The purpose of the flashback is to show what actually happened the day Harald died, it's not ending before that lol. Even with a fast and cutting corners pacing don't expect to get back to the present before the final pages of 1169
This flashback has a lot of parallels with the lolden flashback now that I think about it

Two of the most lengthy flashbacks in the manga.

A dumbass retarded clown as the focus.

Switching in the middle to the exploits of old legends.

The dumbass retarded clown making dumbfuck choices and getting tricked by the enemy and paying the price for it.

Their deaths.

Even the chapter numbers kind of align. Lolden flashback was from like 960 or something. And Harald flashback is around the same 200 chapters later.
 
Shamrock plants

Oxalis genus) are mildly toxic due to their content of soluble calcium oxalates, which can cause symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, and drooling in pets and humans. While a small nibble may not be harmful due to the plant's bitter taste, ingesting large quantities can be dangerous and potentially lead to kidney issues or renal failure, especially in animals.

Saturn feared being poisoned too:












Lmao wow:

Velvet Shank - Wild Food UK

No, velvet shank mushrooms (Flammulina velutipes) are not poisonous, but they have a deadly toxic look-alike called the Funeral Bell (Galerina marginata). It is crucial to be absolutely certain of the identification before eating wild mushrooms, as mistakes can be fatal.

Velvet is a deep red colour too and "Red Haired" Shanks is blatantly Irish too....

The names Shank and Shanks in Ireland are of immigrant origin having been brought into the Province of Ulster by settlers who arrived from England and Scotland, especially during the seventeenth century. It is in Ulster that the majority of descendants bearing these names can still today be found.

There's a very lethal poison called Hemlock as some of you may have heard about at least ofc:

Its seeds, flowers, leaves, roots etc contain toxic alkaloids. These toxic alkaloids can be fatal to humans and animals, even in small amounts. Even touching the plant can cause a skin reaction. There is no antidote for Hemlock poisoning.

Socrates was killed by it too.

TIMESPLITTERS LIVES! Its a miracle!
It’s so sus, betrayal has never been a Shanks theme and Barto isn’t even part of Luffy’s main crew, it just felt like Oda wanted to insert this for a future plot. :pepeiseeu:

A rat plot... :pepepoli:
Honestly I would have preferred it if Shanks was framed by Shamrock and he was the one doing this brutal shit.

I've never been more confused about Shanks in my life his writing is a huge messa, frustration and disappointment.

Buggy hating him seems way more personal, serious and thus deeper than the seemingly throwaway gag moment it was too.
Buggys DF ironically has been protecting him many times and kept him alive, especially when Luffy cruelly tried to sacrifice him to Mihawk too.

But this also helps explain why Shanks neglected and abandoned Uta so much too.
 
Lets be honest the only reason you are supporting Larald is him yielding to the wg serves your agendas he is even more garbage than Oden in reality :kata:
Nah for real, he isn't. Harald correctly realised that Rocks was not a winner, committing to helping him would've just made for a quicker downfall off him and his Kingdom, so he chose one of the two only options:
- stay closed off from the rest of the world.
- open up and cooperate with the WG.
Only criticism would be him falling on his knees offering to be a slave, when Elbaf had a very strong place on the negotiation table.

How could Harald have known that the WG is like this when there was no previous attempt to bring the two closer together lol. From his POV the WG has a ton of reasonable higher ups that are open to working with minorities and give them high ranking jobs within the government.

Oden decided to tweak for absolutely no reason even though he could've liberated Wano from Kaido 100% had he just teamed up with the old dude (Kaido admits to this).
