Sanji’s overwhelming strength after Wano explained 🔥👑

(Long Sanji Analysis Thread 🧵)

Sanji’s powers after Wano are actually devastating, but you have to pay attention to the story to understand how great they really are.

Let me explain and please try to read all the way through, it’s worth it trust 🙏

First off, you need to understand how Sanji fights.

Sanji is a martial artist who solely uses his legs when fighting. He has trained himself in aerial combat as well as developed the ability to generate flames.

His greatest attribute is his insane speed. This is very important.

A common misconception about Sanji is that he has low attack power because he relies on speed.

However it’s the exact opposite.

Sanji’s speed is what makes his AP amazing.

During the Sabaody Archipelago arc, Admiral Kizaru was introduced.

In his debut, he introduced a canon scientific formula in One Piece: “Speed = Weight”.

Basically confirming that the concept of Mass being proportional to Speed exists in One Piece.

This formula is crucial to Sanji’s strength and he’s actually been applying this logic since the Enies Lobby arc.

During Enies Lobby, Sanji used Diable Jambe for the first time.

Sanji explained that the high temperature of his flames increased the speed of his kick.

Speed = Weight in One Piece.

This means that Sanji’s Diable Jambe was not only an AP boost due to his flames, it also applied more mass to his kicks which made them do more damage.

This is why Sanji’s kicks were so much more devastating using this technique.

As Sanji’s speed continued to grow, his AP grew proportionally.

It’s also important to mention that Diable Jambe also increases Sanji’s movement speed.

This is because with Sky Walk, Sanji moves through the air by kicking. If his kicks are faster, his movement speed grows.

Ok we’ve established that:

1. Speed = Mass in One Piece

2. Diable Jambe increases both Attack Speed and Movement Speed (w/ Sky Walk)

3. The *temperature* of Sanji’s leg is what increases his speed

Let’s move on to Wano

During the Wano Saga, Sanji unlocked 3 big power ups.

1. An Exoskeleton
2. The ability to disappear through sheer speed
3. Ifrit Jambe

These 3 abilities are perfect for Sanji and they’re the reason why his strength is so overwhelming now.

The first important upgrade to mention is Ifrit Jambe.

As Sanji stated in Enies Lobby, the temperature of his leg increases the speed of his kick.

We know for a fact that fire temperature is canon because Sanji states that IFJ is much hotter than DJ, hence the change in color.

Using the chart below:

Orange Flames (Diable Jambe) burn at ~2400°C.

Blue Flames (Ifrit Jambe) burn at ~5200°C

Ifrit Jambe is roughly 2x hotter than Diable Jambe.

Since the temperature increases his speed, IFJ Sanji moves 2x faster than DJ Sanji.

Before you say “Stop talking about science in One Piece”, Oda brought this idea up himself.

Oda wrote “Speed = Mass”. Oda wrote Sanji’s Ifrit Jambe as a direct power and temperature progression from Diable Jambe.

This was Oda’s idea so argue with him not me 🙏

Using Oda’s “Speed = Mass” logic, Sanji’s Ifrit Jambe technique allows him to DOUBLE his speed compared to Diable Jambe, which was already a speed increase.

This means he DOUBLES the mass of his attacks, which in turn massively increases his Attack Power.

Now on top of doubling the mass of his attacks, he also unlocked an Exoskeleton.

Sanji states that his Exoskeleton increases both his strength and his weight.

This just adds on to the power and mass of his Ifrit Jambe kicks.

We also need to consider that Sanji was able to turn invisible through sheer speed WITHOUT Diable Jambe or Ifrit Jambe.

If we assume that Diable Jambe doubles Sanji’s speed (which is lowballing it btw), this means that Ifrit Jambe Sanji moves 4x faster than Base Sanji.

If Base Sanji can turn invisible against an average Observation Haki user, Sanji using Ifrit Jambe at top speed would be 4x faster than that.

Since Speed = Mass in One Piece, this means Sanji’s Ifrit Jambe attacks carry roughly 4x as much mass as his base attacks, 4x the AP.

This explains how Sanji with Ifrit Jambe was able to toss around someone as large and durable as Queen with little effort.

The mass and power of his attacks were literally quadrupled.

This is why Sanji’s power after Wano is so devastating.

All of his upgrades and powers work together to maximize his fighting style and make it as overwhelming as possible 🔥

So to wrap it up, Sanji’s abilities were perfectly planned by Oda and work perfectly with each other and with his fighting style.

Oda made it so that Sanji’s greatest stat proportionally increases his most downplayed stat.

If you made it this far, thanks for reading bro 🤝
