ONE PIECE CHAPTER 1144 : Warrior Time
- Thread starter Akai2
- Start date
Gaban is literally got hailed as "Invincible".
And motherfuckers out here thinking bro would get hypetooled by a Holy Roppo.
He had a flashback where Shanks asked Gaban to believe in Luffy so he certainly has something of great use in the end game or else he would not be here.
There is no way he dies or is hypetool since Elbaph is the second part of the final saga and we just had a mega battle at Egghead and as history suggests this arc might be similar to Zou where there won't be a big war but a great chunk of lore is going to be explored.
So Gaban dying few chapters immediately after being introduced is funny considering this is OP where only fodders die. Pirates survive unless they are shown dead.
I think the harald storyline, loki and heaven realm will all be massive game changers especially since we've not seen the heaven realm yet too.
Since loki set the tree on fire too, that's gonna be the time bomb/apocalyptic event of the arc but imu is prob gonna take more drastic measures after Egghead now too.
I still can't believe we've had all Gorosei sent out but no Akainu nor more than 1 admiral at a time at this point too. Film Red allowed 2 Admirals to go fight too.
I wonder what happened to the original HKs, would be lame if they were killed without getting to see them in action and get to know them too.
Since Garling is a Gorosei now too, he might show up with a returning Shamrock but Cross Guild could potentially show up too imo as Buggy wants revenge for Luffy taking his giants too but it's too soon for Zoro to face Mihawk too so idk.
We've had Shanks and his retcon twin brother/Imposter appear in Elbaf and both still couldn't stay for long, typical Oda ffs lmao.
There gonna be a big curveball this arc imo, but who knows what. Oda still manages to surprise us after all too.

Decent chapter with some fun interactions between the non-Monster Trio Crew as well as the Holy Knights. Also, really nice to see Bonney as a Kid again permanently now, no more pretending.
I love how the dream monsters are drawn, and how Dorry and Broggy's attack was drawn. Really cool perspective from the flying ship. Crazy to think they're still in the story after 1000 chapters from their introduction.
Obviously, they'll save the kids and kill the monsters soon, which will trigger a direct confrontation with the 3 HKs. It seems overkill to have all the SHs + Giants + Gaban on one side, so I'm expecting them to have an ace up their sleeve. I'm semi-trolling with Big Mom, but I can see Shamrock, new HKs, or Imu coming in to even the odds.
Not on break next week, so will probably start really advancing the fight next chapter.

Heaven World is part of the same Adam Tree. Chances are, if the fire keeps spreading, someone from Heaven World will notice and come down to stop it.
I think we'll see some of the OG Holy Knights get killed in the God Valley flashback
Also, hear me out: Kidd never attacked Elbaph directly, just Shanks' Fleet. That's actually really important, IMO: Kidd hasn't technically DONE anything to Elbaph. He just wanted to fight Shanks. There was never ANY indication Kidd wanted to attack Elbaph itself. If anything, from the Man Marked by Flames commentary, they were looking for more Poneglyphs. Picking fights with the Giants would have the OPPOSITE effect of what the Kidd Pirates were looking for. So, where are they?
Well, what does Elbaph worship? War. That's it, war. Now, these WOKE kids who love GAY ASS SHIT (I'M JOKING MODS DON'T BAN ME) like PEACE and MANNERS don't understand the values of PILLAGE and CONQUEST, so they don't respect their lineage. BUT, Elbaph was built of war worship.
Where is Elbaph's Army? Where people are worshipped: Heaven Realm.
Luffy is a VERY important figure for Elbaph, now, but, who is one of his Captains in the Grand Fleet? Harjudin, who... is clearly DESPISED my much of Elbaph. Loki didn't just start spouting this shit off; the Giant Chiefs who hate Harald/Harjudin poisoned Loki by telling him he was superior because of his race, IMO.
Luffy isn't being welcomed in the Heaven World/Astral World BECAUSE he's Hajrudin's Benefactor. If Luffy had just helped Dorry and Brogy, and Oimo and Kashii, he might have been invited up to Heaven World.
Also keep in mind Shanks only visited the Underworld from what we know, the bar, and Loki's prison on the Tree. It's very possible the higher ups of Elbaph HATE Shanks having such a close connection to Elbaph, and view him as encroaching on their territory, especially since Shanks is also a Celestial Dragon by blood. If they know that, the Chiefs/Army probably detest Shanks.
So, who hasn't done anything against Elbaph, hates Shanks, tried to kill Shanks, and recently helped "kill" (we know she's not dead, but Elbaph clearly believes she is) Big Mom, Charlotte Linlin?
You know who it is:
I was workshopping a theory about Kidd becoming a Holy Knight, but, really, what has Kidd done to Elbaph? Fight Shanks? Who cares, he's not a part of their country, and they fought outside it, not on the land.
Kidd didn't harm a single Giant, nor Elbaph property, nor threaten them.
Kidd defeated the arch nemesis of the nation (this also means Law will be worshipped when he gets here, BTW), Big Mom.
Kidd should also be a hero of Elbaph: IMO he became a GOD.
Kidd is living it up in Heaven World/Astral World.
Luffy's friendship with Hajrudin is holding him back in terms of Elbaph's politics, but, despite his ties to Luffy's alliance, Kidd wants to fight/defeat Luffy, and would obviously deny being his ally, unlike Hajrudin, who will someday own Nika merchandise.
When Heaven World realizes the tree is on fire, the Army up there will come down. We've met the Giant Warrior Pirates and Giants from the Sun World, but no one has been introduced as a member of Elbaph's Army. Elbaph worships strength, all the strongest Giants will be part of the Army, except for the Luffy-types.
Kidd is REALLY metal, he has a total Viking vibe that fits Elbaph's warriors.
IMO Kidd, is in Heaven's World. It's why we haven't seen him at all, he's in the most isolated part of the nation. Kidd is being hailed as a hero of Elbaph.
