OnePiece

I do not think so. xebec's family (percievably) did not resist it. my guess is it depends on how strong your will (haki) is. seemingly only xebec is the one who could even resist.

I believe haki is the answer to about every devil's related power. You must be right. IMO Davy clan was kind of the last living people knowing about Imu and other secrets. But only a few of them are born real fighter like Xebec, being able to carry their ancester's will.

(most of these are community beliefs). No, current idea is basically D are all families (monkey, trafalgar, nefertari, etc) who were with davy/joyboy in the lost century. I am not sure what part/page you are refering to. roger (and garp) was basically non present in this chapter except for last 2 pages.

My confusion comes from this panel

My impression is that Roger is awakening / using some strong haki, and Imu seems to feels it comes from a Davy clan member.

Until now, Imu seemed to use the name of the First born of a lineage to call their heir. So, from what I understood from that panel, I thing having common lineage for the different clans of D. crossed my mind.

I never expected it to be a letdown. but i certainly did not expect to get GV so soon or so good. i expected it to be on par with or slightly succeed marineford. currently, (imo), we are even past that.

I agree, GV is above Marinford. And we haven't it all yet. I'm eager to see this fight, how GW disappear, and why the people that saw Imu never talked about it before.

I mean, Big Mom, Kaido, Garp and White beard never talked about it before...
