Luffy IMO doesn't kill any dreams, he sometimes even revives them in the antagonists he beat (i.e., makes them better). Buggy went on for the Grand Line after Luffy defeated him. Smoker too. Wapol went on to build his Wapometal empire and marry Kinderella. Crocodile restored his dream to become...

No, Oda simply did what he always does: Luffy beats the strongest and Zoro beats the 2nd strongest (yeah, you could say that he has beaten the 3rd strongest since BM was there, but I'd say that she's from another crew). It'll be like that until the end, Zoro (or any other character for that...

I'm not so sure. Kid, Law and Bege were already pirates 4 years before the current times (check below). If we consider Law's novel, he formed the Hearts Pirates around the age of 13 and first set sail around Luffy's age (~17 years old), around 7 years before the start of the story (Kuma would be...

Possibly. Blackbeard, Bege and Urouge are in their 40's already (Urouge is very close to 50!) and Oda puts them in the same generation. Chapter #664

IMO, he was probably in his 50's already (about ~10 years older than Roger and Garp). I'm on the team who thinks that Xebec is from an older generation (e.g.: Brook's generation, and he might've been the one who annihilated the Rumbar Pirates). He was probably at his 30's when he killed an...

It can't be Laugh Tale IMO, since Lodestar is "at the end of the Grand Line"... in my view, they must go to Lodestar first. My vote goes to Lodestar. I think that the final war will happen after the One Piece is found, so necessarily after Laugh Tale.

In general terms (nen mastery, battle experience, physical condition, etc.) and in their current (or latest, if they're dead) versions, I'd rank them like that: 1) Uvogin 2) Feitan 3) Phinks 4) Kite 5) Morel 6) Kurapika 7) Killua As I'm not sure, 4 and 5 are interchangeable. 6 and 7 too. 1 and...

Yeah, it was Loki after all. Not sure if he was Harald's first choice, but, on second thoughts, I do think that he would choose him one way or another, as Harald always respected Elbaf's traditions. However, I think that Loki will still end up being a pirate... he never wished to be the king...

Yeah, she had to fight Alpha before the timeskip, but she was 10 years old already. I meant growing up in poverty.

Good point, but I wouldn't trust it 100%. Oda recently retconned at least one past: Bonney. She apparently was supposed to have a poor upbringing (either as an orphan or as a slave probably), with tattered clothes and bruises as drawn in SBS Vol. 64, but we saw in Kuma's flashback that, besides...

Well, most of these things aren't really mysteries... - What does Ivankov know about Crocodile? (and no, it's not a crocomom theory) Yeah, Crocomom is more of a joke theory, but Croc could very well be a female and Iva changed his (her) gender in the past. I can't think of something more...

1. Which was better at their job as warlord? None of them was particularly good, but Mihawk was better than Doffy, no doubt about it. Doffy was working closely with one of the WG's strongest enemies (Kaido) and his main goal was to bring the world to a complete chaos, so he was undoubtedly more...

It was Hajrudin. It wouldn't be people like Saul, Dorry, Brogy, or others from the older generations, Harald wanted someone younger... and Hajrudin's dream is actually becoming the "King of the Giants". I don't think we'll get any more confirmation than this (see chapter #715)... Loki is also...

One Piece is a material treasure, Oda already confirmed it. It won't be something ethereal or emotional like the adventure, the friends we made along the way, etc.

The sea kings vary in both size and strength. The weaker ones can be beaten by East Blue pirates, but the stronger ones were able to easily stop Noah, while G3 post-skip Luffy had a lot of trouble with it. Now imagine an army with ALL the sea kings of the world... they're probably capable of...

Good post, I agree with you about Ochoku's standing in the world, I'm just not sure if he was "slightly" below the Yonko (however, engaging him in battle was probably a dangerous move that would lead to significant losses). It's certain that he wasn't as strong as the Yonko individually, but he...

This is Ochoku just before the God Valley Incident: Now there's him sometime after God Valley: We know that he wasn't in God Valley and Marlon couldn't seriously injure him, so who scarred Ochoku after God Valley? Was Ochoku defeated post God Valley and before the Rocky Port Incident? If...

I like to see every arc as a standalone part of the story, I don't think it's fair to downgrade them due to future events/retcons. Saul being alive, for example, had potential to make Robin's EL flashback lesser to some extent for me, but I like to remember how it was when I first read it. The...

EoS Jinbe we'll be probably the strongest fishman of all time, but we might see a stronger fishman in a flashback. Maybe Joy Boy could've been a fishman (or a wotan), since he had a strong tie with Fishman Island and the past Poseidon apparently. Well, there's even past Poseidon themselves (or...

Best: Water 7. It's the peak of One Piece story-wise IMO. The strawhats face their first major crisis with the departure of 2 crewmembers, then we have THE greatest villain reveal of the series (CP9). The follow-up (Enies Lobby) also had great story moments and probably the most intense battles...
