@Ajiro:
Quit saying your ifs and buts because the time-skip will never happen.
now that's a happy dude!
i have to say i agree with gaara d lucci about conquering grand line in less than a year,it is idiotic,zeff stayed to GL for a year and he wanted just to find all blue and he didn't,shanks and whitebeard are years in the GL,ths isn't just luffy we are talking about,chopper and robin will have to study and do researches,nami wants to go everywhere in the GL,not just in the nescecery islands cuz she has to make the world map,sanji wants to find all blue
also how do we know the SHs go from island to island in less than a day? it may take a few days
i want luffy to conquer it in 2 years minimum otherwise….:devil:
now i haven't watched naruto so i don't understand why what i thought has to be done in naruto style,it's like everyone imagining luffy would beat easily aokiji if this happened or something like that
and i hear a lot in this thread that the SHs increase way to much in every battle but i know that except zoro it is the first time luffy and sanji did something different
nami got climatact in alabasta and the perfect climatact in the train to EL(and climatact was her first weapon for her first fight so it's like she developed only in EL),
usopp (except with the dials he took) he did something different with making and using kabuto in EL other than that he did the same things over and over again,
robin is the same,chopper showed us his monster form in EL,luffy got gears in EL,sanji got the fire leg thing in EL and franky was new and fought for the first time as a SH in EL
zoro did a new technique in every arc,in alabasta he learned how to cut steel,in skypiah how to cut the air and in EL how to project an image from his spirit,i accept that he is the only one developing all the time not the others
so where is the icrease in every battle? from morgan's town till water 7 sanji and luffy and everyone except of zoro did the same things with a slight difference in usopp's style (cuz of kabuto).now nami fighting in alabast was her first time and that's why she got a weapon,and usopp and nami just got new weapoms both in EL.so where did every straw hat developed in every battle?
and i suggested that everyone doesn't have to train in the time skip (like chopper,robin,nami.franky will be upgrading the ship and himself so basically only sanji zoro and luffy will) but everyone is focusing in the power increase that will be the end of one piece!
we are in chapter 428 with 429 coming,oda have said that OP will last 1000 chapters so i guess everything has to remain the same for the next 8 to 10 years,it doesn't have to change,nah,how did i think that it needed to do a little change for once?
people reply just to be negative,if someone made a thread about the SHs getting upgrades you people would say the same: "no,it isn't needed,8 years there hasn't been one,so why does it have to happen now? aren't you watching too much DB? luffy isn't goku and the SHs sayains, what do you expect them to evolve into? super sayains?"
just be positive,we will propably see a lot of changes,we aren't even in the middle,do you expect that if it goes forever like this it will last? it wll become boring,in life everything evolves and so will one piece and that is what oda understood
