also-manga

[steel stirrup]

Because its quirky

[muted hedge]

the practicality has to be atrocious

[ornate tartan]

another chapter w rocks gone

[steel stirrup]

Bro fights with his df anyway so it doesnt matter too much

And anything he needs to "hold" can just be held by his fruit also

[urban lodge]

Pre-ts I agree

[hallow herald]

good question, i been predicting Shanks killing his whole crew n faking his own death at some point, i been between Yasopp dying before the reunion as like a karmic punishment for abandoning Usopp and his mom, and a scenario where Usopp meets him and finally stops idolizing him, confronts him for the abandonment n shit

[muted hedge]

eh, that's true

[obtuse perch]

so nobody knows that he never washes his hands, the filthy heathen

[steel stirrup]

Let it go

[fossil nimbus]

Yep, ennies lobby/water 7 usopp had very good writing

[muted hedge]

i think one could tell, lol

he probably stinks swamp

[hot cairn]

I just noticed it was Summers who destroyed the ship lmao this dude is hilarious

[steel stirrup]

You can't live a good life with all this hate in your heart, Krome

Let it go

[shut ginkgo]

Skypia usopp is sooooo goated also

[urban lodge]

I talk shit about Usopp nowadays because I like him, or used to anyway lol, he used to be my favorite straw hat once and I want him to be better

[hot cairn]

what did you think of the chapter krome

[brittle basin]

https://tenor.com/view/let-the-hate-flow-through-you-your-hate-has-made-you-powerful-emperor-palpatine-star-wars-gif-15799521

[prisma yacht]

I kinda foresaw this msg when I heard gunko's real name...ain't that funny

[muted hedge]

hitting a home run on his own ally is quite funny

[shut ginkgo]

Skypia a Top 3 arc in terms of enjoyability don’t know why it gets hated so hard

[scenic dirge]

Jinbe ain’t even helping Nami try to get Robin out of the thorns. He’s so fucking based for that

[steel stirrup]

Oh ye of little faith

[muted hedge]

he probably realizes that it's futile, lol

[ornate tartan]

i liked it, it was a solid 8-8.5 out of 10, brook was my favorite character this chapter and the twist of him actually not being a fan of Gunko shocked me

[spice cairn]

Jinbei is thinking so hard he has no time for allat

[muted hedge]

not even Gaban could do anything about the thorns

[steel stirrup]

BRO IS STILL THINKIN

[prisma yacht]

Pre ts is more focused on his split personality
Post is focused on him facing it

[scenic dirge]

Or he just understands ain’t nobody give a fuck about Robin /rb

[steel stirrup]

You've gone too far

[muted hedge]

now you've woken up the Robin fanbase

[spice cairn]

The guy paired with Robin doesn't care about her is actually fucking epic subtle nod Oda is making

[scenic dirge]

He does it again

How does he do it

[urban lodge]

I think he was forced to face his fears just as much pre-ts, like in arlong park and alabasta and even skypiea

[fossil nimbus]

same. If only we could get water 7/ennies lobby level of usopp back again

[spice cairn]

Oda just knows how to write pairings

[ornate tartan]

now it makes me see the panel before imu took over differently, the one she was crying out for her father

i think she did this against her will and not purposely, and brook just doesn’t know this yet

[dark nymph]

Usopp

[muted hedge]

yeah looks like it

[rose rune]

fucked it up, so had to reupload

[steel stirrup]

Look at you

[hot cairn]

I wasn't expecting him hating her, want to see the official, to see what exactly did he say

[steel stirrup]

Probably a Loki situation

[prisma yacht]

Damn that's an interesting view to this where he dies before meeting usopp

[novel berry]

the most probable scenario is the king offering his daughter( gunko) to imu and he later gets betrayed and killed

[urban lodge]

Brook is what we thought Jarul would be 💔

Bro is senile and has no clue

[rose rune]

demented?

[urban lodge]

Yes

[muted hedge]

i still wonder who the child is

[steel stirrup]

Jaruls speech got me hyped

[dense haven]

yall liked the chapter?

[muted hedge]

since it's probably not Shuri, right?

[novel berry]

it literally is

[rose rune]

slapped

[urban lodge]

It's definitely her

[steel stirrup]

I think it is

[hot cairn]

yes I did, it's BROOK SZN

[ornate tartan]

it’s shuri as a child

[urban lodge]

Who else would it be

[dense haven]

https://klipy.com/gifs/slap-face-slap-1

[rose rune]

brook looks kinda like a rat here

[muted hedge]

i thought that the older woman who shouted father would be Shuri

[steel stirrup]

Same girl

[long basin]

shuri as a child, and later she killed her father. probably controlled by imu

[urban lodge]

They're both her

It's not at the same moment

[rose rune]

https://tenor.com/view/flying-ragdoll-police-fail-hurt-gif-16557095

[dense haven]

shuri is the real name

gunko is just a nickname

[muted hedge]

oh, that makes sense

[ornate tartan]

the editor comment at the end of the chapter was interesting

[rose rune]

shurili not

[ornate tartan]

said the story will take a unexpected turn or something😂

[dense haven]

I think someone once said gunko means child soldier

[steel stirrup]

Yea ive seen that

[muted hedge]

makes one wonder why Shuri was chosen by Imu

[steel stirrup]

Blue hair

That's it

[spice cairn]

I liked this chapter

[steel stirrup]

Thats all

[muted hedge]

i don't think it's that simple

[hallow herald]

it’d be foreshadowed by Saul’s prank, but so would Shanks’s fake death on its own

[muted hedge]

if it was, then there would be more blue haired people amongst Imu's circle

[steel stirrup]

Can channel Imu

And has blue hair

[hallow herald]

same, extremely useful, love the way he drew Nika

[dense haven]

imu is a blucel

[muted hedge]

i think it's more so to do with the kingdom whom Shuri was the princess over

[prisma idol]

I honestly just think the blue hair is a coincidence that people have latched onto too hard

Gunko wasn't garunteed to have blue hair if yall remember the vol cover colorings

[muted hedge]

maybe Imu wanted the kingdom who Shuri was princess over, similair to how they wanted Elbaph which Harald was king over

catch my drift?

[hallow herald]

there is a third option between it meaning nothing and being the only reason

[rose rune]

you live

[prisma idol]

I know

I never stop winning

[rose rune]

https://tenor.com/view/dab-fabulous-bird-dance-celebration-gif-6083532

[muted hedge]

also i don't know if the timeframe is valid here but when was kuraigana turned into ruins?

[novel berry]

Oda just drawing shit 😭🙏

[rose rune]

don't talk smack about thormann

[muted hedge]

oh wait kuraigana war was just 9 years ago, nvm

[spice cairn]

Imu loves the color blue

Hide your blue haired people

[unkempt sable]

[hallow herald]

i been proposing a scenario where her dad was an HK, she killed him to free him like Loki and Harald, and then was taken as his replacement. the plan she came to Elbaf with could have been a reenactment of what happened to her

[steel stirrup]

I'm telling you

Its probably that simple

[spice cairn]

I mean im sure theres heavy lore significance

[half echo]

who do you think oda has been secretly cooking the longest and whose payoff will break the fanbase

[spice cairn]

But I think Gunko was the next best thing as a vessel

[hallow herald]

Shanks easily

[long basin]

I think we have to discuss Brook's greatness a bit more

[tough igloo]

more than likely Dragon

he’s the last one we haven’t seen in action

[ornate tartan]

garling

[half echo]

graling the same fruad

[clever idol]

May oda continue to feed this discussion

[muted hedge]

that would be interesting, for sure

[muted hedge]

Dragon

[fossil nimbus]

Mihawk/Dragon

[half echo]

we havent seen dragon full power

[muted hedge]

exactly

[half echo]

he is mostly nonchalant

[muted hedge]

what

[half echo]

indifferent

[muted hedge]

well he is very deep in the cause which he has built for

[ornate tartan]

oda is also cooking figarland shamrock

[muted hedge]

Shanks and Shamrock are a given

[ornate tartan]

shamrock was conveniently removed from the elbaph situation

[shut ginkgo]

Shamrock and killingham are the only 2 hopes the wg has left

[ornate tartan]

i don’t see any avenue of success for the strawhats if he stayed

[half echo]

because of the God valley incident

[muted hedge]

not only that but also that talk regarding the introduction of Shamrock
Oda said that to fully understand the importance of that chapter, you need to know what the one piece is

[ornate tartan]

that was amazing comment

[muted hedge]

Blackbeard is another case of a big payoff

[ornate tartan]

i remember when that tweet came out i read that chapter 3 more times😂

[muted hedge]

i'm guessing it has something to do with the same prophecy which Shanks abides by to which he is the child of destiny

probably something to do with their special red hair too, maybe descendants from Joyboy or something

[ornate tartan]

when i first read it my initial thought was it was about the convo road had w nami zoro and luffy about loki and hajrudin

[muted hedge]

it would be very interesting given the Shanks and Blackbeard being tied by fate, if Oda means literally as in

Blackbeard being a descendant from Davy Jones while Shanks is a descendant from Joyboy

[warm fossil]

yo what is that

[muted hedge]

Sommers thorn snake

[keen quiver]

Its been around for months

Since pre god valley

[warm fossil]

i'm a speedreader

[long basin]

I can't remember the times prior to the fb

But I can sense, that this Usopp guy is about to lock in! (and lock on)

[warm fossil]

ok highkey is this the first plot relevant ship that actually gets destroyed

if this technique was discovered in wci luffy would still be a prisoner lol

[novel berry]

https://tenor.com/view/one-piece-gif-24497181

[ornate tartan]

when imu took away saturn immortality he rapidly aged into whatever his real age was, 400+ years and then his body disintegrated right?

[long basin]

it somewhat reminds me of Franky destroying the Vegapunk lab with an oopsie-daisy

[ornate tartan]

so if imu takes sommers immortality the same thing won’t happen

because he’s not that old probably in his 70s

but he would be killed by normal attacks after that

[muted hedge]

Sommers has aged from God Valley, which is also interesting

[warm fossil]

i mean i imagine imu is extremely capable of just killing sommers

[long basin]

nah he will stay immortal until sanji beats him, trust

[grim ermine]

New chapter pretty good

[ornate tartan]

sanji didn’t even show up in the chapter, he only had 1 text box😂

saying nami name

[grim ermine]

Didn't kill brook tho

[warm fossil]

brook is top tier

[long basin]

the missing text box

[warm fossil]

but also my point was imu being able to just kill anyone he controls

[grim ermine]

You should've said "he's already dead yohoho"

[ornate tartan]

next week will be a sanji chapter

cause this one had zoro doing something

[long basin]

Oda just wants to tell us he is moving with light speed and became invisible

[warm fossil]

i lack the whimsy for that

[warm fossil]

coincidentally the chapter was also peak...

[long basin]

only a skull joke can save the world, remember that!

[grim ermine]

Yeah the chapter was fine

[long basin]

because of Brook

[grim ermine]

I liked zoro's segment

[warm fossil]

brook got his one in 400 chapters big moment

[long basin]

I was a bit confused what happened there, did he block both attacks and redirected them towards dory and broggy?

[grim ermine]

I think they swung at him and they missed

[warm fossil]

pretty sure he just dodged and they hit eachother

[scenic dirge]

He dodged

[long basin]

I see, thanks!

[grim ermine]

I hope usopp gets to do something soon anyways

He's free at least

[long basin]

yea and we saw his attacks have some oomph

[warm fossil]

this is highkey the worst gif of all time lol

[final trench]

[novel berry]

https://tenor.com/view/skeleton-mad-skeleton-gif-10886506202898815019

[warm fossil]

0.3 seconds long, gets no value from being a gif, has a fucking cursor in the middle

[hearty shore]

i interpreted it as them impaling each other so as to resist domi reversi

[warm fossil]

what am i looking at

[scenic dirge]

And it’s other series 😉

[long basin]

Wrook

[warm fossil]

i feel like by these standards every single gif posted here would get deleted

[long basin]

and maybe they should

[scenic dirge]

https://tenor.com/view/chopper-one-piece-chopper-spin-luffy-one-piece-gif-17850360145866083828

This one wouldn’t

[warm fossil]

what is that

[scenic dirge]

I like ya cut g

[clever idol]

Animal and child abuse

Thats what it is

[jaunty dragon]

Can someone explain did zoro cut dorry and brogy or did they cut each other?

[scenic dirge]

Nah nah he has to pick one or the other. He can’t double dip

That’s unfair

[clever idol]

Thry cut each other

[scenic dirge]

Greedy ass

[warm fossil]

thanks i got it today

[jaunty dragon]

Tf djd zoro do then i thought he djd anofhsd attack

[scenic dirge]

Lot of letters there

That I think are in the wrong place

[warm fossil]

that's actually how you construct most sentences

[scenic dirge]

Not me

[solid mantle]

Hey guys, I'm so tired

[warm fossil]

hi so tired i'm adood with good

[long basin]

then go to bed!

[solid mantle]

Wait it doesn't work with you

[warm fossil]

i feel like it doesn't work with most people

[long basin]

most people could try to make it work though

[solid mantle]

nah it's 17:30, and I've been awake since 7:30

[long basin]

why so tired you think?

[solid mantle]

true

[solid mantle]

studying

[clever idol]

Intersectionality is indeed greedy

[scenic dirge]

Yep

Chopper needs to pick a struggle

[clever idol]

Good what

[warm fossil]

that's what they all ask

[long basin]

I will begin studying soon, finished the thesis today, I guess

[warm fossil]

first time imu has looked cool btw

[long basin]

is there an X on Imu's forehead?

[final trench]

Kinda

[graceful grove]

Giants roasting Hajrudin

[long basin]

Hajrudin: "Respect their pride!"
Also Hajrudin: "Do whatever"

[celest mauve]

notice how when imu possessed a man, they tanked six top-tiers but when they possesed a woman, they got blocked by brook

[solid mantle]

this was cool too

and this

[graceful grove]

this will be the last time Imu will posses a woman. he has seen enough

[warm fossil]

to be fair just straight up imu with no possessions got speed blitzed by cobra

[celest mauve]

the drums of oppression 🥁

[celest mauve]

[celest mauve]

cobra upscale

[warm fossil]

imu is just always mentally nerfed

and by that i mean stupid

[prisma yacht]

https://tenor.com/view/coincidence-i-think-not-coincidence-i-think-not-the-incredibles-gif-5096707

[celest mauve]

when are luffy and loki going to stop fucking around in the underworld btw

[warm fossil]

right when all hope is lost

[graceful grove]

Ragnir went rogue and they can't get past him.

[celest mauve]

luffy sensed imu's haki and then decided to stay back because of the prospect of hearing more about shanks, and now wanted to see loki in action even though his crew has been in danger for a while now

great captain fr

[hearty shore]

don't worry he'll show up to save the day when everyone becomes a demon

[warm fossil]

btw @ashen perch @digital spear remember when zoro and sanji vs dorry and brogy was a "mid diff fight for dorry and broggy"

"speed doesn't matter"

[hearty shore]

with his secret nika power that undoes domi reversi

[warm fossil]

"not actual mr3 victims its fine it was a long time ago"

[gloomy tree]

he trusts that they can handle themselves

[graceful grove]

he freed 20000 murderers from prison to save his criminal brother. he is the most selfish man on the planet

[golden valley]

Dorry and Brogy cant even tag base Zoro 😭

[prisma yacht]

@urban lodge I didn't mean his fears he has been facing them all along
I meant his split personality or shld I say the lack of confidence
almost everything in post is a build up for him bursting out that bridge between personalities

[celest mauve]

at the start of chapter 1152

[runic dock]

Yeah I loved when the second pic happened

[hearty shore]

imagine being overthrown by a dude and because of him you get sent to prison, then the same dude comes and breaks you out of prison later on

[celest mauve]

later in the chapter

[hearty shore]

that's literally crocodile

[graceful grove]

i know he don't trust Usopp to beat a cat

[runic dock]

Luffy means in the general sense

[celest mauve]

he literally heard just shanks's name and decided that takes precedence over collun's life and whoever else, like are we fr now

[warm fossil]

last time the shs started a fight with a god without luffy literally everyone got dropped

[graceful grove]

Colon ready to throw hands with sommers he didn't want the smoke

[warm fossil]

so idk why he trusts them to do anything

[runic dock]

Cause they’re stronger now , also they held off Saturn well enough

Reread egghead

[warm fossil]

"reread egghead" as if i ever read it

[runic dock]

Exactly

[warm fossil]

(never reading it btw)

[runic dock]

😔

[warm fossil]

i will not voluntarily read panels of saturn

[gloomy tree]

the story and all also didnt take that much time, he had to wait so Loki was freed

[graceful grove]

Vivi reading the news about Luffy doing this on top of recruiting his right hand

[runic dock]

You know what that’s fair

[hearty shore]

nobody can waterboard me into reading davy back fight arc

[runic dock]

I only read imu panels because I have to for example

[celest mauve]

they delayed him long enough to get robin out of the way and he still ran through them to get to punk records anyway lol

[runic dock]

To know what I’m gonna shit on

[celest mauve]

but they did the job they needed to, credit to them

[prisma yacht]

@hallow herald what was the connection you were talking about shanks and naruto earlier

[ornate tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/shanks-gif-26409974

[runic dock]

At least he didn’t get Robin tho!

[golden valley]

Wait, are you an Imu rider or Blackbeard rider, I forgot

[prisma yacht]

I can never reread egghead

[runic dock]

Bb since jaya and have never switched

I have standards and morals

[celest mauve]

yeah, but it's just funny thinking of how much more luffy by himself can do compared to half his crew, punching holes in saturn's body and incapacitating him for some time

[runic dock]

And convictions

[celest mauve]

the rest stalled him for like 2 mins at most, did minimal damage and then got overwhelmed

[warm fossil]

they said everyone would jump on the imu train once we saw more of him but genuinely the more we see the less i like him

[runic dock]

Oh definitely lmao , oda had to come up with a reason to hold him back cause he’d dog walk everyone upstairs

[prisma yacht]

Earl supporting all the good agendas

[runic dock]

That’s why I feel Domi loki is inevitable

[warm fossil]

when domi loki unexplainably loses to hajrudin 📈

[clever idol]

Domi loki means fully healed loki

[runic dock]

[runic dock]

Healed , buffed loki

[golden valley]

This chapter just reinforced why bb is so much better

[runic dock]

May not be able to use the hammer tho , we’ll see

[golden valley]

Oda, kill Imu this arc

[graceful grove]

that will be the day OP reach rock bottom

[runic dock]

That would be so funny if he did right now

But probably not 😔

[trim lily]

oda should kill off both blackbeard and imu

[golden valley]

Akainu final villain?!

[runic dock]

Peter final villain?

[celest mauve]

hajrudin's bumness was called out this chapter, so maybe he'll finally do something worthy of harald's legacy

[hearty shore]

luffy is gonna tell imu "i know this isn't you"

[ornate tartan]

let the story flow

the payoff will be great

[trim lily]

i can’t wait for his big moment

[graceful grove]

harald knew he wouldn't do shit even in dying moment when he only glazed Loki

[celest mauve]

best time to invest in hajrudin and usopp stocks when both look like ass rn

[celest mauve]

lmao true

[trim lily]

tried to sneak in usopp there

nice try

[tough dust]

hajrudin ain't doing bad so far

[warm fossil]

added "rn" as if hajrudin hasn't always been ass

[celest mauve]

I don't dislike him that much unfortunately, I still think he'll finally get a big moment this arc

if he doesn't, well
that's tough

[trim lily]

i won’t mind if he does but so far i think it’d be funnier if he didn’t

[tough dust]

i have yet to see like the ass part unless we stuck with the dressrosa era or the fact hes not as as broken brother.

[golden valley]

Hajrudin about to oneshot Dorry and Brogy

[celest mauve]

lowkey wouldn't mind seeing the fandom fallout in that scenario

[ornate tartan]

if he does then he is a beast

[graceful grove]

in before that moment is blocking just one of Dorys attacks where he is incapacitated for rest of the arc

[runic dock]

“I don’t dislike him that much unfortunately “ is so funny

[prisma yacht]

[ornate tartan]

there isn’t any turning back for usopp

[runic dock]

It’s so unfortunate

[celest mauve]

[ornate tartan]

he literally HAS to get something or it’s over😂😂

u will never see a character get slandered more

[runic dock]

Hajrudin will talk Domi loki out of Domi with a heart to heart brother talk

[prisma yacht]

Apart from the bumass fandom

[ornate tartan]

well they gonna do it regardless

[prisma yacht]

Even if usopp doesn't get anything big there's still a lot of hope

[ornate tartan]

but i know usopp will get his praise too

[graceful grove]

oda reduced him to a cheerleader last chapter

[runic dock]

Jk

[clever idol]

Hajrudin isnt dislikeable as much as he just doesnt have as much as he could going for him

[runic dock]

He’s always been that except the times he’s forced to get off his ass and act

Usopp is only useful when no one else is

If Someone else can be relied on he won’t act

[prisma yacht]

Talk no jutsu

[ornate tartan]

we talking about 20+ years of waiting and expectations

[graceful grove]

funny enough this was precisely the time. rest of the crew was tied up or nowhere to be seen....

[runic dock]

Well I was happy with dressrossa Usopp , it’s just those are few and far between

[prisma yacht]

Is thigh online

[celest mauve]

predictions for some of the SHs:
nami: will work with the parent giants to shepherd the kids away from danger
sanji: will confront sommers to drop his thorns and repay the favor to robin from wano
jinbe: put out the school and library fires
usopp: idk, cheerleader for now

[runic dock]

Brook was able to act , he alone undid the arrow power

For a second

[clever idol]

If only he treated the rest of the crew with as much care as the monster trio

[runic dock]

Usopp didn’t have to act

[runic dock]

Yeah lol

Probably not enough time for everyone to have focus always

[ornate tartan]

he was good in dressrosa forsure
elbaph is the arc that people have been waiting for usopp for a long time so i think there would be a lot of disappointment if he doesn’t exceed what he did in dressrosa here

[prisma yacht]

Oh ye I was going to drop my predictions after this chapter too

brb

[graceful grove]

it will go down as Odas biggest criticism i feel.

[runic dock]

Hopefully he does something I will also be disappointed if he doesn’t , but it’ll look like all Usopp fans should give up before he has his moment I’m sure just like dressrossa , he looked absolutely abysmal the moment before it happened lol

[celest mauve]

brook is finally getting something substantial after so long, so maybe there's some hope for the others

[ornate tartan]

it’s different then a fandom proclaimed arc like franky and egghead

[celest mauve]

like brook has unironically has more hype and setup for continued and future relevance than everyone barring luffy in elbaf rn

[graceful grove]

this is do or die arc for usopp

as a character

[runic dock]

Also agreed , elbaf is Usopp’s proclaimed by the story

Usopp talking about elbaf like it’s his

[celest mauve]

the fandom created their own expectations for zoro and wano as well as franky and egghead, but usopp and elbaf has been in the works since the early 2000s

[runic dock]

Yeah

[clever idol]

Yep but its also fan service since most read the story foe those 3

[graceful grove]

usopp and elbaf thing is created by oda himself

he has to deliver

[runic dock]

Also WCI was proclaimed as year of Sanji lol so there’s that as well

[brittle basin]

Oda can't just deliver, he has go above and beyond with Usopp. Anything less and no one will be happy.

[clever idol]

The way usopp didnt get this level of love

[brittle basin]

I wasn't caught up during that time, but by comparison Sanji got some time to shine within the context of his personal story.

[graceful grove]

oda always like to set himself as more different to the usual mangaka that fall for that trap but past few years he have been walking on that same path.

[clever idol]

Nah its always been that way. Zoro sanji and luffy have always been meant to be the main pull for the series since baratie and arlong park. They all symbolize a different aspect of the male power fantasy

[graceful grove]

Jinbei almost seem upset that he has to do something now instead of sitting on his ass

[clever idol]

Like get your ass up and fight back against oda's ass writing!!

Stop letting him do u like this

[tranquil blade]

Jinbe was almost done thinking there

[clever idol]

In his defense its been a rollercoaster for him since wci

Mans did not sign up for all this bs

The shs never catch a break

Jinbe is still processing the trauma of onigashima

[graceful grove]

Nami immediately jump into action trying to free robin but she said nah like when Revs offered to teach her haki

[hot cairn]

he's been thinking for a year now

[graceful grove]

my favorites getting dragged through the mud chopper is the only hope left

[spice cairn]

"W-WOAH I JUST DELETED THE ARROWS WITH MY FUCKIN MIND"

Jinbei probably

[tranquil blade]

I like how the giants are actually strong this arc and not just fodder but larger

[spice cairn]

I loved the combo attack

[tranquil blade]

Not to be a powerscaler or anything but it's nice to see them actually hold their own

[spice cairn]

And Road wanting to chime in

Very underrated moment of the chapter imo

That signature attack has to be one of the best attacks in the entire series.

Everytime it's used, it shreds

[graceful grove]

its the 3rd best moment of the chapter

[spice cairn]

You mean the 2nd.

1st was Sommers.

[graceful grove]

1st Colon telling sommer to square up man to man
2nd Hajrudin getting clowned

[tough dust]

i actually liked that they mentioned his dream

[graceful grove]

yea he will become next king no doubt

[cold steppe]

They're canonicaly strong, it's just they didn't have a good showcase

[graceful grove]

Loki can take off with his crew

[distant vine]

He doesnt try to do that

Oda is a powerscaling son

[graceful grove]

G5 was his last big statement

"everyone wants a serious mc so ill do the opposite"

[spice cairn]

Luffy is fairly serious though

[distant vine]

Well he likes being a goof. But this is right after King of Hell lmao

[spice cairn]

Its a good balance I'd say.

[graceful grove]

he is laughing while the old man he promised to save is getting swiss cheesed last arc

[distant vine]

In terms of the Monster Trio, idk if they necessarily got more spotlight

[ornate tartan]

oda will always do what he wants

[distant vine]

Its more like the wider world is

[ornate tartan]

these people who complain online must not know that he doesn’t see any of that shit😂

[cold steppe]

We know he does for at least Japanese ones

[spice cairn]

Idk he acknowledges this later into it and gets a bit angry about it. So again im not really sure what you're expecting atp.

Its a fairly good balance and that has always been the case minus the, eyes popping out in an outlandish way every move or two beforehand.

[brittle basin]

[wraith mantle]

So Brook is an absolute dumbass who actually believed gunko killed her father of her own volition lol

[graceful grove]

thats not the point i was making. i'm saying he is fairly different to the generic shoenen mangaka

[spice cairn]

Which is a good thing, yes.

Im glad we can go on a date over this shared opinion

[wraith mantle]

W cope

[spice cairn]

Daz Bones upscale...

[distant vine]

Is possession supposed to be the obvious answer?

[spice cairn]

How would Brook even know that

[distant vine]

Maybe there were conditions that could make purposeful killing reasonable

[graceful grove]

yea thats why op clears them xd i don't want the generic slop

[wraith mantle]

Yes

[distant vine]

Ala Harald and Loki

[distant vine]

Oh

[wraith mantle]

Brook clearly had a good relationship with gunko as a kid

[subtle salmon]

Unfortunately getting possessed by an unstoppable devil that rules the world is not most people’s first assumption

Brook is not at fault

[cold steppe]

I mean we don't even know who what or how to start judging

[graceful grove]

one of his nickname is satan. he should know better

[cold steppe]

It's just beginning

[wraith mantle]

Loki was blamed for it because people were already treating him a monster

Brook should have asked gunko for her side of the story

[distant vine]

Sometimes people you love do things you don't expect them to

[graceful grove]

it looks like another loki situation

[distant vine]

Youre assuming that last part. Maybe we should wait and see

[wraith mantle]

Real

[graceful grove]

imu don't want her to remember, she risked it to warn/save brook

[subtle salmon]

Brook blocked a hit from Imu

Brook upscale

[spice cairn]

Brook has always been that guy

[wraith mantle]

Only out here is if gunko was abducted shortly after, so Brook couldn’t ask her about the incident

[spice cairn]

This isn't new.

This is the same guy who stood up on Linlin.

He rolls with the punches.

[wraith mantle]

Called her a young lady too

Absolute beast

[subtle salmon]

Fr

[graceful grove]

issue is oda don't let them shine enough

he should get more moments like that

[runic dock]

It was probably a similar situation as to Harald but no one was there to tell Brook “hey it’s the king of the world brainwashing her 😬”

[latent hamlet]

Inb4 brook meets imu
And just calls them a stupid brat

[runic dock]

Like they did for Loki

[latent hamlet]

[spice cairn]

This was like two arcs ago but Brook was still putting in work

[brittle basin]

i like how piratefolk jump to conclusions about brook based on one panel

[graceful grove]

before or after asking for her panties ?

[runic dock]

Brook when he’s not trying

[subtle salmon]

Imu’s control wasn’t as firm as I thought

[latent hamlet]

Yes

[spice cairn]

They did the same with Bonney Nika

So nothing new.

[wraith mantle]

Yeah a situation where Brook couldn’t ask gunko because she was abducted shortly after or something

[runic dock]

Th last part makes perfect sense actually , that’s how you know piratefolk is full of garbage not knowing what they’re talking about literally ever

Oh wow it’s so hard to believe being in a stronger body makes you stronger? Damn

[spice cairn]

I assume they wanted the perfect blue haired vessel

[prisma idol]

We are reactionary and dont read or wait for more

[spice cairn]

And Gunko just matched quite well

[subtle salmon]

Is imu a pervert

[runic dock]

It makes zero sense how Imu’s power changes depending on who he takes over!!!! Reeeeeee I know everything!!!!

[subtle salmon]

Sanji upscale

[runic dock]

What a dumbass ^

[spice cairn]

Earl a minute didnt even past and you discredit yourself

[runic dock]

[spice cairn]

I think Gunko was probably napped or bargained out of the kingdom. And it paid a hefty priced for the latter later.

Thats just a spitball though

[graceful grove]

Vivi final villain

[tranquil blade]

One panel clash btw

[runic dock]

I bet that kingdom doesn’t even exist anymore

[graceful grove]

imu pulling out Vivis best move

[runic dock]

King gone , princess gone , best knight gone

[spice cairn]

Yeah because Imu fucking BLEW IT up

[graceful grove]

https://tenor.com/view/one-piece-vivi-miss-wednesday-hypnosis-dance-gif-20074652

[subtle salmon]

Brook reacting to Imu’s speedblitz 💯

[tranquil blade]

I dont like this gif

[runic dock]

All glory to the hypno tits

[spice cairn]

Tbf if I am correct though, why didnt Imu go straight for Vivi.

Such questions

I suppose theres some annoyance grievances im probably not considering for it to not happen

[runic dock]

He has a problem with blue haired people consistently

[brittle basin]

https://tenor.com/view/futurama-toad-frog-mesmerized-gif-3938170

[runic dock]

Buggy is going to be a problem for imu

[graceful grove]

imu will be doing it to the whole world to hypnotize them into thinking Luffy is the bad guy

[runic dock]

Based on blue hair

[spice cairn]

Yeah but vivi is like, the ideal one since she is apart of that Lili lineage

[prisma idol]

Blue hair is irrelevant

[spice cairn]

Which makes it a bit confusing

[prisma idol]

More than likely

[graceful grove]

ill put money on him being the next one to sit on that throne

[runic dock]

Don’t you dare call buggy irrelevant

He’s the key

[cold steppe]

Also because he's xebec's successor

[prisma idol]

Gunko wasn't garunteed to have blue hair in the cover colors oda did

Its pure coincidence

[spice cairn]

Buggy is a black haired guy who dyed himself blue

[dense rapids]

Considering Brook’s words about the holy knights, him saying Gunko was connected to the holy land and Gunko already wearing her blade attire while screaming for her father

Maybe she had already farmed a pact before Brook left

[spice cairn]

No, no. We know Oda sees everything 50 years ahead..

[runic dock]

It’s just more examples of goda foreskin

[wraith mantle]

Imu fans, we need to talk

[spice cairn]

Oda predicted the Simpsons predicting whatever

[prisma idol]

As for the clash, could you not use the same logic that Kizaru fans use for Him vs Luffy. Gunko Is seemingly fighting against the control of Imu at this moment thanks to her memories. This is probably weakening Imu

[spice cairn]

Teech is dying before Imu?

[prisma idol]

Add to the fact it isnt imu's main body

[runic dock]

That’s definitely the case

[spice cairn]

Thats true.

[runic dock]

Her heart is wavering

Her strikes are shallow

[spice cairn]

Well, yeah thats the best assumption.

Its clear shes wrestling control

And imu is investigating Brook anyways

[cold steppe]

Imu is not even here. He's just gaming from his home

[prisma idol]

Also it was a single clash, we have no aspects on what happened after or the full recations from the hit

[graceful grove]

once imu loose control of her, she is getting saturned

[spice cairn]

So theres not really a reason to land the killing blow right now. Especially on someone who can hold his own.

[runic dock]

Yeah like even if Brook can somehow hack her body an free her , she still has the tattoo

Maybe imu can kill her no matter what

[graceful grove]

she is not making out of Elbaf

[cold steppe]

Yeah but did Imu kill saturn or his real age did ?

[graceful grove]

sommer is too fun to not have him in final war

[cold steppe]

She could just be 80

And be alive

[spice cairn]

Imu severed the link, which allowed all those years catch up to him.

Thats how I see it.

[runic dock]

Also possible just depends how imu power works exactly

[dense rapids]

Wait Brook used Haki

[spice cairn]

Though Imu can yknow, kill you if they're linked to begin with.

Thats possible.

[runic dock]

Nah lol it’s a shadow

[dense rapids]

The shield wasn’t black

[dense rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/maintaining-the-agenda-agenda-is-priority-priority-agenda-maintain-the-agenda-the-agenda-gif-3278548794073012331

[runic dock]

The haki would be more noticeable and bubbly black

[spice cairn]

Its the shading... 💔

[graceful grove]

i doubt even if thats the case, imu will allow such a big loose end

[spice cairn]

Yknow how painful an exorcism is?

It'll probably take a big toll regardless of how it plays out.

[prisma idol]

No

[prisma idol]

Maintaining agenda nowadays means throwing away your reading comprehension 🥀

[dense rapids]

Brook in 5

[brittle basin]

Imagine thinking I had any to begin with.

[spice cairn]

[brittle basin]

I will end that horse

i swear it on my life

[prisma idol]

The horse never dies buffy

[dense haven]

any brook fans in chat

[spice cairn]

Horses are very tough

I hate Brook leave me alone

[rose rune]

https://tenor.com/view/wink-winking-lone-star-lone-star-winking-horse-winking-gif-23190293

[brittle basin]

[hot cairn]

you really love that horse

[rose rune]

I'm a Rodo fan

[prisma idol]

My posting it is an actual addiction

[rose rune]

https://tenor.com/view/horse-fun-ball-oops-slip-gif-15111692

[wraith mantle]

Brook was bound to be mega important simply because he’s old af

[rose rune]

horses falling was my favorite part of red dead redemption 2

I love ragdoll physics

[brittle basin]

Me trying to consume a new chapter

[spice cairn]

https://tenor.com/view/horse-spinning-spin-water-hose-gif-12360101317814386181

[muted hedge]

red dead redemption 2 is probably my favorite game of all time

[tough igloo]

not my fav but easily the best open world game imo

[brittle basin]

yee haw

[dense rapids]

So Gunko was already a god blade but something happened afterwards that caused her father to die

Brook is like the Loki in this situation

Loki said he experienced the knights before and it was Harald

Brook said this must be the holy knights so he probably knows of them because Gunko was already one

[prisma yacht]

It's okay arthur I have a plan

[muted hedge]

i've probably replayed it like 5 times, and on each new playthrough i've discovered something new which i didn't know about on the previous playthroughs, keep in mind that each of these playthroughs are probably 200+ hours on their own right

[brittle basin]

Gunko is part of the Manmayer family, but was it ever stated she was born into the family?

[rose rune]

well, whatever happened to gunk happened a long time ago, so it's probably not important

[prisma yacht]

[dense rapids]

We reading the same manga?

[prisma yacht]

Yeah brook shld learn to move on

[rose rune]

oooh, you read. that makes sense. I only look at the pictures

[muted hedge]

it's definitely the most immersive game, i've played

anyways

[dense rapids]

GTA6 soon

[muted hedge]

very excited for that, though i am probably even more excited about the possibility of Red Dead Redemption 3

[dense rapids]

We shall not see it in our life time

This next game gonna get milked until Three Piece

[rose rune]

rockstar is gonna make bully remastered first

[urban lodge]

If a rdr3 is ever made I really hope it's an entirely new cast

[rose rune]

https://tenor.com/view/algie-bully-jimmy-hopkins-gif-27320700

[muted hedge]

i'd like for it to be a prequel of sorts, i won't go into more detail though

i think you know what i am refering to, if you've played the game

[ashen rose]

This is a surprisingly scary face, even with the shot

[prisma idol]

Its just bad scans

[ashen rose]

Brook is the first strawhat to face off against imu in a way

[ashen rose]

When low quality makes something sacrier

[prisma yacht]

Nope

[craggy vapor]

Sommers is about to get sacrificed

[brittle basin]

I wish Imu would sacrifice me.

[dense rapids]

Watch it be the opposite and Mu buffs him

[craggy vapor]

he would then be Johnny level at best

[ornate tartan]

the game is over

[dense rapids]

I wiill be here when the lvl 3 Sommers glaze starts

[spice cairn]

He literally batted away a Oar sized character with barely any effort.

[craggy vapor]

Sommers and glaze in the same sentence is a grammatical crime.

[hybrid hazel]

And then sommer gets slimed by loki

[dense rapids]

Oda not fooling me he’s portraying him as the most clown holy knight just to hit him with a power boost

He’s not killing the best celestial dragon this arc

2.6 HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBIN!🥳
#ONEPIECE

X · Feb 5, 2026, 9:01 PM

[glacial bear]

Truee

All 3 God Knights likely have awakened their devil fruit abilities as well

[dense rapids]

Gunko looks awakened

Killingham idk the clouds are weird

And Sommers hasn’t turned anything into thorns I think

Gunko showed awakeness when fighting Loki she turned the ground into arrows

[glacial bear]

I think it’s manly due to the nature of the Kirin fruit, which could be why the clouds are white

[dense rapids]

The clouds are supposed to symbolize awakening but some people don’t think that

[glacial bear]

Sommers seems to be creative with the thorns in the same way Doffy was with the strings. Weaponizing the power of love into something sinister in his favor is interesting

[dense rapids]

Idk if it’s agenda against Yamato and Kaido

[glacial bear]

https://tenor.com/view/yamato-one-piece-one-piece1041-kaido-craztic-gif-27363377

Hmmm. For Yamato, since it’s a zoan could be very possible

I would like for Oda to explain the black & white clouds of zoans & if that means they’re awakened

[dense rapids]

Ngl I think he’s just waiting till VC flashback until we actually see the DF process

[dapper tree]

Brook hype

[dense rapids]

Feel like it would’ve been answered in the egghead sbs

[glacial bear]

I would’ve assumed like The 5 Elders, Lucci, & Kaku. That the black clouds could’ve meant evil but seeing Saint Killingham with white clouds sorta throws off the whole evil automatically having black clouds dynamic

[dapper tree]

The clouds don't mean anything

[glacial bear]

Especially since I don’t see Giraffes being evil 😆

[dapper tree]

Oda just does it cause it's cool

[glacial bear]

Honestly fair. That’s very heavily possible too lol

[dapper tree]

It's like black lightning

[dense rapids]

Blackbeard awakening gonna have the black clouds too

[dapper tree]

Oda just started using it for whatever

[glacial bear]

I wonder what Zoan Blackbeard will get

[dense rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/imu-one-piece-gif-10670798720414716467

[brittle basin]

You talking about haki-infused lightning Enel? Yeah, I can't wait for him to show up too, Pasta.

[muted hedge]

probably some Nika like deity

it feels inevitable at this point

[dark nymph]

https://tenor.com/view/goated-slide-ice-goat-jump-gif-27617241

[dense rapids]

Hito Hito no mi- Sea Devil

[muted hedge]

would that even work, lol

[dense rapids]

I mean we have a Nika fruit

[dapper tree]

He will

[muted hedge]

yeah but Nika is more or less a being
i mean so far we've not had anything to say that there is a physical sea devil who has existed or exists

and Imu already kinda fits that bill

[dense rapids]

Imu has the sea Devil fruit (if Imu power is a DF)

[muted hedge]

i don't think so

i think that Imu has more or less the powers of One Piece iteration of satan

[dense rapids]

People say it’s impossible for Imu ability to be DF because it seems too op

But we have people like law and Luffy

[formal wagon]

i hope so 😔

[muted hedge]

i don't think it's too overpowered, i just think that Imu doesn't use their powers like one would a devil fruit

[dense rapids]

Law just creates new techniques out his ass

[glacial bear]

Woah

[dark nymph]

Imu might just be some chud who got a really good DF

[dense rapids]

Excuse me language

[brittle basin]

Imu's power could be a DF, the energy from the First World, Demon Realm™ powers from a pact made long ago, who even knows at this point.

[dense rapids]

Yea idk why people think it’s impossible

[glacial bear]

Oh no it’s all good lol

[dense rapids]

Could just have THE devil fruit

[glacial bear]

I almost read it as literally 😂

[runic dock]

I still think it’s an awakened devil devil fruit

[dense rapids]

Honestly I think people only said that because it’s Blackbeard upscale

[muted hedge]

i'd prefer if Imu is just a master at satanic magic

[runic dock]

All his abilities seem to be about distributing his own power

[brittle basin]

I'm sticking with Demon Realm powers for now.

[runic dock]

Like a devil making deals

[brittle basin]

Imu loves demonhood

[runic dock]

And it’s awakened mythical because the devil took over the host

[dense rapids]

The same as sugar but gives them a boost

[muted hedge]

i mean yeah most of those who think that Imu has a devil fruit are only saying so because they prefer Blackbeard, lol

[runic dock]

Awakened zoans have a chance of completely taking over the user (see: luffy’s laugh in g5, th awakened zoans in impel down)

I think the most EXTREME case of this happened to imu

[dense rapids]

Yea im not saying it just because of BB js Imu vs Joy Boy could just be two DF users fighting

[muted hedge]

i think it will call back to this

[spice cairn]

I salute

[brittle basin]

one issue is we have imu in the mural, on the right side closest to the First World. Could they be an actual demon who just took over Nerona Imu later down the line and then had the immortality surgery? Then that begs the question, are demons not immortal?

[muted hedge]

also, i think that the contracts are built upon Imu taking soul from those who they place a contract upon

[spice cairn]

I think they're moral within a human body.

[brittle basin]

She ate the Hot Topic no mi

[spice cairn]

The body can only last long

[runic dock]

Nah it’s just the most logical conclusion , not any of this ethereal hell or heaven shit , literally just devil fruits because that’s what this series has all been about lol , nothing to do with bb at all

Agenda brain go brrrrr

[spice cairn]

So they require constant vessels and rituals and blah blah

You know how the devil works.

[runic dock]

This was a cult that may just be believing in bullshit, doesn’t mean we have to lean on their words like it’s a clue for some truth

[muted hedge]

i know that you're pushing for Blackbeard, lol
you don't need to hide it, just own up that you think that Imu should have a devil fruit so Blackbeard can steal it

[spice cairn]

This cult was also made way before any insane Imu nukage

Tbf.

It was probably for the gag™

[runic dock]

That doesn’t have anything to do with bb stop bringing him into this , I can push for him without completely going brain dead about

[formal wagon]

chapter supposedly

so they say

[dense rapids]

2013 - “Brook had the most useless timeskip arc”

2026 - “my god Brook timeskip arc was the most important in one piece”

[spice cairn]

They say a chapter is coming next week rumors have it.

[glacial bear]

Oda foreshadowing

[muted hedge]

Blackbeard is a part of the discussion, as most who think that Imu should have a devil fruit are rooting for Blackbeard to be the final villain or whatever, it's not a matter of if it fits in this discussion, it's a root of most of the discussions surrounding Imu's powers as a whole

[glacial bear]

“I wonder who scares ya most. Joyboy, Davy Jones…or Brook!”

[muted hedge]

it's definitely important, i have no doubts about that

[dense rapids]

Oda foreshadowed abyss with two cover pages over 10 years before Imu 😭

[muted hedge]

i mean, a lot of things which people thought weren't connected to anything have been shown to be very vital for the current story beats. so i wouldn't neglect anything at this point

[ashen rose]

Brook would hear the name joyboy and would go"oh, the rookie who I lend my strawhat too? I remember him yo-ho-ho"

[spice cairn]

And that is also the problem. But I digress.

[runic dock]

It’s crazy how I’m such a normal ass fan that you can’t fathom me not having an agenda take about something just cause I think bb will be final villain

Thinking imu power is based on a df can depend on so many other things such as context clues NOTHING to do with bb agenda lord Christ almighty

[dense rapids]

People say Oda just does a good job of tying in early chapters to recent events

But what if he really just had all of this planned

[spice cairn]

Im not saying theres not logic behind it, but for its time it was just so batshit insane for Brook to stumble on a god knows what ritual, and looking like an undead person, sort of makes it a gaggy scene.

Im sure Oda looks back and refines early panels and gives it purpose but theres also times you got to knowledge the context of it prior.

[dense rapids]

Like the shanks arm thing I can definitely see being a retcon

But I swear there’s Imu foreshadowing in the 100s chapters

[muted hedge]

i apologize then, lol
it's just hard when i previously saw you saying that all kinds of bad things about Imu and how much you want Blackbeard to take their place in the final spot.

and can you fault me when agenda is such a rooted part of this fandom? it's hard to know when people are seriously discussing and when they're just resorting to defending their agenda or whatever

[spice cairn]

Theres a different between Thriller Bark being enriched with background subtle tidbits that play into the world building later that only huge readers pick up on and a one off panel gag that maybe played into the story because it was coincidental

[runic dock]

Just cause it’s the secret king of the world everyone spazzing the hell out trying to come up with an explanation for his abilities when we already have a well established explanation DEVIL FRUITS , it’s IN THE FUCKING NAME LMAO

[spice cairn]

Its a gift from the devil to tempt humanity.

Yes.

[dense rapids]

“Brook and Luffy doing this stupid pose”

[muted hedge]

Imu might be the literal devil though

[spice cairn]

"AGGHHH NIKA IS REAL HOLY CHIRST SAVE ME LOREGODS"

[dense rapids]

I think Imu is just Imu

[runic dock]

Nah it’s just a devil fruit gone haywire , this was already setup by the existence of impel down awakened jailer beasts

[austere comet]

Glad Oda emphasized again that Hajrudin's dream involves an actual quest, given mediocre readers have been acting as if becoming Elbaf's king fulfills it/that Hajrudin doesn't have a voyage to sail.

[runic dock]

Nothing to do with bb

[muted hedge]

Chopper too, lol

[dense rapids]

And is either corrupted by his DF or the power of the devil he draws from

[spice cairn]

CP9 WAS FORETOLD A BAZILLIOM YEARS AGO HOLY ODA

[muted hedge]

if you say so, it's clear that we disagree

[runic dock]

I don’t care if we disagree , stop equating my points to being about bb agenda

[dense rapids]

This is what I think

[runic dock]

I’m way smarter than needing to lean on agendas for my points

[spice cairn]

I think this is a discussion that'll end with an agree to disagree because imo theres not really a clear explanation.

[dense rapids]

Ngl we’ll probably find out if it’s a DF or not by the end of the arc

[formal wagon]

um

[spice cairn]

I do believe Imu is something that isnt just a devil fruit going out of control, but I can't say much about that besides what we know.

[formal wagon]

anything cool happen this chapter

[runic dock]

Brook

[spice cairn]

Road too was in this episode.

[muted hedge]

well, i apologize once again then
it's hard to differentiate agenda from what you think when at some points you maybe preaching agenda and others talking about what you actually believe
you have to see, that it's hard to know the difference lol

[formal wagon]

any hype moments and or aura

[dense rapids]

No context

[formal wagon]

or just loreslop

[spice cairn]

Road was hype

[spice cairn]

It has everything

Loreslop, Gunkoslop, fight slop

Roadslop

Sommerslop

Fun for the whole family

[grand flower]

Yall fuck with the Imu downscale?

[runic dock]

I don’t mind disagreeing , don’t anyone dare blame my points on agenda brain rot tho

[muted hedge]

i don't see it as a downscale, to be honest

[spice cairn]

Well thats your and Sabaku's battle

[grand flower]

Brook ain’t blocking Kaido’s Hao

Hot that down

Hot

[trim lily]

he might

[grand flower]

Jot

[formal wagon]

nice

[trim lily]

we never saw brook fight kaido

[spice cairn]

This just ends up being a Big Mom upscale

Tbf.

[formal wagon]

yes he is

[brittle basin]

How does Goda do it?

[dense rapids]

Brook blocked Imu he can block anyone

[runic dock]

When the chapter comes out and I’m like typing in caps lock it’s all in good fun , but if I’m like typing a paragraph about something it’s not agenda backed I promise you , that’s all

[brittle basin]

Brook blocked Imu for .5 seconds until the next panel is shown.

[trim lily]

brook is now guard point chopper tier

[muted hedge]

good, that's all i needed to hear

[dense rapids]

Brook no haki going high diff with a acoc kick Imu

[formal wagon]

brook >= imu >= ragnir >= entire rocks pirates combined

[austere comet]

Zoro called Stansen and Hajrudin brothers

[formal wagon]

arashi really got around

[trim lily]

zoro’s father is harald

[muted hedge]

i think it's very likely that we see Brook be blown away from this attack from Imunko as it was a still frame but still we saw Brook unsteady in his stance almost like he was being propelled from the force of Imunkos dart at him

[grand flower]

That’s not true because this is an Imubecile downscale

[grand flower]

I admire the wishful thinking

I used to do the same with my father being a good man

[muted hedge]

it's not wishful thinking, it's what i see through the panel lol

[spice cairn]

I mean Imu being slightly weaker inside a mortal body makes sense

[grand flower]

Lemme tell ya something about hope kid

[spice cairn]

If thats the case anyways

[grand flower]

You’re better of better off selling ice to an Eskimo

[runic dock]

Imbecile? Imubecile? Genius!

[grand flower]

Smh I been saying this

You never listen, just like my ex-wife used to say to me

[trim lily]

i mean i think it’s safe to say brook probably isn’t stronger than imuko but who knows

[grand flower]

I think

I wasn’t listening

[runic dock]

What goes around comes around

[grand flower]

Revolutionary army

Because Dragon is just gonna become the new Imu

Just like Castro fucked up

[spice cairn]

Brook knows when to have the ball in his court.

[runic dock]

Imu gonna summon Domi Loki like that one character from that other series when they’re really desperate

[spice cairn]

He's just as fearless as Franky is.

[runic dock]

Yugi and dark magician

[spice cairn]

It doesn't matter if Brook isn't stronger.

He simply fights

[runic dock]

With this treasure I summon Domi Loki

[wraith mantle]

Nami is the most fearless

[grand flower]

Xiaolin Showdown?

[runic dock]

It starts with J and ends with the letter before L

[dense rapids]

You know whoever is arguing the Brook agenda is a Imu fan 🤣

[spice cairn]

I know Nami also has guts

But this is funny

[wraith mantle]

Usopp stray

[spice cairn]

Shes literally doing the "AIEEE SAVE ME" meme

[trim lily]

seeing zolo still takes me out

even after all these years

[brittle basin]

ugh, so WHINY /s

[marble tinsel]

sybau💔

[spice cairn]

I hope Teech screams for Cloud Ooga to save him

[runic dock]

Brook will solo imuko and be like what what happened? Did we win? As if he just didn’t do half the work

[muted hedge]

i think you see very clearly that Brook is losing balance here, because of the blow from Imunko, i am willing to guarantee that Brook will be on the ground next chapter before Loki and Luffy i assume saves him from this situation

[runic dock]

Modest humble brook will never steal luffys limelight

[wraith mantle]

Brook is one of the gods mentioned in skypiea confirmed

[maiden charm]

@cosmic hamlet is it fine if I attack 15? Really doesn't matter who I attack(because im underleveled )I got a strat that could 2 star it potentially

[spice cairn]

I can't for Kuma's corpse to fly into Gunko, explode, and the arc is saved.

[trim lily]

imagine rocks hijacks the upcoming gunko flashback too

[runic dock]

Somebody is copying Pedro super hard smh

Get your own cool way to die

[brittle basin]

he won't be corpse for much longer.

[grand flower]

Jojos bizarre adventurek

[trim lily]

the new stella clone should sacrifice itself to stop imu too

[spice cairn]

Loki and Luffy are walking up to the fight and he randomly tells him "So.. You know the skeleton in your crew? Blabbers about the flashback for no reason"

[grand flower]

COOK

[brittle basin]

Speaking of explosions, can Baby 5 become a nuclear weapon?

Can Baby 5 become Uranus?

[spice cairn]

Kuma is more fitting to rid Imu's soul

But we arent ready for the convo

[muted hedge]

at the expense of her own life, sure?

[dense rapids]

Didn’t she turn into a nuke

[runic dock]

I think you know what it is smh

[spice cairn]

She needs to see it and believe it.

[trim lily]

kuma dying in this arc of all things would be kinda funny

[urban sluice]

its before bro was born?

[brittle basin]

She did?

[spice cairn]

https://tenor.com/view/kuma-one-piece-anime-shichibukai-gif-20290963

[trim lily]

rocks can find a way

[brittle basin]

A missle maybe?

[spice cairn]

Kuma is doing this to Gunko btw

[brittle basin]

i think I know what drawing you're talking about Buggy

[muted hedge]

i think that Kuma will remain out of commission through this arc

[dense rapids]

Vaguely remember her turning into a bomb

[wraith mantle]

Like do I have powerscaling brainrot or does Brook tanking an Imu attack without even haki a bit too much fuckery?

[brittle basin]

She'll somehow pull a Pell.

[grand flower]

Maybe Kuma can push Imu out of Gunko

[runic dock]

Kuma get your brain dead ass back to work we need you to do things for us

[runic dock]

[trim lily]

you have a little brain rot yeah

[brittle basin]

this is what I remember

[dense rapids]

We’re eating until Brook is flung across Elbaph next chapter

[trim lily]

i don’t really mind it since it was cool :)

[dense rapids]

Yea that

[runic dock]

Bobobo reference

[mighty shell]

bullet bill

[brittle basin]

nose hair haki when?

[wraith mantle]

Is this your serious take?

[trim lily]

yeah

[wraith mantle]

Interesting

[muted hedge]

extremely cool moment, but as usual the fandom runs it into the pig pen

[spice cairn]

She can turn into a stick if you can convince her its a weapon

[brittle basin]

.......what if she views Gear 5 as a weapon?

[trim lily]

if it’s executed well i can forgive interactions and whatnot looking a bit weird

[grand flower]

Nope

[dense haven]

I told yall its brook szn

[spice cairn]

....Bomka

[grand flower]

Brook is a yonko commander

[runic dock]

Imu heart wasn’t in it , she was wavering , this type of thing has been setup by Harald and rocks fight an other fights in the past

[dense haven]

usoppbros in the mud

[runic dock]

A fan that remembers doesn’t have a problem with it

So yes brain rot

[grand flower]

Why would Imu waver

[wraith mantle]

Mental nerf it is

[grand flower]

For Brook

[brittle basin]

Imu and Brook are in a mental nerf-off

[runic dock]

Basically yes

[muted hedge]

this fandom is mentally nerfed

[dense haven]

no brook is mentally buffed

[dense rapids]

People saying Buggy real name might start with Sh

[runic dock]

Mental nerfs are very real

[wraith mantle]

I hesitate to chalk everything up to mental nerf 😭

[trim lily]

it’s not like brook is about to sweep imuko in a 1v1, it’s fine for him to be able to block an attack lol

[runic dock]

It’s how oda balances certain characters ability like kizaru a acting slow even tho he’s fast

[grand flower]

Why would Imu feel any type of way about sliming Brook

[dense rapids]

Shamrock Shuri

Shanks Sh????

[dense haven]

brook got that rage boost

[muted hedge]

because they're not in their body, they're using Shuri's body

[grand flower]

https://tenor.com/view/homelander-the-boys-gen-v-no-homelander-no-gif-5144619848989128837

Yo ass don’t know her like that

[muted hedge]

what?

it was in the chapter, lol

[grand flower]

It’s Gunko to you

[wraith mantle]

Lmaoooo

[muted hedge]

i don't care, lol
Shuri, Gunko or whatever

[runic dock]

Don’t call her sherri like you know her

Shuron is saying

[grand flower]

https://tenor.com/view/shuri-what-are-those-blackpanther-panther-tchalla-gif-11612859

[runic dock]

[trim lily]

don’t call me shirley

[dense rapids]

Ngl Gunko has aura

[brittle basin]

Shurion

[dense rapids]

Not calling her Shuri

[grand flower]

Ome gotta make sure he hit us with ome of these

[mighty shell]

sha la la itsuka kitto

[grand flower]

That’s really close to my real name

[runic dock]

Shuri on some crazy shit

[grand flower]

Yall bouta make me mad

Yall dunno Gunko like that

[trim lily]

interesting that she already had ties to the holy land back then

[runic dock]

Shuron is getting beaten by Brook next chapter

Whoops typo

I meant shuri

[muted hedge]

maybe she was from the Manmayer family even back then

[odd rune]

Brooky is a Holy Knighty confirmy

[muted hedge]

St. Manmayer Shuri

[trim lily]

i’m still holding onto my idea of her father being a god knight that tried to leave the order

[formal wagon]

mlegh

[trim lily]

[rose rune]

I think he was a good knight

good night everyone

[odd rune]

LMFAO dude ur name

[muted hedge]

i think that Imu took her under control as Imu wanted whatever kingdom that she was a princess of, similairly to why they took Harald

[odd rune]

I'm crine

[brittle basin]

Brook was a Holy Knight who got physically and mentally and amnesially nerfed, losing all his haki knowledge and power.

[trim lily]

good knight

[odd rune]

surely....

surely this time...

[trim lily]

this time for sure

[runic dock]

Probably that shuri was enticed to join holy knights like Harald was , and was brainwashed into killing , therefore the “holy land connection”

[trim lily]

i think it’d be kinda boring to do it again

i don’t think she went willingly considering what we saw in the brief glimpses

[muted hedge]

i think that Imu took control of her more so than they did Harald even

[runic dock]

It happened in the past , I guess it could go differently but I felt like that was leading into something like that happening in present , but I’m open to anything , it just seems that way

[muted hedge]

maybe to the extent where Gunko couldn't return to their kingdom because of Imu's actions by controlling her to do such heinous acts

[runic dock]

Wait not in the present , but an alternate past fb my bad

It would show a pattern in imus behavior at least

[muted hedge]

the biggest question i have is what kingdom Shuri was princess over

[brittle basin]

the arrow kingdom

goda

[muted hedge]

remember the boat which fell?

[trim lily]

vegapant’s island

[trim lily]

that boat was like 200 years old

[runic dock]

Could be some new stuff we never heard of until now

Could be vira

[muted hedge]

st. briss

[formal wagon]

if brook is from vira...

[spice cairn]

Willy gallon is a stupid asshole

[runic dock]

That would be cool too

[formal wagon]

if brook is from vira...

[runic dock]

We riot?

[trim lily]

imu is from vira

[formal wagon]

if brook is from vira i win the one piece award for 2025

[trim lily]

no

[muted hedge]

could be though didn't they have a coupe recently?

[runic dock]

It’s 2026

[trim lily]

you should’ve said that last year

[formal wagon]

🏆

[formal wagon]

and 2026

[runic dock]

Oh yeah , tbh I figure brooks kingdom has been totally wiped out

[formal wagon]

🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

[muted hedge]

yeah same

[trim lily]

that’s too many awards

[runic dock]

King gone princess gone best knight brook gone , they ain’t got shit over there left

[muted hedge]

hmm.. 'kingdom of briss'

though it's very, very old i guess

208 years ago, lol

[distant vine]

I wonder what Oda's gonna do with Gunko and Brook here

[runic dock]

If it turns out to be brooks kingdom this panel is insane cook
