Chapter Discussion Imu cannot leave Pangea Castle for long

[milluki]

Many have declared that the popular head canon that Imu was somehow confined to Pangea Castle was disproven. They should reread the chapter. Imu can indeed leave his castle, but at what cost? The Elders know Imu's singular strength, yet they were still panicking.

When Imu arrived in Elbaf, he instantly started bleeding

He won't be able to stay in Elbaf for long. No real fight will take place now. Instead we will see why Imu didn't intervene much with his real body in the last 800 years. Why he couldn't. Maybe he won't be able to stop coughing blood and some Holy Knight takes him back before he succumbs to whatever curse or virus he is affected by.

It might be that he’s not used to the surface’s air but yeah this is clearly a device to give him a time limit

Yes, this is why Imu is nerfed already. Gorosei and HK are also not in full power far from Imu

Such a boring plot...

This seems perfect opportunity for Imu to be worn down so when he returns, Garling kills him.

 

[ShinichiMugi]

You are right.

So i guess that whenever the final fight with Imu will be,it must happen at Marejois to see Imu in full force?

The Abyss Mark should have put him under Imu's control totally. Not even Harald (who was alot stronger than Garlic) could resist.

Luffy will have to fight his way into the palace, just like in Dressrosa.

This might be similar to the skypia arc. The Strawhats had adjust to the lighter altitude, but in reverse when your diving the lungs are shrinking. Maybe that's why Imu can't stay for too long. It's just a stretching theory.

 

[Welkin]

Right on the money

 

[Dettles]

Were people really thinking this wasn't the case? The whole thing was whether Luffy and Co, could hold out long enough for Imu to have to go back to his Palace.

 

[Loki D. Terror]

This was basic reading comprehension. Imu has some kind of limit hence gorosei were worried.

Don't do this to yourself, the Knights of Gods have literal slave contracts preventing them from rebelling, ignoring the fact that Garling wouldn't rebel even if he has free will, lol.

I don't actually believe that Garling's intentions are to rebel, but I also don't think the seal is all encompassing. Meaning they don't ALL die if he does, or that he controls them without exerting his control. Anyone who would rebel despite the contract, up to this point, wouldn't have a chance because he's been in control of himself and isolated the entire time
