Why don't you guys see Oda's pattern after all of these years? It's really irritating me.
In almost every arc(All of the strawhats present), the strawhats are the ones who defeat the main villain and his crew.
Wano will be no exception.
Page One, Ulti, Who's Who, Black Maria have already been matched up with the strawhats. I personally believe Brook will leave soon as well to get his matchup.
However, a few things need to happen before the other matchups begin.
Chopper's antidote story arc needs to come to a close. This will free up Xdrake to go elsewhere. Chopper will also have a chance to get his matchup as well. My guess is Number 1. The strongest number.
We have to see the conclusion of the fight on the roof. In this case, the defeat of the supernova's here. Only temporary ofc but this will allow other supernova to join in. Marco would also have the role of healing the supernova to some degree.
And about Queen & King.
Why are people ignoring parallels between Queen & king and Sanji & Zoro. King the serious cool type like Zoro, and Queen the funny, cool, yet powerful type like Sanji.
I can't make this up when saying that this is exactly like Kaku & Jabra in Enies Lobby. We even have them bickering in their introduction as Zoro and Sanji do all the time. But people continue to ignore it!
There's even a potential Judge storyline between Queen and Sanji already and they have yet to meet.
Come on, We just received Kalifa 2.0 for Sanji!
Have people really fallen for Oda's feints? He does this all the time! Even some of the initial matchups of Enies Lobby weren't the final ones. I wonder if people back then thought Ussop was going to fight Jabra.
Marco has stated himself that this new generation is going to take over! He will only be support and delay. The real matchups will begin eventually.
Look at the current circumstances. Yamato is finally on the move again. Sanji definitely chose to go save Momo. Jack is going to the scabbards. Hiyori is with the scabbards. According to spoilers, King and Marco may be going head to head soon without Queen. This frees him up. The "fake" matchups are beginning to dissolve!
WE EVEN HAVE A COLOR SPREAD NOW
All the main beast pirates! How can anyone really say that Xdrake is going to fight Queen with someone else? No! What is wrong with people? These are strawhat only fights. They are the Mc's of this story. The supernova squad are meant for Kaidou! For christ sake, Oden said 9 pirates would come and defeat KAIDOU.
Oda had written King and Queen's character at least 3 years before Wano began. Even saw Jack, queen, and King's names on notebooks that Oda had on his desk in 2015! He had ideas for these characters for so long! They're not meant to be taken down by non-strawhats. He had an entire notebook on these characters. AN ENTIRE NOTEBOOK. XDRAKE I REPEAT, X DRAKE WILL NOT TAKE DOWN A CALAMITY. Can we just keep agenda pushing at the front door?
i'm going to have stroke looking at these bait threads, and agenda pushing threads.
