Powers & Abilities Strongest Nation: Wano

#21
It doesn't matter if it's Wano or Mary Geoise or Marines or Pirates
Giant Fodders > Any Fodders

As for when it comes to Top Tiers of each Faction
God of Elbaf is so Strong that even Big Mom tries to Copy him
She wouldn't call her Attack "Spear of Elbaf" if She wasn't a Fan of their God

Ikoku, Hakoku, Gungnir, Hakai are all Techniques that are meant to Copy Spear of Elbaf (Their God is Named Elbaf & his Weapon is a Spear)
So it's obvious that his Own Version of the Attack is unlike anything We've seen so far, it's supposed to be Stronger than Hakoku & Hakai

However, the entire Royal Family of Elbaf are considered Gods & They only believe in Power, Elbaf Warriors only take orders from someone who is their Superior in Strength/Power, so expect all Leaders of Elbaf Royalty (Such as their Princes & Royal Guards & Army Commander & their God's No. 2 ... etc to be more Powerful than Dorry/Brogy and easily Top Tiers)

If People aren't convinced yet, just because They think a Single Village represents Elbaf's Power, remember that Oda said He only wrote One Piece cuz of Vikings, He was actually gonna write a Vikings Manga but after discovering that Vikings are a Type of Pirates, He made the Story Bigger & talked about Pirates in General, and his Cartoon Inspiration is Vicki The Viking

Their Family Crests drawn on Elbaf Ship indicates that there are Nine Islands of Elbaf, not just One.
And each Island has it's Villages & Clans & Leaders, and each Island has a Mountain that leads to a Sacred Land above, you can even spot those Mountains as Shadows in Big Mom's Flashback & Zoro also Confirmed that there in the World exists Nine Mountains that stand out

And it doesn't require a Genius to notice that They represent Nine Realms of Norse Mythology.
Saul also Confirmed in Robin's Flashback that Elbaf Village isn't only Place where Giants Exist, They are a Massive Society who for some reason don't care about Human Politics

Dorry/Brogy Crew are like just the Tip of The Icerberg & yet Oda loves to Hype them & made them entre a Battlefield where a Super Buster Call is happening & come out of it like it was just another Weekend, so imagine how much He gonna Hype the entirety of the Kingdom & it's Asgard & Royal Family & their God & possibly a Valhalla-Like Location, there is also Possibility that They have their own World Serpent (As mentioned by Dorry/Brogy & Hinted in Moon Drawings ... etc

Honestly, I don't remember exactly what happened in BM's flashback.

Were they the actual King though?

I have some hope for "Loki"

Can't be another Riku or Orochi.
Oden is the actual King of Wano, and soon Momonuske (future top tier). They strong. Orochi was fodder but he was stand in for Kaido, who was the real effective King of Wano.
Tho, this is easy to say in retrospect, I believe many people expected Orochi to be strong before his reveal. Point however was that the true leaders land of samurai were/are strong.

Riku was the king of a regular country of fodders. Not a valid comparison.

Giants are a country with Vikings vibe, they worship strength and love fighting.
Their leader won't be a weakling.
What about Sukiyaki then? Do you think he was strong?

I don't know. Was any info provided?

Other Daimyos were implied to be standard commander level fighters, similar to Hyogoro.
So Sukiyaki probably fell in that range too. Afterall he survived a coup attempt. He might also have shifted his focus to smithing as well, he forged Kitetsu and Ame no Habakiri after all.

For some reasons, Elbaf is considered the most powerful... Though I would like to know more on why, is it solely because of their lineage factor? But as we have seen, Dorry and Brogy, even though they don't use Haki nor they are in their prime, can withstand an attack from a Gorosei...

We know most of Wano isn't that powerful... Even the best Wanoan (if that's even a valid demonym) samurais (Hyogoro, Hotei, etc.) aren't that powerful...

Because they’re literally constantly hyped in the story and hyped by odas golden boy???

These two who terrorized the world and sworn friends of shanks are not the scabbards equivalent lmao
They’re good but that’s no where close to what a top-tier like Oden can do. Oden IS another golden boy. As I said, Loki and royal giants (who will be the main characters in Elbaf) exists. The captain duo are just taxi drivers for the SHs.

Lokis going to be a jobber giant in comparison to the literal legends of Elbaf aka Dory and Brogy who Giant Kids still idolize to this day without having met them.

No one gives a shit about Loki

This is just a poor comparison, Oden was the son of Sukiyaki and next in line.
Oden wasn’t the leader of Wano, and at no point is the shogun of Wano ever considered strongest. It’s a very valid comparison since your point is “lokis the king so he must be strongest.”

And since when do Pirates like Dory and Brogy bow to anyone?

Oden WILL be the leader of Wano, and the most significant figure in Wano as a royal bloodline. Loki’s not even the king, he’s the prince like Oden. I’m telling you, there is most likely an Odin and Thor in Elbaf.

What does the duo being pirates have to do with anything? When they’re in Elbaf then they will have to do what the royalty says. Scabbards like dukes were also pirates lol

You must he crazy to also think that a name like Loki will be fodder, Oda is the biggest viking lore nerd.

Oden was never the leader of Wano and never was going to be. He never wanted to be the leader.

Even Momo is far from the strongest in Wano, just like Carrots far from the strongest in Zou.

There’s no Odin and Thor thing, the hero of the giants are Dory and Brogy. Hajrudin already confirmed as much. Lokis going to be another lame king

Momo will be the strongest in Wano, we all know the kid’s potential as being the sperm of Oden.

Dory and Brogy being called heroes by Hajrudin means nothing, scabbards are also heroic figures to Wano citizens. Dory and Brogy have more similarities with Kinemon than an Oden level figure. We have yet to see the royal giants and Elbaf’s lore, why don’t you go wait before claiming the notion that Loki is a fodder lol. This is such basic storytelling too, who could have predicted that the strongest will also be the leader in the nation that is known for strength... Elbaf is based on viking lore and vikings follows meritocracy

When the narrator straight up says “Momos strength is lacking but he makes up for it with dedication” he’s never going to be the strongest in Wano.

And because if Loki was stronger than Dory and Brogy literally any giant or person would hype him but no one has ever. And yeah cause the two other nations known for their strength, are not ruled by the strongest of the nation lmao

Also in Viking history the Jarls, and leaders were very rarely the strongest

Damn, I was just going to make a thread regarding this, during this weekend.
I might still make it tho.

People don't realize that post Dresrossa Luffy was shocked at how strong dukes were, and Biege literally shat his pants sensing the monstrous power of base Cat.
And they weren't even the strongest (that's Kyoshiro).

Scabbards were great and they get shit on due to bad execution of the raid.
Will be waiting for that thread
Yeah, people forget that this Luffy was coming off fighting Doffy, not to derail this thread but I think either Neko/Inu beats Doffy

Dude, Momo has shown VOAT in his 8-year-old body. Zoro mentioned his body was also tough, he now has Kaido’s fruit. It’s as clear as glass that Momo will be the strongest. The boy is surely special like Oden, he just needs training.

This is not the first time that Oda has kept a strong ass figure a mystery. We didn’t know how strong Oden really was up until we were already in Wano. Then out of nowhere, Oden is revealed to be connected to every top-tier in existence. Plus, Dory and Brogy don’t even have that much hype, you’re overblowing it.

Vikings still follows meritocracy, you can’t look like a weakling to these barbarians. You’d die instantly and no one will follow you.
