MAGELLAN VS LUFFY.
Hey all... Trying to up my debate and assessing skills, and what better place than NB. So the topic I decided to tackle was Luffy vs Magellan, a rarely thought out match that Luffy usually wins through fan favorite votes. So I'm here to prove why Magellan would rightfully win in a fight, high diff at most.
PURE STRENGTH
Luffy>Magellan in terms of pure strength, as far as we've seen. I'm sure we can all agree on this.
DURABILITY
This is one of Magellans most dominating qualities, his tough durability and high defense. During his matches with Luffy he has been shown to take a few hits, tanking multiple Jet powered attacks from an enraged Luffy, as well as blocking his wax covered GGN Stamp with one arm. I'd like to remind you all that his G2 attacks, regardless of post or TS have never been anything to smirk at. These were the same attacks that were able to deal great damage, even to the likes of the worlds strongest assassin, Rob Lucci and his strongest Tekkai. This same attack that, albeit combined with G3, took down Moriah, the man stated to have fought equally with Kaido, Magellan shrugged off.
Not only that, but he's developed extreme resistance to temperatures all across the thermometer. He's able to withstand the blazing hot temperatures of the 4th level, that was stated to be boiling and could cook a live bird in seconds (just for a moment, try and imagine how hot that is. Not even the highest temp of your oven could do that), as well as the freezing, sub-zero temperatures of Level 5, which instantly froze all food upon contact with the air, without even being bothered by it. Holy ****, he's probably never had a cold in his life.
And to seal to the deal on his superior defense, Magellan casually coats himself with a thick layer of poison every match. I'm already expecting a "Luffy is immune to poison" comment, but I'll get back to that later.
DF
Magellans DF by itself is superior to Luffys, in both attack power and battle application. Poison triumphs stretching. Luffy is a hand to hand combat fighter, and this is his instant downfall. He can't touch Magellan without Haki, or he'll die. Simple as that. Sure, he may do some damage in the process of going all out, but in the end it'll either be a tie or Magellans win.
Magellan however is different. He's a long range fighter and a damn strong one as well, the 2nd strongest in the series (the first being Laws haxed DF).
For starters, wether or not the opponent is using Haki, all it takes is 1 strike to take someone down. Even the smallest drop of his poison can be a death sentence, as it quickly spreads through the body and straight to the nervous system, where it viciously attacks and induces unbearable pain until it kills the victim.
2nd, his poison is fast. REALLY fast. He has demonstrated this by managing to hit Luffy, even in Gear 2nd, a speed, once again on par with Lucci.
3rd, Magellans got variety in his attacks and can come in from multiple directions. His most dangerous attack Hydra can chase Luffy as long as it wants, as far as it needs to go and attack from any direction with either of its heads. And if that fails, he can swim through one of them at high speed and bam, wouldn't know what hit him.
4th, the 'Gear 2nd' of the Doku Doku no Mi, Kinjite. Instant kill tech with a remarkably large range, and burns through anything it touches. It's so powerful that Magellan commented "this poison could destroy impel down itself". It's almost like this poison has a mind of its own too, seeing how it crawls up any surface it touches until deactivated.
5th, even this mans breath is deadly. It's dangerous to even be around him. That's all it takes is for Luffy to get close and for him to breath in his face, an it's GG. Makes him temporarily deaf and ruins his vision to where he can't even see what he's doing. I'll admit though, the effect won't be as intense as it was round 1, due to his newfound resistance, but it's not like he's immune. This will give Magellan ample time to end the match.
"B-But Luffy is immune to M-Magellans poison!"
Caesars has is so much weaker than Magellans poison it's not worth the joke.
He never stated he was immune. He just said that poison didn't effect him much anymore.
Resistance will only take him so far. Think about it, the ONLY thing resistance does is delay the inevitable. Once it touches him, it'll still be doing damage, but just at a slower rate. And this still depends on the quantities he receives it in.
This was an resistance he developed only to Maggie's weaker poison, not Kinjite which you cannot develop a resistance to.

"Hype"
By saying Luffy can beat Magellan, you are saying Luffy can beat Shilliew, who I should remind you was stronger than Yami BB, and still weaker than Magellan, seeing how he was able to put him in the slammer.
You are also saying Luffy can beat Jimbe, which isn't too hard to believe.
You are also saying that Luffy can beat Ivankov.
And that he can beat Croc... Who he has.
But most importantly, you're saying that Luffy can beat all of the above chars in a fight at once, since that whole force was alarmed by Magellans name and knew even as a team that they could not best him.
END.
Thank you for reading and let me know what you think.
