Oda is the only who can decided whether Elbaf is an "Egghead-lenght" arc or a mega arc like Wano or Dressrosa. But anyways, my point is, if Elbaf's gonna be a mid-sized or short arc, does the heaven realm still fit? I personally think yes, but not in a fleshed out way. Maybe it will be mentioned and have some lore with it.
Or if Elbaf is a mega arc, heaven realm chapters are inevitable.
But what's really in it? I don't know if this like a crazy statement but I subjectively think the heaven realm is more of like a symbolic thing and no one is living in there (as far as I know). I think it would just be a ceremonial place that the giants revered as sacred. There could be structure or statues there about the sun god or other gods.
But what are your personal takes on what inside the heaven realm and will we ever see it?
I think I found out something, like, it's a power, dark, dark fruit. I think he used that power to hold on the another power, because whenever you consume two devil fruits in one body, it will explode. So what if his dark-dark power have too much power that it can compress the other devil fruit power until he want to use it.
May need a reminder but it feels like it’s been a few arcs since choppers talked to an animal maybe since timeskip. But I feel like there needs to be a convo between Ratatoskr and Chopper. Maybe over the void century or something but at least maybe a conversation about what’s currently going on in Elbaph. Though this likely could be a plot convenience since Oda may drop that Chopper is the forest god and Ratatoskr would spoil it or may just create a writing inconvenience for him. Idk just some food for thought.
Now I know elbaf hasn't been bad or anything, and Sanji vs killingham looks really good so far!
But the possibility of the sommers match up feels so much better to me.
And no it's not because he hurts women while Sanji is nice to them
Its not because he has a mechanical heart while Sanji has a mechanical body even if that's cool too
Its sommers ideology itself, my favourite thing about the match up. Sommers entire love ideology preached the complete opposite message Sanji learned in wci. Earlier gaban was called the minister of love and this is why Luffy said he's like Sanji. Sanji facing sommers would redefine his views on love, he would not just love for the sake of it but genuinely start to preach it. Becoming the king of love unlocking acoc. In a way it's him defending his mother's sacrifice to him because she gave herself up for sanji the same thing sommers said why love is false. How can it be love if it results in pain. And Sanji would defeat him knowing that's what love is for, the development is Sanji preaching proper love an independent ideal. Something he can call king ship over which is the cause of his conquers haki. The question sommers proposes to the holy knights (or us the audience) is simple. How can love be real when it can be used to put people in pain. Zoro is sure as hell not going to answer this ideologically. Sanji however can very well do it, his existence alone arguably does. Sora is gone yes but Sanji came from that sacrifice and him defeating sommers and his evil shows what that love and sacrifice did for sanji. Making him a kind selfless man and develops his ideology and takes king ship of it.
Oda once drew what Davy Jones would look like in SBS (concept art). He looks a lot like Tonjit, the guy from Long Ring Long Island. That's where we first heard about Davy Back Fight. Maybe Oda gave us hint through that arc. Tonjit = Davy Jones, because the concept art look-alike. Stilts = Zunesha, because they walk the seas.
Searched but didnt find this..
Longshot but in gear 5 luffy is white, but the sun appears yellow. Luffy isnt illustrated wearing the hat in gear 5.
The straw hat is a yellow round circle.
I predict a future panel with Luffy losing in gear 5 and Shanks shouting put on the hat.
Also with objects having fruits recently, the hat probably does something.. like complete the transformation.
Try asking something not too important since if it was important, he would add it in the manga instead of the sbs.
A couple stuff I would ask:
What race is Charolette daquoise. He has purple wings.
Something like who named different locations in world like who is enie as in enies lobby or Yano
Where did minks live before getting on zunesha
Who is puddings or any other of big moms kids dads
Since there are some fishman based on fictional fish like the fighting fish fishman, are there anything like that for minks.
If there’s an azure dragon fruit, is there a white tiger, vermillion bird, and black tortoise.
What did the 5 elders, and holy knights look like as kids
What were the names of the other holy knights and holy blades on god Valley, I have a few that the cow skull guy is apart of the bavette family since bavette is a type of beef.
Can you give us info on bogard
Would a griffin devil fruit be a cat cat or a bird bird.
What happened to the rocks pirate with long claws, he was in the kuma god valley flash back and he wasn’t in the Loki god valley flash back. And was he the former captain of Kuro’s crew
If Hanafuda collected ancient zoans, did he ever eat one himself.
Can you give us info on the rocks pirates
What is the name of a mink and giant hybrid and are the yeti cool brothers them.
What kind of sea animals are minks based on, I seen fish and mollusk. But does that mean there’s a seaslug fishman or a clam fishman. Is it all sea life. Like crabs, coral, jellyfish, urchin marine iguana . Also since there’s ancient giants, are there ancient fishmen like a tully monster fishman or ammonite fishman, this goes with minks too, sabertooth mink, ground sloth mink.
Why is catviper yellow, normally minks are the color of the animal they’re based on.
What used to live in the dials are they related to den den mushi
I like pizza rolls
Are Onis the buccaneers of ancient giants. Buccaneers are human and giant, but are onis human and ancient giant. If Lola did go with lokis proposal, would they have a oni together
In an earlier sbs, you said the nationality of shop is African, however that’s too vague what specific country in Africa would Ussop be from.
Is merry from syrup village half mink.
What’s the official name of the guy who asked Roger that important question.
On a map you once made, you had a one on the red line called corkwood. What is that place.
Lucci has a technique called rokugan where he buts two fist together and it makes a blast. Did Saturn use a technique like that when he killed that marine but with his eyes or was that just apart of his transformation abilities.
Is the war gods name elbaph.
Why did enma shrink. It was clearly bigger when oden had it.
What skill grade is then one guys sword next to garp during the kuma god valley flashback. Also what’s the guys name. I hear some people call him scopper Jaban.
Since earth is called blue planet, what is the moon called. Also what’s are all the planets in the system
Syrup village is apart of an archipelago, what are the other islands in the gecko archipelago also why is syrup village called syrup village
I can always think of more questions and put them on the comments
Also, why doneat this subreddit or r/one piece do a thing where we all bring up some questions we want in an sbs, and someone who can write in Japanese write a letter to Oda to ask some of the top questions
Should EOS Haki just be bigger black lightning?
If Haki is will, should endgame Haki really just be bigger lightning, slower walks, and more dramatic sandals?
I don’t think so.
If Haki is will, then the ultimate expression of Haki should be self-expression.
At the highest level, Observation, Armament, and Conqueror’s should all be required:
Observation to truly perceive the world.
Armament to truly touch it.
Conqueror’s to impose the self upon it.
When all three align perfectly, Haki should stop being generic force and become something personal. Not everyone’s final Haki should do the same thing, because not everyone’s will is the same.
A few examples:
Garp expresses finality: the soldier’s will to remove what must be removed.
Shanks protects the future, so his Haki removes threats before they reach what he is protecting.
Dragon is revolution, so his Haki changes the nature of what he strikes. Not merely destroying, but transforming.
Luffy is freedom, so his Haki releases what is bound: people, objects, even imposed seals or contracts.
Zoro is the swordsman’s version of this idea. His highest expression should not be “cut everything,” but the perfect choice of what to cut and what not to cut.
Koby is empathy. His Haki should touch the heart rather than crush the body — forcing people to feel what they are trying to ignore: the victim, the civilian, the cost of the order, the person standing in front of them.
That feels much more interesting than another power-creep tier.
Because if Haki is will, the final question should not be:
How hard can you hit?
It should be: Who are you?
Hey everyone, I’m a German fast growing Content Creator for One Piece theories, running BigNewsMorgans (@newsmorgans) on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube Shorts. I would like to bring my theories over to the English community.
Guys, I need your help this time. I have a theory that keeps almost working, but I can’t get the last piece to fit.
The Pattern
In One Piece the same structure might keep repeating. One Joyboy, one Sadboy, and one Deadboy.
Quick note on where “Sadboy” comes from: in Chapter 1085, while Sabo is in the Pangaea Castle throne room trying to rescue King Cobra, Cobra reveals that the Nefertari royal family also carries the “D.” initial. This prompts Sabo to remember a childhood conversation with Ace and Luffy. He had mentioned that both of his sworn brothers shared the middle initial “D.” while he didn’t have one. In true brotherly fashion, Ace laughed and told him he could just be “Sa D. Bo” so he wouldn’t be left out. Sad Boy.
Luffy is the Joyboy, the carrier of hope. Sabo is the Sadboy, lost his memory, lost his brother, carries the grief ever since. Ace dies right in front of both of them. The timing is perfect, all three are active at the same time, and when the Deadboy dies, something passes to the Sadboy. In Ace’s case the Mera Mera no Mi.
The Second Example
I go even further back, the pattern might repeat here. Joy Boy was the Joyboy of his era. Imu, in my theory, was the Sadboy, not a born villain, but someone who lost something and never processed it. And the Deadboy was an ancient Lunarian, someone we may have already seen on the Elbaf mural. Just like Sabo ate Ace’s fruit to carry his legacy forward, I think Imu did the same, stepping into the Lunarian’s body after his death to carry something of him forward.
The Third Case
Roger is the Joyboy of his generation. Whitebeard might be the Sadboy, the strongest man in the world but someone who never got what he actually wanted. And Oden dies, boiled alive but singing until the last second. Except the timing doesn’t work. Oden dies years after Roger. That’s not clean.
Where It Gets Complicated
The timing actually works much better with Rocks D. Xebec for the middle generation. At God Valley, Roger and Whitebeard were both present when Rocks fell. That fits. But then I hit a wall.
Where I’m Stuck
If the pattern holds, something should pass to the Sadboy after death. But Whitebeard already had the Gura Gura no Mi at God Valley. So he can’t be the Sadboy who inherited Rocks’ fruit. So who actually forms the real trio here? Is Roger even the Joyboy in this generation? Is Whitebeard really the Sadboy? What is the correct trio constellation for the Rocks generation?
I make my content in German, so I’m not expecting you to support me on socials but ofc I wouldn’t mind if you still do :) Happy to discuss or get challenged on any part of this in the comments.
Also a theory about Chopper and sugar
Personally, in my opinion, I want it to be Sabaody 2.0 but way worse. As the story progresses, the enemies are way more stronger but the stakes are somehow lower?? That's just my personal observation of the story so far. Imu shows up, I think he's the strongest character in the current story. So I would be so disappointed if he were defeated, or not be defeated but rather the Straw Hats and the giants have the upper hand.
This is not an original theory but Elbaf will be in ruins and Imu will actually defeat everyone and head back to Marie Geoise. I think the Adam tree will fall (caused by Luffy? Imu? Loki?). And since I wanted stakes in the story, I want long term, permanent injuries to some of the Straw Hats, like Usopp losing an eye or someone losing a limb. But either way, all I want is for Imu and demon friends to win this time, not because I hate our heroes but for Imu to be THE character that the story is portraying him to be and for the stakes!
Maybe Imu doesn’t like looking ugly LOL. Maybe Imu changed Joyboy’s face to be more like his own and then made the hair longer to look more majestic and match his own. He probably looks like Griffith from Berserk. He maybe added some other things too like maybe Lunarian genes to gain wings. Son 😭✌️ you ain't god. You're just Cavendish but the Void Century version.
Maybe, after this body is defeated, the face will turn back into Joyboy's face. The left eye is probably damaged permanently. Is Joyboy the eye-patched pirate?
Remember the weakness of Moria's shadows? It's salt, right? Now, what is Chopper's favourite thing to eat? Cotton candies, honeys, chocolate. Chopper likes sweets. Now what if Chopper's hands are covered in sugar and sugar is how you can counter Imu's abilities?
Edit: Maybe Chopper adds sugar to his rumble balls. So when he touches them, little sugar sticks to his hands.
In episode 415, after Luffy decides to help them statues like a true chad instead of sailing off, there is a shot of the three sisters staring in awe/shock/bewilderment/(I've run out of synonyms.). What's more interesting than that however is the fact that Boa Hancock is shaking, unlike the other two. Since the inhabitants of Amazon Lilly posses the unique trait of leaving this mortal plane behind when they fall in love, this has led me to believe that her shaking was her having a cardiac arrest from absolutely falling head over heels for the first guy that doesn't absolutely dive-bomb her standards. Now here's where it gets wild: She dies that instant. Think about it. Everything she's seen doing afterwards is just a combination of everyone around having mass hallucinations and her will. Also, hens don't have cocks. That sound like something you'd hallucinate from burning some highgrade weed. Alternatively since the hito hito no mi model Nika is basically just creative mode on crack, he could have just thought her back into existence because he wanted to free the stone statues so hard. Since the gist of Nika is freedom and joy, it would make sense for him to do allat just to free some stone. (His dumbass couldas just use 30% nitric acid and 70% alco... wrong fandom...)
P.s. I ain't know shit bout one piece, my ass just larping
The Ancient War: Long before the Void Century, the One Piece planet was ruled by ancient gods (like the Sun God Nika and the Water God Poseidon). They fought a cataclysmic war against the Original Demon. When the dust settled, the gods perished, but their raw wills manifested into the pure, original Mythical Zoan fruits (like the Nika fruit).
Imu's Power: Imu is not the demon itself—Imu is a human who ate the Original Demon Mythical Zoan Fruit. By using the demon's innate power of ultimate temptation, Imu created all the smaller, standard Devil Fruits to lure and trap humanity. Whenever a user of these standard fruits dies, their soul feeds back into Imu/the Demon fruit, while the fruit's power respawns elsewhere.
The Hindu Mythology Link: This perfectly explains the divine lineage of Luffy and Dragon through a massive parallel to Hindu mythology. Gear 5 Luffy represents the Sun God Nika, who mirrors Hanuman (the monkey deity who famously leapt to eat the sun thinking it was a fruit and similarly luffy who ate the sun in the form of fruit thinking it was a normal fruit and his technique named bajarang gun bajarang is name for hanuman).
Dragon as Vayu: In mythology, Hanuman's father is Vayu, the Lord of the Wind. In One Piece, Luffy’s father is Monkey D. Dragon—the man who controls storms and wind. This means Dragon possesses an ancient, god-willed wind Mythical Zoan fruit, preserving the divine father-son relationship of Vayu and Hanuman to blow away the darkness of Imu's stolen demon power!
What do you guys think? Does the Original Demon fruit soul-cycle make sense for Imu?
Personally i could see Oda keeping Gear 5 as the peak of Luffy's power and focusing on mastering it instead of introducing another Gear. But if Gear 6 does happen i hope it's more than just a stronger form i want it to have a completely new concept.
At the end of chapter 1187, we finally learned what has been holding Sanji back from unlocking his conqueror's haki. Gaban told him "[he] is burdened with uncertainty and has to become a king in order to harness it".
When Zoro got his CoC, it came with Enma "which can cut through to the bottom of hell", and using the sword infused with CoC, he called himself "King of Hell".
While it does seem a bit corny to me, I don't think it's out of the question that Sanji will name himself "King of Heaven" when he finally unlocks his CoC.
In the Norse mythology that includes Nidhoggr and Ratatoskr, there is an eagle who sits at the top of Yggdrasil. The squirrel, Ratatoskr, carries messages to and from the Nidhoggr and the eagle. We have seen two devil fruits representing those mythical creatures this arc.
Elbaph has three realms. The underworld where Loki had been chained up, the sun realm where most people live, and the heaven realm which we know basically nothing about.
It would make sense if there were a third fruit representing the eagle at the top of the tree, in the heaven realm.
If Sanji is to become the King of Heaven, I expect he gets something heaven related, the same way Zoro received Enma in tandem with his CoC upgrade.
I've never felt that Sanji or Zoro should/would get devil fruits, but it certainly isn't out of the question for Sanji to get one that allows him to fly, since that's already his unique schtick within the Strawhats.
It could be a different "upgrade", but if Sanji calls himself the King of Heaven, I fully expect there to be something waiting for him in the heaven realm.
