Are people understanding how ridiculous Dragon Damnation is now?
Lucci is a YC1-tier awakened Zoan and he was one-shotted by Santoryu + ACoC.
Now imagine if Zoro used KOH.
Now imagine if Zoro used KOH and overflowing ACoC - that's Dragon Damnation.
Now imagine how strong KOH Asura + overflowing ACoC would be... Who here still thinks Zoro isn't Admiral level? In terms of raw AP, he's genuinely one of the heaviest hitters in the verse rn lmao. Since he's controlling Enma with no issues whilst still regulating his haki usage, he's probably Oden level rn. DD paralleled Togen Totsuka, so he might even be slightly above with Asura.
Also y'all better start putting some respek on King's name, considering he no-sold KOH attacks with no flame on and required DD to put him down. King is the strongest high-tier, Lucci could never.
or maybe Lucci was never that strong?
It's quite ridiculous to think that mere CP0 bumasses could be that strong. Imagine CP0 having someone as strong as Marco. That sound ridiculous.
-2 CP0 lost vs injured Izo
-Stussy went down from 1 shigan
-Kaku jobbed hard offscreen
Why should Lucci be any different? Also, Oda writing previous arc that Who's Who was as strong as Lucci could lead to believe that Lucci is just a bit stronger than WW.
And before you bring up, Gear 5 nonsense. Obviously Oda just used Lucci in order to make Vegapunk talk about Nika and then the whole fight was a reference to their previous fight.
We've seen much stronger characters job to much weaker characters.
