I think they’ll do it Justice, imo all they have to do is make the hype for Kidd for destroying shanks ships and shit so awesome and just pan back to Shanks and make it even hyper that it was just him seeing it about happen and then they just pull out all the stops for Animating Shanks’ Divine Departure
divine departure cutting the damned punk is going to take 45 seconds and be animated like a dbz beam struggle. just like every attack for the last 10 years of the anime. lower your expectations
It will probably take 3 minutes just for Shanks attack. A lot of wind, reaction shots, screams, more wind, more reaction shots, people passing out, more wind, more...
The only thing keeping me from losing all hope is that Law needs to be alive in order to perform the immortality surgery. I don’t think BB can give it to some fodder and expect them to know how to preform it.
One of my favorite things about BlackBeard is how much of a vulture he truly is when it comes to arriving to the aftermath of a fight and taking the spoils so maybe he’ll arrive at the end of Egghead
Shanks just makes me think of John Hamm's character on 30 Rock. He is just so handsome and appealing that most of the time, people just give him things and do things for him without him needing to ask. Everybody loves him without having to do a thing.
Remember, Shanks just got into a conflict with the Straw hat alliance right before this (Bartolomeo burning the red-hair flag) and now he got in a fight with the guy who was 'technically' Luffy's ally at Wano. To the greater public Shanks and Luffy are openly hostile to one another. Them fighting actually makes sense.
After this, I feel Shanks is exactly what Luffy sees as being the King of Pirates is like, cool friendly guy who can do whatever he wants, and protect whoever he wants without anyone being able to stop him. The ultimate freedom. Unsurprising though, considering Shanks is Luffy's inspiration.

Yeah, people being dumb and equating the two situations as the same are just... smh. Like, Kidd had gone all in on a long-range, wide damage attack so having a short range beat down just suddenly appear caught him completely off guard. It'd be heading into the last boss's dungeon and expecting mooks at the front gates only to have the boss drop in from above and just KO your team. Something like that is going to throw you for a loop, especially if you'd already gotten a holy spell ready to throw at the skeletons you thought you were about to face only to have the boss interrupt the cast time and... yeah. It's not about power level, it's about the situation and both side's understanding there-of.
@@7thlittleleopard7 yeah, exactly the way I saw it too. Kid was literally mid-charge of his highest damaging spell, and got spawned on. No way he could have let go of/undone his rail gun quickly enough to properly defend with all his might, let alone react enough to construct a barrier (although we don’t see any visible scars on his chest…)
@@Emerild Yeah, very much a case of the machine gun vs the sniper. One of them is targeting the main danger while the other is aiming for mooks. Of course the sniper wins that duel.
Kuzan makes the most sense as kuzan being away from the battle with black beard and garp would keep kuzan out of suspicion of black beard as he wouldn’t attack garp
It could very well be that Shanks started grinding his power levels after Blackbeard handed his ass to him. There was a time when they were pretty much equals on their respective ships and we only know that the scar happened pre-Luffy meeting, so could very well have been not long after Roger's death, when they were both still very young and not the powerhouses they are now. Hell, I'd say it's probably likely that Blackbeard at that time of life could have kicked Shanks around a bit.
Your missing something Shanks stayed that BB SNUCK UP ON HIM. Don't get me wrong we know black beard has strength currently but back then I'm sure Shanks was still slightly stronger but in Shanks talk with Whitebeard he clearly says how deceptive black beard is and basically caught shanks sleeping and took an opportunity
Man, as a Kidd fan, I'm kinda pleased with the way he seemingly went out. Not everyone succeeds in what they set out to do. I'd love to see him back as a subordinate of Shanks or something, but if this is the last time we see him... then I'm okay with it.
way too much pride to be someone else’s subordinate, i think a good way forward if he’s alive is to just go back to south blue and help the people there
It's crazy that even with so much going on, there's still so much more potential for how much more insane events can take place in this arc. I hadn't even considered seeing Kuzan in this arc but I would absolutely love that.
My theory concerning York's plan to "become" a World Noble is that she's the one that came up with, or manipulated the other 'punks to come up with, the current hierarchy structure for Seraphim command (only the Gorosei can overrule Vegapunk's orders, and it HAS to be in person), in the express goal to lure a Gorosei to Egghead so she could transfer her consciouness into his body.
Shanks seeing multiple outcomes would be interesting. What if his observation doesn’t do well against multiple opponents? If Blackbeard does have multiple personalities, maybe each personality has multiple outcomes/goals in mind, deeply confusing Shanks. A single mistake was needed just to scratch his eye.
So technically, if it was Luffy instead of Kidd on Elbaf, then there would be a happiness party & after that Shanks would be like: "Ok, party's over, now hand me those poneglyph rubbings". Am I right?
S-Snake definitely has humanity inside of her. Even Zoro made a statement saying that S-Hawk was more human than Mihawk. I think Oda is trying to relay to us that the seraphim will gain the power to control themselves later down the line. S-Shark has been completely silent and obedient, which is kinda like how Jimbei would be as a child im assuming. They are clones of people and to me they take after the original.
I think it would be fitting Luffy freed the seraphim from the control of everything and the world government loses ANOTHER source of power after losing the warlords
It definitely makes sense for the seraph boa considering that boa hancock is a conqueror after all. She never followed the gov’t’s orders until that one time it benefited her.
I find it interesting that Blackbeard wanted to make a name for himself by targeting Luffy & Caribou was trying to do the same! Maybe he was trying to finish off what a certain someone had started
Picture Shanke and Mihawk engaged in combat, where they solely rely on their ability to see into the future to outdo each other. They stand their ground and shift in and out of future sight until they eventually become fatigued and decide to call it a draw. This was the battle that Whitebeard had alluded to, as he too possessed future sight and could perceive their movements even though they were motionless.
In retrospect it makes so much sense that the hostage-agents haven't gotten any food in days or even weeks, because York would have kept all the food for her self (even if she intended to feed them at any point I don't think she would've been able to resist the urge).
Blackbeard been making so many big moves this arc, i'm also still holding onto the theory that BB is a former experiment of vegapunk mabye he's Rocks' clone
I low-key think the Blackbeard ship is Law somehow having used his abilities to first break his own ship and then use the fruit to ship-swap and sail away to safety
There was a very good reddit post recently, about "The shock heard around the world" being an Ursus Shock from Kuma, spreading his memories to everyone on the planet. It might be a theory worth indulging.
Shanks may be the final boss but it’s not as the villain role. If anything it’s allowing the story to go full circle. He’s the final test to see if Luffy can be king.
My coworker threw out a theory in regards to Blackbeard having Law's fruit. In that Blackbeard knows about the immortality operation, get's Law's fruit, forces a lackey to do it, gets the fruit back, and eats it anyway.
I don't think there's a powerscaling issue. I think people keep thinking that the emperor's stats are all the same. Kaido - high attack max defense Big Mom - high special attack max defense Shanks - max attack (defensive stats unknown but if I had to guess I'd say he dodges/parries but if he gets hit he could be KO'd) Blackbeard - max special attack mid/low defense (only going based on older fights where he was getting hit and KO'd incap or in a lot of pain could have leveled up) The way I look at it they probably all had the same amount of stats but where they put them is very different. Both Big Mom and Kaido literally face tanked every attack sent at them (aside from like 1-2 dodges) they were so unconcerned with battle because they knew their durability was so high. I think Shanks is someone who ends fights in one hit. No Goku I'm gonna slowly build... just oh you wanna fight? ONE PUNCH! end which is why he has max attack
Maybe there’s a possibility if the original Warlord that was cloned if they had conquerors haki their seraphim would also gain the ability to unlock it? Meaning they can break the hold on the commands? Because S-Snake seems to be just playing a game, it doesn’t seem like she’s under control like the other ones.
Katarina's collecting the heads of beautiful girls kind of screams a Nami opponent to me. I prefer Robin but pretty sure Oda canonically wants Katarina to think Nami is the pretty one. Robin's too strong but the ties to Ohara / etc do open a door to York being a real antagonist to Robin's entire story.
Nami doesn't need Blackbeard to have a new person join in order for her to get a fight. Remember, the Blackbeard Pirates already outnumber the Straw Hats when it comes to the upper echelons of their crews. So if York joins BB as a Titanic Captain, then Luffy would need 2 additional Straw Hat Crew Members if the purpose is for them to all get 1v1 matchups.
I just realized the gluttonous York resembles Angelica from that "what if" sequence in Rugrats where she took over Tommy's home! Considering Oda is a huge fan of media& cartoons, I don't think it's a coincidence!😂
My shot in the dark is this; Swamp bro and Greed are both in contact with Blackbeard. Swamp bro uses his DF to consume a whole bunch of tech and machines and then once they escape Greed can make a mobile research station to provide Blackbeard with an unlimited cherry pie machine. Then she can chill out at Hachinosu island with her reverse harem feeding and doting on her
two things: 1.- Kidd flashback was on a SBS because he's not the kind of person who gets sad moments where you can fit that on a manga, Kidd is a: angry or b: being an arrogant prick, he's like Zoro and his family, Zoro dossen't care about that so it will not be on the manga 2.- Kidd, Killer and whatever is left from his crew will be back and they will help Luffy, but not because they want to Luffy becomes the pirate king but to prevent that Shanks becomes the king.
Idk who is on Blackbeard's ship, or what they intend to acquire out of all the chaos. However, assuming Luffy & the others bump into them, this could be an opportunity for them to learn about Koby, Law, and Pudding. But the same time, I can't tell whether Garp wants help from another Emperor (whether grandson or not), since he never expressed any gratitude towards Shanks!
I think you hit the nail on the head regarding Shanks in the last video. He uses his future sight and sees sacrificing himself as the only option. Maybe some kind of call back to chapter 1 with Luffy. Just can't see him becoming the final boss or some kind of villain, yes he is crazy strong and scary now I suppose but ultimately he has a grand plan (something I think started when Roger came back from Laugh Tale, I think Shanks clearly knows what's up or has an inkling) and has no patience for people (Kid, Blackbeard et al) messing with it.
How serious was kaido then ? - He didn't use his strongest move from the get go when he could have. - He refused to dodge that last punch when he could had done so.
I think we would be, because Shanks is an entirely different beast than Kaido. Kaido also let Kidd live far longer than was wise. Luffy was just someone who was more aware of how he had to get stronger, and also had that ability to draw just the right Allie’s to his side so that he could actually get stronger in that specific way. There are some aspects of fate protecting Luffy at times, but Kidd lacks more than just the protection of fate compared to Luffy. If Kidd was the main character, he wouldn’t have a run in with Shanks at his power level, that would be the hand fate has the play.
York might join the Blackbeard Pirates, but don't forget that the 10 Titanic Captains are all characters already affiliated with Blackbeard, not a prediction for the future or such like that. So if she joins, then she either won't become a Titanic Captain, or the Straw Hats needs 2 new members on the ship for a proper 1v1 Scenario for all of them.
Kid is alive!!! Just like when Big Mom first tried entering wano and failed, she ended up on a random spot on the island. The same will happen with Kid & Killer BUT... Kid will find an ancient weapon that can only be controlled by his devil fruit. Maybe a new ship?!?!
Funniest thing is that Merry is the name of the goat/sheep butler in Usopp's village. So... butt-ler? :DDDD Going Merry/Merry-Go is the actual name of the ship. XD
I think S-Snake having boa’s blood and devil fruit makes her more sentient. S-Bear might turn out to be more human too Probably when S-Snake sees Luffy again or when S-Bear sees Bonnie, or maybe looks into Kumas memories
Giving S Snake her own will makes since as her template is one of two explicitly confirmed Conquerors among the Warlords. Yes, Mihawk can be considered one as he was known to clash with Shanks the same way Roger and Newgate (two Conquerors themselves) were shown to. However, until he shows it off or is stated by a credible source to have it, he remains in the implied (if not heavily so) pile, along with our Long Nosed gods and poorly assembled clowns.
I wonder if Blackbeard is so dangerous to Shanks because Blackbeard's three souls can have three different intents at the same time, causing confusion for Observation Haki masters.
Nah, doesn't make sense. When Shanks saw what Kidd was going to do, he not only saw what Kidd was going to do but he also saw what happens to the other people. Hence, the future is a composite, a full picture of all involved.
7:08 So you mean S-Snake is pulling similar shenanigans to Kuma back on Sabaody "I dealt with them, just as you asked boss" only killing Pythagoras because she had to
Maybe the reason S-snake is more human is because some parts of Boa’s emotion was taken when the lineage factor for the mero mero no mi was extracted. And this only happens to natural devil fruit users excluding kuma since he gave up his emotions.
S-Shark and S-Hawk would be the same, then, because the holders of both of those fruits are still alive and have strong emotions too. Especially S-Shark's original holder.
@@AngryGerbils Oh, THAT'S what they were trying to say. It may just be me being sick and not fully getting the way it was worded but I thought they were meaning the devil fruits themselves being imbued with genetic memory, which I guess they were, just in a different way to how I was thinking. XD
I was at work yesterday, and randomly threw out the question, "what if we have blackboard vs shanks, and we see blackboard is winning. Then luffy shows up, sees shanks struggling, and takes his hat, puts it on shanks's head and tells him to watch that, he will come back for it.
I'm pretty sure Ace's mom died shortly after Ace's birth. But yeah her having a D in the name and being the woman Roger has fallen in love with makes her a potential character we need to know more about in some flashbacks. And it's weird that even if we have met several members of Roger's crew or people that have known him nobody has ever spoken about Roger and Rouge's relationship
@@lordfreezer5631 I mean that we are going to get info about something that she did back. I dont think she will be alive as we only see people surviving if they die on screen like sabo, saul and pell
Yea the Ds all have plot armor till the 2nd to last or last arc imo they will be pivotal in the endgame and we may get info on robins dad more so than ace's mom from saul, what if robins dad is a giant from elbaf🤔
I feel like now's the time to revisit this. If we're not including the Warp power, and assuming the timeline of everything is roughly happening at the same time, then we've narrowed down the Blackbeard ship to either Catarina or Laffitte right?
just saying it, it makes a lot of sense seeing how Shanks' crew are so laid back 90% of the time. They have absolute confidence on how strong their captain really is compared to the other individual (be it marine or pirate) around the world at the moment.
unless i see shanks face tank a thunder bagua and be 100% fine i dont see how shanks is so much stronger but i see kaido tanking Divine departures not unharmed sure but still in the fight
@@axtonxequaln5479 yeah shanks so far feels more like an evasion tank. maybe he can’t eat as much damage as kaido or mama can, but good luck hitting him when he can see 10 seconds into the future. katakuri could only see a few seconds, and nobody could touch him
not saying Shanks is stronger than Kaidou or anything. we will never know what exactly happened but seeing how Kaidou got intercepted whilst going to marine ford with no harm done to both side we can see how they have mutual respect for each other. and even Kaido (and Shiki too I believe) admitted that for a time, Roger was the strongest.
@@axtonxequaln5479 Not really. Kaido (and Big Mom) are obviously way more durable, they were monsters since childhood after all. But because a character can tank a lot doesn't necessarily means he is stronger (I personnally don't have an answer, just waiting to see an actual fight from Shanks)
I think the reason why shanks 1 shot kid while big mom lost to kid and law, is because big mom was playing with her food until it became too strong to ignore, and shanks went full monty from the beginning.
Bro Liam is my favorite OP TH-camr. This video was full of stuff I didn’t even think about and made me think about all the things that are happening in the world of OP. Great content man, thank you🙏🏾
This arc is becoming one of the best in one piece I swear… makes me think of water 7 by the fact there’s mystery and it’s very hard to speculate what comes next
Spot on about diff between Shanks and Kaido. Ifl Shanks shows what a Yonko could be capable of if they had Shanks's planning, temperament, skill and strategy. Usually BM and Kaido are prob used to just showing up and winning or whatever. Shanks is the complete package 💯 He even tells his crew not to underestimate growth of youth. Kaido and BM were constantly writing off members of Worst Gen and saying how they're kids playing pirates and brats that aren't ready. But not Chad Sigma Shanks. Shanks represents when physically powerful also have a strong and sharp mind. Truly dangerous combo 🥶
Kids defeat might not be the end for him , this can be a very good opportunity for some character development for kid Just like luffy had after getting being defeated by kaido or at marineford 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Didn't the narrator said the straw hats got annihilated too when they were all separated on sabaody by kuma ? If yes, Kidd and his crew definitely aren't done, but may go train to participate in the final arc or smt
If it was sooner I’d say yea but we closer to the end then the beginning there ain’t that much time for people especially for those that aren’t part of the main cast
@@royjones0824 yeah it feels late ,we are currently in the endgame of one peice but still one peice actually has years before it gets completed oda can definitely fit in one microarc for kid in this
@@anm8990 i just hope oda's "big plans" for kidd wasn't just him being used to showcase shanks strenght, cuz like, I think we already kinda knew that shanks was like one of the most powerful pirates
I think the final members of the Straw Hats and Black Beard's crew will be a Vega Punk satellite. Black Beard gets York, Luffy gets Lilith. Every woman who has joined Straw Hats crew always came off as sketchy or shady at first so Lilith would be a good fit. Stussy and Boonie aren't Vega Punk satellites but one of them can join too.
I like the Marshal D Preach theories better. I like his ideas that Atlas was the true traitor… since she controlled the seraphim that turned York to stone. Noting that Atlas can shapeshift.
We do know that the Seraphim have not just the DNA, but also the fighting styles and to some extent the skills of the originals, but what else did they copy? Since the original Boa Hancock is in love with Luffy, perhaps S-Snake also has some form of attachment to him and by extension the Strawhats. Not enough to override her programming, but still enough to go as far as she can to help them.
The chapter made a point in that Kid's attack was "loading" for ten seconds so my best guess is that 10 seconds into the future is the scope of Shanks' observation haki. Also, the red hair pirates *DID* tell the kid pirates to hand over the poneglyphs before going into action.
I like to think that the crew that Newgate was on during the flashback at Marineford was a previous crew that the pirate with the dentures who captains the Social Club Pirates back in the day
I think Laffitte is the one going to EggHead. So he uses his powers and take control of the Seraphims (either his hypnosis works on them, or he can use it on York which in turn will order them to obey him).
But Shanks did ask for the Poneglyph rubbings. In 1076, when he left the bar on Elbaf, he ordered the crew to relay the message to Kidd: "He has two options, either surrender the rubbings and scram, or risk fighting me".
I want to point out that Blackbeard wanted to obtain the power of the Hancock's fruit, but he failed. Now, thanks to York, he has another chance in the form of S-Snake
But S-Snake doesn't have the copy of the fruit, just the green blood eith Hancock's lineage factor. Only zoan fruits can be fully replicated by Vegapunk's technology
Referring to the last statement, there is definitely one person who can fight shanks one on one and that is the one person who refuses to fight him because he views shanks as "too weak" with only one arm. Mihawk

It would probably be a situation where he found a way to steal a fruit from a still living person y’know cause Oda

8:25 the clashing future sight thing is like how a jedi/sith fight should be.
S-Snake definitely has humanity inside of her. Even Zoro made a statement saying that S-Hawk was more human than Mihawk. I think Oda is trying to relay to us that the seraphim will gain the power to control themselves later down the line. S-Shark has been completely silent and obedient, which is kinda like how Jimbei would be as a child im assuming. They are clones of people and to me they take after the original.
I think it would be fitting Luffy freed the seraphim from the control of everything and the world government loses ANOTHER source of power after losing the warlords
Adding fuel to the theory that Mihawk may indeed not be human but a blade
I mean Vegapunk himself consider clones to be human beings completely, look at Stussy for example
Imagine s-snake and handcock fighting over luffy
It definitely makes sense for the seraph boa considering that boa hancock is a conqueror after all. She never followed the gov’t’s orders until that one time it benefited her.
There’s definitely some shit going down. Every single chapter this arc has been insane.

I find it interesting that Blackbeard wanted to make a name for himself by targeting Luffy & Caribou was trying to do the same! Maybe he was trying to finish off what a certain someone had started
Picture Shanke and Mihawk engaged in combat, where they solely rely on their ability to see into the future to outdo each other. They stand their ground and shift in and out of future sight until they eventually become fatigued and decide to call it a draw. This was the battle that Whitebeard had alluded to, as he too possessed future sight and could perceive their movements even though they were motionless.

In retrospect it makes so much sense that the hostage-agents haven't gotten any food in days or even weeks, because York would have kept all the food for her self (even if she intended to feed them at any point I don't think she would've been able to resist the urge).
Blackbeard been making so many big moves this arc, i'm also still holding onto the theory that BB is a former experiment of vegapunk mabye he's Rocks' clone

@@Kilo1992 lmao 💀💀
Have anyone realized the poster behind him which cancels out kid after what happened between him and red-haired shanks.😂
There was a very good reddit post recently, about "The shock heard around the world" being an Ursus Shock from Kuma, spreading his memories to everyone on the planet. It might be a theory worth indulging.
Shanks may be the final boss but it’s not as the villain role. If anything it’s allowing the story to go full circle. He’s the final test to see if Luffy can be king.
i love the fact that shanks uses his former captains attack " divine departure" on kid and killer and TKO them both
My coworker threw out a theory in regards to Blackbeard having Law's fruit. In that Blackbeard knows about the immortality operation, get's Law's fruit, forces a lackey to do it, gets the fruit back, and eats it anyway.

This Moment for Kid is his Sabaody & Kaido Moment all in one that Luffy has had. It's the very condensed Version.
Makes sense that Aokiji is there.
First he helped destroy Ohara. Now he can help prevent something like that from happening again in Egghead.
I make one piece videos
I LOVE how in the background you have Kid crossed off. Like he was really going to be any real competition for Luffy.
I don't think Blackbeard will come to egghead. Garp is attacking his base right now so he has to fight garp in his base.
I don't think there's a powerscaling issue. I think people keep thinking that the emperor's stats are all the same.
Kaido - high attack max defense
Big Mom - high special attack max defense
Shanks - max attack (defensive stats unknown but if I had to guess I'd say he dodges/parries but if he gets hit he could be KO'd)
Blackbeard - max special attack mid/low defense (only going based on older fights where he was getting hit and KO'd incap or in a lot of pain could have leveled up)
The way I look at it they probably all had the same amount of stats but where they put them is very different. Both Big Mom and Kaido literally face tanked every attack sent at them (aside from like 1-2 dodges) they were so unconcerned with battle because they knew their durability was so high. I think Shanks is someone who ends fights in one hit. No Goku I'm gonna slowly build... just oh you wanna fight? ONE PUNCH! end which is why he has max attack
7:35 Now I cant help but imagine shanks doing the discombobulate thing. I bet that's how he'll defeat Blackbeard.
Maybe there’s a possibility if the original Warlord that was cloned if they had conquerors haki their seraphim would also gain the ability to unlock it? Meaning they can break the hold on the commands? Because S-Snake seems to be just playing a game, it doesn’t seem like she’s under control like the other ones.
I think York joining Blackbeard is a great idea to give Nami a fairly challenging opponent in SHP vs BBP upcoming clash.
i dont mind another female to join the BB pirates but I think she's gonna face Lafitte.
I think Lafitte is for Brook.
Both skinny north blue born guys with Hypno abilities and a stick as a weapon.

Katarina's collecting the heads of beautiful girls kind of screams a Nami opponent to me.
I prefer Robin but pretty sure Oda canonically wants Katarina to think Nami is the pretty one.
Robin's too strong but the ties to Ohara / etc do open a door to York being a real antagonist to Robin's entire story.
Nami doesn't need Blackbeard to have a new person join in order for her to get a fight.
Remember, the Blackbeard Pirates already outnumber the Straw Hats when it comes to the upper echelons of their crews.
So if York joins BB as a Titanic Captain, then Luffy would need 2 additional Straw Hat Crew Members if the purpose is for them to all get 1v1 matchups.
I just realized the gluttonous York resembles Angelica from that "what if" sequence in Rugrats where she took over Tommy's home! Considering Oda is a huge fan of media& cartoons, I don't think it's a coincidence!😂
I just realized that Swamp Nakama shirt could have a very short lived shelf life if Oda decides to reveal if Caribou has done bad things. 😂
My shot in the dark is this; Swamp bro and Greed are both in contact with Blackbeard.
Swamp bro uses his DF to consume a whole bunch of tech and machines and then once they escape Greed can make a mobile research station to provide Blackbeard with an unlimited cherry pie machine. Then she can chill out at Hachinosu island with her reverse harem feeding and doting on her
I literally came as I saw the colored shanks attack. What a time to be alive to see the first actual, full force attack from shanks
I make one piece videos
two things:
1.- Kidd flashback was on a SBS because he's not the kind of person who gets sad moments where you can fit that on a manga, Kidd is a: angry or b: being an arrogant prick, he's like Zoro and his family, Zoro dossen't care about that so it will not be on the manga
2.- Kidd, Killer and whatever is left from his crew will be back and they will help Luffy, but not because they want to Luffy becomes the pirate king but to prevent that Shanks becomes the king.
Idk who is on Blackbeard's ship, or what they intend to acquire out of all the chaos. However, assuming Luffy & the others bump into them, this could be an opportunity for them to learn about Koby, Law, and Pudding.
But the same time, I can't tell whether Garp wants help from another Emperor (whether grandson or not), since he never expressed any gratitude towards Shanks!
I think you hit the nail on the head regarding Shanks in the last video. He uses his future sight and sees sacrificing himself as the only option. Maybe some kind of call back to chapter 1 with Luffy. Just can't see him becoming the final boss or some kind of villain, yes he is crazy strong and scary now I suppose but ultimately he has a grand plan (something I think started when Roger came back from Laugh Tale, I think Shanks clearly knows what's up or has an inkling) and has no patience for people (Kid, Blackbeard et al) messing with it.
Kaido took luffy seriously from chapter 1026-27
And he was dead serious from chapter 1036-37 after started drunken modes
Kaido could have killed luffy in 1st interaction oneshot
@@saswatchoudhury3386 so he was not trying to kill luffy from chapter 1026 onwards?
I make one piece videos
How serious was kaido then ?
- He didn't use his strongest move from the get go when he could have.
- He refused to dodge that last punch when he could had done so.
Not that he wasn't serious, he got serious way too late, and even then was way too arrogant. Taking that attack head on was so unnecessary
7:25 When Kid says that he will blast them all in 10 seconds flat, Oda clearly clarifies that Shanks future sight is 10 seconds ahead.
I like to believe that Oda gave Killer a smile fruit so he could have a way for Killer to drown
Shanks discombobulated kidd into next year
Shanks Doesn't Need To Take, Shanks Doesn't Need To Ask, The Poneglphy just.... That is A True Conquerer (EPIC🥰)
If blackbeard says room I'll be in shambles
If Kidd was the main character, we would not be surprised if he did to Shanks like Luffy did to Kaido on Wano after his defeat.
I think we would be, because Shanks is an entirely different beast than Kaido. Kaido also let Kidd live far longer than was wise. Luffy was just someone who was more aware of how he had to get stronger, and also had that ability to draw just the right Allie’s to his side so that he could actually get stronger in that specific way. There are some aspects of fate protecting Luffy at times, but Kidd lacks more than just the protection of fate compared to Luffy. If Kidd was the main character, he wouldn’t have a run in with Shanks at his power level, that would be the hand fate has the play.
Maybe S-snakes difference is that her original has conquerors and that transferred to her making the possibility of her at the end having free will
Crazy part is even if Blackbeard isn't on the ship he could very well show up ANYWHERE just because! 🤯
York might join the Blackbeard Pirates, but don't forget that the 10 Titanic Captains are all characters already affiliated with Blackbeard, not a prediction for the future or such like that.
So if she joins, then she either won't become a Titanic Captain, or the Straw Hats needs 2 new members on the ship for a proper 1v1 Scenario for all of them.
Shanks Did request Kids Poneglyphs. He sent Rock Star with the message b4 he even left the bar.
Hear me out: York is the 10th commander and is the reason Blackbeard is always one step ahead (Devil fruit encyclopedia etc)
maybe not is the 10th but i can see her being then 10th commander after egghead
Kid is alive!!! Just like when Big Mom first tried entering wano and failed, she ended up on a random spot on the island. The same will happen with Kid & Killer BUT... Kid will find an ancient weapon that can only be controlled by his devil fruit. Maybe a new ship?!?!
Whatever role Merry has? Man that is savage.

Funniest thing is that Merry is the name of the goat/sheep butler in Usopp's village. So... butt-ler? :DDDD
Going Merry/Merry-Go is the actual name of the ship. XD
The fact that Shanks ignore the poneglyph and let it sink with the Kidd pirates. lol
I think S-Snake having boa’s blood and devil fruit makes her more sentient. S-Bear might turn out to be more human too
Probably when S-Snake sees Luffy again or when S-Bear sees Bonnie, or maybe looks into Kumas memories
Giving S Snake her own will makes since as her template is one of two explicitly confirmed Conquerors among the Warlords.
Yes, Mihawk can be considered one as he was known to clash with Shanks the same way Roger and Newgate (two Conquerors themselves) were shown to. However, until he shows it off or is stated by a credible source to have it, he remains in the implied (if not heavily so) pile, along with our Long Nosed gods and poorly assembled clowns.
I wonder if Blackbeard is so dangerous to Shanks because Blackbeard's three souls can have three different intents at the same time, causing confusion for Observation Haki masters.
I make one piece videos
Nah, doesn't make sense.
When Shanks saw what Kidd was going to do, he not only saw what Kidd was going to do but he also saw what happens to the other people.
Hence, the future is a composite, a full picture of all involved.
7:08 So you mean S-Snake is pulling similar shenanigans to Kuma back on Sabaody "I dealt with them, just as you asked boss" only killing Pythagoras because she had to
Maybe the reason S-snake is more human is because some parts of Boa’s emotion was taken when the lineage factor for the mero mero no mi was extracted. And this only happens to natural devil fruit users excluding kuma since he gave up his emotions.
S-Shark and S-Hawk would be the same, then, because the holders of both of those fruits are still alive and have strong emotions too. Especially S-Shark's original holder.
Jinbei and Mihawk don't have devil fruits, though...
@@AngryGerbils Oh, THAT'S what they were trying to say. It may just be me being sick and not fully getting the way it was worded but I thought they were meaning the devil fruits themselves being imbued with genetic memory, which I guess they were, just in a different way to how I was thinking. XD
I was at work yesterday, and randomly threw out the question, "what if we have blackboard vs shanks, and we see blackboard is winning. Then luffy shows up, sees shanks struggling, and takes his hat, puts it on shanks's head and tells him to watch that, he will come back for it.

@@Scroll62-Manga that's great for you mate 👍
I'm pretty sure Ace's mom died shortly after Ace's birth. But yeah her having a D in the name and being the woman Roger has fallen in love with makes her a potential character we need to know more about in some flashbacks. And it's weird that even if we have met several members of Roger's crew or people that have known him nobody has ever spoken about Roger and Rouge's relationship
@@lordfreezer5631 I mean that we are going to get info about something that she did back. I dont think she will be alive as we only see people surviving if they die on screen like sabo, saul and pell
Yea the Ds all have plot armor till the 2nd to last or last arc imo they will be pivotal in the endgame and we may get info on robins dad more so than ace's mom from saul, what if robins dad is a giant from elbaf🤔
I feel like now's the time to revisit this.
If we're not including the Warp power, and assuming the timeline of everything is roughly happening at the same time, then we've narrowed down the Blackbeard ship to either Catarina or Laffitte right?
just saying it, it makes a lot of sense seeing how Shanks' crew are so laid back 90% of the time. They have absolute confidence on how strong their captain really is compared to the other individual (be it marine or pirate) around the world at the moment.
unless i see shanks face tank a thunder bagua and be 100% fine i dont see how shanks is so much stronger but i see kaido tanking Divine departures not unharmed sure but still in the fight
@@axtonxequaln5479 bruh.. That made me think, idk but i see your point
@@axtonxequaln5479 yeah shanks so far feels more like an evasion tank. maybe he can’t eat as much damage as kaido or mama can, but good luck hitting him when he can see 10 seconds into the future.
katakuri could only see a few seconds, and nobody could touch him
not saying Shanks is stronger than Kaidou or anything.
we will never know what exactly happened but seeing how Kaidou got intercepted whilst going to marine ford with no harm done to both side we can see how they have mutual respect for each other.
and even Kaido (and Shiki too I believe) admitted that for a time, Roger was the strongest.
@@axtonxequaln5479 Not really. Kaido (and Big Mom) are obviously way more durable, they were monsters since childhood after all. But because a character can tank a lot doesn't necessarily means he is stronger (I personnally don't have an answer, just waiting to see an actual fight from Shanks)
I think the reason why shanks 1 shot kid while big mom lost to kid and law, is because big mom was playing with her food until it became too strong to ignore, and shanks went full monty from the beginning.

Spot on about diff between Shanks and Kaido. Ifl Shanks shows what a Yonko could be capable of if they had Shanks's planning, temperament, skill and strategy. Usually BM and Kaido are prob used to just showing up and winning or whatever. Shanks is the complete package 💯 He even tells his crew not to underestimate growth of youth. Kaido and BM were constantly writing off members of Worst Gen and saying how they're kids playing pirates and brats that aren't ready. But not Chad Sigma Shanks. Shanks represents when physically powerful also have a strong and sharp mind. Truly dangerous combo 🥶
Who else loves black beard and wanna see him and York have a cherry pie eating contest
That would be a fun cover story lol
Zoro doesn't 😂
The only group I can see somehow beating the red hair pirates is the Cross Guild, I think the Cross Guild is really underrated
Kids defeat might not be the end for him , this can be a very good opportunity for some character development for kid
Just like luffy had after getting being defeated by kaido or at marineford 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Didn't the narrator said the straw hats got annihilated too when they were all separated on sabaody by kuma ?
If yes, Kidd and his crew definitely aren't done, but may go train to participate in the final arc or smt

@@royjones0824 yeah it feels late ,we are currently in the endgame of one peice but still one peice actually has years before it gets completed oda can definitely fit in one microarc for kid in this
@@anm8990 i just hope oda's "big plans" for kidd wasn't just him being used to showcase shanks strenght, cuz like, I think we already kinda knew that shanks was like one of the most powerful pirates
I have a theory that conquerors Haki users, when cloned, might be able to overcome the control built into them.
I think the final members of the Straw Hats and Black Beard's crew will be a Vega Punk satellite. Black Beard gets York, Luffy gets Lilith. Every woman who has joined Straw Hats crew always came off as sketchy or shady at first so Lilith would be a good fit. Stussy and Boonie aren't Vega Punk satellites but one of them can join too.
I like the Marshal D Preach theories better. I like his ideas that Atlas was the true traitor… since she controlled the seraphim that turned York to stone. Noting that Atlas can shapeshift.
I kinda feel kuzan might join the strawhats after this arc
I find the way you crossed Kid out of your poster hilarious after I first noticed it lol 😅
What if Blackbeard made Law perform the immortal surgery on him AND then took his DF
Law would rather kill himself then help Bb
We do know that the Seraphim have not just the DNA, but also the fighting styles and to some extent the skills of the originals, but what else did they copy? Since the original Boa Hancock is in love with Luffy, perhaps S-Snake also has some form of attachment to him and by extension the Strawhats. Not enough to override her programming, but still enough to go as far as she can to help them.
The chapter made a point in that Kid's attack was "loading" for ten seconds so my best guess is that 10 seconds into the future is the scope of Shanks' observation haki.
Also, the red hair pirates *DID* tell the kid pirates to hand over the poneglyphs before going into action.
I like to think that the crew that Newgate was on during the flashback at Marineford was a previous crew that the pirate with the dentures who captains the Social Club Pirates back in the day
I think Laffitte is the one going to EggHead. So he uses his powers and take control of the Seraphims (either his hypnosis works on them, or he can use it on York which in turn will order them to obey him).
It's preety good coincidence when finally shanks decided to make move he's moving away from elbaf a place which soon to be center of chaos.
But Shanks did ask for the Poneglyph rubbings.
In 1076, when he left the bar on Elbaf, he ordered the crew to relay the message to Kidd: "He has two options, either surrender the rubbings and scram, or risk fighting me".

S-snake absolutely will despise world nobles since its been hinted that there memories could be shared through their bloodline elements
Yep
I want to point out that Blackbeard wanted to obtain the power of the Hancock's fruit, but he failed. Now, thanks to York, he has another chance in the form of S-Snake
But S-Snake doesn't have the copy of the fruit, just the green blood eith Hancock's lineage factor. Only zoan fruits can be fully replicated by Vegapunk's technology
I said the power of her fruit, not exacly fruit itself.
Make sense with S-Snake Blackbeard can use her for whatever he plans he has
I think the reason that there's so much focus on S Snake is because that she's most likely gonna defect and ally with Luffy's side.
100%
Referring to the last statement, there is definitely one person who can fight shanks one on one and that is the one person who refuses to fight him because he views shanks as "too weak" with only one arm. Mihawk
