Not with Luffy, because Luffy's is basically taijutsu enhanced by stretchiness. If he grabbed him he might be able to drain the devil effect, but that's Luffy's actual fist there.
The others, though? When they actually produce an element from the fruit, that's really no different than doing a lighting/sand/quake jutsu.
Heck, when done in the air, it's *entirely* fruit effect in something that doesn't even naturally quake.
I'd say it does. There's even similar OP effects that can shut down fruit (generally when done to the user directly, darkness fruit shutting down powers, but still).
It shouldn't. The quakes aren't focused at a distance. Nagato has Azura path armor, Deva path gravity-pulse, and Preta path absorption.
His quakes are powerful environmental-effect range, but his blows are only one-hit kill things when he's actually hitting you.
The only people he took out at a distance were those that couldn't handle the ground opening up beneath them or the like. Every time he took out someone tough, that was because he either punched them or hit them with his halberd.
At a distance, even *without* Preta absorption, he'll wreck havoc but won't be doing any one-hit kills with Nagato.
first of all your talking about 8/9 of the NINE TAILS power which far eclipses any thing whitebeard can do so dont expect whitebeard to do shit. Second to both of you nagato through the deva path reacted to six tailed naruto's speed and was able to out run him and dodge a rasenshuriken so trust me he can see whitebeard and counter with shinra tensei plus he is a sensor so he has a even better advantage.
Also he has all of his other paths which can summon easily a army like he did to invade konoha and he can use the asura path to fly and bombard whitebeard.
just no if he was struggling to tip marineford over he is definitely not destroying the world.
1) Power Feats for the 8 Tails that put it above Whitebeards City busting Quakes or that statement has no value
2) When has the 6 tails been shown to be faster than Whitebeard? The guy is a Top Tier OP character, he is able to react to Kizaru... who travels at the speed of light...
3) The summons would get destroyed by a single quake, having shown nothing that can stand against such destructive power...
4) I get the feeling WB can take a bombardment from the Asura path, considering the amount of damage he soaked up in Marineford
A Sea King (Wank Pieceish for Aligator) bit off Shank's arm. Chapter 1 Luffy killed that Sea King. Shank stalemated Whitebeard.
Nagato has the Rinnegan and can do pretty much anything. Control gravity, rip out souls, absorb any elemental attacks, summon legendary creatures, you name it. Nagato would steamroll all over One Piece.
At least I bring proof and just don't baselessly wank for no reason.
Point is they never advance that far in the manga, that's what that battle proved. Also even Haku was lightspeed, putting 100% of the high nin (yet alone kages) far beyond anything in speed in One Piece.
Haku isn't lightspeed. Databook does not supersede the manga.
Even Seven Gates Gai was only described as supersonic.
They never advance that far in the manga? Are you, perhaps, retarded?
Luffy in Marineford was a joke during the battle, Whitebeard crushed everyone he fought, including Akainu, you know, the man the collective Blackbeard pirates ran in fear from.
Pre-timeskip Luffy needed his entire crew to take on a Pacifista with great difficulty. Now, Luffy, Zoro, or Sanji can effortlessly one-shot them.
