Powers & Abilities The actual ultimate thread on swordsmanship - Part 1

When Luffy and Kaido AdCoC no touch, there's literally no difference if you put Kaido's Club in Luffy's hand and have Kaido bare fist, nothing changes
Disagree. Luffy would actually be weaker using club instead of his bare fists because he's a lot more skilled barehanded, and Kaido would be weaker bare-fisted instead of a club, because his club is supposedly of high quality and he's good with it.

I have no idea why you'd think that lmao. There's absolutely zero hints, much less evidence, that ACoC somehow means your skills and weapons no longer matter toward the output.

Their weapons/bodies are STILL the conduit of the attack. Their skills with it, the quality of the weapon/body, strength, speed etc, etc, still matter. Immensely so. For the output of the attack.
 
When Luffy and Kaido AdCoC no touch, there's literally no difference if you put Kaido's Club in Luffy's hand and have Kaido bare fist, nothing changes, you can give Kaido a Sword, nothing changes at all.. AdCoC doesn't stem from the Blade, it doesn't go through the Sword, it's around all the user's personal space with or without a weapon.. When AdCoC no touch is being used, Swords or any accessory of any sorts are completely irrelevant in the clash..
While AdCoC itself bypasses durability, weapons still need to withstand repeated use. Zoro swords especially Enma and Wado are Gradeswords that can withstand and channel Haki without breaking. If Kaido didn’t use a durable weapon like his kanabo, it might be destroyed under constant Haki pressure.
