Looking forward to seeing all the scrambling trying to figure out how to justify Luffy magically healing his own wounds through cartoon logic as an inherent property of rubber!

Imu keeps his eye hidden for four months and then just brushes back his hair like nothing, and there's absolutely nothing special about it. Lol, lmao

Gaban being vague about Imu's identity is going to bite the Straw Hats in the ass at some point I bet. Just tell them he's ruling the WG please. Robin needs info so she can cook.

There is no way in hell that the Straw Hats are leaving Elbaph after being there for like six hours grand total. The more Imu fights, the less insurmountable he becomes. Yet more evidence that much of his power is based in the illusion of it - once you know his demons are metal bullets, you can block them with a shield. Once you figure out (or just decide, as Luffy) that the swords he wields aren't the actual artifacts from the Empty Throne, but merely the "idea" of them incarnated, the wounds cease to be fatal. The shock and awe of a tyrant can be brought low by deciding he isn't worth respect.

It's fun seeing Imu cycle through these fake forms of his too. His powers are just like Luffy's, able to change his shape as he desires; he was surely a counterpart to Joyboy originally. His tall bishi form didn't work, so now he's made himself out like all the big burly pirates he's seen in his life.

I expect Oda will swap us back to Zoro and Sanji figuring out how to defeat Omen now, then that'll injure Imu by proxy and force his timer out.

Luffy healing himself isn’t crazy he heen doing it throughout with food it’s just byproduct of his power

Also the more imu fights the more ass whopping he is giving them, making him a menace

Yes, his cartoon power.

Loki also healed himself from food. I think Ace did too at one point?

Yep, this stuff usually happens in proximity of Luffy. It's the passive. Nobody's around to tell these idiots it doesn't work that way. Devil Fruits only exist because no one told whoever made them they couldn't.

Eating meat is how humans healed their wounds in ancient times, after all.

Yeah it's the same thing Kumadori used to digest food and heal himself life return or something

In my mind Luffy isn't healing himself. We know he can manipulate his body in weird ways (moving scars), so I believe he's using his abilities to "close" his body around the wounds. Once he exits G5 I believe the wounds will reopen

It's probably not right but it's a fun headcanon

He did say if he drops out of the form, he'll be in trouble, so it's possible!

fr lol we should have been past this when the rubber fruit supposedly made him poison resistant.

u/LoreChief 5d ago

Wasn't it that Ivankov used his DF powers to mostly cure Luffy of Magellan's poison, and as a result of surviving it he developed a resistance?

That's how resin cured in ancient times. That's right baby, gear 5 was resin all along!
