ONE PIECE CHAPTER 996: ISLAND OF THE STRONGEST

Tbh, Kaido was very impressive in this chapter.

Yamato definitely demonstrated Ryuo. You can even see her hardening on her arms with the usual black lightning stuff. It's definitely interesting that she's actually that powerful, her personality isn't still enjoyable tho...
People thought Yamato may be a dragon but I'm sure she rather ate the mythical white tiger zoan fruit since this makes sense in contrast to Kaido being the Azure Dragon who would be defeated by the White Tiger (Luffy, Yamato and Co).

What did he do so impressive?
Not die? I guess that impressive if your standards are low...

Well, he easily walked through the Scabbards and easily manhandled them. Meanwhile, Denjiro (YC level) tried to stab Kaido but it rather seemed like as if Kaido just took a needle lol.

It seems Law does find a Road Poneglyph which obviously shouldn't contain any information about the D clan and he was hoping on finding a normal one with information about the D.
Interesting.

only scabbards that are shown down:
Kinemon
Raizo
Denjiro

Manhandling Kinemon and Raizo isn't something to boast about.
No idea what makes Denjiro YC level. I'd group him with Drake and Sasaki, whom 1 of them Queen neg diffed with 1 sword.

You mean when Ulti attacked Yamato and she causally held her off while talking to Luffy? how is that event a feat. Ulti already got one shotted.

Can you read the entire clash especially the beggining?
If you can,you'll see them clashing evenly at one point.

 

[Celestial D. Dragon]

Thats clearly not true. Shanks would have fought mihawk not long before he lost an arm. Yet everyone was surprised beyond imagination when he came back without an arm. Is that the response to a rookie losing his arm? You think wb would give a shit on kidd losing his arm ?

Exactly... By the time Shanks had lost his arm he was already a well established Pirate, and Mihawk was probably already the World's Strongest Swordsman. So how would a fight between an established Pirate and the World's Strongest Swordsman only be spoken of as a legend, where only someone old school like Whitebeard remembers it like it happened yesterday? lol doesn't make any sense. If they were both World renowned when it happened, then everyone would remember it and it wouldn't be referred to as a legend.

 

[Bil02]

Looks like Oda was trying to send a message here

Spoiler

Worst gen vs Kaido and Big Mom confirmed ?

Like the Bm vs Luffy in Udon where it said "Luffy overcome the yonkou " and he got sent flying the next chapter?

I don't trust those things anymore ,surely just promotional material.

Sabo pulling up next chapter???:cheers:

Everyone does rememeber it. Ace novel says people still talk of it to this day and hes most famous for it.

 

[RayanOO]

Isn't it the first time that Law actually cut someone with blood etc and without his power ?

Saving his fruit.

Interesting.

Its not the Road Poneglyph.

 

[RayanOO]

Saving his fruit.

Yeah maybe he saves some power for later, but I think it is the first time he actually cut someone the normal way

Proud of him

I mean
Sn vs Kaido/Bm makes the most sense

 

[Formerly Seth]

Is it me or Sasaki's sword looks more like the type people used in medieval times or it's only because of angle?

 

[Celestial D. Dragon]

And that directly contradicts the manga canon, where Whitebeard explicitly states "There aren't many people who speak of the Legend anymore. Your duel with Hawk-eye is still fresh in my memory"
