Chapter Discussion How did Sommers get up?

#22
They are probably un-killable till the immortality ability itself is taken away from them.
I mean mofo was dissected in half and albeit with great difficulty still managed to piece himself together.
Reckon whatever Scopper is doing is simply interfering with/slowing down their regen so they can't recover instantly and also feel pain from the attacks. To take them out you prolly need to slice them into a million pieces, separate the pieces and then bury them underground or something lol so similar to Hidan in Naruto. Either that or you have to find a way to cancel out Imu's mark somehow

Immortality probably doesn't have a permanent counter. Like sugar fruit , Unless imu is taken out.

- Gaban Haki residue was still there which stopped the Regen for a moment. But that's all ig.

- Moment gaban was taken out , Sommers started to Regenerate

Sommers only started recovering/getting up when Imu gave him a direct order so it's possible Imu re-started the regen but it was not explicitly stated.
Or Gaban can only delay the regen, so even if straw hats learn from him it doesn't completely trivalize this ability.
Gaban fought sommers long ago and couldnt kill him its clearly it was for a short amount of time the counter

We saw Imu's magic has the exact same effect on him than on Brogy after he lost his hand, it ignores inflicted injuries as if they don't exist.
 
#38
Obviously Gaban can counter regen thats why Chopper went to ask him and we actually saw on panel Sommers couldnt regen after gaban attacked him
But how did sommers get up? Did imu heal him? Or you can simply put them together similar to how Law's fruit work?
I think we saw the mechanism quite well.

Imu can repair individuals that are under their influence (demon or 'basic' HK - more to that at the end)


Broggy's arm was separated but after getting influenced, the problem was fixed. His main body's functionality given. Even though a part of it misses still.

Sommers was quite out of order. And imu, being in close proximity brought him back to the original state. Without the pentagram, since they're already connected and the Imu power can channel directly to him.

That said, I suppose once individuals are made evil, they're technically dead and it's their souls or whatever that's controlling the body. The soul that has been corrupted. Dorry and Broggy won't be coming back. That will be a key in defeating them - they need to be eradicated fully. Maybe by an ikkoku homage in respect to them. Gaban might give this crucial info once he returns later.


Regarding the HKs, I suppose they have a full demon form as well. You probably can learn to suppress the demon stuff and turn it down so you look like a normal person (no horns, bulging veins, wings, normal size). It's certainly convenient and would dramatize the final battles on Elbaf (or anywhere else) even further.

There are inconsistencies everywhere tbh.
Sommers is too old. What happened to Decreases life span?
I believe you pay with all your life, so after Imu's power beign removed you will die.
Post automatically merged:

Also even though Sommers is growing his pieces back, the damage from Gaban remained. Sommers can’t fully heal from the damage Gaban inflicted on him.
He regrow his srm, also it was interesting, that regeneration here look special, same what happened with Saturn.

When Logia regenerates it "grew back" lost arms etc, but with Gorosei/ Sommers regen their arm, body parts start grow in the air(not from the body).
So when Brogy became immortal with ripped off arm, his arm continue to be attached from the body.

I believe Imu creates a state of body, that can't be changed, maybe with his Void powers. You will regenerate into that state no matter what happen to you. This state is the key to break their regen.
