One Piece Chapter 1169: I HAVE TO DIE NOW!

[D. Plant]

->IIirc an editor wanted Oda to make Shanks lose his arm to make it more dramatic. The tattoos stuff is 1000% a retcon

The tattoos definitely influence the person, I don't see the retcon here. Shanks can just leave it there and never care about it, that's fine. because of proximity. But the editor spicing things up is not part of Oda ideas.

flashback has been going on long enough... get it over with, loki, kill your stupid father already

Lol, 3-4 more chapters at least. I expect to see part of Loki's pirating and capture.

Like the chap

only thing is now we are second guessing the whole HK characters, are they all evil ? Some goods some bads ? All okay but turned evil by Imu ? Where does their personlaities stop and where does Imu orders start ?

makes tte whole thing a bit confusing

I think as soon as they start defying Imu's order he starts overwriting their personalities

flashback will be followed by hajrudin reacting to loki's explanation for killing harald, so it should end with loki killng harald.

I expect Imu imposes certain conditions regardless of ranks.
- Gunko memory suppressed while she was just shallow covenant.
- Shamrock acting shock while Gunko creates a abyss portal, probably he couldn't create it due to his brother is a traitor and they both look identical.

Why would he need restrictions on 2nd seal when he can just turn them evil and they listen to everything

Maybe Imu fear Shanks impersonating Shamrock to trick people within the WG.

 

[MonochromeYoru]

If it was that easy, why wasn't he cutting his arm of?


If there isn't more behind it, feels like a retcon.

Cause Lor D Coast's advanced superior acoc was the only think that could cut off a hand that was marked by imu

Insane Lor D Coast feat tbh

I think it’s specifically a sea beast eating Shanks arm that severed the connection, not it just being cut off.

The different types of covenants are named after the depths of the seas, Shirahoshi/Poseidon is in control of Sea Kings, DF powers are weakened by it etc.

 

[Moewu]

I wonder if Imu can take control of you, if you are in a different Dimension. Like, for example, inside Brulees Mirror World, or Bluenos Door Dimension.


Or even on the Moon.

That's not bad reasoning.. maybe ya

Nvm I just misread the dialogue, Shamrock can create portal.

Now this is peak

connection

It is just a figure, the pact is on their soul. Unfortunately by being too close to him, Imu will control him again

 

[nik87]

Is Ragnir a Poneglyph?

@BOCCHI This guy is Surtr...

Can we already make threads in the theory sub or is there a waiting period for when chapters are out?
