Please man, the buggy thing needs to stop lmao. Imu IS thw World Government. The entire reason it is the way it is is because of his tyranny and knowledge of the past, making anyone a criminal who finds out the void century.
You remove that at ANY point before Laugh Tale, you defeat the purpose of Laugh Tale
Yes and that wouldn’t change if Cross Guild becomes the seat of power? Imu would still make knowledge of the past illegal because that’s knowledge of his existence.
Yall need to realize a few simple truths:
1. The world government and marines are genuinely liked by the world populace. We saw that in Marineford.
2. Luffy and the straw hats are never going to be portrayed as the villain in these final fights. So that means the opponentss of the straw hats need to be seen as a villain to the world
3. That literally can’t happen if luffy is defeating the only feeling of security most of the world has during the great pirate era.
The only way it works is if someone conquers the world government and makes it a wano situation where Luffy liberates the world from this conquering force.
Another thing is Mihawk is not going to lose prior to Zoros fight with him, he said he’s waiting at the top of the world for Zoro; sounds like a literal foreshadowing that he and Zoro will fight on the red line.
Finally, Whitebeards words themselves say that the world will be turned upside down. Meaning what’s on the bottom right now (the underworld literally lurking below the surface) will go to the top. The underworld which is connected to Cross Guild ending up as the rulers of this world literally aligns with whitebeards quote.
Yall may hate the idea, but acting like it’s a joke when it’s been hinted at in the manga cause yall don’t like the idea that buggy is going to keep rising is not the way to do it fam.
