bro... that shock /impact isn't even on the rooftop where zoro is...he did use haki but he got overwhelmed in mere seconds he even leaves the grip on wado in the panel right after that.. he gave up on holding the attack... what u see is the impact of the attack on the island my guy
Nope. After the shockwave is when we see Zoro holding back the attack. This is the sequence of events:
Mama and Kaido launch the attack:
Zoro then blocks the attack, and we see a massive shockwave:
The Yonkou are shocked that someone could stop their combination technique:
Kaido : Hmm ?
Big Mom : !!!
Zoro holds back the attack for a good while having a full conversation with the rest of the Supernova:
Zoro : Run away guys!!
Luffy : Zoro !
Zoro : You will be annihilated!
(While all of this is happening, Zoro is coughing up blood, showing that he's feeling the full impact of the attack).
We see the Supernova get out of the way, meanwhile, Zoro is still blocking:
The attack overpowers Zoro's block and explodes:
This chapter has shown insane DC from him
It was a combination attack with Mama. It's not clear that Kaido can replicate such DC by himself. He contributed half of the power to the technique, but the technique might be the sum of its parts.
And he's just getting started
He's been serious all along. This is just the first chapter focusing on their fight since he went into Hybrid Form.
now the main fight will finallly begin between him and the WG
I doubt he faces all five of them. Zoro will probably sit out of the fight for a bit:
- Law asks him if he's still alive in the aftermath of the attack:
- Zoro is shown panting again:
- Killer asks him if he's able to perform the combo attack to remove Mama:
Killer : Can you do it Roronoa ?
- Zoro replies that there's no alternative, so he will just have to:
Zoro : There is no alternative, i must go!
- At the end of the chapter, he removes his bandana and is shown coughing up blood:
Luffy may also take a nap after tanking Ragnarok. I'm expecting Hybrid Kaido to face off against Kidd, Killer and Law for some time, while the Strawhats recover.
I cant fucking wait to see him go all out holy shit.
If he's holding back Awakening, he probably wouldn't bring it out for a few more chapters yet.
