    Questions & Mysteries Is Nika the person in Gear 5 in the Harley mural?

    Nika means smile. Joyboy is just another word for Nika. JOY boy. They're the same.

    Powers & Abilities So Zoro and Roger can send air bar out

    Just because you hold a Sword doesn't make you a Swordsman, otherwise I guess that makes Luffy a Swordsman too since Wano. By your logic (evading nuance), I guess Luffy is a Swordsman as well. Can't really compare DF users and Swordsmen. One changes your body biologically, and the other is a...

    Powers & Abilities So Zoro and Roger can send air bar out

    Well, end of the day, it's a fact that just using a Sword doesn't automatically make you a Swordsman. Regardless of how people want to word it, that chapter tells us there's a distinction. So, we have to ask, what is a Swordsman since Zoro tells us King isn't one.

    Powers & Abilities So Zoro and Roger can send air bar out

    Where? Don't think so as far as I can read, King is aware that Zoro is a Swordsman, he never said otherwise. What King said was that he was opposed to limiting himself to Swordsmanship when for him, winning is all that matters. He likes to fight however he wants.

    Powers & Abilities So Zoro and Roger can send air bar out

    Disagree, like Zoro said, King doesn't conform to wa school or style - that implies that is the definition of a Swordsman, King's a mixed martial artist who also uses a sword. Who did Zoro defeat without Swordsmanship? I know he has a swordless style, but that's still relying on Swordsmanship...

    Powers & Abilities So Zoro and Roger can send air bar out

    Eh? Never said King is not a Swordsman. King is a Swordsman, a skilled one, but not a pure Swordsman. He himself admits it, he says he'll bite if it means victory. Like Zoro said, King is not following a school or a certain style, it's just whatever he needs to win a fight. Most of the...

    Powers & Abilities So Zoro and Roger can send air bar out

    Swordmanship - Someone who only uses Swords, is part of a School or Style. Like Zoro said, not everyone with a Sword is a Swordsman. People who are willing to win in any way outside of Swordsmanship is not a Swordsman. Their martial art is like Sanji - he will use Legs to fight even if it kills...

    Le Fishe Thread Was Roger not sure whether Gaban can defeat Smoothie

    No matter how powerful your crew is, numbers will always be a factor. Big Mom has 100s of extremely powerful soldiers at her disposal. It's impossible to take on an Emperor with a small crew. Luffy snuck into WCI, but he would have failed had he not have the help of Fishman Pirates, Bege...

    General & Others Is all black lightning ACoC? How is ACoC shown?

    That was my point. If the "lightening" is only present from a clash, it's just Armament Haki. King's Haki doesn't require clashes for the lightening-sparks, there's a long obvious trail that almost outlines the swing of the attack from what I can see. The lightening is present before even...

    General & Others Is all black lightning ACoC? How is ACoC shown?

    If there's a trail, it's King's Haki based attacks. If a clash is needed for Lightening sparks, it's not King's Haki based. Luffy and Katakuri, there's no lightening sparks until the clash. Some characters can only generate Lightening only from clashing with another Armament user like was seen...

    Powers & Abilities Conqueror's Haki is not part of Swordsmanship

    Like Chinjao, Rayleigh and King implied. Anyone who uses King's Haki implies they're trying or have the potential to be the best at something. In order to be the WGS, you would need to have King's Haki which belongs to those with the potential to be the king of something, whether it's...

    Powers & Abilities Conqueror's Haki is not part of Swordsmanship

    Haki is a part of swordsmanship which is why Mihawk said Zoro should clad his blade in Haki, because a nick on a blade is a disgrace to a swordsman. Mihawk spent 2 years training Zoro to use Haki because it's required. Enma was also unleashing Zoro's Haki, so it is definitely a requirement to be...

    Speculations Is Joyboy Nika

    Joyboy is a title, it's not a name, it is a title. One thing people don't know is this, DF are named based on a scheme known as Onomatopoeia. An onomatopoeia is the word for a sound something makes. Oda names fruits based on the sounds they're associated with 9/10 times. Examples: "Guragura"...

    Character Discussion I think Kaido not being completely evil is a good thing

    Wild title. "Not completely evil" is not even a concept that exists. Adopting a few people isn't a metric of kindness when you commit genocide, national starvation, drought and enforcing slavery for 20 years. Would be like saying Hitler isn't completely evil because he was an animal lover. Title...

    Controversial If Asura as said by Kaido is a conquerors Haki attack, why does Haki God King Shanks not just materialize his arm back?

    Never said he didn't care about his own life being in danger, point is once his friends are directly in danger, violence is sanctioned on his part. It was also a lesson to Luffy to show that being a Pirate doesn't mean engaging in senseless violence. Fighting would put Makino, Luffy and co. in...

    Controversial If Asura as said by Kaido is a conquerors Haki attack, why does Haki God King Shanks not just materialize his arm back?

    Shanks doesn't care about being insulted, he established this at the start of the series. This is why when Luffy was made fun of by Bellamy, he thought back to Shanks being humiliated by Higuma. It's one thing to insult him, he's fine with it... it's another thing to hurt his friends, that's...

    Controversial If Asura as said by Kaido is a conquerors Haki attack, why does Haki God King Shanks not just materialize his arm back?

    That is just a bunch of synonyms. Drive and Bold don't mean the same thing. Conquer doesn't mean Ambition. The One Piece manga never defines it as any of this. Being bold, or having ambition has nothing to do with summoning limbs. Zoro was using Asura back in pre-skip, he wasn't a Haki user...

    Controversial If Asura as said by Kaido is a conquerors Haki attack, why does Haki God King Shanks not just materialize his arm back?

    King's Haki has never been described as the power to manifest or make your dreams real. Haki also has nothing to do with willpower, it's never been described as such. If Haki was willpower, then Haki would never deplete because willpower cannot be quantified, willpower is a choice to do...

    Controversial If Asura as said by Kaido is a conquerors Haki attack, why does Haki God King Shanks not just materialize his arm back?

    Asura is not Haki, it's a technique unrelated to Haki. All Zoro did was use Asura with King's Haki.

    General & Others Why no take seriously the man who defeated Kaido?

    He is taken seriously, being taken seriously and being feared aren't the same. The Gorosei were happy to anger Kaido rather than let Luffy awaken. Furthermore, we see Luffy couldn't hurt the Gorosei - it shows he still needs to grow in strength. He's respected, and he's being tested as well...
