Ground Rules for the Power Level Discussion Thread
​

As always, please follow the guidelines set by the Forum Rules that apply across the board.

It's important that discussions from a current chapter are spoiler tagged until 24h have passed from an english release.

  • For the sake of constructive discussion, where and when possible please quote/ source any information you provide. Particularly when it comes to conversations carried over from other threads.
  • Avoid passive agressive posts, sly remarks or baiting/trolling. You can certainly have fun or disagree without it being at someone's expense.
  • Only use anime examples that are canon and as means to provide clarity to pages in the manga. Any other anime material is otherwise non-canon and should only be referenced if it can be proved that the mangaka had approved it.
  • We will strive to avoid repetitive discussions and any extensive battle topics will be guided to the Davy Back fight to existing threads or new ones can be made there.

As of now these topics are shelved due to repetitiveness or until the manga can present us with material to further discussions:

  1. Shanks v Mihawk
  2. Hand to hand fighters > Swordsmen
  3. Zoro > Luffy
  4. Zoro v Sanji
  5. Is Smoker a top 30 character?
  6. Mihawk's rank within the story
  7. Law having CoC currently.
  8. Katakuri > Kaido/Luffy/Etc.

If you wish to continue any of these discussion and remove it from the list, you will need to provide manga material as proof. If there's also anything you think we've covered numerous times, let me know and I'll update the list.

This is the only warning there'll be regarding these ground rules, anything no adhering will be removed. So please just check your posts before posting them.

Shank one shooting Kid is the same as Kaido one shooting distracted Oden = irrelevant of power level...

It's the same as Kaido one shooting Luffy who was in rage and not focusing.

At that tier of fighting we know that distraction is fatal.
Look Marineford, Akainu almost one shoted Whitebeard in his counter attack. Kuzan froze Jozu in a second of distraction.

When you go against Admiral or Yonkou you have to stay focus at every moment, or suffer of a quick defeat !

According to @BlackTiger if u can stalemate ur an equal meaning kidd=BM Kidd is yonko lvl

katakuri=kaido since they had a harder time beating luffy (even tho he beat him 3 times)

His conclusion is katakuri=Kidd=BM=kaido

Never said that. I'm saying Kidd without awakening did much better to Big Mom than much stronger Kidd did (powercreep scaling) against Shanks. Because Kidd managed to fought Big Mom stalemating her until Law came to his aid while Kidd cannot last more than 10 seconds against Shanks.

No I'm just calling out your hypocrisy. Shanks high diffs Big Mom despite Big Mom got stalemated by non awakening Kidd while Shanks 1 shot much stronger Kidd (powercreep argument)

Kaido low diffs Katakuri despite Katakuri almost 3 shot Boundman if Boundman didn't run away and Katakuri even did not use his fastest attack while Kaido had to use Thunder Bagua his fastest attack.

Shanks far outperformed Big Mom yet you still scale him on Big Mom tier.

Kaido never outperformed Katakuri against Boundman yet you said Kaido low diffs Katakuri.

Just calling out your bias. Not saying Katakuri is yonko level. Just disagree with the difficulty that Kaido beats Katakuri since you had the nerve to put Shanks on Big Mom tier despite Shanks far outperformed Big Mom while Kaido never outperformed Katakuri against Boundman yet you said Kaido low diffs Katakuri.

I know it's hard to defend Big Mom from Shanks when Big Mom performance against Kidd was abysmal because it will expose your hypocrisy claiming Kaido low diffs Katakuri despite Katakuri performance against Boundman was better than Kaido performance against Boundman.

I thought you quoted me because you can answer my question yet I was wrong you quoted me because you just want to rant how you cannot answer my question.

It's not the same battle situation... If Big Mom could have a free shot of her best attack against a distracted Shank he will certainly be knock out too...
You can't compare two differents situation with the same prism...

It won't work because Shanks has FS unlike Kidd whose CoO is nonexistent. If Shanks knows he is fighting Big Mom and Big Mom clearly attacks him from the front, like Shanks did against Kidd then Shanks would easily dodge Big Mom attacks.

Kidd was also not distracted. He knew he was fighting Shanks. Shanks also attacked him from the front. He was aiming to destroy all 9 ships which contained Shanks. It's Kidd own fault his CoO detected Shanks too late when he clearly knew Shanks was among the group of people that he wanted to blast with his Railgun.

Stop with the excuses. While Kidd was charging his Railgun, Shanks
1. Saw the future
2. Charged toward Kidd
3. Attacked Kidd with Kamusari

Shanks did those 3 actions when Kidd Railgun was still charging. Kidd focusing on Shanks won't make his reaction speed better. He still cannot dodge Kamusari. Shanks moved faster than his Railgun. Shanks will still blitz Kidd and destroy him.

Reread what happen, Shank's boat was never among the targets... It didn't even set sail at that moment.

And as I said, and as you renforce my argument. Shank did all this while Kidd was focus into fodders.

I'm agree it's all Kidd's fault to be distracted by fodders in a Yonkou territory, but Kidd stupidity don't enhance Shank's power...
But at the moment Kidd didn't know he was fighting Shank, he would (at least) have use his DF against Shank's sword if it was the case.

And even if it was the case, you are arguing about a Yonkou and a fleet of allies against a SuperNova, while Big mom was alone... Strangely it's still not the same battle situation...
If Shank fight Big Mom's Crew alone and she sneak attack him (ok it's will be a difficult feat for her), I can assure you he will lost badly and in less than 10 second...

Kidd was focusing on everyone in Elbaf including Shanks. Kidd asked how many ships are there. Kidd did not just target those ships except Shanks ship. He targeted all ships therefore he asked how many ships are there for him to blast with his Railgun.

Except Kidd was not distracted. He knew Shanks was there. He specifically attacked Elbaf because he knew Shanks was there. Kidd did not notice Shanks despite knowing Shanks was there was due to his poor CoO. Shanks was just too fast for him. Kidd was distracted if Kidd target was fodders Shanks was not included but that's not the case. Kidd targeted everyone including Shanks so Kidd was not distracted when Shanks was also his Railgun target.

Kidd using his df won't help him to block Kamusari. Kamusari will still tear apart his metal because Kidd cannot coat his metal with armament.

Shanks solo Kidd and Killer alone. None of the fleet helped Shanks though.

Except Shanks never snuck attack Kidd so this comparison doesn't work. Kidd knew Shanks was there which was the reason Kidd attacked Elbaf. Shanks attacked Kidd from the front. It's not a sneak attack.

While Kidd was charging his Railgun, Shanks
1. Saw the future
2. Charged toward Kidd
3. Attacked Kidd with Kamusari

Shanks did those 3 actions when Kidd Railgun was still charging. Kidd focusing on Shanks won't make his reaction speed better. He still cannot dodge Kamusari. Shanks moved faster than his Railgun. Shanks will still blitz Kidd and destroy him.

Big Mom cannot move faster than Kidd Railgun. So it's impossible.

To sum up the last two pages I'd say - Disbelief by everyone about how weak @BlackTiger is claiming base Luffy with all his haki abilities to be and lots of walls of text saying nothing much. Not a convo worth engaging if you ask me so all I'll say is tread carefully into these waters.

Not weak just a bad match up for someone who has Future Sight and superior speed like Snakeman speed because that person with Future Sight and Snakeman speed already bodybagged Future Sight base and Gear 2 Luffy in WCI. AdvCoC won't make Future Sight base Luffy or Gear 2 Luffy attacks faster to hit that person with Future Sight and Snakeman speed. You better stop with the thinking that top tier attack like advCoC will make Future Sight base or Gear 2 Luffy beats someone with Future Sight and Snakeman speed which is far superior in speed than base or Gear 2 Luffy. That's a bad powerscaling argument.

WCI proves this wrong. Despite learning Future Sight, Luffy King Kong Gun his top tier attack was rendered useless because his opponent was too fast for him. You're forcing this narrative that base or Gear 2 Luffy with advCoC and FS can beat another Future Sight user with far superior speed (Snakeman speed someone much faster than base or Gear 2 Luffy) when WCI shows you that base or Gear 2 Luffy despite having FS and top tier attack like King Kong Gun was still rendered helpless against someone with Future Sight and superior speed like Snakeman speed. In the end only Snakeman speed and FS can beat someone with FS and Snakeman speed too.

I think you're treating every character like King who will just take advCoC from Zoro and get 1 shot like that or non FS Kaido a glorious punching bag. That's not the case. If advCoC user faces someone who has Future Sight and much better speed like Snakeman speed someone who can dodge then that advCoC user is fucked because no matter how high he boosts his ap with advCoC, his attacks won't hit him.

Basically I believe Kaido is faster than Katakuri so any speed feats from Katakuri are pointless to me now. If base Luffy with all his haki can combat hybrid Kaido competently, which Luffy did, then there is no former opponent that Luffy has faced that will have that level of speed, power, DF power, and haki. Nothing from WCI matters anymore.

Also add to that that kaido uses futuresight when fighting.

Okay some of y'all are hyping up current Base Luffy way too much. Base Luffy is NOT, I say again NOT Yonko level or even YC1 level.
Luffy still needs Gear 2 to defeat YC3+.
Im stating Base Luffy is as strong or stronger than Yonko Executives (Oven, Ulti, Page 1, WW, Sasaki). His base speed with FS is fast but I dont think he is faster than some YC3 characters in terms of combat, that is why Gear 2 speed is needed to overcome. Also, base Luffy cannot YC3 characters like Kaido could.

I.m igoniring Blacktiger now because he continues to spout nonsense, just like Moe did.

I will say this about Shanks vs Kid. Shanks did not attack a distracted Kid or that Kid was focused on the fodders or that Kid was charging up his railgun. Shanks attacked (blitzed) Kid right to his face. So this is not the equivalent of Kaido vs Oden. Shanks just happens to be that stronger and faster than Kid's reaction.
IDK how people are making stuff up when we all saw it in the manga how Shanks attacked Kid from the front with no gimmick or distraction or anything. It just proves that Kid's CoO (if he has any) sucks.
Stop trying to downplay Shanks' victory over Kid. I highly doubt Kid's magnet DF would do anything to Shanks' sword.

This does not put Shanks and BM's speed in the same category. BM doesn't have any speed feats.

How I use to rate the Yonko: WB > Kaido > BM > Shanks

Now: Old (healthy) WB >/= Kaido > Shanks > BM > Sick WB > BB.

Ur logic doesn’t make sense I’m saying that elbaf kidd>wano kidd it just slightly u took as I’m saying he so much stronger than his wano counter. Imo in most cases characters are usually stronger than their previous arc even if it’s a tiny kinda similar to a zanka boost.

u brought up how Kidd getting oneshotted by shanks=shanks can one shot big mom. I don’t get how those are the same because Kidd stall big mom for a few secs. 2. Shanks used a powerful named attack . The few secs u want to use for kidd “stalemating” big mom we don’t know if she used a them same equivalent name attack as shanks.

shanks outperforming big mom is because against Kidd was focus on destroying ships first u can clearly see In The panel. Yes he wanted shanks to come out but he didn’t expected him to catch him went he was so focus on destroying the ships that the difference.

My point there is a huge gap between yonkos and their yc1 commanders. (Maybe except shanks and been beckman because we hadn’t seen them fight yet) therefore kaido low diff katakuri. There is also no huge gap btw katakuri and the first yc1 commanders so u can’t fan wank either.

and then u brought up the speed argument I don’t get that logic Kidd isn’t as speedster but doesn’t mean he isnt stronger u know their different type of speed (travel speed,combat speed,reaction speed). By that logic are u saying that base luffy from fish men-island arc=current base luffy?

bro all yonkos are in the same tier I’m saying some might be stronger than others I also said that shanks MIGHT be stronger than the rest I never said it’s a fact so please reread what I’m saying for making those claims.

I'm talking about Kidd who stalemated Big Mom before Law came to Kidd aid with Elbaf Kidd. If powercreep does exist then non awakening Kidd who staalemated Big Mom>>>Elbaf Kidd who Shanks 1 shot which destroy the entire powercreep argument because Kidd after stalemating Big Mom later got powercreep after a death fight wth Big Mom.

"Shanks used a powerful named attack . The few secs u want to use for kidd “stalemating” big mom we don’t know if she used a them same equivalent name attack as shanks."

You know Kidd also didn't use any awakening? We have panels of Big Mom cannot blitz Railgun. We have panels of Kidd tanked multiple named attacks of Big Mom. Shanks blitzed Kidd. KIdd cannot tank Shanks Kamusari. How does that make Big Mom any better?

What makes you think non awakening Kidd stalled Big Mom for few seconds? He stalemated Big Mom until Law came to his aid? How long did it take for Law to Kidd's place? 1 minute? By the time Law arrived, Kidd was still fresh he could still stall Big Mom for a longer period of time.

Shanks outperformed Big Mom because Shanks was much faster than Big Mom Big Mom cannot blitz Kidd Shanks could. Shanks ap also>>>Big Mom not that Kidd was distracted that's a poor excuse.


While Kidd was charging his Railgun, Shanks
1. Saw the future
2. Charged toward Kidd
3. Attacked Kidd with Kamusari

Shanks did those 3 actions when Kidd Railgun was still charging. Kidd focusing on Shanks won't make his reaction speed better. He still cannot dodge Kamusari. Shanks moved faster than his Railgun. Shanks will still blitz Kidd and destroy him.

Big Mom cannot move faster than Kidd Railgun. So it's impossible.

You're so desperate at this point downplaying Shanks achievement. Where's this energy when Kaido 1 shot act 1 Luffy? Didn't you say Kaido 1 shot Luffy who beat Katakuri? You ignored that Luffy didn't use Future Sight. You ignored that act 1 Luffy was not Luffy who beat Katakuri but Luffy who got stalled by Cracker since act 1 Luffy was non FS Boundman Luffy. You ignored that Katakuri also almost 3 shot Boundman without his fastest attack (Like Thunder Bagua of Kaido) if Boundman didn't run away.

Then here you are making excuses Shanks snuck on Kidd who was focusing on fodders. Cut the crap with your hypocrisy. Kidd targeted everyone in Elbaf including Shanks. He knew Shanks was on Elbaf. If he was too late to detect Shanks despite Shanks being 1 of people Kidd targeted with his Railgun that means Shanks was too fast for him for his CoO to detect.

How does Kaido low diff Katakuri when Kaido never outperformed Katakuri when fighting Boundman while Shanks high diffs Big Mom when SHanks outperformed Big Mom fighting Kidd? That's called hypocrisy.

Just because Ryokugyu 1 shot King and Queen that does not mean all yonko 1 shot YC1. Any yonko with advCoC can 1 shot King or Marco because advCoC can bypass his Lunarian defense that does not mean any yonko can hit Katakuri with advCoC which makes the fight low diff because these yonko are not as fast as Snakeman except Kaido when Kaido copied SNakeman movement.

Not saying Kidd is a speedster but by powercreep shouldn't Elbaf Kidd be much more faster than non awakening Kidd who stalemated Big Mom?

Fishman Island and Elbaf is 5 arcs apart unlike Wano and Elbaf which is 1 arc apart so there's no powercreep. Luffy got faster slightly then since it's 5 arcs it piles up.

Wano to Elbaf is 1 arc and you think powercreep does exist so where's the powercreep Kidd got after his deathmatch with Big Mom? Why did Shanks 1 shot him?

Basically I believe Kaido is faster than Katakuri so any speed feats from Katakuri are pointless to me now. If base Luffy with all his haki can combat hybrid Kaido competently, which Luffy did, then there is no former opponent that Luffy has faced that will have that level of speed, power, DF power, and haki. Nothing from WCI matters anymore.
Unfortunately all those power ups FS, advCoC, advCoA did not make base or Gear 2 Luffy as fast as Katakuri/WCI Snakeman.

Kaido cannot be faster than Katakuri when Kaido became Snakeman punching bag. When Kaido never fought faster attacks from Snakeman like Black Mamba and King Cobra something Katakuri fought. Kaido biting Snakeman Luffy after copying Snakeman movement is no different than Katakuri dodging Jet CUlverin then hit Luffy with Buzz Cut Mochi.

There is Luffy's former opponent who can outperform Kaido fighting base Luffy since Kaido is never shown faster than Snakeman without copying Snakeman movement. Kaido who got tagged by base Luffy was non FS Kaido and Kaido who did not copy SNakeman movement so how was that Kaido faster than Katakuri? It's Kaido own fault being slow. Base Luffy treating non FS and non SNakeman Kaido like a punching bag doesn't apply to Katakuri.

Base Luffy is much slower than WCI SNakeman. Base Luffy treated Kaido like a punching bag because Kaido was not as fast as Snakeman (unless he copied SNakeman movement). So unless you think base Luffy is as fast as WCI Snakeman which is impossible because Shanks 1 shot Kidd destroys powercreep argument, base Luffy who sandbagged Kaido cannot hit Katakuri.

Also add to that that kaido uses futuresight when fighting.
Only in drunk mode. If he used FS 24/7 then he won't be hit by an attack much slower than Snakeman like this

Base Luffy was scrapping with Kaido; you're waffling if you think he needs G2 to beat Queen LMAO.

So my take in G5 and how I feel about it has finally changed. All thanks due to the anime, that did one hell of a job one that episode.

So Luffy’s Gum Gum classification is incorrect and a throwe from its true name. Nika Fruit, Mythical God of the OP universe.

G2; G3 & G4 is Luffy utilizing his skill and experience with his Rubbery Body to gain enhanced abilities. G5 is the true awakening of the fruit and it’s powers, to what we saw each time Luffy has gone G5.

Luffy in G5 is OP!! His ability is just too strong lol and exactly as the Gorosei describe the most ridiculous power in the world.

Wano has big issues that are slightly overlooked or overshadowed by the huge events of the arc. When you read the manga it seems Kaido is still kicking G5 Luffy’s ass and Luffy is doing a whole bunch of silly stuff, attacking and hanging in there…..The anime shows Kaido was overpowered by G5 abilities And Luffy’s counters but did managed to fight back before ultimately losing the final clash.

If both are fresh. G5 is dominating Kaido.

I'm talking about Kidd who stalemated Big Mom before Law came to Kidd aid with Elbaf Kidd. If powercreep does exist then non awakening Kidd who staalemated Big Mom>>>Elbaf Kidd who Shanks 1 shot which destroy the entire powercreep argument because Kidd after stalemating Big Mom later got powercreep after a death fight wth Big Mom.

"Shanks used a powerful named attack . The few secs u want to use for kidd “stalemating” big mom we don’t know if she used a them same equivalent name attack as shanks."

You know Kidd also didn't use any awakening? We have panels of Big Mom cannot blitz Railgun. We have panels of Kidd tanked multiple named attacks of Big Mom. Shanks blitzed Kidd. KIdd cannot tank Shanks Kamusari. How does that make Big Mom any better?

What makes you think non awakening Kidd stalled Big Mom for few seconds? He stalemated Big Mom until Law came to his aid? How long did it take for Law to Kidd's place? 1 minute? By the time Law arrived, Kidd was still fresh he could still stall Big Mom for a longer period of time.

Shanks outperformed Big Mom because Shanks was much faster than Big Mom Big Mom cannot blitz Kidd Shanks could. Shanks ap also>>>Big Mom not that Kidd was distracted that's a poor excuse.


While Kidd was charging his Railgun, Shanks
1. Saw the future
2. Charged toward Kidd
3. Attacked Kidd with Kamusari

Shanks did those 3 actions when Kidd Railgun was still charging. Kidd focusing on Shanks won't make his reaction speed better. He still cannot dodge Kamusari. Shanks moved faster than his Railgun. Shanks will still blitz Kidd and destroy him.

Big Mom cannot move faster than Kidd Railgun. So it's impossible.

You're so desperate at this point downplaying Shanks achievement. Where's this energy when Kaido 1 shot act 1 Luffy? Didn't you say Kaido 1 shot Luffy who beat Katakuri? You ignored that Luffy didn't use Future Sight. You ignored that act 1 Luffy was not Luffy who beat Katakuri but Luffy who got stalled by Cracker since act 1 Luffy was non FS Boundman Luffy. You ignored that Katakuri also almost 3 shot Boundman without his fastest attack (Like Thunder Bagua of Kaido) if Boundman didn't run away.

Then here you are making excuses Shanks snuck on Kidd who was focusing on fodders. Cut the crap with your hypocrisy. Kidd targeted everyone in Elbaf including Shanks. He knew Shanks was on Elbaf. If he was too late to detect Shanks despite Shanks being 1 of people Kidd targeted with his Railgun that means Shanks was too fast for him for his CoO to detect.

How does Kaido low diff Katakuri when Kaido never outperformed Katakuri when fighting Boundman while Shanks high diffs Big Mom when SHanks outperformed Big Mom fighting Kidd? That's called hypocrisy.

Just because Ryokugyu 1 shot King and Queen that does not mean all yonko 1 shot YC1. Any yonko with advCoC can 1 shot King or Marco because advCoC can bypass his Lunarian defense that does not mean any yonko can hit Katakuri with advCoC which makes the fight low diff because these yonko are not as fast as Snakeman except Kaido when Kaido copied SNakeman movement.

Not saying Kidd is a speedster but by powercreep shouldn't Elbaf Kidd be much more faster than non awakening Kidd who stalemated Big Mom?

Fishman Island and Elbaf is 5 arcs apart unlike Wano and Elbaf which is 1 arc apart so there's no powercreep. Luffy got faster slightly then since it's 5 arcs it piles up.

Wano to Elbaf is 1 arc and you think powercreep does exist so where's the powercreep Kidd got after his deathmatch with Big Mom? Why did Shanks 1 shot him?
Again I’m saying that elbaf Kidd is slightly stronger than rooftop Kidd that’s my point. It isn’t a huge gap I don’t know why it’s hard for u to understand that. I’m saying I beleive in the “ur stronger than the previous arc” logic. U want to pick specific moments to say “no that’s not true” I don’t get that point. That’s like saying well egghead luffy isn’t stronger than rooftop gear 5th luffy because he was able to defeat kaido in gear 5th compare to luffy that defeat lucci

Again ur jumping around. especially u keep using an off screen “stalemate” fight with Kidd and big mom as justification. kidd stalemating big mom sounds like ur saying Kidd and BM are somewhat equals I just told u big mom isn’t a speedster that isn’t her forte. Again what is the argument even about anyways? kidd isn’t yonko lvl so why is this specific feat matter that much?

Kidd vs big mom was like a few secs at max it wasn’t too long that law came to assisted him.

I reread the shanks vs Kidd fight u right kidd did see shanks coming to attack him his reaction speed was to slow that’s all. Big mom combat speed is just slower than shanks. I’m saying that the “stalemate” example was off screen we don’t know what happened.

Rooftop FS luffy barely dodge kaido thunder bugua. Act 1 luffy would still get clapped even with FS. Kaido>Rooftop luffy>act 1 luffy>=wci luffy>=katakuri. (I believe in the ur stronger than ur previous arc logic even if it a little) My guy luffy trained bro. Kaido even said he different from before. Base luffy was able to keep up hybrid kaido at times too so because katakuri can demolish base luffy (iirc correctly I think he did too at time could be wrong) but hybrid kaido couldn’t at times u don’t think kaido can’t low diff katakuri?
assuming katauri is the strongest yc1 there isn’t a huge gap between the rest of them he would have a high difficulty to beat any of them. while kaido wouldn’t. Yonkos and yc1 are all on different levels simple. Like are u saying katakuri is close to BM lvl?

No because I said elbaf kidd is not that much stronger than the version “stalemate kidd vs bm” or wano in general that the difference.

bruh wano luffy and wci luffy are2 different people it doesn’t matter if it’s 1 arc that’s the point powercreep till exist small or huge gap

Again

We saw onscreen how Big Mom cannot blitz Railgun while Shanks could. We saw onscreen how Kidd tanked Big Mom attacks while he cannot tank Shanks attacks.

Rooftop FS luffy barely dodge kaido thunder bugua. Act 1 luffy would still get clapped even with FS. Kaido>Rooftop luffy>act 1 luffy>=wci luffy>=katakuri. (I believe in the ur stronger than ur previous arc logic even if it a little) My guy luffy trained bro. Kaido even said he different from before.
Katakuri is much faster than base Luffy who barely dodged Thunder Bagua on rooftop so I don't see how base Luffy barely dodging Thunder Bagua means Katakuri cannot dodge Thunder Bagua too when Katakuri is much faster than base Luffy.

act 1 luffy>=wci luffy>=katakuri. (I believe in the ur stronger than ur previous arc logic even if it a little)
WCI Snakeman Luffy=Katakuri>>>act 1 Luffy. This is act 1 Luffy


Act 1 Luffy was non FS Boundman Luffy.

Also why didn't you use this energy for Shanks and Big Mom?

Shanks>>>>Kidd and Killer
Big Mom=Kidd and Law

Yet you had the nerve to put Shanks on Big Mom tier.

My guy luffy trained bro. Kaido even said he different from before.
He only got ap boost not speed boost. If you think Luffy got speed boost, you agree that Kidd got much faster after had a death match with Big Mom which Shanks debunked by 1 shot him.

Kaido even said he different from before. Base luffy was able to keep up hybrid kaido at times too so because katakuri can demolish base luffy
Luffy was different because he could damage Kaido. Not because Luffy got faster. What different from Luffy was his ap not his speed.

Kaido also rarely used Thunder Bagua. Base Luffy was keeping up with nameless attacks Kaido. When Kaido used Thunder Bagua, he bliitzed Luffy again chapter 1042.

so because katakuri can demolish base luffy (iirc correctly I think he did too at time could be wrong) but hybrid kaido couldn’t at times u don’t think kaido can’t low diff katakuri?
Yes pretty much. We won't ignore kits of characters just because Kaido performed pathetically against base Luffy. Kaido got sandbagged by base Luffy because he did not use Future Sight and much slower than Snakeman. Why would that happen to Katakuri when Katakuri is not a big oaf like Kaido? Do you think just because Jinbe dodged Big Mom Prometheus that means Jinbe can dodge Snakeman attacks?

What do you think? Because base Luffy hit Kaido hurting him that much with advCoC you think base Luffy was magically as fast as WCI Snakeman and can hit Katakuri with advCoC too to make an argument that base advCoC Luffy will sandbag Katakuri too? Ignoring how base Luffy with Future Sight still cannot hit Katakuri and got dogwalked by him?

assuming katauri is the strongest yc1 there isn’t a huge gap between the rest of them he would have a high difficulty to beat any of them. while kaido wouldn’t. Yonkos and yc1 are all on different levels simple. Like are u saying katakuri is close to BM lvl?
Does Big Mom have FUture Sight? is she as fast as Snakeman? If she isn't the only way for her to beat Katakuri is by outlasting Katakuri haki. Didn't chapter 1042 teach you that Kaido who is on Big Mom tier was helpless against Snakeman that scales to Katakuri in speed?

No because I said elbaf kidd is not that much stronger than the version “stalemate kidd vs bm” or wano in general that the difference.
Then post Udon Luffy is not that much faster than current Luffy. Snakeman Luffy blitzing non FS Kaido proved Kaido without FS needs an extreme effort to beat Katakuri who scales to Snakeman in speed.

bruh wano luffy and wci luffy are2 different people it doesn’t matter if it’s 1 arc that’s the point powercreep till exist small or huge gap
1 arc does matter a lot. There's no character who gets much faster after 1 arc. I don't see people claiming that Punk Hazard Luffy was much faster than Fishman Island Luffy or WCI Luffy was much faster than Dressrosa Luffy. WCI to post Udon Luffy is the only exception you want Luffy after Udon to be much faster than WCI Luffy because you don't want to give Wano Snakeman Luffy feat blitzing Kaido to Katakuri so you made your own rules to make the speed gap between WCI Snakeman and Wano Snakeman very big so you can keep downplaying Katakuri as low diff material for Kaido.

If Kidd did not get much faster, Luffy did not get much faster. Stop nitpicking which one got much faster to suit your agenda.
