@Elder Lee Hung seemingly took this as you agreeing with him lol

i dont think he sensed the sarcasm
Yeah I have no excuse lmfao.

To be clear I think Imu will be defeated in a group battle with Luffy shouldering most of the work. I still think there’s too much evidence showing that Davy Jones will ultimately kill Imu and Teach takes his fruit, and then Luffy fights Teach 1v1.

I’ve said it before, but Imu is the post timeskip version of Whitebeard. The more you start to compare where the two of them fall in the story, the more it becomes completely obvious.

Both Imu and Whitebeard were introduced halfway into their respective halves of the story, both Imu and Whitebeard are the overwhelmingly powerful time bomb threatening to go off and throw the end of their halves of the story into chaos, both Imu and Whitebeard have “devil” allusions.

Whitebeard was defeated in a group battle against the Navy (“the world”), Imu will be defeated in a group battle against “the world” (Luffy’s allies/allied Kingdoms) as well.

Teach killed Whitebeard, Davy Jones (Teach’s ancestor) will kill Imu. Davy Jones being “cursed by a demon and living on the sea floor” was already established, so the stage is set for him to have beef with Imu and kill Imu.

We already know Teach will get a third fruit given all of the “three” motifs surrounding him. His second fruit was Whitebeard’s fruit, his third fruit will be Imu’s fruit.

The irl Blackbeard was heavily associated with Satan and the Devil by the largely Christian world, so the only 3rd fruit that would make sense for Teach is a Satanic type fruit (Imu). Also Teach has the strongest Logia and the most destructive Paramecia, it only makes sense that his third fruit would be the most powerful Zoan (Imu).

I could go on but yeah Teach getting Imu’s fruit is so obvious it’s painful.

That is my take as well. BB will be like Naruto vs Sasuke after Kaguya was defeated imo.

Whitebeard was never Luffy's enemy. Luffy never even made a goal to defeat WB. Imu is not WB; he represents everything that Luffy and even Teach hate. Luffy and Teach are from the D. clan, and Imu is from the gods' clan. Imu committed so many crimes that only Freeza from DBZ can be compared to him. And we know about him only tip from the icebearg.

More to this, Imu is already nerfed, but still, there's basically no one in SH who can stay and fight against him. This is the way Oda introduces the idea of the Final Fight against Imu. Right now, he is weakened, but in the Final Fight, he will be absolutely broken. If Teach by some crazy move will be able to absorb him, I'm putting money on it, Imu will return eventually.

Plus to this, Imu's fruit is too complex for Teach to even release its full potential. Teach wouldn't be able to show the full potential of Gura Gura fruit, or Yami Yami. Oda will never do something like killing the biggest enemy of D. clan by coincidence, without showing a real full force fight.

:Think:
 
Just a chill dude.
I know you are trolling but lets say oda introduced imu as a character from shandora 900 years ago with tokis fruit or some shit where we have no idea with how his powers currently, and he stated he is an ancient ruler or something and pluck him in this chapter
I would not bat an eye at believing that

I fail to see any characterization that he is not a regular guy with powers we dont fully understand just now.

Joyboy was a regular dude too and he can do haki knots and probally other shit we dont know or yet is not explained

Imu and Whitebeard are foils for sure, they are opposites in many ways but their roles in the story are the exact same.

Whitebeard was known by all, he was called a Devil but in truth he was one man with one heart as he said. He was feared by all but at the end of the day he was a good man with one heart.

Imu is known by few, those that do know him call him “the true god” but he is more akin to an actual Devil. The WG is still trusted by most of the OP world but Imu (who represents the WG) is evil as shit.

Whitebeard was a good man thought to be a Devil, Imu is a Devil who is thought to be a God.

Whitebeard and Luffy allied, Luffy and Imu will be opposed to each other.

These differences are so stark that they prove my point even harder. Imu and Whitebeard represent the same narrative device in the maga, just in different ways.
 
Gonna make a wager that the people whom take out imu (force his timer up) are going to the combination of loki , zoro, and luffy.

There are several reasons for this:

1). Both loki and zoro simultaneously became aware of the power that they had that they knew nothing of which is adcoc. So the time for zoro to understand and thus use is properly is coming, same with loki

2) we also have another great hint with g5 luffy stating that sommers will forever remember zoros name. Now this could be zoro vs amped up sommers that this sets up for or it could be sommers remembering zoros name through the memories of inu based on the feat luffy, loki and zoro will do.


And

Zoro should never be in the same talks as Luffy and loki
