Speculations Egghead Free For All Battle Royale
- Thread starter roronoa_fan

People complain that everything is about fighting and powerscaling, but when we make a different thread they ignore it.
Anyway, after the last chapters I believe that Oda was referring to Shanks and Teach, however, so far, we do not know if they will appear in Egg Head, but as Teach's ship appeared arriving on the island and we also have an indication that Shanks is hunting him the chances are considerable.
We know there's going to be something big in Egg Head, does anyone want to share what's on their minds right now?

To add to your ideas, I really want to see Shiryu and Devon WREAK havoc on Egghead, with Lafitte present even too. We got someone who can turn invisible, one who can transform into seemingly anybody and maybe use their powers potentially too and a guy who can hypnotise others and stealth around undetected somehow anyway too.
Now imagine the sheer amount of chaos they could cause at Egghead, when there's already complete anarchy going on, thanks to York's stupidity and betrayal, CP0 and the SHs being there and Saturn and Kizaru FINALLY arriving whenever the hell they do?
What if Devon turns into Saturn and can override the Seraphims to Blackbeards side somehow? Shiryu can slip through Egghead undetected with his invis and Lafitte probs can too? Devon can disguise as a Punk at least too? Stella even?
Some people reckon Kuzan will show up but I think hes gonna be be at Beehive, where he will inevitable encounter Garp trying to rescue Koby AND Kuzans life deft that he owes Garp, where Garp saved his life at least once will finally be revealed and come into play. Its gonna be an amazing setup narratively if Oda goes for it. Also harkens back to Water 7 with Aokiji/Kuzan there along with Garp ofc and also Kuzans remorse during Film Z for Zephyr and losing him too...
Garp is gonna have some VERY interesting words for Kuzan if hes truly betrayed the Marines and WG and this isnt some undercover spy operation for them.
Blackbeard will want revenge on Garp for Xebec too as an inheritor of his will and whatever else BB has to do with Xebec too, that we dont know about yet.
Last chapter with the Marines preparing to set sail, all those Vice Admirals and such, it was similar to how Marineford was setup in the manga before it happened too. Major food for thought there too. Egghead might become a modern day Gods Valley type scenario?

I think we are already in a battle royal: Think about the many mini clashes we had already. They were not big - but they still count as fights. And now with Saturn and Kizaru coming (and a party from BBPs) there should be enough fighing going on soon.
I do not know if the BB-ship actually means that BB himself is arriving there. We do know that Garp is after him. And I think Oda could focus on this battle first, before he lets the man clash with Luffy. If Garp gets beaten or even killed, than Luffy will loose one of the last people from his childhood, that he calls family. That means in return that with killing/injuring Garp, Luffy will have a much deeper reason for wanting to defeat BB. It could also make BB slide more into the deep antagonistic side.
In another post a while ago, I had written that I think Egghead will actually be a Marineford 2.0 .
Because if Kizaru arrives, we need to consider this line from him:
“Guts alone aren’t enough, Straw hat Luffy. It takes more than effort to save someone. You’ve got to have power.” That line was from Kizaru directed at Luffy during the Marineford war. And it is the most important line that ingrained into Luffy’s brain and is still echoing now into the future and into Egghead arc.
To clarify the situation back then: The moment that Luffy had almost reached Ace, his brother, he had been attacked first by vice admiral Momonga and then by vice admiral Dalmatian, before their superior admiral Kizaru stood before Luffy, blocking his way towards Ace and kicking Luffy away.
Important to notice is that the attacks from all three can be seen as representive strength of the marine altogether. Back then Kizaru (and Dalamtian and Momonga) was most importantly reflecting the might of the marine and the WG.
And if we are heading on to the point in time shortly after the incident at the Marine ford, we see Luffy devastated with the death of his brother. He is blaming himself for not being strong enough. Because he is still not over the defeat and his inability/weakness from back then. He could not save Ace, nor could he save his crew from Kuma and Kizaru/Sentoumaru on Sabaody.
Now however, he is getting again the chance to proof that he has gotten stronger and is in fact able to save his friends/Vegapunk as Kizaru draws nearer with the same military might behind him.
And just when you think it could not become stranger: We also have some brother-like figures currently on Egghead: Shaka can technically be seen as an almost exact copy of Lucci (Look at the body posture, eloquent speech, strategical thinking, both are ready to make sacrafices for their goals, Names: Shaka - Buddha [Representing "Good"] and Lucci - Lucifer [representing "Evil"])
Also, the "that person against that person" from Oda was worded as if the match would be some kind of big surprise for us - as if we as reader would not ever have thought of a fight like this. This means that we will probably have two people fighting, who we would not have ever belived to be fighting against. Also, this fight has a backstory, as Oda had said. So seeing that the room a backstory needs is probably going to be a little much for a side-plot, that battle that he talks about will happen on Egghead most probably. Now think of two persons, who are either currently on Egghead or heading there, who you would not ever have dreamed of fighting against each other.
I have my own inklings as to who it is, seeing as there are already hints present.

Like you said that vs that person could be BB vs Shanks. All that depends if BB on that ship but we should also remember that Egghead incident is happening the following day.
So there is a chance he could get there even if he is not here yet. Because i think Winter island or Elbaf are not that far away from Egghead.
If we get anything close to Marine Ford, i think someone major is going die here. There are few possibilities who that can be. I think Shanks and Garp are my main if they will be present in this battle royale.
We could also finally see Dragon&Revos arriving at end. There is good chance that happen and i believe, he will be the reason SHP escape or get saved.
I'm looking forward, wasnt that hype for a battle since Marine Ford.
ODA IS COOKING SOMETHING AND WE FANS ARE FOR THE RIDE
