DERISHISHISHI!!!





As Kid and Killer were leaving One Piece in 1056, they mentioned wanting to find a "man marked by flames". In Chapter 1066, we have Shaka reveal Saul's survival, and see Saul covered in bandages, indicating he was badly burned on Ohara (makes sense).

The Giants are tied to and respect the Ancient History, as Saul and the Giants understood the value of Ohara's books. Since Ohara knew how to read Poneglyphs, it goes to say Vegapunk would. If Vegapunk got the information of Ohara, he would have a close relationship with Saul. Saul learning to read Poneglyphs in order to continue Ohara's legacy DEFINITELY sounds like something he'd do.

Saul is also, mind you, a "D": Jaguar D. Saul. He's also a peaceful man. Saul disagreed with the Marines and WG's violent treatment of the scholars of Ohara, and stated he disliked Elbaf's culture of violence.



Saul likes peace, and respects people who study Poneglyphs.

Shanks was about to leave.

Kid wants to meet "The Man Marked by Flames."

If Saul is the "Man Marked by Flames", I bet he will be the peacekeeper in this situation.

The Giants learning about Kid beating Big Mom will be important, as well, but, knowing Saul, I think he'll try to stop the fighting as soon as he learns about it.

Not sure why either would stop any fight. This is a fight for One Piece. The giants having any sort of triviality on being able to stop a fight like this makes little sense.
Shanks respects the Giants clearly.

If Saul personally asked Shanks not to fight, I think he'd consider it, especially since Saul is a D, like Roger and Luffy, and because he's at Elbaf.

But you are acting like Kid would also stop figthing or wouldnt get violent with Saul if thats who hes looking for. Shanks still wants his RPs. And theres also the pure fact that Shanks is asking the giants to defend Elbaf.

If Kid picks a fight with Shanks and a Giant alliance when Saul gives him an out and offers to help him with his Poneglyphs in exchange for beating Big Mom, I will never defend this fucker again, on any level.

Oda made it clear Kid has no chance in a fair fight here, and I just don't see Oda wrecking Kid after his Wano hype. He'll get beat up, sure, but he should get at least one feat in.

I have no hope Oda actually shows us this fight. He's saving Shanks for later and using Kid to hype up Shanks/be a connector to Elbaf for the Straw Hats.

Someone with Burns is very common in a World of Pirates
Describing Someone by their Burns is like saying "Let's look for Man with a Scar on his Face"
That's not enough detail to Highlight or Distinguish Someone from Others
We also seen multiple Characters with Burns, such as Sabo, Aokiji & even Luffy himself

Based on this, i believe that a "Fire-Shaped Scar" makes more Sense
So the real question should be, why would Someone bother to make a Scar look like a Flame?

Oda already showed us an example of that when Fisher Tiger hid Celestial Dragon's Brand by making it look like a Sun instead.
And it is also a Burn Scar since they use Branding Iron which is Very Hot
(This explains why Oda used Phrasing that can refer to both Fire-Shape Scar & Burns)

So it's highly possible that Someone was a Slave & after his Escape, He changed his Slave Brand Mark into a Flame-Shaped One.
Conveniently, there is indeed a Major Character who Hates Celestial Dragons & his Preferred Symbol is a Flame
It's none other than Rocks D. Xebec! (You can check his Flag which is a Flaming Skull)

Xebec is currently living with Elbaf Royalty (Under Different Identity)
Everyone thought that Xebec's Goal of becoming World Ruler is to sit on Empty Throne,
But i believe it was actually to replace Elbaf's God of War

So if Kid is somehow associated with Him (And Most Probably came to Elbaf to meet him)
Then Xebec might also need Kid & wants him to Survive
This is why Xebec might somehow Convince Elbaf's God of War to save Kid

As Dorry & Brogy said, when there is a Dispute between Giants, they must fight to the Death, however the Winner will be decided by
God of War (Who they believe have a Fate-Related Powers). So once Shanks & Kid start Fighting, God of War will intervene & somehow force Red-Hair Pirates to retreat (Giving Kid his W)

So even though the Dispute needs to be between Giants, Xebec (As Servant of Royal Family), will convince Ruler to Help Kid.
And as i'v said multiple times, i'm 200% Certain Elbaf Kingdom has "Book of Fate" & that will be used to End this Fight.
