Questions & Mysteries What do you guys think of this? a fourway battle
- Thread starter Tai long
- Start date
Yes, Ive made 2 separate threads on this ( 3 if you consider my Akainu/Blackbeard one as well)

I entirely believe that post Egghead (or Elbaf), Oda cannot afford providing individual arcs for the remaining Yonko and Marines. All of this will escalate into a giant war that will:
- Have everyone match against 2-3 opponents, not just one
- Those opponents will face each other as well
- And the last groups standing (I.e. Luffy and someone else) will fight at LT.
This may or may include Imu and the WG, because I think its important that the Seraphim pose viable threats to more than just the crew or RA in the end, but all of the allies that will eventually be involved in the endgame. But, that entity may be too big to include here.
Akainu, Shanks, Blackbeard and Luffy (and maybe CG in the future) all have 9-10 members with fleets. Oda doesnt have to go ham including countless allies and kingdoms at that point, just focus on them and the Burned Man (if he's not tied to Elbaf)

The issue is thats exactly what he keeps implying in all of his updates to the fanbase.
I argue the finale side of it can last way longer and Oda doesnt need to worry about shit lasting hundreds of chapters at that point because he got to the big war he's wanted to draw for 25 years.
This is why I believe Kizaru and whoever Elbaf's villain is (Burned Man, Rocks, Loki, Elbaf, whatever) are the last "orthodox" villains in the series. After this, its just a massive, multi arc, multi island war until the end.

The issue is quite literally everyone has a connection to multiple people with their own agendas. Ive broken it down before but here:
- Luffy has ties to Shanks, Blackbeard and Akainu, for completely different reasons. He is bound to encounter all 3. Then Zoro to Mihawk. Then the entire concept of him and Imu potentially.
- Akainu plans on fighting on all fronts, and who knows what his stance will be after Kizaru. He and Luffy are pretty much destined to clash because of Ace. Ryokugyuu told Shanks its not "time yet for them to fight", which suggests the Marines intend to fight the RHP
- The RHP (rather Shanks) intends on finding Blackbeard AND going after Luffy's fleet members AND meeting Luffy. Shanks has clear ties to the Gorosei and WG.
- Blackbeard obviously intends on encountering Shanks and Luffy. Kuzan still has a lingering plot thread that may tie back to Akainu and the Marines.
- CG's current narrative thread is the 4th RP/One Piece, but Mihawk has direct ties to Shanks. They also seem to be the connective thread to all former Shichibukai (maybe).
- The WG plans on utilizing the Seraphim to combat the Yonko, this is something stated by Kaido. They are also mobilizing the God Knights for the RA. They are also using some massive weapon to destroy whole countries
- The RA obviously has ties to Luffy and the WG.
When you think of it this way, its hard to see how Oda resolves one faction without resolving at least 1 or 2 of the others. Like Kizaru alone is easy because his real narrative threads where with Vegapunk and Sentoumaru.

As others have said, I think that’s far too much of a clusterfuck for Oda to hope to handle.
Maybe it could be the complete opposite of Wano and Oda ends up pleasantly surprising me beyond expectation, but I’ve lost that level of optimism.
I still think it best for the pirates to resolve things between themselves with other factions coming in afterwards.
