That's good in that case. It seems the consensus previously was that was some one-off fight he wouldnt't be able to access any time soon again.There isn't one. Baam speaks in these chapters about wanting to puzzle out how to draw that power at will, rather than needing some emotional stimulus. He said nothing about it having somehow disappeared.
The emotional duress White put him under was exceptional (killed him, killed Aria in front of him, ate his friends souls, etc.) and not something that happens every fight.I don't think anyone's having trouble with conceptualizing the power-leveling. It's more about whether it makes sense to cap Baam backwards.
WHAT is the reason given Baam can't access his full potential now? Given, say, the same duress as when he fought White.
I don't think it's a clone or anything. It looks like the Sea Snake was Human, then ate a snake and turned into this. Or maybe it was never Human and was a Shinheuh who became something stronger after eating one of the Snake Charmer's snakes.Anywho, the chapter trans seems to suggest there is more than just a passing similarity between SS and SC.
Androssi pretty much confirms SC can upgrade snakes (and/or spin off snake bodies in doing so), so....
The biggest shock is that it doesn't recognize her. Something happened with SC that wiped his decision-making abilities or this SS is simply a SC product of itself (akin to an asexual clone).

Although that could just be a relic of early clunky trans.
Nice catch. Which means then it isn't even part Human then.I knew the snake dude had a thing for Laura because it was told that he opened his eyes to forbidden emotions.
The thing is Androssi is referencing an ability of Snake CHARMER here:So the Snake Charmer himself is an hybrid? A Human and a Snake-like race I guess.
Cutie? Koyeop's nickname?

I think it's fair to say that Baam needs to "activate" the Sun for him to reach his op state and that's something he doesn't want to do. Afterall White had to 1 taunt him with Arkraptor and Prince and 2 basically kill him, for him to go berserk. Maybe he will activate It more easily now but still it's something really rare for him to do. Like Siu Is probably just saying, "guys don't expect Baam to go all out against someone like Ren"OK, but it seems like there's two things going on.
1. his ceiling is lowered (not explained how - just that it won't happen again any time soon? BS)
2. his base is increased (OK, fair, particularly with experience, souls from White, and Levi - but I'd argue those push open the doors of his ceiling even more).
I get you're happy about 2. happening, that's great and all, but I can't get past 1. Particularly when there's no need for it - or explanation (currently) that's reasonable. There's 'logic' that his max would be easier to attain once he's done it once, and especially after he gains hax powers. Not to have it lowered, so SIU can nerf Baam to the point that it's kind of difficult to have battles he should be breezing through - like Ren or whovever.
Fair enough. But I don't know a reader that wants to see less of the 'sun' thingy from Baam, and yet here we potentially are.I think it's fair to say that Baam needs to "activate" the Sun for him to reach his op state and that's something he doesn't want to do.

It could be something done by Yorari too, it could be a natural SC ability, but maybe it's something possible for other snake-type shinheuh.The thing is Androssi is referencing an ability of Snake CHARMER here:
Baam: "Snake Charmer?"
Androssi: "Yeah, that's what he's called. There's a saying if you eat an elder snake you can absorb the snake's powers. The Snake Charmer was half a snake, so it could have fed a part of its own body, and have raised a strong snake like that. And that's how he'd only pick the best one out of all of the snakes he raised and kill the rest."
Androssi sees SS and immediately goes into a diatribe with Baam (once rescued) about... Snake Charmer. That's not by accident, SIU is showing us they are related in the more ways than a casual appearance.
She is pointedly talking/speculating about a transformative act that Snake Charmer itself could have done - on itself - to end up like that.

Or, as I said last chapter discussion - he could have raised other sneks and upgraded. His name is CHARMER after all. I even drew a comparison to other animal charmers - such as Pied Piper - prompting if they are stuck with current charmed animals (rats in his case) or can they upgrade to other, stronger animals?
This is exactly what Androssi is speaking of here.

It all depends on how SIU will act.Fair enough. But I don't know a reader that wants to see less of the 'sun' thingy from Baam, and yet here we potentially are.
Considering her explanation I think the relation between the two is that the Sea Snake ate one of his snakes. Not that he is a clone.The thing is Androssi is referencing an ability of Snake CHARMER here:
Baam: "Snake Charmer?"
Androssi: "Yeah, that's what he's called. There's a saying if you eat an elder snake you can absorb the snake's powers.

That's just SIU's way of handling things. If only this or that was here or not here.....it would have gone completely differently!Gotta make things needlessly complicated, I guess. If Androssi had just fucked off out of the way and taken the other liabilities with her, Baam would have dealt with the snake already.
I think both are MTL.Which translations are more accurate? I am reading Cosmic-scans's version and certain things seem rather different.
Probably under house arrest.Where is Vincente btw.
Stuck in the Po Bidau mothership with the rest of them. It's too bad he couldn't give control over to Albelda and join the tournament. Would be nice to have a potential winning option that doesn't suck.Where is Vincente btw.
No one notices it's the second time when Androssi can't move, the first was when she met Zahard data...Androssi pretty much confirms SC can upgrade snakes (and/or spin off snake bodies in doing so), so....
She is afraid of Traumerei and doesn't understand that she is a toy who is going to kill everyone and Traumerei is innocent as always.That’s scene was weak as fuck, she was really worried now she is controlling the snake
The High Rankers are top 1000 that is the point: 10 families + Zahard' family, the best are 15 per family around 150 to 200 people plus 1000 or 1500 for the second best ranker... And people from the FUG!Yeah, it seems like things were accelerating TOO fast - if Baam was firmly top100 a lot was said before the break about SIU "painting himself into a corner."
Yeah i agree we knew some high rankers that we know are weaker than some advance rankers we have seen fighting like madoracoNo one notices it's the second time when Androssi can't move, the first was when she met Zahard data...
I wonder why.

At least the High Rankers have to be the top 3000.
