[ID: The “Trust no one, not even yourself” meme, redrawn on a sticky note in pen. Vegapunk is on the left, facing forward and sweating slightly, and York is behind him with a sinister smile, her tongue sticking out of the corner of her mouth as she points a gun at his head. End ID.]
I love that they stuck with the scientist stereotype of "the greed for power will be the downfall of any man of science" like Vegapunk (Stella) split his brain up into multiple bodies and the vegapunk we were suspecting the most of corruption was Lilith and the storyline doesn't mock us by giving us a random new villain but the most obvious vegapunk that leaves us both going "Of course holy shit" and "No wayyy"
First Off let let’s look at the difference in reaction to S Bear taking a combined attack from g4 luffy and hybrid Lucci. Vs a single attack from Zues. The reactions are not the same. There’s a clear difference. Nami x Zues did damage with flame on. ⤵️
Mind you. Kong Gun is the same attack that sent Doffy flying across the Dressrosa and that was pre-wano luffy. Six King Gun is confirmed internal destruction. No way those attacks are weaker than zues. It’s the heat output by electricity that counters the flame on their back
Have you ever wondered why a flame is the representation of them at their most durable? or why Lunarians can conjure flame? How did other lunarians fight each other? It must’ve been who has the hottest flame. Either way fire has to be the key here to counter their durability. ⤵️
Another key that their weakness is heat output is Frank’s lasers. Edison told S Shark to dodge which almost certainly confirms he would get damaged flames on or off. ⤵️
Which also begs the question. How did the Lunarians get wiped out with their durability hax. Well… if the weapon that Imu used is heat/laser powered… then we have our answer. ⤵️
Don’t even get me started with what might happen if he gets hit with an Ifrit Jambè. Blue fire is definitely hotter than the red fire on their back. + lightning. It’s a wrap. ⤵️
In conclusion the flame on their back is an indication that heat is the key to their durability. Reverse engineer that and heat might be their downfall. 🔥 on or off. Sanji is about to body bag all the Seraphim. 🎬
