im not saying he's vice admiral weak. im saying he's above sabo by only a small margin at best. if he is at all. only hype claims hes above sabo by virtue of rank. even though garp has proven rank means nothing.
anyway hes not at all the "strongest" and most unstoppable person ever

1. "his DF is the weather so he must be storm from x-men level"
this has to eb the most ridiculous one. he didn't send lightning to luffy in loguetown for one. that was a freak accident. and IMO so was the wind. the wind later on may have been him but theres no proof because he was with his boys when that happened. so one of his boys could have wind.

2. "everyone is scared shitless of him".
no they are just shocked to learn new information.
NO ONE is afraid of this guy. theres several key occurances
- smoker just stares at dragon and doesn't really give a shit that hes there. whereas if kaido showed up he would be like "OH FUK, LETS GO GUYS. RUN".
- no one cares about slaughtering revolutionaries. the government does not fear reprisal from murdering ivankov or luffy. but killing ace was some world shattering declaration of war. akainu attacked ivankov and brushed him off like "who cares. you think dragon's gonna come here and fuk me up if i kill you? GTFO". and he was fixated on luffy mostly because he is the son of someone evil, not someone strong. he hates what he percieves as evil. and akainu, despite what some fans believe isn't some slobbering psychopath who kills any and all pirate. otherwise why doesn't he try to kill all the warlords? why tolerate them? exactly. shut it.
- the govenrment has mostly dealt with dragon like this
"dude dragon is conquering our shit in north blue"
"hm........probably should put a bounty out then"
"....do you want to do something about it?"
"oh...um...send CP9...kill his top guys..that'll show him!"
and they did! they did just send a couple of guys to fight dragon and kill his men.
where's the buster call? wheres the holy shit mobilisation and industrialisation to stop this rebellion in our own territory? instead the gov is treating dragon like a minor pest, buzzing in their ears for ten years. yep, this has been going on TEN YEARS. IMO only reason they havent killed this guy is because they can't spare an admiral to go. admirals are needed to fight emperors and supernovas and be the bodyguards of marejoa.

1. "he opposes the goverment"
uh so does luffy. so...is dragon luffy level?
i admit his subordinates are rather strong like kuma and sabo, but who do you think the rest of the guys are? rank and file fodders who cant do shit if a admiral shows up.

hype doesnt mean shit. usually when a character's hyped, they ahve something to mention about his or her fighting abilities. hancock got called strong. ok she's strong. mihawk duelled shanks. ok i know who mihawk is so shanks is probably strong.
we got NOTHING with dragon. except "hes got a few strong officers (actually two strong officers) and leads an army, that is unknown in size power or relevance".
no indication hes a great and experienced warrior. which should have been the first thing to come up when hyping this guy.
shouldnt fodders be like "holy shit its luffy, son of dragon, who duelled mihawk back in the day! so don't fuk with him, k?"
or "holy **** its dragon. he can send hurricanes on your ass if you kill his boys or fuk with his plans!".
but no. we get nothing. just promises that hes "dangerous" and spooky.

2. "he is a master strategist".
nope. he's already made two bonehead decisions. i don't know why this army is following this braindead buffoon who can't fight a war and has no idea how.
this guy is fukin stupid.
- sends away both top trusted officers to suicide misisons for no reason away from the main army. kuma got sent to be a spy in the government. but he has no real way to communicate this given hes a brainwashed zombie. which dragon AND kuma let happen. this guy can teleport. he didn't want to not be a zombie? he couldnt just push himself back to dragon's army?
and ivankov. from the wikia it says he was captured. so dragon just lets his boys get assraped and thrown in prison? and makes absolutely no efforts or attempts to rescue ivankov?
this is not just selfish and absurdly cruel but also proof hes weak and doesn't have whitebeard's power who was able to go and save one crew member.
the government has assfuked dragon and gotten his guy! and he let them do it. that deflates all threat level for dragon personally, as a fighter. if he cared or was strong, he'd bust the prison open and get ivankov back. but he didnt. probably because he'd be killed trying.

- he sent sabo to an irrelevant island on a random ass mission that won't amount ot anything (arms trade? so stopping one arms factory on one island is gonna do anything? akainu has mobilised his boys and is probably pumping out rifles every second. who gives a flying turd about doflamingo) in which sabo and his forces could end up surrounded cut off or killed, due to literally being in an entirely hostile continent with one rickety boat.
again shouldnt sabo be guarding dragon or with him? why's he sending his SECOND IN COMMAND to do a job a couple of expendable fodders could do, or at least a mid level officer.
what the hell is he doing splitting his forces like this so arbitrarily? if his HQ gets attacked, whos going to be the main defence? dragon himself. he may as well be alone vs however many VAs and admirals arrive.
retarded.

and does this guy not know how to fight a war?
hes basically spreading his men out into several secret bases around the oceans. is this a guerilla war? because i thought this was a full scale world war. i thought your fighting the government.

akainu has basically spit in his face with the whole world military draft. he's flaunted to dragon that "hey. hey dragon. you think you have an army? bit ch i have a world. ok? a world. and i can call hundreds of thousands of guys up to fight and kill you, ok? but i wont because i have emperors to worry about and pirates. hang tight, ill get to you eventually".

dragon had his golden opportunity to attack and defeat the marines and it was 2 whole years ago. the whitebeard war, when the marines were tired bloodied and battered. had dragon made one big offensive then....maybe he could have gotten some headway. his goal after all is taking marejoa and killing the gorosei.

akainu has dragon's balls in a vice. or he could if he cared enough. theres no way dragon can function his supply lines if theres a million marines out and trying to cut them off. he will starve and die. he cannot feed this army across this big a spanse of land. he cannot hold the nations hes already conquered. especially if the marines take them back. what will he do? turn around and lose more soldiers in a siege just to get one irrelevant north blue kingdom?

akainu has mobilized this war machine of his. hes probably making one pacifista a day. a thousand rifles an hour.
and he has inexhaustible men.
dragon has only chipped away at a giant. hes a prickly needle poking a dinosaur. and akainu doesn't care. why would he care? wheres the buster calls? wheres the mobilising to stop this oh so dangerous rebellion?

long term. dragon can't win. he is fuked. FUKED.
he has a tiny army in the ass end of nowhere. he wasted his top officers and sent them on suicide missions, or outright let them get captured.
lets say he FINALLY gets to the fringes of the grand line. what do you think will be waiting for him? thousands of marines and cannons.
row upon row of pacifistas.
row upon row of loyal guys who don't want their homes invaded and destroyed by dragon and his trigger army revs.
mile upon mile of insurmountable grand line weather, and reefs and sea kings that dragon has no experience with.

and then...top tier admirals. garp. sengoku. and whoever else has a problem with his invasion encroaching on their lands. top tier pirates who want to say "fuk that" to a world war destroying their chances of getting the one piece.
shichibukais if thye are still around. mihawk (probably).
dragon's gonna fight all of that. while worrying about supply lines, spreading out his men, how hes gonna duel them on the open sea in full scale naval battles etc. defeat entrenched positions.
all of that.

and all he has is ragtag volunteers with little or no real training, probably wiht different cultures and languages, no disciplined experience in naval warfare, which he will need if hes to win this thing, and a couple of ok fighters like sabo and ivankov.
already, if we assume dragon is around as powerful as mihawk or garp. one of the two.
that leaves ALL THAT OTHER SHIT up to sabo ivankov and an army of fodders to hold off and somehow get past.

then theres marejoa. which would be FORTIFIED TO SHIT with cannons pacifistas and their most elite marine, kong.
and i know waht your going to say.
kong is all hype. but screw that, ok? hes a former fleet admiral. if dragon can be hyped up based on the most vague hype, then kong gets it too and so do gorosei.
gorosei and kong rule the world. a war torn, shitty world that is pretty insolent with its pirate problem.
you think they, on their own, will be a walk in the palk to defeat and take down?
like i said, if dragon could, he'd have already done it 2 years ago.

3. "he is luffy's father so of course hes strong"
thats ludicrous.

4. "he is a hero"
he brought the horror and desolation of war upon the world (but like i said, the moment he makes a large move, he will get massacred). most of the planet in one piece is living in relative peace.
i mean sure dragon could be some kind of vigilante assassin who takes out all the tyrants if he wants. but to get people on his side, and want to fight and kill millions in a full scale world war?
how will that make ANYTHING better?
the two sides, if revs are as powerful as their fans think, would probably just capitulate.
victory would be meaningless because you already killed everyone! this is not a man to be followed or considered a righteous revolutionary.

history has taught us most revolutions or coups are settled very quickly. because the outnumbered rebels cant afford to fuk around.
the only full scale long term civil wars are things like vietnam....american civil war...things like that where one half of a nation is at war with another half. ok? functioning established nations who can use industry to afford to fight long wars. the revs popped up out of nowhere 12 years ago and have made very little progress since then! its a 12 year war and they havent even BEGUN to engage the main force of marines. its there. in the grand line. probably fortifying it all up to its ass in guns and traps and robots.

and the world wars had actual powerful established industrial superpowers fighting other powerful superpowers.
dragon is one guy, with a couple thousand men, stranded in the ass end of bullshit valley, conquering corrupt kingdoms and then leaving them again, while surrounded by potential foes and a world-ruling power who can call up millions of troops whenever the fuk he wants!

i thought sabo was smart but hes following a buffoon who corrupted his mind into fighting a war where he will certainly lose and die. and for what? because he thinks a ful scale world war will make things better?
demolishing the grand line and probably alot of other places in the fighting is gonna mean that if they win, their new goverment will be able to fukin rule this world?

i bet dragon didnt even think that far ahead. i think he's worrying about that moment when hes won and is king of the world and is like "fuk what now...i don't have any idea how to govern millions of war torn pissed off starving thirsty peasants".

yeah no. i dont think he thought that far ahead....

stopped reading
then you shouldn't have typed anything.
did you read why i think that?

its because no one's afraid of him, he lets his own captain get captured for 12 years and does nothign to save them, he lets his own captain get brainwashed and does nothing to avenge this, he sits back and does nothing as the marines get bloodied and beaten up by whitebeard and blackbeard. and he seems to have no real plan for the siege of the grand line, which has to happen if this is a war he wants to win.

no one gives a fuk about dragon. CP9 killed his top officers with total impunity

Firstly only fans have said he's powerful, the manga only describes him as the worlds most dangerous man, and seeing as Robin spent time with the revs in TS and she's from Ohara it is implied Dragon is the "Most dangerous man on the planet" not because of military capabilities but because he's the closest to figuring out the truth of the void century.

As for his officers, he has more than 2 good officers, he had Kuma who was 1, he has Sabo, Hack, Koala, Ivankov and Scissor guy(can't remember name). Plus with people like that being introduced first why wouldn't we assume he has stronger people still yet to be shown? The revs are probably like the WB pirates, with Dragon having 6-7 squad leaders who each have their own group of skilled fighters.

Loll this dude who wrote this is extremely retarded. I hate when people act like we have nothing to tell Dragon is extremely strong

[video=youtube;hmiL3ta0BzE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmiL3ta0BzE[/video]

1)The leader of the RA
2)The son of a legendary marine
3)The father of the main charcater
4)The trainer of Sabo and btw he is only 22

I think Dragon is leagues above Sabo tbh...he met him as a little boy and trained him up

and this second posts proves exactly nothing, it doesn't even point towards him being weak, it's just arguments pulled out of thin air

1. he let his ''captain'' be captured:
1.a. we have no idea what exactly happened to Kuma
1.b. how the hell do you think he would avenge it if it was something he needed/wanted to avenge? WB + WB pirates + allies were completely annihilated by teh Marines, it doesn't show that Dragon is weak, it just shows he's not stupid enough to walk into MF and die

2. he sits back and waits? well what the hell do you want him to do, maybe you haven't read OP but the WG = 1 Fleet Admiral, 3 Admirals, CP0, Kong, Gorosei, Magellan, Mihawk, .... it is the most powerful organization in OPV capable of rivaling the 4 yonko, you think that him not taking them on at this point is a sign of weakness?

3. he has no plan? well you must know since we know everything about monkey D Dragon, it's not like he's the most secretive character in OP or anything

Also how in the **** did Dragon not cause the lightning. People who say that dumb shit is basically saying "A father would let there son head get cut off and simply wait on faith". If thats the case then he might as well have waited for faith to save Luffy when Smoker was about to caputure him. Its obvious he was watching Luffy the whole time or he wouldn't have said the next chapter "Pirate huh" if he wasnt watching the execution

This thread is coming from pure hate and thats sad

1. Fair point. There is no proof that Dragon has anything to do with the weather, other than almost all of his appearances have been marked with rain or stormy weather.

2. Not true. For one, Smoker isn't the type to be afraid of anybody. He's a typical badass. Many of the Marines were afraid of Dragon's name, trembling and freaking out about it.Robin even commented that he has an outrageous reputation.
-Killing Ace was optimal because he's the son of the Pirate King, the greatest enemy the WG has ever had. Extinguishing his bloodline directly affects the entire world. Even though Luffy has been building up his reputation, he's not really shit. He's still a rookie. The government can freely kill him whenever because of that. Not only that, but Iva and Luffy are criminals to the WG, who are in charge of everything. What reprisal? Who is gonna punish the enforces, makes and interpreters of the law if they kill a criminal?

Ivankov wanted to be in jail. He could have staged an escape at any time, and he chose not to until Luffy came along.

Dragon is doing covert warfare right now. In one of his appearance, someone reported to him that another kingdom belonging to the WG has fallen to the Revolutionaries, showing that whatever he's doing is working according to how he wants it to work.

He's considered the most wanted and dangerous man, in a world where Rayleigh, Whitebeard and Shanks are alive and kicking. You're underestimating Dragon so hard, it's sad.

Relative peace? The Tenryubito have slaves. Entire towns are destroyed by them. Millions of people in the One Piece world suffer because of the rule. There's also constant fighting, rampant poverty and disease, and plain injustice everywhere. Do you even read this manga?

I always try to b polite and all but hack this was just stupid.

A revolution is more about winning the hearts of the pple more than its just killing yo enemy. Go read some liberation war strugles mate especially one on Zimbabwe/Rhodesia then read the news from that place in the yrs 2007-2008 n see what happens when winning the hearts of the pple is thrown out and absolute control is effected then see what Dragon is doing with clear sight and no prejudice butthurt of him probably being stronger than your fav.

a revolution is a civil war. most long wars are between two already very powerful sides who can industrialise their weapons and supply lines. this is one guy with a tiny army spread out in the middle of nowhere conquering irrelevant places one by one and HOPING TO GOD no one in govt sends someone strong to fight them.
this went on for 12 years. and theyve gotten nowhere.
most revolutions and coups are over as quickly as possible because neither side would want a long war of attrition. its about taking the capital and the leader out.
the manga only describes him as the worlds most dangerous man, and seeing as Robin spent time with the revs in TS and she's from Ohara it is implied Dragon is the "Most dangerous man on the planet"
no one said that. most wanted doesnt mean dangerous. im sure blackbeards the current most dangerous anyway due to gura gura.
Hack, Koala and Scissor guy(can't remember name)
trash

1)The leader of the RA
powerless tiny army thats gotten nothing done after 12 years of all out war
2)The son of a legendary marine
meaningless
3)The father of the main charcater
meaningless. are you saying garp's wife or luffys mother is some OD badass? because we would have heard about her by now. was kushina top tier? was goku's father top tier? was supermans father top tier?
4)The trainer of Sabo and btw he is only 22
you have no proof he trained sabo. sure its somewhat implied but never stated. so without proof your just lying to yourself.
also never heard of student surpassing master?

I think Dragon is leagues above Sabo tbh
based on which evidence? from what ive seen hes a retarded tactician anyway so sabo could probably make him waste his efforts and let him tire. if it came to that.
tl;dr. Make your argument/point more concise and maybe more people might care what you have to say.r
dont be lazy and counter my points rather than whine and cry about the length. plenty on this site have written long essays
how the hell do you think he would avenge it if it was something he needed/wanted to avenge? WB + WB pirates + allies were completely annihilated by teh Marines, it doesn't show that Dragon is weak, it just shows he's not stupid enough to walk into MF and die
it shows hes too weak, cowardly and stupid NOT to attack, and grab the govt by the balls when they are exhausted.
this was the one and only time the WG will be weakened in any shape or form, for probably years to come.
which is confirmed when jinbei said the marines are stronger than ever and planning some massive offensive.
every day, every week, the marines get stronger. they are always gathering up more weapons, more war machines, more shichibukais to fight for them, etc.
dragon is a clown and a fool for not making his move sooner.
this is not how you fight a war.
you can't sit bakc and let the maybe ONLY opportunity to win this thing pass you by, and let the enemy get stronger and stronger, as you get weaker and weaker!
every single day, the WG is probably picking off revs using CP0 or other such assassins.
just as they picked off ivankov and took him out.
oh he ESCAPED but that doesnt change the fact dragon was too weak to protect him, and that means he cant protect anyone on his team. no one. they could all die and he wouldnt even notice.
ivankov got cut off and captured. sabo IS cut off and might be captured if things go bad for luffy. kuma is fukin GONE. for good. not coming back. and hack might be cut off and killed too.
as i said, things are looking better and better for marines and worse and worse for dragon.


2. he sits back and waits? well what the hell do you want him to do,
um attack. he started this war and now hes afraid to fight it? to fight and kill the enemies hes declared all out war on and challenged outright openly?
he is an incompetant suicidal braindead tactically and strategically nonexistent sociopathic warmonger if thats the case.
. it is the most powerful organization in OPV capable of rivaling the 4 yonko, you think that him not taking them on at this point is a sign of weakness?
yep.
hes already taking them on.
12 years of taking them on. and hes gotten nowhere. hes still pissing about in the ass end of bullshit valley somewhere in south blue. thats all hes conquered.and he cna thank his fukin gods they havent sent a buster call to kill everything and take those lands back.
the marines could take back everything the revs have gained in these past years, and send them right back to square one. easy.

but they cant because they have 4 fukin emperors right on their doorsteps. dragon is a non issue. the marines have focused all their strength and war machines on the pirate emperors because they are powerful and he is not.

if your going to take it upon yourself to spit in the face of the world's ruling body, an extremely powerful one, you better have a plan to take them out...in 1 or 2 years time, in one fell swoop and put the new government in place.
not bumble around in the middle of nowhere for 12 years while your enemy recruits top tier warriors from the worst warzone in the world, and gets stronger, and stronger and stronger with each passing day.

and then he sends sabo to stop the gun trade. gun trade? when has a gun legit hurt ANYONE in this motherfukin series.
can you name an occasion? i can't.
send him to a pacifista factory! send him to the SMILE factroy if dragon's so smart and knows the goigns on of the world's powers.
send him to a marine training ground. do SOMETHING that helps your actual war effort. but no, hes tactically stupid and wastes sabo's time and powers.
or better yet keep sabo close. as a bodyguard. what happens when dragon gets attacked and is wounded? who directs the troops? sabo, whos thousands of miles away in a hostile warzone he may not get back from, while doing an irrelevant worthless mission?

Also how in the **** did Dragon not cause the lightning.
um because oda wanted it to be a "divine intervention" sign that luffy is like roger and meant to be the king. saying its dragon cheapens the moment completely and makes it just another fight move.

World's Most Dangerous Man
who said that? oh right no one
I would also like to add when was it shown that CP9 took out dragons officers?
mentioned in enies lobby arc as fukuro and jyabura's previous mission they were just coming back from
any of the Marines were afraid of Dragon's name, trembling and freaking out about it.
i re read that part and only fodders looked shocked and a bit sweaty
but only because of the shock, that a major enemy of theirs has connections to another major enemy.
anyway im talking about portrayal.
the marines can look afraid all they want but do they ACT afraid? are they marshalling men and sending admirals to key revolutionary fortresses?
are they freaking out about ivankov and saying "oh commander of the revs, must be an unstoppable monster" or "dont kill ivankov or dragon will murderise us".
even fodder marines want to kill ivankov.

and gorosei this whole time is just like "mmm...dragon...hes messing with us...probably should do something about that...make him most wanted man..."
and this was 12 fukin years ago and nothing has changed. the marines are still focusing all their power to take on whitebeard and leaving nothing guarding the borders. NOTHING.
dragon could have walked right in!
that tells me that WB pirates were the big shiz, and marines were like "holy shiznit we must pool everything we've got. i know we have an openly hostile enemy in our backs conquering our shit but WHITEBEARD MAN. WHITEBEARD".

rld. Even though Luffy has been building up his reputation, he's not really shit. He's still a rookie. The government can freely kill him whenever because of that.
but again. wouldnt luffys capture be like top thing for issho? shouldnt issho be the same "dragon is evil" person as the other marines? instead its like issho doesn't even care.
no marine even cares. when luffy showed back up, they only sent sento goddamn maru to take him out.
they dont care!

but with ace, they couldnt touch him cos of whitebeard's protection and when they could they risked an all out war just to kill the man and end roger's legacy. but here its like dragon has no legacy. hes out there...and no marine cares. theres no buster calls. theres no pacifista raids..
and its been 12 years. if dragon was a powerhouse he would have gotten somewhere by now.

Ivankov wanted to be in jail. He could have staged an escape at any time, and he chose not to until Luffy came along.
nonsense. he was captured, but mysteriously escaped his cell. maybe he wanted to stay there but he was of no use as a spy, and he didnt intend to be captured. for all he knew, their intent was execution.

Dragon is doing covert warfare right now. In one of his appearance, someone reported to him that another kingdom belonging to the WG has fallen to the Revolutionaries, showing that whatever he's doing is working according to how he wants it to work.
conquering kingdoms is all out full scale war.
its only not been a hard fight because marines are otherwise occupied.
and if he knows that, and thinks they wont send strong forces, then whats he doing fuking around in the ass end of nowhere? if this continues much longer, the govt will just take those territories back with endless pacifista armies that they are probably building under akainu's direction.
the time for beating WG has long past, as i said, and now this war of atrition vs an absurdly powerful military that has nigh endless resources, is mere suicide. as ive said.
only thing giving dragon a chance is maybe some major battle where blackbeard or linlin or kaido or luffy weakens them and kills one or two admirals.
then he has a chance. maybe. possibly.
He's considered the most wanted and dangerous man, in a world where Rayleigh, Whitebeard and Shanks are alive and kicking. You're underestimating Dragon so hard, it's sad.
no he isnt. hes considered irrelevant and weak considering they have acted like hes irrelevant and weak.
shanks and rayleigh are just boozing and minding their own business. dragon is actively attacking and killing marines and destroying shit, intent on overthrowing everyone and plunging the entire world into a chaotci full scale war.
but as i said, victorys not possible, his army is too weak, and if he was gonna win he would have done it by now.
revolutions dont involve long wars of attrition and troop movements, and conquering of irrelevant provinces. he has no idea what hes doing, no idea how ot fight a war vs a nearly invincible and pissed off empire with inexhaustible resources that hes doing nothign to sabotage given sabo's dogshit irrelevant mission.
how can he win? he cant.
hes killed all his men alreayd. they just blindly follow him, out of some hope they might get out of this.
but they cant and wont. they wil be butchered.

adn no one called him most dangerous. stop saying that. hes not. he doesnt behave like he is and no one else does. WB was a commanding and powerful presence as is red hair.
dragon is just that guy who has an army and might be a threat to their authority.
its only propaganda that makes marines fear this idiot.
they have all these fuking guys.
they have garp they have mihawk.

at best, dragon's a match for garp or kong.
AT BEST.
but that still leaves everyone and everything else!
how can dragon do this when his second best fighter is sabo, who was only barely holding off isho whos not even all that powerful?
the WG have 4 legends (garp, kong, sengoku, mihawk). they have another 4 very very strong guys (akainu and admirals).
and all the VAs.
do you think any number of irrelevant fodder revs is a threat to vice admiral smoker? he could solo a thousand just on his own. dragon just launched a sucide mission and he fuking knows it.


Relative peace? The Tenryubito have slaves. Entire towns are destroyed by them. Millions of people in the One Piece world suffer because of the rule. There's also constant fighting, rampant poverty and disease, and plain injustice everywhere. Do you even read this manga?
theres constant fighting and bullshit because of PIRATES. you know...the actual cruel mass raping mass murdering sadistic monsters of this series?
maybe the celestials are bad.
ok.
assassinate them!
why this world war?
do you know anything about war?
the worst peace is preferable to the best war.
war means more murder, more suffering, more rape, more poverty, more destruction, more economic suffering because of blocked off trade routes, and general misery and death and shooting and killing!
and dragon wants to launch a worldwide version of that because right now, thats the only way hes gonna reach the gorosei and defeat them.
by running a horrific gauntlet of fortresses and row upon row of marines.

a revolution is a civil war. most long wars are between two already very powerful sides who can industrialise their weapons and supply lines. this is one guy with a tiny army spread out in the middle of nowhere conquering irrelevant places one by one and HOPING TO GOD no one in govt sends someone strong to fight them.
this went on for 12 years. and theyve gotten nowhere.
most revolutions and coups are over as quickly as possible because neither side would want a long war of attrition. its about taking the capital and the leader out.

no one said that. most wanted doesnt mean dangerous. im sure blackbeards the current most dangerous anyway due to gura gura.

trash


powerless tiny army thats gotten nothing done after 12 years of all out war

meaningless

meaningless. are you saying garp's wife or luffys mother is some OD badass? because we would have heard about her by now. was kushina top tier? was goku's father top tier? was supermans father top tier?

you have no proof he trained sabo. sure its somewhat implied but never stated. so without proof your jus...

...
if you want to think that Dragon is weak that's ok with me just don't expect anyone to agree with you, we'll simply wait until Oda proves you wrong
