This flashback certainly changes my view on kaido . There is something mythical auroa about him .

Again he talks about end of kozuki clan ? If the translation are right we might have something about relation between kaido and kozuki he seems to have loath for them . This is same kaido who recruits strong ones in his army why kill him instead of jailing the guy for ever .

Okay let me say this....

Prophecy/Reincarnation thing is not new to shonen manga.....but OP has given completely different treatment to this thing....lets see

In case of Naruto, fourth hokage sealed nine tails in Naruto because of the prophecy and destiny while Dragon didn't give a shit about Luffy......

It is Luffy and Ace wanted to become pirate while Garp wanted them to become Marines.....

Luffy ate "gomu gomu no mi" accidentally...and became rubber.....

He gives the vibes of Roger according to many people even though Ace being the son of Roger......

WB preparing Ace to become next PK but he died in between because of BB......

Luffy decided to take Zoro as a comrade because he saved that little girl not because of some fate....

Most of the time fate offered him choices....
examples
1) like save Nami from Arlong or look for another Navigator
2) EL is said to be impenetrable fortress.....it is difficult to invade.....people who opposed WG are "fated" to die...Luffy and co went against fate and they were rewarded....
3) Same with ID/WCI.....

Remember Wano started because Luffy intercepted the phone call before PH....

At Saboady Luffy succumbed to fate and he experienced heavy loss....at MF, he couldn't go against the fate and save Ace....

So while it can be said that the fate guided Luffy to where he is , it is he who made "choices" and got rewarded/paid price.....

I will add more if I can think of more content....
 
When OPtards used to make fun of other mangas for "flashback within flashback" and "Chosen One" tropes, then last week and this week's chapter happened :cry:

"When that individual appears traversing through 800 years of time, we must be a country that can welcome and support him"
Messiah D. Luffy incoming!!

B-but Naruto was bad because he was chosen by Kyuubi :cry:

Maybe you are not reading it right , Whitebeard has already talked about someone taking roger's mantle in Marineford .

Yep Luffy could leave the fate as well. It was purely the choice he has taken the destiny chose him . All those events connects with the choice he made and left ?

I would say it has to do with D clan or something . The transgression or will of D is born every few years but it was waiting for someone to hold the mantle .

Roger had everything but he was too early to change the destiny did not choose him because poisedeon was not born .
 

Reborn

Throughout Heaven & Earth,I alone am d Honored One
Fate/No fate
Prophecy/No prophecy
Reincarnation/No reincarnation
Time travel/No time travel
New idea/old idea


It doesn't matter

What matters is execution and creativity in delivering the idea or concept. No author or manga has any copy right over an idea or concept. Stop saying 'oh it's like Naruto or dbz or blah blah blah..'

As long as story remains intriguing and blends these concepts well and author delivers on them we should be fine with it.

I remembered when time travel introduced in chapter 918...people went mad about it and even as far as saying how it is going to mess up OP story blah blah....then nothing happened as predicted by those regarding in that.....now this....

Oh, I forgot one more thing.....

Luffy didn't destroy FI according to the "prophecy".....
