Not criticising Zoro for fighting a different opponent, even if he fought the same opponent as Luffy, he'd have lost. He struggled against King... Luffy struggled against Kaido, there is levels to the power gap - he wouldn't have been able to gain the level on insight Luffy did intuitively -...

It has slowed him down because he is only able to start practicing since Gaban told him about it. Had Gaban not told him, he wouldn't know what to do right now. Furthermore, the fact he didn't know he could clad CoC means he took longer to defeat Lucci than he should have otherwise. It has...

No one is saying he is not improving, what is being said is he is not aware is all. The lack of awareness is why Gaban criticised him because if he isn't aware of it, he can't improve or get as strong as he needs to be as the Pirate King's right hand. Gaban criticised him is the point and Zoro...

He knows what CoC is, he has sensed it before, he knows what it is called - if he knew it had it, he'd call it CoC too. He and Lucci literally stopped fighting momentarily when they sensed the Gorose's CoC - so it's not that Zoro doesn't know what CoC is or aware of it, he didn't know he had...

As Mihawk said in Dressrosa flashback, if a blade gets nicked, it's a shame on a Swordsman - Haki is the only way to become the world's strongest Swordsman. Haki is also a part Swordsmanship just like it is for any form of fighting. You can't be the best or strongest without Haki. They received...

He didn't need Rayleigh, Rayleigh chose to teach him and simply sped up the education process. People like Luffy would have figured this thing out eventually. No one told him one could Clad attacks with CoC, he learnt that on his own, Zoro had to be told if you're trying to suggest Zoro is the...

It's not even a debate about Luffy being the most talented combat-wise. He figured out Kaido used CoC to defeat him, and he spent what, like several days in prison and then learnt Non-contact Armament, but he also learnt to use CoC against Kaido of all people. And then he defeated him. Zoro was...

Lol, what a chapter, I do like how Oda is always able to make humorous scenes with Zoro looking so serious and the opponent having comical expressions. Can't wait to see the next chapter in a couple of weeks. Will probably re-read the chapter again since we'll be on break next week I think, or...

I don't think Usopp is dodging CoO. If anything, I'd be more inclined to believe that people can erase their presence or conceal their strength to stay undetected. If Rayleigh for example, someone who is as strong as an Admiral/Emperor could hide in Mariejoa, he would have been sensed in...

Lol, some people will absolutely hate this development. On another note, saw the One Piece latest episode, and it seemed to give a different impression to the Manga in a sense, perhaps the wording is why. Gunko says Imu is trying to destroy the world, and not to destroy the world per se, but to...

That is actually a good point, I didn't think about what Shanks said, I'll have to read that again, nicely pointed out.

Agreed for sure! I did find it interesting what Gaban said. I think he knows who Imu is, I think because Luffy's not found the One Piece yet which imo is just the truth of the world, Gaban doesn't want to tell him in detail what Imu is, and wants him to find out. I think Luffy will not be able...

Gaban said Imu's a big secret. This is something I have been saying for years, Imu is the National Treasure of Mariejoa. As he said, knowledge of this would shake the world. If the world knew there was a king that ruled the world, the WG would collapse instantly. The WG is built on lies, if that...

Luffy will probably prove himself and there is the time-restriction limit hinted regarding Imu. Also, Shanks has/had a contract with Imu meaning Imu can control him if he is in the vicinity. I highly doubt just because Shanks chopped off his arm or rather, had it bitten off means Imu can't...

Either all 3 (2 whom are relevant) are able to make him struggle now it's a 3 on 1, or maybe Luffy gets a bit stronger now which won't be surprising. And we do have the concurrent hint that Imu's getting weaker as he's coughing blood and can't stay down here for too long. We'll see how things...
