The fact that you think Oda would ever spend that much time elaborating on the minuscule inscrutable details of the fighting style of a minor character as opposed to just progressing the plot just shows that you read too much trash like JJK where there is no plot and only technical explanations of combat styles

Even now as the soulless puppeteered corpse that he currently is, Oda has never wasted time delving this deep into the technicalities of a fighting style lol.

Seriously the part where Gaban explains he has always been good with a variety of weapons but doesn’t touch swords is just so awful lmfao.
Again rubbish. Oda has always went out ofbhis way to show the fighting style of characters. FYI swordsmanship is also a fighting style. Secondly never once stated that he will elaborate on it. Stated if you know English that his fighting style is akin to a real world fighting style akido. Simple. No long drawn out explanation from the author himself.

Yes the fact that he is great all around with weaponary also make sense with him not picking up a blade adds to the fact that he considered it to be a :Rayleigh and rodger thing". Dude wanted to be different

I know what Aikido is. And none of those weapons are axes, now are they?
But all of those weapons are short blades or short wooden weaponary aren't they? Gabans Axes fit both of those criteria simultaneously

No. A tanto is used to stab. A battle axe is to cleave. Also the weight is different.
 
No way!!!!!

Onepiece chapter 1140 : Scopper Gaban


Chapter starts with imformation on Gaban and how he is good at what seems to be an akido fighting style incorporating kicks as well. He is capable of handling most weaponary with his speciality being Axes. However he has always refused using swords as he notes that Rayleigh is the one that perfected fighting with a sword and that he won't be as gifted as Rayleigh in that regard. He mentions to luffy that even though he was below rodger and Rayleigh, he was also not one to be trifled with, after all he was still the left hand of the pirate king rodger.

Upon hearing this luffy is shocked and laughs stating that old man ray would talk about gaban and the rodger pirates as he was training luffy during those two years. Luffy remarked that rayleigh had stated that in all of their confrontations gaban not once defeated Rayleigh which irritates Gaban with Gaban remarking "that atleastbhe was always close. Scene shifts.The fight starts off with gaban using his speed and mobility to dodge and redirect luffys punches back at him. He also uses a version of life return (more similar to Laio-G's ability to return his prime strength back to himself) to enhance his physicality including speed.

Gaban this chapter also seems to be very good at coO (showing what seems to be a use of future sight) and has internal destruction ryo punches that he calls his "Love Language attacks". Gaban is playing a Game of tag/keep away with luffy. If luffy grabs the key within 30 mins from gaban, luffy wins. However if gaban manages to hold onto the key for 30 mins, the strawhats must leave the island of elbaf and forget about freeing loki.

Luffy agrees to the challenge. Luffy counters gaban with his own future sight and Ryo attacks and pushes himself in speed using g2.

However gaban is also alot like usoop (which luffy states) in terms of gaban having access to calculated traps and capture tools to slow luffy down. Gaban is a jack of all trades type of fighter. He has great hand to hand combat, can uses multi weaponary, has advanced coO and coA and has full control of his body and it's usage. However gaban took pride is his ability to be the MASTER of something and that's his usage of his dual weiding AXES.

While being chased gaban ties the key on his back and takes out his two renowned AXES (that also happen to be Supreme grade blades lol).

In retaliation luffy goes full G4. Gaban throws his Axes at luffy, and luffy dodges. Zoro watching the fight remarks on how gaban threw the weapons that were the best suited to harm luffy and states that he is at a disadvantage.

Gaban upon hearing this laughs at zoros remarks. Gaban then uses "Magentism" to retract his Axes back into his hands, stating that love always attracts!!!!

CHAPTER ENDS WITH LUFFY IN SHOCK OF WHAT HE JUST WITNESS GABAN DO. STATING "THATS KIDDS ABILITY"!!!!!!!
