Is enel light speed

[isee]

Enel’s “lightning produces thunder”, Nami’s statement [Nami is a very knowledgeable navigator so she should know key information about Lightning and Thunder.] implies that in One Piece - hearing thunder means the air expanded at light speed. [Note: Thunder is air rapidly expanding around a lightning bolt due to the heat.] [Ch 275]

This was back up in an SBS


Speed of Enel’s electricity argument - Lightspeed

Since Enel is literally Electricity this means his electricity doesn’t need a conductor like a wire to carry electric current therefore this argument still applies.

It’s the electromagnetic wave rippling through the electrons that propagates at close to the speed of light. The dimensions of the wire and electrical properties like its inductance affect the exact propagation speed, but usually it will be around 90 per cent of the speed of light – about 270,000 km/s.

No

 

[isee]

No

Any reason? Oda said his lighting is light speed

 

[Sus]

Would be a massive outlier since he was blitzed by pre-timeskip base luffy

Not really considering that right after this arc finished, he was able to dodge light speed beams from Foxy.

He was able to dodge them but isn't FTL

I agree if enels physical speed < his DF speed

Although this is true, that's only relativistic+, not light speed

Just wanted to clarify that quickly

Doesn't work, and what's the purpose anyway? Even kid luffy is way beyond sonic speed

 

[Martini]

I mean that I've seen a different translation that mentions sonic speed instead of light speed. We need raws to be sure.

If Luffy have rev from skypiea he got 7 speed upgrade
Rob speed blitz Luffy
Luffy than in base was able to keep up with rob and his beast form
Gear 2 is 10x multipier
100x faster in 3D2Y (it is canon)
And in gear4 he is 75x faster
Katakuri was faster than him he kept up with him in g4 and then Luffy got stronger somehow he was able to keep up with him in base
And snakeman is 9x faster than g4
Kaido speedblitz Luffy
Luffy was able to keep up with him in base
G5 is 8x stronger than gears

He should be mftl with these upgrade

Idk where most of these come from
But thats for another crt anyway

It seems to be a mistranslation, which is common when it comes to lightning in japanese, as far as I can see it says the air expanded at the speed of sound, and not the speed of light

音速 = speed of sound
光速 = speed of light

Though if someone wants to double-check then make a request in the translations request thread

Bruh viz is not trustworthy now

 

[Purgy]

Bruh viz is not trustworthy now

They get most things right but yeah, shouldn't just believe everything Viz translates as they've had a few errors before

Though I could be wrong in this instance

 

[Sus]

This doesn't refute the second point tho
