Hi, I'm Steve…
@Karmine:
Yes, I did win few times….
Usopp not stronger ? Could Perona take few ton bat straight into the face ?
Lips do have a saying....Just check Robin and Nami and compare to Perona.
Meeting is meeting, can't say it is invalid cause they didn't meet long enough, how long did he meet Robin ? For few sec....
No, you didn't win at all…
Usopp is not stronger than Perona. Endurance, he may be, but to be "defined" stronger, in general, one must be stronger in general than another... Sure, he may be stronger in endurance, but that's not true for the rest of the situation...
For instance, Perona has a "stronger" attack than Usopp, by means of those Ghost Bombs. She would then be stronger in attack than him. Furthermore, she would also be able to do more damage... I'm getting sidetracked, might as well get to the point:
Usopp vs Perona:
- Start, Perona attacked twice with the Negative Hollow, then she failed twice.
- Usopp didn't do much of anything.
- She was "shocked" and it was shown in the whole entire manga because she kept saying "This man… he does what no man does... People should urge to live on!!" and she even cheered for him.
- Oda stated it as a fact, he made her state "I got sidetracked when fighting you" after the chase scene.
- After that, she basically played around with him. Showing off, toying with the guy.
- Usopp looked very pathetic.
- When she started to attack, she was holding the edge with ease. He had no answer and all he could do was take her shockwaves.
- Then, Kumacy came and he was killed by Sogeking.
- This freaked her out. So she made mistakes.
- Usopp found her body and exposed it. He shot at it.
- She freaked and went to return to her body.
- He then tricked her using what he does best, tricks.
- After the minor things like roaches and such, he basically took her attack, the big explosion ghost, and then used it in the impact dial to take out the hippo. She was freaking scared to death by then.
- Then, she basically lost it when he brought out a plastic hammer and gave it to her.
In no way does this fight prove that Usopp is stronger. He didn't even get a physical blow on her, she was smacking him up and down all over the place. He didn't do anything at all. He merely "won" because she passed out from her own nightmares.
If she had been a person that could see through his bluffs, the SH crew would have died. If she was serious from the start, due to the whole set up of how utterly negative he was, she would have blown him up without showing mercy.
However, for the manga's purposes, Oda changed the script so that Perona would assume her enemy is very weak and she could toy with him. Then, he created a bunch of situations where her judgment of Usopp got the best of her.
That's why Usopp, the weaker person, beat Perona.
Same thing goes with these fights:
- Captain Morgan fought against Garp and won, the reason he [the weaker one] beat Garp is because Garp was asleep.
- Buggy the Clown fought Zoro and won, the reason why he [who is weaker] won is because he had an advantage in Devil Fruit ability and used a cheapshot.
- Zoro against Kaku at the GalleyLa company mansion, even though Zoro lost back then, he was stronger in the end as we saw. He won because he was sidetracked towards a different goal.
- Luffy against Ms. Goldenweek, even though he officially lost, he is the stronger person.
- Garp against Luffy, Garp lost, but he gave the fight up.
- Luffy vs Bellamy, he didn't even fight back and just took hits, same with Zoro, but they are both stronger than him.
- Smoker against Luffy, he can't him Smoker, but if he could, he would be stronger.
- Rob Lucci against Luffy, you can do it either way around, it works.
- Crocodile against Luffy, it works either way…
- Nami against Paula, if she didn't run away all the time, Nami'd be dead.
- Nami against Kalifia, Nami would have lost fast.
- Kumadori against Chopper, if it wasn't for Monster point, he'd be dead.
- War events also work…
- The two giants against Mr. 3 also work. Mr. 3 wouldn't stand a chance against them.
- Sanji vs Gin.
- Pell against Robin.
- Luffy against Enel is the same thing, either way.
- The list can go on.
Perona is stronger than Usopp.
Servants as in people who are under her and obey her commands fully.
No, whatever "servants" mean to her, we don't know what meaning that word holds to her. The way she uses it suggests that it is a personal reference towards the word. We'll never know what it means until she defines it. So, you are baseless.
Everything can be fixed, such as Perona becomes male, twice larger, 100X stronger, grow white mustach, become new Whitebeard and Rule the sea as Pirate King. But we are not going to see these sort of big chances… not just say COULD BE FIXED! Oda CAN FIX anything. I could just as say... Doomsday COULD BE AT TOMORROW! same argument!
Haki, if it is said to harm her ghosts, she'd fell the pain from them.
So, there's the fix. All I was talking about was Oda showing that Haki would harm her, then she'd basically be forced to fight using other means. That's in reference to relying on anything except Negative Hollow.
Where does she knock them all way out ?
Bombs… Concussion hits tend to lead people to become unconscious.
Yes she does hide, anyone can easily one shot her, she needs to hide.
We've never seen her fight using mobility, or her real body at all… She was trapped the whole time, minus the fight against Kuma.
We did see her fight against Kuma without relying on this "hiding" trick. So, it's totally pointless to assume this, it was proven wrong by Oda.
Ohh I forgot to changed from "Missing Moria" into Not Missing Moria all off screen and Oda personally called you to tell you about it.
It's not stated that way.
She misses the life she had at TB, not the man. She never said anything about Moria.
Yes, she kinda does need to reject his invite, kinda every member has done it.
Robin didn't reject it, so please try again?
Boss fight is not in the FUTURE! Nami joins BAM BUGGY!, Arlong defeated BAM NAMI! Zoro joins BAM MORGAN, Kuro BAM Usopp… very short between....
It is the future…
You can laugh all you want of yourself for being fake debater who can't think properly or even understand basics in One Piece and misunderstand everything for sake of your fanboy madness.
Sorry, but I don't think too highly of "lips" and stupid nonsense like that…
Here are some for other possible crew mates.
Jinbei
Refuses to join after MF, met again in FI where they defeat a boss and he joins.
Hatchi
Escorts them to FI where he ends in some trouble with old friends and a boss fight which ends with him joining.
Mr.2 Bon
Luffy decided to go back to Impel Down to save Mr.2. Boss fight there is easily made.
Hancock
Bit long shot but if they go to Mariejoa instead of FI then could be fight against her Former Master or anything like that.
Crocodile
Doflamingo could be the boss and then we see Luffy beat yet another Warlord, Two Strawhats have had a Warlord as their boss. However I think it has been too short time between Warlord been defeated.
Ummm… You need to go back and read Robin, she never refused. She asked to join, she was accepted. She then left the crew around Water 7.
@SMUDGE:
You only need to look at the trend set by Oda on how the entire crew has joined to realise that Perona's chances of joining are zilch.
Oda won't change his approach.
What trend?
There aren't any, smart stuff… It was long broken when Brook came.
However, female trends, there are some... Perona is following that one.
