Powers & Abilities A lot of "Haki" can now "counter devil fruits" sigh....

So you knew Sugar powers won't work? So why did Oda write the plot of Law and Luffy being the ones that needed rescuing from Sugar? And why did Sugar powers work on all those haki users?

So you knew Hancock abilties wouldn't work on BB? So why did BB literally say her powers will work on him?

So you knew Law awakening wouldn't work on Big Mom? So why did Law's awakening work on Big Mom?

So you knew Puddings abilities wouldn't work on Sanji? So why did it work on Sanji?

So you knew Tama abilities wouldn't work on the beast pirates that had haki? So why did it work on the beast pirates that had Haki?
Yes, I knew her powers wouldn't work on the likes of Kaido, and argued it for months back then because that's what Rayleigh told us. Armament haki is the only effective counter measure against devil fruits. It's not rocket science. He wasn't speaking in cryptic. It was direct and to the point.

Anyone trying to defend this shit doesn't even understand the problem with it to begin with. Haki is heavily flawed and no it was never explained, it is purposefully left vague because Oda himself didn't even put a thought into it, only when it is convenient for him will he pull specific counters out of his ass.
Dont be salty admiral fanboy, haki>>>>devil fruits, lmao

Trash writing.
BigMom couldn't nulify Kidd's awakening, but she could nulify Law's Shambles.
Or Teach confirming that there's no man (a straight one) that can resist Hancock's powers, that includes Yonko, Admirals, etc.

Author is using this wherever he needs.

And no, Rayleigh or Vergo's examples are invalid here. Never it was stated that Haki NULIFY DF, Haki allows to deal against some powers of DF, but it cannot do what Kairoseki does.
Doflamingo could block Law's Amputation, but not the others attacks for example.

The issue is that is false as well. Devil fruits can overcome anything whenever convenient as well.

So far only the weak shitty moves or dfs have been nullified by haki. Big Mom could do nothing but beg for her life when up against Law's awakening.

This is an AnimeSnob level nitpick. There’s lots of problems in One Piece, this one is not.
Haki countering df is a decision to fight entropy, imagine you crawl your way to the world, build your strength, become one of the strongest, due to hardwork, genes, chosen shit or whatever, just to have Jon Doe beat the shit out of you because of counter counter df.
It would create a matchup based world, where legends wouldn’t be able to emerge, and the top dogs would all be fraudulents fucks that avoid fighting in order to not get fucked by luck.
Power levels are important, not a detriment.
Of course, I’m expecting Oda to be even more inconsistent than Kubo about it, I’m already remembering Oden unable to harm Orochi because of the barrier of a fodder (even though I think said fodder is much more important and alive as someone deeply connected to Xebec, or Xebec himself, that’s still a theory I did in the past, and not a confirmed fact) for example, but the premise is this, and I guess, if we want to get technical about it, we don’t know how much “df level” BB’s lackey exerted, nor how much haki Law has exerted, so the required haki to stop devil fruits would be impossible to achieve against top tiers, or people of similar level.
So, Sugar could do this against Robin, but would fail vs Kaidou, as, even if Robin is stronger than Sugar, the difference is not enough to completely negate it.

We knew about this for over a decade. Rayleigh said it, Smoker said it and Doflamingo/Vergo said it. Yes we were all arguing hax like Sugar or the art one wouldn't work on anyone with strong haki. So yes we know about this, its just the first time we have seen it

I do however agree that if Haki and DFs were fully explained atleast at timeskip it would make the fights post skip way way better, bad writing when it comes to fights for sure

Why do you guys always leave it to me to create a thread on how terrible Oda's writing is? You guys need to pick up the slack for once gahh. Oda creating nonsense out his ass again. Looks like Law was powering up his super saiyan transformation.

No we did not know this from Punk Hazard. A vague line by Doffy about "cutting powers" doesn't mean you can counter all devil fruits especially when we came across many scenarios of devil fruit powers being used against people with greater haki.

Oda writes things that continue making us question preestablished events because he keeps putting himself in difficult scenarios so he has to create shit out his ass. "Law devil fruit is hax so let me nerf it and say "Big Mom and Kaido haki is too strong"".
  • Why did Sugar need to be knocked out?
  • Why did Sugar abilities work on all those people with greater haki?
  • If you need top tier haki then why did Doffy say Vergo can block Law's devil fruit power when clearly Vergo doesn't have top tier haki?
  • Why does Pudding power work against people with greater haki?
  • Why did Blackbeard say Hancock devil fruit will work on him? Is Oda implying BB is weak as heck?
  • So now every top tier haki user has BB Yami yami devil fruit where they can negate devil fruit powers? So why did BB spend so much time getting the Yami yami when he could have just developed his haki?
  • Etc.


So that the rest of the plot can happen.

I love how all the people attacking the OP’s claims conveniently forget to mention Sugar in their counter arguments
Post automatically merged:

Maybe Oda has too much faith in his audience that they could put 2 and 2 together, and reach the conclusion that the guy who can coat himself in magma, didn't die by being submerged in magma?
It’s just as you said, Lee
:arnoling:
Make shit as vague as possible so that Oda angels can defend it.

, and since t
When he repeatedly emphasized Kaido and Meme are down and out and now everyone wants to make moves
That in no way shape or form suggests Kaido or Big Mom is dead... They are down... Buried under a Volcano, with no means of escape.

Would you expect them to just swim to the surface through miles of magma and bedrock, and since they can't that means they are dead? Lol

An expected response from someone who needs to be spoofed a series written for teenagers....
Stop. You are down bad. You made an entire bizarre complex headcanon about Kaido and Big Mom being trapped underground. Right the giant dragon that can coat itself in magma flames and blast through mountains alongside the hag who can turn magma into her servants.

Lmfao what are they eating in this dumb headcanon of yours? Volcano fruit?

Headcannon? Lmfao....

Big Mom and Kaido were buried alive. Nothing even remotely suggests their dead....

It's like you forget you're reading a manga where some normal flesh and blood human withstood being boiled alive for over an hour.... Smh
