Those 5 will be the most prevalent im guessing and or he wants to keep the mystery open for the rest. Im sure hype will get its due once the rest start to show up.
My only problem with Yamato is that she's from the new world and the prophecy specifies that those figures will come into the NW.
The rest is fine though honestly.
Though im doubtful BM will stay much if at all and will go somewhere else, since the prophecy singles out beating Kaido and no one else.
Dope avy btw.
Seems like it, the prophecy singles out Kaido and since in the panning shot we see the 5 against Kaido and BM( half of which avoided calamities and other fighters to get to him) and that i believe BM will go somewhere else(possible marine intervention or something else) then to be honest its Kaido that prophecy specifies and everyone of them were dodging all fights to get to him.
The 9 scabbards got wrecked, it was a red herring.
Oden when mentioning the figures and saying that they will be the ones to beat him had this
I specifically put that image in my opening post because i expected an answer such as yours,actually i covered everything in it.
There are 7 cubes+ Momo and Hiyori( who can metaphorically represent 2 of the figures) so thats 9 in total, and then you have Toki talking about the same thing. That 9 shadows will bring about dawn.
The scabbards did no such thing.
And as we see 5 of the figures being confirmed to be the novas, it stands to reason to guess that maybe there remaining 4 will have to come up as well down the line, what do you think?
''You are like the moon who knows not of the dawn'' can be interpreted as her addressing Wano and its populace, and the wish will be when nine shadows ''woven together through 20 years of moonlit nights''(the prophecy)are cast(IE appearing), those shadows will show the moon(wano) the radiance of dawn(bringing about its liberation).
Its in perfect accordance with Oden's prophecy, and they are one and the same.
