Break Week One Piece Chapter 987: Faithful Servant

[BangOO🍅]

So Kaido is Weather Dragon or Weather dragon fruit user?

Im still not sure if he really ate Shenron DF.
The fact that the narration said "In the sea, he is the strongest".

But the thunder/ice thing might be because of his advanced CoC

 

[Weeman]

What I want to know is...

... do any of us actually know anything about Kabuki structure? Actually know through their own experience and research, not just reading off the Wikipedia page and the one website in English that talks about and says it has five acts? I sure don't.

I do, they actually have 26 acts

 

[Ravagerblade]

I hope the haters of yamato learn their place. Ulti's strong but Yamato still made her bleed and knocked out.
Now we just gotta watch and see if Oda has plans to make Yamato look weaker than her earlier portrayal or not.

• Jo | First Act
  • A slow opening which introduces the characters and the story.
• Ha | Second, Third and Fourth Act
  • It is the combination of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th act.
  • The second and fourth act consists of battles.
  • The Ha speeds up the action leading to a reat dramatic moment or tragedy in the third act.
• Kyu | Final Act or Fifth Act
  • This act wraps up the story in a quick and satisfying conclusion.

This is from the site but it's the same thing Tekking talked about which he probably also found on the site.

If Oda is really going to follow the acts ending as it should be then we are set for a "Dramatic moment".

Ulti's strong but Yamato still made her bleed and knocked out.

Scabbards made Kaido bleed

Ulti woke up a few seconds after that.

It was half KO just like her half Thunder Bagua.

 

[Ravagerblade]

lul. Let's see if that happens. Prolly not, but hilarious.

 

[Garp the Fist]

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm talking about. I've seen that been bandied about for two years now. Hell, I've used it myself. But it's been taken as gospel that it's how Kabuki (and thus this arc) is always done, when it really isn't all that solid a source.

I wonder if Oda could think of totally flipping the Acts structure. I wonder if some Japanese culture boys would get mad over it.
Basically, what I mean is what if Kaido decides to flip the supposed endings of the Acts?

 

[Awaken Fruit]

Luffy and Sulong Carrot vs big mom????????? A strong tag team right there

That would be crazy

 

[Garp the Fist]

I've actually looked at a few Kabuki plays since this has been brought up. Five acts does seem to be the norm, but it's by no means the only way it can be done. One (based on the 47 Ronin that I'm pretty sure the Scabbards have drawn some inspiration by) actually has eleven acts

 

[Zowo]

lul. Let's see if that happens. Prolly not, but hilarious.

bet u want that to happen

 

[Formerly Seth]

bet u want that to happen

There are even people who think that Yamato is on Commander level

Delusion level even greater than people who wanked Kaido's title over WB's.

With the best quote ever:
"KAIDO WOULD NEVER GET STABBED LIKE WB DID".

 

[Deleted member 83]

So Kaido is Weather Dragon or Weather Dragon Fruit user?

Don’t know what you mean by weather dragon but in most legends eastern dragons have the power to manipulate weather, especially rain/water

 

[Formerly Seth]

I don't follow stuff like that.

So basically Kaido doesn't need to be any special dragon to control the weather right?

 

[Deleted member 83]

Technically yes
Also he is confirmed to have the ability to generate clouds, which I guess would be considered by some to be weather manipulation

 

[Momoheechulkabe9000]

We give for granted that Oda will do 5 acts to imitate the Kabuki style. But what if he will actually do just 3 acts?

The colorspread said something like " the battle is reaching its climax . Here is the colorspread to celebrate the popularity of the arc".

Oda so far is making a job convincing us that this arc is gonna end now which is always possible but there are lots of loose ends to resolve. I just think it would be a lot more exciting if there is an act 4.

 

[Formerly Seth]

Technically yes
Also he is confirmed to have the ability to generate clouds, which I guess would be considered by some to be weather manipulation

So there are only two possibilities for Kaido:
1. He's a Mythical Eastern Dragon fruit user.
2. He's a Mythical Eastern Dragon who ate Human Human fruit.

 

[This_Guy]

Or he could just be like Onimaru, a shapeshifter.

 

[Ravagerblade]

Or he could just be like Onimaru, a shapeshifter.

If Kaidou is a Dragon that ate a Human DF, then is Yamato also shapeshifted, considering she's humanoid not Dragonkin.

 

[This_Guy]

If Kaidou is a Dragon that ate a Human DF, then is Yamato also shapeshifted, considering she's humanoid not Dragonkin.

It's interesting to think about, I'd say if kaidou is a legitimate shapeshifter of some kind, then Yamato could've inherited some trait.

We're 70+ chapters in and still no DF confirmation on Kaidou

 

[Fallen Prince]

Translation is pretty bad as always.

I dont understand half the time yamato says "she mentions its time for her to become kozuki ode " then mentions she is no longer the ally of beast pirates both dont make any sense.


Rest of chapter is awesome i think we might really see if kaido is worth the hype or not ?

Bad move to release sulong mink early it only means mink gang will lose early.

If lurking legend is alive then this is the time or its just downer.

I watched kabuki play . It def has 3 acts but if oda is going traditional way we might get around 5 .
