He isn't acknowledging Luffy, more like he is concerned about his allies, basically the only reason Luffy and Buggy became emperor is because they have a large crew. Luffy only considers his own crew to be his crew but it doesnt change the fact he has the Grand Fleet backing him whilst Buggy has the prisoners and two warlords. This is why Law and Kid didn't become a Yonko, they lack a large crew/fleet.
It's funny how the Cp0 legally can't fight Luffy without permission because he is an emperor but Lucci is like "I didn't vote for him, he is not my emperor"
Lucci is an agenda piece hype man for "kaido and big mom are still alive" theories. in his cp0 cubicle "Kidd, Law, and ESPECIALLY Luffy are all frauds. Kaido and Big mom are still alive underwater and they're going to win the fight. It's not over."
Luffy are too weak without gear 5 form, and he lost too much energy when using gear 4 and 5. Luffy's stamina are so bad, that's not good as he has already crown as an emperor
Kizaru should be fighting a Looney Tune, as his punishment, I mean what has he been upto for the past two years, He gets paid shit tons of cash, but he practically did nothing, He was probably chilling in his Ship for the past two years.
Akainu isn't afraid of the Strawhats as a crew. He is afraid of how big a complication it would be to mess up with an Emperor crew. He did say that a simple skirmish can lead to an all out war, and with Luffy's 5600 men Grand Fleet waiting for his call, and the territories under his name, Akainu is smart enough to try to avoid war as much as possible. He might be antagonistic to all pirates, but he has strong belief in justice.
True that, Akainu's not a fool, remember when he tricked Squard into betraying Whitebeard just to weaken and confuse Whitebeard's forces? The man doesn't want to blindly go fight a war, he wants to WIN the war.
He’s 100% afraid of the straw hats as a crew because anyone with a brain would be and he’s one of the smarter characters in the show, he saw Luffy’s potential and understands how much of a threat they are
@@RunD.Ones1s nah definitely not. The man got guts to kill Ace in front of Garp. He went out to fight Whitebeard and his crew during the Marineford War, and you mean to tell me he is more scared of a 19yo pirate than a legendary pirate who was dubbed as the strongest man at that time. As a commander, there are things that you have to consider before starting a fight. Avoiding unnecessary war doesnt tantamount being scared. He was only avoiding the fight since there was no real reason yet to fight the strawhats, unlike Lucci who has personal reason to fight them, and Gorosei, who was merely after Vegapunk's head.

Dude thats what i was thinking when i first saw this. Seeing luffy who was just a boy from the east blue to being one of the four emperors. It makes me feel proud at how far luffy has come
Um idk maybe not all I know is he is pretty reserved when it comes to fighting really dangerous ones you see how akaniu doesn't want Lucci to fight luffy cuz he has someone else in his plan to fight him . Cuz if he fucks up it will be worse then imperial down since the elders now know his joyboy and have strated to take action
akainu has never been and will never be a fool. that's something you gotta respect about him. he knows luffy isn't some old whitebeard who can barely use haki these days without dying. a fight against a younger, more active and energetic yonko is going to make marineford look like a small skirmish. akainu doesn't want to fight. he wants to win.
I love how ever since becoming Fleet Admiral, all we ever see from Sakazuki is him having to deal with shit like this. Dude probably aged 20 years since he was promoted. Sengoku is probably sitting in a corner somewhere, munching his snacks and laughing his ass off at the fact that he doesn't have to do this shitty job anymore.
Sengoku LITERALLY aged 20 years after resigning, he went from looking in his 40s to his 70s real quick, all that stress finally being unloaded after decades of service.
I love the fact that Luffy is finally regarded as a big player. Kinda sad to lose the underdog aura that made us love him in the first place, but it was time our boy grew out of those clothes! ❤
@@Barri2410Going against luffy meaning going against his allies accros the new world. back when he'a rookie he's the champ of all the underdogs but mostly just him and his crew.
can't stay an underdog forever cause when you keep winning, no one can look down on you anymore. he beat kaido 1v1, something only the best in the world had ever done. he was also the only one to finish the job.
@@Thecorai nah, it was 1v1. everyone else was out of that fight before kaido even started trying. big mom was also still up there when all the other people were, too.
@@theghostofthomasjenkins9643to be fair kaido was fighting the entire night with no rest so he probably was withered out by the time of gear 5. But I still think Luffy is yonko level, just not full kaido level yet
Akainu now truly feels like he understands the weight behind the title "Fleet Admiral". When he was just a Admiral, he seemed more like a weapon for carrying out his values. Now, he seems like the ultimate commander-in-chief who understands that he has his job to fulfill while also managing what the higher-ups want from him.
Tbh I kinda wished Lucci did much better. Just that Lucci was the only person to nearly kill luffy with straight hands and skill and I wished he was a actual rival
Luffy isn't just an emperor but the youngest one ever.. all those One piece legends were literally nobodies when they were Luffy's age.. but my man here already fought through a major war, triggered and won a few civil wars, gathered allies with many kingdoms and races, has his own fleet even though he doesn't acknowledge it.. all the while all he had to do to stand out was tell people his granddad is a marine hero or that his dad is the government's no.1 enemy..
I wouldn't really say nobodies. Whitebeard's backstory was limited of what we know. Marshall D. Teach was already has a big name under Whitebeard's fleet, while Shanks not only was the member of the Roger Pirates, but also already established a crew before he even met Luffy. And since back then Shanks was already known as a pirate, he definetly wasn't. Both Big Mom and Kaido were members of the Rocks Pirates, who were famous of colliding with Roger and Garp in their prime. And Buggy... he was already famous as the warlord. Luffy after all wasn't also a nobody before being a Yonko, yet his journey as the liberator of Kingdoms and the one who declared war on WG, he was already a big name before even learning Haki. Of course Luffy being the youngest ever Yonko is impressive, but calling them nobodies would the same thing as saying Julius Caeser was a nobody, before he became the first emperor.
i really question lucci's intelligence at this point. no matter if you think it was trickery or he simply got lucky, luffy walked into a fight with kaido of all people and kaido didn't walk out. at that point, luffy is the smartest guy on earth, the strongest, or the luckiest. you don't want to tangle with that, lol.
This title is all wrong, Akainu doesn’t fear luffy, he fears the paperwork that comes out of an all out war with Luffy and ALL of his friends and crew 😂
To fight Luffy is to fight a few of the strongest superpowers in the world. Rayleigh and the Amazons is nuisance enough. Add in the grand fleet and his old friends like Alabasta and Dressrosa, and the fishmen, you got yourself a full-blown war.
Love that Luffy is just a damn looney tune now like he was always kinda goofy but now his powers really reflect it. He hits gear 5 like Popeye hits a can of spinach
Akainu : Where's kizaru? Soldier : Already on his way to egghead island Akainu : And where is greenbull? Soldier : Follow kizaru sir Akainu : and where is fujitora? Soldier : stanby as back up plan. Akainu : then who's defending navy base? Soldier : you sir Akainu : that's it. Im going too
It's funny how not to long ago people were calling him and his crew "rookie pirates". Even tho luffy has been running circles around these big named pirates. Whole Cake Island being a prime example where he defeated two sweet generals, stole a road glyph, smashed a priceless picture, added jimbe to the crew and essentially made a fool of a yonko.
@@HeWhoPwnsNoobs I think I'd seen people say it's shorter, but going from when we saw a full moon we can tell for sure that the difference in time from end of whole cake to end of wano was one moon cycle
Marine ain't afraid of the war against SHs but the possible backup that might show up. Going up against SHs fleet, RA, Rayleigh, Garp etc isn't gonna be easy compared to WBs fleet.
WB was only easy because they cheated as well was old,sick had a traitor kill one of their top members and captured another as a hostage so could not go all out had to have another ally turn traitor to injure whitebeard to weaken him even more when sick and old stopping him using kings haki for not being able to focus then had pirate allies as well so not just fight against wg/marines
@@richardadu6799 im pretty sure kizaru was conflicted fighting in egghead thats why he got stopped, and lucci was just a nuisance at most. outclassed. kuzan and garp fought if you recall. admirals are close to emperor strength and luffy is just a new emperor.
@@alwaysturnonaircon I think a point here is that: the original three admirals are probably closer to the Yonko in strength. The newer admirals are probably weaker.
This is definitely a new pace for Luffy. Before, the Marines would pounce on him without a 2nd thought and with everything they have on hand. But now that he’s officially a Yonko, they can’t lay a finger on him without upper brass approval
Akainu has NEVER ever underrestimated Luffy's power since Marineford. He's always aknowledged Luffy's influence amongst the others and his capability of making allies. Say whatever you want about Akainu, but he's one the most consistent marines Admiral so far.
@@2728033 the sun is hotter than lava but i know. i'd like to say that luffy stands a chance, but we're talking about an admiral who fought for ten days and completely changed half of punk hazard. we'll find out soon
One must imagine Smoker and Akainu genuinely tweaking at the thought of how this child, who they knew was going to be a threat, who they took with complete seriousness from the beginning since they met them, has been dealt with using ineffective solutions by the navy and essentially allowed to escape until he flourished, and has now not only become a yonko, but has turned an admiral and an elder into pancakes, caused all 5 elders to appear at the island for battle, escaped while all the elders got sent back home and every marine on the island was knocked tf out, heavily injured and defeated the aforementioned admiral Kizaru, as well as the members of CP0, and are now traveling with the genius, motherf*cking Vegapunk (Lilith)
Being Fleet Admiral is not like what Sakazuki imagined, I bet sometimes he asks himself why he wanted the job, everything is being shaken up and he can't just up and go do something about it himself.
Probably the worst part of his promotion, he no longer has the freedom to act leave marine headquarters to face threats directly. It seems almost as though the higher up one goes to the top levels of the organization, the more their ability to move about freely is limited.
The fact that Akainu and the Elders were on guard regarding Nika proves they are more dangerous adversaries, as they take any new power seriously, but especially this one.
Fluffy truly did it his op hit are hard even hit him he touch anything like cartoon get hit by solids. he can touch them good. It suck that guy can't do even one hit on him
He's afraid of Luffy, just not because of his strength but because of his influence. If the thing about Lucci, a CP-0 member attacked a Yonko crew comes up on the news, it's equal to that the Marine declared war against Yonko Luffy, that will make Dressrosa, Straw Hats Grand fleet, Cavendish Pirate, Amazon Lily, Rayleigh, Bellamy, Fish-man Island, Elbaf, remnant of the Whitebeard Pirate, Zou Island, Zunesha, Wano, Water 7,... their enemy.

Crazy to see Akinu switch gears on fighting Luffy when he almost killed him at Marineford and was incredibly persistent in trying, but now that he's an Emperor and has Gear 5, he says to not engage with him at all
Back then Luffy was within his reach, and he was certain he could kill Luffy before he grew to be able to actually threaten the world government's strongest fighters. Now Luffy has been acknowledged as an emperor, he is nowhere near where Akainu is (and Akainu can't just leave since he is now the fleet admiral) and he has no confidence in the ability of CP-0 to deal with Luffy considering that two of them already fought him and Zoro two years ago and they lost. All he can do is wait for Kizaru to show up and hope that he manages to kill Luffy this time.
Feels so good to see Luffytaro saan as an eoinkaai.. waiting for the day when Luffi's Haki will surpass Akagami or Roger or Shirohige.. I think I'm gonna go crazy that day 💚💚 Joyboy? Lucky? Listen my fellow crewmates, luck favors those who work hard consistently, like the Lugiwaranu ichimi 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Might also be the reason why he targeted Luffy first rather than Ace back in the Marineford Arc. Between those two, Luffy is the biggest threat to their world because of his potential. He probably attacked Luffy first to elliminate that threat. Unfortunately, Ace took the hit and Akainu now is probably seething with rage thinking "if only that pirate didn't get in my way....if only I was faster....none of these events would happen"
@@jacqueslin8178 maybe. But I assume that he only find out the whole truth after he became the Fleet-Admiral. Every Fleet-Admiral needs to know the truth in order to act as a precaution.
Idk if anyone else noticed but I found Kizaru’s facial expressing weird….he is usually so laid back, and that fact he didn’t smile I wonder if he’s thinking “I don’t wanna deal with this shit right now.”

Cuz if he fucks up it will be worse then imperial down since the elders now know his joyboy and have strated to take action
akainu has never been and will never be a fool. that's something you gotta respect about him. he knows luffy isn't some old whitebeard who can barely use haki these days without dying. a fight against a younger, more active and energetic yonko is going to make marineford look like a small skirmish.
akainu doesn't want to fight. he wants to win.
@@theghostofthomasjenkins9643 ..... and even all you said an old whitebeard beat hes ass😂😂😂
I love how ever since becoming Fleet Admiral, all we ever see from Sakazuki is him having to deal with shit like this. Dude probably aged 20 years since he was promoted. Sengoku is probably sitting in a corner somewhere, munching his snacks and laughing his ass off at the fact that he doesn't have to do this shitty job anymore.
Sengoku LITERALLY aged 20 years after resigning, he went from looking in his 40s to his 70s real quick, all that stress finally being unloaded after decades of service.
@Khooni-p3iand stopped workinv out
Didn't Sengoku show up and mock Akainu for having now to deal with shit like this?
@@varricYup, he said not so easy, huh? Or something like that from around the doorway.
@varric yea
I love the fact that Luffy is finally regarded as a big player. Kinda sad to lose the underdog aura that made us love him in the first place, but it was time our boy grew out of those clothes! ❤
Wait, how underdog-
@@Barri2410Going against luffy meaning going against his allies accros the new world. back when he'a rookie he's the champ of all the underdogs but mostly just him and his crew.
can't stay an underdog forever cause when you keep winning, no one can look down on you anymore. he beat kaido 1v1, something only the best in the world had ever done. he was also the only one to finish the job.
@@Thecorai nah, it was 1v1. everyone else was out of that fight before kaido even started trying. big mom was also still up there when all the other people were, too.
@@theghostofthomasjenkins9643to be fair kaido was fighting the entire night with no rest so he probably was withered out by the time of gear 5. But I still think Luffy is yonko level, just not full kaido level yet
Akainu now truly feels like he understands the weight behind the title "Fleet Admiral". When he was just a Admiral, he seemed more like a weapon for carrying out his values. Now, he seems like the ultimate commander-in-chief who understands that he has his job to fulfill while also managing what the higher-ups want from him.
Lucci still thinks he is fighting Luffy like old days....but this time it was just quicker
Last time Luffy won by the skin of his teeth. This time, Lucci didn't even stand a chance.
@@FreeFireFull fr every time he got hit he gon done got knocked out almost lmaoo bro was a punching bag this time around
Tbh I kinda wished Lucci did much better. Just that Lucci was the only person to nearly kill luffy with straight hands and skill and I wished he was a actual rival

There's also the one with long _head_ (although not in this vid)

@@memes12309 i didn't say hair, I said HEAD (and, funnily enough (presumably) a natural one, compared to Vegapunk because he ate devil fruit)
I love Kizaru's current color scheme. It has enough yellow to compliment the black that matches his hair
Dude doesn’t skip neck day
Akainu: “See?! Things are getting complicated again!”
One Piece Fans: “I know, right?!?!”
Luffy isn't just an emperor but the youngest one ever.. all those One piece legends were literally nobodies when they were Luffy's age.. but my man here already fought through a major war, triggered and won a few civil wars, gathered allies with many kingdoms and races, has his own fleet even though he doesn't acknowledge it.. all the while all he had to do to stand out was tell people his granddad is a marine hero or that his dad is the government's no.1 enemy..
I wouldn't really say nobodies.
Whitebeard's backstory was limited of what we know.
Marshall D. Teach was already has a big name under Whitebeard's fleet, while Shanks not only was the member of the Roger Pirates, but also already established a crew before he even met Luffy. And since back then Shanks was already known as a pirate, he definetly wasn't.
Both Big Mom and Kaido were members of the Rocks Pirates, who were famous of colliding with Roger and Garp in their prime.
And Buggy... he was already famous as the warlord.
Luffy after all wasn't also a nobody before being a Yonko, yet his journey as the liberator of Kingdoms and the one who declared war on WG, he was already a big name before even learning Haki.
Of course Luffy being the youngest ever Yonko is impressive, but calling them nobodies would the same thing as saying Julius Caeser was a nobody, before he became the first emperor.
@@Serminator30I agree with everything other than buggy was 37 when he became a warlord. Before he WAS a nobody in the east blue
Lucci learned the hard way why CP0 and the Navy/Marines need permission to fight an emperor
Kaku and Stussy : "Dont do it Lucci!"
Lucci : "Round 2..fight!"
Lucci 5 min later : *wtf happened I passed out*
i really question lucci's intelligence at this point. no matter if you think it was trickery or he simply got lucky, luffy walked into a fight with kaido of all people and kaido didn't walk out. at that point, luffy is the smartest guy on earth, the strongest, or the luckiest. you don't want to tangle with that, lol.
This title is all wrong, Akainu doesn’t fear luffy, he fears the paperwork that comes out of an all out war with Luffy and ALL of his friends and crew 😂
He's also a Fleet Admiral
1:56 Akainu's reaction is killing me everytime lol
I love how much you can tell Kizaru does *not* want to do this when they flashed to him.
Why is he always so chill an calm
0:50 one of luffys cool new techniques i dig it it shows hes using his awakening smartly
this entire fight has just been luffy seeing and testing what he is capable of
Perfect punching bag at perfect timing
Hell yeah I wanna see more physics bending move from Luffy gear 5
Akainu: *flashes back to when he was bragging about killing the son of Roger* 😰
Or flashes back when he got beat up by kaido.
Title is misleading.
He isn't afraid of Luffy
He's angered by him
especially Luffy is a Yonko.
The power diff between Lucci and Luffy now rather than before is insane
It's like the power gap between Zoro and luffy
VERY HUGE
@@Babyinyelloww I think the power gap is bigger than the gap between Luffy and Zoro considering Lucci lost to Zoro later on
@@A_Edits6067yeah but it's for example
Akainu is slowly becoming strategic due to the pressure of his official role
It's crazy how this is already 5 months old
Out of all the Yonko, Akainu absolutely hates Luffy’s guts.
This is why Akainu became a fleet admiral, he never underestimates his enemies! He’ll always be in full power mode!
Akainu doesn't fear luffy only the actions he is bringing.
He is afraid of to clash with the Grand Fleet
@nobodywashere4743 don't see why with his Devil Fruit alone, he should be able to sink maybe half the fleet.
To fight Luffy is to fight a few of the strongest superpowers in the world. Rayleigh and the Amazons is nuisance enough. Add in the grand fleet and his old friends like Alabasta and Dressrosa, and the fishmen, you got yourself a full-blown war.
@@mykellederickpalad7883 Plus there is the possibility of Dragon getting involved as well, since you know Luffy's father and such.
@@nobodywashere4743akainu can easily deploy 100k Marines and crush luffys grand fleet. Its luffy and the strawhats that are the main threat
Lucci: I fought with him two years ago. Won first time and lost second time. We deserve a rematch. Let’s fight the Third time.
Akainu: DONT LET LUCCI FIGHT HIM THATS LIKE A DECLARATION OF WAR
Luffy: It’s ok! I’m havvvvvingggg funnnnnnn!
Getting beaten and then getting in trouble. Tough day for Lucci!
Whoever Chose This Animation Style Is Incredible
Akainu sounds calmer now cause he realized how much paper work Fleet admiral has
He found out why sengoku immediately turned gray after retiring lmao
"tell lucci to wait for the navy"
Sir, what part of "we already lost communications" did you not cope onto ?
I love how Akainu says fighting luffy and his crew is like a declaration of war which is true since luffy awakened his devil fruit
This clip show us
How reasonable akainu is
I'd loved to know what kind of admiral he is
Like they did on fujitora, aokijia and ryokugyu
Love that Luffy is just a damn looney tune now like he was always kinda goofy but now his powers really reflect it. He hits gear 5 like Popeye hits a can of spinach
Akainu: "So we should be fine, as long as no one picks a fight with Straw Hat."
Lucci: "Question."
Akainu : Where's kizaru?
Soldier : Already on his way to egghead island
Akainu : And where is greenbull?
Soldier : Follow kizaru sir
Akainu : and where is fujitora?
Soldier : stanby as back up plan.
Akainu : then who's defending navy base?
Soldier : you sir
Akainu : that's it. Im going too
Nah, he stayed for kuma
It's funny how not to long ago people were calling him and his crew "rookie pirates". Even tho luffy has been running circles around these big named pirates. Whole Cake Island being a prime example where he defeated two sweet generals, stole a road glyph, smashed a priceless picture, added jimbe to the crew and essentially made a fool of a yonko.
Timeline wise, end of Whole Cake and End of Wano were a month apart. Return to Sabaody to where we are in Egghead is a span of 3 months It hink
@nighttimeasbestos5958 lol that's fast, luffy practically doing a pirate king speedrun at this point.
@@HeWhoPwnsNoobs I think I'd seen people say it's shorter, but going from when we saw a full moon we can tell for sure that the difference in time from end of whole cake to end of wano was one moon cycle
they took a rubbing of it not steal it
The big dogs started respecting the straw hats after dressrosa, then got cemented after the whole cake island incident.
Marine ain't afraid of the war against SHs but the possible backup that might show up. Going up against SHs fleet, RA, Rayleigh, Garp etc isn't gonna be easy compared to WBs fleet.
And then WB told his crew to keep SH alive, so some of them might show up as well.
Backup that arrivwd for Luffy on Egghead was OP though (not gonna spoil). Marines shat their pants. Sakazuki was right about not engaging.
@@Si69inefor real😂
WB was only easy because they cheated as well was old,sick had a traitor kill one of their top members and captured another as a hostage so could not go all out had to have another ally turn traitor to injure whitebeard to weaken him even more when sick and old stopping him using kings haki for not being able to focus then had pirate allies as well so not just fight against wg/marines
at least akainu isnt stupid. they'd at least need 2 admirals there if they wanted to stand a chance. cant wait for the 5 elders to be animated.
2 admirals still won't be enough at all to stand a chance to deal with a yonko. Luffy just turned 2 top tiers into pizza
@@richardadu6799 im pretty sure kizaru was conflicted fighting in egghead thats why he got stopped, and lucci was just a nuisance at most. outclassed. kuzan and garp fought if you recall. admirals are close to emperor strength and luffy is just a new emperor.
@@alwaysturnonaircon I think a point here is that: the original three admirals are probably closer to the Yonko in strength. The newer admirals are probably weaker.
@@alwaysturnonairconwhat has Suzan and garp fight got to do with yonko strength
@@solaris218saying the lava is weaker than Luffy is crazy. The guy who whooped white beard.
This is definitely a new pace for Luffy. Before, the Marines would pounce on him without a 2nd thought and with everything they have on hand. But now that he’s officially a Yonko, they can’t lay a finger on him without upper brass approval
Akainu has NEVER ever underrestimated Luffy's power since Marineford.
He's always aknowledged Luffy's influence amongst the others and his capability of making allies.
Say whatever you want about Akainu, but he's one the most consistent marines Admiral so far.
Blud's quaking in his desk
But just you wait when akainu is finished infusing haki into his desk
Akainu is afraid of his natural enemy paperwork
Akainu really be regretting taking up the fleet admiral position.
Beginning: we are the world government you don’t want to do war with us.
Now: we are the government let’s not start a war with an emperor.
the last time akainu showed fear is when whitebeard nearly killed him. his lava may be strong, but luffy did survive kaido's flames
Anime not manga
Never showed fear in manga
Just anime shitty things
He raped wb in manga
Lava is hotter than flames
@@2728033 the sun is hotter than lava but i know. i'd like to say that luffy stands a chance, but we're talking about an admiral who fought for ten days and completely changed half of punk hazard. we'll find out soon
@@2728033 Only haki can transcend all. You think lava will affect luffy?
One must imagine Smoker and Akainu genuinely tweaking at the thought of how this child, who they knew was going to be a threat, who they took with complete seriousness from the beginning since they met them, has been dealt with using ineffective solutions by the navy and essentially allowed to escape until he flourished, and has now not only become a yonko, but has turned an admiral and an elder into pancakes, caused all 5 elders to appear at the island for battle, escaped while all the elders got sent back home and every marine on the island was knocked tf out, heavily injured and defeated the aforementioned admiral Kizaru, as well as the members of CP0, and are now traveling with the genius, motherf*cking Vegapunk (Lilith)
And 2 ultra deadly giants.
"Don't let Lucci fight Luffy. Garps' gonna galaxy impact me on my head, so send Kizaru there".😂
Being Fleet Admiral is not like what Sakazuki imagined, I bet sometimes he asks himself why he wanted the job, everything is being shaken up and he can't just up and go do something about it himself.
Probably the worst part of his promotion, he no longer has the freedom to act leave marine headquarters to face threats directly. It seems almost as though the higher up one goes to the top levels of the organization, the more their ability to move about freely is limited.
The fact that Akainu and the Elders were on guard regarding Nika proves they are more dangerous adversaries, as they take any new power seriously, but especially this one.
Akainu:"no matter what dont let him fight straw hat"
Lucci:"..."
Kaku: "Don't do anything, Lucci, it could start a war."
Lucci: "Nah, Strawhat's down for the 1v1, it's cool."
1:54 Kizaru already looking high AF before his battle with Luffy 😅
Fluffy truly did it his op hit are hard even hit him he touch anything like cartoon get hit by solids. he can touch them good. It suck that guy can't do even one hit on him
0:59
Akainu is going to flip shit when he hears what lucci did
Luffy really came a long way!
Akainu: W.e you do, don't fight with strawhat.
Lucci "Fights strawhat right a way"
Good to know Kizaru is still high.
Luffy is now a Yonko, eh? It's just feels like yesterday I watched Marineford war
How was Akainu afraid? He was just acknowledging Luffy as a threat
He's afraid of Luffy, just not because of his strength but because of his influence. If the thing about Lucci, a CP-0 member attacked a Yonko crew comes up on the news, it's equal to that the Marine declared war against Yonko Luffy, that will make Dressrosa, Straw Hats Grand fleet, Cavendish Pirate, Amazon Lily, Rayleigh, Bellamy, Fish-man Island, Elbaf, remnant of the Whitebeard Pirate, Zou Island, Zunesha, Wano, Water 7,... their enemy.
@@mediumtext8038Brodie u trippin. Akainu ain't afraid of nobody. He might "fear" Luffy's influence as a yonko. But fear Luffy himself? Like 1on1??? Nahhhh Brodie, my goat ain't afraid of no one, and I stand on that😤.
Absolute justice fr💪💯
Bros literally iching to get on the battlefield. He's ITCHING to get his hands on the straw hats. Afraid???? Bro came up outta da trenches, HE LIKE DAT FR. He's like a volcano in a bottle.

Phantom24 Cool. I prefer wano
@@I5g58 L take recently bias has you in a chokehold
@Phantom24-w3c Wano is the best. Kaido vs luffy is the best fight(s) in the series. Watching luffy finally be in the big leagues, watching him grow in adapt to fight this force of nature, and the contrast between kaido relying on raw power and luffy and the samurai relying on skill.
"YOU DID WHAT?!?!?!"
"TO LUFFY'S WHO?!?!?"
"IN FRONT OF HOW MANY PEOPLE?!?!"
Love how Akainu doubted Kizaru after Egghead and then he exclaimed "Why don't you go here, to look for yourself" then Akainu just apologized.
Cant wait for the Fight with Luffy and Akainu.
That fight might not happen, considering that Marco, Sabo, and Yamato are all valid contenders for who will defeat akanui
Crazy to see Akinu switch gears on fighting Luffy when he almost killed him at Marineford and was incredibly persistent in trying, but now that he's an Emperor and has Gear 5, he says to not engage with him at all
Back then Luffy was within his reach, and he was certain he could kill Luffy before he grew to be able to actually threaten the world government's strongest fighters. Now Luffy has been acknowledged as an emperor, he is nowhere near where Akainu is (and Akainu can't just leave since he is now the fleet admiral) and he has no confidence in the ability of CP-0 to deal with Luffy considering that two of them already fought him and Zoro two years ago and they lost. All he can do is wait for Kizaru to show up and hope that he manages to kill Luffy this time.
I like how it wasn't even the marines that declared him emperor it was Big News Morgan and then everyone just sorta accepted it.
"No matter what, don't let Lucci fight Straw Hat"
Yeah... About that...
The funny thing is, that CP-0 isn't allowed to fight Buggy either
1:11 1:59 I know One Piece has some weird character designs but what’s with his neck?!?!
Luffy playing around while seriously hurting his opponents is hilarious
Feels so good to see Luffytaro saan as an eoinkaai.. waiting for the day when Luffi's Haki will surpass Akagami or Roger or Shirohige.. I think I'm gonna go crazy that day 💚💚
Joyboy? Lucky?
Listen my fellow crewmates, luck favors those who work hard consistently, like the Lugiwaranu ichimi 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The real interesting part is that Akainu already knows a lot about the Void Century. Especially about Luffys awakened power.
Might also be the reason why he targeted Luffy first rather than Ace back in the Marineford Arc. Between those two, Luffy is the biggest threat to their world because of his potential. He probably attacked Luffy first to elliminate that threat. Unfortunately, Ace took the hit and Akainu now is probably seething with rage thinking "if only that pirate didn't get in my way....if only I was faster....none of these events would happen"
@@jacqueslin8178 maybe. But I assume that he only find out the whole truth after he became the Fleet-Admiral. Every Fleet-Admiral needs to know the truth in order to act as a precaution.

2 and a half years earlier it was the other way around.
lucci is like "damn what they say, I want a rematch now straw hat" lol
Idk if anyone else noticed but I found Kizaru’s facial expressing weird….he is usually so laid back, and that fact he didn’t smile I wonder if he’s thinking “I don’t wanna deal with this shit right now.”
He looks depressed and high
Nah bro Lucci wont listen to the Navy he was down bad for a re-match with Luffy after Enies lobby
