Luffy is about to get clapped by his idol hate to see it.














:YeahBoi:
On one hand im extremely disappointed it couldnt just be Shanks to make this personal for Luffy, on the other now there shouldnt be an any internal conflict when he realizes its not him. So we get Luffy vs "Shanks" in a way without Blackbeard not having his moment too.

These Holy Knights are definitely the arc antagonists now.

The panel where Venusjuro says that one sentence to Akainu drops your agenda in the water.
How bro? What does being the “outward face” have to do with who the WG’s strongest fighters are exactly? The WG was telling Akainu they don’t care about the reputation of the Fleet Admiral, how exactly does that debunk that very same WG crowning its strongest fighters? You literally jumped from point A to point Z with absolutely no logic in between
 
Alright bois, a moment of silence for the Yankers. This is a very serious moment in the history of the One Piece fandom.

On this day, Shampebble’s older, non-crippled brother was confirmed to be a member of the WG military. Why does this matter, you ask?


HOH BABY.

On this day, 01/22/2025, Red Hairred Shampebble the gene merchant was confirmed to have an older, non-crippled brother who is weaker than the Admirals.

Admirals > Yonko bois, we won

I don’t care about your hidden fear of this becoming true ( Holy Knights > Admiral) since Robin will indeed declare that the Admirals are the best fighters of the World Government. After all, while the Admirals are the public face of the World Government’s military power, the Holy Knights operate in the shadows, so obviously the Admirals will be seen as their best dogs by the world’s civilians. That doesn’t mean it’s true.

Regardless of who is the best dog of the World Government, the hierarchy is like this: Yonkous > (Holy Knights or Admirals) >= (Holy Knights or Admirals), so they are fighting for second place because the first place has always had an owner.

I would also be concerned if a knight with the face of Shanks and with greater authority than the admirals, in short, can order the admirals and the FA around. LOL

Wow, how humiliating, thank goodness Kaidou is the boss of his own business, he doesn't have to go through this. LOL (All the Yonkos are).
 
I still think this cant happen until Luffy and Shanks at least reunite or see each other during the fight for One Piece.

The problem with Shanks vs Blackbeard occuring without Luffy will always have the same 2 issues, justifying his win on or off panel. Off panel means all that hype behind Shanks disappears because he was offscreened. On panel would need, what? 10, 20, 30 chapters of buildup and fighting to make all 10 of Shanks' crew to lose?


I definitely expect itll happen, but I expect it in a bigger war while Luffy is distracted with someone else (Akainu?) and Blackbeard takes advantage of a bigger situation that allows him to isolate Shanks or have his crew defeated on panel.

The key for him winning needs to he on the page and IMO it cant happen without being in front of Luffy (it also justifies Luffy taking down Blackbeard further if Shanks and Garp kick the bucket for example)
I don't think we need 10 chapters for Blackbeard vs Shanks. Ace vs Blackbeard had the perfect build up and it was what? 2 chapters? Make it 5 and it's enough.

There's enough build up throughout the story, this would be climax of that.

Because odas a hack he doesn’t want shanks to be part of the slave owners CD.
It’ll make ppl think he’s a villain

@Elder Lee Hung what's Blackbeard commander Kuzan doing btw? Is he training for his fight with Ben?
This is the funniest distraction job I’ve ever seen, but I’d probably be running equal damage control if I built my internet persona on thinking Shampebble would even be as strong as his older non-crippled Holy Knight brother, let alone an Admiral
:doffytroll:
 
what is the revos gonna do then?

I don't think HK are the villains here.

Holding out hope for villain loki :pepecopium:
Maybe some travel here and this is also a RA arc. Remember that Kuma and Vegapunk are also in Elbaf, two people close to Dragon. We know Dragon can travel however he wants via Wind assumedly and Karasu has transported Sabo to Dressrosa and Mariejoa (along with the other commanders) respectively.

Imo, its time we learn more about Dragon, this series doesnt have many arc left to explain his character.

Yeah but the difference was Ace was alone and clearly weaker than Blackbeard.

Shanks is Shanks, you know what I mean lol. I just cant see it being a direct repeat, it has to be a bigger part of the main story imo.
 
@JoNdule i 100% think Scopper is in Elbaf as that mysterious man because we need a Roger pirate now to explain Shanks' origin and why he's no longer a Celestial Dragon.

This is effectively Shanks' arc as much as it is Shamrocks it seems, so to understand one means we need to understand the other and Scopper realistically is the only person who can explain this now
Well if that's the case, it will be goof to find more about Shanks from Scopper

I still expect him to be at Roadster though
