Where...did I say...either of them...was going all out?
Sanji has not shown anything other than DJ even against Doflamingo, stop quoting me at all if you're going to come with trash like this.
My dude, even against Fujitora, Zoro only used one sword. You're telling me every single situation of going against a person is gonna involve a person going all out, that circumstances never stop them?
Sanji used Diable Jambes against Doflamingo, while not using either against Vergo. That alone should demonstrate how much Sanji was also holding back, whether by choice or because he was forced to due to his body's condition.
Also, Hell Memories? Poêle à Frire? You're just gonna act like Sanji didn't demonstrate anything above DJ or variations of it to fit your argument?
Vergo showed what he looks like when he's serious, he was fighting a kicking contest with Sanji. Get that through your head, Sanji the guy who only uses kicks got overpowered by Vergo not fighting with his own preferred style and strength.
Sanji got his leg fractured WHILE HIS BODY WAS SO WEAK NAMI COULD CAUSE IT TO RILE IN PAIN. But yes, keep ignoring that Sanji was also severely damaged beforehand, you're clearly taking into account every factor and not just the ones that tickles your ass.
Not to mention the fact that Vergo cracking Sanji's leg happened once, and was followed by Sanji parrying all of his blows without either one getting the advantage over the other. If Vergo was so much stronger, he would have broke both of Sanji's legs and stopped him from MATCHING his blows.
No I cannot care because Vergo was not using anything but kicks and zero hardening.
Yes, yes, perfect, keep talking about how much Vergo was holding back and pretending that Sanji was going 100% with no limitations. Genius.
Sorry but the only comparison to Sanji's leg being cracked would be Zoro's sword being cracked. That is Sanji's strongest weapon. Zoro is not getting his sword cracked to another sword strike that was done casually by his opponent.
If Zoro or his swords were severely damaged beforehand, like Sanji was, then yeah, he would.
Irrelevant Usopp tanked the same attack and went on in the arc with zero issues. If you want to make an excuse that one of CC's attacks that Usopp can deal with without any real issues, can damage Sanji's body so badly, then its literally over for Sanji against a serious Vergo who can inflict much more damage doesn't matter who's in Sanji's body or not, and it makes this thread even easier to answer to.
Not really. Usopp in his own body can defend himself better than Nami in a body she isn't used to.
"Holding back" Lmaoo I already dealt with this trash, thats like saying Luffy held back with G4 if he didn't use his strongest tech KKG, when he didnt even get a chance to use it. Stop.
Diable Jambe is portrayed to be a boost in the same sense Gear 2 is. Luffy went from being completely even with Blueno in Gear 2 to dominating him. Similarly, Sanji using Diable Jambe would be able to perform far better than if he wasn't using Diable Jambe. His fight with Jabra demonstrates this explicitly. But no, I'm sure you're right in that Sanji using Diable Jambe is just a couple inches ahead of Sanji not using it, and is in no way capable of shifting a fight in his favor when it wasn't before. Not like it happened against Jabra or anything, but the **** do I know? I'm just reading the manga.
To make matters worse for Sanji, is that his strongest tech relies on burning and I'm not sure how effective that would be against a smoke logia.
When you hit a Logia with Haki, it causes them to feel as though you've struck their flesh, so it wouldn't matter whatsoever unless Smoker has Akainu's method of still being magma when Haki hits him.
