By now, we've all seen plenty of memes about Tama beating up Hold'em, and getting revenge for the plier incident.
However, I've yet to see a full explanation of what actually occurred, here, and, since I'm the crazy fucker who made a thread about Tama taming Giant Beasts in Elbaf and becoming Yonkou Commander level to begin with, I figured I might as well be the person to do this.
The question I had initially was: "How did Tama free herself from Hold'em?" At first, I assumed some Ninja trick, but, the answer's a lot simpler.
In 1133's Cover, we can see that Tama is being held in Hold'em's right arm, with her legs near the Lion, Kamijiro's, head.
In 1135, we can see the Lion, Kamijiro, is now bleeding from the upper left side of his head. At first, I assumed this was the sword Hold'em held dropping to cut Kamijiro, however, Kamijiro's eyes are whited out.
If you recall, Hold'em would often argue with the Lion, and then punch Kamijiro, injuring himself greatly. The gag here, is that since the Lion is were Hold'em's crotch should be, he was punching himself in the nuts.
So, in order to beat Hold'em, Tama kicked him in his SMILE Lion nutsack, and, after Hold'em let her go in pain, smashed him in his real face with a Kunoichi kick.
At first, this might seem simply crass, but, this is indeed Ninja art learned from Master Shinobu, Tama's Sensei.
In Chapter 933, 200 chapters before Hold'em held Tama hostage in 1,133, Shinobu demonstrated her Ninpo: Ball-Crusher technique.
In other words, Shinobu has been training Tama... to kick people in the nuts.
What was Luffy's condition for Tama joining the Straw Hat Pirates?
I think defeating a Headliner with Ninjutsu amounts to "keeping up with Ninjutsu training."
"But, CoC, Luffy wouldn't want his crew to be full of people who kick other pirates in the nuts-"
Will Tama low-diff Buggy by kicking him in the Buggy Balls? We've already seen how effective this attack is, from Luffy.
Does this mean Tama is already capable of defeating a Yonkou?
Who knows, but, one thing is clear:
Kurozumi O-Tama is a dangerous individual, who has been trained in combat arts most would find unseemly. If you're a pirate, you best protect ALL of your jewels, because Kurozumi O-Tama is lurking in the night, ready to snatch the treasure, and then smash her foes in the... ahem.
Sugoi, Oda. Peak Fiction.
