Who's the final villain?

[Future Warrior]

Good writing.

You're a bitch.

 

[Symbiote]

I think it’s going to be the BB pirates on the final island.

 

[Future Warrior]

I find it laughable that the Admirals will be much of a threat at that point in time though.

Bro the admiral disrespect needs to stop. Just stop.

I'm not disrespecting them. Luffy will beat Blackbeard, who will be stronger than Kaido, who is stronger than the Admirals. In a 1v1 battle I don't see how Luffy could lose to an Admiral at that point in time.

Fair enough, I thought you meant admirals in general won't be a threat. I could still see them being extreme diff matchups for the other Straw Hats.

 

[SSJ2]

Yes, if they fight the rest of the crew they will be extreme threats. Zoro and Sanji would be hard pressed to beat a pair of Admirals by the end of the series imo. The rest of the crew would struggle mightily.

 

[Future Warrior]

I think it's just Zoro and Sanji. I don't see the other Straw Hats being anywhere near that level.

How will Mihawk be a challenge for Zoro around the time Luffy becomes the Pirate King lol

Zoro should be above Kitakuri by now no?

 

[Future Warrior]

We don’t know when the fight will happen.

 

[Papasmurf]

So how do you think it'll go? Zoro just ditches the crew for a few chapters to settle things with Mihawk now that he feels strong enough, after the crew took down Kaido?

 

[Papasmurf]

Because if it's after they take down Blackbeard Mihawk will literally be a walk in the park for the Monster Trio

 

[Future Warrior]

We are talking about a Yonko tier opponent. At no point would Mihawk be a walk in the park ever for anybody lol.

His showings in Summit War do not back up him being a Yonko tier opponent. Dude should've shredded everyone he fought if he were, whether he was "not serious" or not. We do know he stalemated Shanks before but Shanks could've trained more than him honestly because there's no way he was even sick Whitebeard level in the Summit War judging by his showings against Jozu etc.

 

[Future Warrior]

His feats at Marineford is no worse than the admirals at that point. Kizaru, Aokiji, and Mihawk all fought commanders.

A healthy Yonko is a good deal ahead of Admiral level. And Whitebeard while gravely sick with multiple gunshot and sword wounds pinned Akainu to the floor.

I don't feel like having a long debate, so I'll just say that you're wrong.

No u.

Mihawk was being super casual at Marineford. He never got deep into combat either - at Marineford I'd say Luffy, WB and Akainu are the only ones we saw go close to how they would be in an all-out 1vs1 fight. Maybe anyone else who attacked Akainu after Ace's death too. Even WB and Akainu might not have been going as hard as they would if Marineford suddenly became empty, since they had to worryh about not killing everyone on the island (and for Akainu, not destroying the HQ island itself).

Mihawk threw a serious swing saying he was going to measure the gap between himself/other Shichibukai and Whitebeard. Maybe once he has a real fight scene in Part 2 things might be different, but as it stands his showings and implied station during Marineford was a notch below Whitebeard and Kaido.

 

[sei'taer]

Mihawks only showing put him on the level of a yonko commander, which is basically what Zoro's level is right now. Pretty sure Mihawk is stronger than what that one slash showed, but it was enough for him to judge where he was in comparison to Whitebeard.

As for the final opponent, I don't even think there is going to be a final one on one fight to end the series at this point. It'll be more like the Summit war again but this time to buy Luffy and the others a chance to get to the final island.
