Jesus Christ, all of this is just so... unnecessary. The worst part of this development is that it retroactively ruins pre-timeskip One Piece too. Telling us Luffy was the mythical Sun God all along just turns One Piece into a completely different manga, it's impossible to read the old chapters again and just ignore this information.

Luffy isn't the mythical sun god no more than marco is a pheonix or Sengoku is the Budha, retard. Stop shitposting.
>instead of the rubber fruit he has the rubber man fruit

He is literally awakened zoan and nothing more

is this OP's rubber nen moment? will this forever change the landscape of Any Forums shounen battleground?
Didn't Rauf
Chapter was pure garbage. Glad to know the will of his fruit is what caused him to be a charismatic freedom seeking person! I'm so glad I got to learn about Luffy aka Nika's rubber fleshsuit.
You: “Making things up on the spot is BAD because it RUINS THE CANON with PLOT HOLES.”
Regular people: *hooting and hollering, becoming Joy Boy themselves* “Oda makes up some great shit that’s super fun and has thematic resonance behind it, hell yeah.”

Doom dut da da
I don't think that Luffy having a special fruit really ruins things. To be fair, he was already stupidly special as this copypasta points out the fruit having weird toon powers doesn't change things much. Also, it's clear that the god Nika doesn't actually exist, it's a legend that came to be because of the fruit, no one is the god nika but the powers attributed to him are the ones from the awakened Gomu Gomu, plus some extra symbolic shit like being the sun god. As said, Sengoku isn't the Buddha either.
i don't understand how people aren't getting this. It's not even that deep of understanding.
This but unironically
>will this forever change the landscape of Any Forums shounen battleground?
Yeah he's a toon force character now
nice speedreading bro
The only thing that bothers me is making up some god to name the fruit, it could very well just have been the hito hito model: cartoon and Oda wouldn't have had to hastily introduce a sun god legend.
Go back to your hiatusXhiatus thread bro
So he beats Goku?
But I meant it unironically
holy shit lol
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
If the Nika fruit has a will of its own and had escaped the WG for centuries, then clearly it chose Luffy as a vessel because of his own preexistent qualities.
What pisses me off is why is luffys fruit the ONLY mythical zoan.
WHY ARENT ALL PARAMECIA MYTHICAL ZOANS.
The difference i see is that there are elemental zoans which have the 2 forms (human and element). paramecia have 1 form (changed body). animal zoan have 3. easy
Like wtf according to that logic every paramecia is a zoan and i read this shit 100 times can't wrap my head around the differences now.
it literally gives him a paramecia type power.
Mythical zoans usually change the body in more ways than just giving it 1 attribute.
What is nika based on? i can't find a good source so i assume he just becomes rubbery which isnt zoan like thus every paramecia is a zoan
Kaido bros.. Why is he s-s-scared?
I think that, with this reveal, Oda beat Togashi in terms of subverting the Super Saiyan moment.
>the gorosei have been terrified of this particular Devil Fruit for 800 years
>"h-he isn't the sun god stop shitposting"
Kill yourself you shit-eating Odadrone
Luffy was the Sun God all along. His fruit was dormant but had its own will, there was an influence over everything he did.
Could explain was he was in trouble against Moria (shadow) and didn't do shit against Teach (darkness); as his fruit opposed to these powers.
Could explain why he fought so good by the side of his brother (Fire); as his fruit grew stronger near it.
This really makes one reconsider the whole reading.
>i read this shit 100 times can't wrap my head around the differences now
There is none
Simple as
If you don't know shit about the nine tailed fox, you could assume that the nine tails fox fruit is just a shapeshifting Paramecia.
Honestly, it could be possible that since Luffy is such a kid, his imagination is that of a rubber man and so that's what his abilities are.
I'm sorry. What the heck did I miss? Is Luffy a legit god now or something?
nika is a made up god you fucking idiots.
that means his powerset is whatever the fuck oda wants AKA a walking asspull
Yes, they were afraid of the fruit itself, not the mythical god. The last guy that ate that fruit made quite a mess.
Cope. Chapter admits
>Zoan fruits have a will of their own
>Users of the Nika are known as warriors of liberation who put smiles on peoples faces
It just so happens everyone who ate the fruit is exactly like Luffy? No, it's that everyone who eats it turns into Form of Nika: Happy Freedom Seeker man.
Yup so Luffy's the chosen one by the fruit to be the sun god's rubber fleshsuit just like I said.
i don't want to be negative but the only thing that pisses me off is that it's a zoan for no reason.
he could have even called it the fucking toon toon no mi and it would be more logical because then it would still be a run of the mill paramecia. i know there are outliers but this is so far the biggest.
Before his fruit turned him into a rubber man
But it turns out his fruit actually turned him into a man out of rubber
That's your headcanon
Luffy eat the fruit because he was hungry
It was never intended for him
Why do I get the sinking feeling the ope ope no mi really us named something else
Nika is rubber warrior from the void century, maybe mythical zoans are just people turned into fruits
Are these fuckers for real? What is the explanation for not going after early Luffy with overwhelming force when the Gomu fruit was THAT high a priority for them???
So they aren't afraid of the god, but the fruit that gives a person all the same abilities as said God.
Retard.
Nah. It's implied that it's a fruit and last user of it who awakened it was from 800+ years ago. If there ever was a real Nika "God" he is probably long before that.
I still think that "mythical" zoans are man made, the entities they represented didn't actually exist.
but in that case luffy could just imagine himself with a punch that is so strong kaido instantly vaporizes and he will become undefeatable and there are no stakes anymore. like this would create even bigger loopholes.
>It just so happens everyone who ate the fruit is exactly like Luffy? No, it's that everyone who eats it turns into Form of Nika: Happy Freedom Seeker man.
I interpreted it a bit differently
Only someone LIKE Luffy could use the fruit as intended
Based
>Tfw edgepiece is over and we are finally back on track to getting the good ending where every single character in the series has a big party together (heroes and villains alike)
One-for-All no Mi lmaooo
I think Nika/Joyboy and the Makami have some short of connection and thats why Kaido wanted it, and just like the Nika fruit the Makami escaped from an evil person and was eaten by a random kid, plus they both have that divine ring around then
have sex
Wano is heavily connected to the void century and Joy Boy, so probably.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm back in. I have been away from OP since the timeskip started but fuck it, I'm coming back now.
but marco is a phoenix. the same way catherina devon is a nine-tailed fox and orochi is a yamata no orochi
sengoku didn't eat the buddha df, he ate the buddha statue df. different things.
This is so bad on so many levels that I wouldn't even know where to start. Maybe with how even the shittiest fan theories are better and more creative than that (resin theory for one. Or maybe also with how it's completely nonsensical how the world government actually tries to get the rubber fruit for 800 years but couldn't throw a single admiral at Luffy in all the years. But I guess the CP0, the most powerful intelligence organization in the world, being at a loss as to why the Whitebeard pirates are friends with Luffy already implied that the world of One Piece has a 110-IQ scaling.
One SH after another suddenly being declared a superhuman, a reincarnation of a legendary samurai or now a god in such close proximity and after 1000 chapters is borderline terrible writing and can only be defended by low-IQ autists.
you clowns are taking the god part way too literally, as if the Celestial Dragons haven't been wanking themselves off as "gods" for centuries. Same shit with Enel, hell the ancient weapons are named after gods as well, is Shirahoshi suddenly a diety? No, it's a title.
I like the twist, it has completely in earnest saved the series and redeemed this fucking slog of an arc. My only worry now is that with toonforce comes the potential that Luffy is now literally omnipotent. As you drag out any series you draw infinitely closer to introducing time travel as a major plot point, and time travel is already a minor plot point in this series.
Yes, Nika evem has the same fire hair that Hyogoro, the makami and the animals of Wano have
I hated the early spoilers that said Luffy was a mythical zoan, but the full explanation I can dig and I like the twist.
We will know that Luffy has truly obtained toon powers if he can now walk into the air and only start falling when he bothers to look down and realize he's not on solid ground.
My headcanon:
Nika chooses Luffy to hide into him and for all of this time it's been a parasite soul inside of luffy body. Awakening freed Nika and his powers, but Luffy is still stronger than the fruit
It's seems more like the fruit chooses those who are chaotic.
> hastily introduce a sun god legend
> Hastily introduce a god legend that was introduced 20 years
>just so happens everyone who ate the fruit is exactly like Luffy
Yes because the fruit has a will of their own and chooses who they want to eat them. The fruit chose Luffy because of who he was.
This was defintely planned
Absolute kino
Stop trying to force this you Yamato fag
Why is nobody talking about HOW he suddenly got this power. Ok so he ate the super special magical fruit that has the POTENTIAL to reach this form. But WHY did he suddenly transform the moment he was defeated and close to death? Does the fruit just automatically do that when you are close to death? But Luffy was close to death many times before and this shit never happened, so what the fuck is going on? Why is he instantly healed of all the damage Kaido inflicted on him and has more power than ever before? Why does he all of a sudden have an understanding of all his new powers and can use them effortlessly despite just achieving this form?
It is like he magically knew he can now turn his environment into rubber without being surprised by it at all.
But what is it supposed to be based on?
Like why make a random mythical zoan which is almost like ALL paramecias but no sike it has a secret form. How come that all zoans now they can transform except luffy?
The point is if you say that he couldn't know its a zoan how come other zoans know they are zoans without prior knowledge?
Thats just possesion with extra steps
So it's like the One Ring where it filled itself into Luffy's hands. So Shanks bringing the fruit to the east blue and Roo putting it on the table was the fruit's aura basically willing them to bring it to Luffy: Next Son of the Sun?
This chapter proved that mythical zoans have awakenings. This was previously disputed.
So shouldn't Kaido use his next?
The One Piece is a time machine
Luffy is Nika/Joyboy because he exists in a stable time loop
His Devil Fruit is a mythical zoan of himself
You are definitely a braindead fanboy
Maybe it's like Super Saiyan where before Goten and Kid Trunks kinda ruined it, it seemed like you had to possess a certain level of strength before you could obtain the form even if you met all the other requirements
Maybe he'll do a golden frieza and be back to his regular self in a couple chapters. After smashing Kaido of course.
If you dont have an argument then just seethe in silence
Maybe that's just how Zoan fruits awaken, letting whatever will is inside the fruit come to the surface? Would explain why Kaido is so desperate to die.
