Kaku could semi fly too. Didnt stop oda from pairing zoro up with him.
And also zoro is also able to produce fire. Did it against ryuuma and did it with his long ranged flying attack again kaido which big mom told him to dodge
I've been on King train since day-1. Zoro is supposed to be too strong for your average YC-1, so I thought King will get to fight a heavily nerfed Zoro. But Oda apparently intends to make it a fair fight.

Of course it does from a narrative point of view as Oda is forcing the reader to suspend their disbelief in order to keep the concept of a humble Luffy who set sail in order to achieve his dream, even though he's:
1) Wearing the Straw Hat that belonged to Roger and is linked to something the head of the World Government keeps hidden.
2) The son of the most wanted criminal in the world, the grandson of the Navy's hero and Roger's known rival, the brother of both Roger's son plus commander of Whitebeard and the Revolutionary Army's second in command.
3) More than likely the future Joy Boy, which could have been acceptable if Oda didn't include the whole hideous prophecy referred during Oden's flashback, as now he isn't simply achieving something but what he is "written in the stars".
And now a prodigy in Cipher Pol was incarcerated because he lost an incredibly precious fruit that happened to be eaten by him.
The power of the fruit is literally irrelevant here, I'm talking about something way more transcendental than that. Luffy can "work his ass off" as much as he wants, but the whole character is currently built on destiny and an unbelivable amount of links to the elite of the world in every possible way. I'm not buying it anymore because his character is engulfing the complexity of the world and that's the issue here that completely unsuspends the disbelief, not the fruit's strength nor how many of Luffy's achievements will be earned (which is up to debate because, to begin with, what we're witnessing right now, Kaido's defeat, was bound to happen by the hands of the pirates coming to the New World "twenty years into the future", which instantly erases any possibility for other contenders to take his head and therefore diminishes what Luffy is going to achieve by taking him down).
If you like this, good for you. I simply can't stand it and absolutely takes me off the story to see that everything related to Luffy needs to be important. The very fact of his straw hat, which is a symbol of infancy and humbleness, being turned into something so incredibly transcendental is proof enough of what I'm saying.
Post automatically merged:
Gomu Gomu is special as it was important enough to put the Rob Lucci of his era, who was assigned to guard it, in jail for a decade (and more if not for Teach).
Oh. Yeah I literally went over those same things as they were brought up in another post. I guess I get curious about what pushes readers too far with their suspension of disbelief sometimes also, but then it's not like people stop reading or anything.
I'm laughing at reading some users arguing that the Gomu Gomu isn't necessarily special and that it may have been just eaten by a top figure in the past, as if the problem here was the fruit itself being utterly powerful or something like that instead of the narrative behind turning everything around Luffy into a "coincidental" link to the elite of this universe.
Oda has being doing this ever since chapter 1 when Luffy got the straw hat!Shounnen main characters are always destined to be something!Luffy is a free man,but his nature is to be a great liberator because of his D. bloodline!It is who he was born to be!
No worry nobody going to take the feats away with Zoro get against Kaido.
But im be honest, I didn´t really want King vs Sanji since the raid start, my headcanon was always on King vs Zoro, I expect that we get a good battle between these. Im just happy that Zoro is not out and still can fight someone in a great 1on1 battle, even though I didn´t expect for Oda to use "senzu beans".

he lost a fruit that gives devil power to the ENEMY PIRATE SHIP. Jimbei was imprisoned for not wanting to take part in war, cp9 ran for their life after enies lobby incident they were being chased by wg and were begging for their life
