General & Others So what was the point of Kidd defeating Big Mom then?

establish himself as a big time pirate for shanks to look even better when he washes him.
would people be as impressed if say
kidd was still a pirate with a 500 mil bounty that has just been trashed by big mom in a 2v1 and then lost to shanks just this chap?


prob not.
Yes, if his peers also had the same bounty.
It just proves that Oda exaggerated the bounties.
Equivalent to lying to the readers.
 
maybe she comes back,Shanks would've took the ponoglyphs of elbaf, so there's no point of going it's a mini-arc or not an arc
Going to an island has nothing to do with needing to find poneglyphs. Egghead literally has nothing to do with them

We are going to Elbaf lol. Oda has hidden the island behind silhouettes for a reason, even during this whole fight with Shanks/Kid
 
yeah but it's going to shake the world in op, like who's the antagonist , what lore does he have, mini arc at best
Your logic literally does nothing to state whether or not an arc is small or large lmao.

People swore up and down that Egghead would be short and be max 20 chapters long. And now we are on the cusp of a full conflict with an Admiral and a Gorosei.

Elbaf's villain could be Loki. It could be the God Elbaf. It could be a revived Rocks. It could be whatever Oda wants.

But if Oda's goal was to make Shanks look better then why not just have Shanks defeat Big Mom instead? That makes Shanks look way better.

then worst generation would a complete waste of time since they wouldnt have played a role ( bar luffy) in overthrowing other powerhouses.

I think its playing on the idea of luffy having numerous competitors that begin to fall short as the story progresses clearing the path for him to eventually get the title.

But the worstgen did turn out to be a complete waste of time lol. They turned out to be irrelevant minus Law.

The numerous competitors could have been handled where the worstgen were fighting against each other. Kidd defeating Apoo, Killer defeating Hawkins, Drake defeating Capone, Urouge vs Kidd, etc. Then you have 6 worstgen member instead of 12 where 6 were knocked out of the race. Then Luffy, Zoro, Law will be the last three standing where Bonney, the only female, continues to cry asking what happened to Kuma lol.

Even Law is basically just the OP fruit after Dressrossa. He's only relevant for the immorality surgery

There isn't really a need for him when Robin and Dragon and Ironically Blackbeard himself as Ancient History fans, and now Vegapunk came along as another ancient history fan, and there's the man marked by fire...

Funnily Blackbeard basically is Both an Anti Luffy (Kidd's main thing) and a guy interested in the D History (Law's main thing).

Law is relevant to story for me since he is interested in learning about the D clan since he is a D himself.
 
Just accept Oda's writing is too advanced for you already, Jesus Christ.
Modern conventions don't apply to him, 5467 years from now people will analyze this masterpiece and set it as the gold standard of writing for generations to come.
The point of Kid and Law defeating Big Mom?, YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT, IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE.
THE POINT IS

Heavy Metal
He took down the old hag, so everyone sees he is on track. He got a lot but got to cocky. Like luffy was in SA and Marineford. Luffy needed to be broken in all pieces to come back on track.
That’s what is happening to kid right now.
And damn, he will back.
 
Law is relevant to story for me since he is interested in learning about the D clan since he is a D himself.
Kidd was interested in the Saul yet he will never meet him
Drake is the captain of SWORD yet he's dead

The Strawhats are the ones who are gonna find out the D Clan history with Robin making a comment about how Law would have loved to hear this, just like Erwin from AOT
