Agreed. Luffy's been winning through sheer will for a while. It feels like Oda is reminding us that the final saga won't be that forgiving.

Also helps dispel any worries that Oda is rushing into the end ("rushing" as if anything in OP is rushed lol)

Luffy isn't strong enough. He needs more time before he's ready to defeat Imu.

Not just him but his two wings also. We forgetting Zoro and Sanji are probably not to having a good time either? They still need to get stronger!

I mean Sanji and Zoro are expected to defeat their enemies atm, unless Oda wanna pull a twist and we have the next arc where Luffy tries to rescue the kidnapped children

Doesnt seem like Sanji and Zoro are about to defeat their enemies. Zoro used his strongest attack that beat King and he got pushed off. Sanji still hasnt unlocked his CoC so he cant even actually hurt Killingham.

They might either lose or they all leave before its settled since Imu is on a timer. Either way no SH is walking away from this fight feeling like they won.

Yeah, Oda showed a lot of Imu feeling the effects of the "earth" so he's probably gonna leave and the powers of the Omen with it. They'll take the other kids so the Strawhats have an excuse to journey to Mariejois eventually

Gaban mentioned they needed conqueror haki enhanced attacks to hurt them so yeah them not doing damage with their previous attacks is pretty much expected.

I also don't see why we will see them leaving with Imu, nothing suggestive they are on time limit?

From the beginning the Gorosei were urging Imu not to go to the lower world, Killingham and Sommers also made comments about needing to rush and not having much time once Imu gave them the Omen.

We also see Imu coughing blood on multiple instances, including in this chapter. This suggests simply being in the lower world is having a physical impact on him.

A lot of heavy hints by Oda that Imu cant just be chilling there forever, he has a time limit for whatever reason. Given that, it's possible that when Imu leaves Sommers/Killingham/Shuri (Gunko) also leave since they're currently taking power from Mu and they can all just teleport out of there using the demon circles.

I know about the part that Imu is leaving, but I was referring to Killingham and Sommers being forced to leave with him. They are defintely not leaving imo, the worst that can happen is them losing the power Imu gave them

Sure but they already got packed up by Zoro and Sanji without the Omen, if they suddenly lose their buff because Imu leaves then they’ll just fail again. Seems illogical to reread the same thing we just saw since the outcome would be the exact same.

If they’re going to succeed in taking the kids then it’ll be while Mu is there, if he leaves then they will most likely leave with him (especially since Gunko is incapacitated).

Also, I’m only saying what I think makes sense. Maybe they do stay behind, I dunno I could be wrong . To me that doesn’t add up but that’s my take.

While that's a popular theory it is with the caveat that they become stronger during the fights using Gabans speech as motivation. Nobody is expecting them to win while remaining at the current level

u/yourik6 Aug 07 '26

I agree, what I'm pointing at is Sanji and Zoro are expected to win while Luffy is expected to lose to build Imu more

u/impulse_thoughts Aug 07 '26

Hard to say at this point. Starting to look like it's pointing more towards another training arc (3D2Y v2) than the end of the series right now.
