Questions & Mysteries How much of a factor were the bombs in Big Mom’s defeat?

[Fisher Tiger]

I honestly believe the bombs don’t change much here. She needed to heal to keep on fighting Kid and Law, and she tried to scare them with her bluff so she can take their souls. Law and Kid saw through her facade and were confident it was over for her without even knowing about the bombs.

I feel like with all the damage she took from Kid and Law, she would’ve been knocked out if she fell into the hole Law made, mainly because of how deep the hole is, making the fall much more devastating, but also because how she was vulnerable towards the end. Just look at what a mere bomb did to her:

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

Not much I'd say.

Pretty Significant considering Yamato thought it would Kill Everybody on Onigashima.
i wouldnt be suprised if she's seen them in action.
If Marco couldn't Face tank it i doubt anybody Could

 

[Fn Lucci]

Literally before the last bomb went off she thought about how she wasn't done

Take out the bombs and the outcome doesn’t change. The moment she hits the ground in the hole Law made she would’ve been out cold.

The bombs are still on Onigashima btw. Idk what fell there, but it's not the majority of the bombs Yamato was freezing.

 

[Surgeon of death]

Nothing changes she still gets Knock off the island

Linlin took massive damage from kid and law. Linlin was already using CoC against Kid and Law off-screen, sometime before they used awakening. In 1031, Linlin sacrificed lifespan to power up against them. In 1038 she was already tired even before the two used their attacks. In 1039, it was revealed that the 1038 attacks broke her bones, forcing her to use even more lifespan to heal.

Then at the end of 1039, Linlin took attacks far stronger than the 1038 attacks which broke her bones.

Non factor. Big Mom had lost the fight the moment she got silenced and sent packing. She was just desperately trying to cling onto whatever she could, tried stealing souls and got denied.

The bombs are like the cherry on top to a massive L for Big Mom. She looked for an out and got bombed instead. It was just a classic trope of a villain being ugly and desperate during their last hours only to get bombarded with unfortunate events.

Couldn’t have said it any better

Multiple island sized explosions are a “non-factor” for BM? Damn I didn’t realize her endurance was just that impressive

Non-factor as in it wouldn’t change the outcome. Her endurance is beastly tho

Yeah

She was done dirty but I feel not that dirty

Yes, the bombs were unnecessary so Oda made sure to include them

 

[Roo]

She was going to fall down a huge crater with no way to save herself. She was done for

 

[Sir Yasheen]

She was going to fall down the crater, but she’d be able to stand up and fight still. The bomb did insane damage even looking comparable to Kid and Law Ultimate move

 

[Jailer]

They were a pretty big factor, without them Big Mom would still not be defeated by Kid and Law.

 

[Fn Lucci]

Yeah the Silent Room would have dissipated eventually, so she'd be able to get the homies back

 

[CbShadow]

The bombs are the reason she was defeated. They did at least 60% of the work and damage.

We saw Big Mom's condition after Law and Kid's attack and she still wasn't defeat. She was able to continue fighting.

 

[Jailer]

Yeah the Silent Room would have dissipated eventually, so she'd be able to get the homies back

Logically ability wise once the room would have vanished she wouldn't even need her homies to call back just create a rock homie to pull her out of the crater.

Or if you remember back on WCI when a powered Zeus attack made a rather big crater that send BM inside, she got out of there by simply using her strength walking through it
