The Start of a Beautiful Friendship between OP and EZ: Luffy vs Shiki

Luffy vs Shiki

Speed Equalized

Both are in-character

Takes place in a random forest

Monkey D. Luffy (Pre-Timeskip):

Shiki Granbell:

 

[The_Calaca]

Shiki's advantages:

• Stronger (both characters scale above baseline but Shiki has a scaling chain above it).

• More agile with Pseudo-Flight and Grav Manipulation.

• Better mindset (I think? I read like 15 chapters so IDK how serious he actually is in fights).

Satori's advantages:

• Precognition via Mantra which was good enough to keep Usopp, Luffy and Sanji at bay at the same time.

• Impact Dial is a perfect counter for Shiki's fighting style. All that Satori need to do is absorb the punch's impact and reflect it, targetting the insides of the body with a shockwave.

Satori is more a stationary fighter unlike Shiki who's a brawler and will try to get close to capitalize his AP advantage in Full Ether Gear. But Satori's Mantra was a pain for characters more skilled and experienced and some unorthodox methods were needed in order to divert his attention and catch Satori off guard.

Plus, Mantra + Impact Dial is bad news for any classic brawler since all that Satori needs to do is put the Dial against the punch, then the force gets absorbed and Satori will just reflect it back at Shiki.

Voting Satori.

Yeah, voting for Satori via Calaca's reasoning

Satori for best bros reasons above

Disgaree with above reasoning, since both can't one shot each other, after gaining the information about satori(basically that she can reflect physical) shiki can start using gravity base attack,like pulling her closer using gravity wave and shot gravity ball, since she is under his gravity it make t hard to evade,also many of shiki attack isn't pure physical based, they are gravity based as well

 

[The_Calaca]

Satori is a man.

The Impact Dials can store kinetic energy from many different sources.

Also, Satori still has Mantra to precog Shiki's moves.

Actually, due to some issues, Satori is probably gonna be reduce to 8-B. So, I'm gonna change the contender to Luffy I suppose, so we can have that classic protagonist vs protagonist showdown. So, people will have to revote. Sorry for the inconvenience.

 

[Thomas_simpsons]

Wait Luffy should destroy if we go by the vsbattle stats. You should have made it Alabasta arc luffy.

 

[The_Calaca]

Since Plum didn't specify which Luffy is, he slaps owo.

Jokes aside, this is of course Arabasta Luffy who can shrug 400 tons off with no damage so considering Shiki is a brawler who relies on blunt force, he never won't do jack to Luffy. This is probably a stomp. Not even the Full Ether Gear will help to prevent Shiki from getting slaped either way.
