Pirates: Steel Chain Fingers

Everyone's point of contention is mainly - [Karp's strength will not decline with age. 】

First off, let me say that this is an over-interpretation of what Oda said.

The original words of this paragraph come from a question and answer session of Oda in SBS, and the content of the translated version I read is like this.

D: After watching ONE PIECE, you will find that there are really many uncles in the story. May I ask that there are so many uncles on the stage, is it because the story setting has to let them appear? Or is Oda-sensei suffering from the disease of "If you don't draw the uncle, you will die"?

O: I like uncle! Regardless of male and female characters, their character depth will increase with age, so there are many interesting people! But in reality, the older you get, the weaker your physical strength will be. Some young people will look down on them because of this, and they will not respect the elders. I used to hate that kind of people. So, if all the uncles, old women, grandpas, and grandmas didn't become weak due to old age, I don't know how cool it would be! This is one of the fantasy themes that One Piece wants to portray. Readers who are reading this comic will also grow old one day, and everyone must hope that they will be as strong as these people in the story!

The related picture of this SBS is the head portrait of four people. They are Doctor Guleva, Karp, Rayleigh and Whitebeard.

In other words, the so-called "Karp will not lose physical strength due to age" is better to say "all the old people in One Piece will not lose physical strength due to age".

Then the question arises, will the old man in One Piece really not become weak due to old age?

When Raleigh fought against the orangutan in the Chambord Islands, he once sighed, "I really want to help them, but time is not forgiving."

Whitebeard also described in many pages that he was unable to do what he wanted because of his old age. Akainu also said when fighting against him, "Even you can't match your age, Whitebeard."

Not to mention the characters such as the leader Qingjiao, Rao G, and the Red Earl who are troubled by old age.

Back to Garp, when Garp was chasing Luffy in the capital of seven waters, he laughed at himself that the power of the fist bone meteor is not as good as before, "I really don't want to grow old, the power has become weaker!"

These are related to the plot that Oda himself embodied in the comics.

But what is interesting in One Piece is that unless the elderly here are extremely old like Lao G, most of the elderly have similar skills to the young. The difference between them and the young is only in physical strength. That's all.

This is also what I expressed in the last chapter. Karp is very strong, but his physical strength will also decline due to age, and this is why BIGMOM caught the opportunity and was hacked by her.

I hope this is the last time to open a single chapter to explain the plot. I always feel that the author needs to open a single chapter to explain the plot. Next time you guys have any disputes, let’s put the arguments first. Whoever doubts will provide evidence, it’s fair, right? Of course, if there is a loophole in the previous setting due to being backstabbed by the new plot of the comic, there is nothing I can do.

Finally, because I was looking for relevant evidence and materials, I couldn't code words tonight, and there will be no update tomorrow.
