Yes they used king…
You do realize his lunarian traits are not things unique to king but something all lunarians have right? His height has never been mentioned as something lunarian related. Same way Jack and queen being big as hell isn’t something unique to humans or fush
Their base bodies are literally the warlords because they’re clones of the warlords with special powers added. S-shark isn’t what the love child or combination of Jinbe and king would look like. S-shark is a Jinbe clone with lunarian abilities
Is it that hard for you to understand that they’re clones of the warlords with special abilities added. Non of their lunarian traits are specifically special to king. They’re special to all lunarian. Height never being highlighted as a special trait
Gigantification has something repeatedly highlighting throughout the new world as a scientific achievement no one has been able to get right.
- First told about it in punk hazard with the wg trying years and years and repeating failing
- The punk hazard kids being one example
- The numbers being another
- Was highlighted again in wci with big moms dream and Caesar thinking it’s impossible
- Reminded again in wano with the numbers
Now we find out kuma is a special race that has giants blood within them and it is repeated noted how big the seraphim are.
Vegapunk being the smartest man alive and successfully doing things never done and out doing Caesar is only natural. He even did it with his artificial zoans
1+1=2
So you pasted a page explicitly saying the lunarians were created directly from King to prove they are generic lunarians with generic traits and none directly from him.
1+1=2 indeed.
Things we do know:
- They have used King's DNA to import his desired traits onto the Seraphims.
- The Seraphims are clones using the DNA of Shichibukai's and King's DNA ("the Seraphim are augmented by none other than his lunarian blood", as you posted yourself).
- All the Seraphims are much bigger than normal humans.
- King was much bigger than normal humans.
- Buccaneers are much bigger than normal humans.
- Yet S-Bear, the clone of a buccaneer, is much bigger than his fellow lunarians.
Obvious question:
If they were all augmented by buccaneer DNA, wouldn't they be growing at more similar heights? How is it that S-Bear can easily step on any of the others? On top of that, we'd be talking about buccaneer genetic traits obtained directly from Kuma for all of them.
Obvious answer:
Just like they extracted King's racial traits, nothing stopped Vegapunk from extracting the genes of his general built: hair color, wings, fire gimmicks and general build. There you have it, "giants" obtained in one swoop. S-Bear, having King's build as his base height, is the clone of a buccaneer on top of that, so he's much bigger than the rest and than the original Kuma (by the time he becomes an adult).
You simply can't explain their respective heights otherwise if they are all partly buccaneers. They also don't need to be 50% King to have his height as their base height: we know Vegapunk used his genes to enhance them, even if his height is not representative of the lunarian race, there's literally no argument as to why Vegapunk couldn't have used the genes of the 6 meters tall lunarian to make them become 6 meters tall lunarians.
