Questions & Mysteries Is Orochi dead?

[Kafkananta]

I mean if EGG df can make someone almost immortal why can't such a RARE df based on MYTH that looks like one of that particular creature based on certain MYTH too that coincidentally has more than one head do the same?

Why should kaido know it? It's not like orochi has to say that to kaido. And the question is, does orochi himself even know about this? It's not like his head has been cut everyday.


And if orochi knew then he wouldn't say it. That dude is freaking paranoid so obviously he will have a few hidden aces. Even against kaido.

Well thanks to himself Kaido has surely not seen Orochi being ever seriously harmed in 25 years so I wouldn't be that surprised if he doesn't know every detail about Orochi's df.

orochi comes back he will have a serious personality and could be a badass shogun we hoped for

 

[BangOO🍅]

That is the point, it will be more satisfying if Momonosuke/Hiyori or the nine scabbards is the one who kill Orochi, and he dead in his Zoan Form, not in his human form.

Oda has cried wolf so many times, so it's understandable that this is another cry. But it would be pathetic tbh.

However, these are some reasons why he might be actually dead:

(1) Kanjuro. He had 2 soldiers with chopped off heads saying Kozuki bloodline is finished. If we take it at face value, that's exactly what happened to the Kurozomi bloodline. And it does look like Kanjuro at least bit the bullet, since Kiku is crying with blood on her sword. Kiku also stated that her wounds will "haunt him in the afterlife" so there was perfect set up for Kanjuro's death.

(2) Once Law retrieves Momo, the war will start, i.e. next chapter. Luffy and Yamato are running towards Kaido. This is the biggest war in One Piece so far, and Orochi's death amidst Kaido/BM proclamation would be the perfect way to start it.

(3) People were saying Orochi was dead and Fukuwhatshisface was shocked as well.

(4) For people wanting Hiyori, Momo, Zoro, Scabbards, etc... to take revenge, understand something. Oda was never for revenge killings, at least not from the protagonist. As much as the fanbase likes this, Straw Hats are not vindictive assholes. Now I'm not saying they never take revenge. They just don't KILL for revenge. Luffy didn't kill Arlong for example. I think the only time SHs ever killed someone was Zoro in Alabasta for some random BW agent, and since then Oda has never made them kill anyone, and certainly not for revenge.

Story wise it would make much more sense for Kaido, his ally in taking down Oden, betraying Orochi, rather than having some cheesy revenge kill story which Oda never goes for.

 

[Patryipe]

I personally have doubts even about Kanjuro...

 

[DertyDaeary]

No but I sure as hell hope so. His subplot is boring as fuck

 

[davidobandolim]

Orochi is dead

 

[Ryuarashi]

**I want Orochi dead because he's not the badass Shogun from my headcannon**

If you've not been skipping set up/story orientated chapters you'll know that Oda focuses on story more than anything else whether some fans like it or not which simply answers the question that Orochi is not dead...yet

If this story was written by author of fairy tail I would totally agree with the Orochi being dead theory.

 

[stefan999]

This bothering me for a while. He went down to fast and in unsatisfactory way. He should have been killed by samurais or SHs and his DF is wasted. He must be alive.

 

[Albino 👑]

Probably not imo

Im hoping he tries to get back at everyone by destroying wano. Like if he can't have it nobody can and for more revenge against the citizens. He'll likely capture hiyori as well

Wano feels way too separated from whats going on at the moment and i dont think its gonna stay that way. Hell probably this arcs ticking time bomb

 

[Midnight Delight]

No

 

[Fuckthis3]

Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

 

[Finalbeta]

I don't think he survived and here is why.

When the slash happened his head was cut when he was not transformed, this implies that one head counts for three when he is not transformed, or else he would be immortal in his human form right? Since he can't possess three heads.

 

[MugiwaraMaster]

Also, Fuku was looking at something suspicious. Maybe that’s Orochi’s body regenerating.

 

[Seth]

He's irrelevant to the story. Shinobu dialogue should be enough for people to understand this.

If he's alive he better catch Yamato off guard and murders her as a payback for what Kaido did to him.

Perfect Act 3 ending.

 

[Paperchampion23]

He's alive. Oda wouldn't have shown Fukurokuju acting suspicious and Hotei noticing it otherwise. Even Kanjuro's "death" is pretty suspect.

 

[Celestial D. Dragon]

It's even more doubtful after this current chapter. Orochi's downfall should be witnessed by the Citizens of Wano who have suffered for 20 years under his rule.

 

[Just a member]

He is most likely alive, the only doubt is if he will actually be back in the current story, in a cover story, become a character like that slimy df new supernova or Caesar.

 

[MasterD]

I think he might be dead
