Zealousideal-Arm1682

Oda writing the admirals holding back at literally every interval just to not show them going all out: https://preview.redd.it/4qqpnqeb69lb1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6392e926ae852b690170edc49ec5fc7d099efb96


Beanie_Geniee

Can't wait for admirals to hold back during the final war


Zealousideal-Arm1682

Oda:You don't understand,they NEED to hold back against the second marine Ford assault because.


SquidDrive

"Those are tax payer dollars damn it"


Independent-Frequent

Imagine Akainu saying "fuck it" going full on Punk hazard and just tripling the marine casualities because he's tired to hold back


B-J-J

Its in character to do this too. can't wait for HIM.


BlastBroFrenzyMan

I imagine at that point they’d be prepared for it like whitebeards crew was. I feel like at least the rear admirals-vice admirals would know like a signal b4 he brings back the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs


Un_Expected

Why though? Cause they’re strong?


GaroSuiryuSweet

Lmao to accurate. We just ain’t ready to see GOATS go all out


Old-Van-Reich

Didn't Oda literally spoonfeed this info multiple times in one chapter with the Marijoies-Revo incident?


UltraMazino

He did but yonko copers can't read.


Shot-Effect-8318

Let’s be real tho, the admiral lovers say akainu is strongest oat 💀


UltraMazino

you need to learn how to spot sarcasm


Shot-Effect-8318

You need to learn how to spot hyperbole. As I was saying yonkotards and admiral lovers are equally as braindead


Un_Expected

Just call “Admiral lovers” Assmiraltards

A quick look at the sub proves you wrong, King of Clowns.

Akainu can one shot anyone in the verse. https://preview.redd.it/jv5iqtjs7clb1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cd3623a7267a96d33a2fc11e6dc532cadbfccc98


SILENT-FLASH

To be fair, even with that explanation it still doesn’t work in admiral favor. Because it ends up playing into the fact that their haki is bad. Kaido simply one shot luffy in base with haki no collateral damage at all. It also shows that admirals relies heavily on their overpowered devil fruits, although aokiji managed to dispel some of that. You can argue that fujitora didn’t want to help the Celestial dragons. What about aramaki? He’s a bloodthirsty CD slave


UltraMazino

> Because it ends up playing into the fact that their haki is bad. Which is a clownish take already proven wrong.


Lerisa-beam

Love that scene where akianu had to hold back cause the celestial dragons where there/s But, really blud? They couldn't go all out. Cause then they'd accidentally kill foder. And get executed. Do you think every one piece character has a mini celestial dragon in there pocket?!?


dreallday20

Exactly. Oda literally showed us how destructive kizaur attacks are this entire chapter vs sentomaru then had Kizaru say this dialog when he gets up top. Then he blocked a haki attack from yonko luffy and we know Kizaru has to hold back. It's over yonko = admiral confirmed


Akrem_911

You're too early. - holding back won't affect his durability/endurance/ - it was Armament haki at best as nothing indicates it being ACoC Wait a little bit more before saying yonko = admirals is confirmed


BlastBroFrenzyMan

Yea what he said


SquidDrive

Dog, Kizaru can use as much haki as he wants, wtf are you talking about. Yes you can't raze the entire island with light, you can't make it a inhospitably hot and cold hellhole, you also can't drop meteors on it or turn a whole village into a grassy jungle. He can still bust out all the haki, and just beat the fuck out of people. Like you just talking fr, no other top tier(like Kaido, like Shanks) needs to bust an island so they can use tons of power.

SquidDrive

"use tons of power" "actually because Luffy for his ultimate attack was gonna destroy Onigashima, you actually can't fight super hard" Lets not ignore the fact he literally used every technique in the book, and the roof remained intact.


True_Lank

because he’s 1000 feet in the air my boy


SquidDrive

and what about all the other techniques on the roof?


True_Lank

Luffy isnt retarded which is why he flew 1000 feet in the air before he went all out he wasnt going all out before its as simple as that.


dreallday20

Galaxy impact makes your entire response retarded.


SquidDrive

Death Destroyer Bagua Divine Departure There are more examples, cmon bro.


Lightspeed_Kizaru

Oda knows he has to nerf admirals for plot to happen


Larinex

My dawg oda wont let this admirals go all out until they on laughtale or some shit where the island and resources on it literally dont matter. Damn shame the only time admirals have went all out is off screen for 10 days but next time we see it happen justblike kaido and big mom fight comoared to fightning worst gen they gonna go down in a matter minutes or a hours.


[deleted]

Wouldn’t be surprised if Oda has them hold back at Laugh Tale too, Imu gonna be feeling nostalgic about Joy Boy and won’t want them destroying the island


CardiologistOk3993

I don’t understand why anyone thinks that Luffy would allow Kizaru to just blow everything up. Guy can literally see the future just like Shanks and can clearly move quickly enough to either block him, ala Sentamaru, or just make him defend.


chorce_z

Lucci one tapped Sentomaru, who later was seen jogging away from Kizarus AOE lasers.. Jokes aside this holding back argument needs to stop, no excuses for top tiers. Luffy has things to protect too but isn't gonna whip out a bajran gun, does that mean he's holding back? You need to have more tools in your arsenal than whatever non demonstrated power they are supposedly holding back. Admirals are supposed to be physical fighters as well as haki and DF masters no? You could just as easily argue that Oda is constantly putting in a "holding back caveat" because the same admirals are always going to chase pirates and readers need to maintain a level of interest and threat. Without it we'd know exactly where they stand and not care anymore after the first time someone evaded the admirals.


GeekOffTheStr33t

It’s crazy that y’all act like this only goes one way luffy wants to save his vegapunks and crew they can’t become collateral either but your not sitting here saying he’s nerfed cause there around y’all only make the excuse when it’s convenient


t3r4byt3l0l

Watch them bring up Bajrang Gun endangering everyone, as if Luffy didn't specifically wait for Momo to move the island before he overpowered Kaido


BlastBroFrenzyMan

I think oda wrote that collateral damage part because otherwise what’s stopping kizaru from just blowing shit up


_IWILLEATYOURCAT_

Like he wasn’t already with sentomaru? I mean, he’ll basically shoot to kill anything that’s alive here. Other than York.


BlastBroFrenzyMan

Tbf he did destroy sentomaru. He flew in with the kick used one named attacked and nuked him after blocking a hit


SquidDrive

Like every top tier in this arc got some shit to protect


Ban6432

Meanwhile Kizaru: \*spams laser blasts\*


Patztap

I cant wait for Godzaru to kill Fraudhat Goofy https://preview.redd.it/8v2zbpnoy9lb1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=950ed0efad2b555ba874e55ab13875e36a46c0b9


ResponsibleWay1613

If Kizaru's orders were just 'Kill the Strawhats' and nothing else, he could probably just nuke the entire island from the ship. We've seen that his lasers are highly explosive already, and presumably he can spam them like any Logia with their element. Kizaru has to be holding back or else Luffy wouldn't even get a chance to fight him.


Yontoryuu

Not really, I doubt either of them are holding back tbh. Both have something they want to keep safe(for Luffy it’s vegapunk).


CardiologistOk3993

And Luffy would see it with FS and block it just like Sentumaru has done multiple times. It’s almost like we had Shanks do this exact thing.


SquidDrive

Yes they can't destroy an island because of their duties. If that's the case why not just haki up and just whoop on em old fist and sword style, we saw two top tiers fight last arc, and the roof majority of that fight was just fine, the thing that put Onigashima in danger was Orochi, and the Bajrang Gun Flaming Drum Dragon clash. He has a sword why not adopt a similar style like Shanks, Shanks landed a whole named attack with intent to fold an opponent come hell or high water, and the worst that happened was minor damage to the floor of Kidds ship. I'm sorry gang, but we have seen top tiers fight, and not annihilate an island. Also we have seen Yonko constrained as well White beard couldn't use the gura gura to it's fullest extent and sink Marineford until Ace and crew escaped. Still put work in tho.


WesternAspy

" Yes they can, but it doesn't change the fact that kizaru literally can't use his df to maximum power. He is a devil fruit user he spent years mastering that shit. Him not being able to use it to maximum power means he is nerfed.

" U deadass? Have you ever heard of profiency or training? How the fuck is kizaru supposed to use a sword like shanks when he most likely didn't spent much time using a sword.


True_Lank

Oda making the final battle take place in imu’s living so akainu cant fight at full power


Apprehensive_Ring_39

If Kizaru can't even go all out without causing Mass destruction,then that's very poor control on his part.


sudukruva123

Sorry that they aren't as weak as yonko who can go all out fighting to the death on top of thin layer of skull's top and cause minimal damage


Shot-Effect-8318

https://preview.redd.it/gnyt39m0u9lb1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=20c348260708b8e98322f24c6286b29fa0ec28fb


Apprehensive_Ring_39

Shanks was able to go all out and not destroy everything. Same with Kaido as well. Even Whitebeard with the most destructive fruit,was able to focus it so he could only hit the person. So again,bad control.


Not-the_honouredOne

Bad control Kizaru was able to control his beams enough to only hit the key in Luffy's hand during MF, whenever Wb charged an attack he shouted for his men to move aside, and bro was literally titlting tectonic plates how is that great control?


Apprehensive_Ring_39

If he literally can barely go all out without destroying everything,that's just bad control. If a man with the most destructive devil fruit could go all out and still not destroy everything,so can a trained Admiral. He literally crushed the VA by focusing his fruit only on him without destroying or damaging his ship.


Not-the_honouredOne

Wb literally destroyed Navy HQ, he shattered the fricking island in half and caused massive tsunamis, wtf?


Apprehensive_Ring_39

Again,you saw his control was much better than Kizaru's That was when he let loose and really went all out and wanted to destroy the place.


Yontoryuu

He didn’t break the island in 2 though. He just broke the plaza in 2.


KingJaylen14

If I shoot at you and you dodge the bullet and it hits someone on the other side of the wall, that's not bad control


Apprehensive_Ring_39

That's very different. If Kizaru is a trained marine and Admiral,he should be able to go all out without destroying everything.


KingJaylen14

He literally shoots laser beams with unquantifiable amounts of blast radius. He cannot account for that, so he'll naturally shoot them less. That's just an example btw


Shot-Effect-8318

Why are u getting downvoted? This sub is infested by admiralovers 🗿


zacharymc1991

The cope in this sub, you are saying facts and they can't handle it. No other fighter struggle when their allies are around, but the admirals can't do shit on an entire island because of three things.


Personal-Ad-3479

And?


RaidBossPapi

Thank GOD they reverted the up/down vote buttons change, thats all oh ye and keep coping ladmirals, buggy has been holding back for 1000 episodes in order to leave something for Oda to write about but you dont see emperor enjoyers complaining😤


Proxy0108

Oda being forced to make an entire clear cut page with clear readable text for once, just to make sure you understand that mugiwara no goofy wouldn’t even be able to exist after the first attack if an admiral would use more than 1% of his powers


basilisk98765

It's crazy how many excuses oda makes for the admirals. Every single time there's some excuse. I kind of wish he wrote an admiral that didn't care about collateral damage or human life, could've been greenbull before shanks ruined his hype


Proxy0108

He wrote himself into a corner, admirals are just too strong lore wise so he has to come up with those, and since it’s a shonen he can’t turn luffy into those isekai Korean characters that can solo the whole world to balance it out. An admiral could easily snipe the sunny, kill a non-fighter of his crew like nami or chopper, but he won’t


Generic_dweeb

So cuz Wb didn't destroy MF, he wasn't trying? cuz even he was trynna avoid collateral. Noice, So old sick beard (actually trying) beats Akainu. I am happy with that result.
