Naruto Uzumaki can beat Monkey D. Luffy in a fight, if not equally match him

Punching the Nine Tails does not mean hurt Naruto, who is burried deep within the Nine Tail's body in a place that Luffy cannot reach because the Nine Tails regenrates/heals itself. . You can never "knock it out" because it is an immortal being who's always constantly concious. "However, you may notice that this is A LOT like the Logia Devil Fruit users in One Piece. Logia users are also invincible to Physical attacks (Video 1, 0:30), can regenerate severe injuries (Video 2), and form strong armor-like fortresses around themselves (Video 3, first 5 seconds)Now this is the point where we must use logic to make the fighting mechanisms of the two shows compatible. If the Nine Tails is just like a Logia user in terms of strength and ability, then it is logical to conclude that it also has similar weaknesses. A Logia user can only be hit by 1) their elemental weaknesses or 2) Haki coated attacks. Thus far, the Nine Tails has not been shown to have any elemental weaknesses. However, if we analyze the fighting mechanisms of both shows, I believe it is logical to conclude that Haki would work effectively on the Nine Tailed Fox. Luffy has extremely strong Haki, so, if this is true, which I believe has been logically proven to be such, all it would really take is a few well-aimed Jet Elephant Gatlings to totally decimate Naruto's Nine Tails armor, leaving Naruto to use his own powers (e. g. Rasengan, Shadow Clones, Sage Mode, Kyuubi Mode)BRUTE STRENGTH"I'm sure there are still limitations to his Gear 3rd and he cannot use it indefinately. The same goes for his Gear 2nd. "If I may, I would like to remind my opponent that Naruto's use of Sage Mode and Kyuubi Mode are just as limited if not more limited than Luffy's use of Gear Second and Gear Third, so this point isn't really valid. Also, even without his Gears, Luffy's pure physical strength is comparable to that of Naruto's while in Sage Mode (please refer back to video 3 of round 2), so WITH his gears, he could surely outmatch Naruto in terms of physical attack force. "If Naruto was in his Tailed Beast Mode with the exoskeleton, his physical strength I'm sure would match Luffy's. It is undeniable that his Beast form carries much more brute strength"Possibly, but like I've shown, Haki would allow Luffy to defeat Naruto's Nine Tails Armor with a few well-placed, powerful blows. ARMOR"Luffy's armor, while invulnerable to blunt attacks up to a certain degree of brute force, is not invulnerable to sharp objects/weapons. .. This means, that Luffy is vulnerable to anything that cuts, which includes but is not limited to Naruto's kunai knives and his rasen shuriken. "A very good point by my opponent. However, I would like to point out that Naruto in his Nine Tails armor is not nearly as capable as dodging as Luffy is in his Haki armor. Luffy is completely mobile in his armor. Meanwhile Naruto has a hard time just controlling his. For this reason, I think it is safe to call it equal in terms of durability for both characters. SPECIAL ADVANTAGESMy opponent has done an excellent job of refuting my point about Naruto's weakness to fire. Thus, my primary job here should be to prove that Luffy's weakness to sea water would play a minimal role in a battle between him and Naruto. I will do so through examples from the show, as I can see no other way to do so. Luffy has proven to be quite adaptable in his many battles near bodies of water. One major example of this was his battle with Don Krieg, which was situated on two ships in the middle of the ocean. Yet despite this disadvantage, Luffy didn't fall into the water until after the battle was finished. In addition, recently, Luffy did a battle UNDERWATER with a FISHMAN (Hody Jones). Luffy did have the help of a giant bubble, of course, but the point is, that Luffy is extremely adaptable, even when it comes to settings in which water is a primary component of the battle field. The only time in which water has been a big problem for Luffy was in his battle with Arlong, but that was before Luffy even got his Gears or Haki, so that doesn't count for much. "This [Shadow Clones] doesn't change the fact that Luffy would be confused by them"HOW many times throughout the show has Luffy EVER been "confused" by his opponent's ability? When he is serious about a fight, NOTHING gets in the way of him destroying his opponent! CONCLUSIONS-Luffy can defeat Naruto's Nine Tailed Fox Armor using Haki-Luffy is EQUAL in durability to Naruto, since both have incredible will power as well as powerful methods of armament. -Luffy's knack for adaptability really minimizes the threat of drowning in a situation where the battle field primarily consists of waterSo to revisit the 6 factors of combat ability:Brute Strength: Luffy (1)Intelligence: Naruto (1)Speed: ***Reflexes: Luffy (2)Durability: ---Special Advantages: ---SCORE: (Luffy 2, Naruto 1)Conclusion: Luffy would win in a fight with Naruto. *** Yes, I realize that I took off Naruto's speed point. The reason is that I just noticed that I used a logically invalid argument to justify Naruto's speed advantage over Luffy; just because Naruto is the fastest character in his respective show and Luffy is not doesn't mean anything! It just means that the characters in Naruto (show) are slower than those in One Piece! :DMy opponent is free to challenge me on that :)I look forward to next round. Good luck to my opponent! P. S. Many of the videos I have posted included Luffy from 2 years ago when he was still pretty weak, so don't see them as representative of Luffy's current level of strength. . http://www.youtube.com...http://www.youtube.com...http://www.youtube.com...
