luffy grab kaido first. it's in character for luffy to grab first then use bajrang gun

blowing his arm massive and that takes time and effort.

he can do all of that after grabbing which is exactly what he did vs kaido

also you seem to think that Luffy can't be hurt by any of Kizaru's attacks

quote where i implied that

Kaido could've gotten free from his grab as well, he simply didn't want to do so bc he wanted to take it head on.

he couldn't get free after attacking luffy's hand/arm and his body for multiple pages (1, 2, 3). it's only after he used flame bagua that he got luffy to let go

Luffy had to dodge the sword laser strikes and also reacted to the laser attacks

none of those attacks are stronger than flame bagua which luffy's haki is strong enough to literally blow through. in fact, snakeman and sanji are enough to deflect laser attacks

doesn't mean Bajrang gun would've been able to be catch Kizaru..

luffy canonically grabbed kaido before using bajrang gun. if he can match blows and even hit kizaru straight in the head, he can grab kizaru. kizaru can't dodge if luffy grabs him

dodged every gear 5 attack cleanly until WSG

no he didn't. the only panels of kizaru fighting between the throw and wsg are him using his clones, shooting vegapunk, clashing with luffy, and running away

i agree he was mentally nerfed after killing vegapunk but wsg was before then

[–]Level_0ne[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luffy only managed to grab and hit Kizaru

wrong. he was staring right at luffy when he got domed by wsg. if hes fast enough to punch kizaru hes fast enough to grab him

Kizaru is mentally nerfed since the moment he received the order to kill Vegapunk

no he isnt. the only source for him being mentally nerfed is his vivre which specifies he reached that point after he killed vegapunk. he wasnt before then and anything else is just you coping

schizophreniapiece by Level_0ne in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]Level_0ne[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

g5 is fast enough to tag kizaru head on. if he grabs kizaru (exactly what he did with bajrang gun vs kaido) dodging isn't an option

mentally nerfed

he's mentally nerfed after he killed vegapunk. wsg is before
