How do you define "power" in One Piece

[Death BOO Z]

you are over-estimating Enel...
his lightning\matra aside, Enel was a horrible warrior, had low fighting stamina and was quite 'slow' in his movements.
the only thing that he had was the lightning based invurnability, which still has some weaknesses.
other than rubber, probably every non-conductor matrial could harm him, and there are quite a few of those, not to mention he probably couldn't avoid other logia based attacks.

his mantra is good, and all, but it depends on his movement speed, which isn't very high (imagine him trying to predict rob lucci's speed, impossible).

leavinng us with his electricity attacks. and for heavens sake, Nami could (theortically) divert those, so anyone with similar abilities could do that. and there's still the option of using a metal rod to 'aborb' the hit, and simply 'fastmoving' the attack.

Basically, anyone with a seastone weapon and Luffy's general fighting ability could beat Enel.

Some say "well he can predict attacks and teleport instantly so he should never get hit by a sea-stone weapon."

And yet, Luffy still beat him, by hitting him. Which in itself is inconsistant. He shouldn't have hit him, but somehow he did.

Basically, if you gave Garp a giant sea-stone cannonball, he'd make short work of Enel. He shouldn't be able to, but if Luffy can do it, so could he.


On the subject of Shanks making Whitebeards crew pass out, that didn't seem to be an actually "ability". They explained that Shanks is so powerful, that those who are weak feel suffocated around him.

They use similar things in Naruto and Bleach. In Bleach they would call it his "spiritual pressure".


Also, Whitebeard isn't a giant. Half giant maybe, but he's only like 2-3 times as tall as Shanks. The giants are like 100 ft tall.

Thats true.

One a side note. What episode was it that Shanks visited White beard on his ship? Can anyone let me know? I've been wanting to watch it for some time now and I can't find what episode it was.
