King has also shown several leadership roles throughout the arc that may have gone unnoticed.
Calling Tobiroppo to find Yamato
Commanding Tobiroppo to fight Invaders
Treatment of Jack
Treatment of Queen
Queen’s acknowledgement of King
Leader of the Calamities ~ Vivre Card
Rendezvous to Marineford with Kaido
Marking the End of the Beasts Pirates/Korozumi Alliance
Successful Solo Attack on the Big Mom Pirates
Now coming to King’s ability to use Advanced Conqueror’s Haki.
King has had several Haki clashes with Zoro so far. Yet none were Conqueror’s. Currently, the two are fighting in an enclosed room.
Could it be to showcase a Haki clash that breaks the surrounding room/walls/doors/windows/etc? Or something more?
We have seen several characters showcase their usage of Advanced Conqueror’s Haki within this arc already and roughly half were not Certified Top Tiers.
- Yamato, Luffy, Oden, Zoro
- Big Mom, Kaido, Newgate, Roger
What is limiting King from displaying this same ability when he has shown much more than what we could have ever fathomed he would have?
Going forwards I believe there’s a lot more to unravel from King regarding how he looks behind the suit, origins in the Beasts Pirates, his Lunarian abilities, his backstory if possible, and how it will tie in against Zoro.
