The octopus reacted just fine to Luffy gear second attack. I see nothing special in Dofla being able to keep up.
he said it was by luck i recall

Nope. He blocked and even poisoned Luffy. Luffy even commented on him being strong for doing so.

yeah after a while the octopus said that he was surprised that he blocked it , it was by luck or something like that
i'm not sure if that was legit tho i wasn't reading the manga then
Luffy clearly did not see him as a truly serious threat then or he would have used COA in the attack which again ties in to what Jabra was saying earlier. We don't know how may clones Doffy can make only Oda knows that, so I will politely decline your offer for me to go back and read 745 again.
I think you are taking this discussion thread a little bit too seriously, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and you are responding to posts like you are some kind of absolute authority on the matter, which you most definitely are not.
I not taking my self as a authority but i try to back up what i saying from the manga which why is why i use it .
Also it really simple why Oda did not have luffy used COA during that fight was because it was not the main fight\ right time .
This is something he does all the time .
You are the one underestimating Luffy's strength here. G3 is more than just a giant arm or leg. Fuck, G3 took a punch from Sengoku. Mingo cannot cut G3 arm or leg with one of those invincible strings. He will need to use Overheat which also requires a prep time.
A punch is not luffy weakness cuts are and Don cut a meator and kick top off a whole buliding with easy.
I mean luffy took a punch that split a island but then get cut by some teeth .
That was exactly Jabras and then my point, Jabra thinks its because Oda is saving Luffy's big attacks for the 1 vs 1.
Quick correction, I don't only think that Oda is saving his big attacks for later, I believe that he deliberately tried to achieve the following:
And he could only achieve that by letting Luffy use very, very basic attacks - which honestly doesn't make sense considering how casually he used CoA pretty much everywhere else since the TS. Even for simple tasks like breaking the shields of some Fishman Island fodder soldiers.
His clashes with Dofla looked really clumsy, but they do tell me that Oda has a proper 1 vs. 1 in mind for later. Else he wouldn't need to leash Luffy like that.

Fairly certain he never said that.

Why did he leash Doffy too? Parasite from start and enjoy the puppet straw hat show.

He didn't kick the top of the building, he cut the top half of the building. I'm pretty sure Zoro can do that. Anyways, we all buy into the hype we want.
When Luffy will be using G3, Mingo won't be able to move or have the reaction time to do anything.

Yes I know, that was the gist of the discussion at the time when I replied to Jabras post, you then jumped all over me for it.
I suspect you are one of those individuals who insists on having the last word on every subject, so feel free to do so I wont respond to you again.
Quick correction, I don't only think that Oda is saving his big attacks for later, I believe that he deliberately tried to achieve the following:
- Show that Doflamingo is strong
- Give Luffy his typical "first loss" against the arc's big bad
- While allowing Luffy to save face (this is new!)
And he could only achieve that by letting Luffy use very, very basic attacks - which honestly doesn't make sense considering how casually he used CoA pretty much everywhere else since the TS. Even for simple tasks like breaking the shields of some Fishman Island fodder soldiers.

I don't think he was it Vs CC in the first fight but of course he went on to lose that one .
So like you said this time Oda did not want him to lose but just quick exchnage of blows and save main fight for later .

I know what you meant Jabra, Luffy was not being serious and the big 1 vs 1 is coming. :) My comment was more for Andy who had jumped all over me.

I think he kick it off unless i interpreting the panels wrong or he used his power with his feet .

Ah, yeah. But you know how it is, people don't read the the whole thread and reply to posts regardless of the context (which just happens, I'm not any better^^)
Why did he leash Doffy too? Parasite from start and enjoy the puppet straw hat show.
I could be misinterpreting things, but Parasite doesn't seem to work on the big guys of Dressrosa. Bastille at least was unaffected, despite being one of the first victims of Parasite:
!
It shouldn't be long till Oda shows us how haki nullifies a hax ability. He already said it through Smoker, but I'm sure this will become a thing soon (maybe even against Doflamingo).
Eh? I'm pretty sure Bastille is shaking because his stands near the King's Plateau. Are doing some Vagabond Joke ?
Edit:
Ah never mind, the previous page uses the same effect for Parisite. Though it has a different Sfx

I doubt Bastille has a metal Paramecia, so nope!
But then someone please tell me why Doflamingo controlled tons of fodder marines but then ignored Bastille. There needs to be a limit to Parasite after all.

From what I have seen of this arc so far Oda is setting up something really big for the finale, it will be interesting to see how Luffy deals with Doffy's fruit abilities, perhaps Luffy's COA will be strong enough to protect against it in some way (preferable) or maybe Law's fruit abilities will be needed. I am expecting a real Haki slog fight where Luffy will have to use all the different types to defeat Doffy. We should then see just how strong he has become during the timeskip.

Sure. But as a non-official member of the Barto Club, I have my own logic. If Sanji stands within this limit, then there is no limit

Don't worry about it, lets just pretend it never happened. :)

Sanji and Jozu weren't caught by Doflamingo's no-brainer haxmove Parasite, no? I admit I should read the chapter again, but I always assumed that Doflamingo simply trapped them with strings. That's why there was no control involved, Sanji and Jozu were just not able to move.

Well Luffy wasn't all that serious when he attacked the octopus, to me it looked really casual and simple
I was just checking on some of the wiki sites and they say that so far only Rayleigh and Luffy have been shown to use all three versions of haki. I was not aware of that and if true it will definitely help Luffy in his fight with Doffy who can only use two of the three COC/COA as far as we know. If Doffy does indeed lack COO that will definitely be a weakness in their up coming fight, or perhaps in the end it will simply boil to who has the greatest ambition.
Makes me wonder if Oda intended for Luffy and Rayleigh to have all three versions but no one else.

Yeah I guess it's most likely a different move. In this case, there might be a limit that we will find out later.
Sarquiss was a relative fodder, but I think he also used parasite on a vice-admiral (first chapter with Doffy). Ma! It was like 8 years ago so I wouldn't mind if Oda changed the extent of Doffy's ability to save Bastille for Sabo.
@Galaxy:
Well.. the Flower Field seems to be completely void of any other people except for Luffy, Law, Rebecca, Diamante, and Kyros (feel it'd be a bit silly if Law pulled a leg from a random mook in the hallway behind them, or the areas ahead), but I don't know… it's really all up to how Oda wants the fight to happen. Kyros without his leg is an interesting handicap that "could" result in him needing Rebecca's help sometime during the fight (I'm being very hopeful here.. but it'd be awesome if it happened.)
Rebecca giving her leg to Kyros would be first usefull thing she does :) (and key i guess…) But the sight of Kyros with one girly leg would be ... hard to forget.
Bartolomeo eating sausage vs. Sugar would be a good match up. Make it happen Oda!
rebecca giving her leg to kyros would be first usefull thing she does :) (and key i guess…) but the sight of kyros with one girly leg would be ... Hard to forget.
so why did you share it ?!!!!:blink: you monster!
so why did you share it ?!!!!:blink:
That just reminded me of this one picture I saw of a really butch guy with a womanly leg, just can't remember what to search to find it again rofl.
I doubt it will be harder than Croc or Lucci.
I beg to differ DD on a completely different level to those two. Luffy going to have to dig deep to win this one, he'll win of course but it will be difficult.
I think he kick it off unless i interpreting the panels wrong or he used his power with his feet .

It was a cutting attack, he used his power with his feet. The top half of the palace was cleanly cut.

Sorry, I read this forum very slowly from time to time. I was on page 35, I read something interesting and I had something to add… (i think) so i posted :)

I tried googling "man with girl legs" but those results… check for yourself if you dare. And Im not taking about guy with no legs or hands.

Back in the fight with Law, DD dodged his "Mes"( almost, law managed to make him bleed a bit). That could be CoO, DD managed to see law's attack and avoid it in time.
Rebecca giving her leg to Kyros would be first usefull thing she does :)
I'm not a Rebecca hater, but that was funny. Can someone shop this? Ramistar? Anyone?

Yeah, but to be fair it was a no-name Vice Admiral that got the title and his name in a… Databook. He isn't just a Vice Admiral, he is a Vice Admiral on crack. At least when it comes to fodderness.

He used COO against Smoker.

Could be or perhaps Doffy just knows all of Laws moves, we shall have to wait and see.

I think it's more of a question if Oda going to tell us if they using COO in a fight .
Unless he has someone saying something or he draw before and after panels there is no way to tell compare to the next two .
He used COO against Smoker.
I don't remember that but I shall take your word for it, it was on the one piece wikia which I thought was petty up to date.

Yeah very hard to tell with COO really, we will definitely see for sure when he fights Luffy.
He used COO against Smoker.
If you mean this panel I think it was CoO aswell. But let's be honest, there is basically no proof that it's not a casual dodging.
I think he used CoO because he dodged the attack before noticing Smoker.
Sanji and Jozu weren't caught by Doflamingo's no-brainer haxmove Parasite, no? I admit I should read the chapter again, but I always assumed that Doflamingo simply trapped them with strings. That's why there was no control involved, Sanji and Jozu were just not able to move.
Doflamingo still had some control over Sanji's body since he puts him in a crucified position. Maybe Parasite takes too much effort and concentration for strong people, or maybe its strength is inversely proportional to the number of people it's affecting.
Makes me wonder if Oda intended for Luffy and Rayleigh to have all three versions but no one else.
That's silly. Haki wasn't really codified until post time skip and the only Haki user Luffy has fought since then is Chinjao. Anyone can learn CoO or CoA, and Chinjao implied there will be plenty of CoC users in the New World. CoO is shown the least, but we'll definitely be seeing opponents with all three.
I'm not a Rebecca hater, but that was funny. Can someone shop this? Ramistar? Anyone?
Thanks. Your avatar suits well your post now :D I could shop that but that would be beyond horrible. Maybe someone remembers my old shops ;)
Sorry for reminding you guys xD

Yeah very hard to tell with COO really, we will definitely see for sure when he fights Luffy.
I think this dodge here(last panel) is CoO, it was simple and precise.
To be fair, the other Supernovas weren't even invented until SA.
So, supernovas are last-minute-chatacters but Sabo exists since 1997.
Supernovas's existence make sense to me, after all it's the age of the pirates and not the age of Luffy and friends. I always wondered if there was other pirates out there being as susseful as the straw hats, and then there they are!!.
But Sabo, ugghh. Appears from nowhere, survives a flashback, gets the mera-mera. My senses of fan-service are tingling to hard to keep going.
Sorry, I read this forum very slowly from time to time. I was on page 35, I read something interesting and I had something to add… (i think) so i posted :)

Oooh Doffy you really shouldn't have said "Law aside, Strawhat is just a common pirate". That is going to cost you dearly. :)
sounds like a lot of fun , but seriously isn't that what one piece is really about ?
you feel that conflict in the admirals extremely different personalities and their POVs of what justice means to them
you got the "ends justify means" justice vs "every civilian's safety comes first" justice vs "i dont give a fuck" justice !!
that's actually an everyday real life topic in a lot of societies
Difference lies in focus.
And in fact that in One Piece only one side is viable.
! So did you get past the Rebecca cosplay ?
Yeah I've seen it. But that plastic boobs crushed me :( And lol what's up with that Jinbei :D
Jinbei ?
RamistaR's sig. Thought it's part of a post for a second.
Ahaha, it's definitely new too. I love it.
