One Piece Discussion?

[Jory]

I don't even know if this can be here, but this thread is to talk about One Piece. I've found that a lot of people here watch it, so I'll start off with a question.

Do you think Luffy is capable of taking down Kaido with Law's help?

[Phoenix]

I don't think Luffy will ever lose a fight

[Joker]

It's hard to tell at this point, really. I mean, we don't know much about Kaido except that he's a Yonko, which already warrants his capabilities... But even so, we still can't tell what level he is on compared to Luffy or Law. We still haven't seen Luffy's true power post time skip either. He never really went all out against Hody Jones or Caesar Clown. Law is a little different though, he beat Smoker rather easily, so it's safe to say that he's drastically more powerful than he was pre time skip, and he's even one of the Seven Warlords. However, he was roughed up a ton by Vergo, and I would like to believe that Kaido is tons stronger than him. Going off of that, it's safe to assume that Kaido could beat Law. So for them to have a shot, Luffy would have to be near Yonko level in terms of strength... which, I don't really think he is at this point. Don't get me wrong, he's a lot stronger now, but I just don't think he's quite near Yonko level yet.

Tl;dr Even if they combined strength, I still think Kaido would win.

That's an interesting point. Seeing as I refuse to read the manga (I've watched 589 episodes. Not gonna spoil it for myself now), I wouldn't know about Vergo. I think that until we know more about Kaido in terms of his personal strength it's hard to tell. He could be as powerful as Shanks, but I rather doubt that anyone will surpass Shanks until Luffy does. As you said, we haven't seen Luffy go all-out yet post-timeskip. We do have to remember that he was trained by possibly the most powerful pirate in the One Piece universe who is still alive (we haven't seen anyone command Haki as well as Rayleigh, even Shanks) there's a lot we just don't know.

Tl;dr I just want to talk about One Piece.

[Joker]

Oh, there is no way Kaido is stronger than Shanks. I'd say Kaido is actually the weakest of the Yonko. But that's just me guessing because they're going after him first.

Anyway, this is a One Piece discussion. It doesn't have to be all about Kaido. So I will ask this, and do keep in mind this question will contain slight SPOILERS, so don't read if you don't want to be spoiled. Anyway,

Who do you think will get Ace's devil fruit? Personally, I think it will be Sanji, if it's a crew member, since he uses fire when he kicks. But that's just my best guess at the moment.

[Cyrus]

Blackbeard > Shanks > Big Mom > Kaido

I think Kaido will equal Luffy at full power. So a fight to a draw or Luffy winning due to PLOT ARMOR will be something.

But I think they'll probably have it be Coby or something since they have been making the kid end up being Luffy's own Garp to his Roger.

[Jory]

Back to Renzo's question, I really don't think it can be one of Luffy's crew members because that would be too painful for Luffy to remember. I highly doubt that any of Luffy's crew will acquire Devil Fruits because they're OP as hell as it is.

And how would they go about getting the Fruit? I don't care if you spoil, but I haven't gotten to that yet.
