Ok my take on this chapter in many posts to gain levels faster:

olive sigil
#

Wait before you post

#

Rocks is the fucking G. Holy shit never thought we would get a page of Kaido, WHITEBEARD, and Rocks squaring tf up.

The sheer aura of that page is insane, and we have Kaido hitting Dragon DAY ONE MINUTE ONE SECOND ONE after eating that thang. Bro just SENT it. And I don't feel bad he hit Linlin, it would literally take a full swing for her to notice getting hit, so he had to put some pep on that thang to get her to drop the fruit. And it worked out; Katakuri is my favorite character with my favorite fruit

Poor Linlin

south citrus
#

she didn't even notice.

#

Always taking hits

south citrus
#

she is not human.

#

I have made 6 Yonkou crews. Going for 8. But it's a lot because each is like 11 main crew members. And I drew all the commanders

olive sigil
#

I thought her taking so many hits was because of age but maybe she’s just that unhinged. She doesn’t even bother checking if people are charging at her

south citrus
#

And like 11 shichibukai crews, and 8 other full crews, with like 25 marines, and 30 other random characters

guys im so boreddddd anyone wanna be friends?

thick mango
#

got any one piece theories to cut through the boredom?

#

how possible do yall think a elbaf defeat is? Something like luffy being captured

#

ive been thinking about that the past few days

frail cradle
#

elbaf ending is loki gonna co-captain the giant fleet with hajrudin

thick mango
#

thats the good ending and i agree its more likely. But I do think there is a possibility of a bad ending too

#

a Loki betrayal leading to a luffy capture.

fallen meteor
#

luffy domid

thick mango
#

I wonder if theres like a meta thing going on where we're being distracted by this crazy tale of god valley and it tricks us into forgetting that nothing about loki's role in any of this makes him any more trustworthy and noble

#

sure, maybe he didnt kill his dad, but that doesnt mean he's a good guy

trim lily
#

i don’t really have faith in loki being a real bad guy

#

i’ll be pleasantly surprised if it happens but i don’t expect anything crazy

thick mango
#

not like finger pyramid evil but maybe misguided

#

i think he might want to seek out bb

#

choose bb over luffy

trim lily
#

i don’t think so

thick mango
#

luffy is the protege of the man he hates, shanks. BB is the son of the man he idolizes, rocks

trim lily
#

he wouldn’t know BB’s relation to rocks, and BB is nothing like rocks

thick mango
#

harald knows so maybe loki could know

#

he could know just barely enough

hazy echo
#

Ngl my initial impression was that Loki was going to team up with Kid

trim lily
#

that’d be fun

thick mango
#

its concievable to me that loki knows that bb is rocks son, and is an emperor but doesnt know specific details enough to know that he doesnt have the same qualtiies that rocks had and he admires

#

hes in this middle ground of enough information to want to seek out bb but not enough information to know bb will probably disappoiont him

trim lily
#

honestly i just see him as being the co captain of the new giant pirates with hajrudin

thick mango
#

that is the simple and most likely answer, i agree

#

but yknow thats not the fun line to think about

#

i think something about it not wrapping up in the same sort of formulaic pattern of almost every other arc would be refreshing

#

why did shanks hunt him down if hes alright? Is shanks just a poor judge of character? Is shanks just seeking justice for harald and believing the lie?

trim lily
#

this is one of the few times i think i would be satisfied with it

thick mango
#

one thing shanks is obsessed with is blackbeard. If loki were planning to seek out and bolster bb, that would turn shanks against him for sure

trim lily
#

this whole flashback doesn’t make me think oda would go the route of loki not growing and betraying them

thick mango
#

what have we really learned about loki from the flashback though

trim lily
#

he’s had a tragic childhood, his awful personality + actions was born from it and as a response to it

fallen meteor
#

uhh so loki is rocks

#

or something

thick mango
#

he had a rough childhood that can explain some of his behavior, he didnt actually kill his dad probably or had a good reason, and he idolized rocks and probably thought harald's refusal to help rocks has a horrible decision

#

maybe he would consider seekign out rocks son and offering to help as a way to make up for the percieved sin of his father of siding with the wg against rocks

trim lily
#

HOLY i’ve been watching for a while

#

i’ve been away from my desktop for the last few days so i guess the extension i used bugged out

frail cradle
#

shanks put loki down because he was making a scene in elbaph, not because he is evil

trim lily
#

loki was at sea when shanks captured him

#

i’m assuming since shanks knew the elbaf people and loki was (probably) causing some havoc at sea, he agreed to deal with him

#

Kaido really stole a fruit from a single mother of 20

#

Although katakuri with the azure dragon fruit would be busted

thick mango
#

to some extent i think thats the intended framing of the gv incident

#

like these are the two sides, let me tell you about their motivations for this battle, and really harald you chose the most dangerous game human hunters over the guy who just wanted to save his kid?

#

this isnt about taking over the world anymore, they had the second conversation where hes like look i just wanna save my kid

native cloud
#

Do you really think Loki knows BB cause I don’t

#

Loki didn’t even know Luffy

thick mango
#

i think its reasonable to expect he could have heard about one of the four emperors from mosa. But youre right its possible he didnt know

#

and i also think its possible harald finds out and maybe tells him

#

i still am holding out hope for harald to get involved at gv

#

luffys only been an emperor for a week, bb has been in power for at least a year right, maybe more

#

rocky port was already in the past at punk hazard, when luffy was just getting started in the new world

#

so bb has been firmly in control of hacninosu for quite a bit

native cloud
#

Yeah, maybe.. but remember Loki has been down there for some time now

iron oriole
thick mango
#

yeah but hes not completely isolated from information

native cloud
#

Yeah

thick mango
#

the implication is hes having regular conversations with mosa right

iron oriole
#

Ig the question is would Mosa talk to him about stuff like that?

#

Idk if thats the type of convos they have

#

It doesn't seem like Mosa informs Loki of the goings on in the world to me

native cloud
thick mango
#

being honest hes like man marked by flames for me where I dont even have a good guess

#

i have absolutely no idea

iron oriole
#

Jarul was my first guess but doesn't seem likely anymore

#

I do like the idea of it being a CD/a slave that somehow has a snail

#

Not Mjosgard though like some idiots say

native cloud
#

I just want think Mosa is a guy that helped Loki when he was at sea right before Shanks snapped him up

thick mango
#

A cd could maybe line up with something happening alongside shamrock being called away

#

I think we also need another good cd or two if oda wants to sell any kind of forgiveness

native cloud
#

Why

iron oriole
thick mango
# native cloud Why

to op community is like the mob that lynched doffy a lot of the time. if a few more exceptions dont pop up i dont think people will be happy with any outcome short of revenge killing them all to death

#

some people get really amped up kill em all whenever the topic comes up

#

and i can kinda understand that with how heinous they are

#

but thats not really the message/theme of the story, it cant happen

#

if 1 in 10 cds were a mjolsguard whos disgusted by it all but is too afraid to speak up cause people who speak up like mjolsguard get executed then it starts to become a more acceptable idea i think

iron oriole
thick mango
#

or maybe the message is just that even they, the most hyperbolic evil i can spin up, deserve forgiveness and the opportunity for redemption. Even if mholsguard is the only exception. But I think people wont like that

Of course by seeing through Koby’s perspective who is unaware of the full truth, it makes sense he would come to that conclusion but once he finds out him and SWORD will split up and fight for the right reason, not the first time he disobeyed orders as we seen in Marineford and we will see him doing this again in future and that would be the final nail in coffin for marine civil war to happen

What people seem to forget is that piracy in itself gets fueled by the Marines personally. Almost every Yonko along with several other powerful pirates we have come across is a result of the WG direct or indirect actions. So not only are the marines commiting crimes such as massacres similar to that of pirates on a regular basis were one can argue they are the same as pirates,they are also CREATING said pirates

While that is true technically the opposite is also true with Corazon end up being marine after Doffy killed his dad (even if he wasn’t a pirate at that time), Akainu’s past being implied that his suffering was caused by a pirate, heck Koby’s whole backstory was his being forced to work for a pirate until he got liberated by another pirate, so in a way marines and pirates are always tied with each other and cause endless conflict when the true cause of it are the ones on the top.

the culmination of bringing the dawn with all of the races in the world waiting for joyboys return only makes sense by defeating imu

Blackbeard has a very interesting storyline too but beating someone who was in power for 3 days will never have the same impact as someone who was terrorizing the world for 8 centuries

frozen aspen
#

One Piece is a story about surpassing the former generation. We know Luffy will surpass Roger and Shanks. Should Blackbeard not get to surpass Rocks aswell? Should he not achieve what Rocks could not? Imu is this everlasting creature. There is no next generations for him. No new blood to surpass his ambition. Why should Blackbeard fail before him?

stone tulip
# glass plume yeah

Also a little bit unrelated and kinda relevant to previous discussion but I recently began reading Skybound’s transformers and I just realized how the story (or rather the franchise as a whole including transformers one) has similar themes to one piece as a whole and makes me wonder about Imu’s true motivations in the story tho, won’t get to deep into that tho but just had some ideas on what Imu might truly wanted I guess.

frozen aspen
#

And I' not suggesting that bb will "surpass" Rocks in terms of raw power more so in achieving his goal. He could simply jump Imu after Luffy finished with him. Also the double spread for the race to the one piece had the emperors as main contenders not Imu.

stone tulip
ornate tartan
#

and in one piece not a single villian or antagonist has achieved their goal, not a single one except Imu who was already the status quo holder for 800 years, don’t know why it would change this time

sick dust
#

One also is a story about dreams and ambition.Every pirate character throughout the series has had a dream they want to achieve or had it crushed at one point or the other.Blackbeard is one such character and is willing to go through thick and thin to do so.Imu already achieve his goal of ruling the world and has no will to pass to.

You could make that argument in either direction, there's 2 characters with metatextual build up and and and 800 year contextual history, the Davy clan ruling the world is also clearly a long time coming, this flashback is proof enough of that.

We barely knew anything about the Davy clan other than Davy Jones himself and again there is more build up to Imu being the final villain outside of this flashback and how last few arcs suggested that Luffy will be the one who takes him down, heck Whitebeard himself told Blackbeard to his face that he isn’t the one Roger was waiting for and I am pretty sure this includes defeating Imu too, Imu being major threat to everyone makes far more sense cause how he literally caused harm to everyone even arguably including Luffy himself especially chapter 1060 alluded that Imu is directly in the way of Luffy’s dream.

Regardless all of this would feel wasted if Blackbeard ended up being final villain cause he is destined to fail and why we have to witness the same thing (villain trying to achieve their goal of ruling the world only to end up failing) when it makes thematically far more sense for Luffy to face off against someone who already succeeded at his goal long time ago (Imu)

Here’s my line of thinking:

Brag Men is circulated and received as a work of tall tales and fiction. However, Oda’s explanation of it in The SBS implied Theres truth to the tales published in Brag Men, and we have seen that Theres truth to it in the series

I think what happened is the government tried to kill Louis for writing that report. He survived, but received the fire scars in the process.

Under the pen name “Louis Arnot,” he’s tried to tell the world truths but the government successfully propagandized it into brag men, something to be taken as fiction by the world.

And so, as fire scar, Louis Arnot holds onto the ponegliff awaiting those who will guide the world to the truth. To the Dawn

Thematically it certainly makes more sense for blackbeard to be luffys final antagonist, I mean talk about wasted set up, blackbeard has been positioned as luffys foil and his presence has been building in the narrative since like 2000. I find it bizarre that despite how much emphasis odas putting on the clan right now people are still so insistent he's only destined to be defeated by imu or by luffy before the story's climax. I'd argue very little is lost by blackbeard usurping imu, all the ideas that make imu interesting as an antagonist is till present in blackbeard, including their historical connection to the void century and luffy and blackbeard have a personal conflict to boot

If we are talking about when it was set up I would argue Imu had been set up as final villain right from the start cause he represents world government as a whole, and for argument about him being Luffy’s foil actually supports the argument for him to be penultimate rather than final one cause again Blackbeard may have been a personal threat to Luffy and maybe some others but Imu is a threat to entire world due to how much harm he had caused for 800 years and it would be far more satisfying if the story ends with everyone ganging up on the guy who is responsible for everything that had gone downhill all the way from beginning.

I don't think that's a fair argument, while the government was established early on and is technically an extention of imu blackbeard was actually characterised by oda. The reason blackbeard has more personal and emotional weight as an antagonist is because oda depicts all the ways he conflicts with luffy directly, luffy and the audience share a personal distain for blackbeard. Imus much less personal and even still, everything you could argue about imus history and global threat can also be applied to blackbeard once he assumes his position

stone tulip
# lavish breach I don't think that's a fair argument, while the government was established early...

I do think it’s fair argument cause how world government had been following his orders for long time and how he caused so much pain for everyone especially the straw hats like Robin, Franky, Jinbe, and even Vivi are directly affected by him for example, and again even if Blackbeard managed to “usurp” Imu he would still lack the same impact Imu had caused for 800 years cause Blackbeard can’t do that in shorter amount of time, Blackbeard may have been Luffy’s personal threat as well as some others (like Koby and Shanks) but Imu is major threat to literally everyone including straw hats themselves.
