Powers & Abilities Observation based power up next

[Albino 👑]

Against the beast pirates the monster trio lacked attack power to do significant damage against their tough zoan bodies. That leading them to get power ups tied to armament haki

Against the god knight and even Imu himself having omen abilities basically making them unkillable unless you have conquerors. Something the monster trio + Loki are working to master their usage of

While the beast pirates are hard to hurt I think the Blackbeard Pirates will be hard to hit. Relying on hax and trickery to avoid getting hurt. Sound crazy when thinking of Blackbeard as he is now but I do think his final fruit will grant him an ability to counter future observation
That being said I think their fights with the BBP’s is going to lead the m3 to getting observation based power ups

As for what’s after the Blackbeard pirates it likely leads back to Imu and the world government.
Idk if it’s going to really involve the crew fighting the gorosei since I assume they have the same gimmick as the god knights but hey maybe. The admirals and seraphim seem pretty straight forward to so idk if they really require a gimmick besides just being really strong

Could lead to them getting a final form each like

• If g5 is a hybrid form maybe a full zoan form. There’s the theory of it being tied to the mother flame
• Zoro getting Nidai potentially getting a new better version of asura that’s an actual form he can use for a decent period of time
• Sanji getting a raid suit specifically made for him and to strengthen what makes him stronger

Having Zoro get a new sword, at this point, could not be considered a buff.

Getting a power up is still a power up

An unfamiliar sword is more accurately a set back. If collecting higher ranked swords was a goal, as opposed to improving the rank of his swords, then he would say and do as much

he wanted Nidai Kitetsu but he never got to it

He didn't want it, he asked to see it, then proceeded to not say Jack shit to Tenguyama or anyone else during the resolution of Wano

Zoro’s goal is to get stronger he traded shusui for enma because he was told it’d make him stronger. Which it did
Zoro getting Nidai and improving its rank is automatically better than improving the rank of sandai

Never happened. If your reasoning is the explanation from Hiyori that it wounded Kaido, then this is poor logic because obviously Zoro would believe that any sword he uses has the potential to wound Kaido.

I misremembered when he learned he’d get stronger from mastering the blade happened a chapter after Hiyori offered him enma and told him about it

Unironically even more of a reason for Zoro replacing or even just getting Nidai and keeping Sanadai. Zoro isn’t going to turn down a strong sword if offered

Personally I dont want Zoro to replace Sandai Kitetsu.

Zoro simply had to return back Shusui because it is already a black blade.

If offered. Who's offering? If this is saying that he's not actually interested but will power up because someone offers, that kinda just sounds like moving the goalpost.

Lowkey if sandai doesn’t break or if it isn’t swapped out Zoro collecting each kitetsu could be cool. Either way I think him getting Nidai just makes too much sense imo

I do think Zoro keeping sandai and not getting the upgrade would be weird tho even if he makes it black. I think him having 3 blades of the same grade aka great upgrade to become supreme sounds cooler

Sukiyaki can offer when the crew makes its way backwards into the new world

There’s no goalpost in thinking Zoro might get Nidai
Also you say that as if that’s not exactly what he did with enma

Yeah the conquerors power ups the monster trio are getting in elbaf on top of the armament related ap boost in Wano the Blackbeard Pirates are definitely gonna rely on being hard to hit

1. Blackbeard imo might eat a fruit that give him a even better version of future observation
   • The quake fruit is basically better internal armament
   • The darkness fruit lets him shut down devil fruits and then some
2. Kuzan likely has future observation
3. Shiryu with his invisibility fruit
4. Van auger with his teleportation fruit
5. Catarina Devon with her 9 tails fruit
6. Etc
