Decent chapter but when you've had 50 fake deaths so far it doesn't hit the same.
If Saul was the only or one of the very few people that came back it would have been more impactful.
Yes i hate the fake deaths. Don't get me wrong, emotional reunions are nice and all but when nearly every character we thought to be dead returns the impact is lost. Which is funny because when i began watching One Piece i was equally shocked and fascinated by the sheer violence and stakes. It was the first 'cartoon' where i had to fear for the characters' lives. 😂

I hate all the fake deaths in the series to begin with, but another issue that I didn't see anybody bringing up is Saul never contacting Robin in 20 years.
He himself was hiding from the WG, okay. But he's the history professor of Elbaf so he seems pretty respected. Don't see any reason why he couldn't have sent some of his studends to find Robin lmao
Or maybe he did but they couldn't find her because she hid too well?
At very least this should be addressed either in this chapter or the next one
Oda won't address it. I wouldn't be surprised if he came up with Saul's survival 2 days before writing it in the story. He does those fake outs so he can write tearful reunions and emotionally baiting the audience. Those are nice and wholesome in moderation but Loda overdoes it. Every arc has at least one fake death or fake survival reveal at this point.
 
Thought the same
Robin went through hell so why not go and search for her? She could have had an easy life in Elbaf
Hope Oda gives a reason like i searched for you and couldn't find you or something and doesn't just ignore it
Wouldn't be surprised if he comes up with some kind of ''she has her own life and has found good friends that protect her'' lazy explanation. Loda doing Loda things😂

What value would there be to Zoro killing Kaido though ?
My post was only half serious but IF he does go this route it's for fan service. Remember, he said that the rooftop fight was basically fan service. Oda would've never written Zoro like this without the fans' demands in his mind.


People joke but Bellemere and Kuina are probably next lol.
Bellemere is doubtful, she's a sacrificial mother, those don't return.
If another flashback character turns out to be alive I could see it being Tom
He was taken to Enies Lobby but we didn't see actually get executed
Tom is more likely than Bellemere.
