i remember how i was crying buckets during Brook's flashback while my late parrot stared in bewilderment..
and dw i doubt Aramaki is a coward..he's willing to take luffy's head and honestly he doesn't seem to be trying hard or any intermediate effort at all..I'm betting on a tactical retreat with sakazuki's involvement or just with a better rationale.
Ah man, sorry to hear you lost your parrot, they are one of my favourite animals, I love them so much!
Yeah a tactical retreat sounds a lot better, I mean we don't know what Blackbeard was after too and what happened with that, he was gonna try get ahead of the Marines with that too? There's also the fallout with the Marines vs the Warlords and if they used the SSG vs them and if that backfired on them too.
Green Bull would listen to Akainu if he tells him to retreat as he's a fanboy of his ofc, so I'm guessing he tells Akainu he sees Shanks or something else happens to make him retreat.
I'm wondering if the SHs, Law, Kid etc are even going to get to see and meet Green Bull at this rate but if Luffy meets him especially, hes gonna clown him extremely hard especially with Gear 5th now too.
