Whitebeard, Sengoku, and possibly Garp.
Yes, and shockingly, the guy recently collects a lot of positive impressions. Dear god of the mods, haven't you had any concern about multiple identities? Isn't occupying multiple bodies with a single soul a definite no in the world of spirits? |

Well technically, both Luffy and Marco would now count as pawns for Whitebeard, would they not? And speaking of Sengoku and Garp, I'm still expecting to see either one of those guys in action soon, particularly Sengoku. I know that he's a great strategist and all, but I highly doubt that he rose to the top of the marines with great tactical abilities alone. I'm sure that he has the strength to back up his position as fleet admiral (after all, the 3 admirals certainly have the strength to back up THEIR status, do they not?). I still think that it would be most fitting if whatever fighting ability he has is related to his Buddha nickname (I had previously mentioned the possibility of a karma-based DF power, which has the potential to be a very devastating ability, IMO)...... As for Garp, I still sorta have the feeling that he's a powerful Haki user, though I really don't want to jump to that conclusion straight away (he may very well turn out to be a DF user, as well). Still, the fact that he was able to damage Luffy with his "fist of love" was a pretty strong hint for me, right there..... |

Wow, this little battle is still called a "war". If this is a "war" than WTF should the wars of the real world be called? The Apocalypse? If the marines were serious about this, than why aren't they using all their resources? Those robot Kumas do seem to be mass producible, so why not fight smarter instead of harder?
Oh, Phenomenal don't let that James dude get to you. Not everyone can be a deep thinker/critical thinker, and go into great depth analysis, or close their mouth and open up their mind to see and understand what there is to offer, or try to see what another is trying to say but rather they're stuck in their own mindset. But yeah, if WB is the one actually leading this operation, it would be quite bad if he were at the very front of the line. If the leader goes down, or his ability to lead is significantly impaired, than the battle is practically lost. It's like PVP. If the leader goes down, thing become disorganized and teammates begin to get picked off and drop like flies. A leader should always make it a priority to stay alive to lead and for the sake of the team. Oh, and most of you guys are trolls. So what's the point of trying to claim or make it seem like Phenomenal is the only troll? |

If your going call people a troll have something to back it up. Plus the numbers begin used in this war are good amount . 100 000 plus on a battle filed this size is a good amount . I think Phenomenal can't get threw his head luffy might not be the strongest person in this War but he far from fodder. I mean who on the marines side can beat luffy at most you can say about 25 members. There are a lot of people in this war your not going to see what all of them are doing every chapter . Every chapter you can't see what 3 admirals plus warlords plus WB and his top men are doing it would take forever . So far the war has been about 6 chapter and you expect to see WB rush in and attack ? Last edited by andy; 2009-09-26 at 02:46. |

The on going battles/conflicts between Marines and Pirates for numerous years = war.
A conflict/battle (be it of whatever size in number) which occurs and last within the range of day's' = battle not war. A battle is part of a war; a war consist of numerous battles. oh, check a person's post count and compare it with how long they've been a member, then determine for yourself whether or not they're a troll. ANYWAYS, I've been enjoying this last few chapters of one piece and I hope to keep enjoying them. So lets not make a big deal or little stuff and ruin my enjoyment ~_~ |

I was actually thinking, it will be WB who will act as the pawn for Luffy and Ace to save the lives of the next generation...Repeating what Shanks had done for Luffy. Will that be a surprise? No, not after what Sengoku told about what he thought WB was doing by keeping Ace close to him. WB is already playing his role and he will be successful as long as he saves Ace, even if he dies (and probably he will).

Look, I know you're a Whitebeard fan, and I know you're disappointed that your favorite character is not getting the heroic screentime you wanted him to, but face it, this entire saving Ace arc has always been about Luffy saving Ace. Which they are. In case you hadn't noticed there's a huge army of pirates fighting a huge army of marines. Quote:

Using Rambo as a comparison makes me laugh. Haven't played any MGS beyond 2, which was lacking any large scale wars, so I can't comment here. Quote:

I'm a bad man with a harsh mouth and has a tendency to pick fight, therefore, I cleaned up the post O_O!
I kind of want to see Luffy like do gear 4th or something. Right now he's strong, but he hasn't grown really after rescuing Robin. His strength is within the range of Vice-admiral and Admiral. What else can rubber do this is cool or powerful? Last edited by ThoHell; 2009-09-26 at 03:39. |

Honestly, more than anything, it sounds like you want Whitebeard to act like Luffy, which is a little weird considering your annoying bias against Luffy. Quote:
Secondly, and to reiterate the point, again with the knocks against Oars? His seemingly effortless defeat was not meant to show him as being weak (fodder, as you endlessly say but have no way of backing up), but rather to show just how powerful the Big Dogs are. Consequently, his defeat is supposed to show the audience just why Whitebeard doesn't simply charge forward (as you are endlessly whining for): if Whitebeard were to recklessly attack, then he would end up exactly like Oars.

So we see Luffy charge in with backup. You have any better idea? Having luffy hiding in a corner and cheer for Whitebeard? Quote:

You go on with your "yan ayan" again about Whitebeard should jump in. Tell me what should happen after that, and how can a mangaka possibly draw a good action scence out of that. |

Unlike other times, they can't afford to get locked into one-on-one battles... their are so many enemies around that if they try to focus on one enemy they may get stabbed in the back by another... they can't do much more than exchange a few blows before they need to watch what's going on around them... Kinda like Kizaru... one second he's exchanging blows with Marco, the next he switches gears to ordering the giants into action.... ignoring the cannon fodder is the stupidest thing they can do as they never know who amongst the cannon fodder may have a real chance of hurting them... Jozu for instance COULD charge in with his diamond form to fight Mihawk and just ignore the cannon fodder as their attacks bounce off him... but just as Mihawk launches one of his powerful sword slashes, a marine captain strikes Jozu with a seastone staff... And thus Jozu finds himself taking heavy damage because he ignored the small fries Quote:
He froze the tidal waves, attacked whitebeard with ice spears, got shattered, and two panels later he reforms near the water to freeze the entire bay... Since Ao kiji's element is more solid than other logia's he can't phase through attacks and thus shatters instead, and it takes him a second or two to reform... what happened with whitebeard was the same as what happened with Robin and Luffy Second off, i don't recall seeing Kizaru take a quake smack from Whitebeard... his first attack was blocked by Macro and then battle with him... Don't recall whitebeard giving him a smack... hell if he did it apparently didn't hurt much as he seems to still be unhurt Quote:
And it's funny you should call Oars jr. retarded... cause the way i see it, the most retarded thing i saw him do was charge forward... your saying that Whitebeard should do what a "retarded monster" would do in this situation. Frankly, i consider Whitebeard to be smarter than that Quote:
Frankly, considering how this battle is gonna send a ripple throughout the world, bringing about massive changes; calling it anything less than a war seems insufficient... it may be just one battle, but the results will bring about as much change as the results of a war. |
