He is becoming both. He is growing as a strawhat, Zeff's adoptive son , Ivankov student and a haki master. But his engineered body also evolved, sign that the stronger he gets, the stronger his modificated body also gets. He has to keep this under control. I think this isn't the last time his...

Whole cake island explored the topic of family extensively, that's one of the reason why i do think Judge's control over his children is more than conditioning. Indeed, there were sensible reasons for why the Charlotte children made certain choice. Katakuri couldn't abandon before knowing that...

I like what you said here regarding how education can shape a child mentality leading to submission. In "The Boys", that's the method "Vault" used to control Homelander. However, if there wasn't more to it than psychological domination, programing, it wouldn't explain what is happening with...

He also took away their empathy tough. It seemed like the stronger the cyborg was, the worse it was. Ichiji didn't even flinch when Reiju was down. Added to the inability to refuse to obey to Judge? The OP is right, his brothers are victims, Judge made them like that, they're almost slaves...

The main difference between Zoro and Sanji, which is the reason why Zoro is the right hand is: "stability". Zoro is extremely reliable, unwavering. Sanji is psychologically unstable, lacked self esteem until now, and moving forward, because of his genes/DNA, there is a huge chance he will lose...

Characters who have CoC but can't coat their attacks with it will potentially be able to master it mid fight during the final battle/ Great war. Doflamingo, Katakuri, Kid could just do what Zoro and Sanji are doing on Elbaph. Haki grosse during rough battle, characters Will power up.

Imu didn't bleed after taking "Gungir". Hajrudin caused no damage. This was like all the times Big Mom or Kaido were getting thrown around without suffering any injuries.

He left the Holy Knights behind to clean up. Garling is the one who killed Xebec.

Regen is the main factor but not the only one. The Holy Knights and the elders have devil fruits,weapons and haki. Even a guy like Sommers could protect himself to some extent against Gaban thanks to his haki and his fruit. That's why Harald, Xebec and the elders are so strong. On top of the...

He did. Against Kizaru to incapacitate him. And there is no plot hole against the Gorosei, unlike most Holy Knights, the elders use CoC so characters face the same issue that Shanks, Gaban, Roger & Garp (all conquerors) had against Rocks and Harald. Oda isn't that bad of a writer.

Nothing surprising tbh. GV Roger and Garp is a stronger pair than Shanks in his twenties and Gaban after 10 yearrs of retirement. On top of that for some reason people completely ignore the fact that Loki was Harald's son. Sure Loki was stronger than Shanks or Gaban after his power ups ( Ragnir...

That actually gives credence to the fact that being a strongest swordman than someone doesn't make you a stronger fighter. Unless you're claiming that Mihawk is stronger than Gold Roger.
