Spoiler One Piece Chapter 1162 Spoilers Discussion

[Xione]

Sure, but even then there's still a clear gap in power between Kyo and the average nameless God Valley pirate, yet he still got decked in the chin by one of them.
I don't believe getting hurt by fodders means as much as you believe it does. Jinbe got hurt by a Gifter and nobody's saying he's below Commanders for that.
I get the sentiment of "Koby didn't fight anyone strong on screen yet so he doesn't really have any feats to gauge his strength with", but using him getting hit by fodders off screen is disingenuous. Even Zoro was a little bruised against Gifters. It means nothing about a real fight between those characters, as Kyo would obviously destroy the lesser pirates on God Valley. Oda mostly just does that to show they've been putting in work against the enemy.

You're strawmanning the argument bro.

In Jinbei's situation he then proceeds to fight Who's Who. In Zoro's situation he has multiple fights.

In Koby's situation he has two arcs, where he's with 7 YCs, 1 Warlord, 1 Emperor. And Oda hasn't drawn a single interaction of combat with Koby and them. He's been limited to nothing but fodder control and taking damage from fodder, no different than Helmeppo and Grus were. Because they simply aren't that strong, which is fine by marine standards.

Even by the end of this arc, we're likely going to see some solid action from dudes like Kyo and etc, when the main event is only just starting.

Garling isn't as old as Garp/Ray/Sengoku... The man has blonde hair still, not white.

Sengoku had black hair at 77 btw.

Anyway, after Ju Peter I wouldn't trust toei colours at all.

Chat is this true

Insert copium about how it's Xebec possessing Teach and not Teach himself

 

[Peepooman]

If we're scaling him based on his hair moon status, then wouldn't a full moon be his peak form?

Oda already drew that in an SBS

Oda always spends his time answering the most useless questions

 

[Dragon777]

This. Garling look considerably younger than the Legends at God Valley

Garling was bare minimum 30. Bare minimum.

 

[Crow]

Sengoku had black hair at 77 btw

A genocide now and then keeps your hair healthy

It's true I know a certain other man that had full black hair until his death

"garling was not at his prime"

okay what hype does this mythical prime garling have to suggest that he also won't get low-diffed by rocks?

@Elder Lee Hung @EmperorKinyagi @Kurozumi Wiwi

At least Sommers in the previous chapter was actually shown getting sneak attacked by Ray, and crashed into a building.

Garling on the other hand had backup from another Holy Knight plus a demon army against a nerfed Rocks, only at the end for Garling to get defeated off screen and unlike Sommers who was never shown defeated, we actually see Garling defeated.

Man Xebec literally stabbed Garling with his own sword, Oda truly shows no mercy to his villains lol

Man Garling looks fuckin' rough there. Xebec really destroyed him

Strongest Gorosei type of hype

Nobody mentioned Warcury.

This is still you complaining about a different issue though. Koby getting injured by fodder doesn't seem to be what your problem is with him, it's that Oda hasn't given him feats against anyone strong.
But that same argument has been made for Lucci, Crocodile, Shiryu, Hancock etc. yet it's still obvious how strong those characters are.

 

[WorstMan]

Yo, when I said Garling got done by a no named attack, I wasn't far off? Hahaha

 

[Rurushu]

Before the last chapter: "Garling is top 3-4 in GV and probably the one who killed Xebec and gave a scar to WB"

After the last chapter: "It's actUally a RooKie Gagling with no df and he ActUally managed to inflict a few scratches on Rocks in a 100v1 so don't slander him"

Insane copium

Who's starting the wank for Borsalino's role model, Vice Admiral Falcone?

 

[Konstantis]

Garling was not his prime. He's in his thirties and reached his primes 4 or 5 years later.

He got so much stronger in these years that he would go from neg diffed in a 1v1 vs Rocks to a solid low diff.

You guys need to stop looking for excuses lol, Garling should either be in his prime or close to it, he's just not the type of guy who can fight Xebec.

You have to be at the top for that.

Cope already started it seems
