Its funny how 3 lines of spoilers can really open the door on possibilities for future threads now.
Stussy being a Rocks clone inherently ties One Piece's 2 most elusive (and powerful?) entities together more than before. Those being Rocks and Im. When you factor in the fact that:
- Rocks went to God Valley (an island that had CDs reside on it for some reason).
- That Weevil and Bakkin are still at large.
- That Shanks was found there and alluded to be a CD member.
- That Blackbeard seems to have some characteristic and possible tie to Rocks himself.
- That Big Mom (and possibly Kaido) still have potentially unfinished plot
- That Rocks pirates like Ochoku, Shiki and Silver Axe are referenced/teased.
- That Dragon possibly looks like Xebec and we arent 100% sure about the father/son relationship with him and Garp
You can start to almost picture the scale the final arc is going for at least when it comes to potential revelations. Then factor in the whole Vegapunk/Kuma/Kizaru shit going on and it really feels like Fullalead/Elbaf are leading to some pretty cool lore implications/battles.
But yeah...Rocks and Im have to be tied together somehow. Mortal Enemies at the top of the world? Secret friends? Lovers? Are Blackbeard or Shanks a result of that? Or are they living wills of these characters?
So many interesting questions now..
