I wanted to ask you about that recently as I knew you were watching Dragonbal!

I really love that fight with him and Goku in the original/Japanese anime especially! The music is too fucking awesome, pure 80's brilliance!

Some people have even added it into the dub too!:




:funky::steef::goyea::finally:


I only discovered this song because someone posted it on here before, I think for a contest here too IIRC but I can't remember who either?

:memehm::wonderland:

Also the original language version too:

Title: One Piece: Explosive Liberation! Pedro's Unstoppable Chaos

Scene: Egghead Island – The Ultimate Showdown

The camera zooms in on Egghead Island, buzzing with futuristic technology. Inside Vegapunk's lab, explosions erupt in every direction as the Straw Hats prepare for their most outrageous battle against the Gorosei, who stand in their beastly forms.

The lab is a cacophony of whirring machinery and the sound of Pedro’s self-detonations. Carrot watches in a mix of horror and fascination as Pedro explodes yet again.

Carrot (wide-eyed, clutching her ears):
“Pedro! Can you please try not to self-destruct every five seconds? I can't handle the trauma from this! I might need therapy!”


Pedro (smirking, floating mid-explosion):
“For the Mink Tribe! And a little chaos never hurt anyone!”


As another explosion detonates, Kizaru gets blasted yet again, his body disintegrating into light before reforming coolly, shades perfectly intact.

Kizaru (sighing, brushing off dust):
“This is worse than facing Akainu. I thought my regeneration was something special, but this? It’s like I’m stuck in a low-budget comedy!”


Suddenly, Vegapunk Stella's body, a dark silhouette smothered in soot and gunpowder, bounces wildly around the lab. He ricochets off walls and lab equipment, creating comical sound effects—“ping,” “pow,” “thwack”—as he spins uncontrollably.

Vegapunk Stella (deadpan, spinning):
“Remind me to install a self-cleaning feature next time. Or maybe a safety harness... and a helmet for all this debris!”


As the chaos unfolds, the Gorosei appear, transformed into their mythical beast forms:

Saint Jaygarcia Saturn: A fearsome ox-spider hybrid with venomous fangs.
Saint Marcus Mars: An eerie bird with a human face, eyes glowing ominously.
Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro: A grotesque skeletal horse, radiating malice.
Saint Topman Warcury: A massive boar, tusks gleaming like blades.
Saint Shepherd Ju Peter: A colossal sandworm, burrowing beneath the lab and shaking the ground.


Jaygarcia Saturn (roaring, the sound reverberating through the chaos):
“You think you can defeat us, miserable pests? We are the supreme authority of this world!”


Marcus Mars (mockingly, flapping his wings):
“Even in your wildest dreams, you couldn’t comprehend our power! Prepare to be annihilated!”


As the Gorosei boast, Zoro steps forward, his swords gleaming under the lab's flickering lights.

Zoro (grinning):
“An ox-spider and a skeletal horse? I’ve fought scarier things in a sushi bar! Bring it on!”


He charges at Nusjuro, slashing through the air with expert precision. Nusjuro snarls and lunges at Zoro, but Zoro dances around him with ease.

Nusjuro (furious, eyes narrowing):
“Fool! I am the embodiment of death! You will regret ever stepping foot here!”


Zoro (smirking):
“Yeah, well, you’re making this fight boring. I expected more from the Gorosei.”


Just then, Atlas, the female Vegapunk clone, leaps in to assist Zoro.

Atlas (determined, charging fiercely):
“I’ll help you, Zoro! Together, we can take them down!”


Before she can finish, she attempts to self-destruct in a heroic act, but just then, Pedro explodes again, creating chaos.

Pedro (yelling):
“Not on my watch!”


The blast sends Vegapunk Stella’s body flying through the air, bouncing between Atlas and Zoro in a slapstick moment.

Atlas (barely dodging Stella):
“Is this a fight or a circus act?!”


As the battle escalates, Pedro, now in a rhythm of detonation, continues to blow himself up, taking out Kizaru repeatedly in the process.

Kizaru (after reforming yet again, exasperated):
“I’d rather deal with a Celestial Dragon than this madness!”


The explosions send Vegapunk Stella careening off the walls, creating chaotic visuals as he spins and flies around.

Carrot (laughing in disbelief):
“Hey, look! It’s Vegapunk’s pinball! Is he trying to scare us or entertain us?”


As the chaos continues, Zoro successfully lands a blow, sending Nusjuro flying, but he quickly recovers and lunges at Zoro again.

Nusjuro (furious):
“You think you can defeat me so easily?! You will regret ever stepping foot here!”


Zoro (calmly):
“Yeah, well, you missed the memo. I’m the guy who sends death packing!”


The ground shakes as the other Gorosei join the fray, unleashing devastating attacks.

The tension builds as the Gorosei summon their powers, the room shaking as they prepare to unleash their ultimate attacks.

Jaygarcia Saturn (grinning maliciously):
“Prepare to meet your end!”


Marcus Mars (mockingly):
“Your hope is futile, mice! You will be squashed!”


But just as the Gorosei are about to launch their assault, Pedro suddenly appears, glowing with energy.

Pedro (yelling):
“This is for all the fallen Minks!”


He explodes in an enormous blast, engulfing the Gorosei. The force breaks through the lab's barriers, creating a shockwave that echoes through the island. Vegapunk’s body continues to spin around, hilariously ricocheting off the walls like a cartoon character.

As the dust settles, the remnants of the Gorosei are strewn everywhere, with no sign of their legendary regeneration. The lab is in ruins, but the Straw Hats are safe.

Zoro (panting, looking around):
“Did we actually win?”


Carrot (wide-eyed, still in shock):
“I can’t believe it… Did we really just blow them up?!”


Suddenly, Pedro appears, a victorious grin plastered on his face, albeit covered in debris.

Pedro (proudly):
“They’re gone! Finally!”


Just then, Pedro launches himself into the air and heads straight for Imu, who has been observing from afar.

Imu (freaking out, wide-eyed):
“W-WHAT?! What is happening?!”


Pedro (yelling as he flies):
“Imu! Your tyranny ends here!”


The camera follows Pedro as he zooms toward Imu, a fiery explosion trailing behind him.

In an epic moment, Pedro detonates himself again, creating an explosion so grand it lights up the entire sky, obliterating Imu once and for all.

As the chaos subsides, the Straw Hats gather, and the camera shifts to Kuma and Bonney, who find each other amid the wreckage.

Bonney (crying tears of joy):
“Dad! You’re back!”


Kuma (smiling gently):
“We can finally be together again.”


They embrace, and the surrounding fighters share in the relief of victory. The camera pans back to Pedro, who is still trying to catch his breath after the monumental blast.

Pedro (glancing at Carrot):
“I might have overdone it a bit, huh?”


Carrot (rolling her eyes):
“You think?! I’m going to need therapy after this!”


The camera zooms out to show Egghead Island, now peaceful again, albeit in ruins. The Straw Hats gather, looking forward to new adventures.

Zoro (looking at the horizon):
“Let’s set sail. There’s still a world out there to explore.”


Pedro (grinning):
“After this, I might just take a vacation from explosions!”


As they prepare to leave, Vegapunk’s voice echoes through the lab, full of exhaustion but humor.

Vegapunk Stella (finally stopping his spinning):
“Next time, let’s plan for fewer explosions… and maybe more snacks?”


The scene fades out, leaving behind a sense of chaos and triumph, the spirit of adventure alive on Egghead Island.

Right?! I wonder if its really coincidence too, given how much Oda is holding back Dragon, Dragon being seen as the "worlds worst criminal/most wanted man" and Xebec having a similar legacy/role too but as a pirate instead? Both of them are directly the biggest threats to the WG, even beyond Roger as the Pirate King apparently? (I mean Xebec being a bigger threat than Roger ofc)

Just what the hell is Oda cooking here?! The fact we barely know anything on Xebec and Dragon and we've seen neither of them fight nor do anything and Xebec has yet to be fully revealed....





Whats up man?

:choppawhat:
dragon is rocks' son, married garp's daughter. :kuzanshut:

What is there...that still remains to you?
I've always loved the sound tracks of the anime adaptations, they were surprisingly good for their time, especially the opening and ending:
I also love the fight choreography, though it feels like it's a little too fast sometimes.
Right?! Anime was a lot better in the 80s to early 2000s, we were insanely spoiled!

A lot more heart, soul, a lot more of a personal touch, much more grounded and humble.
The fight choreography in early Dragonball and focus on actual martial arts and CQC, when humans were mostly the focus and enemies was much better.

It's all far too extreme now instead. I'm starting to understand why older generations prefer much simpler movies and shows including martial arts ones.

There's a reason why a lot of stuff from a few decades ago has a lot more soul, charm, whimsy, memorability etc.

80s-90s Japanese music and thus OP and EDs go extremely hard.

If I was at home I could give a much more detailed explanation with examples but maybe I'll follow up this post later on.
 
- Loki in flashback appears to be training, he is using attacks similarly to Kaido's three realms Ragnarok with his War Hammer
- He has a legendary attack called 9 realms of Ragnarok, it was felt through the entire new world when he killed his father with it
- Red Hair Pirates helped the Giant Warriors of Elbaph, we see an epic double spread Loki standing in front of everyone
- He begs Luffy for food he says he's very hungry
- At the end of the chapter Hajrudin appears he killed Ryokugyu and ate the Wood Logia wanting to claim the throne in Elbaph
- Loki wants to become the King of the entire world
