Character Discussion Coby is going to be Luffys rival based on the fact that he ties to being classified as the earth diety.

[Ssg super suit coby]

Not a very long theory since everything is straight foward.

Biblical definition of the name coby: A diminutive of Jacob, Coby derives from the Hebrew Ya'aqov and later Latin Iacobus and means “supplanter,” “Yahweh (God) may protect,” and “holder of heel.”

Japanese defintion of the name coby: Supplanter, God's door, God may protect, tortoise etc


Even in English, Greek, Hebrew, Dutch, Swahili, Latin, Japanese it has the same meaning: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kobe_(given_name)

To add:

As theorised by others upon the forecasting in Skypeia, if there are 4 god devil fruits then, Coby will eat the Mythological Zoan Hito no mi Model: Earth God Kurma. Luffy ate the Mythological Zoan Nika Devil Fruit and gained the powers of The Sun God. There are stated to be 4 deities.. The Sun God, Earth God, Rain God and Forest God. Coby's name translates to "Turtle", and the World Turtle is known as the God of The Earth who protects the World. Just as Coby is a Marine who protects the World and his Hometown is called "Shells Town'.. For Coby to equal the Pirate King, he too must step into the domain of the Gods.


Lastly to put the nail in the coffin for the theory we also have this:

Kurma, (Sanskrit: “Tortoise”) one of the 10 avatars (incarnations) of the Hindu god Vishnu. In this incarnation Vishnu is associated with the myth of the churning of the ocean of milk.

Name makes the fanfic wrong, change name to get some credibility

How so? Wouldn't him being the world tortoise make him the possible wielder of the mythical earth fruit? It literally adds to the theory

Interesting theory, it's likely Oda would take a few inspirations here and there however turtle/tortoise has to be the lamest zoan ever.

Won't deny that a mythical zoan tortoise sounds lame lol.

 

[vikas]

leave it bro...we all can see how relevant Coby is now. He has been falling behind smoker too as he doesn't even get involved with the arcs much. Even his rescue which we thought maybe could be done through SHs making him part of the arc like Drake..is no longer the case.

 

[Jesse Pinkman]

Dont think too much coby is friendly and kind hearted it wont be like garp-roger rivalry .

Smoker /Fujitora makes sense they like fighting against luffy .

1. Garp and rodger were friendly and respected each other hence why rodger asked garp to raise his kid.

2. If luffy were to be in the same situation as rodger coby would be the first person luffy goes to.

3. Garp and rodger were literally in the same age bracket while smoker is basically 20 years older than luffy. And fuji is 30 or more. They are not classified as being in the same generation as luffy however coby is

seems like an awful reach there mate

Not 20 years older, but 17, don't exaggerate. Smoker is still young, he is 36.

I doubt Koby would be alive after etting hit with G5 adv Coc and Ryou.

 

[Ssg super suit coby]

20 is only a 3 years difference from 17. Not an exaggeration at all

 

[SUN Smoker Usopp Nami]

You give too much importance to age. Smoker is 17 years older than Luffy, while Fujitora is 18 years older than Smoker. Luffy is a very young man, Smoker is a young man. That's all.

 

[Blother Fertitta]

Expectations: SSG Super Soldier Coby stronger than a Vice Admiral

Reality: Coby becomes Blackbeard’s favorite twink Femboy fucktoy

 

[Salah WG]

There aren't Four Gods DFs according to Skypiea Arc
That's just Fan-Made Idea

Ugh bs. It's a direct correlation within luffy not being in the same generation as smoker or fuji. Individuals of that age are not luffys rivals. They are instead person luffy must surpass that already are high tiers. It's why smoker cannot be luffys rival since he is of the same age caliber of those whom are supposed to be high or top tiers but isn't.

Smoker is a year or so younger than shanks.

3 years younger than mihawk

Also a year or so younger than blackbeard.

The other 3 are the power gap in which luffy is trying to amount to surpassing. Smoker however is not in that tier. Coby has an excuse because he is as young as luffy and life luffy had room to grow. The room for coby and luffy to grow are higher than smokers since none of them are even in their 20s yet have more recognition than smoker lol

 

[MonochromeYoru]

Nope. He will never be a rival. He's a luffy admirer. That basically eliminated him from the start. And he's multitudes weaker. He will be an admiral in epilogue though.

rival
/ˈrʌɪvl/
Learn to pronounce

noun

a person or thing competing with another for the same objective or for superiority in the same field of activity.




Can rivals be best friends?


It is definitely possible to have a rivalry and friendship simultaneously, but it requires a shift in mindset. There is one thing to be cautious of: the order of the relationship matters. It's easy to move from a cooperative to a competitive relationship but transitioning from rivals to collaborators is a bit trickier.

Not all rivals are enemies. Not all rivalries are bitter. Some are just competitive healthily, with both the parties having high regard, admiration, and mutual respect for each other.

stating that one camot admire their rival is 1. Contradictory since what made you want to be their rival in the first place is because you respect their energy, vigor, potential in the same vein as yours. Hence why most shounen rivals are friends/best friends, defend each other etc etc. So to rule out coby becuase he admires luffy is actually stupid

Do you refer Coby to the Luffy generation and Smoker to the Fujitora generation?
Unfortunately, at the moment, Luffy and Smoker are much closer to each other than Luffy and Coby. Luffy and Coby are not rivals or friends. I think Coby will become an admiral in the future, and I want it. But their relationship with Luffy is a huge disappointment.
