Kaidou " Speed Blitz " him.
Do you understand that.
Luffy was surprised that an attack even came after that attack.
Wrong.
Luffy also dodged kaidou strike, why get hit after that then? That's some dumb analogy there.
They both didn't tank, Kaidou stood stood up immediately and speed blitz luffy.
Whereas,
Luffy was deflating. Barely holding on. There's difference.
Luffy knew he won't last long.
Kinemon, Zoro, Law.
Luffy was on his last stand. Literally you just have to read my bro.
You are making this shit up at this point.
No dude.
Luffy would have ended up the same no matter what.
- Gear 4 time limit was up. 1 or 2 is the best attack he could manage.
- Kaidou hit him with more amped of version of himself, " Blood thristy mode ".
- Attack would have landed no matter what. Both were ready to attack and take each other attack at the same time.
Kaidou would have brushed it off, whereas Luffy couldn't have.
