Current Events Everyone has forgotten that, in exchange for being freed from his chains, Loki was supposed to reveal Shanks's current location

[Juanpiz]

Maybe Shanks is waiting for Luffy in Lodestar,or wants to fight Blackbeard together with Luffy

Well he has some Knowledge from being a roger
Pirate

 

[MUUGEN]

Shanks will Likely come end of the arc lol.

By that time Luffy/Zoro/Sanji will get their respective upgrades surpassing Shanks crew.

lol they still wont be anywhere near RHP

 

[MUUGEN]

i would think having invaders coming to kidnap all the children, entirety of elbaph trying to save them and then having to face imu all supersedes knowning Shanks' location lol

It’s literally the central thread of the Elbaf plot the entire arc hinges on it: going to the castle to get the key, freeing Loki from his chains, and having him reveal Shanks's current location.

He’ll likely reveal it at the very end of the arc, once the fighting is over.

its literally not, the HK are that was established well before Luffy even came in contact with Loki.....

Nobody forgot


this is how Oda will likely show how and why shanks captured Loki and what Loki was doing as a pirate.

It will also reveal to as what’s going on around the world after Imu gets defeated

Yes, at the end of the arc, there will be a mini-flashback narrated by Loki that includes all of that.

like the continuation of the first flashback, which ended just as Loki was setting out to sea with the rest of the surviving soldiers

It’s going to be very strange to see this

how the world will change after the defeat of the King of the World, and what will become of the government, it’s almost impossible to predict the turn things will take.

Imus not gonna get killed or usurped as king of the world but I think it’s just gonna be his “outside of Pangea castle form” that’s gets defeated

Imu realizes he needs to hurry speeding up the final war and amps himself up with the mother flame

 

[CoC: Color of Clowns]

Shanks is showing up soon. Wouldn't be surprised if Shamrock contacted him to let Shanks know Elbaph was being attack, either, since it seems Shamrock was fond of Harald, and Shamrock's suggestion to make the kidnapping of the children a game is what allowed the Giants and Straw Hats to rescue the kids to begin with.

prolly has a vivre card of shank

shank and loki are allies. the only reason shank beat and chained loki was cause loki was tryna go solo against wg. he woulda gotten folded by imu.

Not just Imu but the gorosei,holy knights,admirals and navy


that’s too much of a gauntlet to run

Loki must’ve realized this and laid low for 6 years until shanks eventually stopped him

No, you're wrong; if you re-read the arc, you'll see that's not the case, they arrived later.

The meeting between Loki and Luffy in the underworld takes place in Chapter 1130, right at the start of the arc.

The arrival of the Holy Knights via the abyss marked on the castle floor happens in Chapter 1134.

 

[ShinichiMugi]

By the way Shanks is too strong as an ally for Luffy so there is the possibility he will die before the final battle
