Speculations Will we cut away to the outside world soon?

[Shiroyru]

Didn’t Oda say that he wants to do frequent outside world updates during Elbaf? We’re already 30 chapters in and I don’t see how we could have a good chance to cut away any time soon. The Loki flashback will be at least a few chapters, and then after that the Imunko and HK situation needs to be addressed pretty immediately. It can’t be offscreened like the Seraphim were, so at minimum we can’t cut away until the HKs get pushed back at least temporarily. Imo Oda should have cut away before the Imunko stuff. We need updates on groups like CG and the Marines, which have been underdeveloped and need more focus before the final war

When did Oda say that?

Oda might not show any outside world stuff until Elbaf is over. Time perception here is different, there will most likely be a surprise mini-timeskip — could be days to weeks to even months. It’s a smart setup by Oda so that he can just reveal that a lot of shit is already going down.

Hopefully.

The whole Elbaf time skip thing is weird. How would time move slower in Elbaf, yet humans still age at the same rate in Elbaf and giants still age at the same rate outside of Elbaf?

It’s just their perception that’s messed up from my understanding. Gaban thought that a decade was just a few years. Time doesn’t really move any different.

Ok, but in that case a week in Elbaf would still be a week in the outside world. So a timeskip wouldn’t be possible

It messes with perception. We will be going out with the SHs as our POV, they might hear that it has already been weeks or so in the news.

When did Oda say that?

The Jump Festa message implies that we'll see events unfold outside of Elbaph.

 

[EmperorKinyagi]

I mean kinda obvious with Imu talking about pullling military force to the holy land

 

[GeneralP123]

I hope we cut to some other stuff, I don't really care about anything in Elbaf, maybe Scopper and possibly Loki.

 

[Shiroyru]

I mean kinda obvious with Imu talking about pullling military force to the holy land

Btw do Admiral fans still think Imu was talking about recalling the HKs, or do y’all finally accept that Imu was talking about recruiting the Giants as a new military power?

 

[Gordodrog]

I'm more interested how Zoro and Sanji deal with immortality. If Zoro can use advCoC to prevent the giants from regenerating, it would end the debate whether Zoro can coat his attack with CoC or not.

He was talking about both

 

[Shiroyru]

He was talking about both

Ok, then why didn’t he just immediately recall the HKs to deal with whatever’s going on in Marijoa, and then send them back to Elbaf later? The Giants would have to sail all the way to MJ anyways even if they were subdued

 

[Yoho]

I don't recall Oda saying that but I would like to cut away to Mariejose see whats happening over there right now

that one guy "shaking up the world" is 99% Dragon, btw.

 

[Shiroyru]

Oda’s being coy. “That one guy” is actually multiple characters

It’s the opposite. It’s the straw hats planning to train for a few weeks accidentally training for a year basically
