Well this thread seems to be pretty inconclusive. Since there seems to be no definitive idea of Links physical capabilities and speculation abound I think theres not much point in continuing this thread.
Imo, even if what you say is accurate Scream, Luffy can still beat him unconscious with his sub-island busting attacks before Link could use any of those attacks on him. The speed and strength difference is enormous. Luffy will paste him before he could use Ether.
Oh that.
Luffy's body is made out of rubber. Sometimes he twists his body around to give his punches more power and sometimes he sucks in a lot of air for various purposes. He actually is sucking in a shitton of air and twisting his body around. Gear 3rd for instance has him literally blowing air into his body to make it bigger and stronger.
Those are only a few of his attacks though. He can attack perfectly fine without doing it. In todays chapter for instance he just ran up and punched the villain without any ****ing around. He doesn't need to do it for his Gatling Gun attack either.

The only reason it can even be speculated that Luffy could is because Link never used the full thing in combat. (If he did, there could not be combat.)
If what I'm saying is accurate, Luffy in all likelihood cannot hurt Link. And if he does, well, ToP, Link uses Ether anyway.
Also, laser dodge. ermmvin

If it could he used it such a manner. I mean, going off of this:
When the Triforce is completed the seperate pieces leave the body of their hosts and forms the Triforce which is its own entity. Who says that it can be wielded in the same way as the seperate pieces can? Its inside the wielders body like the seperate pieces are.
In all likelihood you can't prove that.
That wasn't a laser dodge.

I'm actually not sure if Thanos is within the Triforce's reality warping abilities. mmm But then I don't read much about Thanos.
He's beaten Thor, IIRC, gotten utterly punked by Odin and Gallactus, oh, and squirrel girl.
But yeah, I dunno about that specific idea.
Originally posted by NephthysIn aLttP Ganon did exactly that, actually. The game starts with him in possession of the triforce. This is the game where the statement about the Master Sword being a failsafe to it's power comes from.

What you're showing here is actually a moment of extreme PIS haermm Ganondorf formed the entire triforce, having beaten Link and Zelda, and then didn't ****ing claim it.
And then the King shows up and just wishes for everything to go away, what an *******.

And how does he use it in the game? Is it something he can possess and use like the seperate pieces?Because the King got to it first. Ganondorf was gloatingly taking his time like a good villain and got egg on his face over it.
aLttP starts with Ganon sealed away in the sacred realm, a fate that normally renders one unable to interact with the normal world at all. Just possessing the triforce caused it to warp the entire sacred realm, which mirrors Hyrule Earth, into the dark world. From across the dimensional barrier and sealed away he then created a minor avatar of himself, and caused massive natural disasters which his avatar could pretend to stop in order to gain the King's favour and then mind-rape the entire hylian army, and start kidnapping maidens and other evil guy stuff.
So, in short, yes, it's something he possessed and used.
Link gets the master sword, which fulfills it's job as plot device protection and evil-smitey power, beats up Ganon, and obtains the triforce himself. Then uses it to make everything right again and fix the damage Ganon caused.
Also, yeah, like I said, PIS villain shit.
Not quite what I meant. Bu looking at this:
It seems like the Triforce is still independent from Ganon. Plus all that the Essence says is that what the Triforce did was grant his wish to conquer the world by changing the Golden Land into the Dark Land. It also says that it grants the wishes of those who touch it, and when the King did that the Triforce flew away.
No he didn't. He never said that.
Meh it doesn't matter anyway. Since its a separate from its wielder, Luffy can quite easily separate Link from it. And since its seperate it can't be said that it boosts the wielder in the same way that the individual pieces do, which go into the bodies of their wielder.

Yeah, no. 😐
Link beats Ganon, gets talked to by the triforce or something, we're not sure what the essence of the triforce is, and then...
TRIFORCE GET!
Followed by a series of scenes showing all of the shit Link changed.
