Hmmm. Please, Pirate Queen. Enlightened me where the subtle subtext is. Seriously. Maybe I'm missing something. And no, some schlocky answer like, "isn't it obvious? If you don't see it, you'll never get it" is gonna work. Give a SUBSTANTIVE answer

Wait, that's not how that spoiler reads at all. While it may be true Mihawk doesn't have it, him alerting Zoro to something that doesn't change shouldn't read to you, "but I don't have that it." Chill and wait young'n. He needs to EXPLICITLY state he lacks it. I gathered from the spoilers that...

For what it's worth the market does provide other sources of amusement if One Piece and Zoro, in particular, are just numbnuts with nothing worth engaging in. The amount of Usopp>Zoro respect is so far fetched I feel like I'm in the twilight zone at times in this forum. Must be an inside joke...

I think you're spot on here. Seeing as to how HK is selective AND the wielder has to understand their own purpose to actually manifest it's fullness, I can only see mortal combat being HK advancement for these guys. HK manifestation, at least it's actual advancement, is a lonely road the wielder...

Would it be safe to say the highest form of HK for both Luffy and Zoro, and therefore for any crew member possessing HK, has to be accessed through mortal combat? It seems while the top three can be taught some of the basics, a hard push in battle seems to always take a mortal turn in order to...

Hannibal, I think you're not reading my post clearly. Here's how I know: 1. It has slowed him down because he is only able to start practicing since Gaban told him about it. I said he hasn't been efficiently wielding the power, but he has gotten the job done. I even said he could've done...

All of this makes zero sense in that none of it is anything I've denied. 1. IM not claiming idiocy. I'm stating he's done noth Let's clear this up because, having read your response, I can tell you CLEARLY didn't read the exchange leading up to this. I'll break this down as clearly as I can...

The fact that Gaban literally says Zoro's body is growing accustomed to Coc usage is implicit of his growth/improvement DESPITE him being unawares. So, I'm not sure where you were going with that one. Because this isn't even the disagreement, at least for me. I never denied he knew OF a power...

Bud, no need to jump in. You're a dollar short and a day late. This ship has sailed. But you can add to the conversation if you think you have something valid. This is a discussion board after all, despite my protestations to the Zoro bashing, which I still think is irrelevant to his capacity to...

My reference to calling defending Zoro from the title of moron is coming from some weird side chatter that is making it a point of saying he doesn't know that he's using Coc. Which I don't think means a damn thing and is a nonpoint. The fact that he's manipulating the power that he clearly is...

So now I don't make sense? Nice substantive answer. And yes, Zoro is a genius. My response to this is the same to kckk. Being aloof and a moron are pretty different. Hmmm not wielding CoC in the way Luffy and other characters do doesn't make him a moron. If anything, him using CoC when he...

"Huh, so this is cladding. Surprisingly easy to use considering it's the first time ever. I must be a genius." Is this not your quote above? I believe you made a point of saying he doesn't have awareness when HE DOES! My point in saying he may not recognize it as Coc doesn't mean he isn't aware...

Whether Zoro knows he's using haki or not isn't the point. Whether the AUDIENCE knows that he does or doesn't know he's been using haki is beside the point. The FACT that Zoro knows, since the Kaido arc, that his body can now give him the power he needs to wield and deal effective blows is the...

Yeah, I'm sure he did once he realized what was required to keep up with his swords demands. I'd check that one, bud. And what does him using before this chapters moment mean exactly? Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm pretty sure zoro is aware of CoC. Not fluent in it, but definitely aware...

Watching Zoro speed up his understanding of Coc in real-time is pretty amazing. I had a thought that flashed along the lines of Zoro possibly being POTENTIALLY stronger than Luffy. We witnessed an entire arc dedicated to Luffy learning what Zoro had a few seconds to think about and immediately...
