[Question] How much of a challenge is Smoker to Luffy, from 1-10?

[24 12 11 to troll]

I would just like to ask,has anyone actually ever changed their opinion about anything related to anime through this fighting ._.

Cause it happens ALOT here on NB,but people still stay the same,so by that is it rly worth it to write wallies just for the other person to post some bs so you respond with bs etc etc

Most of the time it's someone being logical, getting bs as a response every time.

Was the fight between Zoro and Ryuma hard or not? What about Daz, who was strong enough to push Zoro to the bring of death, and was on shotted by him. That's the sort of fight we had between Law and Smoker. Law would for instance be in better state and finish a fight between him and say Sanji faster than Luffy would, even if Luffy was stronger than Law. You slip up once and you're done for if you fight those sort of fighters. You got it wrong, it wouldn't have ended the same way it did. We clearly saw how Law dealt with someone he was ligh years ahead - Tashigi. He got rid of her the second their fight began just like that. Whereas Smoker was actually pushing Law and was a split second away from defeating him. Had Smoker now defeated Law at that point, he would have been the one to come out unscatched. Now, would you be saying that Smoker would be light years ahead of Luffy too, since Law is one of Luffy's main pirate rivals? Sanji got his leg damaged as soon as Vergo took him seriously without his bamboo and Sanji himself admitted inferiority after that fight. On the other hand, Smoker was going head to head against a physical fighter like Vergo and was seemingly the one that had the advantage until Smoker deliberately lost on purpose against an excellent haki user. Smoker was portrayed above/below three different fighters that can give Luffy a run for his money and now that he knows more about Law's abilities he's able to perform much better. Like I told you earlier, unless you think Sanji and Co are unable to give Luffy a run for his, you have no reason at all to doubt Smoker can't. If you do, you'll also have to argue the same for Sanji and Co.

You're just repeating the exact same argument over and over again, but just rewording it. In which case, my previous reply still stands lol.
Anyway, you've yet to tell me how Smoker can give Luffy a run for his money.

I think a good proportion of NBers who actively participate in OP sections strongly believe in their own opinions, and therefore are unlikely to waver or give in. It's not easy to admit you're wrong, so some will just stubbornly insist or fade out before giving any leeway. Especially if they belong to a clique of discussioners, so being wrong would probably reduce credibility and result in less approval from those they believe to be like-minded.

I've been telling you but I'll do so again once you answer the questions you are dodging. I think I added some new things, but I can't be bothered to check right now. xd I'm not sure, but I believe it was you who stated you were glad the people that claimed Law is leagues above Luffy stopped doing so. It's the same deal here. Luffy is never going to be so much above Smoker that he can just toss him aside - he'll always be strong enough to make Luffy put in effort to defeat him but it's likely going to be easier for him to do so later than now. Also, tell me how it's possible that there just so happens to be three different people that can give Luffy a run for his money with one of them possibly being stronger than Luffy and Smoker is strong enough to give some of those a run for their money one of which he is stronger than.

I'm done. You're not bringing anything new to the table, and you haven't answered the question that I've repeated for the last three posts, even thought it's a blatant centrepiece of my previous reply. You're even quoting me about two completely different characters and a completely different situation, lol, this is pointless, cya.

Exactly. I think you've figured out that if you do answer the questions I've been asking you which you've been dodging this whole time, you will realise it'll answer the question you're asking me.
