General & Others Killing Vegapunk is such shitty writing and to make it worse Oda sends fodder after him.

Oda turning World Government into buffoons where they put more effort into killing their top scientist than they do in trying to kill Robin or Joy Boy Nika. Vegapunk knowing too much information does not mean it's okay to kill him off. This subplot of WG wanting to kill Vegapunk is just Oda's lazy way of writing where he wants an easy path in making Vegapunk another Strawhat ally. And to make it worse Oda sends fodder CP0 with Seraphim to kill the person who created them, that is some great writing there. While at the same time Kizaru and the other admirals are at home sitting on their asses getting high twiddling their thumbs.
I said it many times during the spoilers so I will just repeat if you don't mind.

It only makes sense if this is a part of the cleansing shit.

When fodders/humanity in general get too advanced, Im/Gorosei decide to do a social reset and kill everyone who are too smart for this era.

Ancient Kingdom probably wasn't ancient but advanced as fuck hence why WG decided to put an end to it so they can keep everything best for themselves and rule over the low iq people.

If it's not and Oda just wants to involve Vegapunk assasination plot then it is strictly retarded but we both know it.

No, it's not about fight and powers.
It's about self realisation and breaking the chains of fate.
Both themes violated by the plot of Naruto, the fact that happens through fights it's because fights are main vehicle for plot in a Shonen.
You say it's not about fights and instead bring up war and alliances, when they are one and the same.
Loneliness and discriminations are themes ONLY for the first 24 volumes.
Still,in my opinion are themes well written in that story

LOOOOL
OP story surpass Naruto in every point

Naruto aims to become a hokage then it becomes a pervert addiction for Sasuke
Also Jesus Naruto completely destroyed the story he defeated Madara and Kaguya only due Hagoromo and Kyuubi

Luffy could awaken Nika only when he reached yonko level himself this is massive difference

the fights in Naruto are better
The fights are better indeed. Naruto isnt perfect and i definitely prefer the first part. But i wasnt bothered so much by Kaguya at the end

Disagreed that 3 CP-0 agents and the strongest Seraphim are fodder but I agree with the general spirit of the thread, the Government trying to kill Vegapunk is colossal stupidity.
Lee...

Vegapunk just says: "Seraphim Kuma, Delete the access for CP0".

The fodder comments are about CP0, not Seraphim.

Ain't no way those CP0 idiots think Seraphim will listen to them but not their creator. All of Vegapunk creations more than likely have some switches inside them that work on his command.

Yeah…. I’m not sure what is going on, Vegapunk better be caught red handed in schemeing against the WG otherwise this is inexcusable.
he was. cp0 was in wano. they know he lied about the duplicate devil fruit and covered it up to keep it from them. vegapunk is sitting there taking their money to invent the stuff he wants and lies to them and says he can't do the stuff they want, even when he can.

after they have proof he duped the dragon fruit and lied about it, they probably went "wait a minute he lied about kuma and their ship too, he's been plotting against us the whole time"

Like I said, the Government gets zero points for IQ here but CP-0 are their top assassins. Lol

They should’ve sent Ryokugyu. Have the World Nobles that he views as “Gods” tell him to quietly eliminate Vegapunk he would probably do it with no questions asked. Like you said, using Vegapunk’s own creations against him is a recipe for disaster that a child should notice.

Another possible take on this is that it wasn't Gorosei alike related order and it was some autistic fat Celestial Dragon who didn't like Vegapunk's invention lmao.

Remember that Lucci is retarded as fuck and will listen to any orders.

I was hoping Marines/WG hunting them down after failing at Enies Lobby would put some oil into their brains but it looks like it's not.

Sad, cause Lucci's redemption could've been funny.

Anyone and everyone is expendable to the World Government. They got what they wanted out of Vegapunk, and now he is no longer needed. He knows too much, and could be a potential threat to their ideologies....

This shit has happened countless times in REAL WORLD history.....

And, how dense can a person be, when Oda set up Vegapunk becoming a potential ally with the Straw Hat, 100's of chapters ago by allowing Kuma to guard their ship for two years while they were away training.

This is not just something Oda threw in there on a whim, with no foreshadowing at all.

Bro probably figured out Imu existense and realised Gorosei were just pussies hiding for this long.

That's why lulusia came up in their discussion.
same thing happened their.
sabo got to know about it and tried to tell it to others.

I agree that the seeds were already planted that Vegapunk will become an ally but the way Oda is developing it in this chapter is the most lazy way possible. Oda simply doesn't like to do his homework so he uses shortcuts every fing time. Oda is just too lazy to develop a proper narrative of Vegapunk establishing an alliance with Luffy so he uses this cheap plot convenient shortcut to do it.

It has nothing to do with setting it up though, because that was going to happen regardless. Vegapunk was already interested in wanting to speak to them upon their arrival.

This is just Oda's way of bringing some kind of conflict into the arc, which is definitely plot convenience, due to the timing of it coinciding with the Straw Hats arrival.
 
#58
People are assuming that Vegapunk is loyal to the government and not just sending scraps their way to keep them off his back.
You do raise a good point. At the end of chapter 1062, Lucci does refer to the Kuma Serpahim as a "problem child" which might mean that Vegapunk hasn't given them complete control over the Seraphims, and they tend to act up and not strictly obey commands.
 
#59
This is a common thing in stories, you get rid of people that know too much even if they are valuable. Besides we don't know all the reasons why they want to kill Vegapunk, Lucci talked about Lulucia kingdom, there could be some other things involved, this is just the beginning of the arc.
As for sending fodders lol. Lucci, Kaku and Stussy aren't fodders, Vegapunk is working with WG and isn't supposed to know they were sent to kill him so it would be easy to approach him for them. Assuming they are high tiers, they should be able to kill him if they get close to the real one.
You are just nitpicking again

Yea the person who is labeled the genius scientist and hyped to oblivion by Oda where he created Pacifistas, Serpahim, etc is going to get killed by two CP0 agents. You really going to make Vegapunk look that dumb and weak after hyping him up?
