Character DiscussionIf Scopper Gaban is Really "The Man marked by Flames" where's his black ship and how does he cause whirlpools to prevent people from catchin up to him
Cause dragon is an active revolutionary leader
he has neither the time nor the incognito rep for that
Dragon already HAS a ship that he is assocaited with
Why does the person who has the final Road Poneglyph have to be introduced this arc? If they really are on a ship somewhere it would make more sense for the Straw Hats to meet/encounter said person on the sea.
have you ever seen strawhat get something on the sea ?
after elbaf , 2 island will be left which one if them is laughtale.
all roger pirates gave important thing to crew .
rayleight coating ship
crocus log pose
gaban surely will give important thing , probably poneglyyph.
If Scopper Gaban really is "the Man Marked by Flames"; I Have Two questions I feel the need to be explained;
1. Where's this Fabled Black Ship he SUPPOSEDLY carries the final road poneglyph on?!
and
2. How does he cause Whirlpools to keep other pirates or anyone else away from his Ship AND the Final of 4 Road Poneglyphs. . . If Scopper really IS The mysterious Man marked by Flames?!
I think he is the man marked by flame. Come to think of it, the strawhats have never beaten anyone to get the three Road Poneglyphs. The wano RP is not in possessed by Kaido, it was in the same place ever since it was there in the underground chamber. They found it because to Sukiyaki revealed it to Robin. The defeat of Kaido led to it happened. So my guess is Robin won't go find the RP unless Loki/Shamlock is defeated.
2. The ship he has been using is the Oro Jackson, which was left under his protection.
3. The whirlpools are part of some kind of mechanism (perhaps obtained on Lodestar) required to reach Raftel, which may or may not have something to do with Seastones. Franky and/or Jinbe may play important roles in using it with the Sunny.
This one is a bit of a stretch:
4. Gaban has periodically left Elbaph in search of something the Roger Pirates never managed to find or lost at sea.
Maybe, but the way the man marked by flames is described is pretty ominous. A pitch black evil-looking ship, a dude creating whirlpools that sink anyone that gets near, being a possible worker for the government... it just screams 'bad guy' to me.
Am I the only one who thinks his introduction will perfectly highlight that of a man with burned scars ?
like we are not going to meet a random ass character who just happen to be MWBS ( man with burned scars ) ,
We are first going to see his black ship along with the ability to create whirlpools , just as described by Blackbeard pirates .
I think we have alrdy gotten gabban’s introduction with him being a legendary roger pirate but nothing abt him having the last ponygelph .
Imo when we see MWBS , we will def know this is the guy bb pirates talked abt .

The Oro Jackson will be destroyed by Shamrock or Loki.
It will show up rebuilt in the final war, and the surviving members of the Rogers Pirates will be aboard, but they won't take up much panel time during that war.
To be fair it’s hard to tell we know Kidd was trying to enter Elbaf there is already a clue the flame dude is from there .
I do think it’s scooper or Saul both have scars and both the characters have motives to protect final one . However Oda can completely bring new character out of blue like Foxxy to thrown the readers .

I don't mind Gaban being the man marked by flames, but I really don't want him to be a villain either. He's too chad for that. Plus I really wanna see Xebec, Shiki or Hanafuda in the mix.
Could be it was long shot . I believe he can still be new character and if he is travelling in black ship and creating whirlpool it seems like he is protecting the final one .
I don’t think it’s world govt and I am pretty sure Imu would safe guard it with him and it’s impossible unless you go through Gorosei and Im.
If comes down to few people like Rocks pirates/Rogers Pirates who are protecting it from someone like Kaido/Big Mom/ Blackbeard to not get there hands and this person is powerful man in his own right as well .
Time will tell. I do not like the idea of it being Gaban. The Straw Hats need to work for at least one of the Poneglyphs. It would also feel more real if some of the other key players had an opportunity to get it before the Straw Hats just handed the last one. It doesn't make for much of a race if they are the only ones with Zou and this one from Gaban. It cheapens the accomplishment and kills everyone else's ability to reach Laughtale.

They basically drew straws and Kidd picked Elbaph by chance. Had he gone to Egghead you guys would be saying the man marked by flames was there. You'd be saying it was Vegapunk because of the mother flame.
Which is why I hope Gabban's not the man marked by flames, because all signs seem to point Hinokizu towards being the penultimate villain/obstacle before they face Blackbeard or venture to the final stretch to Laugh Tale. Plus, everything about this guy screams ominous, something none of the Roger pirates have been so far, Douglas Bullet being the exception but he hasn't been mentioned in the manga or the novels yet.
