One Piece General Discussion: Elbaph

"Marco = An Admiral" is incorrect. He is slightly below, as he cannot overpower.

Definitely equal with kizaru
 
"Marco = An Admiral" is incorrect. He is slightly below, as he cannot overpower.

It's not marginally weaker to the point he can't damage him, don't get me wrong, but weaker enough that a straight battle is guaranteed to go to Kaido
Marco send Kizaru Away, Marco Damaging Kuzan, Also Akainu too but Somehow Akainu can Resist His Haki.

Sending someone away doesn't mean you're evenly matched.
He never seriously damaged Kuzan, and damaging alone is not evidence for equal AP, just approximate.
Akainu likely used the "Katakuri strat" to avoid damage.
 
It's literally stated in the Databook he has the power to fight the admirals (I think)
And he does, hence why he is 6-B, lmao.
You're mistaking "not equal" with "Absolute fodder".

Marco is strong as shit, and his power is more than enough to fight an Admiral, but still, individually, he is not equal to an Admiral. To exemplify my point, if Marco were to fight Akainu, for example, Akainu would most likely win, but not before being crippled too.

Akainu is much different from kizaru... Akainu is shown as the strongest admiral and is now fleet admiral
 
That's the only reason to dodge it

Any other attacks from Zoro posed no major risks.

Zoro isn't as strong as Base Kaido, otherwise he should be able to 1v1 him, and come on top due skill.
And either way you're wrong about Enma drawing out conqueor's, and that attack itself had no evidence of conqueor's coating due to the lack of lightning trails.

That attack should be comparable to the Tatsumaki he performed later which overpowered Kaido's attack and cut his scales, even if attacks on that level aren't a major risk to Kaido Big Mom seemingly thinks they're worth dodging, which may be more indicative that she viewed the attack as a risk compared to herself.

Zoro's AP can't be above Base Kaido because he didn't 1v1 him? When did him or any of the rooftop supernova get the opportunity to 1v1 Base Kaidou when there's 2 Yonko and 4 other Supernova who were all trying to defeat him, not to mention the fact he immediately transformed in the first chapter of fighting.

He still was able to slash his chest open even though he's fodder
One Piece characters for the most part (and especially humans) don't have passive durability, which is why people get hurt by bullets when they have no business getting hurt by bullets. Not to mention, it was a gag
 
Any source? Like where did you get the SBS 100 info from? How does Oden cutting the Mountain God so cleanly in half that it didn't recognize it was cut and that's why it's parts could be reattached back together, make sense? Wouldn't him severing its cells with the cut make more sense?
There's no translated source of it around, strangely enough. I found the french one a while ago and translated it on this thread.
But also yeah, I think it was going to be accepted as limited biological manipulation via severing the cells on such a high level that even after a WHILE, the boar could still be reattached, or something like that.
There's no way they reattached that boar minutes after when they were saving the people and all around- also the factor of the fact that there's no technology in wano capable of reattaching blood arteries, veins, muscle tissue, etc- it just implies that the cut was so beyond perfect that you could just REATTACH the thing with regular stitches, similiar to Law's room almost. But less, since Law doesn't require stitching and all that.
 
Why is the BB over 30 Teratons calculation not listed on the OP page if the calculation was accepted? And because the Multipliers that reach until island level are still appearing on the page?

Not yet. They're working on the God tiers in the post timeskip thread. Once that's applied they'll move on to speed.
WB'S 30+ TT and the new 62 TT calcs will be added soon enough.
No, because the factor that gives Luffy this value isn't Physical Strength, it's Ryou, and Haoshoku, both which doesn't get multiplier by G4
Those are still things that are being used in BASE. Luffy's round 2 with Kaido, despite already having Ryuou and Haoshoku, was still ended too early with Luffy knocked out because he wasn't strong enough.
Round 3 Luffy is just stronger physically and that's why he can handle Kaido up close now. If Luffy had Ryuou and Haoshoku coating and was as strong as he was in Dressrosa, would you still say he's only THIS strong because of Haoshoku and Ryuou, despite the fact that that exact same factor on round 2 didn't matter one bit because he got KO'd and called weak by Kaido anyway?
Luffy's matching Kaido PHYSICALLY. CoC Coating is only to leave lasting damage on Kaido. (Similiar to how Kaido kmplied only CoC could scar him based on the Ashura showing). If Luffy's physical attributes increase, then his current value based on the fact that he's fighting mano e mano against Hybrid Kaido would be multiplied by whatever G4's multiplier is.

The ONLY way this could get disproven is if Kaido himself stays in hybrid and still handles G4, then it'd show that Ryuou and Hao are the only thing holding Luffy's fight up 'till now. But if Kaido has to power up to match G4 Luffy, then there's no doubt he got stronger between fighting Hybrid in base vs in G4.

Also the fact that even after mastering Ryuou, Luffy in base did little to Dragon Kaido in round 1, yet he goes Gear Fourth and Kidd suddenly comments on how much stronger he got and that he can damage Kaido. Clearly his physical factor matters. Adding to that is the fact that G4 itself has been hyped up by Luffy FOR ITS HAKI, even saying Boundman wouldn't lose to Katakuri's block Mochi when it's down to armament during their fight. Restricting Luffy's physical value this heavily based on very little evidence for it and more than enough AGAINST it is a little absurd.
 
WB, not BB. The feat where he yelled and tilted the oceans I believe.
Ah I think I recall that one. I think I added it when I updated the verse's Calculation Section:

Oh boy...

Luffy's Haki wasn't strong enough, yes.
Round 3 Luffy is just stronger physically and that's why he can handle Kaido up close now.
Or Kaido is weaker?
Or Luffy's Haki grew stronger?
Or any other reason?

Kaido stated his use of Haoshoku was poor, not that he was weak. And he wouldn't be this strong in Dressrosa because his Haki was mid, but his Haoshoku Coating would still allow for him to hurt Kaido regardless.
Luffy's matching Kaido PHYSICALLY.
He isn't.
CoC Coating is only to leave lasting damage on Kaido. (Similiar to how Kaido kmplied only CoC could scar him based on the Ashura showing). If Luffy's physical attributes increase, then his current value based on the fact that he's fighting mano e mano against Hybrid Kaido would be multiplied by whatever G4's multiplier is.
G4 only multiplies impact based on spring-based abilities. Physical impact.

It does make his Haki stronger, but the multiplier does not apply to THAT. It's a multiplier that comes from the impact, the Haki amp is unquantifiable
The ONLY way this could get disproven is if Kaido himself stays in hybrid and still handles G4, then it'd show that Ryuou and Hao are the only thing holding Luffy's fight up 'till now. But if Kaido has to power up to match G4 Luffy, then there's no doubt he got stronger between fighting Hybrid in base vs in G4.
Luffy used G4 multiple times in his battle with Kaido, lmao.
Also the fact that even after mastering Ryuou, Luffy in base did little to Dragon Kaido in round 1, yet he goes Gear Fourth and Kidd suddenly comments on how much stronger he got and that he can damage Kaido.
That's false? Base Luffy never attacked Dragon Kaido during Round 1.


Chapter 1000, and 1001:
  • Base Luffy punches Base Kaido with G3 Ryou, Kaido states that shit damaged him.
  • G4 Luffy punches Base Kaido in the gut, and no major reaction is given, he even laughs it off, unlikely if it was really 4x stronger.
Chapter 1002:
  • G4 Luffy punches Kaido with Rifle, and Rhino. No major reaction.
  • Kong Gatling makes D. Kaido go "Gaah!"
Chapter 1003:
  • Luffy is beating the shit out of Kaido with Ryou, and Kidd comments it might do full damage.
An amp, but clearly not a 4x one.
Clearly his physical factor matters. Adding to that is the fact that G4 itself has been hyped up by Luffy FOR ITS HAKI, even saying Boundman wouldn't lose to Katakuri's block Mochi when it's down to armament during their fight.
I already conceded that it does make his Haki stronger, but not necessarily by 4x.

It's physical force + ryou = 62 Teratons
Ryou contributes to the majority of this value.

G4 makes it 4x physical force + amped ryou, not necessarily a 4x the actual value.
 
Luffy's Haki wasn't strong enough, yes.
No indication whatsoever that that's the case. When Luffy's haki gets stronger it ALWAYS gets commented on. VS Katakuri he boasted his armament is stronger with G4. When Kaido's haki got stronger Luffy said so. Luffy's usage of Ryou/CoC in round 2 is the exact same as it is now, only his base is fighting better than before.
Or Kaido is weaker?
Or Luffy's Haki grew stronger?
Or any other reason?
Can't be. Kaido himself said he wouldn't weaken himself this fight when drinking.
Again, no indication whatsoever that his haki changed between R2 and R3. Only the fact that he's physically able to fight Kaido now.
G4 only multiplies impact based on spring-based abilities. Physical impact.

It does make his Haki stronger, but the multiplier does not apply to THAT. It's a multiplier that comes from the impact, the Haki amp is unquantifiable
It amplifies ARMAMENT. Luffy himself said so. His regular coating becommes strong enough to where it's consistently tanking attacks on a similiar scale to what G4 dishes out.
Luffy used G4 multiple times in his battle with Kaido, lmao.
He used it in round 1 where he was marginally weaker and couldn't tank a ragnarok. Now he can.
He didn't use it in round 2.
In round 3 he used Snakeman once and it sent Kaido flying back. Admittedly it was done with Yamato's own attack, but still.
That's false? Base Luffy never attacked Dragon Kaido during Round 1.

Yeah, no, I meant Zoan in general, not only Dragon. He got KO'D by Ragnarok in round 1 and made Kaido disappointed than anything.
Regardless of that, that same Luffy throughout both rounds got knocked out by Kaido's Ragnarok, then after unlocky CoC Infusion got knocked out again after not too long.
Luffy CURRENTLY is PHYSICALLY taking the attack that knocked him out cold during round 1, and from the same Hybrid Kaido that knocked him out again in round 2, AFTER he started using CoC infusion.
It's physical force + ryou = 62 Teratons
Ryou contributes to the majority of this value.
The issue is the fact that he is also TANKING attacks from a character of equal value. If not greater, as Luffy said Kaido's Haki became stronger when he took the Lightning Hammered Ragnarok. You don't use CoC Infusion for defense passively, at least it wasn't shown. Luffy had to hold his hand out to use the barrier and block Kaido's swings on that same chapter. And Ryuou is dura neg- that shouldn't add any kind of value since it doesn't bypass defenses directly like AP.

If Ryuou doesn't add to the value, and CoC infusion has been proven to hit harder when Luffy uses greater techniques (Roc gun sends Kaido flying when he's fully on guard, whereas the regular physical attacks of base Luffy damage him but don't force him on his back), then the only thing left is the fact that Luffy can tank attacks equal to his own value without usage of Ryuou barriers or armament.
There's always the argument of "he's rubber and can take more than what he can dish out", but at the same time Kaido was using CoC infusion in his own attack as well.
Still, arguing this now might be too early- I say it's best we wait and see if Luffy goes G4 and if Kaido can still keep up in base. If that's the case, then G4 isn't a higher value. If Kaido is shown needing to transform or use awakening, then G4 is definitely a physical amp to the usual value. There's a reason why I wanted to bring this up AFTER Luffy vs Kaido is done and not now >>

When Kaido's haki got stronger Luffy said so. Luffy's usage of Ryou/CoC in round 2 is the exact same as it is now, only his base is fighting better than before.
It's possible.
Can't be. Kaido himself said he wouldn't weaken himself this fight when drinking.
He wouldn't weaken himself from Drinking.
He is brutally damaged at this point.
Again, no indication whatsoever that his haki changed between R2 and R3. Only the fact that he's physically able to fight Kaido now.
He isn't. He is using Haki with every attack.
It amplifies ARMAMENT. Luffy himself said so.
The rest of your points don't really address the multiplier, so let's go.

Yes, it amplifies armament. It is in no shape way or form related to the 4 times impact multiplier, therefore it doesn't matter.

Would you say Luffy's current base+CoC Infusion is stronger than Kaido, then? If they're equal, and Luffy is tanking an empowered attack from Kaido right to the face, then is that not him taking equal (if not greater due to the attack being stronger) value to his own? G4 is still an overall PHYSICAL amp. It tanks harder hits, and attacks that aren't spring-loaded can shatter a cracker soldier when even G3 couldn't. It proves that G4's regular attacks are still>G3>Base=Hybrid Kaido's stronger empowered attacks
It's less about fully offense and about just physical capability. If he can tank an attack that matches his attacks' value, then his body has to be equal to that value even without the addition of Haki. Ryuou's whole point was dura neg, and CoC Infusion's point is leaving perma-damage on Kaido.

The thing is, Haki blooming mid-battle is a canonical concept that's been explored in the series for a while now, especially during these past couple of arcs. So I'd say Luffy's Haki being the thing that's getting powered up throughout the course of this fight is the most likely interpretation.

Keep your text 20 words or less, geez.

Base = Hybrid Kaido is incorrect. Kaido is clearly stronger, Luffy lost twice already.
Base Luffy is probably slightly below Hybrid Kaido, and his G4 more than makes up for it. My only problem would be multiplying 62 TTs by 4.

I hate the random emoji in the post you quoted- WHY

So, it's more or less the fact that it's weird than anything. That I can agree with- I just like playing the devil's advocate

Base Luffy < Hybrid Kaido
Gear3 = Hybrid Kaido
Gear4 > Hybrid Kaido
makes more and Alot of Sense to me.
 
Eh, are we sure it's Gear 3 and not Gear 4 that's equal to Hybrid Kaido?

And just curious, how strong is Snakeman compared to both normal Gear 4 and compared to Gear 3rd?
