Chapter Discussion One Piece Chapter 1197: Love is Defense

[mmd]

This was probably unaware use of CoC, btw.
Similar to Zoro's Ashura against Kaido.

I’ve mentioned before that any character might have used Advanced Conqueror’s Haki (AdvCoC) inadvertently, and Oda could use this to make the story’s logic hold up.
For instance, I believe Luffy might have used AdvCoC a few times against Katakuri without even realizing it.

Haki can interact with light, it can't destroy it.

That's why Kizaru was shocked and made that comment on about rewriting physics books.

What he saw is unprecedent in his experience, and it was Power of Love.

This is odd

Sanji's big black CoC attack cleared all the surrounding clouds.

The truth is that Oda doesn't care about these sizes at all;
he draws them solely for visual appeal.

You don't have to like it, just get over it.

 

[Doggo]

He wasn't aware at the start of the chapter. That's why I'm not buying this improved CoA bit.

After he resolves to be Luffy's shield, it should be obvious to him.

Also
"making killingham wish to die" isn't that an interpretation of infusing his attacks with CoC?
after all, haoshoku it's the ability to impose your will onto others.

So that's why Haoshoku "counters" Omen's immortality. It STRAIGHT UP bullies it into fading?

My reading is Sanji says he'll make Killingham wish to die as an alternative to being able to kill him with Conqueror's Haki.

By that point, he was not aware he was already using Conqueror's Haki and slowing down Killingham's healing.

Love or hate Sanji, this chapter was fucking tough. He hasn't had a moment this raw since the Mr. Prince days. Also, love that parallel with Zoro by making Killingham DEATHLY afraid of him just like how Bummers shat himself when he realized he was cooked. There is finally parity again with the greatest duo in shounen history.

Love is defense

No only sanji piece for the next 10 chapters

Nah next chapter we will be forced to worship Nika

The first time Zoro used Conqueror's and cut Kaido, there was no visual indicator of it either.

Sanji wasn't aware of his Conqueror's Haki affecting Killingham already, and probably wasn't until the 2 last pages at the earliest, when he resolved to become Luffy's shield.

1198 will probably open on the closing of Sanji vs Killingham, I expect him to be fully ware by then.

Nah next chapter we will be forced to worship Nika

thats why this arc is over for me

There was once a time when you had to train your CoA to make it stronger.

 

[FlyFlower]

If Killingham gets an "enel gag face," then Shamrock will get one too.

Color of Cuddling

 

[Hiragaro]

Sanji was truly suffering...FROM SUCCESS WAHAHAHA!!!

 

[Rumble]

There was once a time when you had to train your CoA to make it stronger.

Even if I'm wrong about Sanji mistaking CoC as an improvement in Armament, if Haki is willpower, why wouldn't Sanji resolving to finally cherish his body not translate to more potent Haki as a result?

It's possible both are happening.

I'm not taking victory laps on any claims relating to CoA yet.

 

[Hiragaro]

KH's Omen Armor Design was absolute fire

 

[Monkey D Al]

I dont think Sanji has exoskeleton anymore
He said he needs something instead of that, his body doesnt blong to germa and used High level coa+coc for defense
@Sir Yasheen @Doggo
Thoughts?

I think it’s more that he doesn’t think of it as the body of Germa. But it is his own body eksoskelton an everything. Anyway he is OP at the moment. He is the fastest strawhat and now has also the highest defense.
