So... defeating burgess with the greatest of ease. Clashing with Fujitora, getting into the holy land with 4 men. Having your subordinates take on fuji and greenbull (winning), might add. Coming into contact with all of the Gorosei and IMU BTW, and surviving. Imu being a candidate for end game villian BTW. "Running away, is not a feat" this statement has to be the most 1 brain cell take of 2024. The fact that he faced 5 of the gorosei and IMU on is own and lived. Is a crazy feat in itself. Bro didn't read egghead. Sabo took attacks from Imu, potentially top 5 in the verse. Luffy would likely have to run in that scenario to?? There is probably only a 1 person in the verse who could take them all on 1v6??? Thats JOYBOY. Overall, this has to be the biggest L take of the year.

Like why would you use armament haki when you can cover them in magma or shower them with lasers or freeze them.... Even if they clash with you using armament haki it wouldn't negate any secondary effects of your fruit like tempurature etc...

Sabo being stabbed by Imu doesn't matter for Powerscaling. There's nothing to work with, other than being below the likely final antagonist of the series. Both Sabo & Cobra could be pierced by it, and for all we know Kaido would get the same injury. We have no upper limit on how powerful that was.

Ive always wondered why would we see Sabo and Dragon on the same pannel, when both represent the same organisation

[@trop1kill]

Running away isn't a feat but gorosei are regen merchants and even met with all 5 gorosei he used a hiken and made them screech in pain which with what we know of the gorosei now is a feat. also enduring a potentially end game antags attack and still escaping is crazy. Not to mention oda just set him up as the flame emperor. also I've seen trying to downplay sabo with cobra which is just insane to me when cobra was literally just being used as a narrative device. Idk I just think downplay on sabo is directly ignoring what oda is puting down if you really think sabo is just going to be completely embarrassed by his younger brother luffy without at least showing something of note I just think thats insane

[@skidzzthewiz9226]

Idk being able to go into the room of the final boss, and the final boss’s commanders is one of the best things seen in the manga. That’s basically like impel down luffy breaking into marineford in a room full of then 3 admirals, sakazuki, sengoku, and prime garp. Being able to take a hit from prime garp and then make it out of there with help from a wheel chair bound king cobra. Like that would be insane. Sabo being able to leapfrog having to engage with admirals and being put in a room with the gorosei says a lot.

[@JustGoldy77]

Just a note. Narrative and Showings AREN’T SEPARATE THINGS. What characters do (feats) and what characters say (statements) form a narrative. What you’re talking about is narrative implication.

[@shayoko6]

I agree that FujiTora didn't use all of his abilities. but it is more like he chose not to destroy the island, rather than he wasn't serious when fighting Sabo. I don't think he was holding back on the techniques that he used. he just wasn't trying to destroy the island which wouldn't be how you fight one person. I don't think dressrosa Sabo would defeat an admiral 1v1. But it will 100% happen by the end of the story. We can't pretend that characters didn't get a massive power buff in wano. Kidd and law fighting big mom. And a lot of characters who fought kaido and somehow didn't get one hit knocked out like luffy the first time they fought. Significant power-ups after a small amount of time because haki blooms in battle. It gets stronger significantly faster than muscles do from what the story is telling us. If oda really wanted to. Before they left Zou Sabo would already have gotten that power buff. Because the story was already written for it to work like that. Coby is speed running everyone with how little time he has trained. Which right now from the moment we met him is around 2 years and 4 months. In Canon time-line. Because of how fast characters can get power ups in the series. Any discussion insert character is too weak to do something. is completely pointless, since they will get that massive power up the moment Oda decides to give it to them .

My problem with Sabo is the fact that people think he will be able to fight & take down Akainu EOS which based on everything, including feats, statements, narrative, and speculation, its not going to happen. He really needs a good buff in power, even Koby is doing better than him.

[@TrueReverse74]

Sabo Getting injured is just plot based, It will more than likely be an outlier or Cobra is just built better than we thought, It's the same reason Luffy gets knocked out by ceaser or Zoro and Luffy getting injured by Apoo, or big mom losing her memory from a bump on the head or being rolled of by robin like she's a bowling ball. It's just oda writing for the sake of making a scene to move the story forward rather than that being an actual showing of their capabilities. In this same scene, somehow, he has the speed to somehow outrun ALL 5 ELDERS AND IMU despite having a hole through him yet that isn't mentioned at all. Simply put, Sabo hasn't shown us his full capabilities, neither has fujitora, mihawk, shanks, or Dragon, we all need to give them grace until then. Him getting injured by Imu only tells us that Imu can put him on a t-shirt which he can do to most people. Also i'd like to add that just because Akainu will fight and lose to luffy, Doesn't meaan sabo WON'T fight akainu either. Luffy beating akainu doesn't change anything about the marines, it's just luffy getying his revenge for what he did to ace and himself, I don't know why people just assume that it's immediately over like luffy kills his opponents. Plus if he fights a holy knight who is more than likely stronger than akainu, that makes it more likely he would fight akainu since he'd be able to enforce the revolution of marines, because we have reason to believe Sabo can actually win against him.

[@Stoneking-lf6ey]

Well, my head cannon I think the reason why cobra was able to stand up from that attack was because he was a descendent of a D clan member which was Nefetari D Lili we all know D clan members with just their willpower are able to pull off unnatural feats like aces Mom and even though he doesn’t have the D in his name he still is a descendent of one and the will of D is most likely inherited. But that’s just my head cannon.

I actually love sabo. I think his very underrated. And i think it make sense for Sabo to fight Aku. Ace was Sabo brother too Sabo fighting him makes sense and Sabo also has Ace Devil fruit powers And Aku kill ace . And i think it would be better if Luffy fighting Blackbead and for Sabo to Fight Aku

[@isaacjohnson7573]

It makes most sense for dragon. While at this point it seems certain they had history in some way in the marines probably as rivals jn a way. Then Dragon up and left the marines and became the world’s worst criminal. Something that pissed akainu off so much to personally go out of his way to kill luffy multiple times during the war. Plus Akainu is on a different lvl and it makes much more sense for the head of the revolutionaries to defeat him to me

[@jasonjacksonii1805]

I think they are handling Sabo pretty well. We do get feats from him, I mean he won that final round in the tournament, easily beat the bricks of blackbeards first division commander, and still had the stamina to hold off an admiral. Thats just dressrosa, but we dont even need to see his best feats since we know hes the strongest rev, and we see plenty of feats from them to scale off of. You can make the same arguments to downplay Ace and Dragon, it's just because oda wants to keep them secret. And he definitely isnt weaker than Cobra, this showing was literally just cuz oda wanted cobra to make that sacrifice, that he got up first. Thats an example of narrative scaling, which you claim is all we have to scale sabo, but then use to scale Cobra whos weaker than pretime skip luffy? Then i do think it makes more sense for him to fight Akainu, at least more sense than it makes to fight the unnamed character we dont know anything about yet. Luffy isn't supposed to be revenge filled, his anger is directed at blackbeard more anyways. But simply getting away from the gorosei in the span of one chapter is a massive feat, that not even the strawhats are pulling off. We have been leaving egghead for months now, Sabo did it in one chapter. I dont really get the problem being a sabo problem, when its so clear Oda has been saving the revs and holy knights for a massive reveal of their power later. That I don't see anyone other than you being blindsided by it, or suprised they are having their feats hidden

Being stalled by Vista and coping by saying that Mihawk wasn't paying attention to him when it was actually just one panel of him looking away, reporting your fight with Vista, your attack to test Whitebeard being blocked without any problem by his third commander, being in a competition with only you and Zoro since no one gives a fuck a out the WSS title, Roger never being called the WSS despite him being the strongest sword user at the time implying that this title doesn't concern over all power, hyping people saying that you will fight marine and fleeing the tail between your legs just after, rejoining the Buggy group and the WG doesn't even recognize you as the yonkou of the crew, sweating buckets at the simple idea of fighting other yonkous, not being mentioned in Kaido's top 5 and not being mentioned in Vegapunk's final actors for the One piece, Brandnew mentioning that your "sword skills" are better than Shanks without ever saying that you're stronger than him, being the WSS without actually defeating any top tier swordsmen in the manga...
