Loki is mortally wounded lol he has excuses for a bad performance even if you think he did have one. Regardless @Elder Lee Hung made a brilliant thread as to why Loki outperformed Gaban with some good analysis

I don’t wank Loki as a god tier I’m not one of them people anyways. I just know he’s above the Rocks duo bum ass emperors for sure

My point is more bout imu. Idk how yall have read this arc and come to the conclusion he isn’t a galaxy above anything else we’ve seen so far lol
I read that thread and I am not convinced. Loki is strong but not a god tier. Gaban is 80 years old and also mortally wounded btw. He had the strongest attack out of the 3 so far and like I said hybrid Loki and serious Luffy will eventually do better but for now Gaban did shatter the powercreeping gang.
We can't dismiss the fact he's the first one to break through Imu's omen barrier.

It's okay, we all ran this anti Imu agenda for different reasons and got burned, it is what it is. The guy arrived nerfed and is running through a gauntlet of top of the verse fighters using maybe 20% of his total power. You're just making a fool out of yourself by not accepting reality.
Oda really didn’t fuck around with the WG, the Yawnco were a bunch of clown tier villains but the WG are an actual serious threat. And yeah Imu ran the best gauntlet in OP history by far, this gauntlet may even age well at EOS.

There’s really zero evidence for this. Imu didn’t even fully get his omen defense up before Gaban started hitting him, and despite Imu not fully getting his guard up, he still ended up with a tiny paper cut, and then finished Gaban off with AdCoC less boogers.

Any opponent Imu doesn’t need AdCoC for is a fodder. Imu was spamming huge AdCoC omen nukes against Loki btw.

An all-out call for the Power Creep Gang! Where art thou?!
Important lesson to announce - Sanji parallel, injured old fart Gyaban, has just ruined your whole career.

Where is the power creep that Lokibros, Ragnirbros and so-on-bros promised us?!
Weak, injured, old Gaban just slapped you so hard you dont even realize it but dont worry, I am here to break it down for ya.


Where should we even begin... At which point exactly did yall lose your mind, thinking power creep became a thing?

Was it when you believed that Luffy became stronger than Kaido just because he beat Kaido?
Was it during Egghead when Luffy "pizza-diffed" two top tiers despite it amounting to nothing?
Was it during Elbaf flashback when you saw Rocks shooting haki cannons and you thought this fella is stronger than Kaido?
Was it during God Valley flashback when you lost your minds that Imu no-sold attacks of 6 legends?
Was it when Imu "neg-diffed" prime Rocks despite not dealing any damage to him?
Was it when you thought Loki legit beat HK Harald while intentionally ignoring Harald removing his own defenses?
Was it when you saw Loki vs Imu and you lost your ability to think because of flashy AOE attacks?

At which step exactly did you guys fail? I would say at every single one of them.
That's how disconnected from reality your power scaling is.
These are the delusions that not even Doctor Kitetsu can cure.:crazwhat:
However, doc Kitetsu is here to remind you just how much off you were, as usual.


Let's begin with your inability to understand that Kaido is the strongest character we saw until now, and yes, that includes Imu.
Another thing you fail to grasp is that Kaido's top 5 are all weaker than Kaido. They are his hype tools, not the other way around.

And just who do we have among Kaido's top 5? Roja! The Pirate King, on the same pedestal as Rocks, WB, Shanksu and mighty Oden.
Why is Roja important here? Because he is a man of a hundred equals!
When I told ya that Rayleigh and Gaban were his equals, what did you do? You resorted to copium and dismissed it.
Why? Because in your head, Roger>Rayleigh>Gaban is established a long time ago and that data entry is forbidden from updating.

Let us remind the scholars that I have already announced a long time ago that aCoC is the power of equality.
That is why Roja had countless equals. Everyone who possessed the ability to infuse CoC was Roger's equal.
The end. Get that through your head.

So, where is this power creep that you promised? Let us take a look at the steps of unpredecented self-sabotaji:

Step 1 - Luffy is stronger than Kaido now.
Step 2 - Whoever is stronger than Luffy is stronger than Kaido as well.
Step 3 - Davy Xebec is stronger than both.
Step 4 - A squirrel is stronger than Harald and thus stronger than Rocks and Kaido as well.
Step 5 - A guy(Loki) stronger than Xebec's equal(Harald) is much stronger than Kaido and Rocks.
Step 6 - A guy like Imu is stronger than Loki and thus, far, far stronger than Kaido, Rocks, Harald...
Step 7 - Since blob Imu neg diffed prime Rocks and low diffed Loki, he should neg peakGaban who is weaker than Kaido/Rocks/Loki.
Starting to see the big picture? :PepeJoker:

The point here, whatever is the latest thing is the greatest thing, the strongest...
...and that's why, a power creep bubble forms in your head. But there is something wrong with that picture, right? Right?!

Of course there is plenty wrong with it. You just dont see it or dont want to see it due to agendas?

No sane person would argue that blob Imu is stronger than Imu in person.
And no sane person would argue that old, heavily injured Gaban is stronger than prime Rocks.
This is where the scholars' delusion collapses, it all comes crashing down.

Dear little scholars, these are the questions that await your answers:

1 - How can a stronger version of Imu struggle so much against a so much weaker opponent like old, deathbed Gaban?
2 - How can a guy supposedly stronger than Kaido(Luffy) receive so much clowning from a guy weaker than Kaido(Gaban)?
3 - How can old, deathbed Gaban take off his pants and take a royal dump on your latest favorite Loki? In every single metric.
4 - Where did Domi Reversi disappear? Why isnt Imu negging everyone, left and right, with it?
5 - Why can old deathbed Gaban break through Imu's haki and injure him while peak Roger+Garp barely injured DR Rocks?
6 - Why can old deathbed Gaban push Imu so much while supposedly being weaker than a mere squirrel?

My dear little scholars, you have built a house of cards and now that house is collapsing.
You imagined a higher and higher power level with every new character that you saw and then, old and injured Gaban outperformed all your favorites... Did I or did I not tell you that the only thing better than Loki's hype wave will be his downfall? You thought I was joking? I was merely looking far into the future. :pepeiseeu:


Once again, you lifted Rocks, because he was the latest thing, above all old legends...
...then you proceeded to lift Loki above Rocks and his equal Harald...
...but your gravest sin is lifting Loki above HK-ified Harald because of your reading comprehension skill issue.

And then came a Sanjino parallel, the last thing you expected to pop your bubble...
...and he did it magnificantly. Not only did he easily block XingTiang axe but he also easily avoided Imu's slash.
Then he forced Imu to actually dual wield... I guess you gotta answer dual wield with a dual wield...
Something Loki never managed to do. Not only did he take a dump on Loki's endurance by withstanding 2 slashes from Bone Eater...
...while Loki is lying on his back after 2 hits, but he shat on Loki's main selling point - destruction.
This last slash from Gaban is HUGE, Loki's Thorheim size or even bigger while being a 2-meter-sized normie.
And all of that without a squirrel "mightier" than everyone. :milaugh:

Is there anything Loki can do that old, deathbed Gaban can't do better?
Do yall realize that Zoro can outdo everything Gaban has shown or yall are still stuck with tail-dif?

And the shittalk to Luffy... Man, a pure cherry on top of the cake. :pepepopcorn:
Remember, I am no downplayer, I am merely a realist.
Everything I said about Loki and Luffy, Gaban has literally confirmed in this 10/10 chapter.

Now, with facts staring you in the eyes, what excuses are you going to grace us with? @comrade @Sentinel @soupongo @Loki D. Terror
I would tag Lee-chin too but I got no cure for him... If I remember more questions, and I am sure I will, I will tag ya, bois. Cheers!
Also tag all Lokibros, I forgot who they are. Doctor Kitetsu is excited for more power creep delusions.
Ain't reading all that.

Zoro is still weak.

Gaban did good while injured old man but he did better than gear 5 luffy who defeat kaido.

This luffy run a lot while fighting Imu, get clones.
Same luffy eat big amount of food to be prepare for Imu battle thinking he can't lose and overwhelming power.

Old Gaban > Overfed luffy > wano gear 5 luffy >= Kaido

Loki has best ones, imu only defeat base Loki , not hybrid or dragon form, just base form. Imu need juice himself Haut fight base lokj or dragon form knowing be can't beat loki in arm wrestling.
 
#31
Nothing ever changed lmao.

Imu was always the a tier above top tiers.

Yonkou > Admiral~Old legend is as consitent as it can get with the recent chapter.

They wanted Kaidou to be power crept lmao.

Only fandom with problems here will claim Kaidou won't be able to better than Gaban but Admirals would.

:risisure:
You will realise how 'powercreep' came into play.

This all started with Luffy vs Kizaru because luffy defeated Kaidou, So Kizaru > Luffy now.

Is Lucci > King now?


Gaban statements this chapters literally clowns luffy with calling him 'Yonkou'.
Bro literally said you're not meant for this lol.

Even Gaban said he defeated Kaidou, current performance shows how Gaban the reality lol.

Luffy was never Yonkou tier.
:ihaha::ihaha:

Imagine low diffing top tiers back to back in a gauntlet style and still not viewing the powercreep

And this coming from someone who simply being in the lower realm weakens him

And this is disregarding the possibility that he is also further weakened by the pacts since he hinted that killing someone he shared a pact with could weaken him, suggesting that maybe if he gets them back, he is exponentially gets even stronger
 
#33
There's definitely a power creep because of imu. He's obviously clear cut above any top tier and others can be imbued with his omen to make them drastically stronger. The characters are going to have upscale to match this so will create power creep. Imagine if akainu gets a omen buff. There is no top tier rn that's doing anything to omen akainu so eos characters will have to be stronger to beat him. On top of this imu in elbaf maybe a weaker version than when he's on the holy land so he could possibly be even stronger than what he's showing.

4 - Where did Domi Reversi disappear? Why isnt Imu negging everyone, left and right, with it?
5 - Why can old deathbed Gaban break through Imu's haki and injure him while peak Roger+Garp barely injured DR Rocks?
6 - Why can old deathbed Gaban push Imu so much while supposedly being weaker than a mere squirrel?
How are we supposed to know why DR disappeared lol? Either Imu wants to torture and kill people now, or is saving it for later. Or maybe he has a limit to how much he can use it for a day.

Idk what happened with DR Rocks. Frankly it doesn't look like anything we've seen since the flashback. Maybe Imu knows the Haki defense but doesn't want to use it? Is it sustainable or not, who really knows

Gaban didn't push Imu much at all, he got low diffed

That's exactly where the insanity starts: first, they refuse to accept Kaido as the strongest of all time, and then they come up with things they can't even explain.

Roger and Garp struggled to injure Dr. Xebec, yet Base Luffy, Loki, and old Gaban can wound Imu, a god-tier character who's supposedly above Dr. Xebec. What happened to Imu's Haki barrier? It should be superior to the Haki barrier of Domi Reverse Xebec, the one Roger and Garp had to pour all of their Haki into just to break through. But apparently it isn't, since injured old men on the verge of death can still wound Imu.

Then there's Harald, the 'unstoppable warrior.' 'But but but but Harald doesn't know that Haki application that coats your body with a barrier, that's why young Shanks and prime Gaban ripped that bum's leg off.' Lol.

And their excuses just keep multiplying with every chapter. Their agenda has more holes than a sieve, and they're trying to block out the sun with it. LOL.

"We went from, 'My God, Roger and Garp had to channel all of their Haki together just to break through Xebec's Haki barrier. No one should be able to injure Imu since his Haki is supposedly the strongest in the entire verse.'
  • Loki wounds Imu: 'My God, Loki is a demigod, way above Roger and Garp!'
  • Base Luffy goes and wounds Imu: Silence. Let's just pretend none of that ever happened.
  • Old, heavily nerfed Gaban on the verge of death does the exact same thing.

Y'all saw an unfocused heavily weakened Imu take mountain level haki booms from a top 3 haki feat in the series and leave with nothing but a bleeding mouth and the opponent had his arm taken and came to the conclusion he isn't levels above bums like Kaido :gokulaugh:
Have any top tier ignore Gaban to focus on another character while he's about to throw his ultimate and they would be dead. Gaban managing to draw some blood do not change condom getting his gigantic G5 punch palm diffed and citizen of hell onigiri tail diffed without any omen. How are the oversized fish that got scarred and blitzed by mid high tier Zoro in CQC or Vista's rival even relevant :usoprice:
