1 - BM physical strength is the main key why she does all this crazy feats.
2 - She started using her hat Napoleon when she already Peaked.
3 - Never stated as swordman nor does she rely on swordmanship as main/sole source of her powers
4 - She was using a huge Gun during Rocks , are you also gonna say she's a Gunner/Sniper?
5 - Her biggest hype is her physical stats + the 2 main Homies stats
She can spam island level attacks with Zeus & Prometheus, fuse with them, fly, they are invincible ( only brook powers or natural counter can hurt them a little) ,she can manipulate the weather with them.
This woman :
>Used only her hands with Zeus & Prometheus from 5 till 18/20s
>Used a Gun with the 2 main homies during Rocks till 38 years ago
>Used a Gun or just her hands with homies till 25-20 years ago , was solid top tier already.
> started using Napoleon with the 2 homies till now. And can still brawl
You cant define her fighting style just coz you see her using napoleon (the only homie she had at her side ) vs Kaido.
She brawls and can do whatever with whatever weapon/thing and still be solid top tier.
It's only when she loses her physical aspect that's when her AP/DC/dura/endurance goes down ::
- Skinny Linlin with Homies => low top ( this is why Napoleon could be blocked briefly by Jinbei yet normal BM matches Kaido)
- Base Linlin => mid top tier. (top tier brawler) >with Napoleon => matches or overpower top tier wielders (of any weapon)
- Linlin with Zeus & Prom. (Fused) => upper-mid top tier (gains advatange or counters)
- Linlin with the 3 at max => upper-high top tier
Napoleon adds nothing much to BM except channelling her brute force while Zeus & Prometheus add mobility, AoE, bigger DC and Hax + better dura (they can shield her body or arms) also they can distract her enemies attention.
Zoro used rengoku Oni giri with a scythe
He still had 2 swords ... zoro attacks are swordmanship skills. Create from swordmanship.
Elbaf attacks aren't solely sword techniques, they are techniques that anyone can use, whether you are a swordman or brawler or axe man or sniper. Warriors who can use any weapon or technique , they dont depend on one set.
Wano : swordmanship skills and hakj are the core,
Elbaf : all around warriors, brute strength is the key.
The reason why Kizaru used a sword vs Ray is because Ray CoO wont allow Kizaru to move freely as light or spam light attacks also Ray isnt physically strong as WB so Kizaru can clash evenly and Ray CoO > Sick WB at MF.
Kizaru and BM aren't swordmen, they are all around fighters.
Shanks and Fuji are the swordmen of their groups.
