Oh, gosh. Well, I hope you all have some time to kill. *cracks knuckles* If you thought I was verbose BEFORE, well then...
I'm going to try to keep this to things I actually think Oda would give an answer to. So that means, no "What is the One Piece" or "What happened during the Void Century?" kind of questions. I'm going to try to keep this to questions that probably won't be answered in the main story. But, might still get us some interesting answers.
I might also give a little "commentary" about my questions, explaining why I think these would be good questions to ask.
Why was Vegapunk so interested in dragons? Between cloning a dragon on Punk Hazard, trying to replicate the Dragon Devil Fruit, and having a holographic dragon-like "Space Monster" on Egghead, the guy seemed like a big fan!
-(I feel like this question is JUST leading enough that we might at least get an interesting hint at a future plot point. It might hit too close to something Oda might reveal in the future, but it'd be interesting to see. )
Who were the pirates who attacked the Oykot Kingdom, where Bellmere found Nami and Nojiko? What did the pirates want there?
What was the name of the person who killed Brook?
-(We might actually be getting a answer to this fairly soon. Though, I'm not sure if we'll JUST cover Brook's time with Gunko, or if we'll get a whole expanded Brook flashback.)
How did Zoro get his scar?
-(Again, this is getting pretty close to something Oda might reveal down the line. But, maybe we could get confimation about it just being a training wound or something more from Oda. Even if we don't get a clear answer, a non-answer would be interesting. Because that would mean it IS something important and not just there to look cool.)
Is the Age of Heaven a real time period in this world, or was it just something Robin made up on the spot to trick Crocodile in Alabasta?
Who took out the cameras on Egghead?
-(This is probably just S-Snake. But, it's bugged me long enough, that it'd be nice to just get some closure on this "mystery" that might just be a "reading comprehension" problem. )
What started the war between the Long-Arm Tribe and the Long-Leg Tribe?
So...how DO objects "eat" Devil Fruits? None of the Vegapunks ever explained that to us like you promised!
Can you tell us a little more about Blackbeard's attack on Drum Island? What was he doing on Drum Island in the first place? Is that where he recruited Doc Q?
Can you give us a clearer order of events for what happened to Ginny at Mariejois? Did she get discarded by her "husband" THEN get experimented on by Saturn THEN contract Sapphire Scale? Or did she contract Sapphire Scale THEN get discarded by her "husband" THEN get experiment on by Saturn? It's a little confusing what happened in what order, at the moment. Maybe it's just a "reading comprehension" problem on my part?
-(This will either redeem Saturn or completely destroy his character. But, whatever the answer is, it'd probably be interesting. And, given the subject matter, I doubt Oda will ever be able to give us a full flashback of these events. So, a SBS answer would be perfect.)
Can you tell us what kind of adventures Capone Bege and the Fire Tank Pirates had on that weird upside-down island when they first entered the Grand Line? What was the name of that island, anyway? How about Urouge's adventures on Raijin Island? Did the other Supernova's have any weird adventures on memorable islands when they first entered the Grand Line?
Does Commander-in-Chief Kong have a Devil Fruit? We don't really know much about this guy.
Why do some Zoan Awakenings have white ribbons around them and others have black ribbons?
-(This is VERY unlikely to actually get answered. But, it's a fine enough detail question, that we might at least get a hint about what's going on.)
Can we just get a quick list of what Rio Poneglyphs Robin has found and where? By my count, Robin should have access to 8 out of the 9, but I'm not sure if I'm counting right. The Road Poneglyphs are pretty obvious, but it's a little hard to tell what's a Rio Poneglyph and what's not. Vegapunk found a Poneglyph. But, I 'm not sure if that was a Rio Poneglyph or not. And I'm not sure if Robin ever read about it on Vegapunks computers during the "missing night" or if she asked Lilith about it.
Luffy is immune to electrical attacks. But, we've learned that Luffy doesn't actually have the "rubber" fruit, he has the Nika Fruit. So, can Luffy be immune to ANY attack, if he BELIEVES he's immune to it? Is that how that works?
The bodies of the former Rocks Pirates seemed to end up on Thriller Bark, where Moria used them as his zombies. What were these guy's names back when they were alive?
What's the name of the guy who asked Roger where the One Piece was hidden during his execution? Did he ever go out and try to find it?
Can Luffy use the Voice of All Things to listen to poop? There is bacteria in poop, after all.
-(...What? They can't ALL be serious! Plus, this is probably the one Oda would be the MOST likely to answer!)
What does SAD and SMILE stand for? They seem to be acronyms, but what do they actually mean?
What does SWORD stand for? What does the acronym actually mean? Who came up with the acronym for this secret group, anyway? How was this clandestine group originally formed?
We’ve seen artwork of Nika using a spear and different artwork of Nika wielding a sword. Are these two different “incarnations” of Nika, or does Nika just use multiple different weapons? Do these weapons have names?
Does Sora (Sanji’s mom) have any relation to Sora (The Warrior of the Sea manga character)? It’s just strange they have the same name.
We’ve seen from Aokiji creating a ice-bridge on Long Ring Long Land that Devil Fruit powers can affect water over a long period of time. So, why does water affect Devil Fruit users the way it does, but seemingly has no resistance to the effects of the powers themselves? Why do Devil Fruit Users get weak in water, but the water doesn’t seem to nullify the affects of those same Devil Fruits?
-(This is a confusing question, and I admit that.)
How do the Abyss Pentagrams work? Can you use them to teleport anywhere in the world, or do you need a pre-existing Abyss Mark already at your desired location to be able to teleport somewhere? Do the Gorosei and the God’s Knights both have the same restrictions using the Abyss, or can the Gorosei do certain things the God’s Knights can’t or vice versa?
-(This might be too "new" for Oda to answer yet. But, I could see some of the finer "rules" not being explained outside of a SBS.)
The God's Knights and Gorosei are using a lot of pentagrams and "magical" symbols to make their Abyss powers work. But, it's not the first time we've seen a character use symbol-like "magic" before in this world before. Miss Goldenweek's Color Trap seem to me to be as a similar power as the Abyss Marks. They both use symbols to cause different affects. The same can be said of the Marys from the Beast Pirates. They draw a symbol on paper, and they gain far-sight powers. So, are Miss Goldenweek's Color Trap, the Marys all-seeing eye paper charms, and the Abyss Marks part of the same overarching "power system"? Is there a connection between these powers? Are they different versions of the same power?
What are the names of the Marines who executed Gol D Roger?
Gin and Don Krieg are on Hachinosu! Can you tell about what adventures they’ve been up to since the last time we saw them?
Do Kaido and Yamato have Ancient Giant blood in them like King Harald and Loki do? Does that mean that "Oni" are the same thing as the "Ancient Giants" or are they slightly different?
King Harald and Kaido share a certain family resemblance, are they related?
Is there a difference between the “Black Straight Horned” Ancient Giants like Harald and Loki and the “White Curved Horned” Ancient Giants like Oars and Oars Jr? Are they just different family lines, or are they different "subspecies"? Are there any other different types of horns you could see on a Ancient Giant, or is it just these two?
Could you draw Shakky once she’s “crossed the Obaa-san line” and Rayleigh’s reaction to her new look? I mean, even the most beautiful women eventually shrink down to cute grandmas eventually, in this world.
-(Again, they can't ALL be seirous.)
You’ve mentioned before that you didn’t want to give Shiki the Float-Float Fruit…but didn’t you WRITE the Strong World movie? Couldn’t you have…just wrote a different story, if you didn’t want to do that? How did that work? Was the "floating island" theme decided upon before you even got there, or were you outvoted, or what?
-(I doubt Oda would spill the tea on this. But, given different interviews, it does strike me as a bit contradictory. There's a story behind this, even if we'll probably never hear it.)
Do all Devil Fruits have some sort of will of their own, or just Zoans? Do Zoans just have the strongest wills, or do none of the other types of Devil Fruits have any “will” of their own at all?
Do all the animal “Gods” on Elbpah have Devil Fruits? If so, what Devil Fruit did the "Ear God" rabbit that Luffy ate have?
The Gorosei seem to have telepathy with each other. Do they ever use that ability for mundane things? Like, if one's in the kitchen, and another Gorosei wants them to bring them back a drink, or something? Do the Gorosei hang out with each other after work, or do they not socialize with each other and just keep things professional? I wanna know more about the everyday lives of the Gorosei!
-(Tell me you haven't wondered the same thing.)
Who cleans the Imu's toilet? Do the Gorosei and God's Knights take turns?
-(Bold of me to assume that Imu poops, I know.)
We know about two different honorifics that Celestial Dragons use. “Sei” and “Gu”. Are these male/female honorifics, old/young honorifics, or something else entirely?
-(I just want official clarification on this.)
Did Vegapunk base his Satellites’ designs on people he already knew? Some of them look a bit like Bonney.
Did Shank’s Haki actually get stronger BECAUSE he lost his arm? Did his body compensate for the lost arm by awakening greater Haki within him? Are we working under "Star Wars" rules?
How's Enel doing living up on the Moon? Has he been having any new Moon-adventures you'd like to tell us about? Did he ever meet a Moon-Maiden and settle down? Has he eaten any good Moon-foods?
Koby got quite the glow up during the time skip. He's trained hard and it's paid off. What would the Usopp Pirates from Syrup Village look like if they trained that hard for the last two years?
Can klabautermann like the one from the Going Merry create Devil Fruits with their dreams and desires, the way that humans can? What about Big Mom's Homies, can they dream new Devil Fruits into this world?
-(This is a weird, random thought, but I find it interesting. What measure a non-human?)
Lulusia was ruled over by vampires, how did that come to happen?
How many swords does Tashigi have in her collection at this point? Any really rare or famous ones that we haven't seen before?
If Franky met Laboon, what upgrades would he give to him? I wanna see Laboon decked out, Franky-Shogun-style!
-(Pimp my whale!)
Is there a difference between the Skypeian “Rain God” and the Elbaph mural’s “Sea God”? Are these different names for the same god? Or are they actually two different gods entirely?
The Mural in Chapter 1138 mentioned a Sun, Sea, Earth, and Forest God. So, we have fire, water, wood, and earth. One of the five elements seems to be missing: metal or gold. Is there a missing fifth God? And could Sengoku’s Golden Buddha Fruit have some connection to it?
Is the Treasure of Hachinosu the same thing as Captain John’s treasure? Are they the same item, or are they two separate items?
Who were Vegapunk’s teachers? Did he have someone who inspired him to love learning?
Does Nami still have Big Mom’s Vivre Card that she got from Lola?
We saw some frozen Giants back on Punk Hazard. What was Vegapunk using them for? What was his experiment with those frozen giants meant to accomplish?
What was Saturn’s experiments on Ginny supposed to achieve? What was he trying to do?
What would happen if Luffy ate one of Chopper’s rumble balls?
If there was a Gorosei representing Nibiru, the mysterious planet X, what would they look like?
Are there any ruins famous amongst Fishmen and Merfolk at the bottom of the sea? Any tourist traps that have popped up under there, for adventurous Fishmen to travel to on family vacations?
A lot of the crew have hats, but not all of them. What kind of hats would the Strawhats have, if you added them to their primary character designs?
Could Moria put a shadow into a Homie that Big Mom created with her soul power?
What's the dirtiest thing that Qiliingham has ever pulled out of someone's mind?
Back in Ohara, we saw a orrery of the One Piece World surrounded by several other celestial bodies. We already know that the name of the One Piece World is "Blue Star". Did the scientists at Ohara give these other celestial bodies names?
Who’s Brook’s favorite musician? Before and after he died.
Luffy had a smoke ribbon around him, even back when he was just using Gear 4. Was he "awakened" even back then? Or are there different "levels" of awakening?
Are there any differences between a Mink and a Zoan of the same animal type? For example, would a Cat Mink be equal in strength or speed to a Cat Zoan, or would one have some advantages over the other?
Is it even possible for a water-based Devil Fruit to exist? Would a Water elemental Logia even be possible, given the Devil Fruit User’s weakness to water?
Akainu and Hibari both have the same accent. Are they related?
Can Luffy summon life into being with his Nika powers? Can he pull a new lifeform he imagines out of his head? If he could, what kind of new pet would Luffy pull out of his own head?
Has Chinode been collecting “souvenirs” from Princess Vivi since she’s been around her for a while now? Can we get a look at her collection? Is there a shrine?
Is Tritoma actually Boa Hancock's mother?
What would Blackbeard look like if he got the NIka Fruit and awakened Gear 5, rather than Luffy?
What would a hybrid of a Mink and a Fishman be called? What about a Mink and a Giant? Any other memorable combinations of races that are worth mentioning?
Is there a connection between Big News Morgans and Axe Hand Morgan? It's just weird that they have nearly the same name.
Is Queen actually Franky's dad?
-(I just want confirmation.)
What was the name of Charlotte Pudding’s father? How did this Three Eye Tribe member meet Big Mom and what happened to him?
We see different people using these feather quill pens all around the world. Who sells these and what bird are they made from? Are they all from the News Coos, or are they more exotic than that?
Who makes the Celestial Dragon’s bubble helmets? Are there different competing brands? Did the guy who made the “square” bubble helmet we saw Saint Jalmack wear go out of business, since we never saw any other Celestial Dragon wearing that style ever again? Was that a “limited edition” helmet? Are there other helmet shapes we haven’t seen?
Why do Skypiean’s call dirt “Vearth”? Where does the “V” come from?
Do the Gods Knights and Gorosei know the Six Powers that CP9 know?
What method did the Impel Down Jailer Beasts use to partially awaken their fruits? Did they just awaken from fighting the prisoners, or did something else happen to partially awaken their Fruits?
Is Vegapunk annoyed that Green Blood is…well, Green instead of Red? Like how he was annoyed at the Pink Dragon Fruit not being blue?
How did Vegapunk educate the Seraphim? Did he just download everything into their brain "digitally" or did he teach a few things to them using "analog" methods? Was it all just straight facts or did he download any educational cartoons or kids shows into them? I wanna see the Serpahim equivalent to Sesame Street! (Sea-same Street?)
If two people of the same exact rank gave a Seraphim conflicting orders what would happen? Like two Gorosei giving orders at the same time?
Is there a Fishman version of Minatomo who's helping rebuild the Noah at Fishman Island? Can we see him? (Minnow-tomo?)
Biblo the owl can make inanimate objects grow larger. Vivre cards are inanimate objects that indicate the amount of life force someone has. So, could Biblo use his growth powers on a Vivre Card that’s in the middle of burning up in order to give that person a few extra minutes or seconds of life?
Who repairs and maintains the gallows at Loguetown? They probably had their work cut out for them repairing that piece of history after Luffy got ahold of it. It's a highly valued cultural artifact. And a big tourist attraction. Someone has to be maintaining it. Does Loguetown have a historical society in charge of this kind of thing?
How did Ochoku take control of Hachinosu?
What caused the original Germa Kingdom's 66 days of ruling the North Blue to end?
How did Blackbeard track down Absalom in order to steal his Invisibility Fruit?
How did Blackbeard's raid on the Revolutionary base Baltigo play out? Who fought who? Did Blackbeard steal anything from the encounter?
Can we see Vivi's reaction to finding out Pell lived? We never got to see anyone's reaction to finding out Pell survived the bomb.
How did Vinsmoke Judge woo Sora? What did she ever see in him to make her fall in love with this guy?
What's the most romantic thing that Roger ever did for Rouge?
How did Scopper get Ripley to start dating him? Or was it the other way around?
Kuma must have have been on Amazon Lily at some point, since he sent Luffy there with his Paw-Paw powers. What kind of adventure did Kuma have on the island of women?
How DID Moria manage to build Thriller Bark? This is a engineering marvel, turning a graveyard into a mobile ship! Is Moria secretly an engineering genius?!
How did Garp and Bogard first become friends? Did they bond in the middle of battle, or did they just get along from the start?
A lot of the animals we see on Elbaph look familiar. Did Shiki steal most of his animals from Elbaph? How did he ever escape without being noticed by the Giants? Would the Giants even try to stop him, or was that basically fair game, as long as he was strong enough to capture them?
What was Koby's life like before boarding Alvida's ship? Did he have a family?
Can you tell us more about the Payback War? Did Blackbeard kill any other of Whitebeard's kids? Did Blackbeard find a way to profit from this?
We’ve seen statues of dragons in Alabasta, and Fishman Island, and Wano. Do these dragon statues have any names or nicknames? Like the statue of Hachiko in Shibuya? Do the locals have any stories or legends they tell about these statues?
