Kuma's Speed

[FullMetalLamps]

Bartholomew Kuma doesn't have light speed shockwaves, that's a misconception people have.

The only thing Light Speed about Kuma is that he REPELS attack at light speed; the projectiles themselves aren't lightspeed. So it's not a hyperbole, it's just the wording confuses people, and OP fanboys used this as an attempt to upgrade his and Zoro's speed.

His lasers are also supposedly light-speed as they're based off of Kizaru, but there's no evidence of them being light speed except for a statement from a pirate that had quotation marks around the word laser.

His speed should be changed to Speed: At least Massively Hypersonic (Got in between Silvers Rayleighand Kizaru while they were in a heated duel. He repels things at the Speed of Light; the projectiles should be Hypersonic+-MHS.) Or something along those lines.

You should ask Camero to comment here.

That still make him with light speed combat speed since as he claim he move his hands and repels the air at lightspeed,and Zoro was able to react\perceive it

Moving his hands doesn't make him light speed combat speed and that's not what happens anyway.

The only thing that should be light speed in One Piece should be Kizaru and the speed of how fast Kuma repels things.

Zoro only reacted to what is most likely hypersonic+-massively hypersonic speeds.

Well it's likely a hyperbole hence the "hyperbole" part in the profile.

It could be, but I don't doubt that the reflection speed would be SOL.

As long as people understand that the shockwaves he create aren't SOL, then that's fine. The wording of his profile makes it sound like he is capable of firing SOL shockwaves, when really, they're HS-MHS.

 

[Antvasima]

Has anybody informed Cameron about this thread yet?

 

[LordGinSama]

I'll quote Cin here since me him and another user brought this up earlier. "Yeah, the SoL is on Kuma's profile, but it's likely a hyperbole anyways. Or it's actually Teleportation." And yes the OP as informed Cin.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. It would be best if he comments here and is willing to adjust the profile.

 

[CinCameron20]

Basically, Kuma has stated the air repels at light-speed, but that's hyperbolic and repelling himself has clearly been displayed as faster than anything else he has performed.

The speed description on his profile is fine as it is, just that Kuma himself has made his powers seem very vague.

It should likely be changed to Unknow regarding his speed when repelling himself seeing as how SoL is hyperbolic and it looks like Teleportation, but we can't just assume that.

But I will think about what his speed description should be changed to since it's still fairly outdated.

Okay. Thank you for the help.
