People need to remember that Apoo’s DF is pretty lethal. Dude took an arm and blew up an unsuspecting Kizaru into pieces with just two attacks. On non-logia figters, that’s pretty lethal especially with no knowledge of the fruit’s capabilities. Luffy and Zoro’s bodies aren’t poneglyphs when it comes to durability, they’re going to take considerable damage from someone like Apoo when they have no idea what they’re up against.
However I love the fact that Apoo is getting this moment, mans been hella underrated over the years. Good way to hype him up before he gets squashed by Kidd :dogood:
