Chapter Discussion Corrupt Countries and The WG's duty

[Fujishiro]

I find it interesting how Tsuru was speaking so casually about the thousands of deaths that happen due to starvation in Pepe kingdom. CG may have been the reason that led to T-Bones death but they certainly were not the deciding factor. This chapter truly highlights how citizens accross the world are suffering under the heels of corrupt monarchies and governments that are more concerned about their own well being rather then their citizens, doesnt help that all kingdoms are heavily taxed by the WG and you will have cases of extreme poverty and starvation multiplying. I feel like this is Oda setting us up for more revolutionary relevance from now on as we are approaching the endgame.

T-Bone's death is only the begining imo. Things are about to get nasty.

Thoughts?

Pepe kingdom

 

[Herrera95]

Oda is setting up a World of Chaos to be the scenario of Final War.

Just like he made Onigashima a mess. WCI, Dressrosa, Marineford etc.

Everything has to be a mess for Oda since Alabasta. I guess only not organized "war" from East Blue was Baratie.

Well all of those messes are a symptom of the cancerous tumor that is the WG. Its been there the whole time.

 

[Buusatan94]

If they want to get rid of their problems of poverty and hunger, they are definitively going to make things only worse by taking on marines, especially if they are truly heroic and kind ones such as beloved T-Bone.
Trying to get money from pirates, and earning the anger of the World Government can only aggravate their situation.

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

Anyway, but yeah, things bout to get hectic real quick. Buggy literally just sets up "The Purge" in One Piece world.

800 years of WG and just now people realize that and start a revolution? I'm not buying it.

You cant expect people that are literally starving to death not to be desperate, at that point finding any way to survive trumps everything else.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

I'd say you're dead on the money with this

Really curious to see where Oda goes with this!

Who says there havent been revolutionary forces in past centuries? WG is known for erasing things that might make them look bad.

Really curious to see where Oda goes with this!

Its not exactly a coincidence for me that the chapter we see the desperate state that some countries are in that we get revos as well.

Revos are about to step it up.

 

[SakazOuki]

Hopefully Sakazuki turns Pepe kingdom to dust

This way he avenges his secretary T Bone, protects marine lives, ends the starvation and incites Dragon to make a move

I see what you did there , truly a man of the people!

Until the real nightmare arrives, things are going to get only uglier for them soon.

This or Fujitora's hypocrite ass wanting warlords to be done so bad and he sips tea on Mariejois with thousands of slaves and doesn't even talk about it.

Leave Issho out of this smh.

 

[Seth]

Leave Issho out of this smh.

Wish I could although this thread is perfect to point out his hypocrisy too.

I think overall fandom expects too much from Oda.

All this "Uh oh Oda's message thru his manga about how cruel world is".

Then he has genocider fighting a teenager and saying: "HEHHE I HAVE FUN U TOO?".

We could throw a series of threads on this.

Not counting how said teenager have fun with said genocider too, and frequently associates himself with some of the worst scum and freed many criminals from Impel Down.

This why cross guild is brilliant
Even civilians can target marines

Its making me mad at the state of that world if anything. Ive seen starvation in real life and this chapter really hit me where it hurts.

 

[JayKitetsu]

Yeah Oda's really highlighting the corruption of the WG since we're in the end game and he wants to emphasize how important the Revos will be. CG's influence is essentially adding fuel to the fire since citizens don't really have any other choice. If left unchecked the WG will crumble before the Revos will even need to do anything so I can see a clash coming soon between the two factions, not to mention the Revos are gaining allies too. The Revos and CG have the WG's back against the wall so it'll be interesting to see where this goes
