Ayo im readin chapter 1029 rn, and there’s just no way Sanji will lose his emotions right. That’d be fucked up
Nah he did 💯

ultimately
Bruh
Please read the channel description. This channel is intended for serious theory discussion, not casual conversation

aight all good 
Bye bye
This isn't a good argument. You can't just say "since time travel exists, any theory can also be true". That isn't the intention of this channel. If you want to discuss head canon, the manga channels are more appropriate. But what you are saying is "well if anything is possible, then this theory is also possible". We ask that people have more justification than that for this channel, as per the channel description
What do u think the legendary df is
ummm ok😂
Tbh the oil thing doesnt make sense
But when you were talking about gears that kinda
Let's just let the topic change to something else
I wanna know what u think
All ik is that luffy has probable evidence but meta wise doesnt line up tama has some inconsistency and that the df has to be something not op and not obv otherwise the renaming is pointless
And that chopper is a good candidate because of the way hes potrayed and the vagueness of his fruit but its still sounds iffy
People defending so bad the idea of Luffy having a special devil fruit when he's 1000x cooler as the guy who manages with a meh df to defeat the world's greatest powers
Thats wat im sayin i dont want it to be luffy
But some evidence kinda looks like its going that way
I mean, there isn't any aside from being one of the many, many active right now in Wano. All things considered it may as well be Apoo
(for the thick ones, no, I'm not proposing it's Apoo)
zunesha is pluton theory from morj
But you know which DF has spent several years locked behind a couple of seastone cuffs and could only activate now?
Wah
what about it
idk i just wanna know what u guys think
it seems more plausible than most theories I read. pluton being punished for a crime and also the theme of a weapon existing is not a crime in and of itself. also ships having klabautermann
Elephant go brr
tusks transform to lasers
its on the moon
All we have so far is that Uranus is the Greek god of sky, so people speculate sky related powers
An old one was Uranus being capable to manipulate weather, and being in Dragon's hands
to play devil's advocate a bit, luffy doesn't make any sense science wise what with the inflating a thumb bone which then goes to the leg bone and inflating all of his muscles just through his forearm
there was a wind fruit in an anime filler arc near skypiea so maybe that guy was actually canon and an ancient weapon
@modest skiff what BB theories you got DMed to you?
i think dragon having it makes a bit of sense because there's already an ancient weapon in the pirates' hands and it could make sense for the revolutionary army to have one because it's a different faction, tho idk what that would say for pluton and the navy
Pluton is in Alabasta most likely. So could be Vivi the one that finds it.
pluton is a ship tho
if we're talking about the same one from 800 years ago there's no way it's in a repairable state
wood rots and metal rusts, and it all erodes in a desert
It's an ancient weapon so probably can sustain the time better. And the theory is that it is in some kind of underground shelter.
even if it was, it would need constant maintenance even if it was made from treasure tree wood
800 years is a really fuckin long time
and it's possible that work was being done by the kings of alabasta before cobra and it somehow didn't get passed
ok now actually considering that possibility it's looking more sound
People were suggesting Luffy’s DF may be that mystery devil fruit, but I think his fight with Enel pretty much disproves that
Also, I think in order for the gorosei mentioning that they changed the DF’s fruit to make sense narratively, I think it has to be a devil fruit whose name we’ve already “know” about
also the mystery one being luffy's would cheapen his story imo
Honestly I’m thinking it’s Kaido’s fruit, since its a fish devil fruit when df users can’t go in water
Which sounds like a fake name to me. And only Big Mom said the name of the DF, not Kaido.
But it wouldn’t make sense for the Gorosei not to know
aren't there other fish fruit too?
No
but the naming convention suggests it is what i'm saying
unless the name is made up i guess
I get it's counterintuitive but don't think on Kaido's DF as an aquatic creature. Despite of being catalogued as a fish
well no it's an azure dragon
does make you wonder on what the other models are in that zoan class

bruh
Also, i don’t think the DF can be one whose name was revealed in an SBS
which ones are those?
oh yeah
cause oda doesn't want supplemental material to be necessary
is tama's the kibi kibi no mi or something?
Ye
well it does make kibi dango so the name seems fitting at least
So it’d have to be a df that
- the “name” has been revealed narratively
- the character who said the DF’s name would be basing it off the devil fruit encyclopedia
- the gorosei were not aware of this fruit until Wano
i think the second condition isn't necessarily true
Well, it wouldn’t make sense if the audience already knew the real name, for Oda to make such a big deal out of this
i suppose, but the source wouldn't necessarily have to be the df book, or at least the df book wouldn't have to be shown as the source narratively
so a fruit couldn't be ruled out by lack of portrayal of the df book
Yes, thats not what I’m saying. I’m saying the character who said the “name” of the DF would have to have only World Government-approved knowledge
I.e. the devil fruit encyclopedia
or be masking it purposefully ofc
gtg
In my opiniom it is Toki’s Time Fruit. I suppose they got to know that samurai are alive for some reason and connected facts. And Toki was, in fact, travelling in time before she met Oden
Kinda sus honestly that Kozuki Toki had a fruit called the Toki Toki no mi
For some reason interesting. Though I think that might be true as she jumped in time so she knew what happened before the void
Hey guys,i think that kaido is an ancient giant
Is that true?,he has horn like oars and oars jr.
Hes an oni like a demon orc thing hes not a giant
Brook’s soul fruit is the fruit in question from the end of the current chapter. It’s actually the Jesus fruit, that’s how brook came back from the dead and how he runs on water. Also, something something ice powers don’t make much sense
…ok
Aaah ok
So,cipher pol aigis 0 is in level of yonko commander?
Or admiral of the fleet
They are more than a vice admiral but less than an admiral
Big mom and kaido alliance vs new marineford,they do more than whitebeard?
The masked ones are yonko crew level
💯
Well if king and queen arent packed
Rocks d.xebec is stronger than an admiral?
Rocks 2 strong
not a bad idea
better than people voting kid or toki in #events
And, roger taked the name "ace" for his son because this is the name of his sword?
Yus
the final strawhat member will be bartholomew kuma
each of the eleven supernovas fulfils a role on their ship that is analogous to a member of the strawhat crew, so law is a doctor like chopper, kid is a shipwright like franky, etc
the only supernova who doesn't have a strawhat counterpart (apart from blackbeard) is urouge, who could potentially be described as a ship's priest or chaplain
the only character who could fill that role is kuma, who is often depicted dressing like a priest, carrying a bible etc
additionally kuma has a longstanding relationship with the strawhats and a tendency to help them out for no reason, oda's way of ingratiating him into the crew
My main objection to it being Zunishia was that he/she was 1000 years old.....but then mr morj pointed out, not exactly.....damn it, it's back on the table as a suspect.
in case anybody is interested:
law - doctor
kid - shipwright
apoo - musician
killer - chef
hawkins - navigator
bonney - historian
bege - helmsman
drake - liar
urouge - priest
I don't remember where I read it but Luffy said that his ideal crew would be 10 members, and with Jinbe he already has them
But yamato
ten crewmembers, but not including himself
Kaido and Yamato both are from the Oni clan/race
Yamatos gonna join i swer
I wonder who is the mother because Big Mom was blonde iirc
I think yamato will not join the straw hats, he will stay in wano as momo's right hand or something like that
could be but i doubt it, iirc she has been foreshadowed as being wano's protector
Oh yh her devil fruit
I'm pretty sure Yamato is gonna leave Wano and pretty sure with Luffy like Yamato herself said
it's gonna be kuma guys, cmon
👀 edit
.
Yuhhhhh
just because she says it doesn't mean it'll happen, that's why vivi isn't a member
"Who will join the straw hats" is a conversation we have in the #manga and #also-manga channels rather than theories channel, so please move this discussion there
True
Try to live in denial but Yamato for nakama is the most likely outcome.
if you say so 🤷♂️
More like morj missed this
you're right, it's off the table again.
I had a theorie
someone tell mr morj he's super wrong again
Im-sama is from the void century,but he used the special cirugy of the op op no mi,so he was inmortak
As the great @amber oar once said "Youtubers are wrong until proven otherwise. Tiktokers are always wrong.". If a theory came from youtube, assume it is terrible
Inmortal*
chapter?
822
YouTube videos have a comment section. You can tell him yourself
you're right
I need to reread the entire manga again.
a lot of youtubers who get too popular eventually just start ignoring the comment section - and honestly I can't blame them
The sea sinking Kaido when Zunesha inevitably lands a hit. Maybe the dragon that's like a fish can breathe underwater though who knows.
it is more likely that Luffy will defeat Kaido than Zunisha
Based on the is the WG looking at Wano or Zunesha conversation. Do we know these ships are outside of Wano? It's all shadowed from what I'm seeing. Probably missed something.
I think we see those characteristic stone pillars of Wano next to the ships
I'm just remembering the capture Robin convo also
You think we don't know green bulls fruit because it will be similar to this legendary one?
Luffy has to defeat Kaido, its a point of narrative. Oda can't redo Wano and luffy is at the point he has to out do the old gen Yonko
I agree. But that is why I think it is unlikely that we have a (at least proper) fight between Kaido and Zunisha. If Zunisha lands a few blows on Kaido it would take away a lot from Luffy's accomplishment
I think the capture Robin and CP0 is a throw back to Enis lobby. WG just expects them to be able to do it again but the SH have moved passed that and, like smoker, the distance between them is now too great
Aye! If I'm honest, Zunisha is likely there as a way of throwing off the massive WG fleet arriving at Wano and will be there to protect their independence from the WG, under the flag od the SH
Zunisha sinking Jack was well earned and worked within the context of the story. Zunisha taking on Kaido does not
a lot of youtube theorists dont miss this but dont put it because then obviously itll invalidate the video
I watched the Morj video and was a bit disappointed that he did not address that one of the main plotlines of Water Seven was to get a shipwrights blueprints for Pluton. That goes against the idea that Zunisha is Pluton because all of a sudden that ancient weapon is a devil fruit user instead of a ship you have to craft
He's saying pluton is still a battleship that can be crafted, but the ship ate this giant elephant fruit.
oh I see
Granted, there are still other issues
Oda likes his crazy nonsense but that's pushing it. He'd play a ship eating an animal fruit for a joke or outright but Zunisha is already a giant water walking elephants, that's an island and home of the minks
That would be a cool call back to Going Merry
so a warship committed a crime and was forced to eat a devil fruit to roam the seas
void century logic
😂😂 I totally forgot it also committed some grave crime and has been walking for like a thousand years... I'm gonna go with Zunisha is only a redherring and foreshadowing of a smackdown on the WG fleet waiting for the Kaido/SH fight to end
I definitely think it is as simple as the Sulong forms drew Zunesha there. Momo will have Zunesha stop the bombs. Zunesha will not survive. Minks will move to Wano.
In theory Momonosuke could have simply told Zunisha to walk to Wano and wait for some signal since it seems to obey him. That would be a somewhat flat narrative reason for the elephant to be there though, especially if it happens to die after the events
The bombs are set up for adult mono to come into his own and I don't think Oda will kill off the giant elephant. I reckon it'll kick some ships about, and then come to rest having paid for whatever crime. Sorta like the sea emporers in the fishman arc, so Momo can call on Zunisha for help... more power behind d the SH allies
that would be very convenient
I wonder though, how large is the WG fleet? Is it even capable of invading Wano let alone ascend the waterfall?
Yeah but it's been a very long set up to come to fruition
I don't think that they can do a bustercall
From the WG panels, it looks like they sent the fleet, CP0 not only for Robin but likely to Luffy as he's the biggest threat to them and they are just waiting for everyone to be just exhausted enough to do it on the sly
Could the whole populations of Wano move to live on Zou in case Wano get destroyed?
From the time we saw a photo of luffy and the giant straw hat, like at one of the ancient "weapons" to now, it has been an age. Not only in actual time but in terms of the manga story line. There is no going back, so all the elements really have to start tying together. It's why I highly doubt the renamed fruit is for anyone but luffy, as at this point any other character would not have earned it amd would likely require a whole side arc to make it work. Zunisha aint gonna fight Kaido as there is no set up or pay off. Historically, the SH crew have fought and won by the skin of their teeth, only to then be surrounded by marines, only to have some epic payoff from another character helping them like Bon Clay etc
Kaido can make Zunisha fly with his clouds and it will be the most effective strategy against him... Its not a regular foe, its a walking elephant island; moreover, Kaido flies. On a one on one, Kaido always wins.
That is possible, but it might be difficult to do so with Luffy on his tail
Whether or not they fight depends on what Zunisha's purpose for being there is and whether or not it interferes enough with Kaido's plans for him to intervene
Scoop up his buddies and keep looking for something that got destroyed.
Zunisha will more likely interact with Momonosuke somehow
If he really was ordered to protect the minks would it be like a golem. He only follows it specifically. I like the theory that Kozukis were involved in the order and that's why zunesha listened to momo
Oh yeah I think zunesha is done lol he's there for the bombs
So what if all of the ancient weapons are alive and went into hiding to not let the wg get them. Like if Pluton ate the df to become Zunesha.
Poseidon shifting the ocean currents to make it difficult to catch her.
And Enel on the moon
So the gorosei fruit is enel's?
I'm more going at uranus being Enel
Sky God Zeus lightning if they are all hiding like that
If Enel's devil fruit was the ancient weapon I would guess it would have been called "Jupiter" instead of "Uranus"
Uranus might have to do with rain
and Pluton might have to do with the dead or the underworld - although it is just described as a ship
it shoot real good
Next week
This isnt the channel to ask, but Tuesday
Ohh sorry thxx
what is meant by spoiler?
Where can i ask it?
#manga would be the best place to ask
Ok thx :3
The idea of Zunesha being pluton makes me think of Zunesha shooting a laser from its trunk.
Leaks come out every week before the chapter. They are then discussed in #spoilers
oh ok thanks
It'd be funny is Babanuki turns out to be foreshadowing like that.
mighty morphin elephant danger: laser tusk
it would be awesome if Zunisha turns into a battleship-elephant hybrid form
I can see the Luffy, Chopper and Franky starry-eyed panel now 😂
Lassoo shoots projectiles. Funkfreed is shot out at they transform. Zunesha shoots lasers from its trunk.
pulls a queen 800 years ago
I dont understand whst is oda doing with usopp.
Will he be on the wronv place in wrong moment?
wait where is usopp rn i completely forgot
)with samurai
on live floor?
He's carrying Kiku and Kin
Maybe he will be capture by cp0
and then he escapes by deception
Would be amazing escaping with his liesss
like "no you see i am not god usopp i am usohachi the humble toad oil salesman, i have 10 children and the oldest is seven and i really do need to get back to them"
100% will happen HAHAHAHA
One of the masked members gets KOd and Usopp disguises as them.
and its the tall one
@ im god usopppppppppp and i beat cp0000
Probably talking about his fruit
Usopp disguises himself as this one
i wonder if cp0 agents are gullible enough to fall for toad oil
Can't lol the nose
Maybe he will eat df that hasnt awakened and he will be enemy n 1
eats the third fruit that lets you change size and becomes real warrior of the sea
Out of all we've seen I hope he gets doflamingos brothers fruit if he gets one
yeah we rarely get to see usopp with battlefield prep but he's cracked when we do
Usopp disguises himself as Kaku and they fall for it
i'm sure usopp could pull off yontoryu
Guys, this channel is only intended for serious theory discussion. Not light hearted chit chat. Check the channel description. Light hearted discussion goes in the manga channels
I genuinely think Oda would do that
I'm serious about the devil fruit to be fair
sorry, hard to tell when a convo changes enough to be worth switching over
Have it be both a gag but also a means of telling important info
Like how Kin'emon disguised himself as Doffy
Any worth breakthroughs? Been out a but, interested on what you Lot came up with
I thought about Blackbeard's reason for the yami yami no mi being that it had a fake name by the wg and them that it allowed the user to get a good sleep when they wished. I initially was joking, but I'm thinking about building on it.
Killing someone who you may see as a friend for over two decades just so that you can finally get a night's rest.
do we even know if he wants to sleep?
He may not have a choice in the matter if it relates to his body.
right but is that a motivation he has
An initial one, but developed as he grew up and learned about the world's secrets.
i thought his longterm goal was always takeover
It may not have been the case when he was 12 at the time of joining Whitebeard.
i thought he was an older teenager than that
he did not look twelve
zamn
He was an orphan who likely lived through hell with what the image of him as a child implies.
yeah but the actual in panel time we saw him interacting with the wb pirates for the first time he looked older than 12
I'm mostly interested in him having an initially simple dream of being able to sleep with it developing as he grew up.
there he is about 16 or so
what how
14*
The time Oden met Roger was 26 years ago. Substract 26 from his current age 40 that makes 14
He was 12 as he joined 28 years ago and he is currently 40.
I tied him not sleeping to BB possibly having dissociative identity disorder
When ever he “sleeps” one of his switches take over
yeah that's one of the prevailing theories which also kinda explains how he ate multiple dfs, it would have more of a supernatural element to it tho with his switches being different people who can eat other fruits
it's not fully ironed out but yeah
He could use both fruits at the same time and his personality remained the same I dont think its that
perhaps i misunderstood when it was explained to me then
Only reason i say that is because its not uncommon for manga to make something way more than it is. In Jojo Diavolo has DID and Araki explains it by saying he has 2 souls due to that reason
yeah that was funny
To tldr what DID is, its a disorder that make people have multiple switches. From 1- to even 20. A person switch can have their own personal enjoyment, reaction. Its like a whole new person pretty much from what i know
I'm thinking narratively in terms of how initially innocent dreams become corrupted like how Linlin's dream has caused torturous experiments on children. A child's dream to sleep leading to someone who can destroy the world.
well she's always been good intentioned with horrible consequences
That's why I think Blackbeard's tragedy is starting with a sympathetic desire that unravels to him desiring to bring about chaos.
To the person that reacted with the Whitebeard emote, yes that is a literal thing in Jojo. It only gets weirder
well blackbeard always wanted to do backstabbery to be pirate king
Imo, BB just represents the idea of how people can have the same thing but go about it in very different ways
Perhaps another part is him inheriting the legacy of Xebec from hearing about him in a romanticized fashion that leads him to wanting to recreate a world like when Xebec lived.
Both Luffy and BB wish to be Pirate King but for very different reasons. Luffy wants freedom while BB wants an era of his own
Like he has a corrupted parallel to Luffy's dream of having a party through a dream of bringing about a pirate's paradise that results in untold horror.
Yea
Sacrificing his captain and his crewmates to bring about a world that he thinks would be good.
I think it's more that he wants the pleasure of power so that he doesn't have to feel as awful as he did as a child.
Tbh BB is meant to be a real pirate
Like how Orochi pleasures in devestating Wano and having power for the horrors he lived through as a child.
All the rest of the pirates arent criminals like BB, so him wanting to bring terror isnt out of the picture
Someone who lived through horror only to bring about such horror to others.
I personally dont think BB went through some traumatizing shit like Orochi, but i can see it happening
I think the idea of him not being able to sleep at all and living with nothing is foreshadowing to trauma.
Yea i can see that in the future, kinda like sleeping with one eye open type shit
Always thought it was more than one soul inhabiting his body and one is just winning the war for control. Blackbeard sleeps while the other one is in control. Then the weak soul gets to be awake only at night.
We can talk about newist chapter?
yeah
I still think it gets retconned that he only killed thatch because he ate the fruit and had to
when new spoilers are comming in?
next week and this is not the channel
we don't know yet
#events pretty much has what we determined to be the likeliest answer but no one knows
they already knew about robin's, luffy's would cheapen the story, and chopper is a maybe
the events thing came out as zunesha but that seems a little bs to me
???
She got like devil horns and turned huge
not typical of a paramecia awakening that creates
Utilizing a new technique doesnt mean she awakened, just gained better devil fruit usage. G2/G3/G4 arent awakening.
Right but if we look at every one with devil fruits how many of them have shown a new form here? She's like the only one
It would make sense that the Ohara would have a fruit that the world government was hiding
issue there is that it doesn't act like an awakening
Alternatively why did they want luffys fruit so bad they had cypher poll protecting it
Right to me though regardless a new form can be seen as a fruit awakening even if it isn't an "awakening " it's unlocking the power of the fruit kinda seems the same but that's just my opinion 🤷
He was an ex member of 9 or 0 though
paramecia dfs are still pretty valuable
like as military assets they tend to be pretty damn good
Can zoan type devil fruit can be awakened
woah
That sword is not anywhere close to Zunisha.
maybe the hilt is really small compared to the blade?
No I mean the sword is onigashima which is at the flower capitol which is kilometers away from Zunisha
oh i thought it was in relation to the thing about zunesha killing onigashima
Sorry I’m late to the show, but what fruit does everyone think the gorosei were talking about.
(The logical answer.)
I personally think it’s dragon, but you can see most people think it’s zunesha in #events. Dragon is weird I know but I don’t like the other options
Zunisha as being a legend/fruit or are they talking about zunisha having a devil fruit?
i don't like the holder actually being zunesha
Both
Zunesha is a legend that would have eaten some giant elephant fruit and awakened
Is the most popular theory atm
So after reading 1037 we saw emotion plays vital role in strengthening haki so is it possible that members of germa 66 cannot use haki because the lack of Emotion, I don't remember them using haki once
- If this emotion thing is true then is there any possibility that luffy can also strengthen his haki in same way
he constantly is
So what are the theories of who zunesa is?
Just some elephant who did something bad.
Damn I wonder what devil fruit it ate
I don’t think zunesha could be a zoan user because oda already gave a name to zunesha’s species and it wouldn’t explain how only momo was able to communicate with it
Yeah but it wasn’t 2 way like momo so there’s clearly something else special about zunesha and I don’t think that would work if it wasn’t naturally an elephant thing
i feel like this is more a property of haki and the voice of all things
Zoan fruits all come from species of animals though
Why would oda say zunesha is part of that species if it was a zoan user
Also i feel like having it be a really ancient member of another species that turns into a really ancient elephant instead of just a really ancient elephant would be kinda stupid
I guess we’ll find out in 50 chapters
wouldn't it be next chapter?
Lol
Wishful thinking
whatever, as long as one piece is crazy good next week
I have a theory about how poneglyphs were made
What if they had barrier fruit awakening?
and turned It to a barrier idk
that doesn't make a lot of sense, seeing as the kozuki clan have passed down the stonemasonry of the poneglyphs for generations
how do you make holes on a indestructible stone?
its not seastone
ok then whatever it is
we dont know
it's probably a technique used by kozuki stonemasons
i personally dislike joyboy speculation
Zunesha being joy boy is impossible
but yes, it could aid him.
I really think joy boy from void century is time warp luffy
i think time travel is a weak story device
and this be the reason why there "will be" joy boy
so ig it's a possibility but i don't want it to be true
the giant straw hat could be a time machine
lmaooo
straw hat time machine :)
I dont think that would fit in anyone
it would look ridiculous on giants as well
what chapter is that panel?
wdym
the panel showing the big strawhat
what chapter is it in
i wanna check it
It could be the national treasure.
There's also a huge possibility of It being life.
theres a problem with joy boy theories
bruh it's not even that big
ok but it would fit just like
a one of the bigger one piece humans
joy boy is alcoholic
it would be too small for some of the giants we've seen
like broggy? that mf's head is way too big
giant giant no mi ...
I say joy boy is time warp luffy because Its a historical figure but also someone about to come.
would joyboy be waiting at laugh tale?
or it could be a title but who cares about joyboy it's basically nothing right now
imagine roger laughing at luffy's story in laugh tale
hmmm, possible
there's a lot of peopl predicting that someone's joyboy
but i like the fact that kaido himself denied it
ofc i pay attention whenever it's mentioned but there isn't even enough to speculate on identity at this point
There's an unspoken rule in One piece that It always follow its logic
marie jois, jois boi
you guys think luffy is joy boy?
this is almost nonsense?
even df have kind of logic
obviously the story has logic or nobody would ever speculate on it
I dont think oda will come with cliche "Oh It's joy boy reincarnation!"
yeah mee too
i think that joy boy doesn't sound like a one piece name
so it seems to me more like a title
Bro is dragon xebec son?
Read the channel description. This isn’t for low effort questions like this
Dragon is not dumb as luffy and garp
What if the giant straw hat is some kind of weapon
foolish boi
idk man, it's a fuckin hat
wait
May be joy boy is a gaint
a hat that's passed down in generations
nah the huge one that's just in a vault
gomu gomu no mi awakening stretched it and made it bigger.
Or may be like he used gomu gomu no mi just like luffy and became a gaint like gear 4
that would follow the logic of paramecia awakenings if it just made other things rubbery
he can use his awakened paramecia
little boring tho imo
Some theories say its monkey king fruit
i don't know how strong luffy's awakening would be
i feel like any relations to wukong would be boring
he could probably jump to the moon if he could make anything a trampoline
i thionk it'll only be strong if there's like a lot of buildings around him and he can bounce of it and make him fast
yeah like that one of bellamy's three moves
Monkey king fruit doesn’t explain stretchiness, inflating, electricity resistance
monkey king staff stretches but the other ones don't track
Buddha fruit
so on a flat surface, his awakening is weak i guess
Noah ship on the bible is used to help living beings survive a massive flood sent by god
I think "Im" flooded the world with a weapon or a df and that would explain noah's purpose.
"20 kings moved to mary geoise and founded world government"
The red line is the highest place to survive.
Sengoku has lord Buddha fruit
I really hope that the monkey d. family is not related to wukong
Lol
what if wukong was inside luffy all along sealed
like a tailed beast
monkey d garp monkey d dragon monkey d luffy
man fuck wukong, why wukong, i hate wukong, so many wokongs,
that's a different family bonded through a ceremony
If luffy has 2 grand fathers rocks D xebec and garp
how about Roger THE(D) Goal(Gol)
also *gol d ace
how do you really know what the will of D's are. luffy was even confused about it
except garp and roger
garp does?
well, he hates celestial dragons
No
you don't gotta know void century to hate them
probably he does, cause roger and him are good friends
that doesn't mean anything. But dragon might know stuff
Bro oden knows
oden was roger crew
i mean the glyphs that roger can read and robin too
obviously, he went to laugh tale and back
well roger can hear them not read them
yeah, maybe. that's why he made a resistance group
yeah hear. i remember
Only 3 characters to hurt celestial dragons luffy, dragon,rocks
zunesha seems dead inside. I can tell from her eyes. Oh, those lifeless eyes...
do we even know if dragon did?
i never saw dragon hurt one
Rocks D. luffy
also we don't know that nobody else did
yup, sorry
a moderately strong pirate who didn't care about dying could just murder one
rocks d. xebec what planned all along? or was it just put last minute to make the kaido/ bigmom alliance more terrifying?
well i assume it was planned at least as far back as marineford
yeah, cause you need a D with morals like black beard
cause that's first whitebeard flashbacks
What if he is zunisha
Go D ussop
maybe roger does, and also dark king cause he's like the right hand man
Bro will you like the story if dragon turns out to be rocks son
probably, one piece is crazy good
damn.. that'd be too much
Yes like luffy already has too much background
cause garp was raising kids that isn't even his own.. and he lost them all
like, he wants to turn their life around cause of their background, yet no one wanna be a marine. at least dragon didn't become a pirate
revolutionaries are worse than pirates to the wg
other than luffy's group ig because they are openly waging war
I am doubting oda what he gonna write
he let his kids see the good side and the bad side of the wg, and the good side and the bad side of pirates, and wanted them to make the safe decision
well, dragon is staying true to the D in his name. yet garp just wanna beat someone up
yet beat them up and force them to be a marine
"persuading" them to choose the safe option
garp made change in his prime, but now he's an old guy
well, slight force. he doesn't really cage them up and put inside a program
Like his Island was hidden for decades
how to "persuade" your children
He moved his base within days damn
slap slap, scold, leave, watch them, slap slap, repeat
then left in a jungle to die
leave
Now that's how luffy become stronger
most logical parenting that exists
actually rayleigh did the same thing to him while teaching him haki
good but strict parents, good friends, good surroundings/environment to foster youth
luffy was basically an adult when rayleigh did it
a teenager
Same goes with zoro ge trained with baboons
oh, he really learnt from the boobs
damn, zoro is like the OG almost half to death a lot of times
but basically an adult as opposed to little tiny baby child
zoro had teachers, luffy had family
wrong reply?
NOPE
na man, fuck that,
What was the moment that made you start loving op
since i saw it on tv in my city
Mine was zoro vs mihawk
Bb is 40 yrs
he could just be a descendant of xebec
Bro after hearing these crazy theory's what if i will dissapoint
and he was boarding whitebeard and shanks was boarding roger
con d. oriano
Rocks D shanks
rocks d nami
tony tony no mi
what if a human being ate the human human fruit?
A kid who was working under pirate king become a yonko and fought kaido the strongest creature and still managed to come to marine ford and still had the strength to all the Marines
true/pure human, a celestial dragon
does he change forms like chopper? but just as a human?
Hella sus
i'd rather drown in the ocean that be those fucktards
do whatever you wwant
I am talking about shanks
maybe kaido didn't bring enough people and just couldn't fight shanks
i think it would be like
you can do the same point distribution as chopper
I don’t think they fought cuz kaido said to luffy “ it’s been a LONG TIME since I fought someone one on one “. It was only kaido and king who went to marineford. So who knows
you can be a hairy ball but with human hair
oh god
would it be blubber?
it's so gross to thing about it
instead think about arm point and jump point being real beefy
human hair is so different from animal hair. you'll just look like a ball of pubes
You guys think it was luffy fruit WG was talking about. I don’t
They said it’s been awakened right ?
damn, that'd be OP, but still a human tho. you'll just look like a big guy
and then you get real small with big head for brain point
i don't think he awakened it already
its luffy's fruit because...
IT'S RUBBER NOT GUM DAMN!!
nope. they're talking about the moon fruit
Gomu it has both properties of gum and rubber
gomu is rubber.
Also luffy was using gear 2 and 3 at the same time with ryou and advance conq. I don’t think there’s a reason to use gear 4th since it takes too much haki. I still think next chapter kaido gon whoop him
yes ofc, luffy can split himself apart like gum and join together again
Kaido probably love taking the hits
gum is just convenient translation for eng dub
masochist, introduce him to bdsm, although the only person capable of it would be big mom
💀
Crazy how luffy used gear 2 and 3 same time against Moria and almost die doing it. While rn he’s using it casually fighting kaido getting hits in
I think he’s going to big mom castle to steal the ponoglyph
i wonder. What if luffy kills kaido, and gives the fruit to usopp. what a nice yet dark theory
Yes luffy pro fighter
usopp doesn't want a close combat fruit
i wonder, can't he ?
what's he gonna do with physical beef, he would need something that propels stuff or lets him hide
he can
Sunachi !
he always killed people what are you talking about
he doesn't care, he doesn't think ahead about a person taking revenge in the future, he just finishes the job as soon as he can
Yes the only person who is good yet killed some one is zoro and lucky roo
no
i think he has he just doesn't say that he has or will because it's a policy of oda's to not have someone say that unless they're a really bad guy
you forgot about chopper in skypeia
you think someone normal would survive a giant hand in haki?
sanji killed ball man with concasser
This is not the channel to discuss "who kills people". Please read the channel description @inland wave @lapis anvil
that would be 999999 marines killed by luffy
I would
whoops sorry
This channel is not intended for general chit chat. Move this conversation to #manga or #also-manga
i see
Has anyone theorized that usopp is a descendant of the giants yet? Not only is he usually connected with them throughout the series, but it seems like him and his dad don’t have last names, and I think that all the giants in the series only have one name.
Honestly I don’t see usopp being a descendant of a giant.
get some roles at #old-role-info
and damn man your theory was just chef kiss
and the quote was absolute fire
So one piece end will be close when we meet a pirate with a patcheye.
In norse mythology Im is the son of Vafþrúðnir, a wise giant who has a battle with odin in a game of knowledge, and we know odin has a patcheye
Is this relevant?
who has a eyepatch though ?
rocks ? gaban ? are they ded
no
Maybe its luffy
Eye patch dude is gonna be a new character
same, or joyboy lol. not many options left.
question is who will have the trademarked pirate parrot?
Rocks can honestly stay dead or missing forever
I can't fully expand my opinion on "Rocks is alive" theories without falling in other series spoilers (which is forbidden), so I'll just resume it in saying it's a shit idea
That said, Rocks doesn't look much of an eyepatch guy does he
Hellhound rocks 
You're welcome
He's got them Mingo forehead veins tho.
The new awakened Devil fruit deal seems like we got plenty of good options, what’s everyone’s best theory??
Its joyboy
For all we know Rocks' face could change
The initial silhouettes for Kaido and Big Mom are pretty different from the ones we see
If I’m being honest I could see rocks being related to luffy s family. Look at dragon and look at the silhouette for rocks
I could see rocks being dragons father
And that’s why he’s the most wanted man
Maybe the devil fruit was so powerful during the void century, that when it "disappeared" it was their opportunity to take every measure, cause it may reammerge at any time, so their safest bet was to rename it and give it a crap description in the DF encyclopedia.
Or maybe, they named and gave a description of the fruit that would have been dangerous, like calling it "this devil fruit reduces your lifespan" or "it provides you awesome strength, but at the cost of a limb" or something.
To not only hide it, but spread false information to reduce it's desire.
Who can give a theory regarding the devil fruit in the latest chapter?
This guy can
this DF will transform you in a pig
Whoah, so Zunesha is the advanced warship that is capable of mass destruction?
Someone gave an explanation of how tama’s fruit relates to the moon before and it made so much sense
Oh there you go haha
Rocks is dead and he had the two eyes in the little we saw
I like the ideas that
Posiden = Reincarnation weapon
Pluton = Actual island destroying weapon
Uranus = Devil fruit weapon
I don't like the theory that every one's a reincarnatioon, cause it takes away the impact of Tom and other shiprights protecting the blueprints, plus I hink it takes away how special Shirohoshi's ability is
^^^^^
Someone before said it was luffy’s fruit but I don’t get how it can control zunesha ??
Oh shoot, I'm glad I was able to read this theory. It makes a lot of sense!
In a manga panel
It's Tama's kibi kibi no mi

Silhouettes can be different from the final form tho
We saw it with Kaido and big mom
Not saying he definitely wore an eyepatch but we shouldn't trust silhouettes too much
why draw both eyes then? specially when one side of the face is dark and you can perfectly hide the missing eye
Personally, I think there are too many holes that need a lot of twisting to explain why Luffy's DF is the legendary one they're talking about. I think it might be Dragon's DF who is labeled as the "most wanted criminal" in the world. I think that title belongs to someone holding a legendary DF. The WG might not have known Dragon awakened it until he made a move to save Sabo. He might've come to Wano on Zunesha with the Revolutionary Army and the minks. Idk what Dragon's goals are but he might be asking for help to save Sabo. That would also provide backup to face against the Marines just outside of Wano since no one on Onigashima is ready to face them now. It's also fitting that another dragon is here in Wano.
Okay, gonna leave this convo because you aren't serious nor rational
when oda reveals the complete face, do you think it will look like hakuba?
if your conclusion is that the silhouette itself has the look of hakuba without having seen the complete face, what do you think people should think of that conclusion?
Wait what’s law’s devil fruit awakened again
We are probably going to see a rocks flashback soon enough cuz of Kaido sama
Very interesting!
I don’t think it’s luffy’s fruit cause it seems like the gorosei is talking about a fruit they haven’t even seen, and the WG was guarding the gomu gomu + luffy has been a pain in their ass for like 2 years
I dont think Shanks stayed longer than a day there
Is Shanks joyboy
Why would Shanks stay longer than a day there? He went there to talk to the Gorosei about a person and then left
Yes they were waiting for the rght time to attack
if you think shanks stopped for an extended period of time at mariejoa then you're mistaken, he's still a pirate and an emperor at that, just because he's granted a meeting doesnt mean he can stay however long and do whatever he wants
But he’s not like how the joyboy is supposed to be so thats why the gorosei work with him.
u and ur alts annoy me 
if you stop being aggressive and chill for a bit, people will engage with you my dude
Don't worry about him
So i've been deciphering this panel for a little while and my conclusion went to this!
so, what if the panel goes like this
"that fruit(the fruits true name) is but a legend<--- because the true name is what the legend is!, even for us" "its hasnt awankened for centuries"
soo what if they just found out the true name of that fruit and now they know its real name and they ask the question
"how else do you explain the world govt giving a specifc devil fruit a unique name?!" <--- why would they even ask that question in the first place if they JUST realized that the fruit is nothing but a legend!
and the last panel is the answer <----- They were hiding the fruits true name from the annals of history?!"
No one should engage with the guy 
LOL

Have we ever seen dragon without his cape? Because I have a theory 
what
are you saying that Dragon is a Lunarian????
because uh
he isnt
He doesn't have white hair and he doesnt have the wings
whats the theory? dragon has black hair
Dye jobs are a thing
Just like a crocodiles face, have you seen dragons hair in episode zero? 
he just doesnt have tattoos it pretty much looks like he is just younger
What did he say? 
something about headcanon and shoehorning stuff, doesnt matter
Alt guy is funny
are your theories informed by a sense that one piece is ending in around 5 years? would your theories change if you thought it was 10 more years?
our theories are based on what oda written
No cause i dont believe oda with the 5 years
doesnt matter with it being 5 or 10 years
I imagine lunarians have a connection to actual dragons
and neither the skin color
Weve only seen one Lunarian. There could be other variations.
unlikely
The beast pirates say that the WG would pay anyone who's seen anyone with "Dark skin, sliver hair, and giant wings"
we know that these are traits shared by all Lunarians
sorry if this was brought up already but i havnt seen any videos or discussions about this yet. I was watching some leak videos on the new pokemon games coming out and there was a reference to the four Chinese guardians and it got me thinking of OP. The four are the Azure Dragon (Kaido), Vermilion Bird (pretty much a phoenix aka Marco), the White Tiger (Yamato) and the Black Yin/Tortoise (which is usually accompanied by a snake). I can see now how Zunisha could be considered a Tortoise as its slow moving and lived for a very long time, but idk what the snake could be. Do you guys think these are just coincidences or is this possibly the inspiration?
Vermillion bird and pheonix is diff though
Orochi
It has been a long standing connection. It was why we thought people thought Yamato would be have a white tiger df but its actually a Kirin which isnt exactly a white tiger but ig itll be close enough.
Dont forget the dragon of the centre being momo
Fact
people have been talking about this for a while but the connections haven't really led to any theories that were proven correct, its always been reverse engineering
ahh ok
Anyways i think its just a frame Oda’s been following. I doubt there’ll be any conclusions from it.
We've got literally three features defining how a lunarian looks (black wings, dark skin, white hair) and Dragon checks exactly zero of them
Could be something like the skypieans and all the other winged variations like Burkans and Jaya
Dragon is dragon
Zoro kills Luffy’s dad
I feel my heart crack
I heard speculation that at the end of one piece zoro will collect luffys bounty is very bruh
Maybe Luffy has to die for some reason and so Zoro will cut down his best friend and captain
lol there’s one more race other than lunarian
look at the way kaidos top three are set up
But if Oda does set up that situation i dont think Oda will actually follow through with it. Itll be more of a fake out imo
Nah but the theory was like luffy turns himself in like roger but zoro collects the bounty
I cant imagine why Zoro would need money though or do that…
I dont thats what its about
it goes #3 fishman = jack , #2 human = queen, #1 lunarian = king, #0 strongest creature = kaido
Well Queen is technically a cyborg
base model human
i don’t think Imu is lunarian
I expect to explore that more in elbaf
….an oni could be what they call that type of giant
Onis are orcs/demons
i keep wondering how many more chapters till the end?
at least 300-400? there's still soo much
yeah i think his command is a hint on how the races in the one piece world are considered based on how they’re treated by the world
I dont think theres another race like an Oni or Orc
No an oni is an orc demon thing
I expect 1325. Or some number with a pun in its japanese name that means something significant
at 40ish chapters per year
govt probably has giant sized kuma cyborgs
bigger than orz
with a bit of luck One Piece ends in 2030
Then less than 1300
yamato is being set up so that we can talk about how luffy is carrying rodgers will
SSG. Possibly
Loki chillin
what happened in alabasta? did i miss something?
…did you not read/watch alabasta?
he might b talking abt what happened in revire or however u spell it
i mean currently around the reverie
Nothing happened ? Or am i wrong
we don’t know everything but the world leaders were talking abt it like it was an inconvenience so they probably handled it
Ooo i c people typing, we about to get essays.
I know a lot of ppl have said the things in the Florian triangle could be other elephants. What if they've all started migrating to Wano and what we actually saw was the Goroseis reaction to an elephant approaching the red line, not Zunesha
That would be an amazing fake out by Oda. But i think its too early for that atm.
Wait are you arguing that they were reacting to the live sight of an elephant from their window at Mariejoie ?
Yea lol
I guess that's possible but it's a bit early to make that stretch I think xd
Maybe they would be a little more agitated than that too. Especially since Zunesha is probably bigger than the Red Line
I think its just zunesha
The blonde guy seemed pretty stressed
How would they cross the Red Line tho?
They're probably taller than the red line
So?
They can just walk over it
Will there be news this week about the next chapter on the week after this?
This was actually a toy dinosaur in the water
Aye. I'd like to present a comprehensive theory on why the renamed fruit has to be Tama's Kibi Kibi no Mi. It's gonna be a few posts long and is an expansion to oli's theory on its true name being Tsuki Tsuki no Mi, Moon Moon Fruit. Kudos to them for providing me with the missing piece to my puzzle.
The Kibi Kibi no Mi and the Minks. A story on Wano's most important national treasure.
Question 1: Why is it the Kibi Kibi no Mi?
First piece of evidence:
Kibi means millet, a type of grain. It references „kibi dango“, millet dumplings, which Momotaro uses to befriend a dog, a monkey and a pheasant on his journey to the island of Onigashima. These dumplings are said to enhance the team's strength. To an extent, the entire Wano arc is a parallel to Momotaro's story.
However, it isn't always kibi dango that Momotaro carries as travel rations. In stories from the Genroku era (late 1600ish), the story had Momotaro carrying tō dango (とう団子, "ten-count dumplings"). See Wikipedia for reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momotarō#Dumpling,_kindling,_animals
Tō dango are made by piercing the dango with a thread, making them look like a bead necklace. Now what is bead in japanese? Interestingly enough, it's 玉 (“Tama”).
Second piece of evidence:
The name is just odd in and of itself. As Tama stated in chapter 914, her dumplings have no nutritional properties. If they were, in fact, made from millet, they would have to be nutritious though, as is the case for all food-based Paramecia fruits we've seen. Examples of this are Perospero's candy and Cracker's biscuits. If it was called Dango Dango no Mi, the name would at least be sufficiently descriptive of what Tama is doing (aka producing dumplings).
As of now, the Kibi Kibi no Mi is the only Devil Fruit producing a food that isn't food. This makes it, in a way, unique.
Footnote: In contrast to Sugar's Hobi Hobi no Mi, Tama's control over animals does not seem to cease when she faints in chapter 912. Similiarly, after Kaido intercepted Speed and Tama in chapter 923, Speed retains her loyalty despite her master being unconscious.
Conclusion:
If the WG went out of their way to rename a specific devil fruit, surely they also downplayed the powers of this fruit. Imagine the Kibi Kibi no Mi's entry in the Devil Fruit encyclopedia like this: “This fruit allows the user to produce millet dumplings without any nutritional properties.” Who in their right mind would give up their ability to swim to produce dumplings that don't even quell hunger? The whole thing checks out somehow.
Question 2: What is the true name of the Kibi Kibi no Mi?
See the pinned post by @tired osprey. The Kibi Kibi no Mi's true name is Tsuki Tsuki no Mi, the Moon Moon Fruit. What oTama pops off her cheek is not kibi dango, but rather tsukimi dango, dumplings eaten during the mid-autumn moon-viewing festival. Go read the theory, it's amazing. For the sake of readability I'll still refer to it as Kibi Kibi no Mi for the time being.
Footnote: In chapter 973, the song Hiyori is playing to Oden is called “moon princess”. Oden loves it and asks to have it played at his funeral – which Hiyori never attended. I believe this to be a foreshadowing to the Kibi Kibi no Mi. In the same chapter, Oden advises his retainers to seek out Zou when “that day comes”. Well here we are in chapter 1037, Zou seeking out the retainers. And the party after Kaido's defeat is, at the same time, Kozuki Oden's funeral and Wano's (re-)birth.
Question 3: What's the deal with the Kibi Kibi no Mi and how did Tama get her hands on it?
We've never seen where and how Tama acquired the Kibi Kibi no Mi. As to why that is, I'll redirect you to another theory first, namely the “Tenguyama Hitetsu = Kozuki Sukiyaki”-theory by JubaTheTuba:
#manga-theories message
We'll go forward assuming they are, indeed, the same person. The following segment is entirely based on this premise and therefore highly speculative.
I suspect Sukiyaki at some point in time getting behind Orochi's sinister plan. Maybe he noticed he's getting poisoned and got an antidote from Tsuru, idk. He then proceeded to fake his death and make an escape, as his daughter Hiyori would do 25 years later. Sukiyaki, though, didn't leave before taking the most important national treasure of Wano, the Kibi Kibi no Mi, with him. The fruit was stored in the basement Brook mentioned in chapter 934, sporting a “firm door”, a non-road Poneglyph and a bunch of Kokeshi dolls. Kaido built his castle during the five years Oden danced, so even if he managed to open this room during construction, the fruit would've been gone by then.
This fruit was safeguarded by the Kozuki for centuries. It has to be available when JoyBoy reappears, so it mustn't leave Wano. Finding it outside of Wano would be quite impossible, considering leaving the country is forbidden even for members of the Kozuki family.
Said Poneglyph contains the story of the “unbreakable pact” between the Minks and the Kozuki that Inuarashi and Nekomamushi mentioned in their flashback in chapter 963. Oden also commented on this pact, calling it “a powerful bond” in chapter 973. The fact that the entire Mink tribe would've given their lifes to keep Raizo safe (chapter 816) is further evidence of their unbreakable allegiance to the Kozuki clan. The Kibi Kibi no Mi is an integral part of said story.
Why did Sukiyaki give the fruit to Tama of all people, though? I'm not gonna argue that Tama is a Kozuki, even though it might be. Rather, I guess Sukiyaki knew that when “that time” comes, there has to be someone wielding the Kibi Kibi no Mi. With Momonosuke and Hiyori being absent, the only possibility left was to groom a new “moon princess”.
Here ends the part that depends on Hitetsu being Sukiyaki. The following ideas do work based solely on the assumption that the Kibi Kibi no Mi is, in fact, the Tsuki Tsuki no Mi.
Let's backtrack for a second to oli's theory: They suspected the Kibi Kibi no Mi to be able to turn Minks into Sulong regardless of the phase of the moon. I'll expand on this and argue the Kibi Kibi no Mi is also capable of commanding Sulong-Minks that have lost their sentience and succumbed to fighting frenzy.
In chapter 889 it was established that unless a Mink attained mastery of the Sulong form they will fight friend and foe alike until dying from exhaustion. In chapter 1027 Nekomamushi warns Carrot not to look at the moon and covers his eyes despite having turned into Sulong form a minute ago to defeat Perospero. From this, we can conclude that a even an experienced Mink might attack allies while in Sulong form when there are no enemies present.
This may give us a hint towards what exactly the Minks and the Kozuki bonded about. Perhaps it was a previous user of the Kibi Kibi no Mi that calmed the Minks while they all went haywire and threatened to eradicate their own existence. Interacting with Minks, though, might be a power for which the Kibi Kibi no Mi has to be awakened.
All that being said, there's a few questions remaining:
A) Why didn't Sukiyaki reveal himself in the 5-year-period between Oden's reappearance and the Legendary Hour?
My only guess here is that Sukiyaki didn't believe in Oden overpowering Kaido. Maybe he lost faith in his son after seeing his crotch, like almost all citizens of Wano did. Maybe he deemed it too dangerous to appear, as him being discovered would potentially leave the Kibi Kibi no Mi unguarded. I'll admit this to be the biggest hole in my theory, feel free to fill it with your own ideas.
B) How does all this connect to the Gorosei's conversation?
In the japanese release, Gorosei Gorbatschow uses the term 覚醒 (“kakusei”) when exclaiming that specific devil fruit hadn't awakened in centuries. That term has been used to describe a Devil Fruit awakening like Kidd's and Law's. As we've speculated before, an awakened Kibi Kibi no Mi might be able to command Sulong-Minks.
All that being said, it is but one line that we are missing for the Gorosei's conversation to make perfect sense. That line goes something like “By the way, with the SMILEs flipping on Kaido and a bunch of Sulong-Minks fighting for the Kozuki heir, is this possibly that devil fruit's doing?”, to which Gorbatschow replies: “Impossible! Even to us, that fruit is but a legend!” From the WG's perspective, a bunch of Sulongs retaining their sentience ought to be a pretty unexpected development, thus wrongly attributing it to the awakening of the Kibi Kibi no Mi instead of the actual full moon.
C) Why did the Kibi Kibi no Mi become an enigma even to the World Government?
Well, not because the fruit reincarnated only on Wano, but because it has been locked in the Kozuki's basement for 800 years, given that Hitetsu is indeed Sukiyaki. If he's not, maybe the fruit indeed looked weak enough for nobody to eat it in centuries – and those who did maybe didn't have the guts to forcefeed their dango to wild beasts. Another hole, I'll admit.
That's it, thank's for your attention, much obliged
fucking incredible
bravo 🙇
Thx a lot
I was about to say who tf yoinked olis and earls post but then he gave credit 
@gloomy canyon pin
you should give your theory a title
somebody is gonna yoink my hiyori theory
this started a year ago as a shower thought tbh: "tf happens when tama feeds dango to minks?"
i thought of turning them sulong but i was lacking a solid argument til your tsuki post
so i inherited your idea's will i gues idk
Gorgeous theory. Do you think the fruit is the entire reason Wano got closed off ?
nah
nope. protect literacy of the poneglyph language is at least equally as important a reason
I mean we know the reason. The WG tried to take over wano but ryuma defended it so they closed down
Momo existing is also important since he was most likely a figure that was waited for
Are we sure they only locked down afterwards or were they closed before too? iirc it's the latter
One thing I feel has yet to be explained is why the focus on the fruit's name specifically.
I understand the Elders's final lines as such :
"That fruit is a legend. It doesn't exist.
- Oh yeah ? Well if it's not real why did we have its name changed to a fake one ?
- That's because we needed the original name to be erased from history."
As in, even if the fruit is pure fiction, we still need to erase its name because we don't want the name itself to be known at all.
To me, none of the possibilities that have been proposed so far have been able to explain why a fruit's name by itself could be a threat to the World Government.
imo that would be tied to the legend, presumably from the VC, just like the WG is trying to erase everything from VC, they wanted to erase this fruit too.
But you can not simply erase a fruit, so instead they erased the name of it.
We have sun god nika so I guess there's also moon god(dess) xyz. If the Gorosei shanghai people who dare mentioning nika I guess they'd change the name of a moon fruit as a simple precaution.
Also the fruit was renamed ages ago, the legacy of its name was probably much widespread than today. There's no better eraser than time.
Like, I'm not so sure about the Sukiyaki thing and the fruit being a relic of sorts
But I'd bet on it being the Moon fruit and having some sulong-related effects
Thanks for the praise btw
If this gets pinned I'd call it "How to tame a Sulong (with dumplings)"
Oli never smiled so much in the server before reading that theory
This is why this channel is so great and why its so important we keep it tidy and well moderated to attract people like Oli and Badoulin. Really happy to have your contributions guys.
you're thinking way too highly of me, I can barely write,** but for Badoulin, yes. **

most of it is what i've been saying too fool.
great theory
B) How does all this connect to the Gorosei's conversation?
I'd like to add Zunesha to this. The former user of the kibi kibi no mi is the one that sentenced Zunesha to walk for an eternity. The gurosei knows from the legends that the fruit and Zunesha are associated, so they would naturally talk about the devil fruit after hearing the reports of Zunesha arriving in Wano.
A) Why didn't Sukiyaki reveal himself in the 5-year-period between Oden's reappearance and the Legendary Hour?
I'd think it could also be partially shame. He is a samurai after all. But because of his responsibilities to the kozuki legacy and the poneglyph he could not simply commit seppuku as would have been expected of a samurai. Instead he threw away his name and continued on living as a hermit. SUNACHI!
This one makes a lot of sense. I would also argue that the crime probably took place in Wano itself and Zunesha was forbidden from ever approaching it again, hence why its appearance there signaled a possible awakening of the 'punisher' fruit
We've had this discussion a couple times, but I really don't think the Elders were on the phone with the CP guy on the ship. They weren't reacting to Zunesha's arrival, but simply continuing with their conversation. I like Badoulin's hypothesis much better.

Damn that's genius
who has the moon fruit?
has anyone ever wondered why devil fruit users become weakened by seastone or water? is it possible that there is some curse that needs to be lifted? will we ever get an in universe explanation for this phenomenon? will it have to do with EOS resolution?
Usopp has made lies about being a brave warrior of the sea and fighting Giants
Usopp’s lies have been turning into truths
Usopp has met Giants Dorry and Broggy teaching Usopp about their techniques
Joyboy he is nicknamed the Sun God
Usopp has shown up as Sogeking and Sogeking’s mask is symbolized as the sun a brave warrior of the sea
That’s 1/3d of joyboy at that moment at dresserosa Usopp saved the tontatas and Hajrudin another Giant he was regarded as a God
Water 7 Usopp saved 2 more Giants freeing them and cleared up a lie about Dorry and Broggy
Usopp has a huge relationship with Giants at this point and was regarded as a God and had a sun mask
Usopp is the only one who has not seen Big Mom used the giant’s technique there is importance
There is the story of a david and the goliath, Elbaf will have Usopp beat a Giant with a sling shot
Usopp is really important relationship with Giants
Joyboy: Sun God Giant
Usopp: Sun mask, huge relationship with Giants and was even called a God by a Giant
Conclusion: Usopp is Joyboy
I agree on Zunesha being sent strolling by the Kibi Kibi no Mi, directive being something like: "You will not stop wandering until the one who inherited my will commands you otherwise." I don't think you need devil fruits to inherit wills as evidenced by Roger and Luffy, so that heir is momo.
I guess when Momo left Zunesha after their lengthy conversation he told her to keep around Wano until he commands her to act, which we see now. Not sure about the Gorosei already being aware of her though.
joyboy is nkt confirmed to be nika oda said nika will apear in person next time
Then Usopp has inherited the will
Is Joyboy nicknamed to be the sun god? I dont recall this
Im personally a fan of Usopp being Nika and Luffy being Joyboy and have always considered them 2 separate entities.
I’m pretty sure he was referred to as sun god but I’m up for this theory too both can be either
Nika has been said to "liberate people by bringing them joy" or something which sounds much like the idea we have of Joyboy
Usopp and Luffy both being Joyboy or 2 halves make sense too
But the thing about Usopp and Giants is really strong
Well if Nika and Joyboy are completely different people then we don't really have a reason to expect someone to be their reincarnation. That's specific to Joyboy mostly.
Ya I’m all for supporting this theory
Also Joyboy sure as hell isn't a confirmed giant, that's speculation based on the giant straw hat. Personally I don't really love it
If there’s an Elbaf deity, I’d like Usopp to be connected to them instead. I don’t think Luffy is joyboy anyways
Luffy draws everyone to him
Usopp kinda has liberated the underground Dresserosa
Okay but if Luffy is epitome of freedom then he should be Nika since Nika liberated slaves
Usopp being connected to Nika was only limited to the Dressrosa arc, which had an overall theme of oppression.
aight fair
Usopp did say he had Conqeuerer's haki at dresserosa so Elbaf Usopp may get it
Perhaps the sun worship on Elbaf has relation to Nika.
Possibly but I don’t think the history of slavery and giants are all that connected. Could be tho.
I used to think Loki was gonna relate to Usopp (cuz they’re both tricksters) but Loki turned out to be someone real.
We have seen a good deal of enslaved giants.
That was limited to those few by the marines tho. In the Big Mom flashback.
Nika would have to liberate far more giants and way back in the past.
There was also the giant slave that Charloss was using to capture Shirahoshi
*way back in the past
Nika is an old concept. I think he’s more of deity to slaves everywhere. Not just limited to one race.
Oh definitely.
😳😳😳😳 wow that is actually a good theory
@edgy viper What do you want me to label your post as for when I pin it?
Zuneisha joyboy
Once the devil fruit user dies so does their power so for this theory to hold true that individual would need to be alive
Do we still not know the significance of the Whale Tree on Zunesha and why it scared Momo?
Not true in all cases, as with moria for example. There is also something that looks like a homie shield in hajrudins crew, probably carmels homie
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that Zeus and Prometheus were holdovers from Caramel?
Pandora is from a fire in Elbaf. Big Mom made Prometheus and Zeus.
Not if that's a special trait of that one fruit, although I don't like the idea.
I'm working out a theory about Awakening where one of the possible benefits could be persistence of an effect after death.
I don't get either reference. What happened with Moria ?
Moria said even if they killed him the shadows would not be released
Really ? But knocking him out did release the shadows
and this is the shield homie i was speculating about
Thats because Moria sucked in all the shadows into himself and couldnt hold them
prob another weapon/devil fruit infusion
what if Don Krieg is Who's who
I would prefer Usopp being Joyboy instead of Luffy
I dont like the way they indicate that Luffy is some chosen person by fate kinda makes all he accomplished until now not so special
Big Mom probably pre supplied some homies and/or weapons to the giants before they all cut ties.
yeah thats possible
So from rereading chapter 463 I think I understand that Moria's power (regarding zombies) comes in two parts, which are 1) the ability to move shadows around and implant them into other bodies, and 2) the ability to have the resulting zombies obey his orders.
Once implanted, shadows stick to their new bodies without needing Moria's power holding them inside. That's just their new body now. His power is only responsible for having the zombies obey his orders. Therefore if you knock out/kill Moria, the zombies will stop obeying him forever, but they won't come back to their original body by themselves.
All this to say that I think Moria's power is still deactivated completely when he dies. As in all "active effects" are removed.
while this may seem silly, I can kind of see this happen. One thing I think will happen is that after Luffy defeats Kaido or during the fight, Kaido will tell Luffy about taking on the role of Joy boy and how he tried to do it and failed and if Luffy wins, he could "joy boy". I can see Luffy refusing to take the role of joy boy cause despites all the hints, Luffy dont care and he just wants to have his own adventure. He dont want to take hte role of someone else (and this will also teach Yamato that she dont need to take the role of Oden)
So...
What would happen to the zombie after Moria's death?
I assume they no longer have to obey him and get the personality of their shadows' owner
well shadows return to their original users
I'd say something like that. Maybe you can claim back your shadow if you make contact with your zombie or something ?
good analysis, i didnt reread it myself recently but you are convincing.
Maybe the zombie purifies themselves too
I guess that's up to each person
it's not that Luffy is taking the role of joyboy Kaido may recognize luffy as joyboy, although Usopp has had more of the story elements backing him up but I am accepting that Usopp will play the role of nika
Forgot to add pic
(wrong quote)
I honeslty think Nika (the sun god) is Joy boy.
I mean Luffy did make Moria do it
Alt story where Free Rumia zombie travels to meet Laboon?
ya but seeing how Usopp and Luffy are having similar situations happening they both could end up splitting the role to Joyboy for Luffy and Nika for Usopp
I mean, maybe, but honestly, I doubt the roles will be split.
or maybe both will have the same role as Usopp will be Joyboy for the giants and Luffy is joyboy for the world government
hmm, that is a interesting way to think of it
like how the void century is lost the world will always hear things different from eachother and alot of stories will be different
doubt it. its a heavy title even Kaido chased but admitted defeat. can't see any scenario where kaido would look at usopp and say u are joyboy
Talking about Moria's DF
I wonder if we ever see it used to just take someone's shadow, knock them out and then just kill them with the sun.
That does not sound like something that could happen in OP, but it's possible
who said Kaido has to recognize Usopp as joyboy when Usopp gets recognized by Elbaf giants?
Kaido doesn't have the right to determine who is joyboy or not he's not a God
anyone can determine anyone as who and it will make more discourse confusion among the world
since when did elbaf giants got the right ?
all im saying it Kaido is one of the very few that outright talked about it and seems to know the meaning of it is and even he doubted luffy was the one when he assumed he was dying after falling to sea
again these are theories based on what happened and wanna know the funny thing? remember Luffy's first Bounty? 30 million, Usopp also got 30 million on his first bounty
there's parallels that can happen that u may not accept
c'mon, even u should know they don't believe he is an actual God? its like a high praise title they gave in heat of the moment

he's God Usopp to them
we'll have to see what happens from here as arguing is pointless
but as big of a meme usopp is the more we seen his lies become true it makes me believe this "meme theory" is actually true
i mean he is suppose to be the "regular human" in the crew that makes it all the way without any absurd powerups or legends pulling his strings. that would make him one of the coolest imo
Usopp even lied about having conqeurer's haki it's a matter of time before he gets it
Usopp has grown alot
yea he has
I was able to get the japanese and it seems to confirm what I was saying. "The zombies will lose their 'ruler'" "My power is to be the shadows' 'ruler'"
So basically his power is not the one holding the shadows down at all times. Which explains why they would remain in the zombies even if he dies.
its prolly bait from oda xd it would be too predictable now and not to mention he hasn't properly learnt any haki and the final big war arc is next
getting coc without other 3 would be 😬
Usopp has observation
yea but is he fully aware of it? more realistic would be mastering advanced observation haki for his final power
u don't need all 3 to have coc remember luffy used coc in pre time skip
and luffy didn't have observation or armament
haki becomes better in intense situations or combat especially advanced haki even Rayleight stated that to advance your haki you need harder opponents
he only used it subconsciously. then he learnt the 3
anyway
looking forward to his developments
ya for sure good talk
That Moriah panel could make for another Wano/Thriller Bark parallel. If the theory that Tama's fruit controlled Zunesha is correct, then when the previous user died Zunesha lost its master but the effects of the fruit remained
The question would be if Moriah died, would the next person to get his fruit become the shadows new master
Wait that's a great point ! Can't believe this is going somewhere
I guess they would inheritate the old shadow army
I would sure care a lot more about the power to control animals if that includes all animals controlled in the past by another including this world elephant
There's some panels that hint to this about Tama
yo if tama gives zou her cheek dumpling
well he hasn't ever been sick and his sniping skill is way more than you would get from just slingshot practice as a kid, even when he starts
I didn't even think about this theory
Tray you bring up an interesting dilemma. If Zunesha is controlled by the Tama fruit, why could Momo issue commands?
Zunesha is following "orders" and Tama specifically calls for everyone who has eaten a dumpling to help Momonosuke
audibility was a big issue in that fight tho, how would zunesha receive the order
My headcanon is that the original order had a clause for accepting commands from a Kozuki
Big ears
but it's really goddamn far away
That's what I was starting to think, Tray. Perhaps the original moon fruit user was aware of this new dawn and the whole prophecy thing. We know Oden/Momo know they are 100% necessary for opening Wano. It could be because they know only a Kozuki can control Zunesha
my take on it was that luffy and roger, who are of the d. clan, inherited the voice of all things but it's to a weaker extent than the kozuki clan for some reason
Yeah or "never hurt anyone unless ordered by a Kozuki"
not being sick seems fairly common when all the guys said they didn't either and as for shooting its like a normal human that found his one talent and worked at it. nothing out of ordinary there since his dad is a master of it so he prolly has that good vision trait to some extent
yeah but the other people who didn't get sick were sanji and luffy, two absolute superhumans
and do you think a normal person could hit the kind of shots sogeking was over the bridge of hesitation, even with lifelong training?
maybe with a scoped rifle and a ton of training but with a scopeless slingshot?
and even before that usopp's talent was pretty absurd, idk if you've ever shot a slingshot but it's really not easy to make it go where you want
... i don't think it was intended to ever compare irl slingshot to the ones in OP
You guys are right to point out Usopp's aiming ability is just kind of a given and never explained. He's got some totally insane feats of aim
from the pov of opverse its pretty normal is whet im saying
that isn't my point tho?
alright
idk about that, usopp is leagues better than most of the navy's best shots and he's using a weapon powered by his own strength rather than a gunpowder explosion
i only say most because maybe there are some insane people in there that the captains in the enies buster call just hadn't seen
also he knocks people out with metal pellets from the galaxy slingshot on his home island which is pretty silly
also also he's faster than every adult in his village
Usopp definitely stands out to a crazy extent with regards to aim. I would be surprised if it turns out to just be "yeah he's just good at aiming" with nothing else to it
So i have a theory that ive been deciphering within the words being said in the panels of chapter 1037 as i know that oda loves his wordplays at times this theory does'nt nessesarily have evidence involved but more if the conversation was actually talking about the fruits true name the whole time. it does bring another lense about how we see the conversation as well. im also really open to discussion about this.
so, what if the panel goes like this
"that fruit(the fruits true name) is nothing but a legend,even for us"<--- (because the true name is WHAT the legend is(not its untrue name),even for them!) , "its hasnt awankened for centuries"
soo what if they just found out the true name of that fruit and now they know its real name and they ask the question
"how else do you explain the world govt giving a specifc devil fruit a unique name?!" <--- why would they even ask that question in the first place if they JUST realized that the fruit is nothing but a legend!
and the last panel is the answer <----- They were hiding the fruits true name from the annals of history?!"
Being a skeptic about the dynamic of how the panel went, is how would they even know that this fruits name was changed in the first place? well, the old elders must've known (not the blond elder because hes asking the question)the "true names fruit" and linked it with the old one. otherwise how would they know at all!
What do yall think Dragon is doing while Sabo and friends fight GB and WT? I can personally see him being in disguise as a king at the levely, but then will proceed to cause chaos mid levely and announce his position to fuck up the WG
I can personally see it being Uranus, the fruit they're referring too
Referring to when the Gorosei mentioned a Fruit lost to History, I want to bring up the fact the Gorosei we're talking about everything around the time the Reverie happened and at that same point in time Shanks also came to visit them to warn them about a Pirate.
Now there isn't very many Pirates at this point in time we can consider ASIDE from Blackbeard BUT there's a chance he could've went and seen them about Kidd. The Gorosei weren't talking about a Fruit Awakening that happened during Wano but a Fruit Awakening well before Wano happened. That's why one thought it was legend, another said it's been century and the other said "THEN WHY DID THE GOVERNMENT CHANGE IT'S NAME TO WIPE IT FROM HISTORY"
Meaning this was a Fruit Awakening they were told about by a 3rd party. Possibly Shanks and if Kidd had awakened his DF before he even reached Wano it could've been during his fight with Shanks.
It'd be a good way to give Kidd urgency this late in the game
Why would shanks talk about Kidd? I don't see how his devil fruit could be so problematic and powerful, i mean, its not weak but its not that amazing
Well who knows what his fruit is capable of.
Law has a Fruit that gives Eternal Life, I wouldn't be surprised if Kidd's Fruit had some Legendary Status abilities when Awakened.
But since it saps his stamina too quickly he hasn't been able to perfect it.
There isn't very many awakenings we're aware of aside from Kidd and Law and I don't imagine it was Law they were referring too.
and it can't be about a Fruit Awakening on Wano because we have no indication of that.
but have powers more impressive then Whitebeard? Ope ope no mi? Big Mom? Hell, even Luffy, his DF is just mangetism and with the awakening he can now make things magnetic?
bringing up the fact that those panels in chapter 1037 were at the reverie talking with shanks?! woah wait. thats not a fact but a theory
I mean being able to manipulate metal is pretty powerful.
They were DISCUSSING events around the Reverie while also talking about Wano.
We cut off from the Gorosei's convo and the next time we cut to them they were talking about the legendary devil fruit awakening
Meaning not all we're aware of the fruit or even it's awakening meaning they were told by a 3rd Party
Now who told them is a mystery but it could be Shanks not saying it's 100%
Actually yeah he kinda solo'd big mom didn't he?
But Shanks seems like the likely candidate as he's more well informed then most.
Blackbeard is way too obvious so i think it def isn't him
and I don't imagine they renamed his devil fruit either.
Same case with Law, Op Op seems like a suitable name
wait so u think the pirate shanks was talking about is the posssessor of the DF the gorosei were referring too?
Yes
ooooooooh that is a cool idea
and we know Kidd at one point had open conflict with Shanks
The only issue is the dialogue points to just now learning about the fruit while Shanks would have told them about the details of the fruit when he met them.
And I'm saying this as a person that wants Kid to be the person the gorosei talked about.
why would shanks know kidd's fruit is so powerful anyway? also why would they rename the fruit?
first off why would blackbeard be in this right now when were in wano and blackbeard isn't in wano but we have world govt ships in wano as we speak ..... p.s the world govt is not looking for blackbeard at the moment
Blackbeard is likely fighting marines offscreen at the moment
and thus the gorosei would get reports
however, i still wouldnt think it's blackbeard either
BB is fighting marines at the revolutionary base right?
I think they were just going over everything that's been happening and the DF was just a talking point.
no, blackbeard is just going somewhere the marines are going. So most people speculate it's either to alabasta where they think pluton's location was revealed or to the warlords as marines are attacking them all over.
I'd like to see all 5 Yonko on Wano to be honest.
#manga-theories message all i want is to discuss this theory about the dynamic of the discussion
Buggy won't be in wano anytime soon unfortunately
I think the only time we can reasonably get all Five Yonko on a single page staring one another down is Post Wano after Big Mom and Kaido fall.
So the gorosei, the leaders of the world government, didnt learn of this because the previous leaders hid it and now some lackey probably discovered it in some archive?
as BB seems like he'd take advantage and Shanks would move in to stop his plot.
also who do yall think they sent after each Warlord? Because WT and GB are pre occupied and idk if kizaru can solo mihawk
yeah pretty much i mean how else would they know!
I dont expect such a page to occur.
Someone reporting the use of the fruit, and the gorosei figure out which fruit it is based off the power described
One could wish
ahhhh thats another good point as well! soo which agent knew about the fruit that told the world govt? 😉
