Where would Ace scale today? Honest question. He had all the potential.

I am mostly known for my Shanks agenda, but Ace is also one of my favorite characters. I really resonate with him. Agenda aside he might be my top 1.

He had all the Haki types, he was the son of the Pirate King, and was surrounded by really strong pirates early on in his life. Was part of a Yonko crew.

He had a powerful Devil Fruit imo.

I would say at least Yonko tier.

A certain game is about to start... And I want your input to make it better.

A game is about to start.

Make no mistake; this is no tournament.

This is a battle of wits. And a clash of characters, which will be randomly assigned to each player. The characters decide your abilities and win condition.

I want YOU to voice your opinion on what characters you want to see in the game.

Keep in mind the three main factions that will clash:

THE MARINES (Mafia)

THE PIRATES (Town)

THE SHICHIBUKAI (Neutral)

Loki durability is crazy

he could take an Omen attack in Base and finish his swing, while in his dragon form he took a named attack from Imu using a giant omen and he we see him uninjured afterwards, remember that Omen is Imu's military might despite the fact he possesses greater haki than anything in God Valley.

could the old gen even hurt him significantly?

TOPMAN for a reason (An analysis of St. Topman Warcury's performance on Future Island Egghead)

St. Topman Warcury, Godhead of Justice for the World Government, descends on Egghead through a Magic Circle spawned by St. Jaygarcia Saturn in his Fengxi Yokai form.

https://preview.redd.it/u07d69qosr2h1.png?width=2109&format=png&auto=webp&s=3b237ef378c6dc5147253d1050efdffbbe515ae1

​Upon the arrival of Warcury along with the other three Gorosei on Egghead, characters such as Rob Lucci and Roronoa Zoro immediately noticed Conqueror's Haki presence so disturbing that it was actively disrupting their battle. Sanji immediately noticed and was determined to leave the island as soon as possible, while Jinbe commented on how unreal this Haki was (a shared feat among St. Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro, St. Shepherd Ju Peter, St. Marcus Mars, and Topman Warcury).

https://preview.redd.it/a8y9a48ysr2h1.png?width=1103&format=png&auto=webp&s=417b1bdad145f35f543e261562d843479abf3955

​Warcury's first action on Egghead was to unleash a massive Conqueror's Haki-infused roar that physically blew away surrounding buildings. It also blew away and caused the nearest individuals Dorry, Broggy, and Gear 5 Luffy to instinctively bring their shields or hands up in a guarded position from the Conqueror's Haki (CoC).

Near the head of Broggy and the shield of Jarul can be seen the onomatopoeia 「ジリ」(ZZT) paired with the black lightning indicator, which indicates an exceptionally strong infusion of Conqueror's Haki into the roar. In fact, the ZZT sound effect has specifically been used by Oda in post-Onigashima to indicate when Advanced Conqueror's Haki (ACoC) is being applied, supporting the idea that Warcury likely possesses ACoC. This is an instance of CoC infusion into a scream attack, but I will continue referring to it as a CoC roar since this is not a confirmed instance of ACoC.

>ASIDE: The fact that ZZT combined with black lightning implies the use of CoC and ACoC does not imply that the converse is true. That is, it is not true that the use of CoC and ACoC is necessarily predicated on the presence of black lightning and ZZT onomatopoeia. This is proven in great detail here.

Near the shield of Broggy can be seen the onomatopoeia 「パキッ」(CRAK), which is described as a specifically succinct and brittle snapping sound, which aligns with likely some damage being done to the surroundings in future panels and potentially Broggy's shield by the physical impact force of the roar.

Yet due to the nonpresence of any obvious sources of cracks/snaps (as this onomatopoeia is often used to indicate bones snapping) or even obvious structural damage in the panel where the onomatopoeia is shown, it may be a CoC sound effect. CRAK is typically not present during most standard CoC releases (nonpresent during Luffy's CoC release on Fishman Island, Doflamingo's CoC release on Punk Hazard, or even more recent instances such as Luffy's CoC release in Udon prison), so it may represent a sound of the electricity from Warcury's intense CoC roar ripping through the air.

Surrounding the roar are shockwaves from the physical impact of the roar emanating through the trees and buildings, causing intense structural damage across a large distance from the place where the roar was unleashed.

https://preview.redd.it/n3d6sbahtr2h1.png?width=1005&format=png&auto=webp&s=1b39d18682a231cb4d53530d4ce1f170931f5b84

​In the moments after, we see a 「スポーン」(SHOOMP) effect as Luffy is rapidly pulled back by the force of Warcury's CoC roar, where the physical impact and CoC were enough to separate parts of rubberized Gear 5 Luffy.

Immediately following this, the force of the unleashed CoC was distributed across Egghead Island, where it caused trees and buildings several kilometers away to sway from the impact. The black lightning of the CoC roar is felt intensely throughout the island, signified by the**「バチチ」**(BZZT) and ZZT effects.

​The reactions of 2 marines in the upper panel are of sheer, paralyzing terror when faced with Warcury's CoC blast. As there were 9 total Vice Admirals that participated in the Buster Call (where each Vice Admiral commands ten warships), there were 90 warships commanded by 9 Vice Admirals + 10 warships commanded by Admiral Kizaru = 100 total warships. Of these, 9 were physically boarded by their respective Vice Admiral and 1 was boarded by Admiral Kizaru.

https://preview.redd.it/hpt1vl7ptr2h1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=5487bf237c3a569fe1ae0638e3c1552cb152e667

This scene took place on one of these 100 warships, and we know that these 2 marines rank at least higher than Warrant Officer because they had the 「正義」(JUSTICE) high coats and shoulder epaulets, which are only worn by Commissioned Marine Officers. We also know that they are at least ranking below Vice Admirals, because the faces in the panel did not match any of the Vice Admirals that were shown to arrive on Egghead (Doberman, Doll, Bluegrass, Hound, Pomsky, Urban, Tosa, Guillotine, Red King) and obviously did not match Admiral Kizaru. Therefore, Warrant Officer < [ranks of these 2 marines] < Vice Admiral. So, while Joyboy's CoC release knocked out individuals of Vice Admiral level, Warcury's CoC blast was powerful enough to significantly intimidate individuals not far below Vice Admiral rank such as Hina (Rear Admiral), T Bone (Rear Admiral), Prince Grus (Rear Admiral) Kujaku (Rear Admiral), Koby (Captain; albeit he is stronger than his rank and is a bit of an outlier), Tashigi (Captain), Donquixote Rosinante (Commander; albeit he was undercover, his rank might not have been reassessed for a long time), Hibari (Commander), and Helmeppo (Lieutenant Commander). Remember, this assumes that their Marine rank is representative of combat (specifically Haki) prowess relative to the Fleet Admiral, which is relatively true but may have some fluctuations due to uniquely specific combat abilities.

The 2 marines that get knocked out in the lower panel are likely members of the Seaman ranks based on their clothing, while the one that remained standing may be of any rank [rank of the marine that remained] < Vice Admiral since the clothes are not shown enough to gauge what rank they could hold. However, it is certainly not a face that can be matched with any of the Vice Admirals or Admiral Kizaru, so the marine that withstood the CoC roar must be below that rank.

https://preview.redd.it/e15cqnxutr2h1.png?width=1536&format=png&auto=webp&s=3accfa1483b6b942c1508f316885ee92f6fd72f6

​The CoC roar that Warcury displayed is exceptionally similar to that which Charlotte Linlin did on Whole Cake Island upon discovering that the portrait of Mother Carmel was destroyed. Specifically, the presence of the black lightning indicator suggests that there was Conqueror's Haki infused within that scream.

This scream was strong enough to knock out several Tea Party guests and render in agony several members of the Big Mom Pirates such as Charlotte Daifuku, Mont D'Or, Basskarte, and Effilée along with Vinsmoke Reiju, Ichiji, Niji, Yonji, and Judge (characters who are of varying strength but generally mid-tier fighters ≈ Tobiroppo ≈ Vice Admiral level).

Warcury's CoC roar had an extremely similar impact on surrounding Marines who ranked below Vice Admiral as Linlin's Haki scream, and was shown to make them be terrified while knocking out the weakest Seaman rank Marines (just as the regular Tea Party guests were knocked out).

https://preview.redd.it/djjhekoztr2h1.png?width=1314&format=png&auto=webp&s=8ac134c26a9b6586e61b94ef77cadb3396261b5a

​However, Linlin's scream specifically did not impact some notably weaker individuals such as Chopper, because Chopper was wearing earplugs at the time. If it was a regular CoC intimidation blast (as we have seen from Luffy on Fishman Island, Doflamingo on Punk Hazard, Luffy in Udon Prison), Linlin's Haki should easily have been enough to incapacitate Chopper as CoC intimidation is not an attack dependent on hearing.

However, due to it being CoC imbued into a scream attack, Linlin's Haki was blocked by the fact that the attack wasn't able to land on Chopper. This, in addition to the black lightning indicator surrounding Linlin (ZZT was not in use at this time as an indicator for CoC), supports the idea that Linlin's scream attack may have been a CoC-infused ACoC roaring attack.

>ASIDE: Consider the island of Egghead, which is relatively portrayed as a small-to-medium sized tropical island considering that pretty much holds one major city (Future City or Fabriophase) and surrounding tropical landscapes. Considering that, the island's radius is likely approximately around 7km < [island radius] < 15km as a complete lowball estimate (theories suggest it may be upto 25km, but that only further supports the hypothesis). Now, consider that the Labophase and Punk Records are hoisted on island clouds, which we know to naturally rest and exist at about a height of 7km in the White Sea (the White-White Sea is not relevant, as it exists even higher than the White Sea, and we would not be able to see the ground level of Egghead or the Blue Sea from the Labophase if it existed at the same elevation as the White-White Sea). With the highball estimate that the Labophase exists at a height of 7km, consider that at the point of Warcury's CoC release, members of the Straw Hats were with Vegapunk clones at the island cloud level of the Labophase.

Now, we know that Marines off of the coast of Egghead were knocked out by the effects of Warcury's CoC, which by our estimate is between 7-15km from the center of Egghead were the CoC blast occurred. Now, weaker (Haki-wise) members of the Straw Hats such as Nami, Usopp, Chopper, Robin, and Brook were present on the island-cloud level of the Labophase at a vertical height of approximately 7km when Warcury's CoC blast happened. However, they felt little-to-no impact because of the Labophase Frontier Dome protecting them from the physical impacts of the roar (the island swaying, buildings crumbling) and their Egghead outfits all featuring various forms of headgear (Nami's/Usopp's/Robin's headphones, Chopper's headcap, Brook's astronaut helmet) that protected them from any amount of the CoC roar they might have been able to hear. So, in a similar way to Chopper's earplugs protecting him from Linlin's CoC scream, the headgear of all of the weaker Straw Hats in combination with the protection of the Labophase's Frontier Dome allowed them to have virtually no reaction to Warcury's CoC roar.

https://preview.redd.it/zzaq0a35ur2h1.png?width=1672&format=png&auto=webp&s=992c52a8002c040c6c6203cfcecb98385f91d082

​Linlin's CoC-infused screaming attack, like Warcury's, had significant spatial impacts in the blowing away of surrounding objects and even the premature explosion of two missiles fired from a KX Launcher (missiles hand-crafted to be able to pierce Big Mom's iron-like skin) before they reached her.

This incident overall highly parallels Warcury's CoC roar due to the similar stylistic choices of the emanating shockwaves surrounding the roaring attacks and the presence of the black lightning indicator of CoC. In addition, Warcury's and Linlin's CoC roars had significant physical impacts in the destruction of surrounding buildings and application of a force that pushed back surrounding individuals.

In both instances, weaker individuals were knocked out by the CoC blast (Marines on Egghead, Tea Party guests on Whole Cake Island) while stronger ones felt intense agony in listening to the roar. In addition, despite weaker individuals being in range of both Linlin's scream and Warcury's roar, they were able to avoid it by not listening to scream; this is reminiscent of a CoC-infused attack rather than a standard CoC intimidation blast. Finally, the physical impacts of both instances suggest that they were not mere CoC intimidation blasts and rather a full-fledged roaring attacks that were infused with CoC.

https://preview.redd.it/nai1y82eur2h1.png?width=1006&format=png&auto=webp&s=2deecc8e90827b61b44ea304f1723b5f2767ddb6

​Luffy is then shown reattaching his rubberized body parts that were separated during the impact, specifically noting that "THAT WAS A CLOSE ONE." due to the fact that Warcury's CoC-infused roar may have separated his body parts to a point where he was unable to find some of them, meaning that the CoC roar possessed a real threat to him.

Following the incident, Dorry and Broggy are visibly stunned by the impact of the CoC-infused roar, theorizing about how powerful Warcury may be.

The 「ギュルルル」(SHWIRR) onomatopoeia indicates a rapid spinning sound, which represents Warcury somersaulting several times in the air. Despite Warcury's immense weight and tanky build, he possesses immense maneuverability and agility to the point where he can quickly jump to a vertical height significantly greater than the height of average Giants and is able to somersault several times in the air before landing.

Warcury lands with his sword-tusks on Dorry and Broggy, and a visible clash ensued between him and the Giants (whose arm veins were fully activated [💢], showing an extreme difficulty in trying to block the physical impact of Warcury's hit). Warcury did not use Armament Haki (CoA) on these tusk-swords, and this impact was parried after an even exchange as Dorry and Broggy use Svalinn Sun Shield against Warcury. Warcury, Dorry, and Broggy are shown in the following panel with no lasting impacts from the exchange.

https://preview.redd.it/ji1kh03jur2h1.png?width=1006&format=png&auto=webp&s=c8c10540b972f6ebcc8de2fcfa657bbe0871a117

​Then, the 「ギリ」(GRK) whirring sound effect beside the sword-tusks indicate that a new pair of regenerated swords at full strength are unsheathed by Warcury to mount another attack on Dorry and Broggy. There is no indication that these sword-tusks took considerable damage in the first place, but Warcury may have regenerated them to recover any minimal chip damage from the initial clash. 

Dorry and Broggy successfully parry Warcury's next attack with Skilja Split, using the momentum of Warcury's attack to destabilize him.

>ASIDE: When the giants intercept the boar’s sword tusks with their shields, they create a sudden opposing force that converts the boar’s forward momentum into rotational motion through torque. Instead of trying to overpower the charge head-on, Dorry and Broggy weaponize Warcury's own speed against him. Because the tusks are far in front of Warcury's center of mass, stopping or lifting them creates a rotational pivot while the rest of the body continues surging forward due to inertia. The faster Warcury charges, the more violently his own momentum carries his mass over that pivot point. Once Warcury's center of gravity is forced beyond the area supported by its legs, gravity no longer stabilizes it and instead pulls the body downward into a flip. In summary, the giants are not “lifting” Warcury's full weight directly; they are redirecting the energy of the charge so that Warcury topples itself. This is the same principle behind how charging bulls, motorcycles, or even armored vehicles can overturn when their forward motion is abruptly caught at a single point while the rest of the mass keeps moving.

Considering the fact that Warcury's charge was pivoted against him, this is a nearly even exchange only barely in favor of Dorry and Broggy, considering there are two of them with extraordinary Giant physical strength who were able to parry and redirect Warcury's own momentum.

This exchange is often interpreted as Dorry and Broggy striking Warcury's "soft belly underside" or targeting his "weak spot", when as far as we know, Warcury has no provably nondefensible area in his Fengxi yokai form. Dorry and Broggy were unable to even counterattack or clash with their swords, as the sheer physical power of Warcury's attack meant that they had to assume defensible positions with their shields and were only able to parry by exploiting Warcury's center of mass.

https://preview.redd.it/vkiwbll5vr2h1.png?width=1536&format=png&auto=webp&s=c46979982ed726b1245b4a692343a7761d5e194e

​Within moments, Saturn launches a retaliatory attack against Luffy, which he bats back at Saturn, Warcury, and Ju Peter. Notably, Warcury is shown to be on his feet again here despite being flipped over by Dorry and Broggy moments ago, again representing his honed agility despite his tanky build.

Upon landing, all three of the Gorosei are hit with a heavy explosion from Saturn's attack and are all confirmed to have been hit by Broggy's statement "YOU BLEW 'EM TO BITS!!" and Luffy's reaction. Immediately after, the three are seen regenerating from the impact, which is confirmed by the 「ザララ」(SHUNK) onomatopoeia.

https://preview.redd.it/l8ttjjbjvr2h1.png?width=1528&format=png&auto=webp&s=fe1f735adfdc1c192d70e2223ae0d4bc328c5c4d

​The fact that Warcury, Ju Peter, and Saturn didn't dodge the attack is due to their predisposition to being complacent and reliant on their regeneration capabilities. Since they knew they could regenerate from the attack, there was no need for them to dodge the attack, which is outright stated by Saturn when Bonney stabs him with a sword earlier in Egghead. In addition, due to the newly introduced regeneration gimmick, Oda feels the need to properly showcase it with the antagonists, and therefore makes them undergo a mandatory process of tanking an attack → needing to heal → regenerating to full health, an extension of the common Good Thing You Can Heal! trope.

However, it is not known how much damage Warcury specifically took from the impact of Saturn's explosive attack. Regardless of how much damage Warcury took from this, it serves as a Saturn upscale since Warcury's durability is the upper echelon of the verse as Luffy was ultimately unable to decisively damage Warcury. 

https://preview.redd.it/jbkj9v9yvr2h1.png?width=1624&format=png&auto=webp&s=7942f9517f5dabc2ae56e00c0cb8af4b8c9a514a

​On Onigashima, pre-ACoC Luffy punches Kaidou with Red Roc, an attack that uses Advanced Armament Haki (ACoA) through Internal Destruction (ID), which he specifically trained for the purposes of bypassing Kaidou's scaly exterior durability. Luffy's attack landed decisive damage on Kaidou, who was portrayed to have high durability "He was sentenced to death 40 times...When they hanged him, the chains broke...when they sent him to the guillotine, the blade shattered...Even when they impaled him, the spears broke...".

When Luffy attacked Warcury with Red Roc on Egghead, it was accompanied by the shrill 「ゴキィン!!」(KLANG!!) onomatopoeia which is synonymous with his fist making contact with a hard, unbending object. Afterwards, Luffy immediately feels a 「ビリッ」(RTL) onomatopoeia, indicating a vibrating or ringing feeling that came from the fact that his soft, rubbery arm was struck by an extremely hard object. Luffy then exclaims in intense pain from the encoutner and is shown to have his arm swelling and pulsating due to the force of the impact.

Warcury is shown to take no damage from the fist impact or the ACoA, meaning that the durability negation of ID had little-to-no effect on Warcury, while it completely floored Kaidou. This means that not only is Warcury's exterior durability significantly stronger than that of Kaidou, but his internal organs are also significantly more durable than Kaidou, as there are no signs of the SHUNK onomatopoeia that indicates regeneration occurring in his internal organs.

https://preview.redd.it/afixrz3bwr2h1.png?width=1638&format=png&auto=webp&s=95177d8fb6b709fdd442802269624bee86ce2ffb

​Warcury's Fengxi yokai form seems to have an ability that allows it to shoot flames out, shooting with enough reach to get close to the Giants and Luffy who are running away. However, these flames have significantly less force behind them than some other flame-based attacks such as Kaidou's Bolo Breath, which would shot laser beams with force that plowed through mountains and even shot Luffy completely off of Onigashima. However, flame remains a good form of area control for regenerating combatants as it prevents others from entering certain "areas of denial", allowing for tactical control of the battlefield and forcing others to be pursued.

https://preview.redd.it/tpkhsntjwr2h1.png?width=1228&format=png&auto=webp&s=ddac6e75e211351c869f8ce1fcc8f1b5a60faa4a

​After Red Roc didn't work, Luffy transforms into Gear 5 and is determined that this next attack will work, exclaiming "THIS ONE WILL HURT YA!!!". Since Luffy used CoA and ACoA in Red Roc to no avail, it is extremely likely that Luffy applied ACoC to this currently unnamed attack in an attempt to deliver a decisive blow to Warcury's snout.

>ASIDE: Based on the visuals, it seems to be either the Gear 5 version of Gum-Gum Pistol or Gum-Gum Elephant Gun, which could be either Gum-Gum Dawn Pistol, Star Gun, or Bajrang Gun (all of which include the application of ACoC).

In the aftermath of this attack, Warcury again did not take any decisive damage, while Luffy like earlier took damage from the impact, as shown by the 「ドォン」(DOOM) heavy impact onomatopoeia. Luffy's arm swells and pulsates as he cries, showing that he once again was not able to bypass the durability of Warcury even with the likely use of ACoC.

Note also that while attacks of this caliber in Gear 5 form were able to completely rubberize Kaidou, Kizaru, and Saturn, they were unable to make a dent on or even impact Warcury's skin in the slightest. These attacks would go completely through them and rubberize their skin, while Warcury seemingly was unaffected by Lufy's use of ACoC and the Hito Hito no Mi: Model Nika's awakening.

Even if Warcury supposedly didn't take damage due to regenerating his insides, there is no indication of the SHUNK regeneration onomatopoeia. Plus, considering that this was an ACoC attack from a yonko-level Luffy, it would have likely significantly stunted Warcury's regeneration. The fact that the ACoC and ACoA either didn't do significant damage to Warcury's interior and didn't stunt Warcury's regeneration significantly serves as an immense upscale for Warcury's Haki and his durability.

https://preview.redd.it/7j6gpx1rwr2h1.png?width=1723&format=png&auto=webp&s=2a7beb6cea0ec1d074e4fe37afecb26e573fb201

​After Luffy's attack failed against Warcury, the Giants and Luffy are looking visibly more worried as they try to escape the flames and the impending wrath of Warcury due to the ground they lost from Luffy trying to attack Warcury. Again, this represents the utility of the flame ability for area control due to the ability's Area of Effect (AoE) being extremely large due to the size of the Fengxi yokai form.

https://preview.redd.it/wptqgbgvwr2h1.png?width=1149&format=png&auto=webp&s=3808bb30e09ae73d6d112724531ca0c640a567ec

​Later, Warcury offguarded and toppled the Iron Giant Emet after charging at it in order to destroy the Transponder Den Den Mushi that was broadcasting Vegapunk's message.

It should be recall that Emet is the size of an Ancient Giant, so it comes to stand that this is akin to toppling someone who is the size of Loki, Oars, or Harald. Since Emet was offguarded, it was unable to dodge or prepare for the strike, though its movement speed and agility is not fast enough to do so anyways.

https://preview.redd.it/l2u34pqxwr2h1.png?width=875&format=png&auto=webp&s=10ec21a88776df81a5500e7ed07c240ea7309b4e

​Warcury and Saturn are aware that they have more pressing matters to attend to, and charge towards the middle of the island. Luffy and Bonney are currently near the coast of Egghead, where Bonney uses Distorted Future to mimic Luffy's Gear 5 zoan transformation. Warcury and Saturn, who are several kilometers inland, have such refined Observation Haki (CoO) to the point where they not only are able to isolate the presence of Bonney on the coastline but realize that her form is Nika-resembling, indicating an insane level of CoO mastery that prioritizes range and precision.

This is an exceptionally underrated feat, as this indicates that Warcury's (and Saturn's) base CoO may be the upper echelon of the verse, since similar statements were even made about Dracule Mihawk; his moniker of "Hawk Eye" comes from his insane mastery of base CoO that allows him to spot ships from several kilometers away.

https://preview.redd.it/5r1g2o033s2h1.png?width=1448&format=png&auto=webp&s=2be5af963a62a9913b53d77707c3c22c36cac186

​This panel continues with the reinforcement of the previous realizations that Luffy had about Warcury's durability, meaning that a current yonko has recognized Warcury's insane durability as being superior to their own. Not only that, but it places Warcury's durability squarely above Kaidou's, since Luffy was able to find a solution for that through ACoA, while both ACoA and ACoC seem to have failed Luffy against Warcury's exterior and interior durability. So while Kaidou's durability was an exceptional point of discussion during Wano, it has been surpassed by Luffy's recognition of Warcury's immense durability.

​This is the only minor antifeat that Warcury suffers throughout the entirety of Egghead. A damaged Emet that tanked Warcury's previous charge emerges from the water, offguarding a charging Warcury and squarely snapped off a part of his tusks, which were not destroyed by Luffy, Dorry, Broggy, or anyone on Egghead (except potentially by Saturn's explosive attacks that Luffy hit back).

However, it should be noted that no one was seen to be attacking Warcury's regular tusks throughout the entirety of Egghead, as Dorry and Broggy only successfully parried his sword-tusks, and Luffy only struck the bottom of his head and his snout, all to no avail. His tusks may be exceptionally brittle, but from what we have seen and the fact that Warcury usually keeps his regular tusks out means they are likely quite defensible, so the fact that Emet was able to squarely snap off a part of his tusks serves as an upscale for Emet's Attack Potency (AP) and physical strength. However, as Emet is an Iron Giant who is made up mostly of metal, is the size of an Ancient Giant, invaded Mary Geoise 200 years ago, and is powered by an ancient energy source which also powers Ancient Weapons, it's safe to say that this isn't that much of a downscale for Warcury. Warcury, of course, regenerated this quickly.

https://preview.redd.it/oi0tr15nyr2h1.png?width=1149&format=png&auto=webp&s=bf2a5b91a580b246b65c965aa6be6b7334bdf2d9

​Warcury replicates his previous action against Iron Giant Emet by knocking him down, but this time he was onguard since Emet was facing towards Warcury. A 「**ガシャッ!!」**(KRUNCH!!) onomatopoeia can be heard as Warcury seemingly crushes Emet under his feat, who is made fully of iron. Ultimately, their exchanges were pretty even considering that Warcury offguarded Emet the first time, Emet offguarded Warcury the second time, and Warcury onguard defeated Emet fully the third time.

It also seems that Warcury actively aims to correct his antifeats, as the tip of his tusk is seen colored specifically black while in all other panels it was colored white near the tip of his tusk, portraying that he likely applied CoA to the tips of his tusks against Emet since they broke earlier.

https://preview.redd.it/9n8gcbgsyr2h1.png?width=1410&format=png&auto=webp&s=fd079733bdae49f571426e1e7c956d12b3b093d7

Finally, Joyboy's CoC forced Warcury out of his Fengxi yokai form and returned him to the Mary Geoise, though this was shared by Nusjuro, Mars, Ju Peter, and Saturn (albeit he was already on Egghead). In addition, Imu was also impacted by the release of Joyboy's CoC, so this shouldn't be an antifeat for Warcury in the slightest.

Warcury had the best performance on Egghead out of any of the Gorosei as a Gear 5 Luffy who was rubberizing Kaidou, Kizaru, and Saturn was unable to affect Warcury or even land a single decisive hit on him. In addition, he has the single best mass-scale Conqueror's Haki blast; this places him squarely as an Admiral-Low Yonko level combatant.

Loki vs Imu analysis

Loki vs Imu has became the current main topic, and with it already being decently long, i wanted to analyse it to give my idea of the fight.

NERFS: before starting, i wanted to point out that both characters are nerfed, Imu cannot stay outside of the Holyland and the moment he landed on Elbaph he spit a lot of blood, and Loki got severaly injured before to the point of being close to death, and no he isn’t an awakened zoan so that doesn't mean he's already fully healed and it would also diminish Oda intent and the whole reason Loki even got injured, as you would have to suggest Oda added a narrative point that is useless, which is unlikely to be the case.

BASE LOKI VS IMU: Loki launch a named attack using Ragnir but Imu block pretty casually using Omen, then Imu becomes a giant and attacks Loki with Omen, which Loki reacts to and clash evenly, then Imu manages to blitz Loki and pierce him with a named attack, Loki gets up and tries to attack again but Imu outspeed him and land another attack with Omen, Loki withstands it and attacks but Imu dodges easily, we then see Loki is sitting on the ground, gets up and hits a distracted Imu sending him to the adam tree and injuring him.

MY OPINION: Imu may not be going all out, as he wants to make Loki his soldier, but if he could have knocked out Loki at any time, then he would have, so it is a feat for Loki that he withstood attacks from Imu and kept going, speed wise Loki got far outclassed as he was blitzed twice, but still managed to react atleast once which is impressive, then he managed to hurt Imu but counting the fact he was distracted we can't really say how impressive it is, overall if Imu's intention was to kill Loki he could have probably done it when he stabbed him, and also had Loki on the ground but decided to job and had flashbacks of Joy Boy, so yea Base Loki isn't really close to Imu and would get no to low diffed.

DRAGON LOKI VS IMU: Loki's Thorheim got Imu worried and forced him to block with Omen, but Imu succeeded, then they both use a named attack, Imu seems to block while Loki tanks, then Loki launches another named attack which Imu counters using another named attack.

OPINION: the fact Loki got imu worried is impressive considering he has haki higher than anything seen at God Valley, and the fact Loki could tank attacks from Imu's military might (that should scale above his haki) so casually is impressive asf, and also Imu has always to use a named attack to counter Loki's right now.

CONCLUSION: Loki is for sure only getting upscaled from this, to give a diff right now wouldn't be possible as the fight didn't end and both has yet to go all out.

Lets talk about mihawk powerset : (observation projection/gaslighting , supreme color of armenant haki , vampire powers, speical power set of dracula)

&#x200B;

We saw in marine ford that mihawk made luffy dodge by combining his king of vampires acoc with his future sight to make luffy dodge, this can also be used to show your opponent what you want them to see

Shanks may have observation killing but mihawk can gaslight you to fall into your doom , Zoro will bypass this with his new demonic form

There is a higher level of haki called supreme armenant haki that can cut dimensions and crack reality and forge a black blade

Vampires powers : he can suck blood and have super healing while being hurt in the sun and 100x base stats of normal humans

Dracula (king of vampires) : instead of being hurt in the sun dracule mihawk just gets massively weaker that is how shanks was able to match mihawk he was fighting 1% mihawk , and he gets special type of conqueror haki , the king of vampires mihawk

And since Zoro is manifesting his king of hell persona on the shape of a 6 horns demon it will be a battle of blood vs hell

King of hell Zoro vs king of vampires mihawk strongest being of today vs strongest being in history
