Could Luffy Beat All The Espada?

Could Luffy Beat all The Espada? In this video, we go over Luffy VS The Classic Espada (Aaroniero, Szayell, Zommari, Grimmjow, Nnoitra, Ulquiorra, Harribel, Barrigan, Starrk, and Yammy) using Using Luffy's Gear 5 power up. Who wins? And how strong is Luffy compared to Aizen 's Espada from Bleach?
Bleach Vs One Piece matchups aren't ever talked about enough to me. So in this TUCKALMIGHTY video? We'll be asking if Luffy & his new Bajrang Gun, could take on Bleach Verse. Or If Luffy would be lucky to make it out of Grimmjow vs ichigo alive.

​@@TUCKALMIGHTYdude you starting to get kind of annoying just a little bit stop using the word scale just break down the stats and Arsenal damn stop

[@jairacosta3804]

Btw one thing you got wrong with the vid is the barragon didn’t get killed by soi fongs bankai, the explosion didn’t hurt him even when it was focused into a confined space, what killed him was his own power when hachi teleported his blighted arm into barragans body just fyi

[@bineetroy4581]

I mean, the espada's attack the soul directly, which Luffy doesn't have resistance to and wouldn't be able to see them, so those are massive handicaps to deal with.

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

You could argue the Espada’s attack the soul, but by the same token. You could just argue Haki would mitigate said soul damage (due to things like Brook/Big Mom’s Fruits.) He should also be able to see them- since regular humans with minor spiritual pressure, like Ichigo’s sister- can 100% see them, and they do still have physical bodies like hollows- since Chad could hit them with his bare hands pre power up. (Meaning Luffy should detect their physical form with Future sight.)

[@thelonecyborg3555]

That whitebeard vivre card you showed is a fan translation, same thing happened with Mihawk his vivre states that he's most skilled and then the actual translation just flat out says he's the strongest swordsman in the world

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

I have no clue if it’s a mistranslation or not. But there’s also things such as the editors notes, and lack of feats. Which support the notion that One Piece isn’t planet level. Yet. But I do think Mihawk is the strongest swordsman in the OP world. If that helps.

[@thelonecyborg3555]

@@TUCKALMIGHTY I'm just saying don't just go based off what the vivre card says because they can be wrong sometimes, just like naruto databooks, but honestly even if we take that vivre statment as face value that doesn't mean whitebeard isn't planetary it would just mean he's not strong enough to destroy the one piece planet which everyone knows is significantly bigger than our own, regardless I still agree with the outcome of the video keep up the good work

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

I agree 100% that you can’t go purely off of databooks or outside material. Naruto is a terrible offender for it especially. I only use the vivre card statement, as a way of explaining my thoughts through canon material. Since WB (and the other Yonko) lack a lot of solid AP feats. As for the OP planet being really big argument? I’m actually on the other side of that. Since? Oda himself hasn’t come out, and suggested anything like that. Most of the evidence (like 20 mil islands, or the big river in alabasta.) Can just as easily be explained by both artistic liberties, and the surface of the One Piece world being entirely islands. As there is only one continent. And even at that? Enel and the cover stories imply that there is only one moon as well. So I’m definitely not saying it couldn’t be bigger. But until we get evidence (besides fan calcs. Which are even less reliable than vivre cards.) I feel like we shouldn’t assume it’s big enough to make that kind of difference. Since regular humans live on the planet and what not. Even saying that though. Planet level is a fine highball for OP, depending on how critically you look at statements and stuff.

[@nmashie17]

⁠@@TUCKALMIGHTYit’s a fan translation and he add his own opinions into it a lot. Also wanna mention that in the ace novel it verbatim say wb can destroy the planet (Itself), so wb is definitely planetary if not more.

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

For your first point. The editor still has to run the vivre cards by Oda, even if they’re not always entirely right. Which still makes them officially licensed, canon material. Fan translation adds a layer of uncertainty, but I use Mutli-Continental due to a lack of feats, clear power cliffing, or statements to the contrary. And It’s been awhile since I read the Ace novel or it’s manga adaption. But unless WB said something along the lines of “I’ll erase the entire planet from existence.” Or maybe didn’t use “Sekai” in the original. Then he could easily just be referring to his hyperbolic title.

[@deiviswst6661]

Espada 0 gets stronger the more you piss him off luffy won't 1 shot him meaning he would just outgrow luffy in power... Baran would kill luffy the moment he gets close to him....

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

Number 0 could be a problem. If you think Yammy is more resistant to organ damage than Ulquiorra. But we have no reason to believe that. So? Luffy attacks his organs- and is too quick to get tagged. Basically beating him like the captains did. As for Baragan. Luffy has ACoC? Which allows him to hit things without touching them. Rendering Baragan’s power much less effective.

[@limbo9993]

W Take, I pretty much agree with everything here. I think the only way the Espada win is if you scale Ulquiorra to Vasto Lorde and say that she should be like Small Planet Level, which tbf is kind of reasonable as Ichigo didn't like immediately obliterate him. That only works if you put Ichigo attention Planetary tho. There's also the novels which say that Grimmjow can destroy a star but the statement itself is pretty shaky so I personally don't think it's valid. The only other way they win is if you think that Haki is willpower and has no spiritual defenses at all, and if so then they all one-shot with Soul Hax. But even then I think that's kind of disingenuous, as Big Mom has Soul Hax which can be resisted through Haki anyway. I feel that with the most consistent interpretations for both, Luffy wins the 1v1 but probably loses the 1v10 imo - just due to the ridiculous AOE, Hax, and the power of jumping him lol. Great video, and again, thanks for using my suggestion!

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the video! And yes. I think you could maybe squint at the Ulquiorra scale- and hype him up to some ridiculous. But? Keep in mind. Fully healthy, max power Ulquiorra- was loosing to injured, half power, mindless vasto lorde- while never managing to do anything significant to it. By comparison. This half powered Ichigo literally caught Ulquiorra’s strongest 10x amp attack with his bare hand. Then stepped on him lol. So even if that Ichigo is planet level. I think you could easily say Ulquiorra doesn’t scale to him. As for grimmjow with stars. I’m pretty sure that’s after the timeskip, where got a lot stronger. And yeah- novels are inconsistent often times. Especially in bleach. But yeah. If you think Haki (or raw stats) somehow don’t match up against spiritual attacks. Or Ulquiorra is some planet level monster. Then they’d likely win! And with more consistent interpretations. I obviously think Luffy takes it 1v1. And only beats the team if they mess around too much. If not, yeah, he’s getting jumped. 💀 And again, I’m glad you liked the video! I hope we can do lots more like this!

[@limbo9993]

@@TUCKALMIGHTY I'm excited for more! And yeah the Grimmjow statement in the novels is about him Post TYBW I think, so if you only use his time in the Espada Organization then it shouldn't apply imo.

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

Always glad to hear it! Hopefully we can keep the good ideas coming. And figure out what’s killing the views on our channel lol. But yeah. Post timeskip grimmjow gets pretty insane if I recall correctly. He might actually take Luffy. (Depending on how you interpret his strength during the Blood War.)

[@emperorluffy6001]

Minor disagreements I have: 1.) The vivire cards didn't imply the WB statements were hyperbolic. Thats the translator giving his own opinion. 2.) Luffy didn't dodge the lasers with precognition. Thats baseless. The scene indicates that they were simply too slow to hit Luffy. No precog needed. Other than that I'll accept this take. Even though Luffy soloing the Espada was something being debated about years before Gear 5 but it's whatevz. lol.

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

Glad to see you didn’t disagree with the video! As for my thoughts. 1.) The Vivre card basically say- the “Man who can destroy the world” title, is not solely based on power. It’s also simply a piece of supporting evidence, for my thoughts. Since I find there to be a lack of feats/statements for Planet+ One Piece. 2.) Luffy dodged the lasers with precog. Rayleigh makes three different statements about needing Haki to dodge light. Light blitzed Luffy PTS. And the narrative purpose of the scene, was to show off his new observation Haki imbued speed. There’s also no reason to assume? That he wouldn’t be using it, since he has it. But, yeah. I think since Luffy got ACoC. He 100% surpassed the Espada, with no effective counter arguments. With a quick google search. That would be 05/12/21. Which was Two years & Five months ago. So I’d say it checks out. Lol. Like I mentioned in the pinned comment, this was a fan suggested video. And I feel that people downplay One Piece way more than Bleach sometimes. So, we made an easy matchup for Luffy.

[@emperorluffy6001]

@@TUCKALMIGHTY The thing in parenthesis is the translator talking. Thats his opinion. He's just saying he "thinks" it doesn't necessarily have to do with power because of the way it's worded in japanese but the manga suggests otherwise. 2.) Luffy objectively did not dodge the lasers with precog. Not only is this never stated or implied but in the canon Manga Rayleigh has said literally NOTHING about using Haki to dodge Lightspeed. The only mention of it was in a noncanon TV special. Which for obvious reasons isn't proof of anything. The rest I agree with.

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

1.) Yes, it’s just the translator + the One Piece editor giving their opinion on the claim in Vivre card. This on its own is not enough for anything. But due to the combination, of no planet level feats- and at least some sources/logical explanations that define WB’s quake power as being natural disasters (multi-continental). It’s not really fair to throw out this one piece of supporting argument? When it doesn’t contradict much. 2.) Implying he objectively did not use Observation Haki to dodge would imply someone said- that he did it without Haki. This is not the case. However? It IS stated, that you need Haki to dodge fast attacks in the manga (elaborated to be referring to light speed, in the Oda approved 3D2Y film. And implied in the manga, as it’s the next step up.) As well as this narratively being the first moment for Luffy to show off his new post time skip growth. Which is why he says “too slow” in reference to when Kizaru was too fast, blitzed him in the war, and called him “..too slow.” Honestly? Just due to Occam's razor (suggesting the simplest outcome, is most likely.) Why would Luffy have any reason to hold back a passive ability. It would be like saying Katakuri wasn’t using Future Sight all the times that people aren’t directly saying/showing that he is. Like? What reason would he not have to. Even ignoring the narrative reasons why Haki here makes sense.

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

I may, if this video ends up getting more hype. Luffy vs Sternwritters is definitely interesting.

[@Ultra-UG]

why would sengoku use hyperbole when all it would do is scare his men he would have no reason to hyperbolize that

[@ginnungagapabyss5639]

Wouldn’t Szayelaporro just possess Luffy or whatever he did to take control over the body of his victims. Or just destroy his organs.

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

I didn't get to go over this as much as I wanted to in the video. But Luffy (and other characters on his tier like Whitebeard) are pretty consistently shown to be able to survive organ damage. With Luffy himself having a magma punch thrown through his guts as an example. Szayelaporro could definitely pose a threat though? If he had any higher stats. As the second weakest espada, who got folded by PTS Renji, Uryu, and then one tapped by a captain's Bankai. His only really good scaling, is spamming Gran Rey Cero? Which can only be highballed to Country level. So, most likely Szayelaporro does minor damage- and then get's oneshot by Gear 5. With Future sight hopefully helping Luffy to avoid anything too dangerous.

[@ginnungagapabyss5639]

@@TUCKALMIGHTY I was talking about crushing Luffy’s heart or brain, not destroying his liver or intestines, not too mention him have use his Rokureichū to analyze, and seal Luffy’s powers like how he sealed Renji’s bankai into a large room, prevented a Seele Schneider from causing any injury, and turned off Uryū's ability to use his Quincy Bow. He shut it off after he changed his clothes.

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

Then yeah? He may be entirely capable of offing Luffy by a method like that. Especially with his brain. Keep in mind though- this is all assuming Szayelaporro both- can catch Luffy? (Even with future sight, and better speed.) And assuming the Szayelaporro doesn’t screw around. If he can accomplish those things, he does have a single win condition. And sealing away something like Luffy’s DF or Haki? Would be a huge game changer. But again, he has to land it? And we aren’t sure what exactly he can and can’t seal. So my thoughts are basically, that Szayelaporro gets one punched by Gear 5 Luffy, but if Luffy goofs off- a lot? Szayelaporro does have a method which could theoretically unalive him. In some sort of one in a million gambit.

[@ginnungagapabyss5639]

@@TUCKALMIGHTY Szayelaporro has a variety of methods for analyzing an opponent's abilities, such as studying the damage done to their former opponents. Once having done so, Szayelaporro can nullify the effects of their abilities, making him virtually immune to their attacks. The most prominent use of this ability was when Dondochakka and Pesche revealed their most powerful technique, the Cero Sincrético, which Szayelaporro was able to easily disperse by analyzing its structure and Reiatsu. (So him just watching Luffy facing the others would become immune to his attacks, analyzing the energy, and abilities of the foe.) Carbon-Copy: He can unleash a massive amount of black liquid from his back. When droplets of the liquid touch an opponent, a copy of them is created that uses their own individual abilities against them. Since he fires such a vast amount of the liquid upwards, it is nearly impossible for his opponents to dodge or evade the attack. Szayelaporro occasionally alters these clones' appearances to make them more aesthetically pleasing. (So Luffy cannot dodge it) Possession: Should he be eaten, Szayelaporro's body liquefies and invades the nervous system of the one who consumed him, allowing him to assume complete control of their body. (I added this down because Luffy has a couple moments he would try to munch on foes) gaburieru: Szayelaporro's final ability allows him to be reborn if he is injured beyond repair by "impregnating" an enemy. When he has physical contact with the victim, he can implant a portion of himself inside their body. He then "devours" his way out of their body by absorbing all the fluids and chemicals of the victim, like an insect leaving a cocoon or husk. (All it takes is just the smallest amount of skin contact)

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

Yeah, I don’t disagree with your thoughts on his analysis abilities. They could be very lethal. But of course, in a cross verse situation. They have the pesky two problems of. What can he actually adapt to (is it just reiatsu? DF? Haki? Fighting style? No way of knowing for sure.) And the second problem, is that he’s never encountered someone like Luffy before. (Someone with no reiatsu, who has Haki+DF.) Meaning he’d likely have to understand those things first, before he can adapt a counter to them. Which of course, gives Luffy plenty of time to take him out before the Adaptation. As for his three copy/voodoo esc abilities. I’ll explain my thoughts like this. For carbon copy? Luffy not only has his awakening, which can manipulate almost any matter (most likely including the black liquid.) But also future sight- which means clones, are unlikely to ever be made in the first place. I actually do agree though, that Possesion is hilariously the most effective. Because Gear 5 does have an eating tendency. However I will say, Luffy is immune to certain toxins? So, never can fully rule out his resistances. As for the final point though? If he gets one shot by Advanced Colors of The conquerors, or just Ryou Haki? Skin won’t ever make contact. And? In a 1v1? He’d have to lose for it to take effect. So? My thoughts on Szayelaporro- are basically? That he lacks in stats, but has killer support abilities for a team fight. If he could put aside his differences and work with everyone else. Otherwise? He just gets picked off before he can really do any Hax.

[@TUCKALMIGHTY]

I don’t think that’s super fair, since we did see Luffy get burned & scratched. Even during his debut fight. Which are always notoriously good about over hyping Luffy’s new gears for five mins. But otherwise, he basically toyed around with Lucci. (Someone with awakening + ACoC. Debatably near Zoro/Sanji level in Wano.) The seraphim are being hyped up a lot for their durability. And even managed to push Black Beard. So I think it definitely just speaks to their insane stats. And of course. Idk why he refuses to use ACoC now, other than it being OP. But he probably just doesn’t need it lol. As for the clones. Yes, new chapter. & the fight was heat 🔥
