#ONEPIECE1045
Okay, wow, this was definitely one of the funniest one piece chapters I've ever read. I felt like I was reading a cartoon network-y, Tom and Jerry esque type fight but in the best way possible.
The chapter title is called Next Level -
which is very fitting, because at this point there is just no one on Luffy's level. He's really unmatched.
Like he's just having fun,
- and yes, like we all assumed (correctly), he can make all of his surroundings rubber as part of his awakening. BUT, not only can he make every surface and object rubbery, he can also make Kaido himself stretch like rubber!!
Kaido literally swallowed Luffy whole and he ended up
blowing up into a ballon inside of Kaido, making Kaido's body stretch like rubber
AND HE ESCAPED FROM INSIDE OF KAIDO THROUGH HIS EYEBALL??? LIKE WHAT KIND OF FIGHT IS THIS
and it's just... so good to see how fun he's having
AND THEN WE GET THIS CRAZY ASS PANEL???
and my personal favorite moment of this fight-
LUFFY PLAYING JUMP ROPE WITH KAIDO??? LIKE ARE YOU KIDDING ME THIS IS THE BEST
and you can just see that Oda himself is having so much fun because i mean
he's just having the time of his life drawing all of these expressions, and all of this it's jsut so. fun!! like this is luffy's fruit awakening in it's perfect state, the hito hito no mi model nika is all about bringing joy into people's hearts and tell me one person who wasn't reading this with just the biggest grin on their faces
and then of course.
because oda is oda.
this can't all be fun and games!!
and i understand... the way he drew this was funny, like the way luffy went from gear 5 to this old wrinkly sight but the implications of this? just made me go from having the biggest grin on my face to really damned sad
"this is taking a lot out of me" like all of his gears, and all of his powerups, luffy is slowly killing himself quicker and quicker and gear 5 is LITERALLY SUCKING HIS LIFE OUT. He's giving it his ALL, his heart literally stopped and he GOT IT BACK UP FOR THIS, he's sacrificing so much of his life just to beat kaido
He literally had to bang his hands on the ground to get his heartbeat back up -
going gear second stance, to get back into his gear 5 and saying
Do you really think after all of this, something like death can scare me? Come on heartbeat, get loud again.
He is literally trying to get his heart back up, the music starts sounding again (Doom Dut Da Da) and he's back.
(and yes I had to combine all of the panels cus there's so many i loved i needed to add but stupid tumblr has a 10 pic limit)
FIRST OF ALL LIKE LOOK AT THE FIRST FOUR PCITURES, THIS IS LIKE TOM AND JERRY OR SOMETHING AND I LOVE IT
LIKE IT'S JUST SO FUN, I CANT WAIT FOR IT TO BE ANIMTED
and then Luffy punches through Kaido, or more correctly he makes Kaido's face rubber, and then punches him and stretches out his face !!
and then ofc we get that end panel, god he's just so cool
no break nest week i dont think!!!
what did you think of the fight?
