Speculations What is King's secret power?

[Patryipe]

So King is pulling off some crazy feats against Zoro.

He protected himself from Tatsumaki with his wings and took no apparent damage.

Spoiler

Remeber that this is an attack that is strong enough to cut Kaido's scales.

Spoiler

Part of it is due to the toughness of ancient zoan, which has already been highlighted throughout the arc, but King has something else he adds on top.

Spoiler

It seems the mistery is related to his lunarian traits

Spoiler

Now, while Zoro says he never saw him flying while in human form, he did seems to be able to do that while fighting Sanji.

Spoiler

It is also interesting to notice that while he was in hybrid form there was no flame on his back (posting only one panel, but it is missing in all of them)

Spoiler

And yet when he went back to his human form at the end of the chapter the flame was immediately back

Spoiler

It also seems that his monster defense probably needs to be activated to work, and it is not something that is on all the time since we saw Zoro drawing blood with Oni Giri.

Spoiler

Are the fire stuff and the durability boost connected?

Are they two separate abilities?

What's going on here?

Discuss the abilities of the strongest yonko commander.


EDIT: Next part: here!

I don't like it.

Basically another Marco.

Come on, I hope Oda is more creative here.

 

[BornInAbyss]

King himself says he is on a different level than a dragon. King is in secret the real captain of the crew

Add your thoughts bitches!

Well, if you think about it Marco and King have a lot of paralleles , both birds , both use fire , both are YC1 , it could be a different type of immortality

I mean, it's nice. King as an Angel of Retribution is sick.

But I hope Oda goes for something else which is more unique.

I like @Sentinel thought about a mix up between Adv CoA+his flame who push up his durability.
Or a the flames healing up the wounds.

 

[RecoomeBoom]

I'm guessing the fire is what gives him flight and fuels his regeneration. The wings are just extensions of his armor and weapons.

Zoro will cut the fire to bring him down and fight him equally.

King is straight up immortal , he dislodged his head and grew a new one

Zoro talked about a beam though, not something physical like a projectile. Plus I doubt pteranodons could regrow their heads lol.

 

[Garp the Fist]

I’ll just put what I thought on the chapter thread

.

As for what King is and why he’s so tough- a dragon/human? Like a Fishman and a Mink, but for Dragons?
-he’s got extremely tough skin, something dragons are noted for
-he can create fire and fly, with Zoro implying he’s not flying using his wings. Maybe he‘s actually doing what Kaido and Momo do?
-his attacks are all royal themed, and dragon’s usually represent royalty
-would explain the Celestial Dragon’s obsession with them- maybe they killed the Lunarians, stole their land, but took their dragon motif as a way of legitimising them?

Dunno, seems like Oda wants us to be able to guess what the deal is with the info we’ve been given. The dragon idea doesn’t fit with the moon relation though, unless there’s a moon/dragon legend I’ve overlooked.

 

[traxex123]

It turns out king is acttually kaido and kaido is just king

 

[ShinichiMugi]

He is an alien

 

[Kurozumi Giggio]

The word "beam" could have been a translation liberty , the way oda depicts Lasers beams is far different , regrowing his head is a race ability , i mention that in the the theory

there is no regeneration so far
zoro just cant cut him

 

[Kurozumi Giggio]

no Zoro mentioned that even toh he cut him several times he's not bleeding
