Borsalino, more commonly known by his alias Kizaru, is an Admiralin the Marines.
He was first mentioned by Robin during the initial encounter with Aokiji. Because of his actions, Kizaru can be considered the secondary antagonist of the Sabaody Archipelago Arc.
Kizaru definately stand quiet tall at One piece Toptier list.
Ironically he's actually very tall in height.
My main purpose of this thread is to prove Kizaru isn't that overpowered has most people say.
Kizaru main ability comes from a Devil Fruit.
(Pika Pika no mi).
With this fruit, he's said to move at the speed of light.
Which in reality makes him unstoppable.
But I'm gonna point out his flaws & weakness of this ability.
Happy Reading.
First of all, I don't think people really understand what "the speed of light" means.
Because if Kizaru could move and attack at the speed of light, he could kill every living thing on that planet in an afternoon.
If he picks a destination from where he currently is, he can move there at the speed of light. Otherwise, he moves as light.
And when he's powering up attacks, he uses that speed to accelerate his foot.
But at no point has he ever attacked, touched or moved someone at the speed of light. You know how we know that? Because they didn't burst into a fine red mist.
Physics wise, When he moves from point A to point B at light speed,
he stops being solid and becomes light.
He then re-forms at point B to become solid again.
As much as you younger folk seem to hate it, physics still does come into play in worlds created by authors. They change laws of physics when they want,
but if they haven't then they are assumed to still be in play.
For example, humans being able to pick up hammers weighing a ton, swordsmen wielding one-handed swords weighing a hundred+ pounds each. These things are impossible in our world, and yet are unimpressive in the One Piece world.
That being said, gravity, physics, inertia, they all still work in One Piece unless stated otherwise.
It's called hyperbole. It sounds flashy, and it should...but the only time he moves at light-speed is when he activates an ability to transport to a desired location. And even then I'm only giving way on that to throw his fans a bone. And at no point is he able to physically impact someone while he's in light-form. For reasons already stated.
I've been educating people about this for over a year now. The fastest characters of One Piece are supersonic, and they can react to Kizaru just fine. Whitebeard was annoyed by the brightness of Kizaru's attack long before it reached him. Marco was able to intercept him and fight fairly equally. Rayleigh was able to match his swordplay - these people can not move faster than the supersonic levels we're accustomed to, and neither can Kizaru.
I admit He's fast, one of the fastest, and the speed of his DF may very well aid him in that...but it isn't even scratching the surface of light-speed.
Hope y'all enjoyed reading.
