Speculations What is King's secret power?

So King is pulling off some crazy feats against Zoro.
He protected himself from Tatsumaki with his wings and took no apparent damage.
Remeber that this is an attack that is strong enough to cut Kaido's scales.
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.
It seems the mistery is related to his lunarian traits
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.
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)
And yet when he went back to his human form at the end of the chapter the flame was immediately back
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.
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.

This would explain why only Marco's initial hit made King bleed and, so far, only Zoro initial Onigiri made King drew blood. His flames allowed him to adapt to Marco's and Zoro's attacks and therefore negate the effects he should have suffered (like damages). This may explain why King was virtually clean after loldiffing Marco and Cook, and why Zoro was wondering how come his attacks didn't hurt King at all. Think Doomsday from DC, but only if King's flames are still burning.
This situation might necessitate Zoro cutting the flames of King's back to put him down for good.

King being able to fly on his human form will probably be a mistake made by Oda just like Kaido also being able to do it since he is lifting Onigashima in all his forms.
About his flame, I believe it is a technique he can use in all forms whenever he wants to.
That bullshit "laser beam" of him is incredibly stupid. How the fuck animals used to hunt that way?

Exactly, which Zoro pointed out
If King was simply Tough to damage, then no need to block with his Wings, his Dinosaur Body will also Tank the attack
So he definitely was protecting something, which was most probably his Fire that doesn't even disappear in his Full Zoan Form
This is convenient cuz Zoro recently learned to Cut Fire, so he will definitely cut King's Fire & Wings to weaken his Defense

Nice. I think we're all in agreement here that King's secret resides on the flames on his back. It's reasonable to think now if it were to be snuffed out, King's lifeline would be lost.
If our opinion is correct, this explains why Kaido took King with him to the Marineford. Of everybody present in MF, only Aokiji would be able to snuff out the flames. And, among the Shichibukais, maybe only Mihawk, since I doubt Zoro can slice off intangible things but Mihawk could not. Kizaru's lasers isn't going to snuff out his flames and Akainu's magma would just make the flames bigger. We don't have any indication that Garp and Sengoku know how to cut flames. In theory, he could virtually no sell almost every attack and would have greatly bolstered Kaido's campaign (had it not been for Shanks, who could likely cut flames, too).
And you're all correct that it's good timing that Zoro recently learnt how to cut fire. This makes it clear why King was able to easily defeat Cook and Marco together, because they could neither snuff out nor damage his flames. So he was able to easily no sell everything they threw at him and responded brutally. I don't know what is up with Enma and the Shamisen, but after Zoro gets his shit together, he should try Homurasaki on King. :cheers:
P. S.
I feel that all the Zoro downplayers who claimed Zoro is below YC1 level because he can't hurt King ejaculated prematurely (as usual). They attributed the whole thing to Zoro supposedly being weak instead of King having a cheat defense code.

Great minds think alike :cheers:
Always bet on Zoro to come out with the W and Hiyori

king didn't bleed from onigiri, that was haki lightening.
about king's secret:
i believe it's his flames, like you pointed out, he didn't have them in hybrid form
and the only visible damage that king took was in hybrid aka zoro breaking his mask
so king is basically invincible as long as the flames still burns on his back.
