Barry literally went on vacation because his future sight is so powerful he saw that the World Government was going to Nuke the household of Tekking for talking about [REDACTED]
Kuma's a really fascinating character because he's got so many different things going on, so many details and a whole lot of questions but very few answers. I'm really interested to see how his whole story comes together.
I'm really excited to see Kuma. The *real* Kuma, because I don't think we've ever seen him before. He's always been one of the most fascinating One Piece characters for me.
In Thriller Bark, he literally said this is the last time you’ll ever see “me”. “You and I will never meet again” were is real words though. That was like a cyborg of the real kuma, with his real self intact and he really used his emotions and non clouded judgement to allow zoro to save luffy.
@@battlericky17 At that point he was already a cyborg. There was at least something done to him so I want to see what he was like when the revolutionaries knew him. Iva showed a picture used in this very thumbnail of a smiling Kuma, a version we have only seen again in the bonney flashback wherein he has glasses! I wanna see the REAL Kuma
Personally I think Kuma and BB are the same race and it's not been revealed yet but will be this arc Looking at Kuma's story from the perspective of him not needing to sleep like BB just makes so much sense -Why he'd be such a valuable slave to the Celestial Dragons that there's a wait list for him -How he managed to single handedly defend the Thousand Sunny for 2 years -Why they'd want clones of him specifically first over any other Warlord for the Pacifistas, untiring soldiers It would also make showing the recent BB stuff make sense because we're going to get the secret to his body this arc And "Connie" being Kuma's mother doesn't make much sense based on her appearance, it would make more sense if she was Bonnie's MATERIAL grandmother the mother of Kuma's wife and she could have been royalty Kuma married into explaining his lack of princely-ness as a child
I was thinking something similar. I think Kuma being poor when he was young gives the impression that he studied and then was very useful to the kingdom. This lead him to marry into royalty. Him being poor wanted to change the sistem, this thought didn't go as well. I think it's a sort of thing where he distributed wealth from rich to poor. Or the Marie's made him put in laws to sabotage him (that's where the Marine hate comes from) that made his kingdom revolt agent's him
Last thing Kuma said to Luffy at Sabaody was "We will never see each other again" So, I think there is no possible way to bring him back cause he would have known someday his body will end up with the Revolutionarys again and Dragon would try anything but it's just impossible.
Nah not necesarly, this is the first pacifista project so maybe Kuma just thought he would be gone forever but Vegapunk will find a way to bring his memory back
I think Seraphim Kuma is actual Kuma. Vegapunk probably wouldn't completely erase Kuma, so basically transplanted him into the Seraphim secretly. Thats also why its acting weirdly.
@@claribelmartinez6750 Could be he became the tyrant by taking over the kingdom but did it to give the people a better life. The overthrown leaders would surely paint him as a tyrant after.
@@alfredhinton8792 I also think his ability shown in taking over the kingdom gave him leverage to negotiate with the world government to not be executed. Showed his power in the hostile takeover, made them think they could use him rather than destroy him.
These revelations add so much more weight to Kuma's words about the strawhats, when Zoro takes Luffy's pain. Specifically about how what great friends he has. Attributing it to being his son. Both having strong allies willing to sacrifice their lives and ambitions for their leader and crew.
Kuma is going for the platinum. He was royalty, pirate, with marines, with revolutionaries, with WG, and with vegapunk. Is there any other faction he wasn't a part of? Maybe underworld but i think he even dabbled in that world a bit too as a pirate/revolutionary.
Kuma being presumed as a scientist made me think what is he's specialty would be; and it hit me like a truck "GEOGRAPHY IS EVERYTHING", tying back when he looks at His Bible up before sending Perona to Kuraigana Island. Kuma and Tekking101 as the Lead Geographers in One Piece.
One thing that I thought about while listening to the end of the video is that bonnie could be Kuma's adoptive daughter or something of the sort. It's not something that would be unprecedented in One Piece considering that Luffy called Ace his brother making us think that they were related by blood when they were not. Also thinking more about it I realized that it wouldn't make sense since when Bonnie transforms into her older self that she resembles queen Connie which would mean that Connie is most likely Bonnies grandma. So what if Connie had a daughter that had a child (in this case Bonnie) and then she ended up dying (mother's in One Piece don't have a good track record of being alive). After that, we have Kuma who started becoming more important in the Sorbet kingdom like Ninomiya did when he was alive. Once he started getting a lot of recognition then the king and queen at the time might have decided to take him in and make him the king of the kingdom because it seemed like he would make a better king. That is when he took Bonnie in and she became his adoptive daughter. This would solve any problems related to Bonnie not being of the special race that Kuma is (Lunarian or otherwise) and her not even specifying if she is part of said race. At the end of the day this is all speculation and it could just be flat out wrong LMAO
Kuma and King are also the same age and King is Lunarian which Kuma might be as well. They were both experimented or at least studied by Vegapunk and Kuma was even fully modified. And we saw a seraph Kuma in this arc so I'm expecting some Lunarian lore from Vegapunk later on.
I really like the theory of Vivi getting the Paw-Paw Fruit, and with her possibly being with the revolutionary Sabo at the moment (Sabo wanted Ace's Fruit to honour him, so wouldn't it make sense for him to want to give Kuma's Fruit to someone aswell?). So I think Kuma probably has to die, sadly.
I think we will find out that Kuma was an actual tyrant, or more so Kuma viewed his actions in that way at some point even if what he did wasn't really that bad or necessarily his fault. Just some event that he feels he needs to repent for which is why he was willing to go through such drastic actions in the first place.
I like how tekking said "we overthrown the old king, he sucked, who should be the new king?! that guy! you should be the new king, you're a nice guy!" as a joke, when it was exactly what happened with Dalton...
It is possible that Kuma married into royalty, so Bonnie is still the princess because she's connected by her maternal side, much like Dressrosa had Rebecca, but her mother left the throne due to marrying Kyros(and thinking the citizens wouldn't accept him as king), but it didn't disqualify her as princess after everything was settled back. Vivi is also the next in line so whoever she marries would become king. Also Sterry, Sabo's adoptive brother, was married into royalty since Sterry was only adopted into nobility, so rising up the ranks to marry royalty is possible. Kuma and Bonnie are possibly of a special race given their strength but it's also possible that it was Vega Punk that Bonnie was referring to. However, I'm more inclined to believe it's Kuma as Big Mom did mention a 3rd missing race, that was lost to time excluding giants and Lunarians..
Also I´d guess that Kumas size is what sigifies his special race status, but "Connie" just looked like a normal human, so the real Connie might be his mother in law, while Bonney didn´t inherit the size.
Seeing Kuma smile will always shock me. Like people in OP be saying man he used to have a big smile and here I am thinking, "We talking about the same person right"?
I get the feel that the whole mission of Kuma was to recruit and send message to Vegaunk. I get the impresión that Vegapunk and Dragon are comunicating (through Kuma-bot) the same way that Vegapunk and the others bodies, without the need of a Den Den Mushi,
Looking at young kuma, his head is shaved, and the shaved area is gray, this could mean his hair was dark when he was young, or it was a light gray/white indicating his lunarian lineage!!
I like the idea that you tried making Urouge taller to start the idea that he might be related to Kuma, but didn't go with the robotic idea that Kuma had additional parts after being modified. :) I think it is a stretch though since Connie and Bonney both don't resmeble Urouge, but I do like the Kuma and Urouge link.
I recall that Franky was the first person to see Kuma and upon seeing Franky he stumbled off with some difficulty since he was apparently damaged during those two years.
It’s interesting how the the island imu blew up with the death laser (allegedly) also had a rebellion against its king. What if the sorbet kingdom was trying to uprise against the WG and Kuma found out the truth somehow and made it look like they were rebelling against him
Also I wonder if there's anything on the relation of Kuma and Dofflamingo, they seemed to have been paired a lot before the timeskip and Doffy was the one to talk about Kuma's transportation during Marineford.
They both were the most connected to the WG of the Warlords. Doflamingo was a former celestial dragon which explains his increased insight into WG matters including Kuma's mind erasure. Kuma was a cyborg at the command of the WG with little autonomy over his actions even before the full wipe.
the guesstimate is Kuma was taken in by The World Government by 15 years ago, but was already working with Dragon and Vegapunk by 20 years ago. (24 years ago was when Bonney was born, Roger's execution, and when MADs broke up, so it can't be before then. Also, Luffy is almost 20, Dragon may have been living a double-life up until that point... (Would Kuma know who Luffy's mom is?). The Warlord system became a thing around 13-15 years ago, and Kuma was seen at the Gray Terminal 12 years ago already with some robot modifications.)
Theres Greenland sharks roaming the frozen dark depths that are over 400 years old... Could you imagine roaming around in dark frozen water for over 400 years.
There's also the OTHER reading of Ninokin to consider. "Ni no Kin" which means...2 gold or gold of two. Could the TWO Piece be real? But, if I had to guess, Kuma's a "tyrant" because he got rid of a "rightful" Celestial Dragon or something.
I can see potential tragic backstory of kuma and dragon. What if kuma was dragon's best friend bcs he has the same view to the world govt and sorbet kindom was the first step of dragon revolutionary journey with his "first mate" kuma. The plan that makes kuma to be a pacifista was denied by dragon back then bcs he will lose his best friend. After some story finally dragon agreed but kept it secret from other RA officers. After all things about that plan is revealed, every officer of RA were mad of dragon making kuma did this "sacrifice" but actually dragon was the one who hurts the most about it and he will start to cry.
sharing my thoughts at 9:30 sp I don't know if this is adressed later in the video but... The word tyrant is one of those words where everyone knows the wrong definition. A tyrant is not defined by being a cruel and oppressive rule. A tyrant is defined by being an "illegal" ruler. In most monarchies, that comes down to a ruler who was not descended from the previous king. It may be a conqueror from some other land who seized power. It may be a leader of an uprising who threw out the previous king. Many possibilities. So with that in mind, Kuma being born as a peasant, and through his hard work obtaining notoriety and somewhere down the line ending up as king of the country as a benevolent ruler is 100% coherent with him being called a "tyrant". Also, the tenryuobito do NOT want to see stories about lower-class people climbing the ranks up to royalty. So obiously, they made sure to spin their own story about all this.
I have a geography theory I think we've seen "Winner Island" before not in the main story but in the Ace light novel drawn by Boichi in chapter 4 of the novel Whitebeard and Ace are on a random Island where they have a duel and their fight was decided in a tie quote "And so the victor was decided, but not one person truly lost on that day." and we get to see an establishing shot of the island after the battle. Now cut to chapters 1063 and 1064 respectively I take a look at the Blackbeard V Law fight and I notice the cliffside high shores, and the forests surrounding dividing the beach from the mountain range they look similar if you take a long detailed look.
Kuma and Blackbeard are the same race. Both can have multiple souls living inside of them. That’s why he has so many conflicting stories. AND…it’s very possible that Big Mom is also of the same race. Not necessarily blood related, but at least the same race.
That actually makes a lot of sense, I had the same idea regarding Kuma and BB but Big Mom also could potentially fit I wouldn't say it's confirmed but it would give the BB focused chapters a narrative purpose because this is the arc we find out what makes his body special
It seems like, when you add this extra book, he seems to be a king who values wisdom as many of the books of the bible (as it is many books in one) are known as holding wisdom.
"are u hisoka?" i really felt bad for the mafia kids. at least one guy was smart enough to gauge hisokas danger level and is trying to let him loose on the troupe.
Maybe Kumas special race can create and interact with light. It could explain the lazer beams that Kuma and the pacifistias use and maybe the gloves that atlas uses were modeled off kumas dna
Hey love your channel I think I might have stumbled across something that might have something to do with the will of d so I was just looking up pirate terms the start with the letter d and I came across a peculiar phrase known as "dead reckoning"the definition of dead reckoning kind of plays into the theme of One piece especially with Luffy and also the etymology of the term dead reckoning specifically DED the earlier iteration of the word dead that was used for this term... I think the will of D. Is the will of DED... The people that don't rely on the celestials for their navigation through life.... Just like dead reckoning doesn't rely on celestial navigation to get from point A to point B... Hope you actually see this and get what I'm trying to say... Thanks 👍
Does anyone think Luffy will eventually meet Dragon? What if, and it's a BIG IF, the two won't get along in the slightest? In fact, what if Dragon will act antagonistically towards his son? Like "you're too carefree, you don't know the lengths I've gone to in order to make the Revolution's vision a reality!" And Luffy will be like "I don't care about your methods! You're too extreme! I don't even see you as my father!" And Sabo will be caught in the middle. Honestly I could kinda see that happening... Think of the drama!
Maybe he had a kid with big mom? (Bonnie has pink hair and eats ode. That’s big mom genes.) and maybe the world government found out, and couldn’t let it slide. Big mom being a notorious pirate and all…
I was thinking that Kuma must've just married the queen of the kingdom and became the king that way, but the theory with Ninomiya would be way more interesting
Maybe Kuma married into royalty? Conney could be Bonney's maternal grandmother. ...Also, I still think Kuma's hairstyle in that flashback panel to Bonney's youth is eerily reminiscent of Cobra's.
My wild theory is, the real/original/human Kuma is still well and alive, somewhere at Egghead. Then at some point, he will reunite with Bonney. Maybe the cyborg Kuma (pacifista) was just a double made by Vegapunk to deceive the World Goverment. 😁
I personally am not sure if Dragon knew, he never says anything about explaining or anything like that. Ivankov basically just says that he'll talk to him about it. I mean even 2 years form that, Sabo still didn't know what happened to Kuma.
9:48 Being a Princess makes Bonney a Prime Candidate for a temporary partner. Vivi started the trend and ever since we had "princessly" company quite often. Shirahoshi comes to mind as well as Rebecca and Mansherry and even in the two most recent arcs with Reiju and Yamato respectively. (And yes, both are technically princesses even if they probably don't officially bear that title.) They are probably others that I am forgetting right now, but these came to mind off the cuff. And no, I do NOT intend to list every single daughter of Big Mom. Especially given a maximum of four of them had any intention of helping the Strawhats whatsoever. 10:34 Or the discrepancy could be because of the thing that nobody wants to hear -because Oda is a god-level writer that never makes mistakes- Kuma's backstory could simply have been revised in the background. 21:36 Was Lindbergh already Commander of the Revolutionary Army's SB Operations 20 years ago though? I kinda doubt it. He only is in his thirties after all. 32:16 You are connecting people by their age alone? That's reaching at best and utterly ridiculous at worst. Especially as we have confirmed Siblings with extreme height differences. 37:36 Luffy: "So you want a Mystery Narwhal! Shishihi!"
I really hope Urouge plays some role in the Kuma's story. Maybe they aren't related, but I could see The Mad Monk encountering Kuma and nudging him in a more overtly pious direction while they were both younger, hence the bible.
@Tekking101 Another great video, but quick thought, technically wouldn't it have been impossible for Kuma to spy on the celestial dragons for 2 years if he was guarding the Sunny Go that whole time? 🤔

@@carsonspinks1067 i feel you
Personally I think Kuma and BB are the same race and it's not been revealed yet but will be this arc
Looking at Kuma's story from the perspective of him not needing to sleep like BB just makes so much sense
-Why he'd be such a valuable slave to the Celestial Dragons that there's a wait list for him
-How he managed to single handedly defend the Thousand Sunny for 2 years
-Why they'd want clones of him specifically first over any other Warlord for the Pacifistas, untiring soldiers
It would also make showing the recent BB stuff make sense because we're going to get the secret to his body this arc
And "Connie" being Kuma's mother doesn't make much sense based on her appearance, it would make more sense if she was Bonnie's MATERIAL grandmother the mother of Kuma's wife and she could have been royalty Kuma married into explaining his lack of princely-ness as a child
her Material grandmother? as opposed to... her Astral grandmother? her Elemental Grandmother of Water?
Also, I think Kuma's not needing to sleep is fairly well explained by him having been turned into a cyborg
Duval also helped protect the ship
I was thinking something similar. I think Kuma being poor when he was young gives the impression that he studied and then was very useful to the kingdom. This lead him to marry into royalty.

Or the Marie's made him put in laws to sabotage him (that's where the Marine hate comes from) that made his kingdom revolt agent's him
I like the idea that Kuma's "special race" might also be the race of Blackbeard (and may explain to some extent why Blackbeard has a "special body").
A slave that never needs to sleep would make sense as be highly sought after by the celestial dragons
Just keep in mind, Gecko Moria is 100% *normal* human.

After Reading 1097… this needs an update. But maybe we should wait for more chapters…
37:40 Actually, he spent the best part of those 2 years at Sabaody guarding the Sunny, so he's been at Marie Geoise at most for a few months

Hell yeah jacket is back!!!
Fascinating bro 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾

the amount of time I spend re subbing to you is crazy at this point fucking yt
I think Tekking should make history videos called ‘history WAS everything’ as a spin on geography is everything
Thank you for a great video guys
Kuma is such an importand and endearing character. I'll hope we got a fitting flashback of him.
0:40 He got that scar during the big bang. It went off above him and was the only injury he ever sustained

Oh no the jacket is wearing tekking again
Good job on that jacket drip sad that Barry is that very injured but very ok. Okay nice
Wow I’m just realizing that tekking didn’t talk about the new HxH chapter. Idk why but that feels so surprising.
That book Kuma was reading as a kid the ninokin was a creature Mont-d’Or had in his book display.
Vegapunk being able to copy Memories/brains would make sense both for their satellites, as well as for kuma's hope of getting back...
12:36 I didn't realize that either.
The jacket pop goes hard
I remember big mom saying that there were 3 races that were missing from totland lunarian, giants and then another. And you mentioned it

Kuma is a great character, I would like to find out the full back story of
Looking at young kuma, his head is shaved, and the shaved area is gray, this could mean his hair was dark when he was young, or it was a light gray/white indicating his lunarian lineage!!

Thank God someone remember
I recall that Franky was the first person to see Kuma and upon seeing Franky he stumbled off with some difficulty since he was apparently damaged during those two years.

I haven't heard that song in forever tekking 😂
Also I wonder if there's anything on the relation of Kuma and Dofflamingo, they seemed to have been paired a lot before the timeskip and Doffy was the one to talk about Kuma's transportation during Marineford.
They both were the most connected to the WG of the Warlords. Doflamingo was a former celestial dragon which explains his increased insight into WG matters including Kuma's mind erasure. Kuma was a cyborg at the command of the WG with little autonomy over his actions even before the full wipe.
the guesstimate is Kuma was taken in by The World Government by 15 years ago, but was already working with Dragon and Vegapunk by 20 years ago.
(24 years ago was when Bonney was born, Roger's execution, and when MADs broke up, so it can't be before then. Also, Luffy is almost 20, Dragon may have been living a double-life up until that point... (Would Kuma know who Luffy's mom is?). The Warlord system became a thing around 13-15 years ago, and Kuma was seen at the Gray Terminal 12 years ago already with some robot modifications.)
Kuma is the Johnny Sins of One Piece, he had every job/title.
16:46 I mean, that is how Dalton became King of Drum/the Sakura kingdom. Why not Kuma and the Sorbet kingdom?
Theres Greenland sharks roaming the frozen dark depths that are over 400 years old... Could you imagine roaming around in dark frozen water for over 400 years.
Judging by his childhood pic, Kuma is likely a peasant who married into the royal family.
This smacks of the whole Kyros/Scarlett thing in Dressrosa.
There's also the OTHER reading of Ninokin to consider. "Ni no Kin" which means...2 gold or gold of two. Could the TWO Piece be real?
But, if I had to guess, Kuma's a "tyrant" because he got rid of a "rightful" Celestial Dragon or something.
I can see potential tragic backstory of kuma and dragon. What if kuma was dragon's best friend bcs he has the same view to the world govt and sorbet kindom was the first step of dragon revolutionary journey with his "first mate" kuma.
The plan that makes kuma to be a pacifista was denied by dragon back then bcs he will lose his best friend. After some story finally dragon agreed but kept it secret from other RA officers.
After all things about that plan is revealed, every officer of RA were mad of dragon making kuma did this "sacrifice" but actually dragon was the one who hurts the most about it and he will start to cry.
"Aaand I miscounted"🤣🤣 idk why that made me laugh so much
Maybe he's a Third eye? Pudding's eye was indistinguishable when closed.
Hello from 🇸🇬
sharing my thoughts at 9:30 sp I don't know if this is adressed later in the video but... The word tyrant is one of those words where everyone knows the wrong definition. A tyrant is not defined by being a cruel and oppressive rule. A tyrant is defined by being an "illegal" ruler. In most monarchies, that comes down to a ruler who was not descended from the previous king. It may be a conqueror from some other land who seized power. It may be a leader of an uprising who threw out the previous king. Many possibilities.
So with that in mind, Kuma being born as a peasant, and through his hard work obtaining notoriety and somewhere down the line ending up as king of the country as a benevolent ruler is 100% coherent with him being called a "tyrant".
Also, the tenryuobito do NOT want to see stories about lower-class people climbing the ranks up to royalty. So obiously, they made sure to spin their own story about all this.
I have a geography theory I think we've seen "Winner Island" before not in the main story but in the Ace light novel drawn by Boichi in chapter 4 of the novel Whitebeard and Ace are on a random Island where they have a duel and their fight was decided in a tie quote "And so the victor was decided, but not one person truly lost on that day." and we get to see an establishing shot of the island after the battle. Now cut to chapters 1063 and 1064 respectively I take a look at the Blackbeard V Law fight and I notice the cliffside high shores, and the forests surrounding dividing the beach from the mountain range they look similar if you take a long detailed look.
I just finished watching cyberpunk edgerunners, I wonder if there are any side effects to kuma's transition into a fully mechanical cyborg
Kuma and Blackbeard are the same race. Both can have multiple souls living inside of them. That’s why he has so many conflicting stories. AND…it’s very possible that Big Mom is also of the same race. Not necessarily blood related, but at least the same race.
Highly unlikely,but gotdamn that's a cool ass theory . Props to your mind
That actually makes a lot of sense, I had the same idea regarding Kuma and BB but Big Mom also could potentially fit
I wouldn't say it's confirmed but it would give the BB focused chapters a narrative purpose because this is the arc we find out what makes his body special
@@strawhatshinigami9190 nah that is dumb as hell.
It seems like, when you add this extra book, he seems to be a king who values wisdom as many of the books of the bible (as it is many books in one) are known as holding wisdom.
Barry is what collided with the primordial earth and his piece of head is what went to form the moon.
"are u hisoka?" i really felt bad for the mafia kids. at least one guy was smart enough to gauge hisokas danger level and is trying to let him loose on the troupe.
I thogyht it was bartholomeo video i was like FINALLY
Urouge fought a Pacifista in Sabaody. I feel like he would of been shocked about the fact that the Pacifista looked like Kuma
Maybe Kumas special race can create and interact with light. It could explain the lazer beams that Kuma and the pacifistias use and maybe the gloves that atlas uses were modeled off kumas dna
Mention the blanket octopus it's really cool
Hey love your channel I think I might have stumbled across something that might have something to do with the will of d so I was just looking up pirate terms the start with the letter d and I came across a peculiar phrase known as "dead reckoning"the definition of dead reckoning kind of plays into the theme of One piece especially with Luffy and also the etymology of the term dead reckoning specifically DED the earlier iteration of the word dead that was used for this term... I think the will of D. Is the will of DED... The people that don't rely on the celestials for their navigation through life.... Just like dead reckoning doesn't rely on celestial navigation to get from point A to point B... Hope you actually see this and get what I'm trying to say... Thanks 👍
Does anyone think Luffy will eventually meet Dragon? What if, and it's a BIG IF, the two won't get along in the slightest? In fact, what if Dragon will act antagonistically towards his son? Like "you're too carefree, you don't know the lengths I've gone to in order to make the Revolution's vision a reality!" And Luffy will be like "I don't care about your methods! You're too extreme! I don't even see you as my father!" And Sabo will be caught in the middle. Honestly I could kinda see that happening... Think of the drama!
Maybe he had a kid with big mom? (Bonnie has pink hair and eats ode. That’s big mom genes.) and maybe the world government found out, and couldn’t let it slide. Big mom being a notorious pirate and all…
I was thinking that Kuma must've just married the queen of the kingdom and became the king that way, but the theory with Ninomiya would be way more interesting
Maybe Kuma married into royalty? Conney could be Bonney's maternal grandmother. ...Also, I still think Kuma's hairstyle in that flashback panel to Bonney's youth is eerily reminiscent of Cobra's.
So Kuma married Conney's daughter princess Jewerly Donney and they got a daughter named Bonney?
I hope franky mentions something about what Kuma did for them
Edit: I MEANT PROTECTING THE SUNNY NOT THE OTHER THING
My wild theory is, the real/original/human Kuma is still well and alive, somewhere at Egghead. Then at some point, he will reunite with Bonney. Maybe the cyborg Kuma (pacifista) was just a double made by Vegapunk to deceive the World Goverment. 😁
I personally am not sure if Dragon knew, he never says anything about explaining or anything like that. Ivankov basically just says that he'll talk to him about it. I mean even 2 years form that, Sabo still didn't know what happened to Kuma.
9:48 Being a Princess makes Bonney a Prime Candidate for a temporary partner. Vivi started the trend and ever since we had "princessly" company quite often.
Shirahoshi comes to mind as well as Rebecca and Mansherry and even in the two most recent arcs with Reiju and Yamato respectively. (And yes, both are technically princesses even if they probably don't officially bear that title.) They are probably others that I am forgetting right now, but these came to mind off the cuff. And no, I do NOT intend to list every single daughter of Big Mom. Especially given a maximum of four of them had any intention of helping the Strawhats whatsoever.
10:34 Or the discrepancy could be because of the thing that nobody wants to hear -because Oda is a god-level writer that never makes mistakes- Kuma's backstory could simply have been revised in the background.
21:36 Was Lindbergh already Commander of the Revolutionary Army's SB Operations 20 years ago though? I kinda doubt it. He only is in his thirties after all.
32:16 You are connecting people by their age alone? That's reaching at best and utterly ridiculous at worst. Especially as we have confirmed Siblings with extreme height differences.
37:36 Luffy: "So you want a Mystery Narwhal! Shishihi!"
I really hope Urouge plays some role in the Kuma's story. Maybe they aren't related, but I could see The Mad Monk encountering Kuma and nudging him in a more overtly pious direction while they were both younger, hence the bible.
Your camera is getting weird tekko :( the fps is hurting my eyes! Do we need to riot against spectrum?
@Tekking101 Another great video, but quick thought, technically wouldn't it have been impossible for Kuma to spy on the celestial dragons for 2 years if he was guarding the Sunny Go that whole time? 🤔
I think Cezar the recently crown king of the Illusia Kingdom could also be of this special race like Kuma
