As we saw in the latest chapter (#1136), Jarul revealed that the world has been destroyed twice before the current times and Nika was involved both times. We also see that the Elbaf's Nika seems to be completely different from the Joy Boy's silhouette we saw back in Vegapunk's transmission...

I don't think he would... he barely accepted Luffy btw. Yeah, they don't hate each other but Sanji also don't think Zoro is someone worthy of being his captain (and vice-versa), it's simple as that.

They would probably reunite, but most certainly in the original intended time (3 days). They obviously wouldn't be strong enough enough to make it in the New World, so they would need a bit of luck to strive there. Plus, there could be probably a split between them, as Sanji would never accept...

I didn't skip Skypiea but I watched it through one eye the first time (yeah, I binge-watched the anime first and just went to the manga after reaching the most recent episode). I was still a teen back then and I was eager to catch up to the most recent arc at the time, the overly-hyped...

It's possible to watch One Piece and other anime for free (and 100% legal) in Crunchyroll (up to full hd, at least in the most recent episodes), although you'll have to see a lot of ads (but, depending on your country, the subscription costs are really fair).

I do believe that Whitebeard intended to nurture Ace for him to become the Pirate King one day, but I don't think that he was already stronger than Marco, otherwise Marco would never go after Blackbeard during the timeskip (wouldn't make sense to face someone MUCH stronger than him, since BB was...

Characters get more stronger from actual fights than years of training. He might defeat someone strong and have a zenkai boost to admiral level soon.

Fair enough, but Marco was the leader of the WB Pirates after WB himself died, it's clearly stated in the manga... no one else can be the first mate besides Marco. In your opening post you didn't make clear if being an apprentice or not is something to take into consideration when you...

It is the textbook definition of first mate: the second most important officer on a ship (Cambridge Dictionary) / the officer on a ship who is most important after the captain (Merriam-Webster Dictionary) / an officer second in command to the captain (Collins Dictionary) / an officer who has the...

I do remember Whitey Bay saying that, but not the others. Maybe they did boss him around because they were slightly older? WB simply didn't had a first mate then (probably), it was more like a family to him than a pirate crew. In the same page that Whitey Bay reproves Marco, WB tells everyone...

Yeah, we have at least one of them who had a crewmate before: Linlin. However, it doesn't mean that the Big Mom Pirates started before she joined Rocks (in most of her childhood and teen years, it looked like she was solo, with Streusen just managing things maybe). We also know that Kaido...

When did this happen? Anyways, Marco was the leader of the WB Pirates after his captain died, so he was obviously the first mate. The manga leaves no doubt.

Not sure if you read any of my post, but check out the page I posted on "Spoiler: Chapter 962", it specifically says that the Rocks remnants started recruiting 33 years ago. Big Mom was already a pirate alongside Streusen even before joining Rocks (and even had a lot of her children already)...

WB's first mate was Marco and he was probably the first to join too. We know for sure that WB started recruiting crewmembers 33 years before the current times (Marco was 12 years old at the time). Now you could ask, how do we know that his first crewmate was Marco? Well, we don't really know...

I don't know what you mean. You say in terms of power/status in his fictional world? If you're referring to this, then I agree with you. Buggy, for example, IS an overarching character and is more important to the story than Kaido/BM, but he's far weaker than them. (Not sure what Oda has in the...

Well, yeah... that's the main topic of this thread (Q.: Why Kaido/BM don't have interactions with the great powers? A.: They are filler characters who have no importance to the story). Blackbeard is an overarching character and is relevant to the main plot; Shanks is an overarching character and...

They are obviously not filler since they appeared in the manga, but the characters have no importance in the story, that's what I meant. In addition, Blackbeard was also planned early and Oda initially wanted to make him ridiculously strong. In his early concept, he wouldn't be able to feel hot...

It's in the 1999 Jump cover I posted above (Weekly Shonen Jump #1544 - No. 24, 1999 Issue). It's a teaser for the 4 villains of the Grand Line. (Not sure if they were planned to be the final villains, but they would be among the greatest antagonists.) Edit: It's actually Weekly Shonen Jump...

It's true, but they would be probably some of the Shichibukai (or maybe other kinds of characters, as it's been hinted that a warrior from Elbaf and a Wano samurai would be among the Yonko), not the Yonko we have today. I never saw even a glimpse of them in Oda's old sketches, but many of the...
