User blog comment:Fliu/My Opinion on the Giants/@comment-24850639-20170920193848

I think you might be taking some of these conceptions too far, but then again Oda has created a power-scaling issue here that he needs to write his way out of with the right characters. Oda hasn't really used the giants yet to show off how strong the giants are, but he's certainly used the giants to show off how strong a non-giant person is.

- Ronse and John Giant happened before Whitebeard really started to get serious, just to show you how ridiculously powerful he is.

- Yorle Fallbeard was to demonstrate how truly ridiculous Big Mom's strength was, even as a child.

- Franky was actually holding his own against Bastille, and then Sabo eventually fodderized him

- Hajrudin's actually worked both ways, initially showing just how much force Machvise could really kick out, but then eventually showcasing that certain techniques by giants can swat away 10000 tons.

You already mentioned Luffy vs. Hajrudin. I personally think Hajrudin's gonna be a our guy to truly become a warrior for Elbaf, he was implied to have a destiny to serve the giants in some kind of leardership capacity. Not sure how that would work with Loki, but in either case I'm looking forward to hearing so much more about the Giant Pirates.
