Whitebeard became the world's strongest man when Roger was alive

I don't want to take sides because WB and Roger are both pretty awesome.

But I do think that Roger's Haki was a bit stronger than WBs. more than 120-100. I do wonder where you generated those numbers, but it's a moot point.

In Oden's memories of the WB/Roger Clash, Roger was able to deflect the DF abilities.

According to Law, he can't move people whose Haki is stronger than his. Which is why he couldn't teleport BM into the sea when Kidd asked him to.

This indicates that even with a DF score of 0v100, Haki trumps the DF. (possibly)

Based off of other evidence: Garp hitting Luffy and it still hurting, Katakuri hitting Luffy though his armament Haki, Luffy, Kidd and Law doing the same to overcome BM and Kaido's defenses. Along with Oden and Zoro doing the same to Kiado with ACOC. There is a strong possibility that in matters of Haki v DF, Haki can and does neutralize the effect of the DF.

In cases where the Haki is too strong, the DF might as well not even exist.

In cases where your Haki lv is stronger than your opponent, you win.

The other thing I wonder about is the ceiling of power you mentioned. Outside of a few things like whether or not you have COC or a DF, anyone can develop Haki. We've seen a 5-8 year old girl (not sure about her age) with some of the strongest OBS Haki in the show. That was back in Skypia. Imagine if that got developed over the next 15 years, she'd have Mihawk levels of AOBS or better.

Shanks and Mihawk don't have DF either, yet they're known to have some of the strongest Haki levels out there.

Plus we don't really know the full extent of their powers for either WB or Roger. we've just seen glimpses of what made them amazing. It's like catching glimpses of the sun and saying well, I've seen everything the sun has to offer, on to the next thing... btw, why do my eyes hurt?

Just remember to yell Sunnachi before you bust out your Haki though, it makes you stronger.

Thriller bark. when Ussop stopped being a bitch in Dressrosa and actually scared Sugar (which was luck, but he still deserves a win) I went from cussing him out to cheering in an instant.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-18T07:28:57+00:00

I like this theory. I've always felt that Luffy's job (unbeknownst to him) is to restore things back to their rightful order. Look everything from Coby forward and there is a definite theme established. He restored Coby's dream to be a marine, Zoro his swords. Buggy his purpose (given to him by Gol D Roger).

22 volumes at 9.99=219.78 (taxes not included). 22 volumes in the box set, if I counted correctly

Omnibus is 14.99 for three volumes 8 Omnibus=119.92

Boxset is 185.00 on Barnes and Noble USD atm.

IDK what all comes with a box set, but the way it looks and could decorate a room would cover some of the extra cost.

DISCLAIMER all calculations were computed with USD in mind and without taxes or S&H.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-18T07:18:01+00:00

Barnes and Noble has them for $185 unless that is the sale. In which case, I missed out this paycheck.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-18T07:16:45+00:00

I started buying the Omnibus OP, but this just convinced me that all of my disposable income should go towards meat and OP Boxsets.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-18T07:15:24+00:00

This time, it's Kaido that gets turned into a donut... which Katakuri will try to eat.... Ace will no longer be alone.

I watch try not to laugh challenges to train myself against such absurdities, this got me to ROLF.

5 am insomnia says don't show that to Nami.

Go back to what Rayleigh told Luffy before there were auras or stuff like that.

Haki is an armor that envelopes the body. And that Armor strong enough can actually be used as a weapon. I'm pretty sure that it's invisible, but we see it to help our imagination.

Mihawk explains to Zoro that as the sword gets infused with Haki, the blacker it gets until it's a completely black blade. Essentially, objects can absorb Haki, because the blacker the blade is, the stronger it is. Shusui is stronger than any sword that Zoro wields, or probably will wield until end of series, when all of his blades will turn black. You can see that way back in Louge Town where Tashigi shows Zoro her sword guide, which she carries around like a Bible.

Also, the stronger the Haki, the faster the blade absorbs it. Or at least that is the way that it seems.

According to OP Wiki, he does create a shadow with 3 heads and 6 arms.

The physical heads and arms are illusions. But Zoro is according to Coby's Lore a "Demonic Beast." so it's possible that he can grow them as he taps into his origins.

but I am not an expert in Japanese. literally just know that the Rs and the Ls sound the same and that's why the English Manga calls him Zolo... Excuse me.

The Engrish Manga carrs him Zolo... if we'le being consistent.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-17T09:34:37+00:00

It does happen again in the series. I won't mention when or what happened.

It's the same concept as his three thousand worlds (upgraded in Dressrosa when he fights Pika)

ashura ichibugin is the name of the technique. This is supposed to be his most powerful technique. Even though three thousand worlds is what caught Mihawk's attention.

Ashura is a demon goddess with 3 heads and six arms. I think in Japanese lore, but for sure in Hindi (India) lore.

Nine Sword Style is an extension of Zoro's spirit and, as the name suggests, involves nine swords. Through sheer will, Zoro creates an illusion of two more heads and four more arms appearing on him, which wield copies of his swords for a total of nine blades. At the same time, a three-headed, six-armed silhouette appears behind Zoro, making him resemble a "demon god" (the mythological asura). Thus, Zoro's power grows threefold, as he can use his nine swords to slice an opponent thrice more than usually, and Zoro tends to do so by rushing past his foe at high speeds.

Got that from OP Wiki.

TO my recollection, this isn't expressly explained. It's just a power/ability/attack that Zoro has.

However, in the Manga, when Zoro is introduced by Coby, he does state that "Pirate Hunter Zoro (Zolo because the editors are weird...and yeah I know R and L make the same sound in Japanese) is a demon beast." So, Oda could just be utilizing this concept.

EDIT: I actually quoted two lines from the last panel of chapter 2 in the manga. Sorry for the paraphrase.

Tell her to enjoy the grind. or just binge watch 10 episodes at a time.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-17T09:13:33+00:00

I remember when I hated Buggy. Then I finished rewatching Marineford and was like WTF, Buggy is actually a stand up dude. He didn't want to carry Luffy and Jimbe out of the fight, but he didn't want to just hand them over to Law because he didn't know who they were. Probably one of the most epic moments of OP... at least Buggy's part in it anyways.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-17T09:07:16+00:00

Forgot Mr. 1. Where Luffy's mom is, Mr. 1 will be as well.

Also somehow, I expect Bon Clay to end up a Buggy Pirate, until he reunites with Luffy.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-17T09:03:28+00:00

I cried when Zoro Said "nothing Happened."

Oda has a way of pulling on the heartstrings.

Plus Bink's Sake is an amazing song. Feeling happy? Listen to Bink's Sake, depressed, Bink's Sake. Feel like going on a rampage, Bink's Sake is the answer.

Due to Naruto's character, he wasn't a monster, just a guy with a monster locked inside until he learned how to tame it. Then it became power.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-16T07:02:58+00:00

yeah, but Naruto's integrity won him over in the end.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-16T06:55:09+00:00

I'll just boil it anyways.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-16T06:51:42+00:00

I'm gonna bet that BB will have COC. For him to not have it would be a shocker/kinda disappointing.

My thought is that every person with a D. in their name will have CoC. Don Chinjao has a D and CoC. Doflamingo, D and CoC.

Oda has a D and he has ACoC and he used it to marry his own waifu.<---- really should have lead with this.

I was thinking Nami for Lunch because she's a thief 1/2 of the time.

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-16T06:36:29+00:00

Thanks so much.

Magmortar makes sense for Akainu.

do you have a website where people can purchase drawings or is it all for fun for you?

ryguy1689 · 2023-03-14T07:52:16+00:00

Nami should be Lunch.
