RE: Who's Your Favorite Impostor Straw Hat Member?

RE: Post yer first weekly chapter you started following with
I started right after they meet Kokoro, the very beginning of the Water 7 arc. Early 300's, I think.

Why is OP always the third?
I have not posted in a while, but recently it has been bugging me (especially because of the most recent arc) that One Piece, the greatest manga ever, could possibly be scanlated slower than Bleach or Naruto. They both have their redeeming qualities, but why is it that the OP community is not as fanatical or fervent in the speed scanlations? This is mostly a rant, because I am tired of always waiting for OP after Bleach or Naruto comes out.
Anyways, discuss. -
RE: Luffy & Zoro (Potential Spoilers)
Luffy is stronger, more powerful, merely because such, unless explicitly stated otherwise, must always be the case for the story to advance. Sure, there are some dudes who the others fight that could beat him, but only because they may have been exceptionally well equipped to fight against him, and especially him.

RE: Fun with Paramecias!
I thought of this fruit a long time ago, but it shares some traits with Alvida's fruit. It would be the friction fruit, and if you touched something you could increase or decrease friction. So you could increase friction of your enemies so they would go slower, or make yourself faster, or something along those lines.
The Gun fruit was another one, but again, Mr. 1 alrady has the Blade fruit. The Gun fruit would be exactly like his, except for guns instead of blades. I know neither idea is terribly original, but they would be fun anyways.

RE: And the main villain is… (probable spoilers)
Where did it say that Jinbei was the strongest Shichibukai? I dont recall anything like that.
On subject, i think that BB is the final villian, and that the Revolutionaries vs. Pirates vs. Marines, or however, will come true to some degree. Gawd, i can't wait for that point of the manga, with all the fights and stuff….....Go Oda Go!!!

RE: Chapter 441 "Duel on Barona Island" Discussion
Ì think that BB's power is alot like the sea, with Luffy he would just be unable to willingly stretch, so he would be alot more like a normal person. So he would still be able to take hits and the like, and use Gear 2 and 3. If he cant, then i dont see how he would be able to really do much to fight BB…..........But i spose Oda will do it some other way, if he has to

RE: Blackbeard is stronger then Shanks????
Hey WHITEBEARD, why do you always put the sunglasses smily at the end of your post? just curious.
-
RE: Blackbeard is stronger then Shanks????
It's 7=4 Mihawk himself would probably only lose to whitebeard keeping the balance in check, so it would take Mihawk+another shichibukai to keep whitebeard at bay.
While that is happenening the only shichibukai stronger than shanks is pre-occupied so shanks won't be out of the fight so it may take 2 of the other shichibukai to keep him at bay.
Then you have the other 3 (or 2 since crocs out of the picture) taking care of the other 2 yonkou which Keeps the balance.
I was going to mention that the WG has some incredible kickass ppl, but then i remembered they have the Rebel army on their hands. So yeah, you seem to have the numbers well figured out.
By the by, how many of you think that the Rebels have alot more kickass ppl than we have even started to think of, if only because they seem to be able to rival the WG in many respects.
-
RE: Blackbeard is stronger then Shanks????
I don't think that any of the Shichibukai are stronger than the four emperors, except for possibly Mihawk, because then the balance would be disrupted. if they were stronger, they could just have a team raid with the WG and take out the Yonkou. Besides, you have NO basis to say that Doflamingo is as strong as Shanks. Mihawk, yes, because it has been stated he is the worlds best swordsman, but he could be beat by other means. But not Doflamingo. This whole thread is almost completely speculation, but that is going a bit too far. That's almost making it up completely, from the ground up, considering our current knowledge. So please try to stay away from any more groundless statements.
-
RE: Blackbeard is stronger then Shanks????
Zoro would beat sanji there is no doubt about that. Luffy and zoro are on a different level. Sanji is below not by alot but he is below enough to be beaten.
I dunno if I'd put Zoro with Luffy, i think of it more with the douriki rankings. Luffy is on a whole different level than Zoro, and Zoro is a bit stronger than Sanji, and the reason he can win so finally is that Sanji has no real working way to fight him.
Anyways, back to the topic.
Where did you get that Shanks got his scar after Gol D Roger died? -
RE: Blackbeard is stronger then Shanks????
Nope they are nearly equal… sorry for this
That's fine, i dont really care, but i still think Zoro would win
-
RE: Blackbeard is stronger then Shanks????
Stephens script's are very good but not always that correct…
But for me... You just want that WB is the strongest... (looking at the name)
Oy, dont get too zealous with that reasoning…...who do you think would win in a Sanji vs. Zoro? Zoro, right? i do too, frankly, but still, one look at your name, and you are labeled as a Zoro fan.......well, you get the picture.
@ WHITEBEARD
well, when it comes down to it, the highlight of their crew is them. So if they arent that strong, why would their crews get them a Yonkou ranking?
I betcha none of them have a crew bigger than Don Krieg, or at least much bigger, so by that reasoning he should be pretty strong.
That analogy isnt the best, but it works. And he and his fleet were decimated by only Mihawk, and he doesnt have a crew. Sooooo, i think that their crews may contribute a little bit, but not really that much. -
RE: Blackbeard is stronger then Shanks????
That's not reckless because of the personal implications, but cuz their crews would hafta start fighting big time, and that isnt wanted by anyone. the four emperors are on WB's level, i remember they were introduced as such. I don't think BB is quite Yonkou level yet, so if he challenged Shanks or WB at this point, I'm pretty sure it would be a fight that would be long, but with BB losing. he still doesn't have reflexive Logia powers yet, as we saw this last chapter, so that would be a weakness. And i think that WB and Shanks are on a level that they have some way of dealing with Logia's, so BB would actually have to be very strong and not rely on his DF to even get near them or dodge.

RE: Mihawk on Whitebeard crew???
@Hyper:
But polygon, theres a air and space museum!
Please get the refrence…
Sorry….doesnt seem as if anybody got your joke, or whatever it was.:unsure:
-
RE: Mihawk on Whitebeard crew???
Actually, the Shichibukai aren't pirates, they are privateers. here, look at this.
Privateer:
- A ship privately owned and crewed but authorized by a government during wartime to attack and capture enemy vessels.
- The commander or one of the crew of such a ship.
Pirate:
-
- One who robs at sea or plunders the land from the sea without commission from a sovereign nation.
- A ship used for this purpose.
- One who preys on others; a plunderer
So really, the Shichibukai are just privateers, and since the WG's main enemy are just pirates, they fit the definition of privateer alot better than pirate. Just an interesting fact.
Anyways, back to the subject. I think that Mihawk was not on WB's crew, for some of the reasons stated above, but more just b/c Mihawk strikes me as someone who would be more of a loner. I hesitate to lean too much on the facts presented by either side, because, really, when you come down to it, it's all speculation. No two ways about it. Very, very convincing speculation, but speculation nevertheless. -
RE: Zoro's third Sword and new member
i like the idea of a carpenter from a lengedary school of carpenters giving him their last "super" sword
or the first sword in kuina's most "super" list
Carpenter???:blink: or didja just mean blacksmith?

RE: One Piece Video/Sound Clip Requests
Can i have the clip in the alabasta arc where Luffy is doing the imitation of Sanji? I think its Eps. 109 or somewhere like that, and also the clip where he does that and a Zoro imitation in the Skypiea arc. Thanks alot.
-
RE: Dragon's ability
To you who are using the lightning bolt on Buggy argument, i think that you arent considering the fact that it might be destiny, or something along those lines. And AD-HD Pirate, i think i agree with you, it would be very cool to have dragon be DF-less
-
RE: More Dials next arc?
very true, but i think that we could see them with a bit more frequency than we have, especially for Usopp, since he could use them for some uber upgrades, even more uber than his current ones. You know, the Kabuto and whatnot.
-
RE: The true blue way of beating a Logia-type - the Breath of all things
actually, at one point i believe Enel said that a logia had to train really hard to get the dissolving thing down to a reflex. However, once it is instituted it is very hard to get them so that you can hit them. however, as we saw with Enel and the seastone, they are not always on like with the paramecias like luffy's. I think that ever since the Smoker and Ace thing, how Luffy got them, its pretty clear its not an unconditional on thing. In BB's case, i think he hasnt trained enough to get his dissolving down to a reflex yet, which would only makes sense.
-
RE: More Dials next arc?
Actually, they wouldn't, if they had diving suits on. This was proven in the Skypiea arc, when Luffy goes underwater in a barrel suit that covers him completely. He doesnt sink any faster than Zoro or Sanji, but he isnt touching any water at all. so, if the df users had a full body suit they would be fine.
-
More Dials next arc?
I was thinking about it, and Usopp hasn't used any dials since Luffy's and his fight, unless the fire attack on the WG flag was a flame dial, so he seems due for some upgrades with them, or something. One thing i was thinking was that Franky and Usopp might get together to upgrade Franky with the dials at some point, kinda like with Nami's ClimaTact. I'd like to see Franky's reaction to the dials, even though he seems to do fine with just cola.
And, since i see no-one mentioning this, maybe they could use diving suits with breath dials installed, or something along those lines in the upcoming underwater arc. It would definitley give them alot of flexibility since they wouldnt need hoses or anything. -
RE: Enel's Attack: RAIGOU
but Croc would just die without a struggle against WB. There wouldnt be time enough. so against Enel, who is very fast (and very dumb) there would be struggle, if Enel could know that WB could cut him. but WB, even in OP physics (1) wouldnt survive the attack, (2) he wouldnt see any reason to take it, even if he could.
-
RE: Enel's Attack: RAIGOU
No, because the hook will merely make the electricity be atracted to it, and in turn him, since he is attached to the hook. and if he is not dissipated all over the landscape, he will be full of electricity, and in the process of grounding it the electricity would heat up his body to a ridiculous temperature, thus fusing him into statue
-
RE: Enel's Attack: RAIGOU
didnt croc sand strom attack suck men/bandits dry, and didnt he attack that water guy from a long distance.
Yeah, but that wouldnt do anything to Enel, so i was just wondering why you brought it up
-
RE: Enel's Attack: RAIGOU
but the friction in the surfaces makes the object heat up, so really, its like as if Croc was thrown into lava. There is a point at which everything will melt and fuse with other things. In this case, if Corc got hit he would dissipate it, sure, but the problem is that in dissipating the lightning he would get so heated up by the friction caused that he would melt and become a mass of glass. So really the only way for him to survive is to always to be dispersed, until Enel decided to do a Raigou, then he would die.
-
RE: Enel's Attack: RAIGOU
and about the ground thing the same can be said about Croc when he drinks water. does his body hold together.
lets not forget about crocs sand storms….....
What? Why sandstorms?
-
RE: Enel's Attack: RAIGOU
Well, it is very true that the even with the trident, Enel couldn't get Luffy, but that is because he never had used one before. I mean, I think he just made it up on the spot, and i dont think he had ever practiced with a trident or weapon, cuz he had never encountered anything that was any threat to him, so his lightning skills were more than enough for any other situation.
This is why Luffy beat him. Luffy in himself was Enel's weakness, but Enel took advantage of Luffy's weakness on the verge of the moment, without any prior experience or thought of it. I mean, its like an assasin wiht a sniper rifle, and a person who never has held a gun before. They both are equally deadly, but one is taken full advantage of, while the other is almost a joke, in comparison. And not because of their intrinsic properties, but the person behind them. And regarding Croc, i think he might ground the lightning if he did it right and scattered. But if he took it head on, he would be turned to glass. And comparing the fights is a little quirky, cuz Croc had the power of arid, so he could absorb his weakness, while as Enel had no means of doing the same. -
RE: Enel's Attack: RAIGOU
Yeah, i dont think that he would be able to keep going, but its an interesting idea, notwithstanding.
-
RE: Enel's Attack: RAIGOU
In terms of raw power, i would say it is the most powerful so far, except for possibly WB and Shanks' attack. Oh, and by the way, if Croc could still control the sand if it was in glass form, glass has as good of insulating properties as rubber, so if he could keep going in glass form, he would own Enel. I personally think Croc would just be glass statue, and that would be the end, but there is a chance for him if he was able to control glass. So there are my two bits.

RE: The Hatchets that Would Not Be Buried: USOPP TALK. (Spoiler Warning)
I think that Oda only made Usopp apologize after his other pretentious stuff, because if he apologized first thing in a relatively collected manner, he would be too close to his dream. This way it shows that he is developing, but still has a ways to go. If he had apologized bravely and the way he should have, he would be truly a brave warrior of the sea, and his previous role of bragger would have had to quit completely to be in keeping with it. This way, Oda can still use him as comic relief without knocking sown the respect built up for Usopp.
I am, by the way, taking it for granted that he will revert to the bragger he once was, but not as bad. No more pretending to be captain, at least. Anyways, there is my two bits. Yes, Usopp was lacking, but for a good reason, as i see it. -
RE: But Zoro…
I noticed that too, but i didnt see the gaurd, so much as the wrapping of the hilt. Its definitely not Funk Fried, though. The hilt might also just be Yubashiri wrapped up, cuz it looks kinda like cloth or something that is wrapped around the grip. i dunno though. Ther isnt enough of a good view to say anything conclusive.
-
RE: Usopp is a mugiwara! Forever!!
@Fire Fist:
Franky is fresh and he's funny. I dunno if I can tolerate the "Supaaaaa!" Pose every few minutes, but other than that, he's a fighter that's a cyborg and can upgrade infinitely, he's a grown man who's still eccentric, he's powered by cola (which can be upgraded; can you imagine hyper-carbonation?).
Plus, it'll be great to see the "Mentos and Cola" gag happen with Franky at some point.
One of the ideas I've wondered about is when Usopp joins again maybe he and Franky will get together and put dials on him….....that would totally kick ass.

RE: "Eating" a Devil Fruit
Well, the first person to ingest it is the future user. not digest, ingest. If you don't know what that means, ingest is to take into your body. Digest is to process. So the act of drinking/biting would be it, and the bite would have to take a section of DF completely off the main part.
Anyways, about two ppl taking bites at the same time, I think that if you had two ppl take bites at the try that the devil would just go to milliseconds or billiseconds of time, in which case it would be impossible to take two bites at the exact same time. -

I'm acshully a bit surprised this name was not taken already, but hey, im not complaining. I've read the rules and everything, and i can't wait to get into it. even tho I must say i'm a bit lost. I found One Piece Manga v.2 before i found this, been a member there a year. How many of you go there? they have ONE forum for everything. off topic, OP related, anyhting you want. It's pretty goofy. but i started coming here for spoilers and i decided to try acshully doing something. Thanks for the welcome!!
