The chapter where NIghtmare Luffy stops Oars' Gum Gum Rifle is chapter 478. I know that because that was the latest chapter when I first caught up to One Piece, I thought it was the sickest shit I had ever seen, and I spent the week pestering people to read One Piece because I had no one to talk to about it. That was in 2007 and I haven't missed a chapter since.
moria's not the strongest or most scary vilain, but he is EXTREMELY creative with his power. this man got the power to control shadows and used it in realyl creative ways. He can manipualte his shadow to attack and even swap places with it, allowing him to go to distant places very quickly, he came up with the method of stealing shadows to create zombies and can even manipulate shadows to change someone's shape (which is why its good for him that his zombies feel no pain, as shadow revolution wouldn't work too well otherwise) Devil fruits aren't about 'strength', they're about creativity. Which is what Luffy's gears are also about, as they're about him using his rubberiness in creative ways beyond standard stretching of the limbs. between moria and, as we'll see later, kuma, this arc is all about emphasising how one can become truly threatening and dangerous if they are creative with their power.
this is why kage kage no mi is my favorite devil fruit (horo horo is close seconde) i love halloween + this df powers are flexible when used right but since this is an insane power and luffy has to progress, oda has to make all the excuses he can for strawhats to win this
Even if Moria is not that threatening, he might be the most proficient devil fruit user we have seen other than Luffy, it's rather fitting than when his fruit is introduced it was said it made him "the ruler of shadows" rather than every other fruit making you a "____human", like Luffy being a rubber man or Mr 1 being a dice human. Now for One Piece at a time: In Japanese Nightmare Luffy is speaking in a different way, less carefree and more rough and serious, to show how this is not the same Luffy as before, in some early design Nightmare Luffy was going to be the same size as normal but in nice clothes and glasses.
you forgot enel, that man uses his control over electricty on a lot of stuff. other lightning users will literally just spam lightning and have inhuman speed but not enel he travels through conductors he expanded his haki's coverage by using it and his df hand in hand he created a ship that can only be controlled with his power said ship can produce thunderstorm clouds that he can use to spam more lightning strikes he uses his df to restart his heart he circumvents his weakness by using the byproduct of his ability. this includes remolding metal he uses it to temporarily fly
This is the definition of Devil Fruit power put into good use. Moria is really not holding back, he is very adept. However he is very rusty, he practices slacking off everyday
This is why Kage kage no mi (Shadow fruit) its the most baddass of all!! Sustitution jutsu!! Shadow bats jutsu!! Shadow clone jutsu!! Shadow slashing and piercing attacks!! Shadow possesion jutsu!! Shadow power buff jutsu!! Best shinobi fruit ever!!
Moria has one of the strongest fruits in the whole series, but because it's so strong, he became lazy. If he put in some effort, I feel he'd be top tier in the OP universe. But that's not his character.
One thing that Oda has always done in One Piece that I really like, is that Devil Fruit powers are as good as the user is able to make use of them. Luffy being the one we see the most. Using the traits of rubber to make a variety of attacks as well as Gear Second and Third. Someone could have a fruit that sounds really strong but might not perform well if its user wasn't good at implementing it, mean while a fruit that doesn't sound like much could be used to great effect if its user is imaginative with its traits.
They keep hating on moriah and act like he's a joke when no other villain so far has gotten this close to destroying the entire crew. Even compared to future battles the fight against moria is one of their hardest
This is because Moriah is that villain who once had an advantage in the fight because he was in his lair, but when he is outside of it he is not worth much.
he doesnt need to move, just send perona to wipe the entire crew. someone else need to take care of usopp tho but the point still stands thriller bark pirates is criminally underrated and unnecessarily hated because of how oda writes them
The swapping with shadow is foreshadowed by him escaping Luffy when Luffy was pursuing the real Moria and is also likely how he got into Oars without being seen by anyone. I remember some people guessing in advance that he could do that at the time although I didn't guess myself. Edit: Nice you figured out both of those immediately after! I really like how Moria immediately realised Robin was a problem when she used her power and took her out before doing anything else. Robin is the silent killer, she almost killed two Warlords, even for Croc it was a close thing. She'd be so much more dangerous if the SH didn't take her into brawls and let her do her assassination thing xD "How would this work against Rob Lucci" Oh I love Lucci but Nightmare Luffy would annihilate him. Nightmare Luffy isn't the strongest fighter in the universe or anything, but no major opponent he's fought before stand a chance at the level they were when he fought them, as long as he thinks to get some water or blood for Croc of course. Nightmare Luffy can't do anything to Ace though, he's a logia and you can't counter a roaring inferno with a bit of water, Croc's weakness was specifically that it hardened the sand but to Ace he'll just evaporate any amount of water Nightmare Luffy could physically use. Smoker however would probably get fucked because he carries his own weakness with him. I don't think smoker's jutte or sea prism stone in general would help much against Ace though, because Luffy can't hold it directly and Ace can just burn to ash any handle that Luffy could use to hold it so even with a mean to touch a logia like sea prism stone, I don't see Nightmare Luffy beating Ace.
Like I keep saying, Moria shouldn't be taken lightly. He may appear lazy and stupid on the outside, but this battle proves how extremely crafty he can be. That warlord spot isn't just for show! 😉
Bro you said subscribe like 5 times in 10 seconds chill 😅 Why does it even matter if the vids performing well? Nobody gets their vids from the sub feed...
There is definitely a heavy power creep this arc. Moria & Nightmare Luffy would both dominate Lucci. Especially Nightmare Luffy. I doubt Nightmare Luffy beats Ace, though. Luffy still can't hit Ace since Ace is a Logia.
I have seen a lot of people have problems with the shadow-swap moment, but that power was already hinted at in Moria's escape from Luffy, so I had no issues with it.
Im really wondering if the live action is going to reach Thriller Bark in the future , maybe in 2029 or 2031 , maybe not but still , it would be really cool to see Nightmare Luffy in live action.
@@EmpteeBluffsWell , im just saying. Maybe it wont reach till Thriller Bark but im hoping that at least it reaches Ennis Lobby , and then they can cancel it or whatever. I want to see Luffy vs Lucci in live action. I dont think it’s that hard to make a CGI leopard man.
That comment about his joints just sounded kind of stupid. I am always amused how you guys are always trying to figure out the story as it's happening instead of waiting 5 minutes and you'll find out your answer a lot of times.

I caught upto one piece on chapter 1000.
I still remember that panel of worst gen on the roof.
@@307nishchay8 Still remember 💀
I caught up at 1044 quite possibly the craziest chapter to catch up with
I caught up somewhere in dress rosa because the anime pacing was so bad

if Carson loves powerscaling like us, he's destined for multiple heart attacks like us watching this show
All valid points, there will be a climax, I promise.
They know, they are at the end if not finished with the arc.
Oh, nothing happens still
Moria didn't became Warlord for nothing, you know? He's a terrifying MF. D:

Spolier alerte
Oui je suis d'accord et je dirais même que pour moi un des personnages qui utilise le mieux son fruit du démon c'est Doflamingo
Damn real quick to pull out the asspull card aren’t ya.
This is why Kage kage no mi (Shadow fruit) its the most baddass of all!!
Sustitution jutsu!! Shadow bats jutsu!! Shadow clone jutsu!! Shadow slashing and piercing attacks!! Shadow possesion jutsu!! Shadow power buff jutsu!!
Best shinobi fruit ever!!
Moria has one of the strongest fruits in the whole series, but because it's so strong, he became lazy. If he put in some effort, I feel he'd be top tier in the OP universe. But that's not his character.
depression from utter failure can do weird things to someone
He become lazy after his defeat in new world.
Most of his original crew died after losing to Kaido. The only one left was Absolam. And that's enough to make anyone clinically depressed
The kage kage no mi is so cool and versatile but it's stuck with Moria who's too lazy and defeated to use it to it's full potential.
No, he used it to its fullest. He himself has just gotten lazy and weak after his entire crew died (except Absalom) to Kaido
Except, huh...
@@blackknight6757 well at this point anyway
Moria is a good char
When you get to Fishman Island arc, watch the remake instead of the old animation
It hasn't been published yet, maybe it won't fully be by the time they reach the arc
@adbn3349 EPISODE 1 is already out
first of all,this is a spoiler,second,the origin series still better then the remake even with not so cool animation
The remake cuts too many scenes so they better react to the original version and then to the remake.
@Kayver2C you want us to watch over 50 episodes of Fishman Island when we can watch 21 episodes 😭Fishman Island for 50 episodes mate
moria has the potential to be the MC from solo leveling but decided to be lazy
Robin has one of the best useful devil fruits ever
2:28 we will never escape the Ball Trial
The next episode will probably show them that Moria is actually truly powerful. He just became lazy and he loses because of his low enthusiasm.
Robin was the real mvp in this oars fight. If you look back she provided the most support to the characters defensively and offensively.
Nah Zoro did more
Is she?

NOTE - Oars is 67m or 219ft tall.
Well that's it. Let's go to fishman island I guess 💀
STORM is the attack Luffy used to defeat crocodile
They keep hating on moriah and act like he's a joke when no other villain so far has gotten this close to destroying the entire crew. Even compared to future battles the fight against moria is one of their hardest
Fax
guess because hes clearly not a very intimidating or serious feeling character
This is because Moriah is that villain who once had an advantage in the fight because he was in his lair, but when he is outside of it he is not worth much.
he doesnt need to move, just send perona to wipe the entire crew. someone else need to take care of usopp tho but the point still stands
thriller bark pirates is criminally underrated and unnecessarily hated because of how oda writes them
Hogback and Absalom deserve to be hated, tho
Oof, I gotta prepare a nice meal to watch the next one 🔥🔥🔥

I would love to see Moria fight in his prime not Beer belly thor version lol
i would recomend you be very carefull with reading comments,bc probably the next several arcs alot of spoiler guys may appear🙏
Bro you said subscribe like 5 times in 10 seconds chill 😅
Why does it even matter if the vids performing well?

Daily grind guys!!!
It's a great climax. Nothing happens after the next little part.

gum gum storm was used to take down crocodile
Quit with the Moria slander, y’all complain when he didn’t do anything at the start but now that he’s making moves , it’s a problem ?
Its 'asspulls" or "gimmicks" if the villain isn't inherently intimidating huh
Is it wrong for someone to be powerful and not intimidating at the same time lmao
I have seen a lot of people have problems with the shadow-swap moment, but that power was already hinted at in Moria's escape from Luffy, so I had no issues with it.
