I am deflecting from what? Lucci got 0 hits on Luffy, Lucci got defeated on 3 hits.
Luffy used Gear 4 on a fucking ship and Number before, that should actually show that he intended to end the fight fast, which he hid.
Luffy humiliated Lucci and there is no twisting to that, you can try to make Lucci good from this fight all you want won't change the fact that he got Blueno'd even worse than the original did.
