Yes I'll still watch the movie, I liked Strong World too but there was no difference from Strong World compared to any of the other movies besides the remake movies as they did not contract anything major and could have happened. Maybe the Strawhats really did participate in a pirate race, maybe Zoro did have another rival besides Kuina and maybe the crew really did chase a bird dog that stole Luffy's hat. Certainly those events are at least more believable to be not mentioned as it can be easily imagined that the crew would have many side adventures that were just for fun. | ||

Luffy wouldn't have stood a chance against Shiki. | ||

One Piece episode 575 is out called Z's Ambition! Lily the Little Giant! Looks like it will be just setup for the One Piece movie like the other anime episodes that were before Strong Worlds release. | ||

Arlong never showed up again, but he gave Luffy a bounty, cemented Nami's loyalty and influenced Luffy's relationship with fishmen. At the bare minimum major villains were important to the character development like Kuro or Don Kreig. Probably the least important major villain was Foxy, but Shiki's influence was just a repeat of Arlong's holding Nami against her will trauma as Nami was already loyal to the crew. One Piece episode 575 is out called Z's Ambition! Lily the Little Giant! Looks like it will be just setup for the One Piece movie like the other anime episodes that were before Strong Worlds release. Luffy beating Arlong had some importance in the fishman arc and might come into a play again when they meet up with Jimbei again does foxy really count as a villain...? he was so minor and was in the manga for such a short time he was really jsut a sideshow for the lulz | ||

That's definitely not admiral level LOL + Show Spoiler + Some parts of One piece Z is canon, some aren't. For example + Show Spoiler + Aokiji's leg is made up of ice in this movie. Yeah. From what I've heard Oda is working on the designs of the characters, but not the story. So the appearance of the characters are canon, but their actions aren't (as weird as that sounds).

It was also back when Shiki didn't have swords for legs. You can't honestly believe he was as strong when he fought luffy as he was when he fought Garp and Sengoku. That would be completely ignoring the disabilities he received AND the fact that he got older and weaker. Garp may still be strong right now, but I'm positive he was much stronger back in the day when he was out fighting Roger. | ||

Whitebeard was a damn monster, and was seen as such, while Shiki was powerful before mainly because he amassed a huge army. Rayleigh was first mate of Roger (who was tied with Whitebeard for the most powerful man) and he's mastered Haki. Neither of your examples have any real relation to Shiki, other than the era they were in. Not to mention Shiki was incredibly arrogant vs Luffy, so he wasn't fighting as smart as he could have. Luffy also had the help of Billy AND the thunderstorm, so it's not like it was just Luffy beating Shiki 1v1. | ||

Luffy's reaction wouldn't have made sense if you remove Foxy. Not very important but it's something. | ||

You can't just say "well he fought X so he HAS to know haki". Haki doesn't work that way. It's entirely possible he went his whole life using only his devil fruit, and ignoring haki. Okay, Shiki got old AND was locked in prison, hows that? You're not even making a point here, you're just saying he needs to be powerful by association, which isn't true at all. | ||

Can you site which part at least to have proof that he has Haki? Also, you are saying if he went against admiral level logia users, we would need haki. But he went against garp and sengoku who are not logia DF users. So what is the relevance? Whitebeard also isn't logia type. If you want to cite his first commander (phoenix guy) maybe at the time Shiki wasn;'t imprisoned, that guy wasn't even part of the crew so it doesn't matter and Shiki didn't have to fight him. Yes, it would be impossible to fight a logia user without knowing Haki, but when has shiki ever been shown to use Haki or go against a logia type. We also don't have a direct timeline to cite whether Akainu, Kizaru and the ice guy were even admirals already back then or even if they had their logia powers back when Shiki supposedly attacked the base. So as long as we don't have actual references to pull out "facts" or canon, then Shiki does not have Haki, period. | ||
