That means nothing to what I've talked about... just you deflecting. You say I can't power scale, don't project yourself onto me. It's pathetic.
Luffy is given enemies that are going to challenge him... once he's beaten them he's not going to be challenge by them again. If he went against Cracker now, the fight would be a 180... he'll know how to deal with him.
We saw that with crocodile... already prepared...
Enough of your shit takes.
I say you cant power scale because it is a fact, I wasnt debating it.
Absolutely I don't deny that, but the gap is so exponentially massive that at this stage Luffy would still be supposed to annihilate Pica if a fight occurred, notwithstanding the fact that bypassing his rock body would have been massively harder in the past for him. That being said I'm one of the biggest supporters of the Zoro - Luffy close power level paradigm. In the past I thought Zoro was stronger, today I put them extremely close, possibly favoring Zoro over Luffy, still.
He cant bypass the rock... Internal destruction doesnt have mountain range... He still has to chop down the mountain hit by hit.
That will not stop Pica, he will be long gone in the ground and reforming the golem. Luffy has to cut him off from the ground, in 1 hit.
Elizebello with King's Punch, the strongest punch in the world by far, is unable to do that.
One Piece will end and Luffy will still be ineffective against Pica, that's how bad of a match-up he is for him.
Improving the strength of his punches simply achieves nothing against people who dont take hits with their own bodies.
Regarding Zoro and Luffy, the author probably wants to treat them as equal through portrayal but he is doing a bad job at it.
Zoro's combat is simply a lot better, as are his feats.
