Shanks is definitely putting his plan in action, he must have sent Dorry and Broggy for Luffy as some predicted.
I reuploaded this on ImgBB for whoever it was who couldn't see it too:
Whats the brutal part? The Giants destroying the Marine ships? Thats what Redon was hyping up as so "brutal"? Lmfao Oda going very meta on "they're asking why we're here!"
Thats exactly what I was thinking too, Ive been waiting for this kinda of extreme moral dilemma and wake up call for Luffy with him vs Shanks, something to actually make him snap and take Shanks seriously as a threat/enemy/obstacle and not hold back against him too.
Lmfao no. At least hes not permanently stuck jerking off behind a desk for over a decade IRL and being bitched at to fetch lobster for inbred, overgrown spoilt brats.
