While i do dislike that Oda is at it glazing his new OC Loki, i have to say he has restrained himself. Imu seems at a logical level of power. Also, i like how his fighting style excludes a sense of experience. It fits with his whole thing.

Why are we acting as if this attack is akin to Imu's Divine departure equivalent. It's a casual no name fireball attack. Also the ice cracked.

Oda never went to detail as always but it seems people know the Gorosei have way longer lifespans than normal humans.

I assume all CDs in general live a very long lifespan. They can just clone organs. Still it's absurd that their faces are public. I would buy that they are gods too if I knew some Grandpa Big shot has been alive for 300 years. It's centuries. It's a pity that Oda can't write cunning villains otherwise they would be very scary. Luffy is a dumbass. The villains can't be too smart.

The plot is doing some heavy lifting with Fujitora and Garp. Both should have been punished or even straight up executed. Kuzan should have been monitored. Akainu saying it's none of my business about Kuzan joining pirates is some Giga cope. The Gorosei were right. It was a huge marine fuck up.

This is a marine issue too. The Fleet Admirals should have managed their troops better. You aren't seeing any Holy Knight be cheeky with Gorosei.

The Celestial Dragons as a group have the best villains. Every other group has 2-3 characters and the rest are shit or at best mid. Marines are similar in enjoyment even then lower marines are kinda bland. Vice admirals are there to take space in pages. Tell me how many people like BB's crew ?

The most generic are one Shamrock who is just Oda glazing Shanks (At least for now Shamrock is exactly that, if he betrays his faction then genuinely trash character) and the brainwashed princess Gunko who isn't even a CD. Mind you we still have plenty of CDs that we haven't seen, be it civilians, God's steel and Holy Knights.

The civilian CDs are akin to Kaido's fodder. If you compare them fodder to fodder they are still better. Akainu where is the lobster ?

Shooting Kuma's dad was funny as a panel. Kuma gave you the slip ?

Kaido's crew and the scabbards scream one piece character but in a bad way. They are written with zero effort in mind. Oda just shoves the default jokes and personalities while changing the skin. Queen is a funny but Oda overdoes it with him damaging his own faction too much. King is a cool. Wasted Hawkins with the whole it was me that has 1% survival rate. Zero build up or conflict. The rest ?

i barely remember their name. Incest twins are for some reason pardoned for all crimes i guess cute girl, totally disreagrding that Kaido their father figure died. (Kinda unrelated but i can't help myself when it comes to shitting on wano + Yamato)

There is a reason why scabbards died an nobody cares. Kinemon aside who is annoying but still kinda get carried by panel time. Denjiro cool but generic sword dude who stole Hitl... Hiyori's moment by killing Orochi. The Ninja guy mostly due to Zoo. The Dukes are great but i kinda feel they were shoved there to boost the scabbards. I genuinely think it was a retcon. Big mom has a great crew but Oda wasted them.

Shanks' crew are just aura farmers the crew. Genuinely only care about the monkey and the fat guy. I have a distaste for my parents are related man.

BB's crew are not funny, half ass aura farming since they get shit on. They are repulsive like normal CDs but unlike the fodder CDs they are supposed to be Straw hat fights. Kuzan doesn't even count we all know he will leave or backstab them. Shiryu feels like sb that tries to look cool but fails. Add in his fruit which is cowardly in nature. Laffitte and Usopp's future victim are the only cool ones.

So i've been thinking about why Imu can't leave the Holy land and my take is the OP OP fruit. Like everything else it requires a room. This is why we don't have a dozen immortals around. It is restricted to the size of the fruit's room. Imu wants to expand the size using a massive ritual pentagram.

The 4 bridges + the redline form a Pentagram. Summoning God to the world. At that point Imu will be nigh unstoppable. Unrestricted movement and planetary range on all his abilities.

You juniors read too much slop. Only 1 to 2 novels get my seal of approval every year and it's a big if on whether it stays consistent enough for me to finish the novel. I don't touch Urban cultivation with a ten foot pole.

Would be very cool of the WG/CDs had technological fruit powered machines. Say a room made from machines, Time + Illusion fruits that is fueled by humans allowing you to basically train years in days with no lifespan cost or danger to the body.

A pool that removes toxins, fruit powers (you can try multiple fruit powers as such pick the correct one which you can awaken) and increases your chances of awakening conquerors. Lifespan increasing using the organ organ fruit, blood blood fruit and gene editing.

Oda should have leaned more into this type of dark technology fruits used for evil vibes.

Honestly Lucci being a CD fits. I've always thought that unwanted offspring with slaves aren't just thrown away. They are given to Cipher Pol, Marines or are made minor nobles in random kingdoms. This expands their power while keeping collateral bloodlines.

So Imu basically Jellybean diffed Zoro ?

So it was fire that transformed mid flight into bullets carrying the momentum. Imu could just grab a pebble and kill a YC+ with it if he aims for a vital organ.

I think we have seen enough for Wimu to be placed as number 1 most skilled weapon user on the planet. His range of weapons and fluidity is unmatched. I almost want to go back and shit talk those people that were yapping to me about Great Imu being a hax merchant 2-3 years ago.

Please think for a moment before coming up with theories. Lili can't be Zaza.

The CDs view Zaza as a great evil. It's clearly implied she was one of their main enemies during the void century. Why would Lili the woman that fought with them be Zaza ?

Imu thought she was just careless. Only recently did he confirm that Lili was a traitor.

This thing disgusts me. I truly understand how Mingo fans felt about Law in Dressrosa.

Stop playing with your food Wimu. One shot that gene merchant nepo baby carried by his broken hammer (Enma++).

If a character uses a new application of haki let's say internal destruction then Oda will make it very clear either by having the character himself comment on it or some side character. This is how Oda writes. He makes it very easy to understand for the younger readers. Don't grasp at straws.

How strong would Charlos be if he trained ?

Need i remind you that Charlos has no hint of fear and is relentless. What he wants he takes. A natural conqueror. Just you wait God's steel Charlos. The NTR blood runs thick in him. (Naturally Talented Regenerative Blood)
