Spoiler One Piece Chapter 1162 Spoilers Discussion

[ZenZu]

Even in Marineford, during WB's final flashback before his death, he was shown being a part of another crew. It was obvious he never started out as a captain, like Roger or Luffy.
If anyone was worthy of being his captain, Rocks is it. A character making even Roger look like a chump, that's eating top tiers for breakfast.

Lot of us knew about the WB/Zoro parallels back then as well. I had seen @HA001 pushing it since I joined the forum
It was just that Zoro is a polarizing character (for agenda reasons), who also got mistreated by Oda since post timeskip. That bringing out the parallels was seen as an insult to a (formerly) universally respected character, by many readers.
And lets not pretend like we don't know why admiral fans were big on WB lol.

As for why it's hype, I've already explained. It isn't just some shallow "side by side scaling". It's them facing the undisputed top 1 of the series, even when Rocks is practically asking him to escape and when WB has no dog in the fight other than pure honour. If you get it, you get it.....
It's also just a good character moment, like this tweet puts out:

Maybe it's just personal preference.

Brother. MF WB made Garp and Sengoku look like nobodies, to now it seems like I'm doing Garp a disservice even mentioning WB beside him. If you don't see how that is a fall off...then you're lost in the sauce.

If Imu showed up before Teach... do you honestly believe Kuzan will fight with Teach instead of stabbing him in the back?

In that specific scenario it's more likely he supports Teach tbh. Why would he help the alien demon God that secretly ruled over the organisation he once served.

“Bro just wait he will scar WB trust”

I've tried to tell he didn't do It, but some are adamant on that.

Luzan never had any problem with CD's though, he was only going to crash out over Papazuki getting a promotion, likely out of jealousy.

 

[LANJI CUCKSMOKE]

Did Garling even actually marry that woman btw

prob not
just uses them to breed

 

[Boiroy]

Garling don't even have coc

Nah, @ZenZu already explained it. The way Oda will bring Kuzan’s past together is that after Ohara, he actively wanted the FA position to change the WG from within, and when he failed, he was done with them.

he just wanted that busted davy bloodine

All the while Oda has been hyping Shanks to the moon, one of the strongest Yonko, however his dad was a prick, jobbed off-screen.

 

[soupongo]

@Xione @MarineHQ
Ngl, it makes sense why Luzan left the navy post TS. Imagine being a fleet admiral candidate trained by Garp the fist etc etc, only to turn out to be weaker then a random racist Akainu found from jail and a fat blind guy Akainu found from a gambling house

 

[Tyki_Mikk]

Amen

It's almost like the Rox Pirates reached their peak when they went out on their own.

Kuzan would be whooping Imu's ass while fatbeard will be blown away and huffing just from seeing them fight

It's almost like Garp has not reached his peak either.

 

[nik87]

MFs told me Law or worse Katakuri is the next gen WB.

Turns out WB is the Zoro of the previous generation.

There is no Zoro, in any generation.

 

[Monster Zoro's Tesla Supplier]

There is no Zoro, in any generation.

Ryuma and Rayleigh

 

[DarkestKnightofSpoilers]

Xebec is such an GigaChad,i can‘t imagine what our boy Woki is really going to be

 

[ZenZu]

There is no Zoro, in any generation.

Very true. I would be embarrassed if we got insight on WB's journey to WSM and we find out he's been beating absolute fodder bums his whole career while his captain fights all the big guns.

Has Zoro even defeated someone stronger than Luffy's first grand line opponent a 1000 chapters ago?

 

[MarineHQ]

You all didn't get it yet, but there's a reason Oda established that Wuzan can undo freezing because he's going to do that to the giant straw hat we saw in Imu's basement. Then, BB can use whatever its power will be. @Blackbeard

 

[Roo]

So Kid as a Yonko level couldn't even defeat Shanks' coc?
So what difference would it make when Shanks is much faster than Kid even if they fought from 1 meter away what difference would it make when Kid didn't know which direction Shanks was going to attack from?
Kid couldn't react even from 50 meters away then how do you expect him to defend in a close fight

Shanks blocked Kaido's haki and sneaked attacked him away from MF. Is this shocking to you?
