I would say that he is above 4S Goo but below Hwarung Paecheon ...stronger than 4S Goo because of greater fighting experience + Hwarung sword...weaker than Hwarung Paecheon ... Because 4S Goo literally got no/Low Diffed by Hwarung Paecheon
How ahh your reading comprehension must be...to think that Johan> path+UI Daniel... let's be real...Johan isn't getting past pathniel ...
It was already a crazy feat because Gitae was Top 4 at that time ...but when it was later revealed that Gitae is a hybrid of the Yamazaki and kim family ...it massively uspcaled Daniel ...Daniel did that without any threshold or Masteries over his unique path and Ultra instinct...
and I can see that most of you have probably misinterpreted these panels by thinking that Daniel made Gitae kneel ....no that's not what exactly happened ...we have seen Gitae getting knocked down multiple times against Daniel and Jinyoung ....but in the very next panels we saw him standing still which means he got up without struggling ( he took a moment when Jinyoung knocked him down with true conviction punch but it was not to heal himself , more like he was lost in his thoughts) ...but that's not the case in these panels ....he tried to get up but he couldn't ...he took a few moments and use that black veins technique to heal the chest injury ....then got up ....means he struggled to get up ....
Daniel achieved all of these feats without crossing a single threshold , without mastering his unique path and ultra instinct ... So just imagine Daniel with 4 thresholds , mastered unique path and ultra instinct ...he will be unrivalled just like Gun predicted
I don't blame him ...the strongest opponent he faced is a Base HFG Gun ...Base Gun and 1S Goo are the strongest opponent he has ever seen or fought ( you can add Tom if you want to ) ... So he probably thinks Gitae is somewhere around their level ...
Anyways he needs to fight stronger opponents ( High kings or Tom lee level ) ...if he wants to close the gap between him and Daniel( who will definitely get stronger the next time we see him in a fight ) ... That's the first thing he needs to do....if he fights Gitae in his current level ...he will be brutally murdered by Gitae
Did PTJ forget about these two ? ...they looked really badass in this panel ...or is it that they are hidden aces of shingen who will appear after the trio gets defeated ?
He has multiple Masteries and the despair thing as well ...which confirms it that he had been push past his limits multiple times... And another thing I want to add is that unlocking UI won't give him a huge stats boost, he will only get the common advantages of UI... The huge stats boost thing is only applied to Daniel because of his kind and gentle nature
Asking random women to sleep with him and get pregnant...I don't see how it's funny at all....now I can understand a little why Gitae decided to kill him ...besides fighting and sleeping with women , what does this guy even good at ?
It's getting hard to defend oda nowadays ...the powerscaling is all over the place ...now it's effecting the plot too ...now some die hard oda fans will tell you that oda only cares about story ,not power scale ...naah bud , it's just getting out of hand , hazruddin should not be able to block an attack from imu who low diffed three yonko level characters already ....
According to me if they fight ....it will end up in a draw ...just because I think that mujin in his prime and garp has a lot of room to grow ...
