So much for Luffy having his "Sky-splitting moment" against Blackbeard. Luffy is pretty much Yonko level at this point. I don't know why Oda gave Luffy such a massive increase in power. I mean where's the stakes against future opponents? It feels like Oda is rushing to finish One Piece. This arc is also going to end soon. The only major fights we have left are Raizo vs Fukurokuju, and Sanji/Zoro vs Queen and King. Also Big Mom, but I'm of the opinion that she won't go down in this arc.
Well, for starters what are you looking for?

- beating one Yonkou after much help doesnt cement you as Yonkou level in public eye also in all reader's eye

- if it's stakes you're looking for, i can say for like a hundred percent certainty that Blackbeard will be stronger than anyone in this world. And Imu will be even stronger.

- is it a massive increase in power that you're unsatisfied with? Well imo on the contrary it didn't even make sense that Rayleigh didn't even say anything about his captain (Roger) being able to imbue his attacks with AdvCoC. Luffy is a CoC specialist, all his efforts are converged on his "will to stand above others, impose his will on others" (CoC). If Zoro get CoA specialization due to his affinity towards strengthening his sword, it's a deserving powerup.

Same as AdvCoC for Luffy, Luffy trains his CoC the most since timeskip since it's his specialization. It's two years and Luffy didnt even train anything else other than his haki branches, different from Zoro who also trained for sword techniques aside from haki branches.

If only Ray didnt have amnesia about Roger's AdvCoC, Luffy would have figured out the theory of CoC Coating since the timeskip began, having much time and luxury to master it between arcs. Resulting in complete mastery since WCI or since Wano.

And that would be way too powerful for some, since we're gonna be so sure that he will not be stopped by anyone other than Yonkous and Admirals since the time of his mastery.

But Oda decided to make Rayleigh amnesic about his own captain's ability, and tone down - restrict Luffy's powerlevel until he defeated multiple times by Emperors, with haki bloom as an excuse. It's a way shittier storytelling in current scenario, since Ray's teachings didnt make sense.

But the more coherent storytelling (Ray telling Luffy about Roger's AdvCoC - Luffy training it like crazy between arcs to figure out the mechanics - Luffy oneshotting Hody Jones, two-shotting Doflamingo - threeshoting Cracker and Kata, stalemating Big Mom due to his talent in learning) will result in Luffy being Yonkou level since start of WCI or Wano right away...and i'm not sure thats what you want.
 
Big Mom is losing to Luffy post Wano lol.
No she's getting a closure arc in Elbaf as an important character but that's about it
Her power, pirate status and so on will be broken by Kidd and Law. She'll be defeated in a fight, which will make WG, journals etc.. doubt about her role in the upcoming wave and since Kaido will be clearly defeated (on his land, with his crew etc..) by the end of this war they'll assume she nearly (if not already) down for the count too.
Then, in Elbaf, we'll get a closure with that. Linlin will interact with the giants, the Big Mom Pirates scission will come to an end (Perospero defeated in Onigashima and Katakuri ready to take the lead) and Linlin will close her pirate career in a more symbolical and emotional way. After that she'll be definitely down for the count.
Still, as a fighter, she'll be defeated now in this raid by Kidd and Law.

Zoro and Sanji tag teaming yonko commanders is Oda further highlighting fact that they're Luffy's "wings" . So basically this is confirmation that Luffy>>Zoro>Sanji :kayneshrug:
 
@playa4321 What also doesn’t make sense is how it is stated in this chapter that exiting Sulong did make Inu and Neko exhausted, but Jack and Pero somehow couldn’t finish them off in time. Remember in WCI when Sulong made Carrot so exhausted that she had to sleep for the rest of the arc? Inu and Neko used Sulong on the roof for a much longer time, and even got KOed by Kaido. How are they even able to fight after not only getting KOed by Kaido, but also suffering from having their stamina drained from fighting in Sulong for so long? What’s even more ridiculous is that they both suffered from the Sulong stamina drain once more in this chapter, but still could keep on going.
 
Lol you do realize that Perospero was able to hold his own against one of the strongest minks and Scabbard who was in Sulong form, and was very close on defeating Neko when he lost his Sulong form.

For someone who imo isn't anywhere near Jack's level, that really is impressive.
Yea I know that cool but it still was enough to match neko Sulong completely lol
 
@Paperchampion23 @playa4321 How is this the attack that beats Jack? Ulti got pierced by Big Mom’s Maser Cannon and could still fight afterwords, but Jack, who should have much more endurance, goes down to being stabbed through the abdomen
You guys overrated the fuck out of Maser Canon. Literally Radical Beam 2.0. That's a long range/speed move.

I'd say the CQC attack she used on P1 was stronger than the attack she used on Ulti

 
Btw Kidd and Law still have that much energy to fight BM for this long of a duration? They didnt even rest? I applaud them :funky:


...i like Law more than Kidd tho. Hope Kidd shows uniqueness in his powers other than the robot

LODA literally makes his mistakes so fucking OBVIOUS, but people still are defending it and that SoB thinks he is creating a masterpiece..
