I'm also along on the idea that Buggy and Shanks were both kinda related to the God Valley thing... kinda fits with Rayleigh (?) saying he hasn't seen a baby in a long time when he saw Oden's two kids...
Not sure about Buggy, but I think Shanks was definitely son of Rox, and Roger took him in and looked after him. But Shanks ain't no snitch, tho'....
It's just that him and the Gorosei have common ground, and the Gorosei are aware that Shanks isn't after the throne... he's just protecting it... something that's also advantageous to the Gorosei...
And Shanks knows Blackbeard's potential threat... and that he's growing stronger by the minute... and for all we know, the guy just doesn't want BB's asshole-smelling hands near Roger's treasure... so ofc he goes and tells that shit to the Gorosei.. a bunch of old, retired folk who doesn't want anyone touch that thing.
It's mutualism, basically.
Is he that narcissistic? :smithnie:
How is marrying into a family being narcissistic? o_O
I don't get what you're saying at all, tbh.
