I can't imagine the flashback ending this next chapter, so at minimum it'd be the one after, which officially releases January 4th.
Since there's a Jump break right before there's a chance we could get early leaks and have the chapter technically before the new year, but officially it won't be until 2026.

He isn't gonna get Shirahoshi cuz Loki will save her. But hes probably getting Pluton.

oda is gathering up a bunch of people he wants to be part of laugh tale. and those that would not be there on their own accord end up there through either blackbeard or buggy.

>>284513029
maybe. I don't think that many people will go there apart from Luffy's core crew.
Yamato is most likely going to tag along cuz of the Oden parallels tho.

I was talking about luffy's allies tho, not other factions.

ofc all of the yonko crews will head there. I'm expecting an arc where all 4 of them meet each other. If not laugh tale, then maybe the arc before that like lodestar or something.

Hint status?

>>284513304
Loki picks up Ragnir

Shanks and Gaban probably arrive to capture Loki after Loki has already left the scene. Maybe one of them goes to deal with the intruder who was after the devil fruit.

Third hint is likely cover page related.

Next two chapters will be the last of the flashback. Harald will explain to Loki what happened and that he was tricked by Imu. Imu will get pissed about Harald telling them and will order him to kill those that know about his existence. Harald will spike Jarul through the skull with his sword. Loki and Harald will fight, Loki asking how he can break this and Harald telling him he can't, the only way to get him to stop is to kill him. Loki will eat the "legendary fruit of Elbaf" and kills Harald. Then he sets sail to try to get revenge on Imu. Shanks stops him and ties him up with Sea Prism chains, while telling him that Imu is a foe beyond them and he needs to cool down and wait for the right time. Loki calls him a coward for not wishing to fight against the devil.

I think it's the opposite, BB won't get Pluton because Yamato will protect it, but BB will get Shirahoshi, which will be another reason for Loki to join the crew, because they won't let him get away with it, FI being Strawhat territory and all.

In truth one must ask themselves at some point in their lives for what purpose do they live for? Many have come to a wide range of answers while others ignore it and claim it pointless or vapid to ask. In truth I believe finding purpose matters only that it fulfills a feeling/desire and so whatever conclusion drawn upon is valid if it leaves the person satisfied. Some people unfortunately are never to fill that hole and are left in a terrible condition of aimlessness and dissatisfaction with their lives. I ask you have you found said filled the hole or are you a wanderer? Does your worship of carrot bring you the satisfaction in life for if so I could never I'm good consciousness ask a man to dig up that hole.

Its funny how people mock CHADby when he's literally the only character in Nepo Piece who 1) worked his ass off for becoming swole and 2) was an actual normie without some super speshul bloodline or Devil Fruit carrying his ass. People hate on Koby because his existence exposes people like Luffy as FRAUDS as they are. Imagine being the FATED REINCARNATION OF NIKA with his super awesome Devil Fruit, bloodline of D and Garp and getting completely mogged by some loser kid who reaches level it took you over 10 years in couple of months just because he had the drive to actually work for his dream

Regarding Straw Hat Nepo Baby allegations:
>Luffy
Ultimate Nepo baby. Comes from the D. Bloodline, father is infamous terrorist, grandpa is famous Marine, his father figure is Yonkou who was part of Pirate King's Crew and entrusted his hat to him, he ate Nika's fruit and is the prophesized savior, his adopted brother was Pirate King's son and Whitebeard's adopted son. Luffy is connected to everyone who matters in some form and is actually extremely tragic case since he is a man who wants to be the "most free man in the world" yet is unable to ever become that because of his destiny
>Zoro
Zorofags like to argue that Zoro is self-made man, but that was never true. While Zoro didn't use to have special bloodline until Wano, he always benefited from his relationship with Kuina which got him privileged treatment from his first Sensei from the start. While Zoro's case is nowhere near as bad as Luffy or Usopp's, he's bonafide Nepo hat.
>Nami
Only member of the Straw Hats who hasn't had any Nepo benefits (so far). Given how Oda likes to do things, I'm sure we will find out that Nami comes from some special bloodline or has some special ability before manga ends.
>Usopp
Literal Nepo baby who constantly benefits due to his status as Yasopp's son. If not for his connection to Yasopp, Luffy and him wouldn't have connected to the level they did and without Luffy to carry him Usopp would have died if he ever left Syrup Village
>Sanji
Nepo baby which Sanji himself is aware of and hates. Used to be average normie but had his background retconned into being Prince and genetically modified superhuman who got literal Nepotism from his mother and sister.
>Chopper
Mild case, but still nepo baby who Kureha accepted only because Chopper was Hiruluk's adopted son
>Robin
Unlucky case of Nepotism since she got on to World Government's hit list because of who her mommy was and Robin's desire to earn her approval by becoming Oharan archeologist who had soft spot for her due to her heritage

>worked his ass off for becoming swole
anime filler, not canon.
he’s a nepo baby just for being the only non-Cipher Pol character who knows all six forms of Rokushiki.
he stole Smoker’s AND X-Drake’s spot as Luffy’s honorable marine rival, the former especially mirrored Garp a lot more than SHITby.

>>
>>284518339
>Vivi
Literal Princess who had Nepo benefits from birth, also turns out to be descendant of Founding Families and has Super Special Ancestry. Biggest Nepo Hat right after Luffy.
>Franky
His adopted father was THE best Shipwright who made Pirate King's ship etc. and his adopted brother Iceburg became Water 7's leader and let Franky/Cutty Flam get away with lot of shit because of their connection. Franky is bonafide Nepo Hat
>Brook
Extremely mild case like Chopper's since unless Oda decides to validate all those headcanons about Brook's bloodline being connected to other major players then Brook only benefited from his connection to Laboon. But since this is Oda we are talking about, Brook is bound to have Super Special Background in one form or another
>Jinbei
Filter Fish is somewhat genuine. Humble background and long life in the Fishman ghetto until he hooked up with Fisher Tiger. You can accuse him from benefitting from that connection, but unless Oda decides to make Fisher Tiger his relative, Jinbei actually is the Real Deal

How much is predetermined and how much was actively enforced is going to be important. DBZ just stops caring about consequences after Namek.

Also, narrative and lore are insanely important in One Piece while it's practically optional to enjoy Dragon Ball.

So the hints are:
>Strawhats obscured by mist
>Shanks, Gaban, Buggy
>Marvel's Thor calling his hammer and it hitting someone in the face

So given the second two, the first one is probably the cover page. The second one could possibly mean Shanks and Gaban showed up together, which could imply Shanks had help defeating Loki and explain why Loki calls Shanks a coward. The third one is obviously Loki calling upon Ragnir.

one of the hints is from strong world, the scene where the crew bursts down the doors and confronts Shiki and his crew (everyone has guns too)
>>
>>284522403
It's a different era 20 years later
Now they don't even do cover stories
>>
>>284522480
As much as I want Loki to be the final joiner, this reminds me of when we thought Vivi was going to join and Robin joined instead. Or when we thought Iceberg would join and we got Franky instead. It's too fakeout.

I'm guessing we'll get a joiner and it won't be Loki.

>>
>>284522584
That's implying he's ever gonna have conversations with anything of them besides for comedic shock scenes
As people said the straw hats barely talk to one another anymore
But if anyone he'll get along with it's Usopp who's all about giant shit, warrior culture, and goofing off

>>284522635
>As people said the straw hats barely talk to one another anymore
It's funny because my favorite moments are usually strawhat interactions.
Zoro telling Luffy to shut it, Nami intervening and Sanji telling her to hold up and let Zoro speak (nowadays they only get mad at each other). Franky with anyone, really, guy's awesome, helping Zoro a few times in Wano, challenging Luffy in Dressrosa or when Luffy asked him to eat the mera mera fruit, acting like a goofy guy with the retard trio (Usopp, Chopper and Luffy) but being a normal human being with Nami and Robin. Luffy's serious moments telling the crew what to do, etc.

Luffy already knows black beard is trouble but he can't disagree with him
Even when they meet again he doesn't have the same back and fourth he usually has with other villains, even in this arc when he's about getting to ace before he dies he has some silly moments with characters he's beat up
Luffy deep down knows that blackbeard is achieving his dreams but in a way that would make him sick

Fun fact: At least two different people other than Luffy would have defeated Enel if they had haki. Zoro and Gan Fall.

Canonically due to Oda's retcon about Steel Cutting being advanced armament, Zoro SHOULD have defeated Enel here.

According to Oda's own retcons in the Udon prison arc where Hyogoro explains advanced armament to Luffy, Wano has it's own version of advanced armament called Ryou which allows a swordsman to cut through steel or not cut a piece of paper, according to the will of the sword.

This is the same power that Koushiro taught Zoro, that he used to not cut the palm leaves then proceed to cut through Daz Bones. According to Oda's retcon, Zoro already had advanced Armament in the Daz Bones fight, which was in Alabasta prior to Skypiea.

Logically speaking, Zoro should have defeated Enel when he cut him in half because he had advanced armament.

>point out inconsistency with retcon
>"seething"
Do you just stay on the internet so long you have buzzwords that you can't stop using? Yes, steel cutting being advanced armament is a retcon if the haki system didn't exist yet, armament didn't exist yet, armament as a means to defeat Logia didn't exist yet and Luffy won against two "unbeatable" Logias by using water and rubber when realistically a Doflamingo exec with basic haki could have came in and one tapped them, and there wasn't even any hints that a special hidden ki system existed that could counter logias. Little less saying the powers Oda gave Zoro for steel cutting WAS part of that never hinted at system, and not allowing Zoro to cut Enel after claiming his powers was part of that system which by all logic should have let Zoro cut logias.

It's a retcon.

>>284524550
You think that's strange?
It's implied that Crocodile should know how to use haki himself but never uses it during his fight with Luffy
This plan he's been doing for years could have succeeded had he just used haki
>>
>>284524766
>>284524760
adding on to that, Ace knew all three types of Haki but never used them. It just boils down to the fact that haki wanst introduced until after Alabasta/Skypeia where Oda realized that future Logias were going to be a story issue without some form of counter. Oda is a master of weaving random elements back into the main plot so we can see different events that could tie back into being haki (shanks vs lord of the coast, mantra) before the concept fully existed but Zoro cutting steel is a hole that cant really be patched

>It just boils down to the fact that haki wanst introduced until after Alabasta/Skypeia
AFAIK haki started popping up around Saobody, Amazon Lily, and Marinefold.

Arguably aspects of it partially existed. For example Oda gave "giving people a scare with a glance" a name and used it against the Sea King. Mantras were observation clear cut. Zoro DID have a hidden will power to command what his sword cut. Zoro DID use Breath of all Things to tell where his sword was and know where rocks were going to fall. And Zoro also DID create an illusion with his will power with Asura.

But they weren't all put together in one rule system, didn't counter Logias, couldn't harden weapons or the body, couldn't knock people out with a touch, do internal destruction, be coated for no touch attacks or invisible armors, couldn't do internal destruction, couldn't reject the powers of devil fruits, and advanced conquerors wasn't explained to be what Zoro did with Asura until after he hit Kaido with it.

Like the premise of haki was all there and was enough for Oda to tie some kind of external combat system together other than devil fruits and martial arts powers, but come on it wasn't that well thought out until Saobody at least.

>>
>>284524760
Through retcon, Zoro knew aCoC already since Enel's Lobby (Kaido specifically called Asura advanced CoC).

Zoro literally had advanced CoC and advanced CoA before timeskip and before he even had the regular versions, so I don't think Gaban is referring solely to advanced forms.

>>284525153
Zoro IS that retarded, yes. He regularly doesn't use techniques if he thinks he doesn't need them or thinks that they don't apply for his current situation. Even then, it is still possible that he just simply couldn't replicate it. Didn't he try to cut the barbed wire cloud at one point and couldn't? I know he broke the Iron Cloud sword, but that was him using 108 pound phoenix and that feels different then just hitting it with the sword directly.

There's no good way for Shanks and Gaban to come out clean after this flashback. Either Shanks and Gaban teamed Loki and Shanks stocks just went down. Or Shanks and Gaban helped Loki then locked him up anyways and let everyone on the island think he killed Harald for no reason.

Anon, Loki wasn't captured here. He was captured 8 years later on the seas by Shanks and brought back to Elbaph.

I don't think so personally. I think Oda realized in Egghead that if he just gives everyone CoC it becomes watered down, and if only certain people have CoC it becomes unbalanced and everyone without it becomes useless. Similar to how haki was introduced to make non-devil fruit users able to keep up with devil fruits in the first place.

I'm thinking he realized this in Egghead and used Sanji and Coby to show that the power of fighting with Love for your friends could match the ambition of Conquerors. Be it Sanji blocking and hurting seraphims with Love while Zoro and Luffy struggled despite being advanced conquerors, or Garp throwing a massive island buster punch shown to have conquerors and Coby being a weak vagina until he says something like "If I don't do this all my friends will die" and throws his own island buster punch, leaving Garp laughing.

Love is already a canonical non-haki force in One Piece. Sanji's flames have always been powered by his passion. Garp was already able to hurt Luffy with "love not haki" which Oda directly clarified in an SBS love wasn't haki. And of course Gaban shows up the next arc and says he's a warrior of love and the giants say he was equal to Roger and Rayleigh, both conquerors. And let's not forget Nami hurting Luffy as a "gag" in the same way Garp always hurts Luffy, once even Jinbei mistaking it for CoC.

Egghead in my opinion was all about showing Love could match Conquerors, and it's how Oda is going to keep non-conquerors like Sanji from falling behind without watering down CoC. Also I think there will be other obvious love users like Coby, Urouge, and Gaban.

You're both wrong. They didn't know Luffy had the fruit. "Shanks" told them about a certain pirate then suddenly they felt the need to immediately put all units on Luffy instead of Robin.

It's clear it was actually Shamrock, and he somehow pieced together that it was Luffy who had the Nika fruit. Even Who's Who didn't know why Shanks would want some stupid rubber fruit, meaning there's a likilihood that the world government didn't know at that point and didn't figure it out until Shamrock figured it out and told them.

The real question is why did Shamrock suddenly learn the truth?

They put CP-9 in charge of transporting the fruit, someone higher up knew what it was. In comparison, they sent a bunch of fodder marines to get the Op Op fruit from X Drakes dad which was worth 5 Billion and supposedly all Doffy needed to conquer the world
>>
>>284525481
Maybe it was about inherited wills and not fruits. Luffy inherited the Strawhat Joyboy wears and is a D. and the bloodline of Dragon. Blackbeard is a D and the bloodline of Davy and Rocks. There's also a giant frozen Strawhat in Marijoise.

Maybe Imu is actually seething that they're basically Davy and Joyboy coming back to haunt him.

Too bad Gurneca is a slave and isn't permitted to draw or know about summoning circles which were definitely a part of the story at the time
A few Holy Knights at the end of the Raid and they could have taken out Nika,2 Yonko and like 20 Billion berri worth of pirates, and the Red Poneglpyhs too, and they'd get Wano

>>284526367
Imu sees them all as disposable slaves to be replaced as needed, and clearly doesn't waste time giving them a full briefing on the void century
not to mention, like, you can be the direct subordinate of the pope and still think there's no actual lance of longinus out there capable of harming a god since its not in the secret vault and the last time anyone was allegedly seen wielding it was back in the 11th century

The physical ability difference between One Piece characters and Naruto characters is night and day.

The strongest characters in Naruto with advanced techniques like Tsunade's chakra concentration, Naruto's sage mode, or Guy's 8 gates don't even come close to the base strength of most of these legends. And unlike the Naruto-verse, the strongest One Piece characters all have the durability to beat the fuck out of eachother with their strength and not explode into pieces.

Think about it, Guy went 8 gates and sacrificed himself to reach the level of strength he did, destroying his body in the process. He was beating the fuck out of the strongest ninja in history who was literally soloing the entire verse with just physical strength. He blew that guy apart with his fist and was cracking the ground and creating flames with his hands.

Meanwhile Garp casually cracks entire mountains to dust to train and gets in slugging matches with people that do about as much physical damage, and they throw punches back and forth just casually surviving it. And there's other people with similar feats to him.

The top tiers of One Piece all have strength that dwarves any One Piece character, durability abilities thanks to haki greater than what the Raikage had to use some super strong lightning technique to achieve, invisible shield armor, internal destruction techniques, super speed and the ability to sense techniques (Luffy right out of the timeskip was able to dodge lightbeams, something that end of series Naruto with a god sage mode did against Madara's lightning that everyone was impressed by), faster than eye movements so fast they can turn invisible and stay that way, and more.

If Guy had to sacrifice himself to reach a fraction of what One Piece characters could do in physical strength just to fight Madara who beat the entire ninja world all at once; pretty much every top tier in One Piece would mop the floor with the entire Narutoverse.

Are you retarded? So shamrock/shank know more than them, that is your logic? And they were searching to it for hundred of years yet once it showed up they didn’t do shit. It didn’t matter if they knew about Nika at that point, they were searching for gum gum for hundred of years yet complete silence during water 7?
This is the wg in your mind
>change the fruit name to gum gum
>search for it for hundred of years
>the user finally showed up in front of them
>hey guys. Is this the gum gum fruit we have been searching for, for hundred of years? Should we do something?
>nah, let’s wait for shamrock/shanks

I don't think it's a Devil Fruit.
I think Imu is literally the titular Devil, and the Devil Fruits were either created by them, or were reverse-engineered from them.

You guys fail to realize hell and the underworld are canon in One Piece.

>the DEVIL fruits have always been a thing
>Brook is able to summon souls and call ice from the underworld
>Zoro saw the reaper
>There were Satanists trying to summon Satan in pre-timeskip and Brook appeared instead, inside of a magic circle
>Magic circles also are used to transport the God Knights and Gorosei, the Satanists trying to summon Brook probably were trying to summon a demon
>there's a non-zero chance that Brook was the God Knight leader as Gunko knew him as a child and he lead a battle convoy for a certain kingdom
>the Elbaf mural showed a giant serpent with spines on it's back, and the text called it the Hellfire Serpent
>The horse of fortune has the same spines on it's back as the Serpent
>shortly after the horse appeared, tons of misfortune appeared in Elbaf such as famine, Big Mom going crazy, Loki having cursed eyes, and many other things
>Loki killed the horse for unknown reasons despite being vindicated as a good guy
>Imu's book has a magic circle on it as well
>the strawhats have multiple attacks and forms based on hell such as Robin's devil form, Enma and King of Hell, Chill of the Underworld
>Sabo pointed out that Imu and the Gorosei were demons and the top of the redline was hell
>the serpent is confirmed the redline
>Saturn is another name for Satan
>Lilith was the first wife of Adam before Eve, and rebelled to become a demon (think Lili, Adam Tree, Eve tree)
>the Elbaf mural also specifically mentioned the forest god taming the demons

It's clear that hell is a real place and the serpent is from there, Imu's book is likely from there, and the Satanist Brook was summoned by knows something about it. The horse was likely from hell too and causing all the curses but Loki got the blame, and Loki probably realized the horse was the curse because of his special eyes causing him to kill it to save Elbaf.

I want another Revery type arc, partly because I think it would be funny to get back to the Strawhats only to leave them for another POV immediately

>>284526689
Magic doesn't exist in One Piece. Its all devil fruits. Imu's power is devil fruit related.
We are too late in the story for Oda to introduce a brand new fucking power system.
>>
People keep saying what if Blackbeard kills all the CDs but honestly I think it’s more likely to be Akainu. Think about it. He’s already pissed off at the CDs and he’s a high strung sociopath as it is. If it’s revealed to him that the CDs engineered whatever his tragic backstory is then he’ll probably finally snap and burn down Mariejois himself.
>>
>>284526689
Also the devil fruits could be considered the forbidden fruit of the Garden of Eden, Imu's garden could be considered said garden under the Eve tree, Lili could be considered the first wife Lilith, and the red line serpent could be the snake whom tempted Eve. Dunno what the Adam tree is.

>>284526712
>magic doesn't exist
What do you think created the devil fruits? The Elbaf mural specifically mentioned gods and demons. The "magic circle" are just pentagram summoning circles. There's cursed swords and ship spirits as well.
>>
>>284526721
Neither of those things will happen. And Akainu is a fucking CD cuck LMAO.
He would happily give his daughter to Charlos whilst preparing lobsters for him. He is a dog.

Koby and SWORD will be the only ones who rebel. Fujitora as well. Kizaru will likely die but the other Admirals will be loyal.

Vegapunk already said that it was dreams. Devil fruits came from the desire of human beings.
Since we know there existed an ancient kingdom in the past, they most likely produced the devil fruits using their technology.
There IS no magic in this setting. Gods and demons don't exist in the One Piece world. Its all fake.
Re-read skypeia arc anon. Anyone who calls themselves a "God" is just an asshole high off their own farts.

The funniest and most ENTER moment in the series would be if it was Urouge coming back from the moon he reached from the balloon terminal because Enel's cover story showed you can use balloons to get to the moon and the flames are lunarian flames he awakened on the moon and he's attacking because he learned the truth from the hieroglyphs on the moon ruins and learned the top of the red line used to belong to the Lunarians so now he wants his ancestral homeland back
>>
>>284526721
if anyone does I'm expecting it to be Imu after declaring that 'in the world of mu, these ones will not be needed' or something
>>
>>284526770
When did I say he wouldn't do anything? He is obviously going to fight either Luffy or Dragon.
You assume that him being loyal to the WG means that he won't do anything which is very silly.
Akainu doesn't like the CDs but he upholds their justice because he believes this is the right way. He is absolute justice personified. He will punish evildoers harshly.
>>
>>284526758
Luffy literally ate the fruit of the sun god and Vegapunk who SPECULATED that they could come from people's dreams even said Luffy has the form of a god.

Oda's saving the strongest encounters for last. Strongest Shichibukai Mihawk, strongest yonkou Shanks, strongest villain Imu, strongest supernova Urouge.
>>
>>284526790
He’s already been doing that in Ohara and Marineford. Since the time skip we’ve seen him brushing up against constant frustrations because of that approach. Just like Kizaru did for his approach to justice in Egghead. There’s no way the admirals stay the same at the end of the series.
>>
>>284526780
I keep seeing you say this, Urougeanon, but do you genuinely believe this shit? Or is this all an elaborate troll?
>>
>>284526821
And yet he still follows them begrudgingly because he believes in their form of justice. Akainu despises pirates and everything piracy stands for.
He won't let a few CD snobs get in his way of holding law and order.
When Vegapunk's message came out, Akainu was mad at him for disturbing the world order. Its pretty clear to me that he intends to curb public unrest so that people calm down upon hearing about the flood.

Do I believe that he's on the moon and probably mixed lunarian? Yes, a Lunarian shows up in the Elbaf mural fighting on Joyboy's side right above Joyboy and it's clearly not going to be King since Zoro lopped his wing off and Urouge is definitely a Nika following monk.

Do I think he's attacking the red line? Probably not but it'd be funner than Blackbeard or the revs again.

The main theory right now is that Urouge was the knight of Birka that lost to Enel, and after Enel destroyed Birka he became a "fallen monk" and started a crew. Him remeeting Enel on the moon and learning the sun god he worships is the one who struck down Enel would be pretty kino.

That one is simple. The Sky People created all the ancient technology on the moon city Birka. It'd make sense that they took it with them to new Birka on the blue planet after leaving to blue planet to the balloon terminal. There's even ancient technology left behind on the moon, the automatons.

This is the only option that makes sense. If Gabban told Sanji he had it, he would have a face so smug, even fujitora with see it. A lot of people are worried about holy-knights and what it means for his power in the end game but M3 is always gonna be M3. Usopp has more to gain from CoC narrative and power wise.
>>
>>284527061
>but M3 is always gonna be M3
Nah. Loki will join the crew and become the second strongest.
>>
>>284527061
We have a few candidates, however none of them have any sort of haki down besides Ussop
Ussop's dream of being a brave warrior of the sea, manifesting in him being the Bravest man in the Grand Line
Chopper wants to become the worlds greatest doctor and cure all disease
Franky wishes to create the greatest ship in the world, capable of completing the Grand Line like the Oro Jackson before it
Nami based off that one comment from Jinbe but that was most likely just a continuation of the gag of Nami beating up Luffy
>>
>>284527109
nami will awaken it due to nerona/figarland genes
>>
>>284527071
That's just cope desu. I hope loki doesn't join cause the second he joins, he's automatically weaker than Sanji
>>284527109
Did gabban meet robin? Oda recently said he'll think about giving her haki. It would be funny if its coc before even getting coa.
>>
>>284527265
What if you're wrong and he does join but Oda makes him stronger than Zoro and Sanji?
The Blackbeard pirates have Kuzan who is abnormally strong despite technically not being Vice Captain (Shiryu). Loki can be the Strawhats' equivalent for that.
Oda can always make an exception for Loki, anon.

Usopp getting it would be useless. Only a handful of characters can coat it so his version would be the basic coc that only knocks out fodders. Strawhats are better off learning normal haki.
>>
>>284519997
No reaction, Pacifistas can do that, Germa tech is far more interesting

Oda Sameface strikes again
>>
>>284527336
um..zorosisters...h-how do we refute this..?!!??
>>
>>284527275
The issue is there's a narrative reason for them to be the strongest after luffy, oda only solidified it with the wings thing. Kuzans crew has no such narrative structuring. For example, impel down shiryu was already stronger than Blackbeard until he got gura gura. There's no point in the story where Zoro was stronger than Luffy. Loki joining and still be stronger can work, be only as a temporary ally like law or oden, if he becomes a full fledged member I bet testicles he'll be weaker than Sanji.

Precedence > feats. There was no world where jinbei is weaker than Sanji and yet by middle point of wano their positions was clear as day
>>
>>284527294
I do doubt Usopp would get it as well. He already has observation haki, he'll probably learn how to use that better but that's it, otherwise giving him coc when his whole shtick is firing his plants at people seems like a weird route, though at the same time I would very much like it if Usopp stopped using those. His fights were much more entertaining when he had to get creative instead of firing <convenient plant that does exactly what's needed at the right time>
>>
How is Sanji so fucking strong anyhow. Luffi has every haki power ever plus a broken df, Zoro literally trains all day, and Sanji... He smokes and cook. I guess he has that exoskeleton hack but seeing how hard the vinsmokes jobbed against big mom it doesn't seem that strong on its own, and it didn't even activate for him during Wano. I don't think we ever see him practice his kicking
