it's a guessing game but i think it would be most interesting if it was Ragnir
since then we'd have to ask why?
Also it would be interesting if the gorosei dealt with some things
also possible ⊠itâs so many OP freezing powers in One Piece that it close been a number of things that froze those giants lol
i think that Nusjuro dealt with Ryuma
couldâve been Nusjuro freezing
couldâve been Ragnir freezing
couldâve been someone in the past who had Kuzan DF
Saturn - presumably fought emeth
Nusjuro - galleila
Ju peter - lunarians
Warcury - not too sure yet tbh, maybe zou?
Ragnir, a weapon capable of killing immortals, something that makes Imu tremble!!
funny how Imu seemingly didnât even know about Ragnirs existence
maybe it was a weapon created later on after the void century
Ryuma did slay a dragon
i hope that the Galley-Ra used it
Will it be classified as an ancient weapon?
no
Ragnir must have been
nah not even close
but itâs the next strongest weapon after ancient weapons
it's strong, but it doesn't have anywhere near close the same power as an ancient weapon posseses
The truth is, it's a very dangerous weapon
def better than supreme grades but not ancient weapons which destroy entire islands
well, i think that Yoru comes first then Ragnir
That's what I thought
nah , i think ragnir is better
Yoru is the strongest sword but ragnir ainât a sword
i think Yoru will have a ton of power once we eventually see all of it
we don't even know for sure it's all Ragnir xd loki is an ancient giant with a legendary DF + coc
i think Yoru will just be based on Mihawk haki .. i donât see it having any other abilities like DF weapons
Ragnir got multiple. abilities
and can beat people on its own
Harald didnât even think he could beat Ragnir by itself .. Yoru ainât like that lol
interesting fact
i'm not ready to conclude anything
most think Harald stronger than Mihawk anyway and Harald didnât think he could beat Ragnir without Imu
this sounds like straight bullshit given Loki just gave it a smack and then it accepted him lol
i mean Oda put it on the story lol
Ragnir alone is top tier level lol only weapon thatâs like that outside of ancient weapons
yeah but it sounds horrendous if you ask me
How do you judge a weaponâs strength? Do you consider how much damage their user can do with it or do you consider the damage it can do by itself
it's probably one of the strangest things to be said in this flashback
What other weapon can kill an immortal? Excuse me
I think Ragnir is definitely in the top but Yoru seems to be because of how strong Mihawk is
yep , thatâs how all swords & swordsmanship is in one piece .. itâs mainly based on the user
Ragnir on its own is already an top tier
on top of the fact that Ragnir can also use multiple elements lol
Thatâs why Iâd like to know how the judgement for strongest weapon is decided
strangely enough it didn't use a single element when Loki wasn't wielding it
We still have to see Mihawk against an immortal 
like Oda really was like â ima create the most broken weapon in one piece and give it to Lokiâ lol
on top of his other DF
Because I personally would rather have a shogun than yoru even if the use Mihawk has is way stronger because Mihawk is really strong
Ragnir alone would be viewed as a top 5-8 DF to have then whatever Loki DF is .. thatâs a deadly ass combo Oda
Rocks & Harald boys the only ones wielding 2 broken DFs.. i love it Oda
i don't think it's as brutal as it's made out to be
since that would just be silly
if Ragnir really was stronger than Harald
Jarul & Gaban this chapter hype it up even more
Wait till you learn his eyes are also a power
â without Loki we were cooked â
Gaban saying âharald wouldâve brought the entire world to ruin if he were to leave Elbaf â
Jarul saying Harald wouldâve destroyed the entire world if he left Elbaf with that power
Gaban knows about the top tiers of the world and still said Harald wouldâve been unstoppable
if not for that treasure
well the fruit seems like a crux
Scooper is a humble boy
nah Scopper knows ball lol he knows nobody wouldâve been able to stop Harald
bro ainât have no faith in WB Kaido Big Mom lmao
that's because Harald was immortal
if it wasn't for his immortality i don't think Gaban would've been as worried
But he also said his strength and regeneration was slowed down by the time he fought Loki
Harald strongest Imu subordinate ever
at that time, yeah
still is to current day as well
we don't know that
we do lmao itâs the same gorosei and HKs
Yoru better be taking mfs souls
they ainât stronger than harald
no we don't know that, lol
lmao thinking any of those people have surpassed harald is insane
guys, one thing I found funny is that Loki spent so much time recounting his flashback,
and it turns out Zoro and Sanji were still there listening to everything!!!
they hadn't gone up yet!! 

They heard about shakky and decided to listen to the gooning
yeah Harald is easily Imu strongest subordinate ⊠mfs never thought the gorosei individually were stronger than people like Roger Rocks Garp Harald WB , then Harald got a insane Imu power boost on top of that .. itâs not even a deabte .. heâs the strongest Imu has had
hahaha, yeah!, I expected them to already be upstairs starting the fight!!
I just realized the reason the live action has all this "good pirate" "bad pirate" dialogue, is because of netflix rules on how to make series.
hi rick!!!
Very hamfisted
Good Morning !
One thing I found funny was Sanji standing on the elevator then casually being with scooper and chopper
Yeah, but apparently netflix has made it a rule that you need to make everything super clear because people struggle to pay attention
âUmmm Luffy, maybe we shouldnât be hitting these members of the government recognized law enforcement, even if they are breaking laws and terrorizing the citizenry? After all, there are systems in place for us to voice our dissatisfaction with the current state of things!â
âShakkytrue, Namiâ end S2
Looking forward to luffy telling wapol he has been a naughty boy
Luffy is gonna help chopper stage a protest at Wapolâs castle instead
Yes, I believe so,
remember that Rayleigh easily defeated Sommers, but he was immortal
"We all deserve healthcare and medication and you have been mean to chopper"
that also seemed illogical to me, because Gaban should have stayed below!!
Oh god the alabasta civil war is going to be super cringe
yep even Gaban talked about how all the other HKs were nothing like Harald

âthe abyssal zone can crack from earthquakes to reveal a deeper layerâ đ
The Mariana Trench is the deepest point on earth. So what actually is down there?

If I have used any clips that belongs to you but have neglected to credit you please contact me so I can credit you.
Guys, itâs never okay to split the soul of your country like this!!! There are small businesses in Alabasta that are suffering because of this unnecessary violence. Think of Sir Crocodileâs casino!!
hii saya!!!
Instead of beating Crocodile, they get Cobra to appoint him as the Rain Czar and now the state of Alabasta no longer has to worry about providing water to people, as Crocodule sells it at a monthly rate.
Iâm fine with him going up to watch, he loves watching, just how did Sanji get there
Yoooo! Whatâs up Syrup! 
it was
hahah
Pretend I always knew he was going to return to take his spot as the final Strawhat
Become inconsolably smug
She would be like "I bought my friends too!"
Yamato can come deliver Pepe to us and leave with Ulti
ZoSan ?
I mean combined with ancient giant blood, Imu power up, powerful Haki, and devil fruit.
Makes sense Gaban would say that.
Today I was waiting for a bus before work and I was alone on the street with headphones on
Suddenly I felt a lick on my fingers
Sorry I mistook you for someone else
Scared me like crazy
I look down its a chill street dog
So I pet him and start thinking how im going to adopt this guy and it will be awesome and when I look around he went to the next person that showed up and licked their fingers too
Serial finger licker
Dog I liked licked someone elseâs fingers. Gonna become a dogcel. Fuck this gay earth.
And earning food for every time he does his job
Marin never wash that hand again
Cherish it forever
It would be funny if there were cels for different animals in the internet
IS THAT A RAGNIR TRUE 
Youâre a YCel
I was like "omg I was chosen"
I went to look at I am the chosen one gifs but it would be too political for this server 
Its so funny when you search something safe and the gif browser is like "what if it was actually really not safe"
Marin youâre in your dogcel chud arc now
You gotta have really strong opinions on Orange Town as an arc
I have 3 dogs at home so im ok with that little dude spreading his love
Indogitable human spirit
Watch Linlin become a cloudcel
Maybe she wanted Loki in her family for his cloud logia

I took care of that cloud for decades, gave him my freaking soul only for him to leave me for a younger woman because she fed him a couple times. I gave everything to Zeus and thatâs how Iâm repaid. Iâm never dating a cloud again
is imu human ? the way she spoke about harald about how incredible and strong he was or calling him a " a true monster ", that kind of wording is distinctive of humans isn't it ?
it looks like they didn't live history either, only witnessed a part of it and read about the rest somewhere, like some kind of religion
Imu TREMBLED when thinking about cloud logia btw
Wtf is lokis devil fruit lmao do nidhogs have ice powers?
Iâm from the great north
I can confirm clouds can make ice
Loki is the cloud logia
Non truth nuke
I wouldn't hate that tbh but also why does Ragnir have electric powers
Some people think its the squirrel part
The ratatoskr travels the realms delivering messages in lore so it makes sense that the df would have attacks based on each
either cloud logia or storm paramecia
OR it has the mythical model rain god fruit
I mean what was the form he took than
Menacing cloud monster
Tbh it seems dragon related
2 GOATs... Goda strikes again...
yeah I needed to put this in a image to really um
really make it obvious
Tbh Loki is kinda a different version of usopp
Loki ate a fruit and Ragnir ate a fruit
I cant wait for them to meet each other
Ragnirs fruit makes him use elements
That's really random tho
Itâs all Loki mate
Hmm I'm not against it just not 10010perxent sure
Did you have a stroke at the end there?
It will either be the biggest friendship ever or they will hate eachother
@olive sigil lmao just a tiny bit
they are going to be besties, well maybe it starts out rough though since its Loki 
Thereâs no way Usopp doesnât think Loki is the coolest thing ever
Loki is the idealized giant
I think usopp will do something that will make Loki see usopp like how haj sees usopp maybe even tanking a hit for other giants idk but definitely thinks bromance will develop
Okay random idea I would love to see the Main giants recreated as mecha
I was thinking this too but oda is imprevisible
Is imprevisible a word
If it wasn't it is now lol
Goda
what's this
The 9 realms of the north all have an element that fits to them more or less, Loki used an attack named Niflheim which is an ice region
So basically Raignir might have 9 elements
Viz says it's nibelheim
...
Nibel me this batman
Viz is Nibelheim because Ragnir is a Squirrel & he's gonna nibble Imu's ankles
I thought Kierran was making a joke but is that really it
definitely a pun
I mean its a squirrel and they nibble so probably
Whats the attack name in japanese
Nibelheim
i dont know
its nibelheim, artur thinks its a FFVII related thingy but idk
vu to be exact
Thats v and b I thought
It's a variation of niflheim or something from one of wagner's operas or something. I dunno
definitely not because of FF7
Japanese have the f
not to armchair the translation process a bit but it almost feels like its a mistake stemming from what hanifu mentioned, as well as confusion with the popular "nibel" term which shows up in a lot of vaguely norse-related media like Wagner's Nibelungen
They can just say Nifuru
they say NIBURU
and from a quick wiki dive Nibel and Nifel apparently mean the same thing
Unless the real spelling is Nivelheim
ah
Niflheim
I thought it was just a pun on nibbling lol
but you know its just katakana
That would be cool if thats the case
Oda spelt it wrong cuz of a game
Niflheim (ăăŽă«ăă€ă )
Ni Bu Ru He I Mu
Heim translates to home. I don't know wth nifl or nibel is
it's "mist" apparently
thats the official spelling of niflheim like it or not, in katakana
Ooooh
America = A ME RI KA
Nebertari bibi
There exists the Katakana Fu tho
Thereâs dakuten to differentiate between bu and fu so not really
like MILK is MIRUKU
ăă«ăŻ (Mi Ru Ku)
ye but doesnt mean it applies to this word
just accept it
No
NIBURUHEIM is the way to go
NIBURUHEIMU
Explore my thoughts
Niburu my friend
NEBERTARI BIBI
this translation shit gets real serious
Be ready to die behind it
Bibi next sturahattu
poor hanifu, you scared em away
BIDEO
This does not explain the F
bideo geemu
YUTUUBO BIDEO
they write katakana on how it sounds
thats not how it works
just accept it
NIBURUHEIMU
ah so that's how he's gonna be relevant again
You are not helpful
Maybe Oda is just stupid and can't spell
Again?
Weeburu
Weeb????
Thatâs how they say Weevil
still thinking about the very early Mangapanda translation "Edward Weeble"
Weevil is just a fucking Whitebeard Pirates weeb this explains everything
NIBURUHEIMU
Mangapanda my beloved
my new favorite word
If you say this again you WILL be muted
Binktopia vs Mangapanda who will win
I don't think I'm familiar with the zootopia rip off
Youâre too young I perhaps
I'm 36
Royal shichibukai?
thigh is a prehistoric creature wdym too young
Did you not read Binktopia
If I did I never noticed the name
Youre really just sending random japanese to english pics that dont apply to the situation and scream NIBURUHEIMU 
oh right this is the same chapter where the Mangastream scan had Bartolomeo namedrop Martha Stewart
i answered you tho
katakana works on how they sound to japanese
not how they actually spelled
phonetic
yea, if anything the examples show the F sound being replaced with H instead, which I have indeed seen before
What he's saying is that oda never wrote an f
He wrote niburu not nifuru
Squirrel reference
its a nibble pun I am telling you

The Katakana for Fu can be turned to Bu but only with that " symbol
So Oda did the " but it wasnt necessary
THAT symbol
oppenheim
Also. Oda would write niphlheim. You know this
Probably indeed because of the FF game
Lmao just remembered some of the early spoilers for the chapter where Kawamatsu first shows up had the spoiler "He introduces a unique new weapon type called a "æăźćŁ", or "Love Sword", but in the proper chapter it's just "ah yes my favorite sword" lmao
So glue
Isn't oda just a ffhead
On a certain island, that man will find....it...
So he used the ff word
Niphlheim in elbaph
its definitely not because of FF
Like I also think nibelheim before the right spelling
Or midgar instead of midgard
ngl, never knew Nibelheim was a FF thing before this chapter
Are we sure tho
i mean, i am
We know oda is a ff player
See this is the wrong Bu katakana here, thats Vu which also can be confused with Bu, but in Niflheim its Fu, and for Bu you use Fu and " no Vu involved here
Or it really is written like that and Oda (or the game) confused a lot here
What is the genuine Nibelheim spelling in the raws
Which katakana are there
Buvufuhu
New one piece laugh
Never played but I will get mad over it
You dont know how much Final Fantasy or other games like Dragon Quest influenced Oda
Its very possible
There's also been somewhat of a trend in Elbaph names where two vaguely Norse names have been smushed together
Like Ragnir or Hilmungardr (Road's pet snek)
i doubt it personally
My oc Thoki son of Lodin and his brother Lhor
also think it's really funny that on the current list of opponents Luffy has gone Gear Fifth for, it's Kaido, Lucci, Kizaru, the Five Elders, Gaban.......and that snake
early spoilers used to be so funny
now its just worstgen being an idiot, instead of there being real confusion about anything
I will never forget "Howell D Rocks" 
lmao yeah, the recent "Loki has a squirrel fruit" reminded me of that lmao
technically not wrong... he owns Ragnir
I still think about himb....
ooh that was funny yeah, even though it was just people assuming that the squirrel gifs has to be about HIS fruit
Was that for 957??
yeah
Gonna watch the Loki morj video
lmao first line "it's time for readers to stop underestimating Loki" he's SPITTING
Tbf, that was fans jumping the gun
I remember reading the 957 spoilers but idr Howell D. Rocks
957 was insane, and got hyped up by leakers VERY Early like it was the greatest chapter of all time
Yeah same
arsal just making this shit up
you guys werent there for the early early stuff then smh
loved the fanart people made
just look it up
who genuinely underestimates Loki though?
That wasnt fanart, that was ai
Funnily enough, I think mostly people that want him to join the crew because the "weaker" he is, the less farfetched it would be for him to join ig?
If he's like, as strong as luffy or even stronger, he's obviously gonna be too strong to join (he's not joining anyway so just appreciate him for what he is)
at one point we were hearing about Imu, VP and Greenbull all appearing at the same time lmao
In that context, Morj meant in reference to the legenda
What if Zoro and Sanji just become Roger level what then
This arc
i wouldn't say thats underestimation, they know how strong Loki is just they lie to themself (cope) to make him weaker because NoBODy CaN jOIn StRONgER tHaN zOrO
Then powercliffing is real
But that last part is true atp in the story
Loki is just below Luffy level, Sanji and Zoro will pass that eventually so it doesnt matter
Given how much Oda is emphasizing the dynamic of the PK having 2 men that stand above the rest
shoulder to shoulder
You're coping if you think the wings thing isn't being hard established now
omg yeah
Loki is kind of well above Luffy , he can defeat immortal when Luffy canât , and if Luffy will who knows if itâs the same method or by âflipping â pieces
This isnât debatable
I believe one of the very very early 1044 spoilers for what Gear 5 was was just "it's revealed to be using Gear 4 without Haki"
Luffy will be able to beat an immortal soon, he was just being a bit stupid
For that and many reasons , there will be some plot reason why Loki wonât join Luffy , heâs better off with bb anyway
yea, which is kind of true, that muscle muscle form he had looked like G4
Thatâs not an excuse , he legitimately couldnât scratch warcury
Heâs not stupid when it comes to battle
Donât be ridiculous
Loki wont be scratching Warcury either
He was stupid in egghead
he'd straight up kill him
no lol
Nah this is an excuse you can just say something else but we all know the only places luffy is actually smart is in battle
Loki is clearly strong enough to fight the strongest people in the world. He's at that level of power. I can see Loki being able to fight evenly with someone like Kaido. You tell me if you can feasibly see Zoro or Sanji being able to fight Kaido 1v1 on even ground by the end of Elbaf đ€·ââïž coz I don't. If that's the case then what's the point of their BBP fights lol
the recency bias is potent
Yes letâs dismiss luffys established character to fit our points better arsal
Well, idk what excuse i can give for luffy just not using no contact punches to punch warcury so he doesnât hurt his hand
He wasnât strong enough
Thatâs a good start
I mean tbf I dont mind the other explanation, that the Gorosei's immortality level is just levels above the HKs and thats why Haoshoku didnt work on them
Who wasnât strong enough?
Thats not how no contact punches work
I feel like people not being open minded is an issue, like we've known the importance wings of the PK, and Loki joining wouldn't necessarily undermine all of their efforts or their narrative importance.
Loki joining would make him a new addition nothing more and nothing less, I don't think any of the Straw Hats are gonna regard him higher than Sanji & Zoro to be frank, they'll probably look at him as extra muscle rather than a new replacement.
Wondering now if it's only the Depths Covenant ppl who are able to be injured by Supreme King Haki, and since all the Elders seemingly have the deeper Abyssal Covenant, that's why Luffy wasn't able to hurt them in Egghead?
but until thats established, it looks more like Luffy just forgot to use CoC for whatever reason
Something luffy is able to do
That isnât how no contact punches work
Reason 1 Loki won't join: Too strong
Reason 2 Loki won't join: It's honestly too late in the story (fight me)
Reason 3 Loki won't join:
This is dumb cop out
All of them are Admiral to Yonko lvl, theyre ranked by strength and Kuzan is actually the weakest
BB is like Ultra God Level
oh didnt read this lmao
I can actually see this happening EOS
It would be hilarious đ
He didn't use infusion attacks nor did he use ACOC attacks
So then this isnât about being strong enough because thats not how no contact punches work.
It would have to mean thereâs something unique about warcury
Yea I don't think that matters. People said the same about Yamato. It's ultimately a dynamic that Oda values and even if you don't think it would undermine it necessarily, it absolutely would in at least some respects. I just don't think there's really any point to adding him atp in the story when he can essentially just serve as a major ally for the remainder. If all that is left is basically another island then Laugh Tale then final war, what's the point of actually making him an "official" crewmember.
I think it's more fitting for Loki and Hajrudin to make amends and become the new dual leaders of the giant warrior pirates since they've historically always been led by a pair
Luffy was just playing around on Egghead tbh and it's Odas fault for people being confused
^
I think it's ultimatley leading to this
I dont think no contact changes anything with Warcury, I feel like his gimmick is gonna be Urouge-like
the Haj and Loki dynamic of coming together to forge a truly better future for Elbaf is also being heavily pushed
Hajrudin needs an upscale to keep up with his brother but give him time
Im saying no contact stops luffy from hurting himself
I more see Hajrudin taking the throne and Loki goes to meet Mosa, and gets involved with galleila
Hajrudin is gonna get a heaven realm training arc and become yonko level
Doc Q is the strongest then
I'm good with that
I think Hajrudin is gonna be way stronger than the last time we saw him
Probably
Heâll be a hypetool
no he won't
I see either taking the throne more as an EoS thing, but yeah it's possible they split up
Hajrudin is getting Harald's sword after Jarul dies
But I don't think even oda could bullshit his way into making him that much stronger than the last time we saw him lol. You'd have to suspend an insame amount of disbelief
But I also don't really give a shit anymore
hes getting tossed away by dorry and brogy
he definitely could, lol
Lokis definitely going to meet up with Mosa (Shirahoshi) and find Galeila on the way
Whats Jaruls full name again
I mean everyone has gotten that much stronger since Dressrosa, its plausible
no he isn't
Beardfall?
nuh uh
Going from Machvise to Imu would be quite a jump
well, we've had other characters do jumps as well
Brogy went from losing to Mr 3 to fighting the elder stars
I see i see
That's disingenuous
?????
Mentally nerfed brogy
Brogy never really lost to Mr.3
people forget that Mr 3 admitted that without cheating, they'd get destroyed
Dorry and Brogy were never that weak. They were legendary captains even back then. It's just for the sake of the arc and being a product of early one piece. Dorry and Brogy have always been some of the strongest people in the world
He said he tried everything , Iâd assume that meant all of that even if not explicitly shown
I was going to say Hjarudin takes the sword of the stone(Jarul) and is crowned King but mountain beard doesnt work as well
complimengenuous
This is just false
Brogy was never a Mr.3 victim
The Mr 3 stuff is a meme
Brogy and Dorry just had weird moments in the arc, if you put current dorry and brogy in the arc, they clean house, especially given they should have haki
Brogy and Dorry were worn out from their constant battling as well
i mean galdino did kill them
Brorry and Dogy when
Gal Dino
I didn't mean that as Brogy being weak or anything, oops
I just meant that it's impossible to scale giants based on feats in older arcs cuz Odas always presented em with this notion of being the top tier of the world in the actual narrative.
Makes you think
They kinda keep upscaling with the snowballing of the series itself. I expect Hajrudin to hold his own
its not too complex with Hajrudin, he was humiliated in Dressrosa so he decided to train to get stronger ever since and now he is as strong as Oda needs him to be
Hes reached the level of a yonko commander
Hajrudin deserves a devil fruit of his own, he searched for one in Dressrosa
it's time for Oda to give him one
Give him the sword in Jaruls head
Hjarudin EATS ragnir
he wields a giant axe, he doesn't need a sword
I think Hajrudin true boost is coming Post-Elbaf
Oda should give Hajrudin the real Gungnir
like it doesnt have to be deeper than that, characters get stronger all the time in the series and in spans of time that do seem way too brief but thats how it is
oh didnt mean to reply
Like him getting coc might not be this arc but in the future, yes
but yeah YC-ish sounds reasonable, I think he is gonna be up there for sure
still wondering when this plotline is gonna be brought up again
Him and Loki will do a tag team attack
why wouldn't it be this arc, lol
the very next panel is the very first time we see Imu too
if there's any time for Hajrudin to bloom, it's this arc
will jarul's head sword or chekhov's giant sowrd be meitou grade
I think the difference between Dorry and Brogy and then Hajrudin is that the hierarchy of their respective introductory arcs was pretty clear to the reader imo. Again, I'm not too fussed about it, I hope Hajrudin gets some good stuff this arc and can stand side by side with his brother in battle. But during Little Garden, I still walked away from the arc knowing that Dorry and Brogy under normal circumstances were still easily the strongest people in that arc. Whereas during Dressrosa, it's clear Hajrudin is more on par with the "officer" villain group characters. But yea, I'm fully expecting some good Hajrudin stuff soon
can biblo shrink chekhov's giant sword
He is going to get a post Dressrosa boost, and then he is going to get a powerup this arc as well (CoC)
who
Hajrudin
finally
Loki and Hajrudin will parallel Dorry and Brogy, releasing a Ikoku sovereignty attack
I have been investing for a while smh
Investing in Hajrudin stocks during Elbaf is like investing in Momo stocks during Wano. It'll pay dividends
Yes
it's so clear cut given Hajrudins dream is pushing his narrative onto a specific path
got to, people keep shitting on him, it needs to stop
Change is bound to happen, having a stoic and predictable story isn't what Oda does. He's not going to prevent Loki from joining because it's somehow too late for him to. Any I'm pretty sure we've gotten a big reason why Loki joining matters. We're on the final saga of One Piece, and yet Luffy is pretty oblivious of the true nature of the WG. Loki adding develops Luffys relationship with Shanks and potentially deepens his angst against the World Government and allows the story to essentially move forward with the plot line of Luffy vs WG. So far Luffy has been indirectly battling the WG but now with Loki he could fight them directly and help his Nakama gain closure or avenge his father. Plus people are acting like Zoro and Sanji have hit their caps and won't somehow get stronger, like Zoros ceiling is Mihawk a man who's strength is on par with Shanks (guy who defeated Loki). The power balance won't always be the same, and even if Loki joins there's still a possibility that Zoro and Sanji can still be the 2 strongest members on the crew. And of they're not well that doesn't really matter, as long as their narratively important, their rankings on strength won't matter that much. If Yamato and Loki join, I don't think anyone is gonna say they're more important than Zoro and Sanji. But that's just my opinion
Maybe Cross Guild or Magellan will fight the assassin sent from the holy land of Mariejois
he said youre gonna have to wait around 20 chapters for the Heaven Realm
Luffy says alot of shit don't always trust his words
How could mister 3 defeat him though...
Mr 3 is never moving like that 
Heaven Realm of Spirit and Time is where time flows differently, 3D is 2Y, thats where we will get the big Hajrudin training arc too
The Wax fruit is actually a God Fruit
Wax God Wika
Nikas flames look identical to Mr 3s wax
Hajrudinâs already been training
Coincidence?
Mr 3 is the same guy who got knocked unconscious by a pretimeskip luffy conquerors
Nah that's crazy
They get to heaven and they find Urouge aged 70 now
i have no expectations for Urogue, lol
COOK
other than being connected to Enel in someway
oh for sure, but it will be post CoC awakening training
Lol
Urouge isnât coming this arc.
Kidd will be revealed alive Post-Elbaf
The urouge Enel kid law arc soon
Smoker too
m8, this is like the ideal place for Urouge to show up lulz
he's up chilling in the Astral World wondering wtf is going on below him
The Arsal World
I don't think it's a matter of importance or perceived importance. I think strength inherently is attached to the dynamic now too. It's not like if Loki joined it would threaten Zoro and Sanji's placement on the crew in terms of relationship to luffy or whatever. But I think a massive part of this dynamic being established is simply that those 2 are his main men that can stand shoulder to shoulder with their captain. If anything, strength is the most important part of this dynamic because that's mostly what those 2 can bring to the table that clearly stands out from the others. But yea we'll see. Above all else, I think the biggest reason we won't have any completely new SHs (I think Vivi rejoins in some capacity) is simply because there's not much story left to really incorporate them into the crew in a meaningful way. We've already been seeing Jinbe get somewhat sidelined during the arcs because the story is so busy and plot driven currently that it's hard for Oda to shed spotlight on each individual crewmember.
We havenât seen that ideal place yet
Agreed but also the presentation of Hajrudin this arc is "woah our subordinate is a way more important dude than we thought at the time" and I think that his presentation is gonna be more in line with other kings and princes in the series now that hes filling a greater narrative purpose

For sure
Well I guess it's a matter of different opinions at the end of the day. I think Oda is trying to make the story fun and interesting instead of focusing to just wrap things up with the current set of characters.
Crocodile & Mihawk being Buggyâs wings is so peak
Thatâs why Oda is saving their backstories for later
When's moria
Buggy saved their lives
I think during post Elbaph arc. We will see Moria & Perona with Cross Guild
And they will be at Wano
Getting Pluton. The ancient weapon that Crocodile has wanted since Alabasta
If this arc gotta be super long to fit in Hajrudin and Usopp moments, then im all for it. I am putting them as the most underrated characters this arc
I am not falling for that Oda comment on Jump Festa. The Straw Hats are not going to reach Laugh Tale or Lodestar this year.
i believe an early concept art sketch of the Cross Guild poster had Perona on it too
Yes
Facts
Theres going to be like 2 more arcs before we reach Lodestar
Alvida, Perona, & maybe the real Miss Buckingham Stussy
A lot of Hajrudin/Luffy parallels are slipping under the radar
First is Hachinosu and 2nd is Fishman Island
Well it could means this series still goin on for another 3-4 years đ
Yea Hajrudin wants to be king of the giants. Luffy wants to be king of the pirates
One piece is ending on 2034
One piece is ending when I say itâs ending
We still got alot of shit to cover
10 more years?!
8* but yah
That's way too long
One Piece is perpetually ending in 5 years
This is more accurate icl
no 
I think we do start going to the final island after Elbaph. Thereâs no other island left
Unless we pivot to Mariejois
If you start playing, i will reduce the nn change by 1 day 
we have to go to lodestar
Wtf discord
you want me to play mid in exchange for just one day?? mega pass brah
Heyy what's up
I just needed a break lol, the flashback really drained me
Next arcs probably lodestar which is gonna be where all the pieces for the actual finale start falling into place
But I'm calling spring next year, odas not getting through the arc climax and a second flashback with gunko in 30 chapters
But we're finally out of it now
Elbaf is gonna last a year (ends on late 2026), then we're going to get 2 new arcs like fmi which will probably last a year each as well (ends 2028), and then we're gonna get lodestar arc which will last a year as well (ends 2029), and then the final war will last 4 years (it'll include lots of flashbacks like dragon, Mihawk, and shanks), and then we will get the prologue which could last half a year or more.
Moon arc as well
W
You left out the moon arc
Hi cam
Oda keeps showing Hajrudin with meat on the bone too. And luffys got an axe like he does
Moon arc is on the final war
The most important
Hi Ari!!!
Yesss
I canât wait for the day the final chapter hits and we can all beat the Moon Arc next joke into the ground for the next 20 years of our lives
Hajrudin will become king of Elbaph because I feel like he is more ideology aligned with Harald about uniting the giants than Loki is
Thy both will be king
Plus, I donât think Loki will accept that responsibility of being king of the giants. He can be the captain of the galley la giants
I think he'll be the one to break the social and racial boundaries that discriminate on foreign or non pure giants.

Lodestar probably has cool shit on it
Loki wouldn't be fit enough to do this since he's a racist tsundere
wait til we find out the previous user of ragnir iced the galley la giants
Prolly sum blue poneglyph
Loki doesn't think he fits as a king either
I love Chainsawman Power
Why they uh attack em
lodestar copers đ we all know we're going to vira
Or like a parrot that talks or something. That would be tight.
So heâs a perfect waifu candidate. Got it
not one that follows Haralds way at least
its always been vira
Maybe he says a few words. That would be sick as fuck.
just remember me when the reveal comes
Could you jack my memory I forgot vira
Vira is the old base island for the Revs
get a grip pal. vira is more canon than the manga

The one that Burgess washed up on and the BB pirates sacked iirc
that is NOT my goat sabo
These vira believers smh
Completely irrelevant ass island
Thats batilgo
I heard it before but I just forgot about it đ
Technically kamabaka
Good point
Welp
Well NOW itâs Kambakka yeah
Wait I forgot he said old base mb
Next arc gonna be new đïž
Baltigo is where Jesus ended up post DR & had BB come raid
Buggy gonna arrived first
Yeah
Revs ran away
Garling, send him to the slave stretcher
Youâre getting slave stretched, buddy
Watch lodestar is god valley done right
Guys is anyone else part of the tsuru agenda
is this different to a normal stretcher?
Aka slave hunting successfully done đ
Not me
@rotund trout
I told you itâs real
Then theyre smart
I told you these people were serious
Join it
Zunisha kuina circle
What if the wash fruit can clean people from domni reversi
you're making us blackbeard fans look bad with this ragebait man youre better than this i know you are
We lowkey know how to remove the demon spell
Beat the shit outta them
Yeah on this one the slaves stretch you. And the whole time theyâre like crying and shit. Mad annoying. And theyâre being overly apologetic.
Wait BB fans is vira believer ?!
Impossible
not worth it
damn didn't expect that
yeah blackbeard is my favorite character
but anyway tsuru is the goat
Mb gang, but let go vira 
she was going up against the whole donxq family herself
and had doffy stressing
which is better than any sengoku feat
Mhm. I agree. Especially since his mom Ida wasnât recognized by them & was labeled a foreigner.
Top 10 sengoku feats:
1).
And youâre like nah man itâs okay I get it youâre in a slave class you donât have a choice itâs okay and theyâre like no Iâm really sorry and youâve acknowledged it a few times now and at this point youâre pretty sure they arenât even sorry TO you, theyâre saying it for their own clarity of mind, which is like cool or whatever, but like cmon man Iâm the one getting stretched here not you pause
Seems like a background island than anything đ„
Standing next to garp
Vira deniers in 2026..
I might get speedreader but fuck it
What is vira? A secret town?
Or island i should say
Aint no way
Sorry but I don't see it being relevant at this day and age
myth island
Im sorry man i been causing too much chaos
The revs overthrew like 8 nations vira isn't special
Vira was mentioned by Oda in one of his statements that were meant to hype us up for Film Red and Post-Wano
I musta missed something
Ahhh ok ok
It was in a list of islands mentioned in the manga that we hadnât seen or gone to yet
But that was deadass like fresh out of Wano
Before we knew Egghead was next
Now weâre in Elbaph. Vira is not happening.
Chek sent me this
Is this place ever gonna be relevant
So a unknown pirate took over vira
Nah
Shiki
Whyâd you shoehorn kid in
Why not?
Why
đđ
Ima humor you
Because shiki needs a new gen pirate to continue his plan
How did ragnir get an emoji so fast
And kidd is more like shiki tbh
Crazy asf
Missing limb(s)
Oh itâs not from this server
Its time
I'm not as mature as you I laugh at people's opinions
Ehhhh
Who said I didnt laugh
I thought kid was Johnâs parallel
Timeline most likely doesnât match up
Depends when he died
I wanna see Luffy vs Kuzan vs Akainu on the sea. All of them being able to walk on the sea would be really cool even though they're df users
Bro said he wants the biggest arena possible
The Sea itself
I dream big
When are we getting franky queen flashbacks, i want to see their story
But a triple threat match for the World Heavyweight Championship would be peak
Don't need oda to make a queen redemption arc, I'd never leave Franky behind for a warlord
Colon, Tama, & Bonney honestly would be cool apprentices for Luffy the same way Buggy & Shanks was for Roger
Luffy shanks and bb against each other would be the best fight ever
God Usopp already has his apprentices, Carrot, Pepper, & Onion
THAT would be fucking insanity
Exactly
this is uma musume sabo
Theyâre all gonna run the new world
Two Carrots
Mink Carrot meeting human Carrot
Legendary moment
@oda
Oda low-key just baits to boost sales
The way I see it. Mink Carrot has the Minks, Shirahoshi has the sea kings, Momo has the Wano samuraiâs, Yamato has his 2 scabbards so far, Loki will likely have the Galley-La Giants, Karoo will be interim King of Alabasta. I just think theyâll be allies of Luffy but they will be leading their own team, thatâs why they canât be sailing with Luffy on his ship as a Nakama cuz of them being also in position of leadership
It's time to accept that vivi will ultimately reclaim that seat
Karoo being the interim king of alabasta 
one piece is strawhatslop
As horrible as it is
Notice how those are all children
So true
Karoo has experience in leading a team đ
The royal Sonic Duck Squad of Alabasta đ„
Can't wait for loki to be the third victim of being a potential straw hat
how's loki gonna fit on the ship
There is no way that Loki won't be joining
he will join the grand fleet
True
def not the crew
Ask Oda
He's either joining the crew or not
nuhu
There is no compromise
Loki will not join anybodyâs crew. He will be his own person
This is what carrot and yama fans were saying before wano ending
but we will see
Wdym grand fleet like Loki doesn't feel indebted to Luffy at all to join the grand fleet
Sanjuan doesn't fit on the ship either but you don't see BB abandoning him
28 year old kid yamato
Loki will be friends with Luffy & the rest. But Hajrudin will be king of Elbaph & Loki will be captain of the Galley La
But yeah, Lokis gonna get potential straw hat'd
Luffy never asked them to join the crew though
but isn't sanjuan bigger? sanjuan is big enough to walk on the ocean i dont think loki can do that
At least for yamato
He didnt
Nope
San Juan is huge
Fujitora will be next straw hat
Honestly, I don't know the scales
My favorite one is the one with the glasses second from the left
Wdym no
He didn't ask her to join he just gave her an open invitation since she asked to join first
Sanjuan is like 180
Yamato is the one who wanted to join, luffy never formally invited her
He was like I'm cool with you joining but not I want you to join me
Thats still an invitation?
roughly x3 the size of Loki
Like why do the semantics matter
Yamato will have his 9 scabbards as well I believe
I didnt even notice Yamato
There's a difference between an invitation and pleading
đ
But most of the people with the craziest power are children why is that
oda made loki the size of a small hotel and people still call crewbait somehow I don't get it
No what we mean is something like this ch 1152
Theyâre the next gen I suppose Oda is trying to say
Again, that's just semantics. Point is that Oda cancelled it last second
much taller than a small hotel
You can't dismiss anything as semantics
almost 2 entire football fields holy
I mean yeah but fact remains that Luffy would take in yamato if she were to rejoin
Sugar is the weirdest case
It's all because of that dam oden's journal 
Thats irrelevant to the other thing tho lmfao
Luffy is nobody to Loki tbh
case of Jack Jack from invincibles
only way to give someone an overpowered ability and not break the series is to make them inexperienced/a child
I mean uh sure?
Heâs not an important figure in Lokis head
What if Imu is a child
Or someone like sugar
This is brazy
Yea
loki is aprox the same hight as oars right? 67 m?
how tall is oars?
Creepy ah imu
He will be, just give luffy time
She said 180m
Any given sanjuan size is not to be trusted
Sugar is 21 or something but I think her eating the hobby fruit as a child just permanently kept her in that same age when she ate it. But tbh idk why Oda decided to still go with that decision
Garp manchilded this freak
That's garp
So yeah ?
đ
Taking damage from garp is a bad thing i guess
No Haki btw
I think because it may mirror Imu in some way
Most if not all of the major antagonists have been Imu-lite in some way or another
sent my guy to next episode
It's impressive is all I'm saying.
DAMN. HE WENT ZOOMIN đ
Not needed there
Garp literally punched the largest character ever with one non haki punch
BBP btw
They're so fucked.
does haki amplify power?
The manga didnt even bother showing this they just hard cut back to Sanjuan laid out
Ahhh. Thats actually a pretty good observation.
Ofc
This shit would happen to zoro
Yes it does.
So no this isn't really wow crazy
What else would it amplify? Vibes?
Thats Garp tho
Its only garp the guy who was rivals with roger
Zoro tanked a yonko combo attack, I think he's surviving this
Who we saw made these people run for the hills
Zoro would be able to anticipate this and off some resistance compared to San Juan lmao
Tanked
Holy
Even if hes thrown off.
He didnât tank it
Lmfao
In the big 2026
He didn't tank it lmao
Anyone other than Garp is getting slimed out
He almost died sir
Literally almost broke everything and he was blocking it for a couple of secs.
Then he also gets blitzef by kaido
It takes a real man to get back from the dead after dying
Tank bros...
Different definitions of tank. But personally I would say tanking is taking an attack with little to no damage
This isn't even related to that scene
Let it go
Zoro gets erased if law dint save him
Am I being gaslight
Dint tank a thing
will oda ever explain the grim reaper when zoro almost died?
He deflected for 0.2 seconds giving them enough time to move out the way and for law to save him , if he was tanking law wouldnât need to save him
Its a gag.
Let it go
Zoro didnt tank it sir
In an arguement of Delusion always bet on the zoro fan
zoro tanks mother flame
Yeah I get u, itâs just your previous sentence is triggering 
Nah im a Zoro fan dont do that
Then are you really a zoro fan
Not every Zoro fan
But its always a Zoro fan
Itâs not even a gag , itâs just part of Zoroâs overall character arc
We can get back to it any point in time
Guys is it really that bad to say he tanked it đ you're making me feel stupid
Zoro may actually die lol
Caesar Clown technically has a kill count too
Its ok, people use the term tank liberally all the time
The whole meme was that Zoro was so exhausted after everything so far, he was close to death, so Oda exaggerated it to the point where the reaper was visiting him
That does not constitute a "tank"
He almost died and would have if Law didn't save him
Rip the homegirl Monet đ
There's nothing insane behind it other than the visual gag.
sorry oda isn't that poetic of a writer
???
To preserve my dignity I'm gonna say he didn't tank it I don't wanna be called delusional đ
Yeah I could see that , like a visualization of him pushing past deaths door , but I could see it using callbacks later on maybe even final arc stuff
What you suggested was even worse
oda got it wrong, I know what was supposed to have happened
If you said blocked nobody would have said anything
It was meant to drive home the fact that Zoro was near death.
Because it will have finally arrived 
But you brought it up like that would help him eat the same punch garp gave san juan
Zoro would get sent to orbit too
Me when Gaban was revealed
âOda is simply not competent enough" is my favourite argument from now on
Mfw winds of winter
Oda can't write a story so Ill insert my HC in instead and hope Oda copies me
Honestly I feel like he would be able to block it to a certain extent, Garp overpowers him but the margin is smaller than it is between San Juan and Garp.
Shiki is in the heaven realm
Gaban the GOAT father figure
zoro would survive the punch solely because he's one of the main characters, from zoro's present day "feats" zoro should get decimated from that punch tho
Pls
I feel he just gets slammed
I guess it depends on your definition of "tanking"
The general consensus is taking the full brunt of the attack and showing either little to no pain or consequences.
Zoro momentarily blocking Hakai is definitely a feat. But it isnt an orthodox "tank"
I dont see zoro near that level yet
I hope we get a Rayleigh & Gaban reunion
I know anime only fans think zoro is there
If zoro blocked with his swords even a little he wouldnât get decimated , if he took it plainly with his body he would yes
Oda foreshadowed winds never releasing just like dragon never making a move. Truly kino
But toei piece will not suffice
!cook
I see
Zoro would deal with the punch better than Sanjuan

He still hasn't mastered ryou ye 
i mean when most people say "tank" we think of taking a direct hit
Now that's insane imo, Zoro has insane durability
Meanwhile Kaido couldnt
sanjuan wolf jumped into the ocean himself to hype up garp
He's not but he's not getting one shot by an admiral
I dont think that needs stating
Tbh tho , zoro has great personal body durability , just not against fucking hakkai
Zoro is not getting one shot by an admiral what
