User blog comment:FairyTailFan7/Sting's Attacks Are Light Speed?/@comment-26715029-20150820131706/@comment-5303512-20150820161706

Well here are several things that I would like to point out and I hope people read and understand my belief.

1. This argument about if Sting's light based attacks are as fast as the real world's equivalent to the speed of light is really pointless, it is only accurate if the author mentions that it is. Just like Oda confirmed in OP that Kizaru's Pika Pika Fruit light powers are as fast as the speed of light. Although I have to be honest I don't like how Oda uses that logic though, Kizaru's kicks are suppose to be as fast as light which he should have sent his victims have way across the solar system by now but didn't. Then there are a few people that have been shown that can keep up with Kizaru's light speed, Marco of the Whitebeard Pirates and Dark King Rayleigh. Even though I think Kizaru's is a beast, with His Light Based powers combined with his Haki Armor and Obesrvation make him the most broken OP villain in manga history.

2. Unless in the future Hiro wants to go in more depth with Dragon Slayer Abilities, Sting's light based magic stays as it is with the canon information.

3. And even if Hiro does confirmed Sting's light is as fast as light, it would only show that Natsu is capable of being aware of things moving at light speed.
