Questions & Mysteries Who is the 9th Scabbard?
- Thread starter Shiroyru

I’m not buying the triple cross routine for Kanjuro just yet, so...
Izo can probably lay a stronger claim to being a Scabbard than Shinobu since he was one of the original retainers, but he’s been a member of the Whitebeard family longer than the Kozuki clan by this point. Shinobu came into the organization later than Izo, but she’s filled his absence quite well and is still very loyal to her masters. Doesn’t hurt that she was present at the Scabbards’ sendoff (and also remained in Wano the last two decades), so I’ll pick her over him.

I read it, but I disagree, Sure they may see him and his worth but that's a future Momo, not the Momo we have right now... If Oda decides to do a twist and actually had a talk with Kanjuro and changed his mind, that would bring a whole new light to me for him.
As for you're 2nd paragraph, I find that irrelevant as I can talk about my own thoughts as well, even if it's been repeated.

Yeah, seems like you and I disagree on a lot of things. I’ve seen some people posit that Kanjuro could be triple crossing Orochi, in which case a forceful reminder of what Oden did for him and the time they all spent together may have some sort of impact coming from the guy’s son.
Feel free to not agree on this part either, but I’ve wondered in the past if Toki’s DF powers only work for so long, and anyone she uses them on (other than herself) will experience some sort of biological catching up after a trip through time. It would augur poorly for Kin’emon, Raizo, and Kiku to suddenly age 20 years in an instant, but the positive effects would be two-pronged in that Kanjuro would also gain two decades of deleterious effects on his body/mind AND Momo would suddenly be 28, bigger, more powerful, and capable of more rational thinking than he is now. Before you eviscerate this as you are often wont to do, know that it’s just a theory based on little concrete evidence, not something I’m adamant will happen.
