The "Luffy will OHKO Jimbei upon arival" thread

Cinnabon

So who’s with me that in this upcoming short and sweet (hopefully) arc Luffy will -much in the same spirit as the Jaya or Wisky Peak mini arcs- drop Jimbei like it's hot within a few powerful blows.

Lets face it, Luffy is in with the big boys now, and he needs a few chapters to really put his new martial power in perspective (not like Oda hasn't done so in the past)

Cue hundreds of merman running and screaming "OMG it's 300m Straw Hat Luffy and his crew of cutthroats! They will kill us all!"

I think yes.

Heres a visual for you, just replace guy on bottom with Whale Shark Merman:

Aldrich

Not this shit again.

Buuhan1

Sorry man, but Jimbei isn't gonna be no weakling.

Zephos

Lets face it, thats apsurd.
Facts:
Bounty =/= Power Level.
Merman =/= Enemies (Kocoro,Tom)
Jaya =/= about conflict.

Conjectures being treated like Fact:
Bounty =/= Power Level.
Jimbei =/= At Merman island.
Jimbei =/= Enemy.
Merman Island arc =/= about Conflict.

This is some incredibly narrow thinking being aimed at the next arc.

The_green_samurai_ranger

I doubt that the one hit knock out will happen.

Arlong was a crew member, second in command if I remember correctly, of Jimbei, so saying that a one hit knock out is going to happen would be like saying One Piece is made out of cheese.

Arlong was super strong and it was a hard battle for Luffy to fight, Jimbei is going to be like Arlong times ten.

DarkShinobi

I'd be kind of dissapointed if Jinbei, the Armed Sea that's been hyped up since early on in the series suffered the same fate as a flunky like Bellamy.

Face it, Fishman Island most likely will be a mega-arc, hopefully not as long as the CP9 one was though. If it's at least the length of Alabasta or doesn't go past chapter 500, I'll be content.

This Dark Triangle thing may last 15 chapters at the most.

sabret00the

this thread takes ludicrousness to whole new levels.

LUCCI DA PIGEON PIMP

Once again jimbei won't be koed by mr 300 000 000 berry rubberman , for all we know jimbei's bounty could be twice his bounty and jimbei himself could be totally stronger than him .
For the last time there is no bellamy among the warlords and stop thinking that after the cp9 nobody except the emperors would be able to beat luffy , the OP world is full of monsters who are stronger than lucci .

Buuhan1

….how is CP9 longer than Alabasta? Unless you're counting the entire Water 7 arc, in which you shouldn't.

what are you ranting on about?

First we don't even know if Jinbei is even down their in Merman Island, second in no way is Luffy puting a "Shichibukai" to sleep with one blow.

Luffy's bounty is high yes but that bounty really is NOT reflecting his strength, it's really showing what he has done (escape buster call, burn the Government's flag). Luffy's bounty maybe higher than one of the Shichibukai shown but you have to remember that the Shichibukai's bounty stops as soon as they are a member. I still believe that all of the Shichibukai are way stronger than Luffy and his crew.

goty

The day Luffy starts to OHKO Shichibukais (aka the men who helps to keep the balance), he's an emperor. Give One Piece to teh man.

ChopChopCannon

@The_green_samurai_ranger:

You are of course not taking into account Oda's unpredictability.

DarkShinobi

I'm not the Straw Hats WILL encounter Jinbei at Fishman Island. But the first and only time he was mentioned, he was associated with Fishman Island, so there's a pretty good chance we'll see him there. It's not set in stone, but there's a pretty good chance.

….how is CP9 longer than Alabasta? Unless you're counting the entire Water 7 arc, in which you shouldn't.

Why shouldn't I? Just because they went to a different place midway through the arc, doesn't mean it isn't the same one. Changing location doesn't mean a thing, as long as the arc's story stays the same and follows through in the end. Thing is us One Piece fans are so used to all the arcs taking place on one island that some of us get thrown off with the Water 7/Enies Lobby thing.

I just refer to them as the CP9 arc, easiest and simplest way to describe it.

Silence

He made a thread on this? Motherfucking ludicrous.

Luffy didn't OHKO Lucci, so why on earth would he OHKO the strongest fishman there is? A shichibukai?

Man, sometimes I just don't understand these forums.

Then again, let's be reasonable about this.

It might take a few chapters for the Straw Hats to get to the Fishman Island, in which time Luffy might become a lot stronger.

So he might OHKO Jimbei with Gear 3.

Hold on… what does OHKO stand for? Something something Knock Out?

Are you sick, haveing a high bounty means nothing. dont compare a CP9 guy to a Schicbukai. (speculation) for all we know Jinbei could fight luffy and jinbei could let him go, or luffy runs/escaped like the lucky punk he is.

OHKO ZEhahahahaah ZEZEZEZEZEZEZEZ LOL

sabret00the

Luffy's gonna OHKO WB, i mean WB ain't that strong, he couldn't even OHKO Shanks.

onemoment

Now, I doubt a shichibukai will be OHKO'd unless they have some sort of "
super I've never been hit before technique," which is unlikely since Jimbei is a fishman, and therefore should have super strength.

However, I have been wondering something, will Jimbei's bounty be higher or lower then Donflamingo? Cause if it's higher, then I guess Don's not going to be a Luffy opponent like some people speculated. I doubt that Luffy can beat another shichibukai and not get less then 40k to his bounty.

However, it is possible that at least Luffy will have an easier time with Jimbei then he did with Crocodile. I remember it being said that Jimbei was "as strong as Arlong," which wouldn't bode well for Jimbei in a fight against Luffy. Of courcse, Jimbei could have some unique technique too.

FireFistAce 0

He's the strongest man in the world, not Jesus. Whitebeard can't OHKO Shanks, and Luffy can't OHKO Jimbei. Arlong was damn strong (though some people refuse to admit it). What other villian had an entire building collapse on top of him before going down? And no, Croc doesn't count because Croc went THROUGH bedrock, and didn't have it all pile on top of him. But hell, Croc was strong in his own right.

Arlong took a LOT of punishment. It's just that the fight was not to his advantage because Luffy was made of Rubber and arlong used biting and cutting attacks, which, while actually work, aren't as effective as actual piercing attacks. If Luffy hadn't escaped into the building, Arlong could've done some serious damage with his sword.

Jimbei is probably way more than Arlong, which is actually pretty scary.

Aldrich

Actually the canon information we have implies Jinbei and Arlong are of comparable strenght. Which puts things in perspective, how Eastblue opponents were supposedly weaklings while they included one of Gol D Roger's crewmembers and a nearly Shichibukai level combattant.

FireFistAce 0

Well, Arlong was Jimbei's equal 8 years ago. And the key word is "Was". 8 years is a long time to train. I doubt Arlong did any training. On top of that, Arlong was at a disadvantage. Jimbei's kingdom is underseas. That means he'll practically own, especially if he ate the Mizu Mizu no Mi. Gyojin Water Pressure Abilities + Water Pressure DF powers = Win.

As for Buggy, his fight was interrupted, and it could've gone a lot longer if not for Nami's interference. Plus, Buggy wasn't even hurt. He was actually pretty confident. He complimented Luffy for his ability.

Now, since when have the villians in One Piece even been seen training? Well, when have we seen this? Never.

I think you're more on to something with the "underwater thing." That will most likely be Jimbei's edge if he's really "as strong as Arlong." Plus, that statement might not mean much if he has a fighting style not doesn't rely on strength. Like Croc, he wasn't "as strong" as Arlong ,yet he was a far deadly opponent.

Yes, but don't forget Jimbei could've gotten a lot stronger since then.

Cause it's merman island! It'd be kind of …cheal for him not to be there. Unless it fits into some sort of plot.

FireFistAce 0

Whale Sharks, by nature, are filter feeders, meaning they require the presence of other Aquatic life. Plus, other than true whales, they're the largest sea mammal in existence, lending to the credence that they're revered as Emperors.

Being probably the strongest Gyojin in the world, Jimbei is probably a hero among them. All the fishmen we've seen, save Tom, value strength. Therefore, we can assume he's like their patron, and therefore would be welcomed there.

The average size for a Whale Shark is 17 meters. They've been known to be as large as 23 meters. That's friggin huge.

Aldrich

He is the fishmen leader. What's a better place for the fishmen leader to reside than fishmen island (duh)?

The guy has a job to do, tracking down pirates and whatnot. Maybe he visits now and than, but i doubt he just sits around home all day.

onemoment

Well, Croc stuck to Alabasta, while Donflamingo seems to stay on his island for much of hte time. I think Jimbei staying in one spot is none to impractical.

As far as we know, only Doflamingo goes around 'liberating islands'.

FireFistAce 0

You know, that makes me wonder about that statement.

When I think of him "liberating Islands", I'm thinking of colonies in the New World that aren't part of the WG. Since it's the "New World", it's probably a few scattered colonies across the islands of the Grand Line's 2nd half. By "liberating", it could mean snatching from the Emperor's rule. Perhaps the other two aren't like Shanks and Whitebeard, and are more aggressive.

CP9_agent

Am I the only one who actually thinks Jimbei won't be evil? Part of me even thinks he won't be the main villian for the fight. Why does Luffy have to fight all the Shibukai (sp i know). That would be predictable and kinda un Oda like. I could see Jimbei being an ally to the Straw Hats and perhaps there is another threat to the kingdom.

King Smack

I think Jimbei will be an innocent porn director.

He'll be like leave me allllllone

Yeah, I see your point. Crocodile probably would have been on good terms with Luffy had Luffy not tried to overthrow his plan for World Domination. I think Luffy will generally try to pick fights with every Shichibukai, because since they're so goddamn evil, they'll probably hurt one of his nakama. Or maybe they're just one more obstacle on the way to becoming the Pirate King.

If Jimbei ate a devil fruit all his advantage in the sea would be turned to handicap …

FireFistAce 0

The sea itself would be, but not if he used it as a weapon. Arlong did against Sanji and Zoro and it practically blew a hole in their chest. Water pressure is a damn powerful force to be reckoned with.

cp9shanks

Maybe Jinbei is just as physically strong as Arlong however maybe his might comes from the huge army of fishmen he controls. That's what I think it is.

CP9_agent

But thats not what I'm saying. Who says all of the Shibukai are evil? What kind of lame plot point is that. Look at Mihawk, he doesn't seem evil. Kuma didn't seem that bad either. I think the whole point of the Shibukai is that they are supposed to be pirates under government control because they were so powerful. Who says they all have to be evil.

Yeah, it is possible that we won't have all shichibukai as villians, but who says that Jimbei will be the exception either?

WHITEBEARD

Why are you people comparing arlong to shichibukai pirate Jinbei, if you really think about it kinda makes ya sounds dum.
arlong is no where near jinbei. arlong gets his rep from hangin around jnbei.

FireFistAce 0

Because Arlong is the strongest physical fighter before CP9 Luffy has fought in the entire series? Every other fighter we saw relied on their devil fruit (Crocodile, Enel) or Gadgets/gimmicks (CP9, Krieg).

Besides, read this:

Yosaku: CAN'T YOU CONCENTRATE FOR THIRTY SECONDS?!
Well, why don't I skip over all the complicated battle history.
The place we're heading right now is "ARLONG PARK"!!!
An area ruled by a fishman who is nearly as strong as Jinbeh, one of the Shichibukai,
known as "ARLONG"!!!
His personal strength surpasses that of Don Krieg!!!

Ajiro

Don't forget all the attacks arlong had too, Shark on darts and gears, twist gum , who knows what jinbei will have.

ONEinchPUNCH

Maybe jinbei hasn't shown his true potential so people have seen arlong and think their equal. I find it hard to believe a shichibukai to be that weak, not that arlong is weak but think about it. Luffy couldn't break tekkai earlier and now he can so that means he'd ko arlong much easier.

I really can't believe a shichibukai being weak because they are one the the 3 great powers

you cant compar arlong to jinbeh or jinbei (however its spelled) to arlong cuz this new luffy will own arlong with his gears. the luffy back then is weaker then the luffy now. and you cant go off what yosaku said cuz if he was as neary as strong as jinbei then why say hes stronger then don.

odlam

Luffy is officially overestimated with his bounty being so much higher than Zoro and Sanji's, or perhaps the Shichibukai are simply being underestimated. Or maybe a combination of both.

Regardless, the Shichibaki are established powerhouses. They wouldn't be a world power with only seven members if they were so weak.
