Discussion The Gecko Moria thread

[Impel Down]

Couldn't he just use his giant strength to fight as well? He could be like Bon Clay or Brook and not actually use his DF for fighting.

 

[gao_dargon]

thats what i thugt at first too, but the shadows thing sound so cool o(^-^)o,but aye i think he wont use it for fighting

Well Brookes DF isnt really a combat one it just resurrected him when he died and Bon Clay's could be used in combat as we saw in his fight with Sanji to distract people or confuse them i think it depends on the person and how they use there particular ability.

But back on topic the reason i think that he will be able to damage peoples body's by attacking there shadows now we know that he can touch shadows by the fact that when he cut luffys shadow off he was able to grasp it in his hand for we shall say 20 minutes while he took it down to Oz's chamber and luffys shadow did look like it was distressed. So im thinking that being able to touch shadows also means that he is able to harm shadows and if that is attached to a charcters real body then it will also harm them.

 

[gao_dargon]

hahahahahah kage bunshin hahaha, =D like the evil link from ocarina? that would be cool,and they have to fight anotherone shadow cuz its to hard to beat your own hu?,like sanji fighting zoro shadow and viceversa? that would be rad (an also a great afterlaugh cuz each one would be like "i kiked your ass")

but then what to do with the allready shadowless SH??

 

[Paz42]

hmmm that is true what to do with the already shadow less i suppose he might be a pretty good fighter to start with just really really lazy or he could be ridiculously fast just slow normaly unless alarmed or in danger like real gecko

 

[gao_dargon]

about that, what does Moria has to do with a geko?,Crocodail had his vest like a real crocodail skin,Don has his feathers,Kuma has his ears but wha does Moria has?

 

[Impel Down]

^Croc has the smile too, just saying


Yeah, I've asked what Moria has to do with a gecko before too. Maybe it's just his shape is like a gecko? Or it's his tongue? Either that, or the real gecko-looking Moria is inside the giant costume.

 

[gao_dargon]

u know what, ur probaly right but maybe its not a costume,maybe his body was damaged by something and Hogback helped him, or thats like a zombie and he implanted his own shadow and the real moria is hiding somewhere

 

[Impel Down]

Or it's just to make him more threatening. But, the theory that that is just a zombie has been shot down before. DF powers don't move with the shadow, and if he wants to conquer the New World, then he'd have to go out in sunlight, wouldn't he?

 

[gao_dargon]

no, his ship has a very big roof hahaha but the power thing is true as Oz cant streach,then maby he can climb walls? cuz to be true i dont see anything of a geko in him,not even the eyes

 

[Impel Down]

maybe the real Moria can use his own shadow to control the giant Moria body like a puppet, you know, like Shikamaru? So, he hides in some control room, with his shadow secretly wrapped around the body, spreading his "energy" all over it, so he can cut shadows.

 

[gao_dargon]

aye.that can be,does gekos have any particular ability besides clambing walls maby thats the key to morias fighting style or other thing like that

 

[Impel Down]

Well, all the Shichibukai have been related physically, not based on their styles. Although, their personalities all match their animals so far. But, I don't see how Moria is gecko-like. Is it some japanese saying or something that has to do with geckos?

 

[weixiaobao]

a gecko willing to lose it tail to survive .. so i guess Moria probably will to sacrifice all his folowers if he had to..

 

[Impel Down]

But a gecko can grow back its tail...and Moria can get more zombies! I see where you're going with this, Wei!

 

[gao_dargon]

does geckos has that ability too, i didnt know if they did, i was going to say somethin like maby he can loose limbs (and Hogback can re-atach them) but i was not sure geckos cloud do that,cuz i know some lizards can,but i was not sure about them,but aye that was my theroy,not the zombies thing (wich is more resonable than mine)

 

[Impel Down]

Still, there's nothing appearence-related between him and geckos, which is usually the main thing. So far, it's mainly ability that relates him somewhat to geckos, and that doesn't apply to any of the other shichibukai.

 

[Paz42]

ok so im accutaly thinking now that seeing as Oz hasnt really done much in the way of being hostile im thinking luffy is going to end up wiping the floor with moria as hes a pussy and then hes going to do some kinda teqnique to transfer his own shadow personalty and abilities into oz's body

this also got me thinking that he has left his orginal body but its a list ditch technique that tires him out leaves him vunerable but if he was to transfer into Oz then he would be pretty much unable to be harmed with his huge body and could easily fend of luffy although this is all just speculation

 

[Absolutio]

Moria aint a "pussy", he's a shichibukai, thus he's strong. don't underestemate him.
Also his body IS the original body, coz DF powers apperently don't transffer with the shadows.

 

[Impel Down]

Well, Absulutio, there IS my theory that he can use his shadow to control a dead body, so his powers would trasffer, but that's not why I'm posting during my vacation.

So, in the latest chapter, 461, when Luffy showed up next to Moria, it seemed like Moria was giant sized again. I dunno, maybe it's just me.
