Controversial Shanks triple agent?

#1
For a long time people being speculation about Shanks being double agent and having this 20 years future sight where he planned every single little step in order to make Luffy the Sun God Nika and somehow this helps his goals, whatever they are. Which would mean Shanks is secret a villain. Which never made any sense to me, it was always a stupid theory.

BUT!!!

What if he was actually being a triple agent? Pretending to be a villain but in reality just being one of the good guys?

It is clear as water that Shanks is good. The most important years of his life he grew up with Roger's crew. There was where he build his character, his values, his moral etc. After Roger's death he joined Holy Knights (he didn't became one but was doing the same things as them) and started to pretend to be one of them when actually he was using his position to help people around the world against the tiranny of Celestial Dragons.

And we know how fucking retards the whole World Governament are. Even after Shanks disappeared and showed up as a pirate, even to the point he became strong enough to be considered a Yonko, those fucking idiots still receive him like he is one of them for a meeting. So what does that means? Probably Shanks, who is actually smart, is pretending to give them informations to keep their trust while in reality he is just plotting against them.

Shanks is not double agent, he is triple agent. And only someone as dumb as a Gorosei would not doubt about him.

Because your mistake is thinking Shanks' goals are evil. But he is, if you want, a "good" Aizen--he orchestrated all the proper circumstances for Nika to emerge and finally be victorious. Shanks isn't using Luffy for evil, but to free the world from IMU and the CDs' corrupt society, once and for all.

A "third agent component" could arise if, aside from being a pirate carrying Roger's will infiltrated as a CD/HK doing the bare minimum to gain IMU's trust/obtain necessary secrets, Shanks were also working with the Revolutionaries. But I don't know if that makes any sense, given that Dragon didn't seem to know anything about IMU during the Reverie.

He is using a random one for any purpose already makes him evil.

I'd elaborate something but I can't because of One Piece ass writting. Usually such God fruit would have people hunting him down for it but WG gave 0 fucks until now. And even know they don't care much about it. Luffy is the eternal underdog no matter how much the plot advances. He is already Yonko, he has a fucking God DF, yet no one treats him as a real threat.

Anyway, the point of being triple agent is that Shanks is a pirate (single agent) who works for World Governament (double agent) in order to trick the World Governament to make the world a better place (triple agent).

The introduction of Shamrock and Garling def killed the idea of him being a villain but yeah he is definitely looking like a triple agent or at least it’s possible, using his privilege for good good deeds.
What bothers me is that how he still have such privileges even after becoming a pirate AGAIN and ascending to the Yonko level.

That's just being a double agent. Working for X, but actually having an anti-X agenda.
You're missing the third step there, hence me mentioning the Revs.

Shanks is not a double or triple agent he just wants Luffy to fulfil Joyboy Will. Like anyone that doubts that are dumb and it's tells me your lvl of reading comprehension.
To the world he is a pirate (first agent), to WG he is a spy (double agent) but in reality he is playing with WG (triple agent)

He aint even an agent lol. He's a good character who snuck into Mariejoa to get details on whatever he needed and noped the fuck out

His father and brother were created to be evil. Thats it, theres nothing else deep about this anymore

Yes im a salty bitch
Would you agree that the only reason Shanks is now going after the OP is because he knows that Luffy would want to fight Shanks as a genuine rival, rather than just having a friendly sparring match?

Its possible that Shamrock warned Shanks about the seal stuff and Shanks escaped the day he was about to become a Holy Knight.

Hes going after the OP because Nika awakened, he will help Luffy become PK and then go against the WG.

Tbh I dont really think much of the rival thing anymore. Like @Fujishiro said, its probably just him helping and guiding Luffy.
It was already implied at the end of Wano that he seemingly knew either Luffy or Ace were destined to eat the fruit. Im like 90% sure he was in Windmill to see Ace, given who Roger is to Shanks. Luffy eating it probably was the only surprise. He expected Roger's lineage to carry that destiny.

And evidently he waited this entire time for the fruit to awaken itself, especially given his reaction he didnt start "moving" until that point.

I think whatever "hype" we have attributed to Luffy fighting Shanks can just be transferred over to Shamrock. While Id like to see it, Im not expecting it given this. If Oda actually still gives them a legitimate fight for legitimate reaspons I would be absolutely shocked lol

Shanks left the HK because Shanks wanted to eat the Nika fruit, but Luffy took it. Shanks now just wants the OP, which hasn´t actually been established as something connected to the Nika fruit. Not complicated

But then why would Shanks care about getting Road Poneglyphs?

If I recall correctly, Luffy mentioned in PH that Shanks is the Yonko he wants to fight most of all. I think that Luffy wants to beat Shanks in a fight with genuine stakes, and Shanks is aware of that.

:luuh:

Its a great point but I just dont think its that deep anymore. That can easily be explained by needing to be there with Luffy when gets to LT. We have no idea what Roger told him after all.

Again, Im just a pessimist at this point lol, ignore me
